Talented Traveller.
The three small boys, Farrell, Gressel
and Davis, were brought back from
Truckee on Saturday by Deputy Sheriff
Fay for being implicated in the theft Of
some razors from Third-street barber
shop recently.
They were locked up in the City Jail,
but young Davis was released yesterday,
as he was clearly not one of the gang.
Davis said he came from Springfield, H.,
and started in business as a bootblack in
Oakland. He failed to reap the fortune
ne anticipated, and had started back to
Springfield when he was arrested with
Gressel and Farrell at Truckee.
He is bright little fellow, and, al
though without dime, he expected to
get back to Springfield all right, and set
out to beat his way as best he could. He
said he could crawl in somewhere on
most any train and get a ride

Lieutenant Finley, writes to Director
Barwick from Oswego, N. Y, under date
OF the 10th, saying: To-day the heaviest
storm of the season is raging, and the air
is so completely filled with snow that is
being hurled in every direction by gusts
of wind off the lake that it is impossible
to see clearly distance of 20 feet. 1 ar

1t has showed every day since that time,
and several days most furiously, the tenn

You can Imagine how l enjoy this as
compared with my experience of the in
comparable climate of California. The
people there do not fully appreciate the
many advantages surrounding them.
They have become accustomed to an
abundance of good things in this life.
There is great future for California, and

Several times this winter have suffered

been quickly relieved by applying one

Frank Bogart told the same story as
the other two, up to the beginning of the
row. He SAID that Hazeltine jumped of
and struck Johnson. Hazeltine called to
Woods and the latter jumped off and
struck at him, but did not hit him. He
struck back and they chnched. Hazel
tine got the pistol and pointed it at John
son. Witness grabbed the pistol, but
they got 1t away from him and took him
into the car and kept him there. Witness
was certain that he did not strike either
Woods or Hazeltine first. They had given
Hazeltine no reason for attacking them.
He stood facing the car when the first
blow was struck, and Hazeltine struck
Johnson first. When Woods came he
struck at witness. He heard one of the
carmen say that this was the P-street
gang and they would do him up.
Several persons testified to the general
good character of the defendants.

NEGRO EDUCATION
I'M SOUTHERN STATES
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EXPENDED
IND A NUMBEP OF EXCELLENT
COLLEGES AND NORMAL
SCHOOLS ESTABLISHED.
REFORMS IMPERATIVELY
NEEDED,

| Rev. Thos. Dixon in New York Herald
The only solution possible for th.
negro problem 10 America, it seems
to me, is true education, time and
and the accumulation Of wealth.
One Of the 5raiEiest negroes in Amer
J lea, one Of the truest men | know
black or white. is the Rev. j. c..
Price, president OF Livingstone Col.
lege, North Carolina. He ls pfesi
dent Of the Afro American League
which has for its purpose the eleva-
tion the negro through edoclion and
the accumulation of property. This
man is not simply true lover OF
his race-he Is a man Of the highest
attainment Of character, an orator
of magnificent power. He will be
remembered rs the man whom Presl.
dent Cleveland appointed Minister
to Liberia in his FIRST term, but who
declined the post, which he did not
seek, and has continued his work in
this little village Of North Carolina.
Price says Of the negro, IN one of his
recent addresses to an audience of
negroes :-"Change the condition
Of the negro, and you will change
the attitude Of the white race toward
him. Black Is net what Is the mat.
ter with you people; it is simply be-
cause you are diFt1 and 1gnorau,
and superati:ious, Change your CON
dition. snd l viii guarantee TIE
world will change its attitude to-
ward you"
Is the negro being truly educated
in the South to-day? 1t Is certain
that great SACRIFICES have been made
by the Southern States to fulfill the
ohlig alton Of the constitution IN the
education of the negro along with
the whites.

MILLIONS EXPENDED.

Millions upon millions of dollar g
have been spent and are being spet t
for his education by che southern
whites. The spending Of this money
means not simply the appropriation
Of SO much money from glut,ed
treasury. It means 50 much
mOneJ wrung from the hard
earnings Of poor people. 1t is &
fact that the South to day is making
more sacrifices Tor the education Of
the negro than many Northern
States, including the wealthiest and
most cultured, are making for the
education Of their people. Contrast,
for instance, the State of North Car.
olina with the State of Massachu-
setts. North Carolina has IN round
numbers property valued at two
hundred million dollars. Tn:s is
tae basis on which all the taxes OF
tue State are levied, from whicb
must be raised all the money TO run
the State government, to Fay tAs
salary of her officers and to run
her pc nal and charitable institutions,
both for white and black.
Think of whule State possessing
2OO,00O,00O in property to be taxed
for!all purposes! 4 single family lives
on Fifth avenue, In New York city,
that own more property than the
whole taxable value Of the State of
North Caroline, from the sea to the
furthest mountain peaks on the west,
including land, houses, goods and
every possession Of the people. Mas
sachusetts has property valuedta ST.
100000 as the basis on which
she runs her government and schools.
