A Savage ReIfgtoa-Taree Infnrts
KILLED AZ y Camp Neestax.


The Rock Hill Herald Of the 10Th
vouckes for the truth of the following
statement On Sunday last three in.
FAINT negro children were killed at the
negro camp meeting at Steele Hill. in
upper Lancaster. by being stamped and
rolled upon by shouting women.
Strange to say, too. these tragic pro-
ceedings took place. not under the ar
Dor where the main crowd was gathered.
but off little way in tents. Not two
dezths occurred in the same tent either.
These circumstances throw around this
extraordinary occurrance horrible
suspicion Of murder under the guise OF
religion. IA far n we have particulars
IL appears that number of women were
carried from the arbor to tents in q yerv
excited state. aid that after being
placed in the tents where the children
were, these tragic scenes were enacted
Our latest information is that two OF
the children were killed alfnosf in
stantly, while the third one Is alive. hut
With its back broken and many other
bodily injuries it is expected to die.
This place, Steele Hill, was the scene az
some ugly rictine during camp-meet-s
inB there one year ago, and We think il
y NOW time for some legal proceedings
to b initiated against somebody.

Very few people have any idea Of
the amount of litigation going on in
Dallas. Two Justices of tho Peace, q
County and District Judge, a Sheriff,
Constables and deputies, County and
District Clerks are kept busy with the
execution of the law. Seventy odd law
yers are busy examining papers, maxi
ing speeches, and trying cases. The
Grand and other juries are hammering
away over knotty criminal and civil
business. Tue desire to Claw" one

else there must DO an extraordinary
population coming into Texas these
last few years. The law business Of
Dallas ought to make all of the attor-
neys rich, and would If they got their
fees, but unfortunately, men will go to
law without any very clear ideas about
how they are going to pay for the
sport, and the lawyers, many of them
have to whistle for their fees.
