A BEAUFORT SENSATION.
DisreputabIe white Men Flee From
Wrath of Citizens.

Wrath of Citizens.
Beaufort, s. c.. May ia decided SEN
sation was created here last night when
some thirty odd masked citizens silently
proceeded with military precision to a
house in Ward 6, where two white men,
who have for several years held respon-
sible and lucrative positions at the Port
Royal Naval Station, lived with two ne
gro women, in open defiance of public
opinion.
The place was raided one night last
week by the police. on which occasion,
both men with their female companions
were routed out at midnight, and on the
following morning the Mayor discovered
an anonymous letter in his yard which
was of a scandalous nature, and while
he could not, with any degree of GER
tainty, detect the author of the infamous
production, circumstantial evidence was
strong against the men. who were at once
notified to quit the town by certain day.
This they refused to do until yesterday
when one of the men became alarmed and
left The other. however, came up as
usual on the naval station boat at p. m.
yesterday. and presumably he left the
town Immediately afterwards as the
house was unoccupied when the outraged
citizens went there.

KIMBELL HAS PLENTY OF PLUCK.
Bought stock in c., n. & s. as an In
vestment.

Columbus Ga May 15.--Mr. ]. B. Kim
bell, who stopped the transfer Of the G.
r. e. S. road to the Central at Rome to-
DAY. is one OF the few men here who
bought stock in the road as an invest
ment, believing it would be extended TO
Columbus as originally intended.
When President Williamson came here
some years ago in the interest of his line,
Columbus had recently built two roads
and gave him little encouragement. Mr..
Kimbell says he secured stock in the
road to amount to seven thousand dol
lars, as a business investment and not as
a matter of sentiment He has been
watching recent developments carefully
and had said he would protect his interest
as best he could. But the legal process
Of stopping the transfer was a complete
surprise to Columbus.
Mr. Kimbell is a prominent local insur-
enee man and was brought into pnomi-
hence two years ago as president of the
Street Fair, which he made a success,
when every one thought he would fail.
He has plenty of pluck and has the repu-
cation of holding on when once he enters a
night. He is making this one alone so far
as Columbus is concerned.
