MURDERER LYNcHED.
Report Confirmed of the Hanging of DIR
Gyder by Mob.


Atlanta, July 21.-Dispatches received
from Talbotton confirm the reported
lynching near there Of DR.. w. l.. Ry-
der, who murdered Miss Sallie Emma
Owen at Talbotton a year ago.
When the case against Ryder was
called, Judge Hart, on the evidence
that the leading counsel for Ryder
could not be present on account of
sickness, continued the case until the
regular term in September. Ryder was
10 have been returned to Muscogee Jail
on the s:20 p. m. train, and was taken
to Waverly hall, the nearest station
from Talbotton, for that purpose.
few minutes after the deputies ar
rived at the station a mob took the
prisoner from the officers and returned
with him to a point just across the
county line and there lynched him. His
body was found hanging from limb
at an early hour in the morning.
Deputy Sheriff Murphy, who was in
charge of the prisoner, says that in
company with Mr.. Boswell and DR.. Ry-
der he reached Waverly hall just be-
fore dark in a carriage and that the
prisoner was seated in the rear seat.
He sat on the left of Ryder and Bos-
well on the seat in front Just after
dark Boswell, who was looking out of
the carriage window, exclaimed, Look
out. there is man on a horsel"
"There they come." he shouted, and
in an instant the two deputies were on
the ground and found themselves COW
cred by pistols.
The mob ordered them to throw up
their hands and deliver their pistols
This Murphy says he refused to do al
first, but his pistol was snatched from
his bands. Then he began to plead
with the crowd for the safety Of his
prisoner. but was Immediately ordered
to shut up.
Ryder made but little resistance tC
the mob and while they were dragging
him from the carriage did not utter &
word.
The prisoner was placed in another
carriage and driven back to Talbo
county and hung to a tree just over thu
line, near the house of ]. c. Willis. Th'
mob. while returning with Ryder from
Waverly hall, was met by Sheriff Rich
ards and his posse. but owing to tn
darkness the sheriff could not distin
guish the persons nor gain any clew T.
their identity.
Richards was informed by the mel
who had Ryder in charge that he wa
too late, so he pushed on to Waverl,
hall, only to find that he had been mis-
led.
The action Of the mob is ascribed t
the Indignation of the people at tn
case being continued. 1t is also saf
that the friends Of the prosecution ha
given up all hope of ever bringing Ry
der to the gallows, by reason Of hi
being insane.

GEORCIA'S EXECUTIVE AND LyNCHlNC.

The Georgia legislature is in session ant
Governor Atkinson, in his annual messsg
to that body, said a number of thing
which must have been rather unpleasan
to many of the members. The mos
striking and bitter part of the message
was the reference made to lynching. The
governor said: "In free government
like ours there is no excuse for lynching
If there is evidence to convict, the courts
will punish; if there is not, punishment
should not be inflicted" and then he cited
instance after instance where men had
been lynohed and were afterward proved
innocent of any aud all crime.
Perhaps he came near the truth wher
he intlmated very strongly that while the
arresting officer was clothed with author
lty, the men composing lynching partie-
knew full we'll that no resistance would b.
made, and that in making an assault upon
the officer or a jail no danger would be
faced, Along this line he suggested that
officers in charge of prisoners should be
required to protect their charge at the risk
of their own lives, and, if necessary, to un-
shackle the man 10 custody and arm him
that he might protect himself. "The
knowledge on the part of the mob that
this would be done would deter it from
pursuing lts lawless purpose, aud the law
would be permitted to protect the nno-
cent and punish the guilty"
Between the lines of this part of the
message it is easy to read that Governor
atkinson is of the opinion that the "best
citizens" of the south, who take part in
lynchings, are towards and that two or
three thoroughly taught lessons would
materially reduce the number and fire.
quenoy of awless hengings.
Governor Atkinson in all probability
has sounded the keynote on this question
for the governors of other states where
lynchings are not uncommon, and the
result will be some action on the part of
legislstures which will tend to check not
only mob rule and executions, but the
crimes that cause them.
