Georgia has just placed on her stat
ute books vagrant law. 1t is meant
to reach that class Of citizens particu-
larly who loaf around the cities and
towns and live from the labor Of their
wives and children. If enforced it is a
good law. There is plenty of work to
do and no man has right to be idle
and loaf, and the motto of the Georgia
law is to ''work or walk DO honorable
labor or be made to do his part at dis
honorable labor, which means in stripes
on the public works.

The negroes will mold a convention in
Columbia very soon to discuss the Qucs-
tion Of lynchlng. There is only one
thing that will stop it and that is stop
the crime which gives rise to it. The
average citizen will justify the mob
in this one crime. The danger is in
the mob taking the law intoits hands;
for other crimes, and that it leads TO
anarchy and disregard of other law.
The negro needs to be taught morals
and right living more than anything.

WHOSE SKELETON BONE
Was This Fonnd At The Naval Academy
In Exoavating For Chapel.

While excavating for the new chapel
at the Naval Academy yesterday, the
laborers unearthed the breast bone OF a
human body and portion Of human
skeleton. The bones were dug up about
four feet below the surface.
They were found by a workman who
had been blowing the ground on the site
Of the new chapel. which is to be very
handsome structure, and which will cost
the United States Government, when il
is completed. 100000. A number Of
theories have been advanced as to the
finding of the human bones.
During the Civil War the row of
houses located on the site for the new
chapel were converted into sick quarters
for wounded and dying soldiers. Many
ladies in Annapolis visited the temporary
hospital located there and administered
to the soldiers needs. No one remembers
grave yard in the Naval Academy.
