that night through fear Of being called
as witness at the trial.
II was standing right across Lincoln
avenue from Mrs. Althouse's place,
and saw Mr.. Sexton on the porch and
saw Mrs. George shoot him. l was
afraid they might do something to me
II l told what l had seen, SO l left
home and lave travelled all over the
country since then" said the boy when
assured by Judge Tuthill that nothing
would happen to him If he told the
truth. Young Hogan's father is R.
M. Hogan, superintendent of the Ault-
mann Manufacturing company, and
well known in Canton. Judge Tuthill
directed that the case be continued to-
morrow. The boy was before the court
on the charge Of disorderly conduct.

Senator Beverldee In Quarantine.

Indianapolis, July 25.--A letter from
Senator Albert J. Beveridge. dated at
Nagasakl, Japan, July 3. says that he
is in quarantine at that place on ac-
count of the Asiatic bubonic plague.
He says: Our authorities here did all
they could to get me released, and
would have succeeded. but Japan is
panicky with fear of the plague. The
restraint is most stringent This plague
is unknown in the Philippines. If l
could have come direct from the Phil
ippines to Japan or America all would
have been well. But the ships stop at
Hong Kong and at Canton, and both
places are hotbeds of the plague"

: The Evening Journal says: "The
Rev. Charles G. Collins, the negro
preacher, who served six months in
Kent county Jail for violating the
registration law, has been appoint
ed pastor Of church at Jefferson
City, Ohio"
The testimony that convicted
Collins was untrustworthy and the
man should never have been cen
demned, but then, somebody had to
be made the scape goat and a poor,
ignorant negro was scared into
swearing that Collins had offered
him a dollar to get registered with
and then denied it. But the man
was compelled to repeat his story
to the Court, and the judges before
whom the trial took place, believed
it. How different it would have
been If a colored man had sworn
away the liberty Of a white man.
Then not one word he said would
have been credited. Note the DIFF
ference between the punishment
melted out to Collins and the punish
ment given the rascals who altered
the returns of the election. But
then they were all white men and
knew better, but the law made
distinction, because why? The
cause of justice suffered in their
miscarriage of trial.
