FIXED FOR A TRIP.
Outfit of the Lad Frank Smith, Ar
rested Near Fsieton.

The boy arrested down the river near
Isleton by Deputy Sheriff Harvey, as
announced in yesterdays Record
Union" is a mystery to Sheriff john
son and his officers.
The youngster says his name is Frank
Smith, and has told conflicting stories
as to where he came from, but admits
having been arrested in Sioux City, Ia,
a year ago.
In the boat were found a life-buoy
stolen from the river steamer Jacinto,
an ordinary life-preserver such as river
boats carry, a quantity of candy, chew
ing gum, nuts, etc, evidently the re-
suit of a raid on some country store.
The boys story is that he had bought
the stuff and was going. to Oakland for
the purpose of starting a store, but it
is more than likely he was in quest of
some store already started, as he had in
his skiff a quality of cold chisels and
otter tools, stolen from the railroad
company.

We have no disposition to question the

seated multitude may bow their heads
while Inscriptions of praise go up to Him
who rules over all. Let us listen with
patriotic silence and emotional respect
to the reading of the great charter of
our liberties. Let the songs Of the ma
ton be sung, the grafton be pronounced,
the poem intoned in lofty praise to the
genius of American institutions, ana
after that let us go to such reasonable
revel and jollity, as money in hand, wit
and resource may permit and devise.
Let us have the athletes, the evening
platform in the open, the races at the
parks; pyrotechnics in the sky by all
means, that the heavens may be IL
Illuminated by our patriotism. Let US
have a night parade if possible and with
all possible spectacular display make

lutte of patriotic love. But the Punch

DID TOY GET GIT :"
1t Looks Very Much That Way-The
Ju Sing Case.

Ju Sing was not examined yesterday
for the murder of Eung All Chung, as
had been intended.
As might have been expected, Toy
Get, the man who sWore to the COM

prosecution and the defense appeared
to be at sea regarding his whereabouts.
The result was that the examination
went over until Tuesday.

is to be no exception to the rule.

The intensity of movement IN

bers. Judged by this law, upon which
a noted philosopher and publicist~once
wrote a book, Sacramento as a COM
munty has to reproach itself with a
low average of vigor and intelligence,
else the outrage of planting saloon by
legislative license alongside of church
would not have been contaminated.
The simple truth is, and it will do US
good to face it, we are not producing
the highest social efficiency, nor tend
ing towards an ideal condition. When
a community does not move in that
direction it is propelled ia the opposite.
There is no such thing as standing still.

SENSIBLE NEGROES, THESE.
The Proper Spirit Shown as to the Cause
Of Lynchings.

Richmond, Va, July 27.-The
Banister Baptist association Color
ed), at meeting held Friday at
Houston, adopted the following
resolutions:
We, the members of the Banister
Baptist association, assembled in its
twenty sixth annual session at Hous-
ton, Halifax county, Virginia, hav-
ing noticed with regret the great
number of arrests of men of our
race in various parts of the south
land for the most dastardly, cow
ardly and infamous crimes known to
society, namely: outrageous assault
upon defenseless women;
And whereas this intamy has, ac-
cording to daily reports, increased in
an alarming degree and threatens to
create and perpetuate the greatest
alienation of tho white and blacks,
and it is also destined, if not
stamped out by the good and law
abiding citizens Of our own race, to
suffer in various ways: Therefore,
Be it resolved, That we stamp our
most emphatic condemnation upon
any and all of this wretched and in
famous class who have been or may
be found or known to have COM
mitted such IN outrage against 80
ciety, and pledge our Willingness to
cooperate with the whites to bring
to Justice any and all who have or
may be guilty Of such revoltihg
crime.
Resolved, That we, as pastors
and leaders among our people, will
do all in our power to create among
our people the strongest sentiment
against the crime and the criminal,
and urge them to do all in their power
to assist in bringing to Justice such
lawless characters, be they within or
without our race, wherever such
occurs to humanity.
Resolved, That we commend the
governor of Virginia for his heroic
stand in throwing the strong arm of
the law around those charged with
crime and thereby permitting the
majesty of the law to be upheld,
which law in itself is sufficient to
mete out full justice and punishment
to those who have or may attempt to
outrage it.

DIED ON THE TRAIN.
a Travelling SaltsInnn, MIR. Joseph Rosen
Expires Suddenly
[Tho State, 14th.1

Yesterday afternoon within ten
minutes aftor leaving Newborry, Mr..
JOS. Rosen, travelling salesman
who had boarded the Columbia,
Newborry and Laurens train at that
point, was soen to fall back in his
scat ia the first class car. in few
moments, despite tho efforts made
by DIR. Earglo of Spring Hill, who
happened to be along, to do somo-
thing to save him, he broathod his
last.
Conductor Fowler had tho romans
moved into the secoud- class car
ahead and covered up; in this way
they were brought to Columbia.
Coroner Groen was notified by wiro
and met tho train here, holding an
inqueet at once. The verdict Of the
jury was that Mr.. Rosen camo to his
death from heart disease.
1t appears that the docoasod heard
the train coming to the station at
Newberry and made long run to
catch it. He was completely over
heated and exhausted when he
stepped aboard tho train.
The deceased WAS a man about As
or 80 years of ago and seemed to bo
in prosperous circumstances. Worry
little is known Of him here. Tho ro-
mains were brought up aftor tho i'll
quest to Undertaken Borry's ostab
lishmont. His house was notified in
Charleston and Il message WAS soon
received asking that the remains be
sent there for intormont. They will
go down upon this mornings train.
Mr.. Rosen was on tho road in tho
interest Of Fochtor & Roscn, whole
sale and retail dealers in clothing ut
$50 King street in Charleston. Judg-
ing from card found IN his pocket,
he is supposed to be relatod to
VIM. Rosen, the manufacturer of
parlor suits, lounges, couchos, otc.,

To tho Editor of The State:
Your correspondent reporting Till
mans speech at Tirzah reports him
rs saying (speaking of preachers and
dispensary): "They stand alongside
the barkeepers in their opposition"
This is ono Of those half-truths
that is worse than a straight lio. Tho
dispensary barkeopers arc certainly
not alongside of us. Yet they arc
rumsellers just as assuredly AZ was
any barkooper under tho former
method of whiskey selling-and, in
somo places at least, are tho bar
keepers that are doing the principal
selling.
Senator Tillman knows that bar
Keepers oppose tho dispensary be-
cause they wish return to former
methods. He knows full woll this is
not the purpose Of tho preachors' OPP
position. TO insinuato that tho
preachers and barkeopers' cause is
ono in common is base performance
altogether befitting the man.

AS to the Populists, he never be-

opect for them, for they made fight

He said Mr.. Mayfeld came to his
room last night, and told him that he
saw truth shining in his face when
he made his statement, and that he
must tell him 30, and that he would
always have respect for such an hon
orable man.
He said that whenever he felt any
i'll feeling toward any one he tried to
pluck it out of his heart, and that he
bore no i'll or personal feeling to
Evans when he wrote that letter.
Governor Evans: "And I never
showed you any"
McLaurin: "Not until to day, and
l am very sorry to say So"
Mr.. McLaurin closed by explaining
his position in the last Senatorial
race, and said that he influenced no
one, one way or the other, or tried to
do 80.
He had spoken oyot his time and
said that he had exceeded his
strength, but said that he was not
appealing for sympathy, but that he
appealed for fair play against the in
terference Of Congressman who had
no interest in this fight, Mr.. Nc
Laurin closed amid much applause.
COULD NOT STAND THE STRAIN.
AS he went to his table to gather
up his papers he rested for a few
moments to gain strength, and when
going out to the fresh air he fell,
completely overcome by the strain.
Friends gathered around and did
what they could, and DR.. White
found it necessary to give him two
tablets of nitro glycerine, after which
he rapidly recuperated. He was
taken to the hotel as soon as posi-
BILE, and put to bed, where he did as
we'll as could be expected. A. X.
