CHAINED TO TREE AND BURNED.
The Terrible Fate Of Brutal Negro nj the
UUnds OF Mob.

Hands OI n MOD
At The recent term of the Calcasieu
Parish District Court white man
named Oscar Martin was convicted of
an attempt to murder his father, whom
he shot and wounded, and u negro
! named Lewis Woods was convicted of
assaulting a negro girl. They were
both young men, not more than TWEEN
ty-one years of age. While awaiting
, sentence they succeeded in escaping
from Jail, and took to the woods. A
few days aftcrward Lewis Woods came
up with Mrs. Humphrics, the wife of
a well connected gentleman, in the
woods at point near Bear Head Creek,
about thirty miles northwest of Lake
Charles, and assaulted her. Martin
does not appear to have been present
ut the outrage.
The country was aroused, and the
fugitives, who had kept together, were
tracked and followed, and finally driv-
Ell into Texas, where weckago in
Jasper county, near Cairo, they were
! arrested 10y citizens of that state. The
men were held until the arrival of dep
uty Sheriffs from Calcasieu, who took
| the prisoners and started 10y rail with
them for Lake Charles.
On arriving at the Edgcrly station
in Calcasieu parish, the train was
boarded 10y fifty armed men, who forci.
bly, took the men off the train. 1t was
evident that the mob intended to make
short work of the matter. They start
ed with the two prisoners for the
woods back of Edgerly. Some of them
had ropes and others shotguns, but it
was reserved for the negro not to die
either by the rope or powder and shot.
He seemed to be Indifferent to his
fate, and trotted along in the middle
of the mob as if he were the most un-
concerned man in the party. Not SO
with the white man. He seemed to
fear the worst, and it was often neceS-
sary to push him along in order for
him to keep up with his black COM
panion.
When the timber was reached the
negro was quickly lashed to Il tree, and
the crowd began to pile fagots about
him. While the work was going on he
begged TO eXOnerate his companion,
the white man, who, he said, had no
hand in the outrage upon the woman.
"lle begged me not to do it" said
the negro, "and that is all l have to
say
Those words saved the life of the
white man, and he is now in the jail
at Lake Charles.
When the pile of dry brush was al
most as high as the head of the negro
the match was applied, and soon the
flames were seething aud cracking
around the doomed man. As they be.
gan TO Scorch his flesh his agonizing
Shrleks seem to penetrate the very
heavens. 1t seemed to be the intention
of the crowd to prolong his sutferings
as much as possible, and some of the
crowd, which had now increased to
about 200, pulled some of the fire away
from the victim. He begged them tC
shoot him-anything TO relieve him
from his sufTerings.
The sufferings of the man did not
cease for fully twenty minutes, and
the agony that he endured in that
short space of time was more than pen
can picture.-MGJyland Democrat.

A Partially Dend Man,

follows: 81 have been a partially dead

my sufferings to the enlargement of

be sufficient to set up a first-class apoth-
