NEGRO BARBER TAKEN
OUT into WOODS AND
BEATEN BY UNKNOWNS

Landy Drakeford, who has been
conducting barber shop on Lemon
street just across from the Court
House, was accosted on his way home
about midnight Saturday night, car
ried about four miles into the coun-
try and severely whipped by four
unknown men. He was given until
5 o'clock Monday morning to leave
the city and a "For Rent" sign was
hung up on the door of his barber
shop.
1t is supposed that Landy was ta-
ken out because of certain acts of his
which have been rumored on the
street, one being in connection with
improper suggestions to a little
white girl who was having her hair
bobbed in his shop. Direct evidence
it is said, is available as to his cul-
pability and that more serious results
did not attend his alleged conduct is
marvelled at by some.
According to a statement alleged
to have been made by Drakeford
when he crawled back to the city ear
ly Sunday morning, he was on his
way home when he was accosted by
four men in an automobile. He was
forced, at the point of revolver, to
get in the machine. The men were
asked, he IS allo"nd to have said.
After driving about four miles in the
country he was told that if he did not
leave town by daybreak Monday he
would be killed. His shop was clos
ed today and it is supposed that he
has taken the advice given him by
his assailants.
Drakeford was we'll known here
and stood well among those of his
race, and some surprise was express
ed that he should have been guilty
of the acts charged against him, but
those who know of the incident say
there is no possibility that a mistake
was made in the fixing of the guilt
on him.

Miami Going After
Spreaders of False
,Yello' Fever Rurr1or

A few days ago a travelling evan
gelist named Fulton, who comes
down this way annually in big au-
tomobile houseboat' stopped over
in Palatka. He said that while he
was in st. Augustine he was warned
not to go to Miami, where he was
headed, as there was yellow fever
there and that a quarantine had been
established. He said he had decided
to go to st. Petersburg instead.
Evidently this rumor has been
prevalent in other cities, for the
Miami Chamber of Commerce has
taken up the matter and is offering
reward of $500 for information
leading to the arrest of the person
or persons spreading such rumors.
There is not now and has not been in
years, any thing resembling yellow
fever at Miami, according to the
State Board of Health, and the
Chamber of Commerce of that city
believes that the rumor is being cir
culated to keep people away. Ad-
vertisements have been inserted in
several state papers offering the re-
ward.

BUNNELL NEGROES
BROUGHT HERE FOR
SAFETY FROM MOB
Charged With Arson on
Moody Place Near
Bunnell
OWNER LOSES FORTUNE
Two Mules, Seed, Feed
and Supplies Go Up
In Smoke

Ed. and Emma Gree, negroes,
were brought to Palatka Saturday
and placed in the county jail for safe
keeping by Flagler county officials
following their commitment to the
grand jury on charge of arson in
connection with the burning of a big
barn on the l. I. Moody place near
Bunnell. The Moody place was un-
der lease to j. A. Whitten.
The fire occurred last Sunday NOR
ming shortly after midnight, the big
barn being entirely consumed with
all of it's contents, consisting of a
fine pair of mules, several thousand
potato barraels, uncoopered, about
200 sacks of potato fertilizer, sew
eral tons of pea vine hay and last
years entire crop of feed corn, ap-
proximately 1900 bushels, about 100
sacks of seed potatoes cut for plant
ing. A second pair of mules was al
so so badly burned that they will be
unfit for use for some time.
The loss was estimated at $4,000
representing Mr.. Whitten's entire
fortune, and when it became known
that there was little doubt of the
guilt of the man and woman placed
under arrest feeling ran high. The
pair we're arrested and placed in
Jail before being given preliminary
hearing. Both had been in the en-
ploy of Mr.. Whitten, but had been
discharged several days before the
fire, and suspicion Immediately
pointed to them. Great interest cen
tered around the preliminary hear
ing. Gree tried to fix the crime at
the door of his wife, and she finally
made a statement that left little
doubt as to the guilt of both and
they were hustled off to the Putnam
county jaih They will be tried at
the spring term OF court here.
