Spirit of Young America.

A teacher in a Philadelphia public
school recently narrated the following
account of how an aspiring young
Italian citizen was beginning to show
the effects Of an American environ
ment. The story, which was told at
teachers association meeting, runs
something like this:
Tony had been away from school
about week, and when he showed
up one morning the teacher asked
him where he had been.
81 ran away" said Tony.
'Ran away? What did you do that
for?" asked the teacher.
'My father was going to lick me,
so 1 thought I'd run away" was the
reply.
The teacher by further questioning
brought out the fact that Tony for
some trifing dereliction had been
threatened with beating and had
stayed away from home the best part
of a week.
"But your father has the right to
whip you," said the teacher.
"Yes, he may" added Tony, "but
was born in this country and don
want no foreigners to lick me. -

was found out that he was not the
man wanted.
The labor at the McNames Kaolir
Works is very much demoralized over
the double killing, the father and

AS soon as news reached the laborers
at work they threw down their tools
and most probably it will be near the
end of the week before anything else
is accomplished there.

NEGRO KILLED BY OFFICER.
TWENTY-FIVE ARRESTS MADE
BUT DAY is QUIET.
Five Thousand Negroes Gather to
Celebrate Decoration Day-Less
Than Usual Disorder.

Beaufort, May 30.-Decoration
day in Beaufort passed with one ia
tality and about Is arrests. Police
man H. w. Wallace, a negro, shot and
killed Charles Seymour of Saint He
lena Island, after Seymour had shot
at the policeman four times.
Only about half the usual number
of town negroes that usually partici'
pate in the decoration day celebration
were in Beaufort to-day. Three steam.
ers brought excursionists from Savan-
nah, one steamer came from Charles
ton and numerous gasoline and har-
Dor craft brought in negroes from the
adjacent sea islands. At least $500
negro excursionists came in early
in the day and while there was some
drunkenness and 25 arrests for minor
offenses, the day was much more
peaceable than many former decora-
tion days have been.
Policeman Wallace had arrested
negro about 2 o'clock this afternoon
for cursing and raising disturbance
on the streets. AS he went down to
the Savannah dock, Seymour asked
him if he was the man who had ar
rested the fellow from st. Helena for
cursing. Upon Wallace saying he
was, Seymour applying vile epithet,
asked why he didn't arrest him.
Policeman Wallace did arrest him
and after going about fifty feet Sey-
mour jerked away from the policeman
and began shooting at him. The first
shot struck the scabbard of the po-
liceman's revolver and the other three
bullets passed through his coat as he
jumped from side to side lodging the
shots.
After the fourth shot Seymour's
pistol caught and the policeman drew
his gun and fired once, the bullet
striking Seymour on the left side of
the skull, fracturing the bone and
causing conclusion of the brain, from
which he died an hour later. A good
many threats were made against the
policeman by visiting negroes, but
everything is quiet to-night,and near
ly all outsiders have left town.
Wallace has been a policeman for
the past three years and bears good
reputation. The coroner's jury at 8
o'clock returned verdict that Sey-
mour came to his death from a pistol
in the hands of Policeman Wallace
while in the discharge of his duty.

A Reluctant Candidate.

During a local election in Ger
man town only one man appeared at
the nomination desk.
Whom do you nominate?" in
quired the official.
Myself" was the answer.
"Do you accept the nomination?
"Well, no."
The officer laughed and said:
"Then we must try again. Whom
do you nominate?"
Myself"
"You accept the nomination?
"No."
A subdued "Donnerwetter!" es-
capped the lips of the perpiexed official,
but he went on:
For the third time, whom do you
nominate?"
Myself" came the invariaO'e re-
ply.
''Do you accept the nomination."
The man rose up, and smile OF
satisfaction spread over his face as
he answered proudly:
Having been three times solicited
by my fellow citizens to accept the
nomination, I can no longer decline
to acede to their wishes" He then
retired.

They All Serve.

George C. Boldt, well-known hote
man, was talking in Philadelphia
about the hotels in Switzerland.
"They are good" said Mr.. Boldt
AT the price they are remarkably
good. The Swiss are a nation of no.
tel keepers.
"The Alps, you know, draw all the
world to Switzerland, and the Swift
ger who wants to become million
aire goes into the hotel business, as
an American would go into steel OF
sugar. He begins at the bottom. He
is waiter.
1T is said that once in Bern, at a
historic public meeting, all the lead
ing men of Switzerland were gath
cred together. A vote had been taken
and in the intense silence preceding
the epoch-making verdict of the tell
ers a wag shouted 'Waiter!'
INSTANTLY the whole assembly rose
as one man and answered, Yes, sir! D

MOTHER AND CHILD SHOT.
Negro Kills Two of His Race Without
ProvoeatiOn.

Aiken, May 31.-Several posses of
negroes and white people are tonight
securing the woods for James Robin
son who this morning shot and killed
two negro women at Bath. The dead
women are Fannie Brown and her
daughter, Willie Brown, both Of
whom bore good regulations around
Bath.
The reason for the murders is not
known here. 1t is reported that Rob-
inson paid the negro women a visit
yesterday and this may have had
some relation to the murder to-day
The women lived at McNames &
company's chalk beds, about a mile
from Bath. This morning they were
at work in cotton field, hoeing cot
ton. Robinson came up to them and
commenced cursing. One of the wo-
men asked him, What is the matter,
Jim?" upon which he answered,
Don't ask me what the matter is.
You know what the matter is" At
almost the same moment, he raised
his rifle to his shoulder and fired at
the girl, the shot striking her on the
left elbow, shattering the arm. Pro
ceeding, the ball went through the
woman's side. The negro then turned
his gun upon the gfrl's mother, shoot
ing her twice, instantly killing her. A
negro boy was working with the wo-
men. Robinson turned after killing
the two women and ran, knocking the
boy down, but not otherwise hurting
him.
The sheriff was Immediately wired
for by F. E. Henderson, manager of
the chalk bed, and requested to bring
the county blood hounds. The dogs,
however, were not available. Other
dogs failed to follow the track of the
fleeing negro, whose trail led toward
Beech Island.
Hasty posses were formed Of both
whites and negroes, who were alike
intent on capturing the murderer. 1t
was rumored this afternoon that Rob
inson had been arrested in Augusta.
The people of the community are
very indignant over the brutal occur

Undue Familiarity.

Washington, May 31.-Undue ia
miliarity between the white soldiers
of the One Hundred and Twenty
seventh coast artillery at Fort Ere
mont, st. Helena Island, S. c., and the
negro men and women living in the
neighborhood of the post, was the
cause of the peppering with shot Of
half a dozen of the soldiers May 9,
last. This is the substance of re-
port made to the adjutant general by
one of the inspectors who made an
investigation of the affair on the spot.
Blind tigers" and "boot leg whis-
key" played the usual part in the
affair. As result several of the en-
listed men are to be tried by court
martial.
