of White Girl.

terest feeling prevails here agains
Jack" Johnson. the champion
heavyweight negro pugllist, who oil
Saturday fled from a crowd of LOO
persons who sought to mob him be
cause of his alleged relations witt
Miss Lucille Cameron. a pretty white
girl from Minneapolis.
His case now is the paramount is
sue in Chicago and has been dis
cussed in the city clubs and homes.
The denunciation of the negro prize
fighter has reached such a state that
three negroes last night were hurled
from a surface car, In certain in
stances it is known hat Johnson
even has been condemned oy those Of
his OWL race.
The Negroes actions in court toward
Miss Caneron's mother, his bravado
and remarks about white women have
been taken into consideration by even
the most conservative persons in this
city. 1t is now known that the au-
thorities here even fear for John
sons life.
Repeated rumor that Johnson ha
been shot have been circulated
throughout Chicago, and It is feared
that these tales may nave a serious
effect on the crowds that nave taken
up the case of the negro pugilist.
Lucille Cameron spent Sunday i'll
