Der Of passages OF scripture were re-
cited explanatory OF the sections OF

STORY ~DISBELIEVED.
Negro Says He is Prevented From
Holding Postohice Job in
Yazoo City, Tenn.

4 Commercial-Appeal special from
Yazoo City, Tenn, says:
The statement made by the negro,
N. J. Hornsby, in his complaint at
the White House, that he is prevent
ed from holding a position IN the
posto6ce here by reason Of maltreat-
7nent by white citizens, is strongly
d~iscredited here. Hornsby stood ex-
animation for a position in the local
postohce at a time when two clerk
ships we're vacant. The examinations
were passed by three negroes and
one white man. One of the vacancies
was filled by Lee Cummins, a white
man. The three negroes were ad-
vised by members of their W race
not to accept positions in the office,
as their acceptance might prove dis
tasteful to the white residents and
possibly cause trouble. Two Of the
nezroes Withdrew their applications,
stating that they desired positions as
mail carriers, but not as clerks.
Hornsby applied to Postmaster John
P. Bennett for a position as clerk, but
later, in writing, withdrew his appll-
cation on being warned by white res
;dents that his appointment would
not meet with the approval of the
white people OF the community
At that time, it is alleged, Hornsby
was carrying a loaded revolver and
when this was learned he was in
structed to leave town at once or be
arrested on the charge Of carrying
concealed weapons. Hornsby i'm
~nediately left the city. The pistol
it is said, is being held as evidence
against Hornsby should he return to
Yazoo City.
The story told by the negro is thus
given in a dispatch from Washing
ton:
NJ. J. Hornsby. a young negro, who
twice passed a civil service examina'
ton and twice has been appointed. tt
clerkships in the p~ostofice at Yazoo
Miss, has complained at the White
House that he is prevented from
holding his position by reason of tn
brutality Of white citizens of Yazoo
Hornsby was presented at the Whit
House by the Rev. S. L. Corothers
but the president was unable to tax

up the case because practically all
that remains Of his time before leav-
ing for his western trip has been fill
ed with engagements. The case was
stated to Secretary Loeb, however,
and Hornsby was referred to the civil
service commission According to
the negro's story he entered or his
duties at the Yazoo postofhce, where
upon certain white patrons of the Of
flee thrashed him several times when
he was caught going to and from his
duties. This maltreatment resulted
in the resignation OF Hornsby, but he
took the examination for the vacancy
that was created by his own resigna-
ton. Others who took the exam1na-
ton were two negro men, one ne
eress and two white men. Hornsby
passed the best examination and
again was appointed. While return
ing from Jackson, Miss, where his
bond was fixed up, Hornsby noticed
a gathering OF white people near the
train after it had entered the Yazoo
railroad yards. He left the train and
attempted to escape, but was over
taken and carried off to an OIL mill,
where some Of the members OF the
mob c~ounselled lynching and Others
whipping the negro. Hornsby agreed
10 write out his resignation and leave
Yazoo never to return. The res1gna-
ton was sent to Washlng-
ton and Hornsby followed 1t. he
is seeking relief. but is not sure OF
the character of relief he wants. he
says he is afraid to return to 1azoo'

A. Conan Doyle-Restrained Auto
mobiliSt.

A. Conan Doyle, whose new Sher-
lock Holmes stories are just being
brought out in book form by Nc
Clure-Phillips, under the title, "lhe
Return of Sherlock Holmes" has
been stricken with the same malady
that has so seriously affected Kip
ling and a number Of other writers in
recent years. He has gone automo-
bile mad. His frenzy is not, however,
likely to prove fatal, to himself or to
others, because of the good care he
is having during the first paroxysms
of the disease, from his mother. Mrs
Dovle is a quiet little woman. who
has been passing a sweet and peace
full old age in a vine-covered cottage
in Yorkshire. She has a fathomless
admiration for her famous son.. The
successes of "Arthur" are her lite;
the bread and meat of her daily con-
versation.
When the automobile mania seized
DR.. Doyle, she felt that duty called
her to his side. She left her vlne-clad
cottage and went to her son. When
he wanted to take a spin in his ma
chine, she took her courage in her
hand and climbed into the front seat
with him, and placed a cautioning fin
ger upon his arm as he opened the
throttle. And now the chickens, and
the sheep, and the COWS, of the coun'
try round live; in peace, tor they
have nothing to fear from the snort
ing machine with the sweet-faced
gray-hair little woman by the driver
on the front seat, for they will have
plenty of time to get out OF the way
