BURNED ALIVE.
A Frenzied Mod Takes Negro Murderer
From Sheriff.

Mayesviile, KY, Dec. 6.-David
Coleman, the negro murderer oi
Mrs. Lsshbrook, was taken from the
officers by mob OF 1000 men, today
and burned at the stake. The mob,
led by the husband of the negro's
victim dragged the shrieking GRIM
inal. through the principal streets oil
the town, and took him to small
tree, set fire to brush about him and
stood guard until he was dead.
Coleman arrived at 1920 O'Clock
! this morning under special guard
of deputies sworn in by the sheriff,
including Detective Fitzgerald, Con-
stable Dawson, Chief of Police DoIo-
van, all the police force and two
deputy sheriffs. When they arrived
at the court house they were met by
mob of fully 1000 people headed by
James Lashbrook. the husband of
the murdered woman and went i'm
mediately up Second street and
through the central portion of the
city to the hill, followed by a mob OF
fully 5000 persons. All was done
that was possible by the sheriff and
guards TO prevent lynching, but in
the face of such q mob of people
irrespective of color it was useless
to attempt to do anything. The mob
grabbed Coleman and threw a rope
over bis head and took him up above
the city. Coleman could be heard,
above the cries of the mob, pleading
for his life.
At Covington Jail Coleman made a
full confession which left no shadow
of doubt of his guilt.
Coleman was burned near the spot
where Charles Collins was hanged
forty years ago for similar offense.
The place 10 now used for cricket
grounds. 1t is already announced
that Judge Harbeson will call q spe-
cial grand jury at once to consider
charges against leaders of the mob
today.
Blue vitrol and cayene pepper were
thrown into Coleman's eyes and his
face was smashed in with a club.
Prior to being set on FIRE Coleman
said he had nothing to say. His
death was slow and writhing in ter
rible agony he was booted and glar-
ed at by thousands of people stand
ing on the edge of the pit. Many
women were present. He died It
