BAD, BAD BOYS.
They Go Down to Mobile and Cut
Up to Beat Six Bits.

The following is from the Mobile
Register and Hattiesburg people feel
ashamed of the circumstances that
happened. Read it and note the
names:
Sunday night about O'Clock Presi-
dent Merrill of the Mobile, Jackson
and Kansas City railroad telephoned
the police station that a mob of
drunken men had taken charge of the
excursion train at his depot and that
they would not let the train move.
A detail of men. consisting of about
q dozen policemen, was gotten quickly
into the patrol wagon and hurried to
the scene as fast as the horses could
go. The sheriff had also been tele-
phoned for and he and his deputies
likewise rushed to the depot. Upon
arriving there the men found that
crowd of drunken men were raising
the roof and had complete charge of
the train. They were yelling and
cursing vigorously. The trainmen
went through the coaches and pointed
out the men who were disorderly and
all but three were arrested and taken
to the Jail, where they were locked
up charged with interfering with a
train and abusive language. Their
names are T. d. Taylor, W. NJ.
Seiger, w. Fl. sVolking, j. o. Smith
wick, S. G.. Whatley, Harvey Meyers,
R. L. Marlborough, white; and John
Vemp, colored. The men came to
Mobile on the Mobile, Jackson and
Kansas City excursion from Hatties-
burg Sunday morning and the row
occurred as the train was about to
start ON the return trip to Mississippi.
All were fined from So to $50 in the
inferior court yesterday and all paid
the fines. These fines were assessed
on charges of abusive language.
They were all charged with interfer-
ing with railroad train at depot,
but there was no evidence to support
this charge and they were discharged
on that charge.

THE LAMAR LITERARY SOCIETY.

The most elaborate and refining
part of our school is the Lamar Liter
airy Society.
The pupils Of the High School are
required to meet with the teachers
every Friday afternoon in the school
hall, where they spend an hour very
pleasantly listening to debates, music
and recitations by the members of the
society.
Under the management of the pres
ent president the society has flour
ished as never before.
Never has there been so much inter
est manifested as at the present time.
Not only in the school, but the en-
tire city is very much benefited by our
society, because for the last three ses
sions it has furnised lyceum course
selected from the finest talent to be
secured from the American Bureau
of Entertainment
The entertainments last year were
considered good, but the list this
year far surpasses anything we have
ever had.
The first one of the season, lee
ture by Thomas Dixon, Jr., was we'll
attended and highly appreciated by
all who heard him.
The second was a little different
from the first, being a lecture illus
trated by pictures and was equally
enjoyed.
The third by the Elks' Band and
Orchestra. and select members of the
Lamar Literary Society was q great
success.
But the browning event of the
season will be an entertainment given
by the Bostonia Sextette Club, Thurs
day evening, November 20. This
club needs no introduction to the
musical public of America, as it has
for several years been known as the
J leading organization Of its class.
Eevry member of the club is an artist
{ of great ability.
+ The other attractions for season
I 1923 are: The Chicago Glee
Club, December IL, Edward P.
Elliott, January %; Sam p Jones,
February; A. W. Hawkes., March.
The proceeds from the lyceum
course season 1902 enabled the So
ciety to add more than one hundred
and fifty volumes to its library,
among these are: The Riverside
Biographical Series, II volumes; The
Heroes of History, % volumes; Mod
! ern Classics, so volumes; Memoirs of
Jefferson Davis, by his wife, 2 vol
umes ;sMemoirs of S. S. Prentiss, by
his brother, volumes; Life of r. E.

umes; Life OF Stonewall jackson !;
/ Life mad Seepches of L. Q. G. Lamar !;
Life and Speeches of Henry W.
Grady. Leopard Spots, by Dr. Dixon
) etc, etc.
Surely, the people of Hattiesbnrg
ought 10 and will patronize literally
4 the attractions brought to the city by
the Lamar Literary Society, for by
so doing they, get enjoyment and Gull
I tnre, and at the same time make it
possible for the society to furnish
their children with the choicest books
the very best literature.
1t may be safely said that no enter
prise is doing more for the young PEG.

ary Society. Respectfully,

GREENSBURG, Ind, Nov. H.-The Ha-

at n:30 o'clock tonight. The owner of
the building is not in the city, so the

to be heavy, as several thousand dollars
were spent during the past summer in re-
modelling and refitting the building. 1t was

NEWS CAUSES SATISFACTION.
OmciaIs of the Colombian Legation
at Washington Pleased.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 21.-Although they
have not received any official confirmation
of the report, officials of the Colombian
legation express great satisfaction over the
news that a treaty of peace has been
signed with General Herrera. They feel
this will bring about cessation of hostiii-
ties on the isthmus and terminate a war
which has ravaged Colombia for several
years. The government of Colombia. realiz-
ing the menace to its interests which the
presence of General Herrera and his army
would be to the negotiations for the con-
struction of Panama canal, put forth
every effort to bring about his capitula-
ton, and for this purpose a large number
of troops has heen massed in the vicinity
of Panama and Colon ready for active
campaign against the revolutionary general
should such action finally be determined
on.
1t is believed here that the terms of the
treaty negotiated follow in many respects
the offers made to the rebels some time
ago by President Marroquin. These were
regarded by the government as extremely
liberal in character. An essential feature
of them was the granting of amnesty to
the revolutionists and their restoration to
certain rights which they forfeited when
they took up arms against the government

TRIES TO CLEAR HIMSELF
SULLIVAN COUNTY SHERIFF SAYS
THE MOB "wAs DETERMINED"
Therefore He Did Not Resist-Wants
His Place Again-Negro Driven Out
of Illinois-Local Investigation.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
SULLIVAN. Ind, Nov. H--By operation
of law the Office of sheriff of Sullivan coun-
ty is vacated and Sheriff John s. Dudley
is succeeded by County Coroner w. p.
Maxwell, sheriff ex officio. Sheriff Dudley
will ask for reinstatement.
Sheriff Dudley says he was informed by
telephone yesterday, when he reached the
Wabash river, with his prisoner. by Dep
uty Prosecuting Attorney Douthitt, that
everything was quiet at Sullivan, and he
could proceed here without any danger.
Sheriff Dudley proceeded and, as he states,
was met three miles west of this city by
Mr.. Douthitt. who again assured him that
there was no danger.
They came into this city by back streets
and alleys, and had reached the rear door
of the jail, when the mob overpowered the
sheriff and his deputies. Sheriff Dudley
says the men were determined and would
have taken the negro even If he and his
deputies had fired on them. Moore was
willing to be brought here without requisi-
tion papers. The sheriff of Crawford coun-
ty, Illinois, at Robinson, feared mob vio-
lence, and had requested Sheriff Dudley
TO take the negro from that jail as soon as
possible.
Last nights affair was the second lynch
ing to occur in this county. Both victims
were colored. There was a legal execution
here In 1864.
Last nights lynching has aroused some
OF the citizens to a remarkable degree,
as Is instanced by the fact that letter
signed white Caps was sent to John
Wells, a negro of this city, who married
Della Chowning, white woman, about a
year ago. and has since lived with her.
He was ordered to leave town within twen-
ty-four hours or be summarily dealt with.
He has disappeared.
The lynching of Moore-or Dillard-will
be thoroughly investigated, and a strong
effort will be made to bring the men i'm
plicated to justice.
