THREE NECKs STRETCHED.

the Death Penalty for Murder.

Three CoIored Louisianans Pay
the Death Penalty for Murder.
CLINTON, La, Jan. 17.-At 1870 this
afternoon Isaiah and Charles Dent, col
ored, paid the full penalty of the law
by being hanged by the neck until dead.
for the murder of MIR. Praetorious, near
Ethel, La, whom they waylaid and shot
to death on the first day of
last July. The condemned men as
cended the gall0Ws with bold and firm
step and took their places on the trap
door. The sheriff then read the death
warrant, after which they were given
an opportunity to address their friends.
Isaiah was the first TO speak. He adj
vised his cOlOred friends not to do as he
had done. but to be good citizens. He
had no fault to find in the execution of
the law, as he was guilty, and had no
doubt he had done wrong. Charles Dent
but was not as guilty as Isaiah, because
he did not shoot Mr.. PraetoTious. but
was present. At 1:30 the drop fell,
Isaiah only made a few shivering mo-
tons, and in three minutes his pulse
ceased to beat. Charles made some
sWaying and draWing-up motions, and
had pulse-notion for 10 or II minutes.
When they were pronounced dead.
the bodies were turned over
to their relatives and friends
for burial. The necks Of both
were broken in the fall. There
were some two or three thousand people
on the outside of the Jail yard, up in
trees and on houSe-tops, trying to geta
look at the execution. most OF whom
were colored people, Everything went

Holcombe. colored, was executed
in the jail yard here to-day for the
murder of Madeline Willis. a little
colored girl, on Nov. Il. 1889. Hol-
cOmbe was baptized this morning. At
1905 the death warrant was read, to
which he paid attention. but showed no
fear. At 1920 the march to the scat
fold began. The condemned man mount
ed the steps with unfaltering courage,
accompanied by his spiritual advisers
and the sheriff. Holcombe said
he was brought here to be exc
cuted for a crime Of which lie was innO-
cent. However, he was willing to APP
pear before the bar of divine justice
and there show that he was innocent.
He said he was soldier of the Lord
and would die as Christian and man.
HolcOmbe then stepped on the trap. a
hymn was begun by his minister in
which he fervently joined. AT its con-
cluSion the black cap was bound over
his face, the moose adjusted, and at

was pronounced dead and his body cut

company this afternoon filed in the
United States circuit court separate
answer to the amended bill of COM
plant in the case of the Union Trust
Company of New York against the
Missouri, Kansas e Texas, Missouri Pa
cific and Mercantile Trust Company of
New York. The answer charges that but
for the Acknowledgement, frauds and
manifestations of its lessee, the Missouri
Pacific, and the conversion and dissipa-
ton of its revenues by the lessee and
the fermentation of vexationS and pre-
mature litigation against it by
the lessee, its present insolvency
would not have been precipitated,
and that its condition of sub
Stantial solvency might have been
maintained. The answer charges that
the Missouri Pacific was responsible
for the failure by the NJ, K. q I. to
earn enough to pay interest on the
bonded Indebtedness of the road. 1t
is charged also hat the Missouri Pacific
owes the NJ, X. & L. large amounts
of money which it has refused to pay.

vide funds TO pay and redeem the 1,1S0
