LYNCA|kG At
LAKE VILLAGE
Follows a Battle in Saloon Between
Whites and Blacks
IN VIII CHI FRANK ANDERSON WAS KILLED
a Prominent Little Rock Lawyer was
Wounded in the ARRAY No Further
Trouble Anticipated BY Officers.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. A dis
patch from Lake Village states that
at noon yesterday the steel Jail was
entered by an Infatuated crowd Of
men who took Henry Johnson, col
ored, from his cell and hanged him
in the center of the town.
The lynching was the result Of a
shooting ARRAY which occurred in a
saloon between negroes on one side
and whites on the other.
Frank Anderson, white, was IN
stantly killed and Badly Vinson, a
we'll known lawyer of Little Rock,
received two wounds, but he will re-
cover. Two other parties were in
jured but not seriously.
The trouble is said to have been
brought on by the action of negro
walters in the saloon. Anderson is
said TO have resented some remarks
made by one of the negroes. With
Anderson were several friends, in
Guiding Badly Vinson and Joe Frame
The first shot was fired by Ed Cole
man, a negro, and then followed a
regular fusillade. When the battle
ceased it was found that the results
were that Anderson was dead with
several bullets in his body; that Vim
son was shot in two places, and that
Joe Frame was shot in the foot. OF
the negroes engaged in the ARRAY 1t
was found that Ella Mcdowell had
been shot, the ball entering her
back and lodging in the breast.
Ed Coleman, the negro who fired
the first shot, fed, but it is hardly
possible for him to escape.
Henry Johnson, the party who was
lynched, was captured and placed IN
Jail.
The shooting caused the greatest
excitement, and at noon Tuesday the
crowd assembled in the court house
yard and demanded that the prisoner
be handed over to them.
Conservative citizens pleaded with
the crowd to let the law take its
course, and a sum was subscribed
to defray the expense Of prescott.

were secured and in a few minutes
the jail doors were battered down.
The mob then entered the Jail, seized
the frightened negro Johnson, took
him to the lake front in the center
of the town and swung him up. Not
a shot was fired by the mob, which
quickly dispersed after accomplish.
