WONDERFU L AND VERSATILE
MAN.

To those who have ever witnessed
performance given by this mas
ter spirit of travesty-the Great La
fayette - an introduction is not
necessary, for they know that he is
continually presenting omethin9
fine and unusually startling for the
delectation of the theatregoing
public.
His portion of the programme
during this engagement covers a
very wide scope, and shows his re-
markable and talented attachments
first as a protean artist, present
ing lightning changes from one
character TO another i'm a seemingly
impossible manner and constantly
interfering vein of comedy which
drives away the bewilderrlent of
his audience before wave of ire
sistible laughter.
In his approximations of noted
composers, he not only travesti es
these famous musicians from a
point Of faithful caricaturcA but he
presents each character sur sounded
by his own carefully selected con-
cert band of twenty soloists, which
adds materially to the exciting eX-
cellence of this portion of the per-
form ance.
Fifty people and two car loads of
elaborate pharaphernalia are util-
lied in Laiayette's new version of
the Lions Bride" and with it's
gorgeous scenic environments,
taken from Legendary lore, depict
ing the love, hate and ferocious
jealousy of a colossal untamed lion,
and the startling and awe-inspiring
denouement must be seen to be APP
preciated, and while Mr.. Lafay cite
is the predominatine factor on this
highly interesting programme, the
balance of the bill is replete with
novelties, including the latest nov
city adapted by Mr.. Lafayette from

What Noon Means in Law.

When is it legally noon? Fire IN
surance policies expire at noon, and
the word is admitted to mean exactly
at y12 O'Clock midday. But standard
time has not been adopted in all COM
munities. Many small towns cling
to the sun time, which may be from
few minutes to nearly an hour earlier
than standard. In one State f1re
occurred at two minutes past noon,
sun time, and the insurance company
held that the policy had expired be-
fore the fire. Sun time is used IN
that town, but the insured sued the
company, holding that local customs
did not run the policy, and that he
was entitled to his insurance. The
State courts sustained him. In an
other State similar contention was
taken to the courts and just the op-
posite decision given. Several con-
flicting precedents have been estab-
lisaed in State courts, and it Is said
the question can only be decided for
good and all when a case has been
carried into the United States courts
and passed upon by the Supreme
Court.-New York Press.

There's a remarkable echo here.

But the visitor was not at all i'm

"'You ought to hear the echo at

wakes me at O'Clock sharp the next

ORG|E OF BL00DSHED
Negroes Chased and Killed
Promiscuously on the
Streets-Mob Ruled
Four Hours-Mili-
tary Called Out.

A race riot occurred in Atlanta Sat
urday night and it was one OF the
most terrible since the days OF recon
struction. The causes tnat led up.'to
it were the recent criminal assaults
made by negroes on defenseless white
women.
For months past there has been on.
an average of one woman assaulted d
week. The climax came Saturday al
ssrnoon when it was reported that
there were four white women who haa
been attacked at their homes by ne
soes. The news given in extras by
the afternoon papers inaaIned the peo-
ple beyond endurance.
The rioting started at 9 O'Clock al
the corner of Pryor and Decatur
streets.
Thousands of white men, with their
,,assions infan.ed, gathered in the
business center of the city, and for
-four hours mobs chased negroes,
stoned and shot them to death, and
boarded trolley cars, snatching Off ne
x,oes and beat then to death with
clubs and sticks.
The fire department was called out
in the midst of the terrible excite
ment by order of the mayor, and by
streams of water tried to disperse the
mobs. This Had a good effect only
for a few minutes, for the mobs quick
ly reorganized, and on other streets
began to shoot and stone negroes.
Rushes were made upon the hard
ware stores for pistols, but these were
closed, and the supply of ammunition
was not increased. The saloons were
closed, and in fact every place OF
business had closed doors long be-
fore the usual hour.
At one time number of trolley
cars had to be rushed out Of the
city with dead and dying negroes and
policemen upon them.
All the while the air was filled
with cries of Kill them!" "Shoot
them!" Lynch them!" Down with
the negroes who attack and assault
our wonen!"
A number of men paraded the
streets holding aloft extra editions OF
the afternoon papers whereon were
large type lines displaying assaults
negroes had made or white women
In some streets the air was filled
with the reports of pistols, and the
shouts of enraged men who seemed
more like wild beasts than human
beings.
The scenes on the incoming troll
lev cars were the most fearful of all

the center of the city than it would

more victims in sight the moDs quiet

reports as to the dead, the only au-

Over forty men and boys were ar

In Control Of State Troops:
Sunday the city was in practical
control of the state troops, though
not under martial law.
The nine Atlanta companies, seven
of the Fifth regiment, the Govern
or's Horse Guard and the Governor
Jisht Artillery, who were out all day,
were supplemented in the afternoon
hy the arrival of four outside COM
ranies and still four more reached
The city Sunday night.
With these seventeen companies
there were 600 state troops patrolling
the streets and outskirts OF Atlanta.
These troops we're scattered all
over the city Sunday night under Or
ders from Governor Terrell, and eV-
ery street was patrolled, particularly
about the outskirts of the city.
All day long crowds of people
thronged the streets, watching with Gu
riositv the movement of the soldiers
and eager to learn anything new
that might have occurred. Only a
few stray negroes were to be seen on
the streets, and these were such as
had not caught onto the situation O.
wanted to show their bravado. On
the trolley cars not negro was to be
seen all day. They did not seem to
think that the trolley cars were
healthy places for them, and if they
went out, they preferred to walk.
Saturday night what seemed au'
thentic reports placed the number OF
negroes killed in the city at sixteen.
Sunday the list of dead was only SIX.
This discrepancy could not be account
ed for until the police were notified
that bodies of dead negroes had been
taken from the city.
Cause of the Outbreak.
There were four separate attempts
at assault in Atlanta and vicinity
Saturday. The first happened about 2
o'clock in the afternoon at the home
of Mrs. W. H. Chafin near the Sol
diers' Home. The second attempt was
at o'clock at the home of Mrs. Frank
Arnold, 127 Julian street. The third
was at the residence of Henry Lam
caster, on his step daughter, Miss
Alma Allen, 1872 Davis street, about
$3.50 o'clock. The fourth was an at
tack on Mrs. Matte Holcombe at 275
Magnolia street.
In all these cases only one negro
was arrested as suspect.
