SPARTANBURG QUIET.

News and Courier. a
Spartanburg, October il.-All is ci
quiet in Spartanburg tonight. the mob h;
spirit having died out. and no furth- I
er trouble is expected. The Hampton h
Guards, the local military company. i
the Moraan Rifles, of Clifton. and
the Traynham Guards, of La urens, are d
still on duty, however, and are fully elC
prepared to protect John Irby, the w
negro charged with having attempted b:
a criminai assa, ' upon Miss Lillie PC
Dempsey yesterday. fi
The streets are practically clear of f(
people tonight, with the exception of A
small groups of men gathered here f<
and there about the court house b<
square. in the vicinity of the jail. No la
incendiary talk is being indulged in. ti
it is greatly to the credit of the si
offieials of Spartanburg that Irby si
was not lynched yesterday or last nE
night. The officers were determined ;
to protect the negro at the cost of a
their lives, and with three military '
al
companies stationed in the jail yard a
the mob soon saw that it would be tt
fgolhardy to attempt to take Irby. b
In many of the' churches here to- tl
day the ministers referred to the mob he
spirit that had possession of hun- th
dreds of men yesterday, and gave I tb
thanks that another tragedy was not 01
committed against the law of the 0]
land and the Creator and added to '1
he awfulAerime charged against Irby. nc
It is not known how long the troops a
remain on duty at the jail,
ough it is thought that the two vis
iting companies will return to their a
homes tomorrow. The men who were Su
wounded in the miniature battle yes- fc
terday between officers and members ha
of the mob are not thought to be ser- a
iously wounded. n
Miss Dempsey, who was brutally as- b
saulted by Irby, has in a measure re- to
covered, though is still very nervous s
and suffers much pain . about the to
head and throat. It may be several w
weeks before she entirely recovers. to
Several Arrests Made. wl
Warrants were sworn out today for CC
a mnbe'r of the ring leaders of theW
mob, and several arrests have been tl
made, the warrants being served by o~
soldiers. Those who are under arrest a
are :Hilton Ross, Qrover Fowler, Bud e~
McCarty and Caesar Thomas, all of Yf
whom are being held in the county d(
jail on the charge of rioting. The i]
parties now under arrest are residents Itl
of Spartan Mill village. A detach- Ith
ment of soldiers left here tonight for r
Dayton Mills to make several arrests, 0
bunt as yet have not returned to the P~
eity. Grover Fowler, 'who was arrest- ot
ed today, was one of those who was 1(
shot yesterday. Fowler had a sledge
hammer trying to babter donwn the rc
iron gate when he was fired on from P]
inside the jail. f
Irby to Remain in Spartaniburg. ti
Columbia, October 11.-Governor 10
Ansel returned this afternoon from 0
Greenville, where 'he has been spend- ~
'ing several days on perso.nal business. '
He passed through Spartanburg to- el
day, and it wvas reported to him that t~
the situation there is quiet, but the lf
negro, John Irby held for attempted '
assault, is under military guard. It is 1
understood to be the intention of the
officers to keep the prisoner in the w
jail, which is strong and easily guard- a]
ed, and he will not likely be brought la
to the State prison. Governor Ansel fi
may take up the matter of special i
term of court to give the negro a trial. e~
ABOUT COLLARS.h

Civilization. W
la
There is much virtue in a collar.
any philosophers believe that it is
the real distinction betweep a bar-.
barian and a civilized being;' but this r
is going a little ;to far, for the idea t(
of the collar is evident even in primi- *
tive man. Those are nearer the P
mark wvho say -ihat the real qualifi- (
cation of a gentleman-one more in
herent than hirth. breeding. or the g
right to bear arms-is the ability to t
wear a clean collar without lookingt
conspieuous. But all are agreed thatn
iiian without a collar ,is a poor thing. P
, and tthat unless he has one of the
sort in vogue for the time being .he o
is sadly lacking in dignity, and a A
possible bm-glar or pickpocket. All b
through history, with one remarkable 0'
gap, the collar has been the sign of n
the superior person, one of the insig- b
niia of authority and the mark which
distinguishes t.he really respectab)le j
individual from the Bohemian. The

The white, or linen, collar is quite
modern invention. It turned up
,ddenly in the Middle Ages in the
