CoIored Minister at Lexington
Uses Pearsa|I Hanging as
Medium for Sermon.
FEW MISTAKES ARE MADE
WHILE HE WAS SPEAKING HE
RECEIVED A MESSAGE OF THE
CONVICTION OF AARON NC
CABE ANOTHER NEGRO.
Publishers Press1

Lexington, KY, July Sat a mass
meeting of negro citizens of the city
held this afternoon at Shiloh Baptist
church the fate of James Pearsall,
hanged here on Friday was used as
a medium by Rev. 7. Buckner. a ne
gro, to advise young negro men and
women to resolve TO lead better
lives and become more useful citizens
The meeting was advertised as me-
mortal service for Pearsall. but min
listers who had volunteered to ad-
dress the meeting failed to arrive
and the Rev Buckner took advantage
of the occasion to give such advice
as he did Rev. Buckner said the fate
of James Pearsall who died on the
gallows in this city should be an eX-
ample for all negro men and women
in central Kentucky to lead better
lives.
THE law makes few mistakes in
executing criminals charged with
crimes" he said, although Pearsall
declared at the last moment he was
innocent, his record was so bad that
even members of our own race show
ed no sympathy with him. If the ne
gro people in Kentucky live honest
and useful lives they will not die on
the gallows and not be susDected of
crime"
While Rev. Bucknc- was delivering
his address he received a message
that Aaron McCabe. charged with the
murder of Martin Clark. a white man,
had been convicted and sentenced to
death by a jury this morning. Rev.
Buckner took advantage of the coin
cidence to further exhort members of
his race to live in accordance with
law, for. as he said, such a thing was
never known before that a minister
| delivered the funeral address of a
negro who had been hanged and re,
ceived the message that another ne.
gro had been sentenced to be hung.

oc WITH LOCAL BOYS, VISI-
TORS GETTING 8 RUNS.

Consistent ball by the visitors and
one bad inning by the locals caused
the Fairview team to drop pretty
game to the Shamrocks from Muncle
yesterday by score of 5 to ! before
the largest crowd that has witnessed
a. ball game in Richmond this season.
To the hard she'll fan, whose interest
in the national game never dies, the
game yesterday was most satisfac-
tory one for just one reason-it gave
him ground to argue that Richmond
is again baseball crazy and will sup
port a good independent team. There
was no game at the Athletic Park on
account of the Hamilton Models who
were scheduled, to play the Giants,
not coming. This threw a larft' per
cent of the usually large crowd at
the Athletic park game to the Fair
view Park, making crowd that num-
bered close onto three thousand. The
ground was not large enough to hold
the people and they surged onto the
playing territory. 1t was necessary
to make a ground rule of two bases
on a ball hit into the crowd.
Muncie Exceptionally Good.

Hensley threw fine game for his

finish than any other time. Hart, the
heady second baseman for the Sham
rocks secured four hits and base on
balls out of five times up.
In the sixth inning when the Sham
rocks got three runs, Englebert was
hit on the finger and had to give up
his place at catch to Schattel. Miller
went from left to third and Schissler
went to left. This seemed to unerve
the locals and little hitting COM
