ANATOMY and the words, "COme on
with the oil" brought hugh can
of kerosene to the foot of the tree
where the negro, his body covered
with blood from head to foot, was
striving and tugging at his chains.
The can was lifted over the negro's
head by three or four men and its
contents poured over him.
By this time good supply of
brush, pieces of fence rail and 9th
er firewOod had been placed about
the negrO's feet. This pyre was
thoroughly saturated. and a match
applied. A fame shot upward
and spread quickly over the pile OF
wood As it licked the negrO's legs
he shreiked once and began tug
ging at his chains. As the flames
crept higher and the smoke enter
ed his eyes and mouth Hose put
the stumps of his hands to the tree
back of him and with a terrific
plunge forward of his body sever
ed the upper portion of the chains
which bound him to the tree. His
body held to the tree only as far
as the thighs, lunged forward, thus
escaping the flames which roared
land cracked about his feet. One
lof the men nearest the burning ne
gro quickly ran up and, pushing
/ him back, said: "Get back into the
fire therev' and quickly coupled
the disjointed links of the chain.
The road for distance of half q
mile on each side of the burning
negro was black with conveyances
and was simply impossible. The
crowd surrounded the stake on al
lsides, but none of those nearer thar
loo feet of the center were able t(
see what was going on. Yell after
yell went up, and the progress o.
the flames was communicated t,
those in the rear from shouts of the
eye witnesses
The torch was applied about 2 81
O'Clock, and at 8 o'clock the body
of Sam Hose was limp and lifeless
his head hanging to one side. Tht
body was not cut down. 1t wa!
cut to pieces.

Philadelphia North American,
April 20:
Rev. James Studevan, the color
ed pastor of the Macedonia Baptist
Church, West Philadelphia, was
arraigned before Magistrate South
Yesterday afternoon to answer a
charge of assault and battery pre-
ferred by his young wife.
Mrs. Studevan testified that her
husband brutally ill-treated her.
The defendant denied the charge
and said that he only slapped her.
"Well, it's pretty hard to have
to send a minister of the gospel to
JAIL" said the Magistrate, "but
that's where you will have to go if
you cannot get $500 bail"

A Negro Burned.

Last Sunday an awful scene was
enacted about two miles from New
man, Georgia Sam Hose negro
was chained to Il tree and burned.
He was charged with the crime of
having murdered Alfred Crawford
and for having outraged CranfOrd's
wife. He denied the latter charge
but confessed that he killed Gran
ford for a bribe of $i2. A negro
preacher named Strickland was the
briber. The mob took the muir
derer from the Sheriff from train
of cars while taking him to prison.
With their prisoner they travelled
past Governor At inSon's house.
The Governor appealed to let the
law have its course, but the mob
moved on shouting ''burn him.
a half mile from town the clothing
was torn from his body. He was
chained to tree
He said not a word to this pro-
ceeding but at the sight of three or
four knives flashing in the hands
of three or four members of the
crowd about him, which seemed to
fOrcaste the terrible ordeal he was
about to be put to, he sent up a
yell that could be heard for mile.
Instantly a hand grasping knifs
shot out and one of the negrO's ear.
dropped into hand ready to re-
ceive it. Hose pleaded pitifully
for mercy and begged his torment
Ors to let him die. His cries went
unheeded. The second ear went
the way of the other. Hardly had
he been deprived of his organs OF
hearing than his fingers one by one,
were taten from his hands and
passed among the members of the
yelling and now thoroughly mad
dened crowd.
The shreiking negro was quickly
deprived of other portions of his

Not Guilty,,Quay Appointed
Senator.

THE jury in the Quay case came
into Judge Biddle's court with a
verdict of not guilty at IL o'clock
on Friday, April 21. 1t was a
triumphant vindication of Colonel
Quay after one of the most vindic-
tive civil and political movements
at persecution. a vile and malig-
nant bounding that had all the bit
ternsss in if that jealousy and NAL
iciousness can bring TO the front in
men except murder. Murder. of
his body was the only thing that
his enemies did not resort to and it
was only hanging that kept some
Ofthem from numbering him. Sena
torQuay does not pose as a saint and
has not been more than guilty Of
practices that were sanctioned by
the business and political practices
of past time. If the standard of bus
iness and political practice is to be
changed, it were best that his prose
cutOrs begin with themselves. One
OF the worst features of the QUAY
case was the manifestation of the
easy access that viciously disposed
men have of framing an issue or
charge and with il dragging a man
into court there to be exposed to
the public gaze and comment as
having been engaged in question
able work among his fellow men.
The malignant cOnspiratOrs against
Quay failed i'll all their purposes.
They had no issue last fall during
the campaign excepting Quay and
the machine. When Mr.. jerks
came, the burden ofhis speech was:
"Quay and the machine" When
Mr.. Wanamaker came, the burden
of his speech was "Quay and the
machine. When Rev. Mr.. Swal-
low came, the burden of his speech
was Quay and the machine,r "
and when the singers came the bur
den Oftheir song was ''Quay and the
machine" When the Legislature
met the burden of all the opposition
was Quay and the machine" When
they went into court they dropped
the machine and changed their ex-
preston to ''Quay and the bank
conspirators.' The real conspira
tors were those who shouted "Qua,
and the machine" The leaders o1
the Republican party could moi
leave the Senator under such NAL
ignant assault. They owed it tt
their own manhood and to Senator
Quay to stand by him while he wa.
the victim of one of the vilest pol
itical prosecutions of this day anC
generation. The rank and file o
the Republican party all the whil
were well massed in support of tn
Senator, who had never failed il
his fealty to Republican principle
and now that the malignant con
spirators have been defeated il
their malignant purposes they ma,
do well, if they escape a prosecu
ton in the courts for their cOnspir
acy work. 1t would he a right
eous thing to turn the tables on th
cOnspirators who have been pros
tituting the best institutions of civ
ilization into instruments of perse
cution. Governor Stone immed
lately upon the receipt of mes
sage announcing tie verdict of th
jury, not guilty, sent the following
telegram to President Mckinley
