TWO LYNCHED IN. FLORIDA.
Negroes Charged With Assault. on
White Man Strung Up.

Tampa, Fla, January 12.-News
was received here tonight of dou-
BILE lynching between here and Null
berry at late hour last night when
a mob is alleged to have captured
two negroes charged with assault on
white man named Collins and
strung them up to a tree.
According to meager details of the
crime brought here Lewis Peck and
an unknown negro assaulted Collins,
supposedly in the belief that he was
the man who had testified against
them in court prosecution.
1t is alleged they threw coat over
Collins's head as he was on his way
to see a doctor, and after severely
beating him stabbed him several
times and left him lying on the
track, where a train was soon due.
Another negro believed to be impli-
Gated is under arrest in Lakeland.
The lynching has stirred the large
number of negroes engaged in the
phosphate fields at Mulberry to a
high state of excitement and citizens
at Mulberry are going about heavily
armed

Shooting at Gilbert.

Lexington, January 11.-The little
town of Gilbert was the scene OF a
shooting scrape last night. John
Shealy, a white man, was shot and
painfully wounded by Cal Taylor,
another white man, the trouble be-
I'M the outcome of too much liquor,
it is said. According to the reports
received here, Taylor was drunk and
disorderly, and Shealy, acting as a
friend, and in an effort to get Taylor
to go home, assisted him to his bug
gy. After managing to get Taylor
in his buggy it is said that Shealy
turned to go away, when Taylor
drew . pistol and fred. The ball
passed through his left hand and
penetrated the stomach, causing a
painful, but not dangerous wound.
Sheriff Miller was notified by iele-
phone and he lost no time in going to
Gilbert. Taylor was captured and
brought to Jail. Both Taylor and
Shealy are married men. Taylor will
likely be tried at the general sessions
court which convenes tomorrow.

TILLMAN is LOOKING WELL.
Says He Threw Off Dietary Restric'
tions and Picked-up.

Washington, January 12.-There
was much comment to-day at the
senate end of the Capitol on the
greatly improved health of Senator
Tillman, as indicated by his robust
appearance and jovial spirits. Many
said that the senator was loking
better than he had ever looked since
his serious illness few years Ago,
and to the correspondent of The
News and Courier this assertion
seemed to be true. When asked the
cause of his decided pickup the SEN
ator replied that he had cast off the
harness of his self-imposed dietary
rules during the holidays at Trenton
and had reveled to his hearts con-
tent in jowl and collards, and all the
good eating in South Carolina he
could get However, the senator re-
sumed the dietary harness just as
soon as he got back to Washington,
thinking is wise not to overdo 'the
new freedom

windows should be opened and the
warm air permitted to escape. The
majority of farmers permit the cured
meat to hang in the smokehouse,
unprotected from flies and other In
sects, during the spring and summer
months. This is an unwise thing to
do, unless the house has cement
floor, is dark, and all openings are

ing. 1t should be taken down and
prepared for the sumer season. The
individual pieces of meat should be
first wrapped closely with old news
papers or wrapping paper. They
should then be placed in strong sacks
(flour sacks will do) and each bag
tightly tied at the top. The sacks
should then be hung exactly where
they are to stay until taken down
to be eaten or sold, and painted on
the outside with solution so as to
exclude all flies and 'skippers." A
thick paste of ordinary lime, glue,
and water will answer the purpose
very well.-Prof. Dan T. Gray in

DEATH is EXPLAINED.
Small Boy Admits That He Shot Man
i'm NeWberry.

Newberry, Jan. 11.-Hayes Glad
ney, a negro, was found dead. the
22nd of December, in a field near
Maybinton, having been shot and
killed with shotgun. The magis-
trate of the neighborhood held an in
quest, and the jury found he came to
his death by a gunshot wound at the
hands of some person unknown. De-
velopments since led Sheriff Blease
to believe that two negro boys,
George Eddison and Andrew
Gregory, aged 13 and IL, knew some
thing about it, and so he had them
arrested yesterday and brought to
jail. To-day Eddison confessed that
he killed Gladney, and Gregory con-
firmed the confession. Eddison says
that he was shooting at something
else and hit Gladney by accident,
but that he kept silent about it, and
persuaded the other boy to do so, be-
cause they were afraid.

HELD FOR FORGERY.
Young White Man is Arrested at
Greenville.

Greenville, Jan. 9.-Charged with
forging the name of Raymond Jen-
kins, a student at a business col
lege, Harry Naylor, young white
man of 20 years, was yesterday ar
rested by the local police and turned
over to the county authorities, by
whom he was lodged in jail. 1t
is alleged that Naylor faxed a tele-
gram to the father of Jenkins at Gas
tonia, N. c., saying that Jenkins YVES
in trouble and needed $40 imme-
diately.
The elder Jenkins, trusting the au-
thenticity of the message, wired a
telegraphic order for the sum re-
'ouested and waived Identification.
The only obstacle to cashing the or
der being removed by the waiver oil
Identification, Naylor signed the
name of Raymond Jenkins to the
order and was given the $40, it
called for by the agents Of the tele-
graph company.
The father of Raymond jenkins
expected to either hear from his
son again, or expected the young
man to return home Immediately
and when he did neither, Mr.. Jen-
kins wired to the college, asking
information. He was informed by
one of the officials of that institu-
ton that his son had been in no trou
ble- and had wired for no money,
as he had about $40 in cash.
The police department was notl-
fled and Naylor was arrested through
the assistance of Telegraph Agent
Legge, who recognized the man on
the street, and afterward identified
him as the sender of the original
telegram signed Raymond jenkins,
and as the man who cashed the or
der made payable to Raymond Jen-
kins
Young Jenkins told the police that
he had run afoul of Naylor some
time ago, and that the latter had
tricked him out of 81 or IS. No
charge for this alleged prior offense
was made against Naylor.

COTTON GRADE PLAN.
Government Tests Show That Texas
Lost S4O,0OO,OOO on Cotton

Experiments which were ordered
by congress at the suggestion of Sen
ator E. D. Smith to determine the
| difference in spinning value between
the various standard cotton grades,
have proceeded far enough to sus-
tain the senator's theory that this
difference is by no means so great as
would be thought from the price paid
the producer of the staple.
Out of this investigation. which is
being made by the department of
agriculture under the supervision Of
| it's cotton expert, Dr.. n. A. Cobb, re-
suits are accruing which will be of
vital Importance to the cotton grow
ers of the South. The experiments
have been carried on with a total OF
about 120 bales, half of eastern and
half of western upland cotton, which
was put through the Danville, Va,
mills under the regular process used
for commercial cotton.
Parallel tests we're made at the
Clemson Agricultural and Mechanical
college in South Carolina, and addi-
tional checks will be obtained from
technical laboratories elsewhere be-
fore a final report is published:
Enough has been learned from tire
tests already accomplished to justify
the following semi-official statement
of their significance:
1T has been shown conclusively
that much of the lower grade cotton,
for which a decidedly lower price is
paid, works into just as good yarn
and fabric as slightly more expensive
grades. In the case of. Texas this
year much of the cotton was badly
stained and weathered in the field,
but these experiments have shown
that the bleaching process used in
the mills is effective and cheap and
has no appreciable effect on the
strength of the yarn"
At a hearing before the house
committee on agriculture experts for
the department recently said that
this stained and weathered cotton III
Texas has sold for 6 or cents. a
| pound, when it was intrinSically
worth 10 to II cents a pound, rs
demonstrated by the Danville expert
ments The total loss to the farmers
of Texas alone this year on this ac>
count, one of the experts told the
committee, will probably reach s40,-
100000.
AS an object lesson to give practi-
cal effect to the outcome of the spin
ming experiments the department or
agriculture will prepare fifty or more
sets of exhibits. showing the grades
of cotton handled, the amount OF
waste in each, and the character of
the yarn produced, both before and
after bleaching. These exhibits 4ill
he installed at the various agricu.-
! tural colleges which are Interested
and with as many cotton exchanges
as care to have them on view. as an
aid to the grower.
