OMAHA, oct. 2.-To the Editor OF The
Bee: 1t seems our yellow newspa pers have
caused quite an excitement among the
white population since the Rummelhart
murder by publishing numerous fictitious
stories concerning "niggers."
I wish 70 say that every man who has a
black face is not niger"
"NiREers' are as numerous these DAYS
among the whites as they are among the
blacks; yes. and even more so.
Almost every story published about the
so-called "niggers' insulting white women
on the streets has turned out to be n white
man. fes, they had white faces but for
all that they were "niggers" with hearts
as black as ink.
Women and children have been heard to
say, IL am afraid to step out after dark
because OF the niggers.'
We wish IL to be understood that the
negro is as much OF law abiding citizen as
the white man, and that you do him an in
justice when you wrongly accuse and mis-
represent him.
AS long as the white people respect them
selves we, as race, also respect them.
We do not attempt to say that Mis-
Rummelhart's ASSASSIN was not a negro,
for no one as vet has been able to say
whether or not he was black or white, hut
we do say be sure you are right before you
accuse him. JOSEPH WRIGHT,

reference with secular affairs
Mr.. Danlman could have pointed out to
his critic that people who do not pay taxes
on their property while enjoying all the
benefits of municipal improvements should
be careful i'm making wild charges about
the management of affairs to which they
contribute nothing.
II church property and parsonages paid
their share OF taxation, or even as much

OBITUARY..

July II, 1906, the sweet baby spirit
of little S. T. Irwin fitted across the
fair river of crystal wandering water,
into flowery bower of paradise from
whence it came.
Little S. T. was the youngest child
af Mr.. and Mrs S. T. Irwin, of Baker
ton, KY. He was born November End,
1905. Though his stay on earth was
short, those precious baby hands and
pratling voice left their mark on heart
and brain, and the love that once was
his, will now be links of gold to bind
the hearts to heaven.
"Ah. dream too bright to last!
All, starry hope! that didst arise
But to be overcast!
Dear parents the mournful night you
beheld the whitening blight upon thy
darlings fair sweet brow, your hearts
were torn with untold pain, but since
the first keen burst of anguish is over
can you not say our Fathers will was
best, since you possess so great jewel
in heaven? In the future when mem
DRY turns to gaze upon the past, when
angel wings lowered round the tiny
coffin bed, you will think of heaven
with thankfulness for freeing your ba-
by from the wildering maze that bounds
life's thorny track, and giving him a
home of happiness and rest. Oh! what
Joy twill be when with little brother
and sister left behind, you tread the
path that leads to the golden gate ana
receive loving welcome from little
S. T. A FRIEND.

BEN F. HUNTER DEAD.

Mr.. Ben. F. Hunter, who left this
county thirteen years ago, going to
Texas, but shortly returned to Ken
lucky, locating at Charlottesville, in
Mari county, died in Hendersonville,
N. c., Friday morning.. He was a vic
tim of pulmonary trouble and had been
an invalid for more than a year. He
was about thirty-six years old, and be-
fore his health failed, was an active
business man. He was a brother of
Messrs. ]. ]. and Josiah Hunter, of
Gradyville, and the latter was with
him when the end came.
The deceased leaves a wife, (who is
daughter of Mr.. ]. C. Yates) and
three children. The interment was at
Charlottesville last Saturday, many
relatives and friends being present.
Consumption is fattering disease,
victims of it generally believing that
they will recover. One week before
the death of Mr.. Hunter he left Brad
louisville for Hendersonville, N. C be-
lieving that the climate and water in
that locality would benefit him.
Our sympathy is extended to the
wife, children, brothers and friends.

LEFT THE CHILD.

An occurrence wrapted> in mystery has
put the whole Dunnville country to its
wits, and it looks like the mystery will
remain in darkness. The story, which
is perfectly reliable, IS as follows:
Last Thursday night Mr.. B. F. Rake
straw, the well-known lumber dealer
of Campbellsville, and high gentle
man, was stopping at the Combest
Hotel, in Dunnville, and from him this
information is gathered: About the
midnight hour there was knock at
the hotel door. Mr.. Combest asked
the occasion of it, and was told that it
was friend who wanted to get in and
remain over night. Mr.. Combest got
up, opened the door and instantly a
woman brushed by him, laid bundle
on the table, and without speaking hur-
ried out. Mr.. Combest examined the
package and found that it contained a
live child. A physician was summoned,
who stated that the infant was not
more than three hours old. 1t was
cared for until morning, then turned
over to the Judge of the Caesy county
Court. The people of Dunnville say
they have not the least conception as
to who the mother of the child is.
