A NAUGHTY NEGRO
Makes Murderous Assault on q
Dairyman.

Yesterday morning dairyman
named White, while delivering milk
in the Third ward, became involved in
difficulty with Nose Coffee, a stall
wart negro, over a bill which he held
against the latter. At the time White
was attending another colored custo-
mer and while busy measuring out
the tactical fluid. Coffee gathered a
large stone and started toward him.
White seized an ax and warned the
negro to desist, but the latter con-
tinuing to advance, struck at
him. The negro wsrded Off the blow
and, graphing with White, threw him
70 the ground, endesvoripg to wrench
the ax from his grasp, and exclaiming
that he intended to brain him with it.
He probably would have carried the
threat into execution had not several
negroes interfered and pulled him of.
White then jumped into his milk
hack and started OIL, when Coffee
broke loose from his detainers and fol-
lowed at a run. White whipped up
his horses and outran the negro,
and, proceeding to the courthouse,
swore out warrant for his arrest,
The facts are given as he narrated
them. Coffee has been Jailed.

A WORD OF ADVICE.

1t is as easy to be good man as
poor one. Half the energy dis
play ed in keeping ahead that 10
required to catch up when behind,
would gain credit. give more time
to attend to business, and add to
the profit and reputation Of those
who work for gain. Be- prompt,
honor yOur engagements. IF you
promise to meet q man, OF to do a
thing at n certain moment, bp rea.,v
at the appointed time. Ifyou go
Oat on business, attend promptly to
the matter on hand, then as promptly
attend to your own business. Do
not stop to tell stories during bust.
nsss hours. Ii you have q place of
business be there when wanted.
No man can get rich by string
around stores and saloons. Never
"fcOp on business matters. Have
order, system, regularity and prompt
ness. DO not meddle with business
YOU know nothing OF. Never buy
an article y0u do not need, simply
because it in cheap and the man
who sells it will tako il out in trade.
II ade il money. Strive to avoid
harsh words and personalities Do
not kick every stene in the path
more miles can be made in q day by
going steadily oh than by stopping
to kick. Pay as you go; a man OF
honor respects his word as he does
his bond. Aid, but nsver beg. Re
lisve others, when yOu can, but never
give what you cannot afford to,
simply because it is fashionable,
Learn to say NO. No necessity EOu
swapping it out dog fashion, but say
it firmly and respectfully. Have
but few canfidants. Use Sonu
braius rather than those of others
Learn to act ard think for your
selves. Be vigilsnt. Keep ahead
rather than be behind time. Young
men, cut tAis out and place il, by
careful peFMSal, in the golden store
house of your brain, and if You find
there is truth Ia the argument let us
know.
