IDA WELLS Wild TALK
A Thousand Lynchings Of Inno-
cent Negroes-Susan B. An
thongs Explosion.

ROCHESTER,, N. T., April 8. 1885,
There was an exciting finale to the lee
ture of Miss Ida b. Wells last evening
at the First Baptist Church. in which a
theological student from Texas and Miss
Susan B. Anthony participated.
Miss Wells said that negro lyIYchfng
had increased in the South in a marked
degree; that between 1882 and 1892. one
thousand colored people were lynched ON
slght p~retexts, and in many cases when
they were known to be innocent. She
gave a number of illustrations bearing
upon her conclusion when the theological
student who said he hailed from Texas
arose and said
DO you assume that all the negroes
that have been lynched In the South
since the war have been Innocent"
Il never said that" replied Miss Wells.
II simply claim that they were inno-
cent in the eye of the law; no ma Is
guilty until found solby a 6riaf.,.
INCARCERATION.
Miss Wells then resumed. her lecture.
She said 1t was considered a crime for
negroes to- internarry with the whites;
that this was man1festly unjust to the
colored women of the South. She tn-
sisted that If 1t was illegal for the white
men to marry colored women 1T should
also be Illegal for them to form alliances
with them. A white man might live
with a colored woman with trnpunity,
but if ne Should marry her 1t would be
a crime.
Here the Texan in evident excitement
arose and staid:-
do the negroes want to marry white
folks? If the negroes are 80 badly
treated IN the South. why do they not
come North. o g West or to- some more
congenial plaoe2"
'grhey are not able to emigrate; re-
sponded Miss Wells, because they are
always In debt to- their landlords. being
paid in checks for provisions only good
at plantation stores. 1 Would remain in
the South myself had I not been forbid
den to come back on the penalty of los
ing my life"
MISS ANTHONY ExPLoDEs.
Miss Anthony could restrain herself
no longer. She jumped to her feet and
with fire in her eyes said
THE colored people receive no better
treatment in the North than they do in
the South. That is why they don't come
here. l will relate an incident that oc-
CURED in our city only last yeek. A
dance was to be given in No. 3 School
for the benefit of the children of the
seventh grade, Il tickets were ISSUED
TO children for ten cents. Now 1T hap
pened that there was a colored girl in
that grade who wanted to go as we'll as
white ch1l0ren and her nl0tfer gave nef
the money but when she went ito her
teacher, Miss Stewart, she was told that
if She insisted ON attending, none OF the
white caildren would go and that the
affair would be given up; so the poor
child was turned away. 1 consider tina
the outrage on the feeling of that colored
girl was the result of the same spirit
dhat inspired lynehings of the South"
Miss Anthony's Remuneration OF these
distinctions among the Christian people
Of the North as well as the South was
dramatic and the rtheologidal Student
from Texas ~cornphetely subsidized in the
outburst of hysterta on the part of the
audience that followed.

self on Saturday morning by assisting
the New York police in a rather novel
way. Jackson was walking along Full

carried In her hand. made off at full
speed down Fulton street toward Nassau.
William NJ. Everett a young man of
Brooklyn, gave pursuit and caught up
with the thief. AS he reached FOR his
collar. the thief turned quickly and
stabbed him In the thigh with a large
knife which he brandished as he con-
tinued on his flight. Everett retired TO
a nearby drug store for repairs. HI
thief ran into another man near Nassau
street and again used his knife with
telling effect. By this time Bob jackson,
who was just turning into Fulton street,
heard the cries of "stop thief" and see
ing the thief running at top speed, took
in the situation at a glance. Bob con-
t.nued ON his a. apparently uncon-
cerned, Until the thief reached him. Bob
carried a large parcel in one hand, and
an umbrella In the other. Dropping
these quickly he jumped forward and
landed a heavy blow on the thief's jaw,
knocking him over on top of the car
tracks. The thief dropped the pocket
book in his fall and in the confusion
which resulted, someone handed it back
ito the woman from whom 1t mad been
stolen. BY this time the thief had re-
covered from the effects OF Jackson's

him, made q dash through it and ran
