Texarkana, Ark., Feb. 20.-Ed Coy, the nej;ro who last Saturday evenine brutally outraged Mrs. Henry Jewell, a much-respected white lady, at her hous-e tbout four miles from this citv, waa carlureJ this morning and 13 now in eternity, having atoned in a horrible manner for his tearful crime. This morning Marshal Crenshaw, acrompanied by a email posse, went to Mr. Scott's house, where he was held, and look the negro in charge. He waa taken to th.9 residence of Henry Jewell and was promptly and fully UentiSed. When taken into Mrs. Jewell's presence be b aid to her: "Are thes the clothes the man had on?" Xo, but you are the rascal that assaulted me," paid, che. This afternoon at 2 :30 o'clock a crowd of a thousand people secured Coy from his captors as they were bringing him to the city. Up Broad-st. they marched with him, on through the liule city, and to the Iron Mountain roundhou.se. A large etake, to which had been fastened eome puy wires, was what they wanted, and it was found here. Up to this they brought the crying negro and in a twinkling he was securely bound. One of the mob advanced with a can of coal oil, which had teen secured from a neighboring house, and the crowd then knew what fate was in store for the negro. "Where's Mrs. Jewell?" was the cry irom many throats. "Here," responded a few voices on the edee of the crowd. "Bring her forward," was ordered by a man who eeemed to be master of ceremonies. The woman made her way through the crowd, which willingly made way for her, and in a minute was in front of the frightened negro. Without a word, the spokesman placed Sn her hand a torch. Mrs. Jewell looked at the negro, the torch and the spokesman and, falterinly, turned to the crowd. "No, no, apply it," was the cry as the woman was seen to faiter. The torch was applied instantly by the woman, who immediately turned and made her way through the crowd. The flames flickered up around the neprro'a legs and ho was soon enveloped, all the while yelling lustily. In seven minutes he was dead after the most excruciating acony. The good people of Texarkana deplore the necessity of mob law is the verdict tonight. But the opinion is general that Coy has been rightly eerved. When Mr. Jewell left his home on Saturday last after dioner to come to town for the transaction of eome necessary business he left his young wife with her babe in her arms in the best of health and ipirits, littJe dreaming when he kissed her good-by of the terrible fate that awaited her during Lis absence. Shortly after the husband's departure a negro appeared at the door and asked the whereabouts of Mr. Jewell and the unsuspecting woman informed him that he had eone to town." The negro gave his name as 'Paria and that he had some hogs to sell to Mr. Jewell. A considerable conversation was held between them and the woman thus had a good ODportunity while not under excitement to note tha general personal appearance of the negro. After the negro had gone Mrs. Jewell concluded to visit a neighbor half a mile distant and went to lock the door when the negro, who was in hiding, sprang from his. place of concealment, seized her by the throat, and, after a desperate struggle, Eucceeded in accomplishing his diabolical purpoee. Ife then dragged the fainting creature into the barn where he kept her for about an hour, assaulting her repeatedly. Finally, when he was making ready to go, be took up the gun which he car

ried, and. finally yielding to her pleadings, left her and disappeared in the wodds. When the husband returned home he lost no time in giving the alarm, and in a short time score3 of men were scouring the country in all directions, and during the night two negroes answering the general description given by Mrs. Jewell were jailed here, but when taken before her ehe pronounced them both innocent and they were discharged. The search proceeded without any relaxation and soon it was positively learned that the name of the guilty negro was Ed Coy and that he had gone north toward Little River county, Arkansas. Several posses at once went in pursuit in that direction and have been on his trail ever since. On Thursday a negro answering the general description of Coy was arrested and brought here over the Texarkana & TL Smith railway, and it was first believed by some that he was the guilty party. After a close scrutiny of his features, however, Mrs. Jewell pronounced him not the man, although the hat and suit of clothes he wore looked exactly like those of her assailant. Tbe prisoner explained this by Baying that he and Cor had been together on Sunday and Monday and at the latter's request they had swaoped clothes. Coy saying, ot course, that they were after him for some minor oflense. Thursday afternoon bloodhounds were telegraphed for and they arrived Thursday night from Hot Springs. Friday morning the dogs were taken out to the vicinity where the negro was known to be, but efTorts to use them were greatly retarded by a heavy rain on Thursday night and Friday. Last night prospects for the negro's capture began to look gloomy,indeed, it being announced that, in all probability, he had gotten out of the country, as the trail hud been lot. This morning, however, at an early hour a message came to the town from W. B. Scott, a farmer living five miles north of town, paying Coy was at the house of Fd Givens, a ncpro living near him, and asking for men to come out and arrest him. The dead man was a mulatto, thirty-two years old, weighed 150 pounds, and was bora in Harrison county, Texas. Up to the last hour before his death he declared that he was innocent. During a reporter's interview with him this morning he said he had been on the run eince last Saturday night, and jrave as his reason for leaving at that time that he was told that the sheri.T wns after him for gambling. Sunday morning Coy went to Littlo River county and Monday returned to a tie camp on the Texarkana & Ft. Smith railroad. At night he went up to Texarkana to William Yancey's house, intending to surrender, but was told by the netrroes that if ho did he would be lynched. Wednesday he went back to a house at the junction, and that n'ht returned again to Texarkana, going down the Texas Central road toward Iekalb. He returned once more to Texarkana laat night, he says, intending to surrender. Wh.n near the residence of Calvin Scott, however, he was captured by Mr. Scott and kept under guard by him all night JUDGE LYNCH'S COURT.

Des Moines, la., Feb. 17. Des Moines is talking of a veritable hero, whose name is John Green.

Eeforo an immense audience in Tomlinson hall Mr. Murphy said that one night in a hotel in Chicago he had a lonn talk with Ingersoll on religious subjects.

SHOT HIS WIFE'S LOVER.

TERRIBLE REVENGE OF AN INJURED HUSBAND AT CANNES. n Find Another In In the Apartment of III Faithless SpoD. and Prompt! Shoot Him General Opinion Among American Iltsldents Tbat lie Did tUe Itlghk Thing, Cannes, Feb. 18. The most intense excitement was caused in the large American colony here todav by the announcement that one of tbe most prominent visitors at the plsco, Edward Parker Ieacon, a native of the United States, had shot and killed a Frenchman named Arbeille. All sorts of stories were in circulation in retrard to the affair, but the affair 6oon resolved itself into a question of honor, a case where a man had avenged the death, the disgrace and infamy brought upon him and his children by his wife and her lover. The story is an old one. A handsome woman mated to a man whom 6he betrays, forgetting in her infatuation or fancy for" another man, her own reputation, their reputation, her husband, and bringing shame and sorrow upon her children. Mr. Deacon and his wife have been sojourning for some time past at the Hotel Splendide, one of the fashionable hotels of this fashionable watering-place. With them were their four children. There was nothing in the actions of Mr. Deacon to indicate that he had any suspicion that his wife was unfaithful to him; on tho contrary, they appeared to be as devoted to each other as is usual in the case of people who have been married for years. They followed the usual round pursued by society people hero, and up to the very moment of tbe occurrence there was no indication of the tratredy that resulted in the sudden death of the wife's paramour. It has transpired, however, since the shooting, that Mr. Deacon suspected that his wife waa unduly intimate with M. Arbeille, who was connected with the French diplomatic service, and he kept a close watch upon her actions. He saw or heard nothing that would positively confirm his suspicions untd last night. It appears that the room at the hotel occupied by Mr. Deacon was on tho first lloor. Sir?. Deacon slept in a room on the ground floor, and on the samo lloor were the apartments occupied by M. Arbeille. At midnight labt night Mr. Deacon, who was in his room, heard u peculiar noise in his wife's room which was immediately beneath his own. Ilia suspicions -Fere at once awakened and he descended the ftairs and listened at the door of his wife's room, lie heard her talking and then he heard the voice of a man replyiug to her. In a moment suspicion hecauie a certaintj and Mr. Deacon realized that h'.s wife had betrayed and disgraced lain. The knowledge drove him faiflv wild with anjrer and shame, but there wns method in his madness. He at once resolved to slay the despoiler of his family. He dashed up ntair.-i to his room and procured a revolver. Then with a feeling ot pathetic misery he bent over the bed wherein were sleeping' hin innocent littlo children and impressed upon their foreheads tho last kiss of his happy days. The eiht of them steeled in him his determination toavengeihe wrong that their mother had placed upon him and them. Leaving his children aleep, Mr. Deacon went to the room of the secretary of the hotel and aroused him, told him of tho condition of atlairs and requested him to accompany him to his wife' room. The secretary agreed and together they went to Mrs. Deacon's apartments. Mr. Leacon knocked on the door, but no one came, neither was any answer made. Mr. Deacon then forced the door and entered the apartment. He found his wife alone, and, though she made a desperate eli'ort to keep calm and asked him what brought him at that time of the night, he was not deceived. He at once proceeded to an adjoining room which opened from that in which hi.s wife hlept and there he discovered M. Abeille, wiio was crouching down and attempting to hide behind a chair. Mr. Deacon at once leveled ids revolver at the man and deliberately aiming, he fired three shots. Two of the bullets etruck Abeille, one taking effect in his arm and the other in his chest. The man, after gazing for a moment at the lifeless body of his deceiver, is said to have turned once more to his wife, who was shivering and trembling on her knees close to the spot where her lover lay, and to have 6uid in substance: "I have a mind to kill you as I have killed that dog. Killing is to gcod for you. You fdiould be reserved for a worso fate; you shall live to havo the linger of scorn pointed at you during the refct of your life. Never let me see your deceitful face again." She, at these words, gave a shriek and fell llat on her face. In tailing the guilty women had bespattered herself with somo of tho blood 01 her dead lover, and the first impression formed by the servants and guests, who appeared upon the scene, was that Mr. Deacon had killed his wife after killing her paramour. But she revived shortly after and sank upon the bed and piteously begged to be conducted to another room. The body of M. Arbielloin the meanwhile had been plf.cei in an adjoining apartment and Mrs. Deacon's four young children, who were stooping at the hotel with their parents, were conducted to another part of the building, where their father and kind friends did their best to pacify them It was evident fram the first that Mr. Deacon had the sympathy of everybody in tho hotel and that even the police ollicers were loath to interfere with him, for lie Mas allowed to pss the rest of the night at tho hotel without being taken into custody and he could have escaped with ease had ho so desired. Mr. Deacon, after shooting M. Abielle, is reported to have sent several cable messages to the Paris press and to have quietly submitted to arreßt. It is difficult to imncine the sensation this aff air has caused not only among American?, but among foreigners, Mr. and Mrs. Deacon were in the highest class of continental society. They were to be eeen at all balls, fetes, receptions, races, charitable meetings and other social gatherings frequented by the very best society on the continent.

THE STRUGGLES OF LIFE. Observation Mnde by riitl&nturoplo Lady of Indlannpolta. "I do not doubt Mrs. Peechers statements, really. I think the half was not told of their privations during those early years of labor and sacrifice for humanity," remarked a young minister's wife tome, during the course of a recent conversation, in which the subject and the charges made against Mrs. Henry Ward Peecher came up. "Only Goi and themselves know it all." "In these later years, when it is said ministers are better paid than formerly, most any preacher's wife could relate experiences that would give a second shock to those who now stand aghast in righteous horror over Mrs. Peecher's disclosures. The preacher and his wife feel that their mission is to make humanity happier, to help bear the cares of burdened souls. Therefore they do not relate publicly their own struggles. "There is no profession so dependent as the ministerial, and as the pastor waits the convenience of the brethren, he frequently hnils himself in embarrassed circumptances. If he makes his wants known he is accused of preaching just for money. "I well remember one cold Sunday nicht shortlv after our marriage, I sat silone waiting the return of my husband from his psstoral duties. I was like Martha of old, cumbered with many things, uppermost ia my thoughts was would he iret any money that trip. I had but one half bucket of coal and our pocketbook contained a lone, solitary penny. I had no assurance of our needs being supplied, only the promise, '.eek ye first the kingdom of !od and Iiis righteousness and ail these things shall bo added unto you.' " It is not always those that ask for aims that are most deserving or most needy. Many widowed gentlemen, wives and daughters in our city are tonight not on the street corners chatting to boon companions, but in the solitude of desolate homes, which, if perchance visited by a court of inquiry, would disclose little that betokened the thousand and one struggles that those who have f-een palmier days make to hide tho bugbear want from public gaze. Examine tiie clean but threadbare Carpet, darnel and turned; that unsightly patch that deftest lingers could not hide, placed so it would come under the old piano sole relic of bygone splendor. Ah ! who shall tel! of the heartburnings, the ineffectual makeshifts of those who tit and weap over their misfortunes, when hooe is dea 1 and the future a dreary blank? It is always the refined and sensitive poor who are most tho objects of true pity. Abject hunger and want staring them ia the face will scarce induce this class to make known their condition. My first venture out after a tiege of la grippe was yesterday morning. I had occasion to fctop in the transfer car while waiting for a friend. A lady, whom I had known for many years came in, she told me that herself and son, a young lad, were out of work; that their rent was due with no money to meet it, and said she, with tears in her eyes: "You know what nice furniture I used to have, its all mortgaged, and my watch touching her delusive chain is gone too, but oh!" whispered ehe, "no one knows this but you, among all my old friends." Fifteen years ago this lady was the fashionable young daughter of ono of Marion county's high othciai.. Iron-iiearted money hoarding cynics may endeavor by mathematical precision to Kolve the problem of the whys and wherelores in 8uch a case. The question is not why, but how shall we meet and provide for such contingencies? Our critic disposes of the matter entirely satisfactory to himself. Says he, "I give $10 every year to the Flower Mission" (should ba Flour Minion). Purely! And your conscience is at rest and you lie down night after night sleeping the sleep of the just, thanking God that you are not as other men because, forsooth, you gave the munificent sum of 810 for the cause of charity. And dou't deny it; you look to see your name announcing the'ftct in every paper in the city. Now, don't you know, or do you care, that the most worthy poor that walks tho earth would die from slow starvation sooner than apply to any charitablo organization for aid ? Happening in the Poston store I was accosted by a lady who, before her marriage, was a teacher in the city schools. She married a prosperous mechanic ami for awhiie all went well. Py united eLTort they purchased and paid for aco-n-fortabio home; but in an evil hour friends persuaded him to run for an office. He won the position but lost home, honor and manhood. His wife now takes in piain tew ing to buy them necessaries. A good lady last winter, seeing this woman's daughter, who is etriving to become a teacher, pass and repass her window daily on her way to school, with kind inquiries elicted the fact that the girl was wearing cotton undergarments and was insufficiently clad, stated the case to a menied friend, who cave her a goodly sum. Putting on her benevolent glasses she got the girl down town on some pretext, and taking her to the New York store purchased a complete outfit and sent her home to her mother.enjoiuing strict secrecy. We will not reveal any names as we are under a promise not to. Put we know, and God knowp, and wo just drop this little inci dent that you may rest assured there arepersons in our city who do not think it necessary to sound a gong or advertise in the daily papers every time they contribute toward the uplifting of humanity. Tliis woman has her rent to pay and the landlord stands not on the order of his coming. Crape on the door would not deter him from stalking in and demanding his money. Laßt month she had been Bick and didn't have it. Cold weather, too, with a deep snow on the ground. During her absence from home her few household effects were piled promiscuously on the sidewalk, returning she found the rooms empty, her two little children having sought refuge with a neighbor. Her husband at the corner saloon, drinking death nnd damnation at 5 cents a glass, his family homeless and without bread. Keaching home I found a lady whoso manner and bearing despite outward appearance betokened culture aDd refinement, a stranger and alone in a large city seeking work, upward of fifty years old, not strong, a soldier's widow. The granddaughter of Ohio's governor fifty years ago, had walked three miles to eee me, not having money to pay street car fare. It ia to be hoped that some philanthropic minds may in the near future see a way clear to devise ways and means whereby a large class of deserving unfortunates may be reached, from the struggling clergyman, who, with wife and little ones, oftentimes on uncertain and insufficient salaries, and who dare not let their needa be known lest a too critical "Christian brotherhood" accuse the "cloth" of misrepresentation or mercenary motives.

I have looked through it with Eome care, and eay sincerely that I am delighted with it. It ought to go in the hands of all our people. The young will receive instruction from it, and those advanced in life will be pleaded by the recollections it awakens. The people ot Indiana I think are not sufficiently aware of the real growth and greatness of their state. It re quires, in fact, but little study to ascertain, and not much effort to show, that Indiana according to area is the greatest and most productive state in the Union, aud possessed of greater and more extensive educational advantages than any other commonwealth of equal population in tho world. These facts should bo taught everywhere among our people. I fully believe in the doctrine of state pride, especially when there is a solid foundation for it. Such a publication as the one now before me is well calculated to inspire tho young and old alike of Indiana with just 1 and laudable sentiments of pride and j gratitude. It is indeed a most charming book. The likenesses, taken altogether, are the best I have ever seen in engravings of their character. Please accept my sincere thanks and believe me always very faithfully yours, What Senator Turple Snya. Indianapolis, Xov. 7, S. E. Morss, Esq., Indianapolis, Ind: Mv Dear Sir I have carefully read "The Popular History of Indiana," and have verified its data by comparison with older and larger works.
