To the Editor of The State;
The newspaper reports of the rs-
cent trouble at Clemaon college being
more or less Incorrect and not alto-
giber fair and Impartial, We, the
undersigned ex-members of the jun
ior class desire to give to the people
of the State what we conscientiously
believe to 'be a true and Impartial
statement of the facta. Wa do not
believe that any one knowingly made
an Incorrect statement;-but we do
know that some of tha newspaper re
porta were written by men who knew
but little about the facta which they
attempted to state. . Consequently,
some blunders were made, an we ccn-
aider It our duty to the pebple of the
State to correct, as far as possible,
these mistakes. • .
1 Taking up theite atatenienta In ord
er, we desire to make the following
corrctlons:
1. The newspaper artlsiqs referred
to above, stated that several orders
and warnings were publ'shed ut re

As a matter of fact, only one order
was published, and that called atten

latlous for the Government of Ca

follows;

“ ‘Any cadet who leaves barracks
without authority at any time be

By a Pretended Detective and Carried
to Bamberg, Where the Pretended
Detective Disappears.
Branchvlll* had a genuine sensa
tion on Tueaday when Rev. William
Jefferson, alias William Blackman,
colored, waa arrested there, charged
with the murder of hla wife and two"
children in Alabama In 1902. The
arrest was made by W. B. Williams,
Jr., a colored detective of BambAtg
county. Rev. Jefferson (as the breth
ren call him) has been preaching
to hla people at Brancbvllle for the
past two years and seemed to be well
thought, of by bis congregation, but
alas, murder will out. 1
It Is reported that Rev. Jefferson
chose as his text on Sunday the fol
lowing scripture: "Thoji shall not
kill." It la reported that there was
a reward of $300 offered by the State
of Alabama for the arrest of Jefferson
and that hts reputation In Alabama
Is not at all good.
‘ ft la further said that when the de
tectlve found Jefferson and ordered
him to throw up hia hands that in
stead of doing as commanded by the
officer that he attempted to resist ar
rest and that the officer fired at him
with a shot gun and hit him In the
abdomen with*several small shot

to be a detective and made th*. nr
rest of Jefferson on the charge of
murder, has very mysteriously disap

any reward, though according to his
own statement there is a reward of
$.100.

There seems to be an absence of re
sentment. In fact those dismissed
are anxious that no student shall
leave on their account or because of
any pledge that they w-ould stick to
the ctaas. T. 8. Allen, captain of the
foot hall team, says that be was a
leader aftr ethe affair got started
cut and knocked unconscious sud M
B. Sims seriously cut by eight negroes
on Saturday night.
Sims and one of the negroes had a
difficulty over a box of rifle cartrid
ges and blows were exchanged. After
this the negro disappeared and Sims
supposed that the matter was at an
end. Later on, however, the negro
returned with seven friends, all well
armed with knives and sticks.
They attacked Sims and Sturgeon.
