Alken, S.C, Oct. 8--A mob early today stormed the Alken jail, seized three negroes, one of them a wo- man, and shot them to death in a pine thicket just outside the city. The negroes lynched were Clarence and Domon Lowman, and the lat- ter's sister, Bertha Lowman. The two men had been sentenced to death and woman given a life sen- tence at the first trial and were on trial a second time Yor murder ip connection with the death of the sheriff who was killed when, accom- panied by several deputies, he went ou-a liquor 'raid to the Home .of Sam LOwman, father of Domon and Bertha Lowman, and uncle of Clar- ence Lowman. The new trial was granted by the state supreme court and began early in the week. ' One of the contentions of the de- fendants at the first trial was that they were not aware that the raid- ers were officers. Annie Ldwman, mother of Domon and Bertha, was shot and killed by one of the offi- cers. Clarence was alleged to have fired the shot that killed Sharift Howard, Bertha was shot through the body during the raid. tion in Spencer's case. Hodges Attacked.

T0 GUARD AGAINST EX-KAISER'S RETURN Objection Roused to Castle Being Placed at His Disposal. Berlin, Oct. 8.--The Liberal and Radical party leaders of Prussia in- dicated to-day that they would tignt the clause in the new Hohensollern indemnity and settlement bill en- visaging the possible return of the former Kaiser to Germany. The clause reads:' "Allowing for his for- mer Majesty's eventual wishes, the state places the castle of Homburg at the disposal of the ex-kaiser and his princess wife, for life." "That," says the Liberal Morgen- post, "méans nothing more or less "than that Willlam, if he is inclined; can return 10 Germany." The clause certainly sounds sus- picious in view of William's recemt sub rosa monarchistic activities. The | crown prince has violated the con- ditions of his return to Germany by attempting to get his son into the relochewehr What guaranties have we that the kaiser, if allowed to re- turn, will not attempt to overthrow the republic?"
