NEGRO TERRIBLY LASHED.
BY Members of His own Race He's
Tied and whipped.

Columbia, S. c., Oct. 22.-Last even
ing, in Anderson county, a negro
stranger attempted to ravish color
ed woman. She screamed and the man
fled across a river into Greenville. An
Infatuated mob followed and captured
him, returning with him to Anderson.
White men let the negroes alone on
their promise not to lynch. They
stripped the offender, tied him to a
tree, and used buggy traces until the
skin was taken off in strips. The wo-
men encouraged the men and some
of them took hand with the trace.
When released the man was fairly
fayed over part of his body. He dis
appeared soon after being released.

man, made several attempts at suicide
in cell in the station house. He was
arrested for drunkenness. Shortly after
being placed in Jail he took off his
suspenders and tied them around his
neck and then tied them to an iron
bar across the top of his cell, only a
foot or so above his head, and allowed
his feet to drag the floor. He was
strangling when some negroes in an
adjoining cell noticed him. They gave
the alarm and one of the guards, who
was standing nearby, ran in and cut
him down. Twice more he swung him
self up by his underclothing, but each
time was cut down. Then he tried to
butt his brains out against the sides
of the cell. Finally an opiate was adj
ministered which put him to sleep.

Nothing more imperialistic has occur
red during the administration of Presi-
dent Roosevelt than the discharge of
Miss Taylor, an employee of the War De-
partment, which tool place recently.
Miss Taylor claimed that her discharge
was due to her criticism of the policy of
the administration in the public press, but
that claim was regarded with some scep-
ticism until Secretary Root filed a reply
to a mandamus, issued by the courts at
Miss Taylor's request, compelling the
Secretary to show cause. The sum and
substance of Mr.. Roots reply is to the
effect that Miss Taylor had been guilty
of lies majestic in that she had severely
criticised President Roosevelt and the
im~perialistic policy of the administration,
and Therefore "for the good of the SER
vice" he ordered her dismissal.
