Pueblo, Col, May 23.-Fiye minutes
after Calvin Kimblern, the colored
murderer, reached Pueblo on a Denver
& Rio Grande train this morning his al
most naked corpse was being dragged
through the streets by as many men as
could lay hands on the rope noosed
around his neck, followed by a bowling
mob Of at least 5000 people. II is said
not the slightest attempt to protect the
prisoner was made by the half dozen
officers having him In charge.
As the train pulled into the Eighth
street depot Kimblern was pushed help

ing car and into the very hands OF the
mob. A moose was cast about his neck.
Many hands seized the rope. The
negro was dragged face downward
over the railroad tracks, the moose tight
ened about his neck and he was un-
doubtedly dead before he was hanged
TO a telegraph pole two blocks from the
depot. Twice the rope broke. but the
third attempt az hanging was success

cut and the body was dragged half a
