The small boy was very much in
evidence All Halloween night, and
misplaced signs and overturned
outhouses were numerous. Old
timers say that Halloween origi-
mated in the time of Adam. After
partaking of the forbidden fruit
Eve was frightened and concealed
herself in the dense shrubbery that
there abounded. Adam wanted
her for something, probably to get
his supper, for he did not have
any buttons to sew on; so he went
around throwing cabbages and
other vegetables into the bushes
and yelling "Hello Eve."-Colo-

The Chafee battery of light ar
tillery, of which Harvey Wood is
member, was mustered out Sun
day. Each man in the battery
will be allowed days pay and
rations for every twenty miles be-
tween Denver, the place of enlist
ment, and Fort Hancock, N. /.
This means that each private in
the battery will receive about
s85. so in cash by way of travelling
expenses, in addition to regular
pay and other allowances. Under
this arrangement, of course, the
boys will have to pay their own
travelling expenses, but as these
will amount to only about $50, the
journey will net each man about
SIS in cold cash.

Negro Postmaster Murdered.
His Baby Also Killed and His wife and
Pour Children shot.

The most revolving crime ever perpetrat-
ed by white men in South Carolina was
committed at Lake City, Williamsburg
county, at o'clock Tuesday morning,
when Postmaster Baker, a negro, and his
family were burned out of their home
the postmaster and babe in arms killed
and his wife and three daughters shot and
manned for life Baker was appointed
postmaster three months ago. Lake City
is town of 300 inhabitants, but the negro
population in its vicinity is large. There
was protest at Bakers appointment, but
1t was not a very vigorous one.
On the night of the 18th many bullets
were fired into Bakers house. Senators
Tillman and McLaurin and Congressman
Horton requested Bakers removal on &C
count of his color but the request was re-
fused
When the fire was started over 100 white
men armed with rifles and pistols were
gathered lust within the line of light By
the time the fire aroused the sleeping fam.
lily, consisting Of the postmaster, his wife
four daughters, son and an snfant, the
crowd began firing into the building a
hundred bullet holes we're made through
the twin boarding and many found Judgment
in the people within.
Baker was first 10 reach the door, and he
fell dead Just within the threshold, being
shot in several places. The mother had
the baby in her arms and had reached the
door over her husbands body when a bull
let crashed through its skull and it fell 70
the floor She was shot in several places.
Two Of the girls had their arms broken
close to the shoulder and will probably lose
them Another of the girls is believed Il
be fatally wounded The boy and the
fourth girl escaped with slight injuries
The bodies Of Baker and the infant were
cremated in the building. All mail matter
was destroyed.
