not be delayed until after the rest OF the
system has been completed and the wells
given more thorough test. as stated in
Tuesdays paper. The connection OF the

The new system is 10 be so arranged
that the waterworks viii never be shut
down. There viii be two pumps. two boil
ers, two main lines and each well will be
operated separately and Independently Of
the others. BY having duplicate machin-
cry. when one Of the pumps, boilers or
mains suffers break. the other can be
turned on, and the attention of mechanics
turned to the repair of the broken part.
BY having the wells each operated sepa-
rately and independently. the flow can be
either increased or diminished as the oc-
casion demands, and in this way Black
well will have one Of the most useful,
convenient and up-to-date systems in the
west
The eight wells will be put down imme-
diately. the worl1men needing something
to engage their attention pending the ar

NEGRO UNDER
ARREST ON A
GRAVE CHARGE
Supposed to be the Man Who
Set Fire to EarIboro.
FOUGHT FOR HIS LIBERTY
Gun Used by Officer TO Reduce
Him to Submission.

Shawnee. o. T.. Sept. 2s.-An effort has
been made to burn the town of Earlboro.
The Quill Of this city gives the details as
follows:
1T VIII be remembered that about two
months ago the Quill reported a bastard
y attempt to burn the town of EarIooro
by setting fire to a frame business house

Rodman. situated in the center Of town
which act. but for the timely. discovery Of
the flames when they flashed up in the
early morning hours. would have left the
best part OF that fourishing little town in
ashes in a few hours
The affair. caused great excitement at
the time. and bloodhounds were sent for
and put on the trail and two suspects
were placed under arrest Since that
time the matter has remained a mystery
Until Yesterday evening. when Mr. Rod
nan, who is a deputy under Sheriff
Schram, arrested negro named Baxter
Surber. charging him with the crime of
arson. Early last evening Deputy Rod
man appeared here with his prisoner
whom he took to the office Of Justice E.
d. Reaser to have him bound over TO
await the action Of the grand jury; but
the justice being absent from the Office.
Deputy Rodman thought there would be
no danger in removing the chains from
the prisoners limbs and did so, but he
had reckoned wrong. for the moment the
negro, a big and burly fellow, thought he
saw an opportunity, he made break for
liberty. The officer at once grabbed him
and in the struggle that took place the
powerful negro was about to get the
best of him. when Mr.. Rodman struck
him on the forehead with his gun-one of
the hammerless pattern. which was acci-
dentaIly fired. This cowed the desperate
fellow and he was securely placed in the
irons again.
About this time Justice Reaser appeared
and fixed the negros bond at $1,000 which
he was unable to give, and after certify
ing the case TO the grand jury the justice
ordered him taken 10 the county jail at
Tecumseh, where later he was taken. The
report Of the gun caused large crowd
to collect. and on inspection revealed the
fact that its discharge was purely acci-
1ental. for the bali having gone straight |

taken before Police Judge Norman, the
negroes were released and the Wolfs
fined. This ought to have stopped the
matter right there, but the discharge Of
the colored men and fning OF the Volts
seemed to IRE the prejudice OF certain
parties against the coIored race 20 such
an extent that they became crazed. and
almost a riot was the result. Anderson
and the other colored man were set upon
and abused. and absolutely run out Of
town; and the officers seemed unable TO
do anything TO protect them. In fact,
City Marshal Fuller was held by several
parties while the disgraceful affair was
going on, thus being prevented from go
ing to the relief Of The colored men.
City Attorney Dudley has been prompt
in filing complaints against the partici-
pants. one Of them has paid his fine for
obstrucung an officer. and warrants are
out for TWO others. They viii also be
prosecuted by the county for rioting and
melting a riot.
The result has been an awakening of
the best people. and a determination that
these affairs shall cease. The resolutions
OF the city council and Commercial club
appended hereto show the feehng, and
there is a positive determination that
the incitors of the riot and the partici-
pants therein shall be vigorously prose-
cuted. There was very large attend
ance al the Commercial club meeting and
strong speeches denOuncing the outrage
were made, with not a single word of
apology or sympathy with the particip-
ants. and business is certainly meant. A
committee OF i've Of the leading business
men was appointed TO see that the parti-
cipants and incitors are vigorously prose-
cuted; which committee was given to un-
derstand emphaucally that the whole
OF the club would back them
