SLAVERY ONCE
 IN THIS STATE
Frederick c. Norton of Bris- tol, Gives Interesting Ac- count of It's History
 Here
NEGROES CHOSE GOVERNOR
Governor Baldwin Also Speaks on Subject at His torical Society Meeting

An account of how the negro slaves in the State of Connecticut during the early part of the eighteenth century each year went through the solemn form of electing a negro governor to act as head of the slaves in the State was an interesting portion of the paper read last night before the New Haven Colony Historical society by Frederick Calvin Norton of Bristol, on Negro Slavery in Connecticut" This unique custom of the blacks electing a governor was never pract1ced in any but the Nutmeg State, according to MT. Norton.
 In the course of his lecture, MT. Norton spoke of the work done in the cause of emancipation by Simeon B. Baldwin and Governor Roger Sher- man Baldwin, both ancestors and the latter grandfather of the present chief executive of the State, and af- ter he had finished his remarks Gov ernor Baldwin himself, who was in addition to those brought out by the speaker.
 AS stated by MT. Norton, the sub- ject of slavery in the State of Con- necticut has never been really ex- plotted by historians Or writers, and most people WnO nave HOC pSISOiIdIiy investigated this matter, have fallen into the belief that slavery in this State was never more than a matter of form, and that it had never taken root the way it did in many Of the other colonies. The speaker showed, however, that Connecticut was in fact one of the first colonies to introduce slavery, not alone of negroes. but of Indians taken in war, but on the oth- CT hand-and this, said MT. Norton, was much to the credit of the State was also one of the first to abandon the custom. For over 200 years, how ever, slavery was one of the institu- tions of the colony, and was given the sanction not only of the leading statesmen, but was even countenanc- ed by the clergy. It was not until the latter part of the seventeenth cen tury that the people of the State be- gan to appreciate it's iniquitous in fluence and took steps toward it's abolition.
 Dr. Norton's paper proved one of remarkable interest, and was greatly enjoyed by all those present.

A Riot of Ink.

Canon Nicholl used to tell how on one occasion he had visited the famous house of the Thrales in that suburb of London where Dr. Johnson was at home. Johnson" said the canon in recalling his visit, "had occupied two rooms, and these were left as he last used them. The sight was an extraor- dinary one, for ink was splashed all over the floor and even on the walls. It was one of the doctors habits to dip his pen in ink and then shake it."

/ A Stubborn Qpeninu,

The head of the household was go- ing through her husbands pockets the next morning.
 What kept you out so late last night?" she suddenly demanded.
 ''It was the opening of the cam paign, my dear" the lesser half re- piled.
 "Well, it didn't take three cork screws to open it, did it?''
 And she drew the offending articles from his side pocket and waved them before him.-CleveIand Plain Dealer.

Coal is of vegetable origin. When vegetable matter accumulates under water it undergoes a slow process of decomposition, giving off it's nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen and some carbon, the result of which if carried far

Death.

Rev. F. NJ. Satterwhite Gied this
morning as $50 O'Clock from an attack
of apop!exy at the home OF Mr.. w. T.
Rhame where he was visiting. The fun
eral services will be held at the Wash
ing street Baptist church at II O'Clock
tomorrow. Friday.
The death of Mr. Satterwhile was
sudden and wholly unexpected, for
while he has been in i'll health for sev
eral months and had recently resigned
as pastor Of the Yorkville Baptist
church on that account. his coudition
was not serious enough TO occasion i'm
mediate alarm He was as well as usual
when he retired last night, having at.
tended prayer meeting and paid several
calls during the evening. He was
stricken early this moroiug and his
death followed shortly afterward.
Mr.. Sa.terwhite was for ten years
pastor of the Washington street Baptist
church and became thoroughly identlti-
ed with the religious life OF this city.
He had many friends among all demon
ipations and his death is felt as a per-
sonal loss by ali who knew and esteem
ed him for the purity Of his life and
character.
He is survived by his wife and one
son, an infant, and three daughters.

Hookworrrl Campaign.

Few people, we believe, under
stand the motive OF the campaign
that is being made for the eradica-
ton of hookworm disease. Further
more, a great many do not realize
the Importance Of this disease. For
these two reasons this article is writ
ten
The cause for which this work is
carried on is :, humanitarian one
the saving of human lives, the relief
of human suffering, and the promo
tion OF public welfare.
There have been treated IN this
county about 500 persons for nook
worms. A great many out OF thus
number were severely infected, be-
ing very pale, sallow, more or less
stunted in growth, suffering such
symptoms as weakness, headaches,
shortneSs Of breath on eXertlon, pal
patations of the heart, pains IN the
stomach, heartburnetc. In many
instances thev were physically unit
for anything at all. After taking the
treatment, they felt aud looked like
different persons. There was really
Il complete transformation.
There is no work that is being
done today that will be OF greater
good than that which is done thru
the generosity Of Mr.. Rockefeller.
No nobler work could possibly De
done. And, we believe, that every
encouragement should be given by
every person to the work. Any WORD
or act against it may mean the loss
Of human life, or the continual
suffering of a person or persons from
this disease.
Hookworln disease, in itself, may
kill a person. In many cases the sys
TEN is kept in such rundown con-
dition that some other disease sets
in and causes death. There are too,
hundreds who, though they never
succumb to this disease, directly or
indirectly, yet are kept in a condl-
ton much below par; feel badly,
suffer from symptoms such as head
aches, heartburn, pains in me stom.
ach, ETC. More than so per cent. of
the children in the rural districts OF
this county are in such state, their
general health being much below
par, from this disease. They are not
getting all out of their school work
that there is in it for them. On ac-
count of the Indifference of the pa
rent they are not given a fair chance
The South Carolina State Board
of Health, through the Rockefeller
fund, is offering to anyone free ex-
animation and treatment for this
disease. There is no charge for the
medicine. In this way the people
may see in the shortest possible
time just what hookworm disease is.
We believe that this is the best way
to show what the disease means.
There is no harm or danger in the
treatment.
