Several Hundred Negroes Arm Themselves

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 29-Sherif
Smith left for Pratt mines Friday night
with a strong civil posse and the Jeffer-
son Volunteers to quell q reported race
riot or attempt to lynch Deputy Sheriff
Maxwell From the most reliable reports
obtainable at this time it seems that sew.
eral hundred negroes at the mines have
armed themselves and threaten to lynch
Maxwell and burn the town. The white
people became much alarmed and sent
messengers to the city begging the sheriff
to send them help as quickly as possible.
A train from the mines arriving
here at ten O'Clock brought in about 200
women and children. who are seeking
safety in this city. The trouble seems to
have grown out of the killing of a negro
woman by Deputy Sheriff Maxwell 1t is
said that the negroes at the mines have
been very troublesome OF late, and were
planning mischief of some kind. The
killing Of the woman seems to have fur.
nished them the opening they were wait.

ex.convicts and very hard characters.

at the Exposition: at appears to me that
We are laying 100 much stress upon the
superior intelligence Of American me-
chanics. The European mechanic is not
the stupid fellow we have pictured him a.
being. l have talked with Elsass and
Belgian mechanics, being referred to them
because they could and the exhibitor
could not speak English-mechanics en-
gagged in erecting machinery at the Expo
sition-and found them men OF excellent
intelligence and having good deal of
knowledge Of mechanical matters. All
our traditions are against this,
but traditions sometimes falsify facts.
In mechanics tools, however-squares,
standard scales, vernoirs. micrometers
and the LIKE have seen nothing
that appears to me a. good as those of
American manufacture. These American
tools look better, are cleaner cut and more
convenient In wood. working machinery
think We excel at the Exposition. Our
machinery appears to do better work and
to do it more completely; that IL, itleaves
less work to be done by hand. have,
however, never seen better castings than
most of those in the European machinery.
In general app ,arance the castings made
on the continent indicate that the molder
does not use the trowel and sleek as much
- the American molder. In steel cast
ings Europe appears to be ahead Of n In
the matter Of producing sounds."

A gentleme who is a resident and

property and business in other portions of
the State, thus giving him an opportunity
for observing the benefits derived by other
cities from improvements, gives it as his
opinion that the value of property in the
city OF Gainesville has been enhanced fully
$4,000 by the improvements made during
the past twelve months. He also pays Mayor
J. B. Browne a deserved compliment for his
skill and perseverance in carrying this work
through, in spite of the many obstacles
which he had to encounter.
