Nor TO BE CAUGHT.-The senti-
ments cherished by many colored
citizens toward the medical colleg-
es, unmeraus in Washington, are
well known. Among other remors
current is tale which credits the
might doctors with a diabolical
scheme whereby a rope is lowered
from upper windows, with q Crap
ping attachment, by means of
which passers by are drawn up into
the dens of the unknown terror.
Some medical students amused
themselves the other night with a
colored man, who came with a mes
sage to some one in the college.
The messenger stood in the middle
of the street, calling loudly for the
object of his visit.
oh, no. | reckon not. Dom
ketch me in dar. | knows better
he responded to the invitations to
enter from a knot of fellows in the
doorway. Two or three students
edged down the sidewalk and began
to execute military movement, as
though to surround the enemy.
When the colored man saw dark
forms creeping up in the moonlight
he rent the atmosphere with wild
yell of terror which might have
aroused the sleepers of the Congress
sional cemetery, and shot up the
street into darkness like comet
with tail of shrieks.-Washington
