A MONUMENT TO A NEGRO GIRL.

A few days ago the editor of the
Little Rock Gazette wrote letter
to the New York Sun describing
the devotion and heroism of Cath
erlne Lawson, negro girl 13 years
OF age, who bravely sacrificed her
life Iii saving that of white child
who had been placed in her charge
as nurse. This child. little boy
twenty one months old, while out
with his nurse ran on the street car
tracks upon which a car was ap-
preaching swiftly. Catherine Law
son saw the danger the child was
In when the car was not more than
twenty feet away and rushing to
her little charge seized him and
threw him clear of the track, but
before she could get out of the way
herself the car struck her down and
the wheels crushed 'out her life.
The child thus rescued suffered no
serious injuries and the heroism
displayed by the colored girl, as
well as her devotion to the child
SO appealed to the white people of
Little Rock that steps were taken
to show The community's apprecia-
ton of the great sacrifice that had
been made. The editor of the Lit
tie Rock Gazette says:
ga public movement was at once
started to build a monument to this
negro girl, who is the daughter of
a washerwoman, and number of
have already been
voluntarily made.
"Seven years ago a number of
people gathered in the Capital The
atre in Little Rock to see four gold
medals given to four negro sxiff-
men who had saved a number of
white people from drowning in the
Arkansas river"
There is no doubt that Catherine
lawson deserves a monument and
he whole South will wish success {

ause this negro girl gave up her +
'wn life to save that of little !
White child entrusted to her care.

Pendleton, Ore, June '25.-As Mrs

boy named Norton, were driving from
this city to the Norton ranch 10 miles
west of Pendleton. the husband of
the woman rode up from behind the
rig until even with the seat upon
which his wife sat and without a
word leveled a revolver at her and
fired five shots in quick succession
At the first shot the woman receiv.
ed a wound in the left wrist and fell
into the bottom of the rig. Two more
bullets also took effect and caused
wounds in her back. None of the
wounds, however, proved serious and
with proper care Mrs. White may re-
cover.
The boy, who was driving, received
a flesh wound in his left knee, which
is thought to have been caused by the
bullet which struch Mrs. Whites arm
glancing to his leg.
After White had fired upon his
wife he evidently concluded that she
was dead and turning his horse rode
back toward lne city about quarter
of a mile, where he dlsmounted from
his horse and after reloading his re.
volver placed it in the middle of his
forehead and blew his brains out.
