KIDNAPPED

Canton. Miss, Aug. l8-The city OF
Canton. known Tor its peonage farm
environments has again been brought
into disrepute by the arrest of a prom
inent colored man, who was EN-
ployed by the Illinois Central Rail
road to secure labor. So anxious are
the authorities in this community to
prevent our people from leaving the
state that they are holding their vic
tim ncommuncado after a mock
trial and fine OF $4,000. The name
OF the prisoner has also been with
held from the public. This fine will
be worked out on one OF the peonage
farms OF this state which is the usual
system OF the South, and is largely
the cause OF the migration OF thou
sands OF Negroes to the North. 1t
is said that as a result of this affair,
numbers are leaving Canton by night

NTOSEY was going home Saturday
~ night about midnight and was
surprised TO see a crowd i'll front
OF the apartment house occupied by
white people at 1924 Grand Boulevard.
Nosey naturally inquired if anybody had
been killed in the house. and received
the information that the fiat on the sec
ond floor had been raided as house Of
ill-fame where whites exclusively con-
gregated nightly. Standing in front OF
the building for few minutes Nosey
counted five cars, all laden with white
men, draw up to the curb, view the
blue coats and order their drivers to
drive on. Nosey smiled and walked on
past the homes OF many colored respect
able citizens OF note in the same block
and agreed that ii was a good idea TO
use some OF the police in this manner.
IN entering one of our best" bar
1 Der shops, J noticed that there was
more than the usual lively discus
sion going ON and that one gentleman
had the center OF the floor and the best
OF the argument. He was telling about
a colored man that had robbed a safe,
gotten $4,000 and did not use any eN-
plosives. His audience was spellbound
and the silence was broken by an old
gentleman who said ont loud, Lord
that guy sure must been raised by
white folks to do dat"
q ONE people seem to think that
they can do almost any thing and
~ get away with it and no one will
be the wiser. That prominent doctor
that Nosey saw hurrying around the cor
ner of Calumet Avenue and 43rd Street
on last Tuesday night seems to have
found out differently He left his car
around the corner, instead OF in front
OF the house and that is the only reason
that the three gentlemen(D who put
him out OF the flat with a bleeding nose
did not wreck MS car. The good doc
tor said he had been robbed, but the
bouncers in the fiat said that he had
done different, whatever that was. |
did not go in the fiat and | know the
doctor won't go back in hurry,
II VERY late afternoon you will find
II, that there are certain ladies of I'M
certain ages who come out of their
perfectIx-good houses and sit on their
steps and begin "panning' everybody
that passes, giving their histories and
the society bellies mistakes
and indiscretions. Nosey stopped in
the dark the other night in And Place
and heard one nice" old lady giving
everybody FITS" and passed on down to
the neighborhood OF 38th Street and that
same old lady would have been Sur
prised' to hear what they had TO say
about the dear old magpie. Nosey told
the last group how to occupy their time
to a better advantage and passed on.
" ES, some OF these days that little
Y girl who lives on Grand Boule-
ward will find herself in the arms
OF the law instead OF in the arms of that
hungry young lawyer. Nosey will drop
in and tell her not to stand between the
window and the light when she is max
ing that one long last goodnight.

TO AWARD BELATED
JUSTICE

Austin, Tex, Aug. 18-Benjamin
Perry. a respectable citizen OF Aus
tin. who has been in the pententiary
since 1912 for alleged assault upon a
white woman, will likely be pardoned
by the governor.
His pardon will come as the result
OF a confession made by James
Brown, alias Hunter Green. who was
hanged at Dallas on June 9th, in
which he absolved Perry OF any part
in the assault. At the time of Perry's
conviction, the white woman as is
usual in the South, identified Perry
as her assailant. No evidence was
produced at that time except her IN
supported Identification. He was
sentenced to life imprisonment. Since
