TIE RACE WAR AT wAHALAK
White People Running Lown and Killing
- the Negro Participants.

NEW YORK, December ia Wa
halak, Miss, special says: Areport has
just reached here that an 1Ssse
overlook four Of thssi'zzegr participants
IN s9sssssssh zsIssss nights tragedy. One of the
J! four resisted and was riddled with bull
let's. The other three were then hanged
to surrounding trees. The posse was
sworn to run down all the negroes WHO
fed to the mills on the night Of the at
fray. There are at least fifteen other
negroes in hiding.
MORE BLooDsHED SURE. TO FOLLOW.
New ORLEANS, December ia
special to the States from Wahaiak'
Miss, says: The trouble between the
whites and blacks of this place is nos
yet settled, and serious trouble anu
much bloodshed is sure to follow. IL
is now known that in the past twenty
four hours at least two negroes, and
perhaps more, have been killed.
! THE SITUATION UNCHANGED.
MERIDIAN, Mississippi, Dec. 49,
The situation at Wahalak remains un-
changed. The negroes implicated m
the killing of Maury and Cobb, and
other citizens of Kemper County, have
all disappeared, and no trace OF them
has been discovered up to the time OF
this writing. A number of men have
been diligently searching for them
since Sunday morning, but not one OF
them has yet been found.
A rumor obtained circulation yester-
. day that there was trouble anticipated
, at Sh uqualak, station some miles
North Of Wahalak. This originated
from request made to the Sheriff o.
Knoxubee County to send twenty-five
men to that point, as there were fear'
!, of destruction Of property belonging tt
, innocent negroes in that vicinity.
The excitement is all over, and the
people are only anxious to arrest th'
perpetrators of the tragedy.
Cobb and Maury were buried Wed
nesday, and the wounded are all doin:
) fairly well.
The rumor that several negroes wer
; killed in or near Wahalak yesterday I
utterly without foundation.

IaDIANAPoLIs, December 19.-Hon.
Thomas Seldom and his associates,
comprising a committee of Southern
ers from Birmingham, Ala, who called
upon General Harrison yesterday,
werc particular to impress upon press
correspondents that the visit was nom
poiitioal,s in the general acceptance Of
the terrr. Inquiry, however, into the
causes and circumstances leading to
their visit and the formulation of the
address they presented to the Presi-
deat-elect, discovers the fact that be-
meath this endorsement of protection
doctrines by the capitalists of Alabama
lies hidden what may prove to be a
great political project. It is believed
that the movement embodies pro-
gramme for the founding Of a new po-
litical party in the Southern States,
the leading spirits of which should be
the business element, especially man
ufacturers. Said one of the committee ::
.sWe regard the Solid South as a
thing Of the past; it is gone forever:
The election of Gen. Harrison and the
certainty of the admission Of two or
three new Republican States strips the
South of her former power in national
politics. The breakup is upon US; we
must start arranging new lines, and in
doing so we propose to make new a.
liances and to bring about settlement
Of the perplexing race issue"
It is learned that the original secret
call issued at Birmingham, about the
10Th Of November, and sent to about
1000 the leading manufacturers, capi-
7taists and business men of Alabama,
has never been published. An exami-
nation ofthis call is of interest. It sets
forth the advantages to be, secured by
acquieseence in the verdict of the peo-
pie for protection. 1t deprecatesand re-
bels from further contamination ofthe
political supremacy in the South Of

lastly, it outlines an ingenious plan Sas,
the creation Of a new and iSaJ snJsn

Acknowledgement ceases.
The new party will rot antagoniz
the colored race or drive them from it
membership, but it will be organize
almost entirely by white men, wh
expect no support to speak of from til
negro at the outset. Protection an
fair elections are to be the corner
stones of the new party. and its charte
members are men of such unbounde
wealth and influence that the move
ment assumes an important aspect.

slovenllncss in Verse Making.

Men and women who seriously take up
the business of verse writing should, in
my c,sinion. declare to themselves that
they will write nothing but perfect
rhymes They may not be able to turn of
good poetry. judged by the highest stand
ards, their verse may halt now and then.
owing to defective ear; the metaphors
they use may be hackneyed. their rhetoric
far fetched OF milk and watery; their style
poor, pale imitation of that particular
master whori. in their reading. they have
most lived with and loved All this may
be, for reasons. beyond their power of
remedy
But one thing they can do. and should
do always, namely. see to it that their
rhymes are not false rhymes. or rhymes
for the eye alone. but true ear rhymes.
where there is an actual agreement and
consonance of sound. Hardly any poet
aster alive is incapable of knowing such a
rhyme when he sees it or. by the minds
ear. hears it. A poem is. after all. and
primarily. musical production: hence
any falling short of its musical demands
Injuries the poem by just so much. and the
rhyme at the end of the line is one Of the
most distinct and well known methods of
securing this desired music.-Richard E.
Burton In The Writer.

The Rree.es of Cape Town.

OF all the desolate. unkempt looking
places in the world the suburb of Cape
Town we passed through under the
shadow of the mountain is the most un-
iempt and desolate- 1t is not an &C
:eptable side of the town. and no one
lives here who can possibly avoid it, for
here the celebrated southeaster round the
Cape Doctor. as the Anglo Indians called
it. blows tbc strongest. and the Cape
Doctors" strongest is 10 joke.
Where it comes from no one quite
knows. for it is n purely local wind. and
it always seems possible TO get behind it
by going a few miles to the windward
Some people aver that it is brewed on top
of the mountain and comes down Just
upon Cape Town itself and nowhere else.
There are all sorts Of queer things going
on on top of this mountain; witness. for
instance. the celebrated white tablecloth
that hangs over it whenever a south
wester is az work But wherever it
comes from it is an unmistakable reality.
as you soon learn. for it whirls barrow
loads of gravel in your face, or spins you
around like a teetotum at the street cor
ners. Foreign Letter.

Two Springfield Toughs Accused of Rob-

Late Saturday night, Officer johnson
found three men lettering about the c. C..
C. Il l. depot and ordered them to move on.
The men were Unlocking characters, two
of whom the officer recognized as Sam
Ryan and Mike McDermott, two well
known mulders of this city, who have fire.
quently figured conspicuously in police cir
cles. The men replied to the officer that
they were waiting to take the train to Day
ton. and upon this statement they were al
lowed to remain.
Sunday Officer johnson learned that the
two men had really taken the train to Day
ton. and had been seen by Springfield
gentleman on the train 70 steal valise
near Dayton, belonging to an old gentle
man in the passenger coach, who was
sound asleep at the time. The valise con-
tanned some valuable articles, both intrin-
sically and by association, and the old man
was deeply moved at his loss. The case
was reported to the Dayton police, who
have communicated with the Springfield
police. 1t is believed that Ryan and Nc
DermOtt are now working with the Dayton
Malleable Iron Co., and can be apprehend-
ed without trouble.
