BURNED ALIVE.
PAYS THE PENALTY.
SIashed with a Knife While His Flesh Was Cooking-Another May
 Burn.

CoRSICANA. Tex March H. Wednesday a mob burned John Hen derson, the negro who butehered Mrs Younger.
 An immense crowd was present
 The officers were poWerless.
 Henderson's death was much like that of a frightened beast. He lost all nerve.
 The first train in the morning over the Cotton Belt from Hillsboro was so crowded that it could carry no more. Runners were sent over the county announcing the arrival of Henderson here and all the morning people were swarming into the city to take part i'll or witness the execu- ton of the penalty to be inflicted on the negro.
 After his confession it was decided to burn him at the stake at o'clock. but news was received of Rangers and troops ell route from Dallas due here at 12 o'clock. and hurried prepa- rations were made to anticipate inter- ference.
 \ railroad rail was driven into the ground at the corner of the court house lot and boxes and wood were piled around and saturated with oil The crowd had increased to about 1000 at II o'clock. About forty made a rush from the jail across the street to the court house.
 Surrounded the Wretch.
 In their midst was the negro, hand euffed
 The men formed a circle, holding on to a chain which completely sur- rounded Henderson to prevent the at tempt of the enraged people to get him and tear him to pieces. They rushed to the pile of wood prepared for the fire and fastened the negro to the iron rail with wire and chains. Cans of oil were dashed over his clothes and dozens of lighted matches touched to the inflammable material. At that time the fire alarm bell was rung and the stores of the city were deserted and the streets were full of l men rushing to the court house to l witness the burning.
 Just before the pile was fired Con way Younger, husband of the murder ed woman, jumped at Henderson and slashed him across the face with d knife. As the flames encircled the negro and ran over his clothing the crowd yelled and Younger again at tempted to cut the murderer with his knife. At no time during the burning did Henderson give any indication of pain or suffering. He rolled bis eyes so as to get a glimpse of the sea of angry faces which surrounded him. and his hands moved slightly.
 Lived Ten Minutes.
 It was about ten minutes before he was dead, during which time the movements of his hands were becom- ing feebler. At no time did he make any outcry other than once, a groan.
 At 11:30 Lee French, husband Of the victim of the negro Anderson Norris, who beat her to death with a piece of iron pipe last November. and who was taken from jail here last week by the officers and carired to a place of safety, climbed a tree and made an impassionate speech to the crowd. asking them to help him to get the murderer and deal with him as they had just dealt with Henderson. The crowd yelled back that they would assist. The nerth-bound Cen tral train arriving here at 12 oclot k was crowded With people from the southern part of the county who ey- pressed disappointment at being too late
 No militia was on the train. Mike A0Ilapd'c

NONE RECAPTURED.
The Escaped Prisoners Still Enjoying
 Liberty-JaI Searched.

Wednesday afternoon the officers searched all the prisoners at the lief. ferson county jail to ascertain wheth- CT or not they had in their possession any saws, etc, with which they could effect their escape. It was thought that the Jones boys, Anderson or Hackett, who broke jail Wednesday morning, might have left the instru- ments they used with the other pris- oners.
 As yet none of the prisoners have been reeaptured. The escaped pris. oners should have been thoroughly searched before they were put in jail If any attempt has been made to re capture the jail breakers We have not been given the particulars regarding it. Sheriff Mccoy says he has men hunting in all directions, but their ef forts will doubtless prove fruitless

SMUGGLING CHINESE
INTO UNITED STATES

Port Townsend. Wash, Oct. 9.-An-
other evidence of the determination Of
Chinese to invade this country and
evade the exclusion law was brought
TO light today by the capture Of a sloOp
with four Cinnamon on board. The cap
ture was made by the United States
revenue launch Guard, in command of
Lieutenant H. 3. West, a few miles
south OF Fort Flagler.
When the captain of the sloop sight
ed the launch approaching, he ran his
boat close in shore, jumped overheard,
swan to the beach and then took to the
woods. A portion of the crew of the
launch landed and gave chase, but ow-
ing to the dense growth of underbrush
the pursuit was abandoned
On the sloOp were found four Chi
nese who were oroughe- here They
stated to Collector of Customs Huestis
that they had paid $50 to be brought
over from the British Columbia side
The slOop belongs to a notorious British
Columbia smuggler named Jameson.
This makes the fourth sloop captured
from him with Chinese on board during
the past thirty days, and two other
sloops belonging to other parties were
captured during the same period.
Chinese are being smuggled across
the line daily and the authorities are
putting forth increased efforts to put a
stop to the business.

His words with reference to the

inspired by the Hottest patriotism.
With him I believe that some formula
should be devised to pay a sacred debt
without throwing a heavy burden upon
the republic. Moreover. the army list
should be revised so that the exact
amount due may be known. The Gu
