RACES At WAR.
Negro Miners at Spring Valley, Ill, At
ssss tackled by Italians

tackled by Italians.
PRINCETON, Ill, Aug. 6. The Italians
OF Spring Valley broke out Sunday ID
| a war upon the negroes with asyiew Of
either massacreing them or driving
them from within the city limits
The Italians for many months have
wished to drive the negroes out of the
coal mining belt and Sunday q plausi-
BILE excuse for SO doing presented it
self. At | O'clock Sunday morning an
Italian was held up on the public
highway by four negroes, robbed and
shot four times, from the effects st
which his physician says he cannot live.
A mass meeting of the Italians was
called and at 10 o'clock mob of over
300 that gathered started out for the
negro village which is located
2 miles west of Spring Val
ley. They were headed by the
Spring Valley Italian band and
to deceive the negroes into thinking
the assembly q peaceable one this
band rendered several national an
thems. The negroes as a result re-
NAMED in their homes, and the Italians
fell into them like lot of Apache In
dams.
The men were dragged out, dubbed,
trampled upon and made the targets
for the shotguns, rifles and small arms
the mob had brought with them. The
women were insulted, slapped and two
Of them while begging for mercy were
shot down and fatally injured.
The Italian rioters served notice on
the women and children who had not
been driven out that they and the in
avaaids would be given until
might to leave the town for-
ever, and that if they were
not gone by dark they would be shot
down in their tracks. Consequently
all afternoon the women were packing
all that was left of their household
goods and fleeing over the hills in all
directions Large numbers have
started out in the direction of Toluca
and others have taken refuge at Seat
onville
When the rioters were organizing
near the city hall the mayor
was notified of the threatened
trouble by group of citizens,
to whom, it is charged, he replied
that it was no use for him to try to do
anything and that he didn't know but
what the negroes should be shot any
way. Word was then sent to Sheriff
Clark at Princeton, who at once COM
menced the organizing of a posse by
sounding the fire alarm and enlisting
the men as fast as they turned out. By
noon he had a sutticient~number, but
at that hour word was received that
actual rioting had ceased, SO he went
to the scene Of the trouble with only a
dozen men. The negroes asked that
protection he had be given them so
they could return to their homes but
the sheriff referred them to the city
authorities and the latter so far have
| refused protection of any nature

PROF. STONE WIGGINs, of Ottawa,
Ont, says the great lakes of North
America are decreasing every year and
the time is near at hand when Niagara
falls will cease to be. One Of the
causes OF the constant decrease in the
volume Of the great lakes is that the
rivers that drain them are constantly
wearing away the earth and gaining a
deeper bed. But the chief cause is the
constant decrease in the rainfall on
the southern half of the continent.
