BISauAnroS, May a-Fifteen fine jersey
vows on the whitney's Point Stock Farm
went on q di-graceful spree last Monday
ard almost frightened tho men In charge
10 thom out Of ,hcir Wits.
For a long time no one knew just what
was the matter with the COWS They went
recling aoro-- the fields like "a LOT Of drunken
soldiers, rolling their eyes, and every once
In awhile giving vent To the most hideous
hovls. When they got tired they either
leauei against one another OF against tho
fenc--. and that was the ~ay the men
found them when they screwed up enough
courage 10 81 cut In the feid and inves,i-
gate.
4 hurry call was seLt Ia B~iushsrnton
for a veterinary, bccause there wns such
u-nmis'akHhie signs ~ suffering on the

II wasn't until the COWS wrr" 'urnsd put

TILLMAN HARD
ON ..'.YANKEES"
Plunged His Fork to Hill and
Says He's Glad Of It
TOLD THEM THE PLAIN FACTS
Says He Has Taken Advantage of Free
Advertising to Make Some Money
On the Lecture Platform.
Speaks at Columbus.

Columbus, Ca, December 29.-(Special.)
Senator B. r. Tillman of South Carolina
lectured in Columbus tonight to a fair
sized audience. Senator Tillman said in
the beginning, that he had received a
good deal of free advertising but never
paid a cent for all the lies slander and
abuse heaped upon him by certain news
papers," People usually go out to see a
man rather because hes famous or pop
ular or has attained notoriety," he said.
Most folks come out to see me to find
out what sort of looking animal ] really
am" He said that he had taken advant-
age of these advertisements to coin few
hundreds, or maybe a few thousands, on
the lecture platforms and did not think
1t beneath his dignity, as other senators
make money outside the senate chamber.
Mr.. Tillman gave an impassioned de-
scriptlon of reconstruction days In South
Carolina and his audience frequently
burst into applause. He said that thirty
odd years after, when he was in the
United States senate, what joy 1t gave
him to tell the republican side of that
bOuy the pam uilsdA AillShSu AoSto obode
reconstruction.
'I plunged 1t right up to the hllt and
was glad of It," r. said. "Oh, the re-
publican hypocrits dealing with negroes
in Porto Rico, compared with their policy
to negroes at home. You may have read
about a speech l mad last June on the
question, when the democratic senators
were said to have retired to the cloak
room to show feir disapproval of what
1 said. You southern people would have
gloried in what I said had you been there.
ut has been one of the most exquisite
pleasures of my life in lecturing in the
north to tell the plain facts about the
negroes, and show up the Yankees hypo-
cricy on this question"
In discussing the negro question, Sem
ator Tillman's den rtation was not prac-
tical, and it would bankrupt the white
people to educate the negroes to be good
citizens, as was planned by some. He
thought, however, that as the negroes
acquire more and more book learning,
the negro question then will arise again,
more dangerous than ever.
1T will hardly come in my genera
tion, but 1t will come" He said in con-
clusion, II don't know how this negro
problem will be solved, but one thing is
as absolutely fixed to me as that tomor-
rows sun will rise. there are not enough
long nosed Yankees in HI, or out of
hi to keep the white men Of the south
from controlling the south"
Senator Tillman lectures in Macon to-
morrow night, in Pennsylvania on the
3rd, and goes to Washington on the 9th.

EVIDENCE In THE
SMUGGLING CASE
LIEUT.. DECKER REFUSED TO TES-
TlFY CONCERNING LOADING OF
WAGONS With BOXES AND WAS
ORDERED B.FoRE JUDGE.

San Juan, December 29.-The hearing
of the smuggling case before United
States Commissioner Anderson was re-
sumed today. The session was devoted to
the charges against Lieutenant Com
mander Mentz U. S. N, Supervior of
Elections Benjamin Butler and James
Brennan, an employe of Country Club.
Several teamsters testified to having re-
moved fifteen or sixteen boxes from the
naval station here to the barracks, and
others to the home of Robert Giles, a
government road contractor also under
charges of smuggling.
The teamsters testified that they were
working under the orders of Lieut. Stew
art McC. Decker, commissary of the
Porto Rico regiment who was present at
the station when the boxes were removed
Capt. Joseph T. Crabbs, of the quarter
masters department, his chief clerk and
Lieutenant Decker testified that Captain
Crabbs had said he was complying with
requests from the naval station for con-
veyances, but that the captain was not
present at the time of the occurrence IN
question and had no record of the orders
relating to 1t. Lieutenant Decker refused
to testify concerning the loading of the
wagons at the naval station and was or
dered by the commissioner TO appear pe-
fore a Judge and show cause why ne
should not be punished for contempt OF
court.
The hearing then adjourned.
