One good thing about a women's club
Il the fact that 1t enables Its members
to tell every week in set sketches Just
why the club exists. Another delight
ful thing is Its placid satisfaction over
the weekly increase in the number OF

sition on the part Of the press and the

Atlanta, Ga. Feb. 23.-A special
from Columbia. South Carolina, to the
Constitution says:
The most revolving crime ever per

lima was committed Mt Lake City,
Williamsburg county, ut O'Clock this

There was protest at Bakers np-
pOintment. but 1t was not very Wig
orOus one. Three months ago, as the
postmaster was leaving the office at
night In company with several colored
men, he was fired on from ambush.
but It was not known that the would
be assassin was prompted by other
than personal malice. Since then Ba-

was hurt. but 1t was supposed to con-

before that Senators Tillman and Nc
Lauren and Congressman Horton had
asked the postmaster general to re-
move Baker because OF his color and
the request had been refused. Baker
did moi move his family and gave no
evidence of being frightened. He felt
confident OF protection from Wash

At I o'clock this morning torch
was applied to the postotiice and Ba-
ker's house. Back, Just within the
line OF light. were over hundred
white men. armed with pistols and
shotguns. BY the time the fire aroused
the sleeping family the crowd began
firing into the building. A hundred
