the event with special ices crowned with

assured the italian public in their works

THE NEGROES INCENSED
OVER THE BRUTAL TREATMENT OF A MEM
Der OF YOUN6'S REGIMENT.
Lieutenant Christmas Protege Of Jim Young
Shoots a Private Of his Company
in the Back.

Beaufort. y. c., August A.
Especial. There is great indigna-
ton among white and colorcd
alike at the brutal treatment ac-
corded the privates in Jim Young's negro.
regiment Mt Fort Macon. This brutality
eliminated in the deliberate shooting
in the back of private of Company {,
of Raleigh. by Christmas, second lieu
tenant of the same company. The facts
in the ease are very hard to obtain, as
they are studiously concealed by the
officers and the privatcs are afraid to
TALK
Young. when questioned III regard to
tine affair refused to discuss it beyond
admitting that the shooting had occur
red. He refused to state what the of
Tense of the private WAS that brought
about the shooting The facts as far as
asccrtainahle, were that the private had
been in Morchcad City, and had gotten
drunk. On his return to camp he was
placed under arrest and was III the
hands Of two soldiers. Christmas inter
fcrcd and the drunken private sworc
at him, Christmas thercupon drew his
revolver and fired. the ball striking the
negro in the back just below the should
or and inilicting a serious wound. After
firing the shot Christmas snapped his
pistol at least twice again in deliberate
attempt to finish his murderous work,
but the pistol missed fire. One version
of the affair is that the drunken private
had Ratchet, which was taken from
him, and he then drew a knife where
upon Christmas shot him. This does
not square very well, however. with the
undiSputed fact that the negro was
shot in the back
The officers of the regiment arc in
clncd to treat the matter lightly, and
quite as Il matter of course.
1t is certain, however, that Christmas
will he Courtmarialcd when the attcn-
ton of the department is called to the
matter. The privatcs are greatly in
censcd. but are too much frightened to
say anything openly. 1t is notorious
fact that the priyatcs in the regiment
have been treated worse than conyicts
all along. For an officer to address Il
private as Il white officer would address
Il white private is II rare exception. APP
parcntly the officers consider it their
main business to lord it over the men i'll
the ranks in Il fashion that is contrary
to all the intcnts of army regulations.
There are not fifty priyatcS in the regi-
mcnt who would enlist if they were well
out of the regiment.

A New rorpe do Net.

As a protection against the action
Of torpedoes our warships were pro-
vided with wire-netting shields, or
crinolines, which can be expanded by
spars so as to form wall around the
vessels sides. Upon which some in
genious inventor gave the travelling
dsh-shaped destroyer cutting i'm
plement at it's head which could pene-
trate the wire screen. A new form of
crinoline has now been introduced
which possesses mesh of such con-
struction that it cannot be pierced.
But the invention probably comes too
late; for if any lesson is to be learned
from recent events, it is that the tor
pedo in naval warfare is of such Sec
ondary Importance that it may be al
most neglected altogether. We have
learned lately that fighting ships
armed with modern guns need not get
TO close quarters to work terrible de-
struction upon one another. A couple
Of miles separating the attacking ves-
sci and that with which she is en-
gagged is regarded as near range;
and no torpedo is effective at quar-
ter of that distance. Quick firing
guns and accurate craftsmanship are
the far more important items to at
tend to, and American perfection in
both these respects has really de-
terinined the issue in the present war.

An Oak Tree 10000 Years Old.

An extraordinary discovery, and

siderable interest in antiquarian
circles in Lancashire and Cheshire,
has been made at Stockport. During

the town some workmen came across
what has since proved to be massive
oak tree, with two immense branches.
Professor Boyd Dawkins, the we'll
known antiquary, is of opinion that
the tree is one Of the giants of pre-
historic times, and he says that the
tree is certainly 10000 years old. The
corporation of Stockport is at loss
what to do with the gigantic fossil,
which is supposed to weigh about
