Coatsvlllo, Pa., Aug. 13.-Zacarlah Walker, a ne ;rc desperado, was car ried on a cot from thc hospital hero to-night and burned to a crisp by a frenzied mob of men and boys. The negro, who last night shot and killed Edgar Rice, a special policeman of the Worth Iron Mills, was first drag ged to the sceno of the shooting, beg ging piteously for mercy. He had boen arrested by a posse Into this aftornoon after a search which stirred tho country. Tho posse finally found him hiding In a cherry ! tree.

Tho leaders were denied admission, but they quickly smashed the window frames and crawled through the cor ridor. When Walker was llrst taken to the hospital ho was strapped down In order to prevent his escape. Tho mob, seeing this, gathered up tho bed and placing lt on tho shoulders of four men, started for the country. When half a mlle from the hospital they entered a field and quickly gath ered up a pile of dry grass and weeds and placed tho bcd containing their victim on lt. A match was applied and the flames shot up quickly, entirely en shrouding thc screaming victim. That not a vestige of thc murderer be left, the mob toro down tho fence along the road and plied the rails on the burning negro. After waiting for half an hour the mob dispersed. A curi ous feature of tho burning was tho fact that there were almost as many women lu the crowd as men.
