( SWORE AWAY HIS LIBERTY, i An Old Negro Accused by Eis Children of a Grime He Did Not Commit, 1 In March last John Addison, a negro, '"A rvl/3 sroe on rl in iv jvaio U1M, >,oo Barnwell county, S. C., of arson. The punishment lixed by law for this crime ranges from ton years at hard labor to death. Addison was sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary. The prosecutor was his son-in-law, Emanuel Green, and the only other witness against the old man was his daughter. Green's corn house had been burned, and he and his wife testified that, they saw Addison commit the act. He was convicted by a jury of his own people, flip trial ?ftnip -rcliitfl mm havft in terested themselves in Addison's behalf. The matt or was brought to the Clover ! nor s attention, and he causcd investigations to be made, and these facts were brought to light : Addison had purchased from Green thirty acres of land and had paid him in full. Green refused to give him any receipt for the money or title for the land,.and had the old man ejected therefrom. Addison brought suit, and while it was pending he was arresled on the charge of arson. It is shown that Green moved the corn would get even with, the old man. lie set the building on fire himself, and threatened to cut his wife's throat if she did not join him in swearing away the liberty of her father. He knew that whether Addison was sentenced to be hanged or to ten years' imprisonment he would not live to get possession of his land. Governor Richardson pardoned Addison Wednesday. He has served seven months. T?0 COUSINS QAUEEEL Over a Large "Winning Prom a Lottery Concern, Will Cason and Thurston Neely, two Murray.

It appears that Cason persuaded Neely to invest a. dollar in the venture, . he himself at the same time taking another ticket. They agreed to poo! their interests and to divide equal! ly whatever was drawn by either or both. Neely's ticket drew $15,000 and Cason's | ticket drew ?5. Now Neely denies the ! fact of their partnership, and refuses to , ! sliare with Cason at all. Neelv and Ca son arc cousins, and both very young, barely of aire, if in fact they are about the age of twenty-one at all. ' It has set the county crazy on the lottery question. The Forth Stats Colored Pair. Governor Fo^le opened the eleventh annual Colored State Fair at Raleigh 1 Wednesday and spoke to a large audience of negroes. He referred to the action of the Chicago negroes in appointing a day of fasting and prayer for Southern negroes, and said that his auditors were as happy as any people on the face of the earth and were protected in all of their rights, and lie pledged them the v .1. J7 ' _ c xV ~ Cui. ^ 1, ~ wnoie power 01 tuu ouiw wuuiu uc uaercised in their behalf as much a3 in behalf of white women. The white man in the South, he said, is well disposed toward the negroes and this feeling is reciprocated. Negro schools and asylums in North Carofina are as well cared for as those of whites. Chicago negroes who have sought to set a day of fasting and humiliation will never enjoy, the same attributes of freedom as North Carolina negroes. They never even see the inside of a jury box The Rev. Mr. Leak, colored, secretary of the fair, endorsed Governor Fowle's remarks. Allen Thnrman Taken HL lion. Allen G.

Putting his hands to his side he said: "I would like to have stated more to you, but I am unable to do it; I am getting sick.7' His last words were not distinctly heard, and as his son assisted him to a chair, there were few in the hall who Knew that -ne-naa oroKen aown. as soon as he was abie to go, he was taken to the hotel where he could have rest. He regretted this infirmity very greatly, because, as he stated afterward, he had reserved for the closing part of his speech, sonic good words for the Democratic candidate for Governor.
