A THRILLING RESCUE .
Two New York Firemen Form a Hu.
 man Chain.

man Chain.
 New York, April 1.-Two hremen. who were taking a day of. made a thrilling rescue on the top floor of a burning tenement on Third Avenue to- day by forming a human chain from the coping of an adjoining house and swinging to safety George Deitz. who had been caught by the fire in the hall way of the building.
 Deifz woke from a sound sleep, startled and confused to find flames coming up through the areaway. He ran first to the front of tho building Aut there was no escaping in that di- rection, and when he tried to go back was confronted by a sheet of fire.
 The young man again ran to the front window and screamed for help. The flremen did not have ladders long enough to reach to tho top floor where Deitz was hemmed In. Bremen Du- gan and Sythes were of duty but were near the place when the alarm was sounded. They climbed into the build ing next to the window in which Deitz was standing. They called to Deitz to climb out on the window sill. Then Sykhes crawIed head first to the edge of. the coping. Dugan holding his feet.
 Slowly and carefully the perllous fate of gaining a swing so that Sythes could reach Deitz's hands was accom- piished. Held fast by the firemen. Deftz let go of the window casing and for several minutes the two men were swinging in mid-air fifty feet above the pavement. meantime Dugan crawl ing backwards. He regained his feet and was then able to pull the two men to the coping.
 A great crowd which had gathered in the streets cheered the daring res cue.

MIR. GRIGGS ON NEGRO PROBLEM Argues in Favor of Dis
 franchisement, DECLARES IT IS NECESSARY No Danger of Amalgamation of
 Whites and Blacks. Say. Riahts of Negro in the south Are Guaranteed only Through
 White Judges and white
DECLARES IT IS NECESSARY

washington, April 17.-In an arsu- rn.nt fayoring the disfranchisement or the Southern negroes. MT. Grisgs' or Georgia. in the House of Representa- tives today, declared that such oisIran- chisement was necessary to insure white control and the peace and pros perity of the South.
 In consequence of such action. ne said. the negro would be no less factor than he is now. "At present, MT. Grtggs said, The Is only menace and a scarecrow-not a factor In oe- terming political issues"
 The rights of the negro of the South, he maintained, were guaranteed only through white judges and white jurors and those rights would not be changed by disfranchisement.
 Mir Griggs took issue. with those who claimed that manual. training and technical education of the negroes Of the South furnished solution Of the race question. That in itself. he said. was declaration of the negroes in feriority.
 For Gods sake" he exclaimed. 'Iet us not depend upon technical education of the negro to solve this problem Tt would, he said, either drive the great majority of Southern white men into other States or create the most terri Dle race war in the history or the world. He did not believe the South ern white men would be driven from their homes 'Tf" he said, they should refuse to live in land under conditions so deplorab1e and like their fathers, go out and build homes in the wilderness, we would have left to us e land made up of two classes of peo- plea professional class of whites and Tailoring class of blacks"
 The absurdity of such a condition, he declared. was apparent
 In the opinion of Mir. Griggs there was no danger of the amaigamarion of whites and blacks. There must be perfect submission from the one, he said, and complete control by the other. This. he said. would result in the ne- groes gradually becoming educated aud their removal to other States where they could have greater privileges As negroes increased in numbers in those States, he asserted they would be dis franchised until finally having grown strong during these years Of wander ing in the wilderness, they would have the manhood to go out and with the white mans help. establish homes for thernselveN
