PARKER, A HERO IN
BLACK is HERE.
Negro Who Saw Fatal Shot
Fired.
HOLDS AUDIENCE IN AMERIcUs.
Tells Hundreds of CoIored Citizens
of Part He Played at Assassination
of President Mckinley In The Cap
ture of Cxoieosz.

A negro of modest mien but "a hero
in black" indeed was In Americus yes
terday and, as was to be expected,
proved an object of intense admiration
to hundreds of colored citizens who
heard from his lips the story of the
most awful crime of the century.
The negro was James Parker, and
thestory he related was that of the as.
sassiHation of Mckinley.
His color, and the true story he tells
of Czolgosz' crime, co0bine to assure
him an audience of large proportions
wherever he goes in the south upon his
lecturing tours.
Parker Iectu.ed here at Campbell
Chapel, which was taxed to its capacity
by the best coIored people of the city,
They loved Mr.. Mckinley, as well
they might, and the story of his as.
sassination as told by one of their race
"Big Jim" Parker, was of thrilling
interest.
For Parker tells it correctly and with
becoming modesty when it is consider
ed that he is charged with having been
born in Atlanta.
Parker, as the world knows, was di.
rectly beside President Mckinley when
the dago assassin, Czolgosz, fred the
fatal shot. Itwas Big Jim Parker who
hurled himself upon the murderer and
held him, thus preventing a second
shot at the President.
Parker refers but slightly to his part
in that thrilling tragedy, and his en-
tire story of the killing of the Presi
dent is told modestly but in man.

AMERIcus IN soNNETs TO-DAY.
Millinery Openings Catch Women and
Dollars

Feminine Amerlcus will be in ecstacy,
a wild delirium of delight unntterable,
from the rising of the sun this morning
until long after Old Sol has donned his
nightcap and hidden himself over be-
hind the Philippines. It is the day of
all days with those of the calico gen.
der, for hath not the milliners, singly
and collectively, advertised this as
Opening" day? And "mommer" and
daughter will join the stampede even
before the breakfast wreck is cleared
from the table. Poor old ''popper" will
hand over the family wallet without a
gurgle and go hot footing after another
dollar while the senior member of the
household rounds up the daughter ell :
ment and goes hating for the day.
But he deserves it all as, quite likely,
he got himself into it, but with no
dream of the bonnet days ahead of
him. The whole line will draw up at
the openings today, and the fair maiden
of sweet sixteen, the mellow maiden of
sixty, little wobbly but hopeful to the
last ditch, will elbow with "mother" at
the counter for a glimpse at those
dreams in flowers, straws aed feathers,
creations brining to them a spasm of
JOY and to ''popper" a spssm of
spooks.
