THE NEGRO IN MASSACHUSETTS

How long will it be before negroes.
who make white women the victims of
their criminal violence, are lynched In
Massachusetts? There are compare
lively few negroes there, and the per-
centage that is bad, vicious and worth
less-the class that commit crimes
against women-is no doubt very small.
The negro population of the state. how
ever, is increasing, and it may not be
many years before there will be enough
worthless negroes there to stir the peo-
pie up to the point of taking the law
into their own hands by their assaults
on women.
In the Worcester Spy of a recent date
there was an account of the trial of a
negro for assaulting two white women
in that city. According to the evidence
at the trial the assaults were of a char
acter that would have been followed
by lynchings, in all probability. if they
had been committed in the South. The
negro who committed the assaults was
worthless specimen of his race,
the same sort of creature who COM
mits similar assaults in the South. He
was convicted and will not doubt be
severely punished.
Let there be a few more such assaults
in Worcester and its vicinity, or in any
other part of Massachusetts, and there
will be lynchings in that state. The
people in that part of the union are
no more tolerant of assaults on women
by negroes thansthey are in this part,
and they will be just as quick to resort
to mob law when these assaults be-
come more common.
A great many negroes are moving
North, and in the course of few years
there will be very considerable negro
populations in pretty nearly all of the
North Atlantic states. AS the negro
population increases in those states
crimes against white women, commit
ted by negroes, will increase, because
there will be more bad and worthless
men among the negro population.
The Northern people are beginning to
understand that If the same provoca-
South there would be many lynchings
there.
We are not defending lynchings nor
condemning all negroes. We are simply
pointing out that lynchings of negroes
are likely to become quite common in
all parts of the country in the near flu
ture unless negroes cease to attack
white women.
1t is admitted of course that the ne
groes who commit this crime are the
most degraded of their race, but it is
unfortunate that there are any of their
kind. because. they do an infinite
amount of harm by bringing about ill
feeling between the races. 1t is in the
power of the better class of negroes
to check lynchings by cultivating a
sentiment among the people of their
race against the crime which is the
chief cause of them.

Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Hackett is in danger of getting himself
disliked. The impression he is making
as Acting Secretary of the Navy is
that he does not measure up to the po-
sition he is trying to fill, and in trying
to do so is coming very near making
himself ridiculous.
A day or two ago, as reported in the
Washington Post, he notified the cor
respondents that he would not again
see any of them, but that when he had
anything to communicate to the public
he would post 1t in the bulletin board.
Then the newspaper men set in to
have fun with him. They sent their
cards to him in the shape of immense
sheets of brown paper with their names
written on them, and they did various
other things that were calculated to
annoy him in his present dignified
frame of mind. They could not see why
the understudy should shut himself up
in his shell when his principal, when
present, was always so accessible.
And then ii seems that Mr.. Hackett
has been dealing with navy officers of
high rank-with Evans and Schley and
others-in his correspondence as If they
were clerks in his department. This has
made bad impression. 1t is notice.
able therefore that the people are TAX
ing notice of Mr.. Hackett, and are
writing letters to the newspapers about
him, wanting to know whether or not
his temporary elevation to power has
not given him the big head.
No doubt he is a very good sort of
a fellow, all things considered, but
there are some men so constituted that
they lose their grip on common sense
when placed in a position OF power,
however brief their occupation of the
position may be. Secretary Long will
be back in his place in the Navy De-
partment soon. and then Mr.. Hackett
will sink out OF sight again, but the
enemies he has made will not forget
him. They win remember him when he
needs friends.

His Hoofs Were Covered.

A conjurer, after a performance, was
one evening returning to his hotel in
cab, and. being fond of a joke, he
resolved to mystify cabby, says Lon
don Answers.
When the cab stopped he alighted.
and. slipping his hand into his pocket,
he drew out a handful of gold

ing a sovereign to the man, who still
sat on his box.
Cabby caught-nothing, and as the
coin could not be found he accused his
fare of "bilking" him.
Are you sure II is not in your pock-
ct ?" asked the conjurer.
Slipping his fingers therein. he drew
out a sovereign.
Take it and be gone" he said, as
he tossed it TO the cabby. who again
failed to catch the elusive coin.
The conjurer, thinking the game had
gone far enough, now held out a 5-shill-
ing piece.

The payment of the full per cent.
on the first income bonds of the Cen
trail of Georgia Railway justifies the
hope that a dividend will be paid on
the second incomes next year. Indeed,
Maj. Hanson, chairman of the execu-
tive board, in an interview published in
the Morning News yesterday, expressed
the opinion that there would be divi-
dend paid on those securities at that
time. 1t all depends, of course, on the
business of the road, and that depends
upon the condition of the country and
the roads management.
The probability is that the amount of
is not large. 1t has been several years
since the property was reorganized, and
there have been may discouraging ru-
mors. Doubtless the holders of the
first incomes sold largely to specula-
tors in New York. 1t would be natur-
ally supposed that the same thing Is
true in respect to the second incomes,
but the chances are that there is a
large amount of them held in the state.
The reason is that until the present
year the price of them was so low that
the owners of them thought it as well
TO hold as to sell them. 1t is the un-
derstanding that great many sold
their holdings during the recent adj
vance in the prices of all the junior Sc
curities. Still there is. ground for think
ing that the amount of the second and
third incomes still held by citizens of
the state is large.
The gross earnings of the property for
the last fiscal year were nearly $3.50. 900
more than they were for the previous
year. This ought to have yielded, and
probably did yield. a net income of
$3.50, 900 greater than that Of the fiscal
year 1900. Assuming that such was the
case, If the money had not been spent
in betterments there would have been
enough to pay more than per cent.
on the second incomes.
Doubtless the money spent on better
ments was wisely spent and will enable
the road, all the sooner. to pay full
dividends on the second incomes. The
steady Improvement in the property in
dictates that the states prosperity is
steadily increasing.

How to Hold Prisoners.

The police and detectives around the
City Hall, says the Louisville Courier
Journal, were astonished Saturday
when they saw H. L. Jones, a. deputy
sheriff of Antaugaville, Ala, at the
Central police station prepare to take
jim Jones, a colored prisoner, back
to that state. Jones is wanted in Ala
bama on the charge of burglary, and
il said that he jumped a bond of 5000
seven months ago. The Louisville po-
lice say that he is a bad negro.
Deputy Sheriff Jones, when the time
arrived for him to go to the depot,
drew a long strap from his valise.
whats that?' inquired one of the Of
ficers.
I'm going to bind him with that"
answered Jones.
What? Not going to use handouts?
Do you mean that you are going to try
and hold him with that fiimsy thing ?
Say, you had better brought handouts
and shackles."
Handouts and understanding, y
answered the Alabamian. II amt got
any use for 'em. They might be all
right for white men, but give me the
good odd Southern way of handling
niggers."
Then he buckled one end of the strap
to the negro's right arm above the ell
bow, and the other end to his left BIZ
cops. The strap held both arms at
the negro's side, and he was well pin
toned.
Deputy Sheriff Jones was the typical
officer of the South. Tall and spare,
with an unmistakable bulging in the
region of his pistol pocket.
''You see, you fellows don't know
niggers like me-" he said.
And all the while he was adjusting
the straps so that the negro would feel
no pain.
"Jim knows me, and know Jim. If
he tries any monkey business on me,
he knows what he'll get. Don't you
Jim?"
And Jim nodded.
why, raised this niger, and when
he got old enough to have a name, and
he didn't have one, said, your name
is Jim Jones' and that's been his name
ever since"
When the strap was securely adjust
ed the officer turned and asked:
Jim, does it hurt you now?'
Then the deputy started to rearrange
the whole contrivance.
You'll miss your train IL you don't
hurry" said an officer.
"Train or no train. I'm not going
until Jim feels all right"
Then Jones took a rope from his
pocket. fastened it to the strap and
tied a loop at the other end.
I'm ready to go now" he said. You
are sure 1t isn't hurting you, Jim
The police marveled. Certainly the
negro was shown more kindly consid-
Grafton than any other negro prisoner

enough to each other to be connected
by bridges. on one of them, the largest,
it is his purpose to erect castle, and
on the others cottages will be built.
The islands have been placed in the
hands of a landscape gardener with
instructions to make them as beautiful
as it is possible for the imagination to
picture them.
Mr.. Lawson is a very remarkable
man in many respects. 1t has not been
so very long since he was comparative
ly poor. Now he is rated as one of the
very rich men of Boston. After he got
started making money it seemed that
he could not undertake any speculation
that did not yield him profit.
But it is a question If he gets a great
deal of pleasure out of his money. He
seems to be all the while devising ways
for spending 1t, and yet it is probable
that he does not spend his income any
year. His islands off the coast of
Maine, however will require a lot of
money to make of them what he would
like to have them.
And when his castle and gardens and
Conservatives are completed it Is
doubtful if he will be resident of his
islands much of the year. 1t is probable
that he will visit them once in a while,
just as the owner of Biltmore, near
Asheville, N. c., visits his place, which
cost many millions of dollars. The
money of most very rich men appears
to give its possessors very little happi-
ness

Uncle Sam, also, has a strike on his
hands. 1t is at the Washington navy
yard. The bricklayers at work there
asked for an increase of pay from 81
TO $4.5e per day, asserting that brick
layers on private contracts were re-
ceiving the latter price. Acting Sec
rotary Hackett wouldn't listen to the
demand, saying that if the men didn't
like the governments pay they could
quit. The men took counsel together
and resolved to strike. When they
went out Mr.. Hackett began to look
at the affair in a different light, and
ordered an investigation of the brick
layers trade outside of government
work. Should it be found that men
outside are getting $3.50 per day. it is
said the Acting Secretary will order
the advance made in the navy yard.

The President will return to the capital
probably next week, and the various

quence of which numerous congress-
men will find it to their advantage to
spend some time in Washington in adj

Thus the busy season at Washington
is almost upon us. However. the coun-

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chattanooga Times (Dem.) says
The story that Russia, Germany and
France will join in a friendly meddling
in South Africa is n self-evident fake.
Friendly Intervention, after the ag-
gresSor has wiped out his enemies, de-
stroyed their governments, annexed
their territories and imprisoned their
army, is simply and very clearly inn
possible. 1t must be forcible, preceded
by an ultimatum, or nothing. And the
three Powers named are not, by long
way, prepared to order John Bull to go
out as the alternative of being put out
The alliance mentioned could set the
British empire back, cripple it, pos
sibly reduce IL TO a third-rate Power,
but they cannot drive that people out
of South Africa, never. But, really the
matter isn't worth any extended no,
tice."
The Pittsburg (Pa.) Dispatch (Rep)
says: ut is evident that Alabama has
exercised ingenuity in producing a suf-

On Labor Day an Irish athlete is
going to try to cover twenty-five feet
in a running broad jump in Long ISL
and City. He has already the worlds
record of "a feet liza inches. and will
try to eliminate the odd fraction OF
an inch. Ten years ago the record
was % feet 3% inches. showing that
while the horses and the ships have
been cutting down their time on track
and ocean, man has been adding to his
laurels as a jumper. Still the man
is a long way behind the achieve
ments of some other familiar jumpers
whose feats he can never hope to dupli-
cate. While the man clears a little over
four times his length in a running
broad jump, the grasshopper from a
standing start jumps probably fifty
times its length and the flea several
hundred times its length. Had the Irish
athlete the power OF legs OF the flea,
ne could easily jump half mile,
