A Threatened Conflict of Races
in MaurY County.

Tuesday night about 10 o'clock Mr..
Ed. Wilson, of Columbia, was drawn
from his house by unusual noises and
demonstrations on his premises, and
was attacked and twice shot by dis
guised negros. Having gone out with
the expectation of meeting thieves he
was also prepared for the assassins, and
thinks he killed or MORALLY wounded
one If not two of the would-be murder

follow.

BY MAX AnELER.
(Concluded from last aceeh.)

At this juncture the sheriff entered,
his brow clothed with thunder. He
had copy Of the Morning Glory in
his hand. He approached the editor,
and, pointing to d death notice, said ::
Read that horrible mockery Of my
woe, and tell Inc the name Of the writer.
ST. that eau chastisc him. -
The editor read as follows:
" We have lost our little Hammer in a very p.infu,
manner,
And we often asked, how can her harsh suf,crings
When her death was first reported her aunt rot up
With the grief that she supported for it made her
feel torlorn.
She vas such little seraph that her father, who is

She has gone, hope, to Heaven, at the early age

monster ooulden't smile over that allu
sion to whiskey and rum; if those re-
marks about the rheumatism in her
legs could not divert his mind from
the horrors Of the tomb-was it nv
fault? McFadden grovels! He knows
no more about poetry than speckled
mule knows about the Shorter Cate
chism'
The poet determined to leave before
any further criticisms were made upon
his performances He jumped down
from his chair and crept softly toward
the back staircase. Arriving at the
landing, he suddenly encountered Brim-
mer, who was making off in the same
direction. The editor had hardly tine
enough to utter u profane ejaculation
and to lift his hand to strike the poet,
when an old lady in a poke-bonnet and
silver spectacles suddenly emerged from
the stairway aud pinned the editor to
the wall with the terule of her umbrel-
IL. After grinding her teeth at him
tor moment she foored him with her
weapon, and seating herself upon his
PROSTATE form, she extracted COPY of
THE Morning Glory from her bag, and
pointing to certain stanza in the obit-
uary column, asked OFT to read it
aloud. He did SO. 1t ran in this FASH
ion:
Little Alexanders dead;
Jam him in a coffin
Don't have good a chance
For 4 fun'ral often.
Rush his body right around
10 the cemetery
Drop him in the sepuchre
With his Uncle jerry"
At the end Of every line the indig
nant conqueror punched the fallen
Brimmer's ribs with her umbrella. and
exclaimed:
20 you willin: D'you hear that.
you wretch What d'you mean by
writin' Of my grandson in that way :?
Take that you serpint! O! you-you
willinous wiper you! tryin' to break a
lone widder's heart with such scand'lus
lies as them! There, you wiilin! I
kemmere to hammer you we'll with this
here umbrella, you wicked willin,' you
owdacious wiper, you! Take that, and
that, you vile, indecent, disgustin' wag-
abone! When you know we'll enough
that Aleck never had no Uncle Jerry,
and never had no uncle in no sepulchre
anyhow, you vile wretch, you ~
While she pounded the editor, the
poet CROPPED his way down stairs six
steps at time, and emerged from the
front door with remarkable suddenness.
His journalistic career ended upon that
day. When Brimmer's employees
dragged away Alexander's grand parent,
and carried her struggling and scream.
ing down to the street, the editor sent
for carriage and was taken home tc
bed, from whence he arose week late,
with an earnest determination never te
permit another line Of Obituary Poetry
to enter the columns Of The Mornt,,1
Glory.

With morning light

and slept little. With morning light
my incredulity returned. I laughed
and ridiculed Mary and the rest of the
family about being scared by the spirits.
The day passed off as usual and night
once more came to put us to a test as to
what sort of stuff we were made Of
John, that was the boys name, aud I
did not leave the kitchen after dark but
kept close by where we could see and
know all that took place. Nothing oc-
Cured till I was busy putting some wood
in the stove, when hearing a noise,
looked to the door, which was bolted as
it was the night before; the latch was
playing up and down as though some
PERSONS hand was on the door handle
and had their thumb on the thumb
piece. Without stopping to think, I
run for the door. The latch stopped
suddenly; unbolted and opened the
door, and run out the whole length of
the walk. could see nothing nor could
l hear anything that could cause the
disturbance.
To say that was frightened would
not convey the meaning of the feelings
that passed over me at that time. I
thought for sure it was spirits OF some
kind. To say that we did not sleep
much that night would be telling the
truth. The next day Mary visited the
Catholic priest, confessed her sins and
received do not know what, but came
home as happy as clam in high water.
I think we all felt very religiously in
clined all day. When evening came
Mary was washing up the supper dish
es and having been kept awake so
much, I was very sleepy and went early
to bed with John. Our bedroom
opened out of the kitchen on the oppo-
site side from the back door tha: was af-
fected by the spirits. We left our door
open and had the rifle we'll loaded
where we could reach it. Mary was
singing merry as cricket, John was
snoring, when the door latch COM
menced again it's double shuttle
on double quick time.- Poor Mary
made straight for our room. She had
just strength enough to get to the bed
and fell across it in swoon.
The old door in the mean time kept
up clatter that nearly Frightened the
wits out Of me, but I pushed Mary one
side as best I could, for she was good
solid girl, got up and walked to the door
with fear and trembling and unbolted
the door very quickly, when the spirits,
in the shape Of large cat, jumped down
from the door handle and ran along the
walk. We had no cat at that time, but
this was a wanderer of that race whose
highness had probably strayed from home
and was seeking the kind charity Of the
world.
Since then I have heard the bullets
whistle and felt their sting but do not
know that ever before or since was so
thoroughly frightened as I was by that
cat.
The laugh that followed after the re-
covery of Mary from her swoon, and
the relation to the rest of the family of
the cause Of all our fears, with the Incl
dents of the last fright, can be better
imagined than told.

So Mrs. McFadden has gone from this life;
She has left all its sorrows and cares;
