TEXANS MOB NEGROES.
Negro Moving Picture Show Started
Trouble in Fort Worth.


Fort Worth, Texas.-For three
hours a mob of a thousand or more
men and boys had full possession Of
the downtown section OF the city.
during which time many negroes were
roughly handled, scores of others
were chased until they eluded the
mob or found places OF refuge, and
hundreds of dollars worth of dam
age was done to buildings occupied
by negroes.
The trouble started when picture
show for negroes exclusively opened
it's doors. Almost Immediately after
the mob began to gather. Then a vol
Icy of rocks and bricks was hurled
into the buildings, wreoking the place
and scattering its occupants.
Finishing here, the mob began q
systematic hunt for negroes Sweep
ing through Main, Houston and Com.
MERGE streets, the principal business
thoroughfares OF the city, the rioters
invaded every place where a negro
was seen. and II the lucky darby was
not fortunate enough to outrun his
pursuers. he was set upon and
beaten. In one or two instances pro-
prietors of the places STONED hold
the mob at bay. but 1t generally was
not interfered with.
During the height of the trouble
the excitement was added to by the
incidental shooting md killing OF a
negro porter by bartenders in an
uptown saloon.

New Orieans.-The Istre ia lily, of
Lafayette, has been broken up by the
finding of traces OF leprosy among
five OF the children. The family was
brought to New Orleans by DR.. Clark
of Lafayette, and after each member
was subjected to a meteorological
examination, three sons and two
daughters were found to be afflicted
with the malady. The father and a
young daughter were found to be
Clean The others were sent to the
Lepers' Home on Indian Island.
The family is well known in La
fayette, where the father has resid-
ed a number of years 1t was not un-
til recently that symptoms OF the dis
ease were discovered among the
children. The mother died several
years ago, it. is saiG, but those who
are intimate with the family assert
that she was free of the disease. The
first symptoms were noted on the
body of the eldest son, young man
OF % years. The youngest son, a
lad of IL, was also examined, and the
symptoms responded to the tests. 1t
is said that there were no outward
signs of the disease. The fact that
the sons were afflicted alarmed those
who made the tests, and it was de-
cided to make an examination of the
entire family. The result of the
test and examination was the finding
of the disease on the bodies of the
two young ladies.
There is hope that the disease may
