OFFICER ON HAND
AT CAMP MEETING
NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS HAD
BEEN MADE THAT NEGROES IN
THEIR RELIGIOUS ARDoR GRE
ATED TOO MUCH DISTURBANCE.

Columbus. Ga, September 23-(Special)
AT the request of citizens of the Fortson
community, Sheriff E. F. Roberts of Mus
cogee county today attended the negro
camp meeting at Mount Gilead church,
nine miles north of the city, for the
purpose of preserving order. Frequently
the camp meetings are scenes OF disorder
and crime and the citizens felt that the
officers of the law should be on hand
this year. In their petition to the sheriff
the citizens said:
I'VE the undersigned citizens of Mus
cogee county, do respectfully request that
you arrange to send some officer of the
law to attend a negro camp meeting at
Mount Gilead negro church, nine miles
north of Columbus on the Columbus and
Rome railroad. There has always been
a tough crowd to attend these meetings
from our surrounding section We are
fearful of more trouble than heretofore.
Last year their behavior was very bad
shooting. drinking, cursing and reckless
driving and gambling"
Sheriff Roberts asked the county COM
missioners for authority to employ a few
deputies to send to the scene today. at
a cost of only about $40. This was refused
by the county commissioners, who said
that they doubted whether they had the
authority to make the expenditure.
Sheriff Roberts accordingly went to the
scene in person this morning and spent
the day there. There was large atten-
dance, but the presence of the officer pre-
vented any outward violation of the law

True Squirrel Story.

From the Wilkesboro IN. c. Chronicle.
Bill Anderson of the Brushes tells
the latest squirrel tale, and it heads
the list. Bill owed merchant in town
here so cents, and he had promised
to pay 1t Saturday Friday night just
before day he dreamed. In his dream
he remembered the 80 cents and how
the merchant expected 1t the next day.
He also saw large hickory tree In a
secluded spot in the woods, and on 1t
were many squirrels gamboling and
playing on It's branches. He saw him
self shooting them with deadly aim
and how he had brought them to town
and settled with the merchant. His
dream was over; he awoke, and with
out waiting to put on his shoes, he
grabbed his gun and went to the tree.
The squirrels were there and with
out moving from the tracks he killed
10. As he killed the last one he saw
a weasel climbing the tree and killed
It, About that time a crow lit in the
tree and it was brought down. He
turned for home and saw another
squirrel near by and killed It, His
dream had been realized. To corrob-
crate his story, he brought the squir-
rels to town Saturday, paid of the
merchant and had cash over.

REDMOND WANTS NO
HALF WAY MEASURE
SAYS lRLLAND WILL BE sATls-
FLED WITH NOTHING SHORT OF
ACTUAL HOME RULE-PoslTIoN
IS WELL DEFINED.

Dublin. September 23.-John Redmond,
In an address today, said that the Irish
party and people stood face to face with
a delicate and most extraordinary sltua
ton. The members Of the government
with two or three exceptions had said
they would introduce next year a bill
dealing with Irish self-government, but
he had been Informed that 1t was their in
tention to grant only what they called
administrative home rule"
The Irish party, Mr. Redmond declared.
had no responsibility direct or indirect for
the proposal of any such make shift.
Neither his colleagues or himself had been
consulted on the measure, and II they did
not know the government mind, the gov
eminent should know theirs.
The Irish people stood whore they have
always stood. They had declared that
nothing short of a complete measure Of
home rule and thereby meant a parliament
freely elected with an executive respon-
sible thereto. could ever be accepted In
settlement of the Irish question. If the
prime minister's plan was merely half
way house, he would advise the party
and the people to reject it. The govern
ment, Mr. Redmond added had in score
of instances disregarded Irish public opin-
ion and falsified promises given.

INDIANS OF ALASKA.
They Are Unlike the Red Man of the
West

Mrs. c.. r. Miller In Leslie's Weekly.
The Alaskan Indian is so unlike the red
man of our great west that he Is probably
of a different racial stock. Many students
of ethnology claim that these queer peo-
pie of the north are of Asiatic origin, from
the fact that their skilfu carvings and
methods of weaving indicate that at some
time or other they must have been in
contact with the Japanese race-even the
features of the Chilkat tribe bear slight
resemblance to those of the little brown
men of the Orient.
The Indians are known under the gem
eral name of Thlinkets, and are divided
into tribes called the Chilkats, Stickenes,
Yakutats, Haidahs, Aueuts and Auks.

SHIPOFF FAVORS
USING FIRM HAND
THINKS EVEN DRUMHEAD COURTS
MARTIAL ARE NOT so BAD AS
LYNCH LAW, ARMED REVOLT
AND CIVIL WAR.

st. Petersburg, September 2S.-The
cause of conservative liberalism as rep
resented by the octoberists and peaceful
regenerationists has suffered a heavy blow
in the loss of Dmitri Shipoff, the veteran
liberal and the central figure In Russian
politics, who In letter to the committee
of octoberists announces his withdrawal
from the party which he led in the las.
campaign His retirement is due to dis
agreements with Alexander J. Guchkoff
and others of his colleagues whose views
approving Premier Stolypin's measures of
repression prevailed after a hard fight in
the central committee.
M. Guchkoff, who has now succeeded to
the leadership of the party, in an open
letter to Prince Eugene Troubetzkoy, the
constitutional democrat, reiterates his ap-
proval of drumhead courts martial, and
other measures of firm repression, declar-
ing that liberal or even a radical gov
eminent would be unable to cope with
revolutionary terrorism without them and
that it is the truest mercy to strike and
spare not.
There are things more terrible and
more savage than drumhead court mar
tial," the letter says, namely, lynch law,
armed revolt and civil war"
The letter condemns the constitutional
democrats for seeking to persuade tho
people that an understanding between the
government and the people is impossible,
for preventing by extravagant democrats
any other issue than actual revolution.

COURT IN EscAMRIA.
Daring Robbery at 7rewton store Has
Not Yet Been Solved.

Brewton September Especial 1.-The
officers and court officials have everything
in readiness for the converting of the fan
term of Escambia county circuit court to-
morrow morning The docket is not very
heavy one, but there is considerable bust
ness that Will need the attention of the
grand Jury, and they will likely be in
session several days. The civil docket
will be taken up tomorrow and occupy the
first week, and the criminal docket will
be taken up October l.
One of the most daring robberies ever
recorded In Brewton took place at the
Luttrell Hardware company's store few
nights since. The large plate glass show
window was broken by being hit with
brick and piece of terra Gotta piping, and
two revolvers and a gun was taken from
the display of firearms in the window. The
robbery occurred in the blaze of electric
lights and 1t is a mystery how it was ac-
complished without detection. The rob-
bers left no clue, and it is supposed they
boarded a freigh train and left town.
C. L. Sowell, whose farm is two miles
north of Brewton, has already gathered
more than bale of cotton to the acre
from his cotton fields, and he expects to
pick another bale per acre from certain
plots. Without doubt his lands are in
high state of cultivation and are very
productive.
Judge Thomas E. Black was seriously
hurt recently by falling from his horse
on the Alec hill. His injuries are internal
and he has suffered much pain since the
accident. Owing to his advanced age,
his recovery is considered doubtful
