Johnson and said that the crowd
wished to catch him. 1t Is highly
probably that Johnson, IL caught,
may suffer the extreme penalty.
A peculiar fact was developed ut the
eoroner's inquest Thursday when j I'D
son Hall testified that In the struggle
that occurred in the house where his
brother was killed that his own gun
was discharged. lie says that he does
not know how it OCCURRED It Is pos
sible that he himself unwillingly may
have been the author Of his brothers
death. The negroes in the outlying
districts are terrified by the recent oc-
currences but are not leaving the
county. They refuse to say any,,
thing about the crime and the white
man are equally as reticient.
The best people OF Batcsburg itself
deplore the killing OF Head EclrLily,
but ridicule the idea or race war.
1t is thought by many people that
blind tiger whiskey played a promi-
nent part in the homicide. The scene
of the crimes Is in the heart OF the
sandhills in Il lonely and unpopulated
section.
Mr.9J r. II. Major drove with your
correspondent through the portion Of
Tire two counties where the homicide
occurred. Sheriff Alderman Of Aiken
county come to the county line Friday
and will probably take active step to
find the men who killed Head There
are no fears Of further trouble hare
Friday night and steps will be taken
Immediately through the governor
and the proper authorities to deter
mine who are the guilty parties.

Rev. John Attaway Dead.

Rev. John Attaway died last Tues
day morning at O'clock at his resi-
dence in Williamston after several
weeks confinement to his room, dur
ing which time he suffered greatly
but the same spirit Of Christian re-
slgnation which had characterized his
life was with him until the last mo-
ment. He had been minister of the
Methodist church for more than 40
yers and was known throughout the
entire State as a jealous, earnest and
consecrated man of-God. The funeral
was conducted by Rev. Samuel Ian
der, ID. D., assisted by Rev. A. j.
Cauthen, Jr., and Rev. r. a. Child,
Wednesday afternoon in the William
ston Methodist church, after which
the remains we're inferred in the town
cemetery in the presence Of a large
gathering Of friends and kindred of
the deceased. Besides wife, seycral
sons and three daughters survive him,
three of his SONS having been In the
active ministry in the South Carolina
conference Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, south.

The LAWS Delay.

Here is "a story condensed from the
current issue of Harper's Weekly:
There is now at large in Che State of
Delaware and enjoying freedom ne
gro named Neal, who twenty four
years ago committed criminal assault
on 4 white woman and then attempt
ed to hide that crime by numbering
the woman. Antony Higgins, former
United States Senator and now a lead
ing Republican politician Of Delaware,
was Nea'S counsel and managed to
obtain his freedom and escape from
any kind of punishment for his double
crime on q tcchnicality, after his
client had been three time sentenced
to death. Harper's Weekly gives the
facts more in detail and drclares that
but for the memory Of Meals case the
negro White would not have been
burned at the stake in Wilmington
the other day. The laws delays are
responsible for much Of the lynch law
IN the country, for the people have a
way of remembering these things.

Spectacular Suicide.

A dispatch from Georgetown to The
State says: a negro man committed
suicide Thursday by jumping Off the
dock into the river. IIe was probably
intoxicated or insane, but the method
and time selected by him for drowning
himself made the deed rather spec
tacular. A steamer load Of negro ex-
c'lrSloniSts was just leaving the dock
when this man, who held walking
stick in his hand, was seen to leap in
10 the river. lie apparently made no
attempt to swim, but rose three
times, each time brandishing the cane
in the air, as II saluting some one on
The steamer. AT length he disappear
ed, but for Il full minute afterwards
the end Of the cane was raised above
the surface. Men in Il boat reached
the spot where the negro sank too
late to save hilu, and his body has not
yet been found.

came up in the Richmond police
the other day when tile offender was
lined two dollars for capturing two
birds. This was tile minimum fine
hut the justice declared that next

regulation as this on our South

strictly enforced t there is now
such a law it is not enforced. An

He Was Too Rash.

The Columbia State says: Mai.
Nardaman, who Is campaiyning for
governor in Mississippi on a platform
Of opposition to negro education, de-
clared when he started out that if
the negro could be found who had
graduated at college and subSc-
qucntly worked in the field he would
eat him and without salt" Such a
negro has been produced for the ma
jOr's dinner but at last accounts he
has not even said grace. The ma Jor
must be one of those invinciblcs who
declared before Fort Sumter was fired
on that they would drink all the blood
that would be spilled in a war between
the States"

NORTH rs LIKE THE SOUTH.
New York and New Jersey People
! Aroused to Lynehing Point.

When it comes to lyncning a fiend
Tor the usual crime there is no differ.
ence between the North and South.
The quick wit Of a deputy sheriff at
Coxsackie, y. Y, Tuesday afternoon
prevented the lynching Of James Lit!
tie, l9-year-old negro hailing from
Summerhurst, N. Y, who Tuesday
morning near New Baltimore criminal
ly assaulted Emma Cole, aged IL
years, daughter Of Joseph Cole,
farmer living one mile back of New
Baltimore. The negro escaped after,
threatening the child with death. Two
other children had given the alarm
and Mr.. Cole and neighbors met the
child coming home and at once organ
RED a party to Scour the woods. Lit
tile was captured on the railroad track
near Coxsackie, and he confessed the
assault and was locked up. A mob of
i5o enragcd farmers started from New
Baltimore for Coxsackie, augmented
py a large number OF striking Cox
sake moulders and river men, all
frankly vOwing their intention to
lynch the negro. Deputy Sheriff Van
Loon, realizing that the coming Of
darkness would mean the breaking Of
the flimsy local lookup and the violent
death OF his prisoner, smuggled the
negro out and took him down the river
on the boat to Catskill, where there is
a well built Jail. The Cole child is
seriously injured, but may recover.
