CHAMP, THE INsULTER.
Durham is Indignant Over a Foul
Mouthed Negro Fiend
From the Durham SUM-

From the Durham Sum-
For sometime ladies living in the
western portion of the city have been
rudely insulted, on different ucca-
sions, by some negro who would put
his hand on them or use language in
their presence that would frighten
them. They could see him plainly
but his name was unknown to them
and they did not know who to report
for the offense.
On Tuesday, late ia the afternoon,
rs several vCung ladies fwhose names
for the gresent are withheIdl were on
their way home from their different
occupations, Champ Markham, d
mulatto negro, used words and acts
before some four or five OF them that
would cause the cheeks Of marble
statue to blaze with Indignation and
the heart Of every virtue-ioving man
10 swell with hatred and 4 desire tor
veDgence.
Chief of Police Williams was very
prompt in issuing warrant fer his
arrest and sending out his assistants
after the contempJible scoundrel and
late yesterday afternoon he was ar
rested by officers Wood ana Austin,
upon the charge of insulting ladies,
and lodged in Jail.
The negro was taken before Eve of the
young ladies, who positively ident fed
him as the one who has, at different
times, grossly insuIted them on the
streets. Upon arriving at the jail he
was turned over to the sheriff aud
county jailOr for safe keeping and
they Immediately placed him in a
steel cell.
The people OF the town are very
Justly indignant.

EXPECTED A LYNCHING.
n Body of Durham Negroes Made
Themselves Conspicuous.

Between IL and II o'clock D. m. Feb.
night crowd Of negroes congregated
around the courthouse in Durham
and for some time it looked like there
was going to be trouble.
The officers who were on duty at
police headquarters, heard the tramp
of many feet in the hall of the court
house and the door to the police office
was cracked open and a negro named
Henry Neal, showed his head on the
inside. The officers went out and
found about f1fty negroes in the court
house. They asked them why they
had come there, at that time of night,
and the negroes replied that they
heard that Champ Markham, the
brute who insulted white ladies on the
streets, was to be lynched and they
had come to see if it was so. The
police Informed them that there was
no danger of any such affair occurring,
at that time, and commanded them to
dlSperSe and go home.
The Sun says that one of the officers
went out to ascertain their strength
and when he arrived in front Of Joe
listers restaurant, on Market
square, some fifteen or twenty more
negroes came out of his place of busi-
bCSS. IS dSheu til0Iu WudU Uuey were
doing there and where they were
going. They replied that they had
started to the Courthouse. He told
them that such Assem- blages were un-
lawful and commanded them to dis
perse, but they went on to the court
house in body.
When the mob was told to go home
the leader, who then gave his name as
Thomas Williams, said he paid his
taxes and that he was not going any,
where until o'c ock, which declara-
tiUn several of the crowd sanctioned
by saying they were not, either.
Mayor Carlton had Oeen sent for and
when he arrived he ordered the arrest
OF the leader. who was still there, for
inc'ting riot and refusing to dlsperse
when told TO do so by the officers He
fixed his bond at S25, which he gave,
and while it was being drawn up he
said his name was not Thomas Will
lidms, but William Faulkner. The
crowd then disbanded and left the
courthouse. They were all, more or
less, under the influence of whiskey.

Wanted to be Put In jail.

While the editor of the Wilkesboro
Chronicle was in Winston his paper
appeared with the following:
If reports are correct, and they seem
to be, he idea of being in Jail is not
so repugnalt to some people as we
might suppose. According to our in
formation fellow came down from
the Western part of the county last
week to be put in jail. He is In some
kind Of suit for not working the road
Report is that he tried to get Esquire
FORESTER, at Goshen, TO Issue nit
limus for his committal to Jail. This
was not done, and he came on down to
town to try the jailer, but the jaller
was away from home and he returned
much disappointed.

TSUPERLATIVELY GRAND!
AN EVENT EXTR IN
THE HIS TORY OF WINSTON.
Miss Yaw, the Phenomenal Prima
Donna; Miss Lay, Concert Pianiste.
and Mr.. Dick, Violin VirtuosO.

Winston-Salem captured!
Miss Ellen Beach Yaw the captor.
The best in THE SENTINEL's vo-
cabulary is none too good to render
due credit to the phenominal prima
donna and this statement will be
heartily endorsed by the large and ap-
preciative audience that attended the
event extraordinary at Browns Opera
HouseTuesday evening, Feb. 5th.
The appearance of the new star in
in the realm Of song had been heralded
by the strongest encomiums of press
and public and expectancy was
wrought to a lofty pitch. So high
sounding were these words of praise
that some thought, perhaps, they were
the creations OF fancy or the result of
cXaegeration, but after the first num-
ber in the programmed been rendered,
in manner so perfect, so artistic, and
so wonderful, as to amount to reve-
lation, the fact dawned upon all that
language had failed to convey an
adequate conception of the true
merits Of this remarkable and unique
artist.
Encore after encore demonstrated
the exquisite pleasure of the audience
and some whose fortune 1t has been
to hear such Queens of Song as Patti,
Nillson and Melba, declare that the
voice OF Yaw is more wonderful than
any OF these. Considering the combined
qualities OF power, melody, fexibility,
and compass, together with the
clearness and hute-Iike sweetness of
the upper notes and the ease with
which they were produced, we do not
wonder that the New York Herald
prOnounces Miss YaW "the most re-
markable soprano recorded by his
tory" nor do we question the COM
ment OF the Kansas City Times that
she possesses "a voice as Is heard but
once in round Of centuries"
Miss Yaw's singing was not the only
highly credttabie feature of the grand
concert. The performances of Miss
Lay upon the piano are warmly com
mended, her accomplishments being
considered specially meritorious, and
the violin selections by Mr.. Dick are
pronounced the finest and most
artistic ever heard in this section
Much credit is due Mr.. G. Fl. Addi-
son, of the Standard Music Company,
for his successful effort to favor our
people with the grandest entertain
ment in the city's history.
