NEGROES HAD THE
USUAL CUTTING
Soaring Another Negro With q
: Rubber Snake Caused Esco
Butler a-Ciose Call

1t is rare thing for holiday of
any kind to take place in this part of
the country without a negro cutting
scrape turning up some time during
the day. This was true yesterday and
Esco Butler was painfully injured last
night when Joe Blanton worked on
him with pocket knife.
II seems that the trouble started
about one week ago while services
were In progress at negro church.
Butler threw u rubber snake on Blan-
ton at that time. almost frightening
hi INTO death. Blanton has been
erieving over the incident ever since
and yesterday he came to town for
the "fofe" Of July and after becoming
worked up over the sights of the city
he happened to meet his pet enemy
on the street. Then the hostilities
began. After cutting Buffers wind
pipe almost off. Blanton took to his
heels. Officer Mcclellan at once ar
rested Butler and Chief Lee gave
chase to Blanton. He caught up with
the negro near K. E. Nicholson's place
In Ccnterville township and hauled
him back to Jail. Meanwhile DR.. J. &.
Harris had been summoned and at
tended to the other nogro's injuries.
! Late last night Butler was given
his freedom on $40 bond while Blan-
ton is still being held In the city Jail
In lieu of $50 bond.

aSTRAINING ATT A. GNAT
IT. SWALLOWING A CAMEIn

Chemical analysis Of coffee. tea and
Goca-Cola as seryed in the home. at
restaurants and at soda fountains,
shows that coffee and tea contain ap-
proximately twice as much caffeine
as does Coca-Cola. In other words.
two glasses of Coca-Cola are approx
imately equivalent to one cup OF cof-
fee or tea SO far as the amount OF
caffeine is concerned =.
Tho only other material difference
In chemical composition is that both
tea and coffee contain tannic acid, a
Eubstance found quite generally in
plants. whereas Coca-Cola does not.
Coca-Cola may therefore be describ-
cd az an improved Caffeine-contain-
Ing beverage" il which the tannic
acid has been loft out. fae caffeine re-
duced In quantity and a delightful
combination Of fruit flavors' added.
TO use: tea or coffee and eschew Coca
Cola is therefore a case OF "straining
at gnat and swallowing a camel"

TWO ACCIDENTS
DURING THE DAY
Negro Boy and White Boy Run
Over in Different Parts of
Town by Autos
(From Sundays DiaIy.)


So far as was known around town
last night only two accidents occurred
In Anderson yesterday. A negro boy
was run over by an automobile near
the Orr mills yesterday, the machine
passing entirely over the boys body.
but fortunately he was not much in
jured. The man driving the machine
picked the boy up quickly and brought
him to town where medical attention
was given and It was discovered that
he was not badly hurt.
A youpgster riding a bicycle was
run over on the public square ye3ter-
day afternoon by an automobile but
he was struck glancing blow by the
machine and he suffered but little
damage. His bicycle was considerab-
ly torn up but the man driving the
car gave him So and doubtless the boy
was glad that the accident occurred.
With these two exceptions the police
department had heard of no further
accidents yesterday.
This is remarkable record for the
day. since there were dozens OF out
of-town automobiles and hundreds of
buggies here for the day and; every
Anderson, man boasting of a machine
had 1t out for airing during the day.

An editorial in The Detroit Free
Press says:
"The amazing statement from the
south that nine-tenths OF the Federal
employees there are negroes. because
they are better educated than the
whites. and thus more likely to get
through the civil service examna-
tions. furnishes striking commen-
tary on the effect Of the grandfather
laws" which the whites OF the south
ern states adopted to save themselves
from negro domination by 'he over
whelming number of negroes But It
is result wb!uh was predicted by
many farsishted statesmen at the
time these laws were adopted"
The above statement Is no. true 1t
is Just one or those plain. harefaced
lies, which originate in the degener-
ate brain Of those nigger-hugging
nGs'thern spite-writers. who find II
impossible 10 rctard southern pro-
