The Black Man.

In an address before the Negro
Young Peoples Christian and Edito
rial congress in Washington. Secre.
tary of the Navy Bonaparte pursued
a suggestive line Of thought. He
pointed to the fact, established by
comprehensive experience, that the
black race is the only one which has
been able to live with white people
Indians. Australians and Polynesians
have died on and disappeared before
the advance of the white race. but the
negroes have not only remained. bui
have increased and multiplied. From
this condition the secretary drew the
conclusion that the black men have a
destiny to work out, and must com
pete with the white men in the effort
OF gain livelihood. There is no
room in America for people who
can't take care Of themselves" said
the secretary; and again: You can't
in this country rest and be thankful.
for II you try to do this you will soon
have nothing to be thankful for. The
idle and sensual and benighted are
never really free, and America now
is country only for freemen." That
is sound practical sense and true
patriotism, says the Troy Times. And
come to think Of it, the advice is as
applicable to white as to colored men.

People who are received by the
pope must appear in full evening

office looks like that of good New

Sunday evening. 1t seems that

Vandusky went to Vanlanding-
hams place of repose and they
got into a quarrel and fight and
Vandusky was made to leave the
barn. His curiosity prompted
him to peep back through a
crack in the building to see whst
the other boy was doing. Van.

a targst rifle and fired, the ball
passing entirely through Van
dusky's head, killing him in
stantly. Now Linn county has q

Wabash Wreck at Salisbury.

The second section of Wabash

into an open switch, east of the
depot at Salisbury, Wednesday
evening and crashed into the
Glasgow branch train, which
was stan ding on the switch pre-.
paratory to starting to Moberly
with special train load of wheat
Both engines were badly
damaged, and Engineer Robin
son on the fast train had his lef
leg broken below the knee. En-
gineer Purdy of the Glasgow
branch was more or less bruised,
but was not seriously hurt. Joe
Metzger, fireman on the branch
was not injured in the smash-up
out had little finger broken Ia
ter while assisting about the
wreck.
Several of the passengers or
second No. 8 were pretty bad.
ly jo tied, but no grave con
sequences are reported 80 far as
the passengers are concerned.
1t is not known how the switch
happened to be thrown, but it was
probably the work of some ma .
licious person.
The wrecker came up from
Moberly yesterday morning to
clear the wreck away, but made
another one by knocking down
the overhead wagon bridge
across the railroad track, just
east of where the train wreck oi

spree he went to the hotel and be.
gan beating and abusing his wife.
She shot q PISTOL in the air to
scare him and then ran out into
the street and he followed and
caught her and began again to
mistreat her and knock her
down.
Mrs. Fawks says that while
she was down in the street and
Mr.. Fawks was bending over
and beating her that she fired
the shot, from a revolver, which
wounded him. The ball entered
the upper part Of the, stomach
and the physicians who operated
on him found that the intestines
had been punctered four times
by the bullet. These holes were
sewed up and carefully dressed.
The stomach and intestines were
entirely empty and this more
than anything else will aid in his
recovery unless other complica.
tions arise.
Just after Mrs. Fawks had
fired the last shot her daughter
rushed into the street and snap.

where she was placed under

! The shooting was the outcome
of Mrs. Fawks' refusal to give
her husband money to buy
whiskey and her notifying

of that place not to sell him
any liquor.

The Criminal Calendar.

The Criminal Calendar.
F. s. Gordon, who was arrest
ed on a charge of disturbing the
peace of his sister lin law, Mrs. S.
A. Gordon, by calling her a liar,
was tried by jury in Justice
VIM. P. Jared's court here We'd
nesday, and was acquitted. Per.
haps the jury thought that call
ing one liar did not constitute
a disturbance of the peace, and
was only question of veracity
between the accuser and the &C.
cused. We hope, however, that
this will not be taken as a new
code of Missouri ethics.

of Keytesville, imbibed too freely

night and engaged in long.

Ball and Williams were ARE sted
by City Marshal Dick Tisdale
Wednesday morning, and when
taken before Mayor H. j. West,
both of the defendants entered a
plea of guilty to the charge Of
disturbing the peace and were
fined 81, each, and costs. While
long on cussedness, their cash
assets were much abbreviated,
and the two negro bucks were
put to work cutting weeds about
town until the wrath Of the city
is appeased to the extent of their
fines and trimmings. 1t is pity
there is not such a thing as a
public whipping post for su CHI
characters. Ball has both a Jail
and penitentiary record, while
Williams has seen the world
through the county bastile bars
for quite a number of different
offenses.
Jasper Petty, charged with
carrying concealed weapons, was
tried by a jury in Justice
F. M. Lewis court at Sum-

fendant's guilt was not establish
ed to the satisfaction of the

Petty is the father of Mrs. Quinn,
the woman who was accused of
numbering her 9.year. old step
son. The Quinn woman is
Jasper Petty's daughter, and
the boy killed was by
Quinn's first wife, who was form.
erly a Miss Boley, a daughter of
Vim. Boley of near Sumner. Mrs.
Quinn was acquitted of the
murder of the Quinn lad in the
Livingston circuit court, and bad
blood has existed between the
Boleys and Petty ever since. 1t
was at the .ins'igation of VIM.
Boley that Jasper Petty was ar
rested for carrying concealed
weapons, and Petty, in turn,
had VIM. and John Boley, father
and son, apprehended for dis
turbing his peace. The Boleys
have not yet been tried, but will
be one day next week.
