A South African on the Race Riot.

To the Editor of The Sun: It forms
queer reading to one like myself lust
returned from South Africa to notice
in the newspapers under the headlines
OF ''Race Riots" etc., that ''Negsoes
were attacked by frepzied mobs," and
"cries OF lynch 'em" were heard from
many quarters. Also THAT the police
freely used their night staves"-on the
Negroes of course! And for what I?
Because Negro stabs q policeman TO
death. feel very sorry for the unfor-
tunate policeman, but is it to be taken
for granted that the Negroes hold q
special brief-fTom the man in the
mOOn-for stabbing?
Amazing though 1t may seem there
are cranks In this country who actually
tell you without blush that they can
not support the Boer cause owing to
their shameful treatment Of the poor
blacks.

Lynch Law and MiScegenation.

In view of the fact that there are so
few charges of crimir al assault against
Negroes in the North whsre there are
no miseegenation laws and so very
many in the Sonth where such laws are
the rule, pertinent question, and one
worthy of serious consideration and dis
cusslon, is, what relation does lynch
law bear to the law of m;scsgenatiOp?
1t Is an aspect of the question which
canuot be ignored by those who are
seeking for the truth. White men

tol VS. Elias Bristol We're made IN the

torney Hoadley, who appeared for the

which was done on June 27, 1899, was
intentional and that the fact was adj
mitted in letter written by Elias Bris-
tol on July II, in which he asked for
giveness. Mr.. Hoadley stated that
Elias BristoFs statement that the en-
tire happenings of the day in question
We're blank in his mind was not true,
for he alluded to what had happened in
the letter
The defence of delirium tremens,"
said Mr.. Hoadley, cannot stand for
there has not been the slightest evil
dence to support it,"
Attorney Ely for the defendant,
argued that Elias Bristol was on the
verge of delirium tremens when he
shot his uncle and that he didn't know
what he was doing.
The damages claimed are $4,000 and
Judge Robinson took the papers.

Chancellor Andrews is a logical be,

did not say so, he talked about ad-
vanced women in such manner as to
leave no doubt 10 the minds Of his audi
tors that he is Of the opinion that sex

that the time is coming when all that

in the state law. under which the Uni

thing about women, but Mrs. Apperson
concluded from the Chancellor's re-
marks that it would always be ignored

as il always has been under his pred
ecessors.
The Omaha deleg cation was the most
harmonious and unanimous OF any at
the Federation. Everyone wanted to
do what everyone wanted her to do, and
there was not one woman in the whole
delegation who wished to be elected to
an office. Two from Omaha were elect
ed, but they we're not delegates.
Mrs. Apperson charmed all by her
sweetness and self control, and her de-
clinstion Of the presidency disappointed
many Of her friends, who believe that
the officers should hold for two terms.
Thursday morning was devoted to the
consideration of domestic science. and
every word written and said was to the

something to say and she says it in a

The women of Nebraska are indeed
fortunate in having such a competent
