Danger of Race Trouble at Blufton
PaSSed.-POSses Continue Search
for Negro Charged with Assault.

Ridgeland, June 12.-The town of
Bluffton has again become quiet
little village. The excitement is fast
diving down, ana the negroes are go
ing about their work as usual today.
Except for the determined look on the
faces of the white men of Bluffton
one could not tell that anything un-
usual had happened to the quaint old
village, although the posses are still
out in every direction searching for
the negro culprit who attempted the
criminal assault on one Of the most
prominent ladies of Bluffton. The
men who rushed to Bluffton yesterday
from Ridgeland in automobiles to rem
der all possible aid in case of race
riot, which was feared, are beginning
to return, yet great many are re-
naming to join the citizens and men
of the vicinity in the search for the
negro, which they say thai they will
keep up until the negro is found.
Sheriff Porter, OF Jasper, is still O.
the Job and will remain in Bluffton
for few days.
A coroner's inquest was held over
the body of the negro, William Jack.

ed by State Detective E. F. Hammond

arrest by running from the officer,
and the following verdict has been

Jackson came to his death by a gun

(signed 81. E. Mason, Foreman
The negro constable who went to
Bluffton with the Beaufort naval re-
serve boat to help put the blind
tigers" out of commission and who
was at first thought to have made the
attempted assault, has been found.
Immediately after the alarm was Civ
en- he was carried before the lady and
she stated that he was not the negro.
He was then turned loose, but he stat
ed that he commenced to plan his es-
cape at once, in fear of further trou-
BILE. He secured a boat and went to
Palmetto Bluff, the winter home OF
R. T. Wilson, Esq, a Northern mil
lionaire, and there he was found by a
searching party. but he has again been
released, as all parties are now sure
that he is not the negro wanted.
Presence Had Good Effect.
The Beaufort Naval Reserves, which
was ordered to Bluffton last night by
Governor Blease, has returned from
the scene of trouble, but their appear
ance in Bluffton did more to place
the Negroes under subsection than
anything else. 1t is the general opln-
ion that if the negroes had not known
of their coming a race riot would
have been the result yesterday after
noon and last night. Sheriff H. 0. D.
White has returned TO Beaufort, but
left some of his extra deputies to aid
in the search.
The negro who was arrested in
Ridgeland yesterday morning by the
chief of police has been turned out of
jail upon failure of parties from Bluff
ton to identify him as the right negro.
Yet it is stated that he came nearer
to the description than any OF the
many negroes who have been arrested
This negro also proved a complete
alibi.

THE IRONY OF FATE

Tam Fielder, from a sister State,
Came o'er to South Car'lina,
And undertook to csstigate
Each ignorant old signer
OF Blease's roll of dimocrats,
By terror and blackmailing,
Assisted by the home-raised rats
Who did much angry railing.
One friend Tam had this side the
line,
Not in the legislature
But handsome and exceeding fine,
Who we'll knew human nature
With whom Tam shrewdly made a
trade
To count the grating collars
And doing which he thereby made
Two hundred thousand dollars.
He knew six ithers, true and tried
Engaged in legislation,
To whom the powers did confide,
With quiet exultation,
A trust abroad to execute,
To wit, down in Augusta,
The powers named each one to suit
Judge Ira BIS adjuster.
Tam brought with him dictograph,
Had Colyar hired to aid him,
And promised him, of profits, half,
Tho none he's iver paid him;
So Colyar, right about did face,
And left ould Tammie roaring,
Until he found the present place
For Photographic goring.
Then Colyar took HIS dictograph
And Lanford the detective,
With Chief of Police Beavers staff
And got the proof effective
To lock Tam in pri cell
For bribery and lying
And ither things, which, should
, tell,
There could be no denying.
Now Gonzales and Frazer L.,
And those Investigators,
Will doubtless undertake to quell
Those base prevaricators,
While long, keen, astute Seaboard
Bill
Will act as their adjuster
And run things as one time, at will
He ran them in Augusta.
The dictograph was niver made,
Says Tam, to be Malignant
He had it here on dress parade,
For purposes benignant;
Alas! now in his bailiwick,
1t flies off a tangle,-
He's Northumberland friend do kick
At this Car'lina angle.
