On Sept. 1st, 1898 Wong Yum

On Sept. 1st, 1898 Wong Yup, a
Chinaman. who was conducting
laundry in this city, died and in due
time was inferred in the Sumter Gem
etery with all the prescribed form and
ceremony Of Confucianism, Cinnamon
coming from ether towns in the State
to participate =, the funeral rites. For
more than ten years Wong Yup rest
ed quietly in his grave, but yester-
day his bones were disinterred, pack
ed in a box and shipped by express
to New York to be forwarded to China
for final interment. 1t is the custom
of Cinnamon residing in this country
to send the remains Of their fell
low countrymen, who die here, back
to China, for burial, it being a part
of the Celestial faith that a China
mans spirit can't rest i'm peace so long
as his bones lie in foreign soil The
disinterment of Wong Yup's remains,
consisting of bones only, was attended
with the burning Of much incense,
rice paper, prayers, ETC., to drive off
the evil spirits. Not the least inter-
esting item connected with the for
warding Of Wong Yup's bones to
China was the fact that the Express
Company charged $37 for transport
ing the box containing the bones to
New York. If the other transporta-
ton companies charge in proportion
IL will cost a small fortune to get the
bones back to China.

want the charges to precede the re-
ply"
After sending the presidents letter
to the desk Mr.. Tillman paused an
other moment, and before undertaking
his prepared speech made this i'm
promptu explanation: But before 1
begin | want to say that it is irksome
to me and a habit I never contracted
TO read any speech, and 1 would not
depart from my custom today but
for the fear that 1 might omit, if I
attempted any reply extemporaneous-
ly. some important matter"
The sentiment of the crowd seemed
to be pro-Tillmanic and anti-Rooose-
veltan.
There were evidences Of this when
ever Mr.. Tillman satirized the presi-
dent. AT every point in his speech
where the speaker said something cut
ting about the president ripples of
laughter swayed the crowd. The first
OF these masked Mr. Tillman's declar-
alton that the president had struck
him below the belt" Immediately
afterward the assertion that the pres
ident Is adept at advertising" and
then his extemporaneous interpola-
ton to the effect that the presidents
special message was "of type with
which we are so familiar" created
more laughter. The same was true of
Mr.. Tillman's statements she promotes
me to the Ananias Club" and 81 was
not aware that these darts Of mine
had quivered in the executive hide
and stung him so.'' The laughter was
louder when Mr.. Roosevelt was men,
toned as one "who poses as the only
remaining honest man in public life"
but the most significant outburst, one
that was accompanied by a. demon
| stration of vigorous handclapping. was
Mr.. Tillman's reference to his pitch
fork"
The chief regret both among sem
| ators and in the galleries, seems to
have been the fact that Mr.. Tillman
did not use his "pitchfork" as much
as they would have liked. He ex-
planned that this was because he did
not feel physically equal to the task.

ANT|-JAPANESE BILLS.
CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLYMAN SAYS
THEY ARE A MENACE.

Sacramento, CAL, Jan. 13.-Thre,
anti-Japanese bills introduced in thu
State Assembly by Grove L. Johnson
OF Sacramento, and one introduced b!
A. NJ. Drew, Of Fresno, prohibiting
aliens from holding land in the State
have attracted wide interest.
The Johnson bills are designed, first
to prevent Japanese being directors OF
corporations; second, to segregate
their children in the schools; and
third, to segregate all Japanese b!
defining the limits within which they
must live. The first two were in
troduced last session by Mr.. Johnson
and action upon them was suspended
at the telegraphic request Of President
Roosevelt pending diplomatic nego-
tiations between the United States and
japan over the action Of the San
Francisco school board in excluding
Japanese youths from public schools
and assigning them to the institutions
set aside for "Mongolians." The Jap
enese maintained that they were not
Mongolians and Assemblyman John
son introduced an amendment speci-
flying Japanese" in the law. 1t was
the enactment Of this measure that
the President objected to, and it was
killed. Discussing his measures to-
day. Mr.. Johnson said:
II believe sentiment against the
Japanese has grown to such an extent
that the bill will pass
II am prepared to make q fight for
them, and even should Washington
interfere again, would not stop un-
til the Legislature went on record.
II regard the presence Of Japanese
as more dangerous hundred fold
than that Of Chinese. In our schools
Japanese youth Of 16 to 1S years of
age. with their characteristic disregard
for the virtue Of women, should not
be permitted to sit beside our own
children. They are a menace to the
girlhood Of the tSate.
II am not prompted by the Asiatic
League, or any other organization oI
person in presenting my measures"
The Japanese already have q lobby
on the scene, and will contribute con-
siderable money to make a fight. The
hearings will be held in few days.

very warm winter up to date. They
forget that about 1884 to 1886 rose
bushes had beautiful buds at Christ
mas. Then, the winters of 1906 and
1907 was not very cold. Take three
months Of October, November and
December. The mean temperature in
1906 was 50.9 degrees; in 1907 it was
1913; in 1908 it was 54.4. Thus it is

Florence, Jan. 12.-Solcitor Walter
H. Wells has just returned to the city
from Forestville, the scene Of the
lynching Of last Friday, in which Ar
thur Davis, poor negro boy, was
lynched by party Of white men.
Solicitor Wells went to Forestville
today to be present as the States rep
resentative at the coroner's inquest
Owing to the distance from the city
Magistrate Jeff Hyman conducted the
inquest for Coroner Cooper The jury
met Sunday, viewed the body Of Davis
and adjourned until today to take tes-
| timony and in order to have the solic-
itor present to represent the State.
Solicitor Wells tonight gave the fol-
| lowing account Of the inquest: The
jury was made up Of twelve Of the
very best men in the Forestville and
Lyman section. The evidence SUBJ
| nitted today was very damaging as
to three white men, whose names are
| mentioned below. After celebrating
for several hours and after taking all
available testimony the jury presented
the following verdict:
THAT Arthur Davis came to his
death from gunshot wounds in the
hands Of three white men, L. S. Big
ham, Jr., A. H. Fuller, Dan Kinds,
and three negroes, Robert Singletary,
John White and Jim Burch."
Magistrate Hyman Immediately took
| charge of the three negroes and COM
| mitted them to Jail without bond
The three white men were not present
| and Sheriff Burch, together with Chief
of Police j. j. Koopman, Of this city,
with warrants in their hands, went to
| arrest Bigham, Fuller and Kinds.
1t has been learned over the tele-
| phone that they were successful and
| are now on their way to this city with
the men, to be. placed in the county
| prison.
Mr.. Wells stated that the lynching
was one Of the most outrageous Of its
kind that has ever been perpetrated
In the county. When the solicitor ar
rived at the scene Of the lynching he
found that the whole country around
Forestville and Hyman had been post
ed by night riders, warning the citi-
zens of that part Of the country that
Arthur Davis had been lynched by a
party Of .eighty-five men, and that If
the magistrate, whoiwas acting coron-
er, and the jury of inquest held any
particular person guilty OF the crime
that all Of them would be treated as
Arthur Davis had been.
The negroes implicated in the
lynching, 1t appears. were mostly act
ing as watchers, and really did not do
the killing, so 1t is stated. The whole
section Of the county Is aroused over
the affair and are almost up in arms
against the accused lynchers. Bigham
Is son Of the late ex-senator Bigham,
of this county, Fuller is a tobacco
farmer and Kinds Is farmer. All of
them have been looked upon as good
citizens heretofore.

I feel unscathed. At some time in

Theodore Roosevelt face to face with
his true self, and show the people Of
the United States the character Of the
man they have bowed down to. For
the present i will conclude by quoting
from closing paragraph OF the Le-

Weather in 1908.

All people are interested in the

people have poor memories when II
comes to the weather OF past years.
Some Of them unwisely claim that
the climate is changing when they
cannot bring forth a single fact to
support their statement.
1t requires observations for a long
series Of years to establish the fact
that there is uniformity in the rain
fall. cold. heat and storms. There
may be several years in succession
when the rainfall is below normal, as
1t was in 1904. when there were only
1917 inches. In 1905 there was a
shortage of 8.76 inches. The normal
amount Of rainfall at this place is
about 4S or so inches. The farmers
of the county who are supposed to
watch every shower, have very little
idea Of the rainfall during the year.
They know it has been a pretty wet
year and that is all. Let them refresh
their memories, as the lawyers say to
witnesses, who are trying to edge
around the truth.
The year 1908 was a very wet year.
The first three months Of the year
little plowing could be done. Here
Is the rainfall in inches for each
month.
