Two gentlemen of recognized emf
nence amongst the clergy OF Los Angeles
yesterday dedicated their sermons to
the fsgitious abuses OF the library Of
this city. There is small wonder that
they did 60. 1t is a fostering rot that
menaces the well-being of the Angel
City. which, by the way, is in danger Of
ranking itself with the cities OF the
plains through the eccentric and inde-
fensible wicksdness OF the management
OF that institution. Why should the
fair fame OF our city suffer, and suffer
continuously, through the corrupt and
salacious character Of the president Of
the board OF trustees, G. A. Dobineon.
This person could not be elected pound
master. His moral character is
we'll known. Why should he be
permitted to sully and COM
promise the character OF the board of
library trustees? He was selected
originally for his position by some in
scrutable process of favoritism. Let
somebody stand out and say on what
ground he was selected? Knowing that
his offense is rank. and smells to high
heaven, why does he not resign and give
Mayor Rowan a chance to name q
worthier successor? Paying no attention
to the sluggish inspirations which would
move a self-respecting man to get out OF
the way, and admit Of reorganization
OF our library board. why does not Mayor
Rowan remove Dobinson? The pres
encs OF LIE Cadet on the shelves OF our
public library is the most Infamous in
cident of the last decade.

several games in this section during the

have them como here this year.

a proposition to manage baseball club

NEGRO PRkAC8hR LYACHED.

Again. 4 While Women

PALATKA, FLA, May 29.-The peo-
pie Of this section are very much excited
over the discovery of diaboiicai con-
spiracy among the negroes to commit a
series of outrages upon white women.
The particulars are that about eight
weeks ago a negro preacher by the
name Of Burgis came to the turpentine
stills in the neighborhOod of Putnam
Hall. and procured employment After be-
coming acquainted with the coiored en-
ployes he made damaging remarks about
the daughter OF a farmer living near
by. and proposed to the negroes that they
should sieze this girl and several other
white women and carry them into the
swamp ana make them submit 10 their
embraces. 1t is understood that several
negroes agreed to the plan, apd that
preparations were being made 10 carry
IL into effect. Fortunately, the white
people got a hint of the conspiracy and
began to Investigate. They secured evil
dence that such a conspiracy did exist
and they took steps TO guard thelT
homes Meanwhile. the negroes learned
that their diaboical plan was known, and
secretly they began TO leave the country.
One Of those TO leave was Bursls, VINO
had suggested the outrages upon the
women He fed just in time 10 escape

gone TO secure him 1t was learned that
Rnrpis had gone TO Georgia, and the
