Heorgin Vengeance ns Horrible as That at Paris, Texas. Newman, Ga., April 23?In the presence of nearly 2,000 peo pie who sent aloft yells of defiance and shouts of joy, Sam Hose a negro who committed two uf the basest, acts known to crime, was burned at the stake in a public road one and a one-half miles from here this afternoon. Before the torch was applied to the pyre, the negro was deprived t)f his ears, fingers and other portions of his anatomy. The negro pleaded pitifully for his life while the mutilation was going on, but itood the ordeal of fire with sur prising fortitude. Before the body was cool it was cut 11 pieces, the bones were crushed into small bits and even the tree upon which the wretch met his fate, was torn up and disposed of as souvenirs. The negro's heart was cut in several pieces, as was also his liver. Those unable to obtain these ghastly relics direct, paid their more fortunate possessors extravagant, sums for them. Small pieces of bone went for 25 eents, and a bit of the liver, crisp y cooked, 80I1I for 10 cents. One if the men who lifted the can of kerosene to the negro's head is laid to be a native of the com monwealth of Pennsylvania. IIis name is known to those who were with him, but they refuse to ii' ., it. The mob was mm t -, posed of citizens of Newnan, Jriflin, Palmetto and other little towns in the country round about Newnan, and cf all the farmers who had received word that the burning was to take place. Hon. W. Y. Atkinson, former governor of Georgia, met the mob is he was returning from church ind appealed to them to lot the law take its course. In addressng the mob he used these words: 'Some of you are known to me ? 1 when this affair is finally settled in the courts, you may depend upon it that I will testify igainst you." A member of the mob was seen to draw a revolver ind level it at Governor Atkin ion, but his arm was seized and the pistol taken from him. The mob was frantic at delays and would hear to nothing but burning at the stake. IIoso confessed to killing CrauFord, but denied that he had outraged Mrs. Cranford. liofore being put fo death the negro stated that he had boon paid $12 tw O I .ifTA" Strlnllllllwl n/iifrn Blood Cure Sent Free.

Saturday morning one of the Jones boys met Ilose and he ^ was talking to him when he 11 noticed that his "ginger" face h was ebony black, but just below the collar was discernible. Convinced that the negro had black ened his face to escape detection, Jones became convinced that he * was the negro for whom the au thorities, assisted by bloodhounds, had been scouring the country for 1( ten days, and they determined to " arrest him. Sunday morning a they brought the negro into ^ Macon and put him aboard a cen u tral of Georgia train with the intention of bringing him to Ata lanta. At Griffin some one recognized hose and sent word on ^ to Newnan, the next station, that the negro was on the train bound * for Atlanta. When Newnan was c reached a great crowd surrounded I1 the train and pushed into the cars.

This was ^ acceded to and the negro was 8 taken off the train and marched 8 at the head of a yelling, shouting 8 crowd of 500 people to the jail. Mere they turned him over to a .8 Sheriff Brown, taking a receipt for the prisoner, thus making themselves sure of the $1,250 reward for the uarrest and delivery 8 to the sheriff of Campbell county, ' of ono Sam Hose."

"To the stake" was again the cry, and several men wanted to burn him in Mrs. McKlroy's yard. To this she objected strenuously^ and the mob, complying with her wish, started for Palmetto. Just as they were leaving Newnan word was brought that the 1 o'clock train from Atlanta was bringing 1,000 people to Palmetto. This was thought to be a regiment of militia, and the mob decided to burn the prisoner at the first favorable place rather be compelled to shoot him when the militia put into sight.
