MISS JEWETT'C
 PLAN SUCCESSFUL
Takes Charge of a Family of
 South Carolina Negroes.
FAMOUS BAKER LYNCHING
Colored Minister from Boston Says the Young Lady Does Not Rep- resent Better Glass of White
 or Colored People

Charleston, s. C., August 5.-Lillian Clay ton Jewett, the Boston giTl who recently created a sensation among the negroes of that city by declaring that she would come to Charleston and take north with her the family of the late Frazier B. Baker, who was lynched at Lake City, s. C., in 1897, with a view to beginning an agitation against mob law, has carried out her de- sign.
 Miss Jewett arrived here Friday morning accompanied by her mother and a young man named R. c. Larsen, who is a Boston journalist. She had frequent conferences with the Baker woman and her friends, and as a result sine left here for Boston this afternoon accompanied by the entire Baker family, the mother and five children.
 Miss Jewett said her plans for the fu- ture were not yet formulated, but she pro- posed to hold mass meetings throughout the north to arouse popular sentiment against lynching and mob law generally She did not regard her movement as an issue between the races, but was advocat- ing the cause of humanity. irrespective of color or condition. She said she was edu- cated in Virginia and had some knowledge of the southern people, and she was well aware that the better elements in the south joined heart and soul with the better ele- ment in the north in demanding a halt In the commission of the outrages that re- gently have shocked the world. She said that since her Boston address was made shae has received many threatening letters from the south, but to these she paid no heed, knowing that they did not come from a source worthy of consideration.
 The Rev. J. l.. Dart, colored minister of this city, who has recently spent some time in Boston, returned to the city today and opposed violently the removal of the Bakers from Charleston. He declares that Miss Jewett did not represent the better class of white or colored people in Boston He says she and those who stand with her merely want to get control of the Bakers to make notoriety and money for them selves.

 Poles Erected for Electric Line

Huntsville, August 5-(Special)-A start ling discovery was made yesterday by the workmen engaged in blasting out a trench for water main at the Huntsville hotel corner when they began their days work. On the evening before they had been en- gagged in blasting out a very large rock and left one drill hole unfinished and open. When they assembled yesterday the drill holder and drivers gathered up their tools and prepared to finish drilling the hole, when some one suggested that they had better probe it first. The suggestion was acted upon, and a dynamite cap and stick Of dynamite six inches long were fished out If the discovery had not been made in time the first blow of hammer would have caused an explosion that would have killed at least six men and caused an im- mense amount of damage to property. The matter caused a small-siZed sensation, and the police believe that an attempt was made to assassinate some one of the men. They have taken up the case, and an arrest is expected.
