DIR. HYDE SENTENCED.
Physician, Charged With Poisoning
Colonel Swope, Appeals to
Supreme Court.

Kansas City, July 5.-Dr. B. c..
Hyde, convicted of having poisoned
Colonel Thomas H. Swope, the mil
lionaire philanthropist, was SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment at hard
labor by Judge Ralph S. Latshaw
in the criminal court here this morn
ing.
An appeal to the State Supreme
Court was filed by Hyde's attorney,
and until it is taken up by the high
er court the prisoner will remain
in the County Jail here.
The doctor and his wife, who had
stood by him faithfully, were side
by side, and held each others
hands. Judge Latshaw promptly
overruled the motion for arrest OF
judgment, and commanded DR..
Hyde to stand up. Before passing
sentence he asked the prisoner if
he had anything to say. At this
point Attorney Lucas, for the de-
tense, arose and told the court he
had nothing to say.
Judge Latshaw said he could not
grant bail.
The prisoner will be kept in the
County Jail until the Supreme Court
has passed finally on his case, which
may not be for six months.

The Nifty Wrecked.

An adventure that reads like fc-
tion and is weighted with an expe-
rience that would have made good
reading in the popular books of ad-
venture, such as the Swiss Family
Robinson, Robinson Cruso, or any
of the other old-time favorites, if
the genius for recital was at hand.
A party of young men of Coving
ton, with more nerve than good
judgment, started down the river
last Saturday morning about 10
o'clock in the neat little launch, the
Nifty. The party was composed of
Joe Mutually, Barclay Smith, Dud-
ley Weaver, Arnold Dulion, Warren
Smith, Nicholas F i t z S m m
Vaughan Noise, and Sidney Noise.
About 4 o'clock Sunday morning the
boat had reached the lake. Six or
eight miles from the Mandev...e
shore rough weather was expert
enced, and the crew put the boat
about in search of safe harbor
and protection from the storm, and
by 10 o'clock the boat had anchored
about mile from shore. Squall
after squall struck the frail craft,
and the top of the boat was blown
clean away and she sprung a leak.
All the furniture and everything
that was not too securely fastened
was thrown overheard to tighten
her, but all efforts proved of no
avail, and it became evident that
the boat, in spite of the effort of
all hands to keep her bailed out,
must be abandoned. The crew
reached the shore in safety, and
made the trip to New Orleans on
the steamer Dolive, returning to
Covington Monday night. The
Nifty is now being washed to pieces
nifty is now being washed to pieces
on the shore. An effort will be
made to save the machinery. Mich
olas FitzSiElmons, Sidney Noise,
Barclay Smith and Warren Smith
suffered from sea sickness, aside
from the trying ordeal of battling
with the elements. In fact, the trip
proved anything but an event of
pleasure, and might have resulted
in the drowning of ALL.
The Nifty was 38 feet in length,
with S-foot beam, and was the prop
erty of ID. H. Weaver.

TWO KILLED AND THREE WOUNDED
IN RACE CLASH IN LOUISIANA.
Conductor L. E. Roberts Shot by Negro, Who May Be
Lynched. Negro Dead and Father
MOrtally Wounded

Under the above heading the Plea
yune publishes the following specia
from Tallulah, La:
L. E. Roberts, a Memphis, Helena
and Louisiana Railroad conductor
whose home is in Argenta, Ark, is
mortal]y wounded and is being rushed
to Little Rock. Ark, on special train
for expert surgical aid, with little
hope of his living until morning.
A negro named Jules Tutson, who
shot him, has fled to the cane brakes
| of the southern part of East Carroll
parish, and is almost certain to be
lynched if captured.
Henry Anderson, negro, is dead,
and his father: John, is mortally
wounded.
A negro woman is seriously wounded
with revolver shot through her head,
and another negro man had his leg
broken by stray bullet.
The tragedies are the result of mix
ing too much bad whisky with the
Fourth of July celebration at Alsatia
and Enoka, just over the boundary line
between Madison and East Carroll
parishes, fifteen miles north Of Tai
lulah.
Conductor Roberts, who was in
charge Of northbound local freight
train No. 1894, which passed here about
o'clock, became involved in dispute
with Jules Tutson, who is described as
negro youth about Is years old, of a
very slender build and light copper
color, over railroad fare. The negro
claimed that he had paid his fare once,
and Conductor Roberts threatened to put
him off the train if he did not pay, as
he had just boarded the train at the
last station, Alsatia, and most certainly
had not paid his fare.
The negro, without further argu-
ment, pulled a cheap revolver and fired
two shots, one of which struck Con-
ductor Roberts in the left side, about
half an inch above his heart, and
ranged downward into his body, the
shock causing him to fall from the
moving train, the altercation having
taken place on the coach platform,
which is provided for the use of the
passengers.
Tutson then held up the negro brake
man who attempted to put on the air
brake with the emergency valve, at
the point Of his revolver, and made him
let the train continue running for some
distance before he jumped off and took
to the canebrgke. The train was then
run back and Conductor Roberts picked
up and hurried to Lake Providence
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1910-07-09

where emergency treatment was givel
him by DR.. Barnard. A special trail
of an engine and coach was then pro
vided by the railroad company and hi
was rushed northward in an endeavol
to get him to Little Rock and save hi
life if possible. Little hope for his re-
covery is entertained. Before leaving
Lake providence he instructed that his
wife be wired to meet him at McGhee,
Ark, and that the McGehee Masonic
Lodge, of which he is a member, be
notified.
Tutson lives on what is known as the
Mounds Plantation owned by w. C.
Hoppe, an East Carol planter, and
owing to his youth and inexperience
and the fact that he is known through
out this section it is thought little diff
Guilty will be experienced in capturing
him. Deputy sheriff Bass accompanied
by deputies and posse left Lake Provi-
dence on hand car for the scene of
the crime. Sheriff Dunn, of East Car
roll, who was in Tallulah when the
crime was committed, will conduct a
search from this direction.
The second shooting affray at Enoka,
which resulted so disastrously for the
negroes, has added fuel to the flame,
and a racial war is threatened.
John Anderson, negro, became in
volved in difficulty with white man
at the store of w. X. Evans, at Enoka,
and Ralph Evans, brother of w. K.
Evans, started to separate them when
Henry Anderson, father of John, drew
a revolver and told Evans to not inter-
fere with the affair, but Evans was
quicker with his gun and shot and killed
Henry Anderson instantly. John in
the meantime drew revolver, but was
shot through the stomach by Evans in
the duel that followed and was NOR
tally wounded and will not live through
the night, Evans escaping unhurt.
A woman bystander was shot in the
mouth by a stray bullet. which COM
pletely severed her tongue at its roots
and tore a large hole in her face, and
she may not recover.
Another negro who was within range
was hit by another stray bullet, suffer
ing broken leg.
The latest report from the neighbor-
hood indicated that the negroes were
arming themselves, and further trouble
might be expected at any moment.
Telephone connections were lost early
in the AFTERNOON, owing to the heavy
rain and wind storm that passed this
afternoon, and further particulars cam
not be obtained.

Race Troubles.

Trouble between white men and
negroes broke loose in New York
as soon as the result of the john
son-J effries fight became known.
Scores of negroes were badly
beaten. Revolvers and knives were
used in several of the affrays.
In those sections of the city where
the negro population is largest the
police reserves were called out so
often that their commanding off,
GERS mobilized them in parks so
they could get to the scene of trou-
BILE more quickly than if they had
to go from the stationhouses.
There was trouble in St. Louis,
Washington, Philadelphia, and
other cities, but the disorder in New
York was more widespread than
anywhere else.
One negro was rescued by the po-
lice from white men who had a rope
around his neck in West Thirtieth
Street and showed that they meant
to hang him to lamp post. An
other negro, pursued from Lincoln
Square almost to Central Park by a
crowd, was saved by a physician,
who opened his door to him and
then stood the crowd off with a
loaded revolver. The negro's skull
was fractured before he staggered
into the house, and he will die.
In Eighth Avenue, between Thir-
ty-seventh and Thirty-ninth Streets,
more than 5000 whites were gath
cred, and all the negroes that ap-
peared were kicked and beaten,
some of them into insensibility.
In Harlem a negro was dragged
from a street car, terribly beaten,
and escaped while two policemen
were fighting their way through
5000 angry men with two white
prisoners charged with having aid
ed in the attack on the negro
MOB GOT BUSY.
No sooner had the ticker In a sa-
loon at Eighth Avenue and One Hun
dred and Thirty-fifth Street an
nounced the result of the fight than
the crowd in the place ran into the
street, led by man who cried:
Lets lynch the first negro we
see!'
About fifty white men were in the
crowd. AS they stood on the side

placed on the market this year than

brought better price in this market
than in some of the other parishes.
The clip this year is expected to run

who have wool for sale should be
prepared to come to Covington on
the 18th of July.

walk looking for negroes an Eight
Avenue car came along. On one O
the front seats was an negro reading
a newspaper. The white men rar
into the street car, caught the negro
by the throat, and after beating his
head against the roof supports
pulled him from his seat and began
trampling him.
Policeman Kerwin pushed his
way through the crowd and ar
rested two white men. Somebody
discharged revolver, and within
a couple of minutes there were
more than 5000 persons packed
into Eighth Avenue, between One
| Hundred and Tthirty-fourth and
One Hundred and Thirty-fifth
Streets. Bicycle Policeman Fitz-
patrick reached Kerwin's side just
as some of the men in the crowd
were trying to take the prisoners
away from him. The policemen
backed their prisoners into a rear
way, while the crowd howled.
A red touring car, with fifteen
policemen in it, stopped the demon
stration. The policemen had started
from the West One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth Station in patrol
wagon, but the wagon lost an axle
and the owner of the automobile Of
fered his car. The negro, who had
been badly beaten, escaped.
Edward Cilley, a negro, accom-
panied by two other negroes, was
attacked in Lincoln Square by men,
bers of band of roughs known to
the police as the Hounds of He'll"
Cilley's companions escaped with
bruises, and Cilley almost got away
by running up the stairs of the ele-
waited station at Sixty-sixth Street.
He was not quite quick enough.
The crowd dragged him back to the
street and hammered him unmerci-
fully. He broke away and ran west
in Twenty-fifth Street.
At No. 16 in that street DR.. Alex
ander Brown was standing in his
doorway. The negro staggered up
to the door, begging to be allowed
to enter. The crowd was at his
heels. DR.. Brown pushed the negro
into the house and slammed the
door. The crowd in the street de-
manded that the negro be given up.
DR.. Browns answer was to draw a
big rveolver and tell the crowd he
would shoot the first man who set
foot on the steps. Police arrived
and dispersed the crowd. The me-
gro, unconscious and with his skull
fractured, was found hiding under
a barrel in the basement. He was
taken to Flower Hospital, and will
probably die.

History Of University.
Wilberforce is named in honor of VIII
liam Wilberforce, the liberator. of Eng
land. Daniel A. Payne, who later be-
came a bishop In the African Methodist
Church, was the founder Of the school.
He likewise founded the Bethel Literary
and Historical Association, under the
auspices of which the meeting March is
to be held.
Wilberforce is said to be the only negro
college in the United States that has a
regularly organized military department
under the government, the graduates
from which are placed on record at the
ficer is detailed to the school as military
instructor.
That position has been held by Lieut..
Alexander, Capt. Charles Young, Lieut..
B. 0. Davis, who has just been appointed
military attache to accompany the
United States minister to Liberia, and
Lieut.. Green, 9th Cavalry, the present in
structor. When the Spanish-American
war broke out Capt. Young. then on
detail, went to the front. taking with him
a large contingent of students, who fought
for the flag in Cuba and the Philippines.
In recent years the facilities of the
school have not kept pace with the de-
mands on it. Enlargement is regarded as
necessary.
