Burned Alive.
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 7.—This
forenoon the occupants of the Pol-
vin block were startled by the
piercing screams of a worn.in.
Rnshing into the hall an appalling
spectaclo met their view. A wo-
man was in the room whose cloth-
ing was a mass of flames, while she
was writhing and shrieking with
great agony and pain. Kind hands
extinguished the blaze as soon as
possible, but it was too late. The
victim was a crisp from her ankles
to the top of her head. The best
medical aid proved unavailing,and
the unfortunate woman soon died
from the effects of her awful 1 acci-
dent. The name of the victim is
Mrs. Beil Fulk. They used a gaso-
line stove and having occasion,
Mrs. Fulk filled the the reservoir
and lighted the receiver. She
doubtless spilled some of the in-
flammable substance on her dress.
There was a slight flash and her
clothing was on fire, having caught
from the vapor.
A Marriage Precipitates Sectional War.
Franklin, Ga., Oct. 7,—The
seventh district of this county is in
arms over a marriage which took
place on Saturday. Farmer Buck-
alew has a daughter, Minnie, for
whom he had picked out a hus-
band. The lady preferred a young
man named John Adams, and
when forbidden by her father to
receive his attentions she met her
lover clandestinely. Tnls all went
well until the early part of last
week, when Buckaldw, carrying
his rifle, suddenly came upon the
young couple at their trysting
place. He blazed away at once on
young Adams, who escaped
through the woods under Are.
Adam’s friends took up his cause,
alleging that he was a good enough
man for Buckalew’s daughter, and
before daylight on Friday morning
a party stormed the Buckalew
mansion and captured the girl.
She found her lover waiting for
her at a convenient place. The
whole party armed to the teeth,
made way to this place to procure
a license for the marriage. As the
girl was under age, only 14, the
license was refused. The party
then drove across to Carrollton,
the lovers In a wagon, while the
other members were on horseback,
with rifles ready for action. In
Carrollton the necessary papers
(were secured and the marriage
>k place. Since then the whole
neighborhood has divided into fac-
lons, and several bloody fights
ve taken place.
Murdered While Asleep.
Clarksville, Tenn., Oct. 7.—
News has jnst teached here that
one of the most villainous assassin-
ations ever perpetrated in this
(Montgomery) county was com-
mitted at Shiloh Post office shortly
before 3 o’clock Saturday after-
noon. The victim was Mr. John
T. Nolan, a wealthy tobacco plant-
er, distiller and eneral farmer.
Two negros, Allen McCullom and
Harper Jordan, were arrested and
placed in jail here, charged with
having committed the murder.
Mr. Nolan, on Friday, went to his
blacksmith shop, laid down upon a
work bench and soon fell asleep.
While in this helpless condition he
was fired upon, the ball entering
the right side just below the nip-
ple, and ranging inward. McCul-
lom and Jordar were working in
the shop at the same time, and are
believed to have committed the
deed. The murder has created-in-
tense • excitement in the vicinity

been the trouble,
a married man and seems to have
had no connection with the trouble
except in behaif of his brother.
Both the Beards were arrested and
are under guard. They belong to
a large and respectable family re-
siding near Bradfordville. There
are contradictory statements as to
who fin d the first shot. All three
had pistols out.
Peppered with Buckshot.
Sanannah, Ga., Oct.' 7.—Tom
Padgett is lying in jail at Staten-
ville, with four buckshot in his left
arm, in the region of the elbow,
which fractured the bone in sever-
al places. Six other shots passed
through his clothes. Dr. Johnson,
who is attending the wounded man
fears that amputation will be ne-
cessary. Padgett was on trial In
Echols county for murder, and was
on his way to prison in charge of
Sheriff Herndon and Messrs. Char-
ley Thompson and Jack Weaver,
when he made a dash
whore the crime was committed,;Thomp80nj wV^ve/eMh'luX
and a report reached here this
evening that a mob was organizing
for the purpose of lynching the
negroes.
A Sensational Kentucky Tragedy.
Lebanon, Ky., Oct.7.—A highly
sensational tragedy occurred on
the street here to-day. Clem Raw-
lings, a justice of the peace of the
Bradfordv>lie district, was shot and
instantly killed. The annual court
of claims met this morning, and
Rawlings was Among the justices
in attendance. Court adjourned
for dinner and Rawlings went to
the Veranda Hotel, where he en-
tered the parlor. Four of his ac-
quaintances, Edgar Beard, Volney
Hocker and two young ladies,
were sitting with him. A quarrel
soon arose between Rawlings and
Beard, and the shooting began in
the parlor near the door leading in-
to a hall. The parties passed
along the hal1. out into the back
yard and thence to the street
known as Spalding avenue. Sev-
eral shots were fired along the
way.
Frank Beard, a brother of Edgar,
was in the dining-room v hen the
tiring began. Finding that his
brother was Jngaged he ran out.
When the parties reached the
street Edgar Beard was in front,
pursued by Rawlings, who in turn
was pursued by Frank Beard, all
running at a smart pace in the di-
rection of the railroad. Frank
Beard gained upon Rawlings, and
when within three or ftmr feet of
him fired. Rawlings fell dead, the
ball having enterbd at the back of
?he neck and come out just below
the mouth.
Rawlings was an umarried man,
a son of Hon. Anson Rawlings, for-
merly a member of the legislature
from this county. Until recently
Clem Rawlings was a merchant at
Bradfordville. Edgar Beard is al-
so unmarried, and he and Clem
wlings are said to Hfcve been
1 suitors for the hand of one*of
ourg ladies who were j,

a load of buckshot after him, and
the sheriff emptied both barrels of
his gun, which were loaded with
small shot, after the fleeing man.
Padgett fell to the ground under
this fusilade and was re-captured.
Tom Padgett is under arrest
charged with the waylaying and
killing of George Hunter, his brotn-
er-in-law,wh<» whs shot down on
the the road in Echols county
about three years ago. Hunter
about a year before that time, shot
and killed Tip Padgett, Tom Pad-
gett’s father. Tip Padgett rode up
to Hunter’s front gate and shot
Hunter down in his yard, because
Hunter’s dog had been killing his
hogs, or at least Padgett so charged,
aud whereupon Hunter shot and
instantly killed him. Tip Padgett
was Geo. Hunter’s father-in-law.
The escape now narrated is the
third bloody chapter in the history
of this family feud, and some think
the ma'teB is not ended yet, as Tom
Padgett has a large family connec-
tion, and mgny friends in the low-
er part of Echols county.
