DAMAGES FOB LYEOHIEG.

LAWRENCE BROWN. q colered man
who was proven to be innocent OF
charge of inceudiaTism (house-burn-
ine) in Orsngeburg County, South Oar
oliaa, was discharged upon the request
of the prosecuting attorney. But the
mob was determined 80 have his life
and he was lynched 1t StiltoH Station,
Is. C.
The new state constitution provides
that the county is liable and the father
of Brown entered suit for ten thous-
and dollars. The first trial in Septem-
Der. 1898, resulted in verdict tor the
county, the Judge presiding holding
that it only applied to cases where
prisoners were taken from the officers
Of the law and lynched.
The State Supreme Court. it will be
remembered reversed this opinion and
the case was called on the Sd inst. ir
the court at Orangebury, 8. @. The
evidence against the county was over
whelming.
Browns body wss riddled with but
llets and his hands and feet tied, en-;
lyet counsel for the county had the AL
dacity to argue that Brown committed
Ispicide.

"My friends, IL gives me great pleas
ure to meet with you on this memorial
day. The noblest sentiment OF the hu.
man heart. after love Of God, is love OF
country, and that includes love OF
home, the corner stone OF strength and
safety. Your race has demonstrated
its patriotism by its sacrifices, It's love
of the flag by dying for it. That is the
greatest test Of fidelity and loyalty.
The nation has appreciated the valor
and patriotism of the black men OF the
United States. They not only fougnt
in Cuba. but in the Philippines, ana
thew are carrying the flag as the sym,

SPEAKING OF Prof. VIZ. E. HoLMEs
retirement from the Atlanta Baptist
College, the Augusta, GEORGIA BAPTIST
has this to say:
"He is native of Augusta, and en- :
tered the Augusta Institute under the
tuielsge of the lameDted DR.. j. T.. Rob
ert. BE had not been in school long
before DR.. Robert. discovered that he
was youth OF exceptional good quail
ties. de was exceedingly bright and
quick intellectually ard so gentleman
ly and courtly in mis- deportment that
he easily left others behind him in the
schoolroom. Thoroughly conscien-
tious, with lofty ideas this young man
told in his every day life OF the'power-
ful influence OF . pure woman in the
person of Mts. Anthony who had rear
ed him, which had been exercised over
him in the days Of his childhood"
And again:
'Prof. Holmes began the work OF
teaching while yet q student and Tor
several years was SO designated. Fin
ishIng all courses taught in the Insti-
tute at Augusta and afterward the
) summary in Atlanta, Prof: Holmes
was given full professorship and for
several years he has stood next to the
president ia the faculty. That he has
met the full measure OF the place oc-
cupied in the fasulty Of the college
none win deny"
This is the profound scholar, the able
professor, the brilliant Christian, who
has been virtually denied admittan &c
to the doors Of the Atlanta Baptist Col
leRe unless he disAvoWed his opinions
relative to Negro enterprises. Dan the
American Baptist Home Mission Socie-
~ defend itself before the people OF
this country upon any such PROPOSE
ton ?
When President ANDREWS OF BRowS'S
University was asked to resign because
OF the political views which he held, the
indignation of the people knew no
bounds, and we greatly mistake the
temper OF our own people if they sub
NIT without protest TO the remarkable
proceedings which were directed to
take place at the Atlanta Bapt. College.
When Rev. DIS. w. J. WHrrE, stamps
such . recommendation upon the fore
head OF q man as is contained in the
lines, we have quoted, the man is all
right; but there is something all wrong
in the system BY which he suffers.
