Colored Girl Is Badly Beaten And Then Raped By White Man
IS CARRIED TO THE CANAL AND PUNISHED UNMERCIFULLY Crime One Of Worst In  Local History, Say Police
What is next in crime? This writer would like to know. There has been so many terrible crimes, some of a kind so hard to believe, that to say any crime committed just yesterday or today is the worst we have ever seen, seems like stretching the blanket. But that the assault upon Alberta Hyde, a 18 year old colored girl, by Charles Falone, a white man in his twenties, last Saturday night, was one of the most cold blooded, brutal and heart rending known to this community, is concurred in by several members of the third district of the police department, and agreeing with arresting officer Mike Lyons, Captain Parr says it was the worst he ever saw. Hiss Hyde, who lives at 2510 Tyler Avenue, has been in Louisville a little more than six months. She came from Nashville, Tenn.. with another young woman, Miss Stella Rogers, who lives at 2814 Lytle street. She was on her way from the home of Miss Rogers to her own home at 10:30 Saturday night when she found that she was being followed by a white man at 26th and Portland. She at once became frightened and turned to go another way to reach her destination, , when she found that the white man was upon her. When she attempted to get away, according to her story, she was caught by the arm. She attempted to fight loose but the man was a big fellow and much stronger. She fought, however, until she was exhausted and helpless. She was dragged to the canal near 26th street, when he then attempted to rape her. With renewed strength she made her last stand to save herself from the heinous attack, but 'twas feeble and of no avail. She fought the man as few women can, leaving her marks on him, but he won after choking and beating her head into a pulp twice Its actual size. One of her eyes was closed; her lips and jaws bitten and knawed until her face was a sight of cuts and blood. She was stripped of her clothing and thrown in the mire and mud of the canal and then assaulted. It was about 12:30 when her continuous screams attracted the attention of Officer Lyons and Sergeant Shouse, who found her sitting in the mud with practically nothing on. She, with the white rapist, was arrested, but she was dismissed when she appeared in police court Monday morning. She had to be helped to the witness stand. After dismissal she was carried to the city hospital, where she is now being treated. She was in terrible pain and a pitiful sight when seen by the writer Wednesday afternoon. She is from a good family, is intelligent and has a good position with a white family on Portland Avenue. Her relatives are in Nashville, but hundreds of colored and white people in Portland and over the city are interested in her case, which is being gone into by the West End Civic Club of Portland and the N.A.A.C.P. When arraigned before Judge [Daily?] last Monday morning, Falone, who is said to have a bad reputation, having just completed a sentence, began to say that he was attacked by the girl and a "nigger", when he was cut short and bound over to the grand jury without bail. He will be arraigned before the grand jury Friday morning. The police and superior officials of the third district showed the writer every courtesy when he attempted to make investigation last Tuesday night. To a man they were free to say that it was one of the worst crimes they had ever seen and that Falone should pay the full penalty. He was not drunk.
