PofsoN. John Brownfeld, a mulatto,
belonging to an exclusive family Of Char
lesion, :. c., "free" negroes (not in slay-
ery), committed suicide in Jail at George
town Tuesday. lie was sentenced to be
hanged next Friday. Brownfield was
barber A constable brought a
bill into his shop one night two years ago
and demanded pay ment.s Drownfield
refused, and the constable attempted his
arrest. In the fight the constable's pis-
tol dropped. The negro seized it and
shot him dead. A rumor spread that
Brown6eld would be lynched. Rice field
hands swarmed into Georgetown with
hoes, rice hooks and muskets. The
whites retired to their houses. Negroes
surrounded the Jail. Their women urged
the men to murder the men, assault the
women and bnrn the town. Troops with
artillery arrived in time to prevent mas
sacre. Brownfeld had negro lawyers.
Money for his defense was contributed by
churches all over the State. He ap-
pealed to the State and United States
Supreme Court on the ground that no
negroes were drawn on the jury, but
couldn't getanother trial. A friend snug

ORGANIZATION OF CoLoRED Me-
cHANIcs. The Central Labor Union is
considering the serious question of
organizing the negro mechanics and
workmen in Norfolk and permitting them
to affiliate with the central body. A num-
ber of the labor leaders have come to the
conclusion that 10 take this step means
the only solution of the labor problem in
Newport News. The labor unions claim
that 65 per cent of the 1000 men en-
ployed at the yard are negroes, and they
work as machinists, bOi ermakers,
painters, drillers, clippers and caulkers.
Being unorganized they work for far
less money than the white union men,
consequently they find little trouble in
getting employment, as there is a large
number of skilled negro mechanics in the
yard.

NEW RIFLES FOR
NATIONAL GUARD
WAR DEPARTMENT READY TO
FURNISH KRAG-JORGENsONS
OF THE REGULARS TO MILITIA

WASHINGTON, March 3.-General
Crozier, chief of he Ordnance Depart
ment, has made preliminary arrange
ments for arming the entire organized
militia of the United States with the
Krag-J orgenson musket of the regular
service, in accordance with the prOvi-
sions of the new militia law. He al
ready has collected about CO. 900 of these
arms at the Government arsenals at
Augusta, Ga, Benicia, Cal. Rock ISL
and, ILL.,, and San Antonio Tex, and
more will be shippeU these points
from the armory at Springfield, Mass,
as needed. These arms will replace
the Springfield muskets, which are to
be returned to the government.
According to the latest returns re-
ceived by Adiutant-General COrbin, the
organized strength of the militia is 49,
749, but the impression prevails at the
War Department that the 10000 Krag-
Jorgensons alreadys collected at the
arsenals named win be sufficient to
meet all demands for several months
to come.

F4RMERS' MARKET DAY

The question of the utility Of
fixed market day at some central point
for farmers, to aid them in the sale of
the products of their farms, is being
discussed at many of the farm insti
tutes this winter. While in thickly
settled country, as in all the agricul-
tural districts Of Europe, where
home market is found for all produce,
these market days are indispensable
the conditions of this country are
quite different. the bulk of the pro
duce raised being exported. OF course
with some minor articles such as the
home market takes it would be good
thing to bring buyer and seller to-
gether on a market day. This may,
however, IN a measure be secured by
the liberal use of the farm Telephone
and the more general usA of the local
newspaper as an advertising medium.
A good large bulletin board placed in
front of mans residence will be an
aid in the same direction.
