A HORRIBLE DISCLOSURE,

A most horrible state Of depravity
was developed in the case of Ethel
and Villa Black, two young white
girls. and William Roberts, an Afro
American man, all charged with disor-
derby conduct. Some of the disclos-
ures made by the testimony intro
duced into the case are extremely re-
voting and are unfit. fer print The
conditions revealed are the most
shocking to the common decency and
the morality of our city, and it shows
that the appalling state of affairs
needs immediate reformation. There
was an expression of indignation made
bv the spectators present. Policeman
Henry Harrison, who made the ar
rest, said that he went to house at
the corner of Cedar and Orange streets
att O'Clock this morning to investi-
gate the conditions reported to be ex-
listing there. The officer said that he
went to a room in the house and there
found the man and the two girls occu-
plying the same room Jacksonville,

From reliable witnesses present at
the trial we learn that there was moth

ing out of the ordinary in the case
except the fact that the girls were
white and the man black. There are
thousands of such cases, with colors
reversed all oyer the South, but no
policeman would think of making an
arrest and no Southern Judge would
punish a white man for eonsorting
with an Afro-A wom n 1865
The white man Of the South uses
his social position and money to de
bauch the pretty Afro American girls
and many Of them are not so partic-
ular about the beauty Of their victims.
