THREE VALIANT TEXANS
MEET THEIR WATERLOO
Insult Negro on a Street Car
and Are Whipped by
Son of Ham

Race prejudice as 1t is operated
somewhere beyond the State plains In
the heart of Texas doesn't find favor
here. There are no "Jim Crow" cars
on the system of the United Railroads.
Whether a black man Is cleaning brick
or wearing diamonds he has the pub
lie privilege of hanging to strap or
occupying a seat in a street car If he
has the price. This idea of equality
under the straphangers' law was new
construction of the Fourteenth Amend
mend to trio of Texans who boarded
an inbound Kearny-street car yester-
day afternoon. They had to stand on
the footrail A complacent occupant
of a comfortable seat was Lew Pur-
CELL a leading light, socially, politically
and otherwise in San Francisco's col
ored colony; wearer of diamonds and
good clothes and man possessed of
more than the average weight and
strength of muscle.
The Texans chewed their rage and
spat their disapprobation. They found
delight in telling Purcell what they
would do to him '.in Texas" ii he sat
while a white man" of the Texas per-
suasion was forced to stand. They jol-
lied him and badgered him and did all
In their petty passion to make him
feel that the United Railroads was
committing a crime in permitting him
to pay his fare and ride as a passenger.
The climax came when the car
reached Kearny and Sutter streets.
When Purcell started to leave the car
one of the Texans joggled him inso-
lently with his shoulder. PurcelPs pa
tience was exhausted, but the strength
of his right arm was not impaired, and
that member shot out, landing an
ebony fist on the jaw of the insulting
Texan. The Texan went down and out.
Texan No. 2, with the courage that
tradition of the Lone Star State gave
him, went to the rescue and likewise
fell before the muscular battery of the
negro. Texan No. 3 tempted the same
fate and met his Waterloo.
Policemen Burns and Lanckman of
the central station gathered in the
four fighters, and, summoning a patrol
wagon, bundled them off to the sta
ton. The Texans, who gave their
names as Harvey Dean and II. and A.
Clarest, were charged with disturbing
the peace. The negro, on the word of
a special policeman who witnessed the
affair, was released.
1t is fair to presume that the three
strangers from the biggest State in the
Union will report home that it is dan
gerous to monkey with an overweight
''colored gentleman" who can afford to
wear diamonds in California

Lively Session Of Council.

The adjourned regular meeting
of the city council was held last
Monday night, and the regular order
of business was interpreted with .
little acrimonious discussion between
his honor and several Of the membes.
The council is deliberative body and
Roberts Rules of Order were in use
as to parliamentary practice. In his
rulings the mayor impressed the MEM
bers of the board that he was mayor
with big M" and while at least
one member intimated that there
was room for improvement no at
tention was paid to the aspersion.
0ring the session few choice epi-
Is were hurled designating one men,
ber as an imbecile and monkey. and
another as pinhead. These were the
result of lost temper but they were
emphatic at the time. There were no
open hostilities but considerable ges-
ticulation was indulged in especially by
his honor, who had he landed on the
anatomy of any of the members as hard
as he hit the desk, the services Of sur
geon would have probably been re-
quired.
The only business of Importance
transacted at the meeting was the
election of a city health officer to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
DR.. G. W. McClanahan. The appoint
ment went to DR.. Allan D. Fraser, he
received majority of the votes
cast.
A concrete crossing expert from
Golden desired to put in q sample of
his work to be paid for next summer
if the walk proved satifactory, and
permission was granted to lay a cross
ing on the east side of Sixteenth ave.
nue. across Miner street.
Contractor Wilkie was present but as
he did not have the figures of his own
engineer for comparison with the esti-
mate of the city engineer, as to the
amount of the work completed no pay
ment was made on account of the
contract.
