officials, and directing that compensa-
ton be made and adequate protection

of cannon by the villagers during 9

AN AWFUL DEATH.
Woman Aeronaut Falls From Soar
ing Balloon in Anderson.

Anderson, Nov. Mrs. Maude
Broadwick, the wife of Charles
Broadwick, an aeronaut with Rid
delrs Southern Carnival Company
| fell from balloon here this afternoon
and was instantly killed. Mrs. Broad
wick was an experienced bailoonfst
herself and had made two ascensions
while here, but was not to go up this
afternoon. Her husband was to make
the. ascension and parachute. drop.
and she was standing by to give the
signal to cut the ropes when all was
ready. She gave the signal all right,
and when the balloon shot up into the
air she was seen hanging to the ropes
| between the balloon and the para
chute. After she had reached a dis
tance Of 200 or 800 feet she dropped
Ito the earth, striking on the hard
ground and was instantly killed. The
balloon went straight up into the air
and she fell within a few feet Of the
| spot from where she started. A crowd
Of possibly 1000 persons witnessed
the tragedy. Broadwick, who was
fastened into the parachute with a
belt, went on some distance higher
and then cut loose. and descended in
safety. Most Of the carnival people
are inclined to the opinion that Mrs.
Broadwick's death was due to suicide
rather than an accident. They say
Broadwick and his wife had been
quarreling for a week or more and
this, together with the fact that she
was an experienced aeronaut and
there were no projecting ropes about
the balloon harness liable to entan-
gle person, led them to the suicide
theory. Broadwick admits that he
and his wife had quaMeled, but says
they made up, as they had done be-
fore. He says though that >she knew
all iabout balloons and he sdoes not
see snOW SuG COulO UdN0 CSCOIuC dSSi-
dentaly entangled in the ropes. He
has been in the balloon business 15
years and says his wife Aad been in
the business eight years and that she
was quite as expert as himself. He
says that as she fell she called him
to catch her, but that he could not do
so. He thinks that it was an acci-
dent and not suicide. Broadwick says
Cincinnati is his home. He says his
wife's people live there, but they were
bitterly opposed to the marriage and
have never become reconciled to their
daughter since her marriage, and for
that reason he has not notified them
of her death and will have the inter-
ment take place here Saturday. He
is almost completely prostrated. Mrs.
Broadwick was about % years old
and was very popular with the mem
bers of the carnival company.-The

SLAUGHTER OF JEWS.
Threats of the Odessa Mob to Exter.
inmate Jews.

London, November O. A dispatch
to the Evening Standard from Odessa
says:
1.-The city rings with the reports Of
rifles and revolvers and occasionally a
volley is fired. Every house and tene-
ment is bolted and barred. The infar-
try patrols are doing their duty per-
fuctorily, declining to fire on the mobs
unless they themselves are attacked.
The Cossacks are said to have lost
over a hundred men by bombs and
shots from windows. Cossack patrols
carry carbines and have their fingers
on ,the triggers. The streets are alb
solutely unsafe for civilians.
'The casualties yesterday are be-
lieved to have amounted to 5000 kill
ed and wounded. In Jewish quarters
bodies still strew the streets and side
walks Jewish women and children
were strangled and hacked to pieces
in the streets where the mobs gained
the upper hand. A Red Cross doctor
tells me that the Kishineff horrors
were repeated hundred fold. The
students alone saved the city from
wholesale sack and massacre. The
military are now placing a hundred
machine guns at various points.
Twenty-six carts of wounded = have

Gen. Kaulbars was called to the
balcony of the palace this morning by

ing cheers the loyalists resumed

THE STRUGGLE IN RUSSIA.
COUNT WITTE HAS NO REAL
POWER AS YET.
Reactionaries Still Have the Cars
Ear and He Acts on Their Adj
vice Behind Witte's Back.

st. Petersburg, via Lodon, Noven-
ber 4.-The press censorship, which
has been exercised in Russia since
time immemorial, will cease on Sun
day, after which time newspapers
will be amendable to criminal laws
only for anything libelous appearing
in print. The government intends to
make the libel laws very stringent,
which will amount to almost con-
tinuance of the censorship. This, to-
gether with the limited nature Of the
amnesty granted to political offenders,
shows that the bureaucracy continues
to be powerful. More victories must
be won before Russia will be free.
The correspondent Of the Publish
ers' Press today had an interview with
one of the most prominent officials,
who is q close friend and collaboration
Of Count Witte, in which he said:
Count Witte has not yet come into
real power. He is being hampered at
every step by the reactionaries to
whom the Car continues to listen be-
hind Witte's back. It is a great mis-
take to believe the revolution in Rus
sia is dead. It is much alive and is
growing strong again. The raction-
aries are responsible for the disorders
now going on in all Of the provinces.
They are trying to prove that the peo-
pie are unable to govern themselves.
If Count Witte had the power in his
hands he would put an immediate
end to the rioting."

One View of the Murray Case.

We printed yesterday a dispatch
unconfrmed rumor to the effect that
the Hon. George Washington Murray.
having failed to legally evade the PEN
itentiary, had taken himself to Can
ada to escape the sentence imposed
upon him by the courts. 1t is needless
to say that as good citizens we should
all regret to see the courts defed and
justice miscarrie0, but should Mr..
Murray resort successfully to an ex-
pedient which has not infrequently
stood fairer skinned criminals in good
stead, at least one point Of some value
would be established. He would have
proven beyond peradventure that
there is absolutely no right or liberty
| under the law, as it is practiced in the
South, which a member of his race
may not exercise and enjoy. Those
persons who have contended that the
eolored man is Disseminated against
among us would be forever confound-
ed
Not only has the Hon. George
Washington Murray been able to OBJ
tain as much law as any accused
white person was ever able to pur-
chase, but when appeals to technical
tiles had been exhausted in his behalf
it is alleged that he exercised the in
alienable right of every convicted
man to skip his bail and HE himself
to parts unknown. Merely as proof
positive Of the fact that there is no
longer any discrimination whatever
before the law against a man because
of race, color or previous condition
Of servitude, the incident is interest
ing and valuable.
And should it actually develop that
Mr.. Murray has fed to Canada, tho
demonstration Of the point we have
mentioned may be made even more
plain should proper efforts be made to
have him returned to the jurisdiction
of our Courts. The rights Of the white
American citizen in somewhat similar
circumstances, have been we'll estab-
lished recently by Messrs. Greene and
Gaynor, who now are in Jail at Savan-
nah. Should it be made to appear
that Mr. Murray can stave off even
for a brief period his return to South
Carolina, our case would be absolute
ly convincing. In view of the fact
that he has already been convicted.
while Messrs. Greene and Gaynor had
merely been indicted. he could not
reasonably expect to avoid the newt
able as long as they did; but should
it be found possible to bring about
further delays Of any duration what
person, acknowledge that he had not
been the victim of an "unsquare
DEAL in the eye of the law, merely
because of his color
While, therefore, we regret to see
justice circumvented, we feel that the
case Of the Hon. George Washington
Murray is not wholly without it's
compensating and edifying features.
1t utterly confounds those traducers
Of Southern justice who have sought
on occasions to nave it appear that it
is respecter of persons. Mr.. Mur-
ray, negro, tn Ugh he is, has found
it possible to evade the penitentiary
for months, and he is now said to be
in Canada, or somewhere else-exact-
ly as though he was white man

A Proclamation.

When nearly three centuries ago
the first settlers came to the country
which has now become this great re-
spublic, they fronted not only .hards
ship but terrible risk Of their lives.
In those grim years the custom grew
Of setting apart one day in each year
for a special service Of thanksgiving
to the Almighty for preserving the
people through the changing seasons.
The custom has now become national
nd.-hallowed by imnemorial usage.
We live in. easier and more plentiful
times than our forefathers, the men
VINO with rugged strength faced the
rugged days; and yet the dangers to
national life are quite as great now
as at any previous time in our history
1t is eminent1y fitting that once a
year our people should set apart day
for praise and thanksgiving to the
giyer Of good and, at the same time,
that they express their thankfulness
for the abundant mercies received,
should manfully acknowledge their
shortcomings and pledge themselves
solemnly and in good faith to strive
to overcome them. During the past
wear we have been blessed with boun-
tiful crops. Our business prosperity
has been great. No other people has
ever stood on as high~a level of ma
terial well being as ours now STANDS.
s We are not threatened by foes from
without. The foes from whom we
should pray to be delivered are our
own passions, appetites, and follies;
and against these there is always
need that we should war.
Therefore, I now set apart Thurs
day, the 30th day Of this November,
as a day Of Thanksgiving for the past
and Of prayer for the future, and on
that day I ask that throughout the
land the people gather in their homes
and places of worship, and in render
ing thanks unto the Most High for
the manifold blessings Of the past
year, consecrate themselves to- a life
Of cleanliness, honor and wisdom, so
that this nation may do its allotted
work on the earth in manner
worthy Of those who founded it and
Of those who preserved it.
In witness thereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington this
second day Of November in the year
of our Lord one thousand nine hun
dred and five and Of the independence
of the United States the one hundred
and thirtieth.
