EXPIATED THEIR CRIMES.

The Notorious Archer Gang; Lynched Lart Klght in the Court Yard at Shoals, Ind. 8pedal to the Sen tine L Shoals, Ind., March 1). The uotorious Archer gang, who have been confined in the county jail tor several weeks past under charge of murder, expiated their horrible crime at the handa of a de teraiiced mob at 12:30 o'clock to-night The mob marched quietly into town, direct ly to the jail, situated in West Shoals. When thejail was reached the keys were demanded, whicli were refused. "When the spokesman ordered them to go iu the front door waa battered down and the iron cell doors treated likewise. After gaining entrance and spending a short time with the doomed men they wer. tea out in tae midst ef the mob anol taken to the courtyard adjoining the jail. But few worda were exchanged during the entire performance. They selected the trees on which they were to be hung, when the noose was placed on their respective necks, and after exchanging a few parting worda concerning their crimes, from which no answer was received, the word wa3 given to haul up, and in a very few momenta the three lifeless bodies of John, Martin and Thomas Archer could be seen suspended in mid-air on the beauti ful maple trees fronting the Court house. The mob then quietly disbanded, leaving their victims in the position in which they met their doom. In a few moments after the mob had dispersed the court-yard waa filled with anxious parties seeking a glimpse of their lifeless forms. The people are wild with excitement. THE SHOALS TRAGEDY. Further Particulars of the Lynching of the Notorious Archer Uang Tuesday Night. Special to the Sentinel. Shoals, Ind., March 10. The triple hang ing last night has placed the town in a very high state of excitement. It was in one sense a surprise to many, this being the third attempt, and was said by one of the doomed men that "the Martin County men hadn't the sand to lynch anything." Thia was said while he was confined in the Washington jail, and the expression of his bravery was the principal reason they were reurn ed here. After the mob had completed their job last night they quietly disbanded, feeling that mob law was in this case justifiable and the only means of protection. They had scarcely vanished from sight when the Court-house bell announced by its tolling that the souls of Martin, Thomas and John Archer, father and son, were in eternity, and in a very short time a great concourse of people, eager to get a glimpse of the lifeless forms suspended from the small trees front ing the Court-house, had gathered, and were marching to and fro to the scene. The mob was partially foiled in their expectations as they no doubt expected their Tictims to make a confession before meeting their doom, but notjone word could be drawn from their dying lips in answer to the numerous questions put them. When marched from the jail amidst the mob not one word was uttered by them, I they meeting their doom as bravely as if innocent. The Coroner was called at a very late hour last night by the Sheriff to come and take charge of the bodies. He decided to postpone the Inquest until this morning, thereby giving all a better chance to view the remains. At present the courtyard is black with spectators, the Incoming trains bringing more. When the bodies were cut down the rope was cut up by the relic hunters. After examining the case carefully the Coroner decided that "they met their death by hanging at the hands of unknown parties." The relatives have not yet decided when or where the remains will be interred. They are now in the hand3 of the Coroner. To those who have been unable to obtain the full crime for which the Archer's were hung, perhaps a brief synopsis would be appreciated: The principal crimes with which they were charged, having been verified by both Lynch'a confession and the affidavit made by Mrs. Archer, are for the murder and disposal of the remains of Anderson Bunch 'and the robbing and fatal wounding of Stanford Freeman, an old and highly respected citizen of this county, in HS5 the former crime being committed in July, 1332. Lynch confessed that Bunch waa lured from his home for the express purpose of murdering him, in which he and the Archers shared an equal part. He stated that he was bound hand and foot, then taken several miles to a secluded spot, In Orange County, where he was treated in the most cruel manner, before it was decided in what way he should be disposed of, they deciding that he should be badly beaten with stones, after which, while utterlj helpless, his body was literally shot to pieces, then cut in two and buried in separate places in the swamps near by the exact spot Lynch located, and upon examination as he directed the halfdecayed hones were discovered. I The second victim of note was Stanford Freeman. As he was knowa to have con siderable wealth concealed about hia premises they had determined" to have it. All arrangements for the robbery were made,-' when U was decided that they atuck him

while feeding his stock; and make the demand boldly. If a refusal waa offered, he was to be killed on the spot.

The attack waa made near dusk one evening. Freeman made as strong a defense as possible with the only weapon at hand, a large club, but without avail, tha villains succeeding in shooting him twice in the loins. However, they failed to receive any booty. Freeman lingered in an unconscious condition for several days, when he died. Lynch made numerous other revelations of the felonious crimes they had committed, also involving parties yet at large, whom the authorities have hopes of capturing. For thia reason we withhold the publication of the facts further. He is now in the Davies3 County jail, to which place he waa removed yesierday. A rumor was afloat here to-day that the mob intended to lynch him with hia comradea, as they had four ropes in readiness. It is thought that the mob sup posed him to be confined here instead of Daviess County. The damage done to the jail is slight coopared with the first estimation made, although they effected their entrance without the aid of keys. The hall door is slightly damaged. The cell door leading into the corridor was damaged some. Keuna's Answer to Edmunds. Cincinnati Commercial Gazette (Hep.) Special.! Washington, March 11. The bombard ment which Mr. Xenna gave Mr. Edmunds out of Mr. Blaine's second volume was keenly enjoyed by many Republicans. A portion of the full text is as follows: "While I have this book in my hand I take the liberty of reading what the distinguished author says on the subject of the act of ISO!), which was passed pretty nearly by the same men who passed that of 1SG7, and of which he speaks as follows: 'The chief defenders of the proposition to suspend the act were Mr. Trumbull, Mr. Edmunds and Mr. Schurz. Mr. Ed munds, pressed by Mr. Grimes to furnish a good reason for suspending the act, replied that, "Owing to the peculiar circumstances that have attended the last a 1 ministration, it is desirable that there should be an immediate and gc. ral removal of the officehold ers of the couatry aa a rule, and as an agency for that removal, f u!ject to our approval when we niet again in confirmation of their ?r.?cessors, these bad men being put out. we are willing to trust the Executive wuh that discretion." Mr. Blaine proceeds: 'Coming from a Senator of the United States, this declaration was regarded as extrao' iinary. The 'bad men' to whom Mr. Edmonds referred were the appointees of Pre. lent Johnson, and every one of them b I been confirmed by the Senate of the Un ted States when the Repub licans rad mor than two-thirds 01 the body. If these appointees were 'bad men,' why.it was pe.-ioently and forcibly asked by the aggrieved lid not Mr. Edmunds sub mit proof of tht- :actto hia Republican associates and proi 'ire their rejection? He knew the accus i men declared much about their characters when their names were before the Senate as he knew when he sought, behind the protection of hia privi lege, to brand them with infamy. 'To permit this to be confirmed in the silence and confidence of an executive session and then in open Senate, when their places were wanted for others, describe them as 'bad men' seemed to them a procedure to not be explained on the broad principle of statesmanship, or even on the common law of fair dealing. Within the eight months next ensuing the President would probably make more removals and appointments than for the remainder of his term, and it was just for thia period that Mr. Trumbull, Mr. Edmunds and .Mr. Schurz urged that the law be made inoperative inoperative in order that removals of Demo cratic othce-holdera for good cause, and for no cause except tnat they were Democrats, mijiht in everyway be expedited.' "There ia much in this chapter relevant to the particular feature of this controversy which I should like to read, but I do not desire to take the time to do it. I Will, however, read the closing paragraph, which I commend to those who aided in the enactment of the law of 15G7, and so soon after participated in the enactment of the law of l.w!. Concluding a passage or that subject, Mr. Blaine says: 'Casting c 11 all political disguises and personal pretenses, the simple truth remains that the tenure of office law was enacted lest President Johnson snould remove Republican otlice-holders too rapidly, and was practically repealed lest President Grant should not remove Democratic office-holders rapidly enough." Laughter. "The Senator from Vermont was in Congress when both these laws were passed. He gave his very active adherence to the proposition of the first one, and then proposed to suspend for eight months the act of 1S67 by the act of 13('J. He it was, I think, who made the motion to reccommend the bill providing for the suspension, and it waa recommitted, and the bill reported was rapidly pessed with only a slight amendment. I want to do that Senator the justice, however, to show you to-day the consistency, the absolute and perfect consistency, of his support of the act of 18C7, and. his support of the modification in the act of 1SG9. Referring to the debate in 1367, 1 find him making this declaration : 'But the committee have recommended the adoption of this rule respecting the tenure of office as a permanent and systematic, and, as they believe, an appropriate regulation of the Government for all administrations and for all time.' This was in 13G7 'for all administrations and for all time.' 'All administrations,' you see, were not broad enough to cover it, but 'for all time' the law was to be enacted; and still that proposition was not broad enough. The Senator, on another day in the course of the debate, made use of thia language: 'I do not, therefore, choose to submit to the imputation for a single moment that there is, either in this bill or out of it. any attempt to advance anybody's political views whatever, or to aid anybody's friends.' That was in 1W7. I read now from the Globe for March. 13C9, page 107, and from a speech by the Senator from Vermont, in which he fays: 'Now, what do we propose to do? We propose, in order as we had hoped to meet the views of our own political friends who had seen, or thought they had sf en, pratical difficulties in administration under this law, to give, by an act of penerons confidence in the present Executive, to him during the next recess of Congress a complete power to sweep out of office the persons who now hold it,' ' Oratorical Contest. LiKxiiroTocr, Ind., March 14. Friday eventhe students of the common schools of this (Lexington) township held an oratorical contest in the Lexington school building. The bouse was crowded, and the affair, under the management of Professors Shea and Fortune, was a decided success. A prize of $10 for the best oration was awarded to Miss Florence Meloy, and $5 for the best declamations waa given to Miss Annie Murphy and Maggie Lamman. Different members of my family have used Athlophoros for neuralgia, and have not been troubled with the disease since. I think it will do all that you claim it will. I send for another bottle.

The absence of the Emperor and Empress, of course, detracted from the brilliancy of the Hatschlos' ball, which closed the court festivities for the season. Between the dances there was much talk of a scandal in high life, just made public by the Berlin papers. A Countess, famous for her beauty and her jewels, went to a ball given by a great State functionary the other night, wearing a superb diamond dove in her hair. The splendor of her diamonds excited the jealousy of a rival beauty, who, oh pretense of arranging the Countess' head-dress durinc the evening, contrived to loosen the ornament, which presently dropped on the floor. Reaching home, the Countess missed her diamonds. Her cook, meeting her rival's maid next morning, mentioned tbe matter. "I have seen an ornament just like the one you describe," said the maid, "in my mistress' writing-desk." An hour later a detective, disguised as an oflictr, tetit in his card to the aristrocratic pilferer. Sje received him languidly reclining on a sofa, and asked tbe visitor, rather frigidly, to explain bis bnsiness. He explained. In an instant her languor vanished. "It's false!" she exclaimed, starting to her feet-and instinctively turning toward the writing-desk. Before sbe could reach it the detectivepulled open the drawer, and out fell the missing diamonds. The lady's husband was called. The wife, finding it impressible to deny the theft, confessed everything. "i was madly jealous of the Countess," she said, "but did not mean to tteal the diamonds. After loosening the ornament I saw it fall. I waited till the Countess left and then put the jewels into my pocket." The husband is moving heaven and earth to hush up the scandal, but unless the Kaiser himself interferes, or it can be proved that tne fair delinquent was out of her mind when she committed the theft, the affair will have to go into the police courts, and one of the noblest families in Berlin will be dishonored.
