BAND CONCERT.
First Open Air Program Given at Councilman
0ost'c's by Lafayette Band.

The first open air band concert of the
the lawn at Councilman T.. Dostie's
house on Washington street by the
Lafayette Band Of IS pieces. The pro-
gram began ut 1.i3 sharp. and it was
not long before the yard was crowded
with people rs far as Northern avenue.
The music could be heard all over
the North End. and many people who
did not go were able to sit in their
windows and on their piazZas and en-
joy it. The work of the band showed
the hard practice they have been put
ting in all through the past winter and
was greatly enjoyed by all within
hearing.
Ice cream and cake We're on sale, and
these tables were well patronized. and
indeed if II showers had not come on
about the time they did there would
not have been cream enough to sup
ply half of those wishing it.
After the playing of the second piece
word was brought to the bass drum
mer that his wife had been taken sud
denly i'll and he was obliged to go
home. burt A. w. Folgcr Of the Olympic
Rand. kindly volunteered to take his
pace for the remainder of the evening.
1t was Il very pleasing entertainment
and all who had the pleasure of listen
ing to it VIII unite in hoping that these
band concerts will become a regular

had but little time to look over the

Friends in Brookhaven sadly regret
to hear of the death of Mrs. Abbie
Thigpen Sibley, of McComb. She
departed this life on last Sunday night,
surrounded by husband, children and
other devoted relatives. Mrs. Sibley
was a splendid Christian woman
cultured and capable, loving and be-
loved. We mourn with those who
mourn in this sad dispensation OF
Providence and rejoice at the sweet
memories of life so beautiful and
consistent. May Gods abiding love
and care be over the motherless chill
dren and the bereaved husband and
father.

Judge Powell Working to Clear
the State Docket.
Law-BreakerS Given to Under
stand that His Honor is Not
Holding u Mock Court.
Leaders of the LawIess Gang in south
Lincoln Indicted.

The criminal docket was called in
the Circuit Court Monday morning
ard various cases set for trial at diff
ferent dates during the week.
The trial of Neal Thompson, indicted
for murder, was set for Wednesday
morning at 9 o'clock, and the trial of
Albert Washington, charged with mur-
der, was set for Thursday morning at
8 o'clock Both of these are negroes
and their victims were colored also.
Several blind tiger cases were called
and tried during the morning hour, re-
sulting generally in convictions. Some
of the accused who had forfeited their
bonds and failed to appear were tried
and convicted in their absence. In
of liquors, unless there are extenuating
facts and circumstances, Judge Powell
infiicts the extreme penalty of the law
"a fine of 800 and three months i'm
prisonment on the county farm.
The fines imposed by the Court on
Monday aggregated Sl,4S0.
Up to this morning the Grand Jury
had returned 16 true bills. Wes.
! Brown, one of the leaders who lately
! figured in the disturbance at Bogne
Chitto, has been indicted for assault
with intent to kill and murder, and
also for carrying concealed weapons,
and arrested and placed under bond
for trial at this term. John Albritton,
who has so far eluded arrest, has also
been indicted for participation in the
same affair Jim Bob Brown, another
member of the same crowd, has had
three indictments returned against
him for arson, and is now in the coun-
ty Jail awaiting trial, which is expected
to occur during the week. He is
charged with being one of the parties
who burnt the Montgomery church and
two schoolhouses near by several
months ago.
When jim Bob Browns case was
called and most of the witnesses we're
reported absent, Judge Powell fined
each absentee S25 and ordered attach
ments issued for every one who did
not answer to his name, directing the
sheriff to keep them under arrest when
found until discharged by the court.
The court seems resolved to make
good his words to the grand
jury to do all possible to bring
the lawless characters in South Lin
coin to justice, and does not intend to
be thwarted by dodging and recalci-
trant witnesses.
A forfeiture was ordered on the 500
bond of John Albritton, on previous
indictment for assault with intent to
kill and murder Martin Murray in
Bogue Chitto.
The State does not contain two more
earnest, courageous and conscientious
officials than Judge Powell and Dis
trict attorney Greaves, and if the law
abiding citizens of the county will give
them their active co operation, they
will soon redeem the good name of
Lincoln from the stigma placed upon
it by reckless and defiant criminals.
The leader., 1901-11-13

A. w. Lampkin, the young man Of
Wesson who several months ago was
incarcerated in the Insane Hospital
for having threatened the life of a
young lady who refused to marry him
and who was afterward adjudged of
unsound mind, is now suing three
physicians of his home town for 900
damages. He was in the Hospital nine
days, when he was released.
The above paragraph, which was
published in last weeks LEADER, was
excepted to by Mr.. c. B. Lampkin, of
Wesson, brother of the young man
referred to, whose communication on
the subject appears elsewhere in to-
days paper. The LEADERS paragraph
was based on and condensed from a
dispatch which appeared in some of
our exchanges and was published with
no thought or design of doing injustice
to or misrepresenting Mr.. Limpkin
or any fact connected with the Wesson
affair referred to. The fact that the
young man was discharged from the
State Insane Hospital by Chancellor
Conn as sane, on proceedings before
him on a writ of habeas corpus, was so
generally known it did not occur to us
as necessary to specifically mention it
in our paragraph above, which was pub
lished purely as an item of current
news. Mr.. C. B. Lampkin's communi-
cation corrects some erroneous i'm
pressions made upon US and doubtless
upon many others by sensational re-
ports previously published by the
press.

WilI-o'-the-Wisp Salvation.
A well known rector of an east end
church was approached one day by a
lady who said she desired to rent a
seat in row nearest the door of his
church. The rector responded that the
seats in that row were all free and that
she was at liberty to occupy any one Of
them, but she persisted, saying that
she desired to have it for her own.
Being somewhat curious as to her
reasons, the clerical gentleman said,
"But, madam. tell me why you wish to
sit so far backW
After some hesitancy she responded
that she simply couldn't bear to have
any one "sit behind her."
"Yet you will be sitting behind 9TH
ers. who perhaps feel the same way"
said the rector laughingly.
"That may be-" replied the devout
lady earnestly, but you know / have
such a wretched little wisp Of hair at
