W WinmnTOK, Ga., March 18.—Several uights ago, in Lincoln eoatity, the home of a highly respectable citizen, who was absept at the time, was « tared a burly black negro, who attempted to aauralt a lady.. Wrenching herself from tit grasp, she matched up her babe and f scaped in the darkness, having to go through half a mile of swamp to reaeh the house of a neighbor, where an alarm was given. The wife had not more than gone away when the husband, with a miglibor. wvtered the front door to see a negro make hit exi,t through the rear. They atartod in pursuit of him, and after a sharp race overtook him, whc» a fearful struggle took " Finally tlie men bound the negro and took him to Lincoln jail, where ha was recognized as the notorious Jack Henderson, who it popularly credited with many erisnat The excitement following thit event was intense and a movement to lynch Hendersoa was organised, in which blacks aa well at whites ware concerned.

One year ago next Sunday he procared a lioenee for their marriage In iitipiie, Germany. No more is known of th*m ni.til Oct. 10 last, when they left New York for Chicago. Again their lives drop beneath the snrface nntil Jan. 1U last, when they took lodging in * cheap and poor quarter of the city. The visions of plenty they had seen on board the emigrant xhip were not realised. Oagow found no work, and as their carefully saved board dwindled day by day metn and wife grew despondent.- Last night the end was reached. Their rent was unpaid and there remained to them but a single five-Cent piece. • HDey canvassed the situation and resolved upoq a plan to pay the debt once for alL This morning when Mrs. Broderiek opened the door of their little room she found her lodgers beyond all trouble or thought of the to-morrow. There were short nails in the walls, one on each side of tip room. There were cords which had done service on their scant couch. Thaee cords had proved a most effeotive weapon with which to drive the wolf from the door. The husband bad knotted one of them about his wife's-throat and had drawn it as tightly a» jpesibie over the spike in the wall, and then' performed a like service for himself. Thonjh the feet of both rested on the floyf, there waa no waveriogin the determination to be rid of life, and death had oome at their call, finding them carefully and cleanly dressed in the best of their poor clothes, their poorer ones having served as fuel to warm them in their last moments. They died as they bad lived—together. Hew yoiw, Maroh There was an old time parade on St Patriok's Day.

Again their lives drop beneath the snrface nntil Jan. 1U last, when they took lodging in * cheap and poor quarter of the city. The visions of plenty they had seen on board the emigrant xhip were not realised. Oagow found no work, and as their carefully saved board dwindled day by day metn and wife grew despondent.- Last night the end was reached. Their rent was unpaid and there remained to them but a single five-Cent piece. • HDey canvassed the situation and resolved upoq a plan to pay the debt once for alL This morning when Mrs. Broderiek opened the door of their little room she found her lodgers beyond all trouble or thought of the to-morrow. There were short nails in the walls, one on each side of tip room. There were cords which had done service on their scant couch. Thaee cords had proved a most effeotive weapon with which to drive the wolf from the door. The husband bad knotted one of them about his wife's-throat and had drawn it as tightly a» jpesibie over the spike in the wall, and then' performed a like service for himself. Thonjh the feet of both rested on the floyf, there waa no waveriogin the determination to be rid of life, and death had oome at their call, finding them carefully and cleanly dressed in the best of their poor clothes, their poorer ones having served as fuel to warm them in their last moments. They died as they bad lived—together. Hew yoiw, Maroh There was an old time parade on St Patriok's Day.
