TIE NEGRO AND HIS CRIME.

The period,ca, outbreak of as- sallts by negroes upon white women has apparently arrived seain, and all it's fearful portent is mon us. The news columns of the daily press bristle with news of ,h;s character. md the problem of e.topping it is one of the gravest confronting the people of the black belt. The menace is so fraught with danger that the best efforts of abiding citizens appear fruit. Ies.to avoid 1t, and what is to be done to eradicate the crime is a ouestion for the future to deter. mine. The argument that the erad ication of the negro ia the only SO. lnlion is unienable. Perhaps in all the history of latter day civiliza- ton just such condition has not been encountered, but Il is con. dtion which mus, be met and over. come as other troublous problems have been overcome.
 There is psychological reason for th,s which is not always taken into consideration and which forms it's most dangerous feature. In our search for it we must go back to that time of sectional antipathy ard unspeakable political intoler. ance and turmoil-the adoption of the fourteenth and fifteenth amend. ments to the constitution of the United States. This tentative leg isIatIon is responsible for every whit of the trouble. By it the negro was clothed with privileges to which he was in no wise en. titled by any quip of reason or morals. Elevated at once from slavery to sovereignty, totally un. educated for seIf.government or the Judicious exercise of the suffrage, the wonder is that he has been no worse. The political equal (and for time the superior) of his late master, he aspired to social level with him. The negro's nature and the white mans nature made this impossible. It is a condition that never will obtain, but the negro will not realize this. and re- senting his ostracism, ho strikes at the southern white man in the ten derest spet he could possibly select through his wemankind. It is 3 brutal, bestial attack, so horrible that even the ferocious vengeance visited upon the perpetrator seems too merciful, but which has not served as yet to deter the criminal element from engaging Tn the out lrage and braving the danger of death. It only goes to show the insane desire of the negro for so- ciaI equality, and the lengths to which he is ready to go to show his resentment at it's denial.

Autopsy Reveals in Death Of
Millionaire Banker.
BODY FOUND YESTERDAY
No Marks of Violence Except Scratches
Caused by Contact of Body With
Rocks in the water-Family
Do Not Accept Theory.

Lynn, Mass, April THE autopsy
on the body of David X. Phillips, the
millionaire president Of the National
Grand Bank Of Marblehead who was
found dead in the ocean near his home
at Phillips Beach yesterday afternoon,
was held this morning by Medical Ex-
aminer DR.. j. ID. Pinkham. Aside from
scratches on the face and head, which
were attributed to contact with the
rocks in the water, no marks of violence
were found, and the medical examiners
finding was that death was due to
drowning.
This sets at rest the theory of foul
play, and no doubt now exists in the
minds of the Swampscott police that
Mr.. Phillips committed suicide. Some
of his clothes were washed up from
the water this morning and were found
on the shore near the place where the
body was found. The hat and coat are
still missing.
The family do not accept the theory
of suicide and still believe that he did
not voluntarily end his own life.

Time Along With Their Business.

London, April THE House Of Com
mons was in session all night, not adj
journing until a quarter past nine this
morning. The army bill was up for

that it would be prolonged. The Irish
members contributed to the fun by sing
ing Gaelic, Welsh and English songs in
the lobbies. The government was able
to pass the bill, the majorities ranging
from IS upwards.

pected that the government can survive.

HEARsE TEAM RAN AWAY.
Unusual Accident at East Montpelier
Interrupted a Funeral.

The funeral and burial of the child of
Bert Nelson at East Montpelier yester-
day afternoon was interrupted in a
most unusual manner, by the running
away of the pair of horses attached to
the hearse, The team, with the body,
at the head of the procession, was
just about to turn into the Cutler ceme-
terry when the horses became frigh-
tened and started on the run. The
driver, Edgar Cummings, did his best
to stop the animals but to no avail
They took the bits in their teeth,
and in spite of the efforts of Mr.. Cum
mings could not be controlled. When
the driver saw that he could not stop
them he turned his attention toward
keeping them in the road and to avoid
other teams. The animals ran to Mont
peEer before they could be stopped. Mr.
Cummings was able to guide them so
that the hearse was not overturned
During the wild ride the driver lost off
his hat and the blankets fell from the
hearse on the way.
After getting control of the horses
Mr.. Cummings headed them about and
drove back to the cemetery, where he
had left the mourners. The latter were
in CONSERVATION when they saw the
animals become unmanageable and bolt,
and one of the women Of the party be-
came hysterical. The reason for the
fright Of the horses is not known The
animals have been on the hearse for
several years and were always consid-
cred perfectly gentle. Mr. Cummings
is an experienced driver.
The top of the casket was broken off
in the wild ride. Then body was then
placed in the tomb and win be buried
later.

BETHEL GRANITE REJECTED.
Municipal Building in Washington I
Be Built of Marble.

Bethel. April 7.--At meeting OF the
commissioners Of the District of Column
bia, held March 2s, it was decided to
accept the bid of the South Dover, N.
Y, Marble company for stone to be
used in the construction of the new
municipal building in Washington, d.
G. The principal bids before the COM
missioners were the South Dover Marble
company, for stone $645,00O, and set
ting $4,000, and the Woodbury. Granite
company, which offered to furnish Bethel
granite for 100000. This did not in
clude the setting. There seems to have
been two factors that worked against
the Bethel granite. the first being the
additional cost and the second the idea
that it was feared that the layers of
the Bethel granite were not of sufficient
thickness. The commissioners believed
that not over S650,000 could be spent
for stone, 1t was told to the commits
sion that the Bethel quarry was unde-
veloped and that granite does not stand
fire as well as marble. So, reluctantly,
the commission rejected the Bethel gran
ite, which, on account of its color and
texture, has always been favorite with
the members. The South Dover marble
is unstreaked white, with cream tinge.
This quarry is located at South Dover,
N. ", near the Connecticut line.
The loss of this contract is great
disappoint to the Woodbury. Granite
company and also to the citizens of
Bethel, for it would have meant several
very busy years there. The Woodbury.
company has not been seeking for other
business for some time as it had very
good prospect of securing this job. It
has several other contracts already in
view and does not expect to be idle
long, but as matters stand the cutting
shed is now shut down and no work
is on hand.

against his brother licking.
At the opening Of the afternoon ses-
sion Moses King, who was also in the
house at the time of the shooting, took
the stand and corroborated many of the
statements Of the previous witness. He
stated that there was considerable shoot
ing by unknown parties after Lyons
was shot, and that there was none
before.
