Special to the Evening Journal.
New Castle, May 21.--There have
been many complaints lately about dis
orderly negroes who live in Shaw
town. The white residents of that dis
trict say that they are very annoying,
and that Il is unsafe for a white
woman to venture out Of her house af-
ter dark because of the obnoxious Ian
guage used by the negroes. They make
night hideous with their noise. and
they are particularly offensive on Sun
days. The white citizens say
that this state of affairs is a disgrace
to the city. and think that the police
officers should put a stop to it.
The complaints are made not only
by the people who reside in that part
Of the town. but by persons who walk
out South street as far as the depot,
who are annoyed by the language
used.
