II ow the Mollie MagnlreitOiice Planned Hl Af urdor. There were few better known local char acters in tho anthracite coal regions thau " Itiley the Bum," who died iu'Potts villo on Wednesday. His Christian natno was Juincs, but the people in the mining patches of Schuylkill, Noi ihumbrlaud, Lackawanna and Luzerne counties, knew him only ns " The Bum." It was iu Schuylkill, however, where ho figured as a Mollio Maguire, that ho is best known for there his political iolluciioo was strong enough to Fapport him for a dozen years past. Years before ho took a hand in corrupt politics he was a peddler of medicine for the iclief of rheumatism. This medicine he made himself aud walked about the regions selling where he could. Ho sang capital Irish songs and was as full of jokes aud quaint stories as au egg is of meat. Theso accomplishments, coupled with his ability to drink often and late aud pay his score with the best of them, made him a great favorite with the miners. While on one of these peddling cxpedi lions, lasting a week or more, he would visit ilftccu or twenty mining patches, making scores of acquaintances. As theso trips followed each other very rapidly ho iu a few years became one of the best known men iu the lower authra cito region, and every year his eirclo of acquintaucos was enlarged. Then he be came valuable iu politics. In 1872, when he was added to tho corps of advanco workers tho machiue had iu tho coal re gions, lie was a tall, lean, rouna-suoui- dercd and consumptive-looking leliow ot twenty-eight years. Ho had a thin, cun ning face, sandy hair and a sandy mous tache. His clothing was, as a rule, shabby, except when ho attended a state or national convention or visited Washington. His owlish and nomadic habits led to his being dubbed " Tho Bum," which natno ho ever afterwards retained. As ho grow older he becamo thinner aud moro foxy looking, but otherwise his appcarauco was un changed up to tho time of his death, lie could icad and write aud his memory was remarkably good. Iu local political strug gles ho was strictly impaitial; publicly ad mittiug that ho worked for the man who gavo him tho most money. On national questions ho was for Cameron aud Hart ranft llrst, last aud all the time. Iu tho spring of 1872, when living in Girardvillo, he joiucd the Mollio Maguircs aud becamo quite popular with tho members of his branch, which was ono of the most noted in the region. Being a peaceable and very superstitious man, "Tho Bum" was never trusted by such revolutionary Mol lies as Jack Kehoo and Barney Dolau, who when he declined to take part in a breaker burning excursion, resolved that ho was a dangerous member aud should bo put out of tho way. While his murder was being plauued "Tho Bum" emigrated to St. Clair and sought the protecting iullueuco of his uncle, Martin Doimcr, a lighting man with a record. Fearing that tho Mollies would kill him, for running away Kile.y went to Pottsville, whero a low weeks later Kehoo and a number of other meni bcis, who were altenvauls huug, came over aud assured tho "Bum " that ho had nothing to fear if ho kept his mouth closed about the secrets of tho order. Ho agreed and was reinstated iu the good opinions of all tho Mollies. Later it was openly charged that he was instrumental in "lixiiig" me jhouio vohj iu ocuuyiKin and Northumberland iu tho fall of 1872. This he never denied. The ' Bum's " iu tiiuacy with tho worst Mollies in the region got him into trouble in 1877, when so many of tho members weio aricsted. Ho escaped, however, and admitted that he did m on account of his political friends. In 1872 ho was entrusted with $:,000 to " lis " the Norwegian aud three or four other townships iu Schuylkill county for tho Republican party. From that time ho cutercd deeper into tho con fidence of his political employers and openly boasted iu 1875 that they dared not go back ou him, as ho had too much dam aging evidecca against them. From 1872 until tho time of his death ho had a linger in tho buying of delegates to ovcry county convention held in Schuylkill, andinoudly admitted that he knew every purchasable vote that was worth a fig between tho Susquehanna river and Schuylkill Haven. In 1873 ho spent 2.000 iu attempting to corrupt tho Labor lleform county con veu tiou. Ho failed, and later it came out that tho money came from Uarrishurg and that for twenty-four hours boforo the convention the " Bum " had scoured the county buyiug delegates' votes. Ho was a fetauuch supporter of General J. K. Sigfricd and it was to no small extent duo to the "Bum's" labors that tho general was made chairman of the couuty commit tee in 1880. "Tho Bum" attended every national convention held since 1870 aud his gaunt figuro could always be seen hovoiiug around tho uotablo politicians at Pennsyl vania state conventions. In 1870 ho was a member of tho Centennial police force aud drew his salary regularly without leaving Pottsville. He claimed to hold a sinecure in tho Philadelphia custom bouse in 1881, aud whether his story was true or not ho certainly paid monthly visits to the city mentioned and returned with mouey, which ho declared was salary. Though Senator Cameron, General iiartrauft, Gov ernor lloyt and such less inlluential friends as J. K. Sisfried. Congressman C. N. Brummand Sam Losch ",The.Bum" always managed to have plenty of money. When taken sick he held a government position in Washington. Ho was brought from Washington to Pottsville by Sam Losch. The dead mau leaves a widow and two children, of whom ho was very fond. Perilous Woric. Detroit Free Press, There were thrco or four of us Michi gandcrsat tho samo hotel in Montgomery, and all wero amazed at tho sight of so many coloredmen loafing the time away on the street. The man from Ionia county finally thought he'd make a few inquiries, and beckoning to a stalwart black who had spent the last two hours on tho curbstone, he asked : "Have you any work to do ?" " Not jist now, sab." "Have you over tried farming'?" "Oh, yes." " And how did vou come out?" "Mighty slim, sah. De white folks down heah, doan' encourage do black folks 'tall." "How's that?" " Wall, in de fust place, dar's de rent of de land. Dey might jist as well frow off de rent, but de won't do it. Den it I git de land an' sot out to borry a mule nobody will lend mo one." " Supposo you bad a mulo ?"' "Den whar would I borry a plow? Can'c raiso craps onless ye plow. Don when I got de plow au' went obcr to Kurncl AVhito's to borry a harness de kurnel wouldn't bo home, or he'd bo usin' nil rin Ptrnns he had." "Couldn't you make it go if you had land, seed, mule, plow, an harness !". asked the Wolverine. " I reckon I might, but 1 dunno. 'Spo sin de mule expired or de harness broke, or some nigger stolo my plow ?" " That's so. " An' do o!o woman might die, or one of do cuill'cr git snake-bit, or it might rain fo' weeks widout a break. Tell you what, boss, you men from do Norf think it looks hard to see so many of us lyin' 'roun' do towns widout work, but yon doan' know nuffiu 'bout de perils of get tin' right down to bard work an takin' all de chances.

The j.iil at Nashville, Nash county, N. C, in which Jerry Cox, notablo as one of the most desperate criminals ever kuown iu tho slate, was eonllrcd uuder sentonco of death, was fired by him and entittly destroyed. About midnight people wero awakened by the roar of the flames, and many hastened t.o tho jail, but on their arrival they found the walls and bars glowing red with heat, while the murderer within was scrcamiug iu his death agony. Iu less than an hour tho jail was a mass of ruins. Early this morning the body of Vox. was fouud and. a groat crowd stood appalled at the terrible fate which had overtaken the brutal murderer. Cox was ono of the leaders in tho famous Worley murder, near Goldsborro, in the early spring of 1878. Ono night he and others of a gang of desperate swamp negroes murdered Mr. Worley by beating out his brains, after enticing him into tho yard of his house. They then caught his wife as sho ran out on bearing tho dying groans of her husband, criminally as saulted her rcpeatedjy iu the presence of her little children and then beat ont her brains with clubs aud left her ou tho floor of her house in a pool of blood. Tho wholo state rang with the story of tho crime, and after a hot pursuit tho murderers wero captured. Four negroes were subsequently executed ou one gallows at Goldsboro, having bceu couvictcd principally upon tho testimony of Jerry Cox, who, by turn ing state's evidoncc, escaped tho gallows, but narrowly missed lynching, and hail to bo removod secretly by the authorities. For four years tho whereabouts of Cox was a mystery, but he finally made his ap pcarauco near Battlcboro, where, on No vember 10 last, he committed another mur der. For a year before that time Cox, who was a coal black negro of most repul sive form aud features, had lived with a degraded white women named Mary Haw kins. Maddened by drink and jealously ho on several occasions nearly killed her, and sho at all times performed most menial offices for him. He, baring pro teuded to doubt her faithfulnoss, met her one day at tho house of a negro woman. They quarrelled, ho struck her and theu weut away. She followed him to whore ho slept uuder a water tank when he took her to a secluded place near lho railroad track aud cruelly murdered her. For hours ho watched by the side of tho body, aud, before daylight, placed it on tho track of the Wiluiiugtou & Woldou rail road, wheio the wheels of a lightning ex press train maugled it horribly, cutting off the head. Tho station agent saw tho body, aud, not far away, discovered Jerry Cox aud tho negro woman watching. Cox, being interrogated, said that tho Hawkins womau had walked ou tho track whilo drunk and thus met her death. Ho became greatly excited and was at once arrested. At tho trial thoevidcuco of Cox's guilt was overwhelming, and in a fow minutes after being charged the jury rendered a verdict of "guilty of murder." Cox was accordingly sentenced to bo hauged at Nashville September 20, but took au ap peal to the supremo court. While iu jail Cox made a desperate attempt to kill the jailor with a piece of chain and padlock. Ho was beaten into bubmission, but sev eral times afterwards ho broke chaius and aud was otherwise so violent that hand culls could not bo kept ou him. Ho shout ed cut continually that tho Lord broke his bonds. Frequent threats of lynching him were iuadu during imprisonment, as tbe ucgiocs aud whites alike hated aud feared him.
