Police Break Up
young" Race War

A juvenile race war. In which re-
ports indicate white boys from oil
parts OF the city were volunteered az
combatants or as spectators, that was
scheduled for the Click school grounds
Thursday evening was broken by the
police with the arrest OF nine white
boys shortly before the time for the
battle arrived. No colored boys were
found, at least none was arrested, but
when Officers Marley and buchanan
came upon q crowd OF boys who were
gathering for the fray In the south
part OF the city they captured nine
The squad marched to the police
court were Glen Stanley. Gilbert Tay-
Tor, william Everist. Travis Armtrout,
John Kurtz, Monty" Mills Aaron Jen-
nlngs, James Jennings. and Lewis
Crago. Everist lives in Albion, but Is
employed in the south part of the city.
Some of the boys pleaded that they
were merely onlookers, and not en-
gagged other than spectators. Kurtz,
the two Jennings boys, Mills, and
Crago were released. Stanley Taylor,
Everist and Armtrout were held, and
Stanley and Armtrout were still in the
annex this forenoon. Hearings were
set for Nov. 80 on charges of disorderly
conduct.
Judge Johnson was unable to get a
connected account of what the trouble
was all about. except that n battle had
been arranged. and the white forces
had gathered fori the fray when the
police arrived. Some of the boys in
the crowd the police said, were ~ reg.
istration age but most of them smaller,
and altogether they numbered nearly
half.a hundred Some were armed with
clubs and st iclls. and one captured was
carrying a hoe handle made. into a
billy 1t was said in police court that
the negro boys had offered to fight
fair" without weapons, but they
threatened if the white boys used
weapons they would, too.
Probably the same juvenile feeling
and prejudices promoted this marshall
ing of forces as did the one about thir-
ty years ago when boys from all over
the First and Second wards gathered
in the vicinity Of Third and Park
streets and prepared to do battle with
the patch" gang. The army like the
one of Thursday night, was dispersed
by the officers, and at least one Of the
warriors still recalls how he tore on
high thru Cummings grove and around
the vicinity Of Long pound beating 1t
away from the spot when the officers
arrived all unexpected.

There was but one course to pursue.

I glanced aside into her eyes.
"Not guilty, Miss Vera; I was think

safely out of this scrape. do not say
this to brighten you, Miss Vera, only,
perhaps it is best for you to know the
situation. The first thing necessary

ing, but I'll answer you this: am cap
tain of the Indian Chief, and if any of
you want to try out whether I can
handle my crew or not, go to it. BOsun,
come here"
The man named separated himself
from the others, and slowly climbed
the ladder. He was a big, muscular
fellow, with red hair, clipped close to
his head, and intelligent blue eyes.
"YOur name is Leayord?"
"Aye, aye, SIR
"This is your first voyage on the
Indian Chief?"
mo, sir; my third"
every good, Mr.. Leayord; from now
on you will mess aft, and rank as first
mate, serving watch and watch with
me. Is there a man forward capable
of filling the second mates berthf"
He ran his eyes over the group be-
low rather doubtfully.
"UIson might, SIR he answered
finally. ''He is sober, and a good sea-
man.
"Step forward, CisOn."
The mass of men parted slightly, and
a man was pushed to the front. He
possessed a strongly marked Swedish
face, smooth shaven and almost bOyish.
"How old are you, Olson?"
'Twenty-eight, SIR
"YOu know the sea?'
''Twelve years in the fo'castle, sir"
"All right; I'm going to give you O.
chance to make good as second officer,
Mr.. Olson. Now, lads, that's all for
the present. / take it you are sailor
men, and know what that sky means.
The chances are ten to one We'll have
q storm, before midnight, and We'll
meet it better with clear decks. Get
forward, all hands, and clear away
that effectively now"
They were bit slow about it, grum-
bling among themselves. Olson spoke
once or twice, although / could not
hear exactly what was said, and the
power of sea discipline finally con-
quered. Within ten minutes they were
working cheerfully enough, and Lea
yord had ceased his gruff ordering, and
stood silent beside the lee rail. 1t
pleased me to observe that Olson took
hold along with the others, and did his
full share of the work. I leaned far
.ther over TO gain view of TIE cabin en-
trance, but Bascom had disappeared.
The girl, however, held her place, and
glanced up. her eyes meeting mine.

ns9' she questioned.
Certainly; as Il passenger this deck

into the mist.

said soberly. "The fog is almost like
a hand clutching at you"
