DEsERv YES DEATH


Saturday aht, negro named
Will Smith, who works q the floating
gang of one of the raj Dads, went
into one of the stores and insulted one
of the young lady clerks. She scream
ed and the negro ran. He was pursued
by the proprietor of the store and sew
eral friends, and was overtaken at the
Seaboard station. When captured, he
denied his identity, and claimed he
had just come in on the Seaboard
freight. Mr.. J. M. Adams, special
agent of the road, took him in charge
to bring him back up town. After
walking quietly for block or so, he
broke loose from Mr.. Adams and ran
Several shots were fired at him, but
missed He was overtaken back of
the Catholic church by Deputy Sheriff
West. A minute later, as Mr. West
and the negro were together out in
the open lot back of the church, sew
eral hotheaded parties fired at the
negro and almost hit the officer. The
negro again broke and ran Mr.. West
chased and fired at him; the negro ran
into wire fence and fell, but rose
again. A little further, he was head
ed off and tripped up by George
Johns. Mr.. West put the bracelets
on him and the officers brought him
up town. They took him before the
young lady, who positively identified
him, whereupon they hurried him to
jail, just in time to save him from be-
ing lynched.
Two of the dozen or so shots fired
at Smith while he was being chased
hit him, but neither inflicted serious
wound
There is no danger of any further
excitement, as long as Smith is in the
hands of the law, but if he is any
where near Ocala when he is releas-
ed, he stands good chance of being
lynched.
Smith was not drunk. He found the
young lady practically alone, the pro-
prietor and the other clerks being in
another part of the store, and most
wantonly insulted her; his remarks
and actions showing plainly that no
defenseless woman is safe when he is
IN the vicinity. The law does not pro-
vide any adequate punishment for his
offense- He should be swung to limb
and hlled with lead. Not because he
is a negro-the Star would unhesitat-
lngiy prescribe the same treatment
Tor a white man guilty of the same
conduct
