SENT THE WRONG CORPSE,
Thereby Causing CONSERVATION among
DilIon's Colored Populace.

Dillon, April 2G:-There was a
strange case Of mistaken identity
among the negroes of Dillon yester-
day when the wife of one Johnny
Jones with score of friends and
relatives were assembled at the At
lantic Coast Line Passenger station
to receive the body of Johnny Jones
sent here for burial from Pennsyl-
yania.
A dav or two ago the wife of Jones
received a telegram from the author
tiles of a munitions plant stating
that Jones had been killed in an ex-
plosion in the plant. Jones wife
sent 500 for the preparation of the
BODY for burial and for the expenses
of transportation. When the ne
groes opened the coffin upon its ar
rival they found that it was not
Jones but the body of an entirely
different person. They have not as We
understood how the mistake could
have been made and are much ex-
cited over the experience.
This emphasizes the strangeness to
the negroes of this section of the fa-
talities which have overtaken many
of the negroes who nave emigrated
to the North for the past few
months. Numbers of them have
died.
To add to the perplexity of the
excitement among the negroes in
this particular case, the wife of
Jones today received letter from
her husband stating that he was all
right and enjoying good health. The
Dillon authorities have taken cogni-
zance of the letter and will use it ss
a clue to the location of Jones as
about one a year ago he killed a
negro barber employed at A B Glib
sons barber shop in Dillon and fled
to North Carolina and had not been
heard of since until now. The negro
killed was Albert Johnson.
The Sheriff will follow up the clue
AM if Jones is still alive and can be
found he will be brought back to
Dillon for trial.

SPLENDID TRIBUTES
Paid by British and French to Memory

Great Britain publicly paid homage
to the memory of the man who led
the struggle for Amerieen independ-
ence and tore one of the brightest
Jewels from her crown when Minis
ter Balfour placed a wreath on
Wafhington's tomb.
M Viviani," said Mr. Balfour,
has expressed in most eloquent
words the feelings which grip US all
here today. He has not only paid a
fitting tribute to a great statesman.
but he has brought our thoughts
most vividly down to the present.
The thousands who have given their
lives. French, Russian. Italian, Belg-
ian, Serbian, Montenegrin. Ru-
manian, japanese and British were
fighting for what they believed to
be the cause of liberty.
There is no place in the world
where speech for the cause of
liberty would be better placed than
here at the tomb of Washington.
But as that work has been so ade-
quately done by a master of oratory,
perhaps you will permit me TO read
few words prepared by the British
mission for the wreath we are to
leave here today.

sion to the immortal memory of
