Mrs. W. M. Mitchell , living on Grace

Ington In his ofllco at the court house yes-
terdiir to enforce her dcTmands for an extra
supply of coal from the county. She cumo
to Huntlngton's headquarters yesterday
morning and demanded an order for fuel.
She was told that only one order n month
could bn given to any of the pensioners ,
nnd she at once Insisted she got her last
donation over a month ago. The ovciBcer
disputed the correctness of her statement
and looked over his recotds. All the tlmo
the woman rained n torrent of abuse upon
him. Ho discovered that he had made n
mistake nnd told her so , and wns gectlng
ready to write her out an order. This only
encouraged Mrs. Mitchell to upbraid the
overseer all the more and she accused him of
doling out the orders stingily and pocketing
the rest intended for the'poor. Hnntington
resented this charge and closed his order
book and told her he hud "taken about all
he would from a thing like her. "
In an Instant she had the overseer by the
throat und was crowding him Into n corner
of the room. Huntlngton IB a small man ,
nnd one of his limbs Is badly crippled. The
door of the ofllco was closed , but the noise
of the conflict attracted Judge Smith and
several attorneys , who were Just coming
down from the court room. They helped to
get the overseer out If his predicament , and
Mrs. Mitchell left without her order for coal.

this morning four 'Missouri miners , em
ployed nt the llLson mine , who were on
their way home from dqwn town , met
Patrick Carney and his wife , who had been
attending a ball. The Ml&sourlans called
Carney across tlio street and talked to him
a few minutes. Then one of them shot him ,
killing him Instantly.
Carney Is an elderly man , well known In
the camp , and is a leaser , working on the
Star mine. The .Mlssourlans were all ar
rested , but It Is not known yet which one
fired the shot.
From the standing of Carney In the cum-

considerable trouble , as the Miners' union
people nre highly Incensed over It.
Mrs. Carney Identified one of the Mlssour-
Inns named Evans as the man who killed
her husband. The prisoners say that Carney
was Intoxicated and attempted to arrest
them. _

OWBNSI10HO. Ky. , Dec. 1C. Alfrcl Holt ,
colored , nllns Alexander , the murderer of Po
lice Olllcor A.Vlilto. . was takm from Jail
by n mob nt 2:30 : this morning and hanged
to n tree In the court yard. I'ho lyneuing
wna the mont orderly anil ilet | : ever con
ducted In the state , anil , onlsltlc of
the participants , only those who had
business ai the court house knew of
It. About 2.O : o'clock two nun knocked
nt the Jail iloor , ami In answer ' .o n unostion
by Deputy Jailer Ashby , who isKed v.-'m '
had knocked , said they had , prisoner tney
wished to lock np for safekeeping. Thus
thrown oft Ills guard , young -\sliby openec
the door , only to lace two big tcvolvern. Ho
was overpowered before he cotill utter n cry
and the keys were taken 'rom him.
Pleading for his life , Holt was t.ikun out
of the jail , through the con it house yard
to the cast side facing Ilia Fttnlil hatiec.
Ho was given ample time to pray , when a
rope was placed n'uout his neck. At the
word of command ho was swim. ; high in the
air , and In ten inltuiios he was .leail. Mo
had strangled to death. When ilia mob h.id
made sure that their work was complete
they mounted their horses in neighboring
streets nnd alleys and left the town as
quietly as they had come.
While there was much mob talk at drat. It
was generally thought that after much
damaging evidence had been brought iigalnst
Holt , the law would be allowed to take Its
course. The mob's coming was , consequently
quently , entirely unexpected this morning.
Holt'H crime wns committed on the morn
ing of November 11 last , after the .election ,
omcer White was killed with his own pistol
tel , which wns taken from bin pocket b >
a negro named George Dnskell and handed

after al Lonlavlllo three weeks ago , Ills
trial was begun early this week , and the
commonwealth rested on Thursday , after
producing conclusive evidence of the negro's
guilt.
Including Holt , seven men In the last

In Kentucky. Lust Saturday Henry Kind-
ley was called to his door near Mayflelil
