ment Friday afternoon such ns has nev

It was only by prompt action on the part
of officials that two negroes were not
lynched. Two colored individuals who
were employed on tho new railroad
wero In Punxsutawney Friday and they
stole some clothing from a store. A
warrant was Issued for tho thieves and
Policeman Clayton Palmer went In
quest of the culprits, tin found them
at tho P. A N. W. R. R. station and
when he attempted to arrest them one
of tho negroes shot him. Tho bullet
entered his face and inflicted a bad
wound, but not a fatal one. The news
of the shooting spread rapidly and a
crowd of men soon surrounded tho
negroes and captured them, not, how
ever, until several other citizens had
narrow escapes from death, as tho
negroes fought desperately before they
surrendered. An excited mob waited
for the night shades to luivo a lynch
ing bee. Tho people supposed the
prisoners would be taken to jail via rail
and thcB., R. & P. R'y station was
watched until the last northbound B.,
R. A P. train left. While tho railroad
was being watched tho officer hustled
the negroes Into a carriage and took

then they said they truly thanked tho
Lord they were alive. One of tho ne
