m Room in tlor«t' ’
A blunder by tbe murderers 'n
wronfly routing a t‘n o sent to the
iiTbn itindn in Termnir, c
was tbe means late Tuesday of dis
closing a ghastly jiuroer The rlc-
tlm is WiUam JO’ujme who, with
bis wife and seven-year-old son. ar
rived at Portland on Monday morn
ing in company with a man who
want by tbe name of A. C. Powers.
Tbe party registered at a chert
North side hotel. "Powers," as com
ing from Nome, Alaska. The John
sons did not give their residence.
Powers, whose real name Is J. P.
ebb, and Mrs. Johnson, ware ar
rested at an up-town lodging house
early Wednesday. They were located
through finding the little boy, dur
ing the absence of Powers, or Webb,
and the woman. They were appre
hended as they were returning from
an automobile trip to a suburban re
sort- Both the man and woman,
though Intoxicated, denied all know
ledge of the crime. Webb declared
he saw Johnson last at the Union
station Tuesday afternoon, waiting
for a train to go to Seattle. He as
serted Johnson was intoxicated at
tha time. Nothing important was
elicited from either.
On Webb’s person was found two
watches, one of which Mrs. Johnson
Identified as her husband’s, and two
ladies’ handkerchiefs, both blood
stained. One of Webb's hands was
injured and bandaged. He carried
an International Typographical Un
ion car, issued by Vancouver, B. C.,
local No. 226.
An ordinary-looking trunk was re
ceived at the depot late in the day
and ordered checked via the Oregon
and Washington railroad to North
Puyallup, a station not on that road.
Shortly before 10 o’clock Tuesday
night the trank wee taken to t^s
platform. There the mistake was
noticeable, and It was sent back to
the baggage room. A little latet
one of the baggage men noticed a
pool of blood, which had trickled
- from the trunk broke It open and dis
covered the body of a man.
Investigation by the detectives de
veloped that the man’s name was
W. A. Johnson, and a visit to the
rooms occupied by him and his fam
ily resulted Tn the discovery that
* the mattress was saturated with
blood and also that blood.was spat-
tsred over many personal belongings
of Johnson.
The detectives believe Johnson
^ras first drugged »wJth the alcohol,
then struck oaer the temple with
a^ "black Jack” as he lay on the b«d,
next shot through the temple, and
finally, to make certain, Johnson's
neglllgee shirt had been twisted and
tightly knotted about his neck.
Among Johnson's belongings was a
large number of cards bearing the
name "Miss May Webster," and
some of them having the address
”316 South Wall Street,” and others
"1031* Ellis Street,” Ban Francisco.
The Wall street address does not
name any city, but is believed by
the police too be In Spokane, Wash.
In “Powers” room a suit case was
found containing a blackjack clot
ted with blood and frayed at the
end, a bank book of the Scandlna-
vian-American Bank of Seattle, be
longing to J. P. Webb, some loose en
velopes which had borne 1 (he same
address, and an International Typo
graphical Union card No. 226, Issued
by the Vancouver (B. C.), local to
J. C. Webb.
According to the clerk of the ho
tel the trunk left the hotel about the
middle of the afternoon. The clerk
said he remembered the Incident, be-
cauie the porter commented on its
weight, after having carried it 4e
the expresss wagon. A few minutes
later the clerk stated, Mrs. Johnson
and her child left the hotel and did
not return. About 6 o'clock "Pow
ers” came down, and after saying he
was going out for a little while,
mentioned that the Johnsons would
probably go to Seattle On the night
train.
Over $1,800 In currency was found
on Mrs. Johnson. The woman said
her husband -had -recently sold -a
farm near Seattle, and had entrust
ed the money to her for safekeeping.

Ignorant Negroee Serving Shortest
Terms In South Carolina Peniten
tiary.
Figures that ahould cause all
thoughtful advocates of the so-call
ed higher education among the ne
gro raoe to ponder yet a little more,
compiled showing the
startling conditions that of the ne
groee incarcerated within South Car
ollna State penitentiary those most
highly educated are serving the long
est sentences. The poor Ignorant
negroes are Imprisonedjfor the minor
crimes and offenses while the negroee
who have had a school or college
education are the life-timers and the
"overmen year” prlsonera
That this le the condition alao in
the county chaingangs and on the
public works of the counties and In
the Jails throughout the state is
the opinion of Commissioner K. J.
Wlatson, of the department of agri-
ouituiVe, bommeree and. industries,
by which department the figures
were compiled.
Asked for an explanation of the
compilation and the possible rea
sons fior the condition shown to exist
Commissioner Watson stated Tues
day that the figures showed beyond
reasonable doubt that the academic
education le not the thfiif for the
negro. Commissioner Watson advo-
oates education of the negro along
industrial lines and thinks that the
negro should also have sufficient
schooling to be able to keep the ac-
oounts on the farm Summing up
the situation the commissioner said
that the proper education of the n^-
gro is to further his usefulness in
the Industrial world by means of
proper instruction In subjects, that
tend tto increase his manual effi
ciency.
The commissioner and his assist
ants had a wide field to base their
compilations upon for there were
635 negro prisoners examined, of
this number 478 being males and 5 <
being females.
The total number of male life
prisoners Is 256 of the negro race
Of this number 10 read and write
without attending school. One hun
dred and seven attended the common
schools from one to ten years. Sev
enteen attended school less than one
year. Six attended college. The
summary shows 123 who cannot
read and write ad 133 who can read
and write.
Of the female colored prisoners
who are serving life sentence, the
toial 11.. None read and write
without attending school. Five at
tended common school 1 to 10 years
and none of those who attended
school did go for one year or less
Two of the life prisoners among the
colored women attended college
There are four who cannot read and
write and 7 wlso can read and write
A further analysis of these figures
shows that there Is altogether 267
life termers of the 536 negro prls
oners at the penitentiary, reforma
tory and state farm. That of this
number 140 can read and write,
attended college and less than one
half of the total number cannot
read and write.

Two of Poeee Fired at Him Rat It
U Not Known That He Waa Hit.
Womaa Is Arrested.
A dispatch from Walterboro says
that at Williams on Saturday night
at 10 o’clock Dr. 8. E. Kinsey waa
shot and aerlonaly wounded by Joe
Freeman, a negro.
flgtarday afternoon Dr. Kinsey's
iba wai siending at the ddhr 61 the
store of Quinn Bros, when Lena
Freeman, a negro woman, came up
ihe steps to enter the store door
and said to Mr. Kinsey: “Soma one
wants to coma In.” Mr. JKlnaay step
ped out of the way and looking back
saw this negro woman.
He expected to see some white
woman enter, and Jokingly remarked
that he thought It waa somebody
The negro took out a knife from her
pocket and began to abuag Mr. Kin
sey, who Insisted that she hush and
stated to her that he did not mean
any harm by the remark, which waa
Jokingly made.
She continued her abuse and left
the store shortly, and going, to her
home, returned with her husband,
Joe Freeman, she carrying a gun
Mr. Kinsey was informed of this
fact and went to his home and re
turned with his gun, which he put
in Mr. Brabham's store. His father,
hearing of this came over to the
store and instructed his son to put
the gnn up and go to Magistrate Wil
son and take out a warrant for the
negroes and have them arrested.
This Mr. Kinsey did and turned the
warrant over to Constable Maxey
who went over to Williams to make
Jthe arrest. Maxey appointed Dr.
Kinsey and others as special con
stables to aid him in making the
arrest.
The party proceeded to the home
of the Freemans, but just before
reaching it, they were Informed that
Joe Freeman was back at the store
of Quin Bros, with his gun. They
returned to the store and attempted
to arrest him, who seeing the party
approach ran. They went back to
the home, where the woman was ar
rested. After securing her they
started to leave and Joe Freeman
appeared behind a clump of bushes
near the house crying: ’’Get out of
there.”
At the same time he shot Into the
crowd, the ahot taking effect just
above Dr. Kinsey’s hip. The negro
then made his escape into the dark
ness. Dr. .Kinsey was taken back
home and was attended. It was
found that the gun had been loaded
with a slug, but fortunately the load
produced only painful flesh wounds
Efforts were made Sunday morn
ing to catch. Freeman and he was
seen several times by the pursuing
party, but owing to the thickness of
the undergrowth In the bays near
Williams, he has so far eluded cap
ture.

ROBBERY THE MOTIVE
Max Lubelsky, of 543 King St.,
Charleston .tailor and clothier, aged
37 years, waa found in a dying con
dition at hia store Tuesday morn
ing at about 11.45 o’clock, by Max
Posner, of 56 Line street, with three
ugly wounds in the back of the head,
evidently Inflicted with a large slat,
found lying In the vicinity of the
body, in the hands of a party or par
ties as yet unknown. The desperate
ly wounded man was rushed to the
hospital in a police ambulance, but
died from hemorrhage and a frac
tured skull at 1.18 o’clock P. M. A
rifled cash drawer found In the rear
of the premises, and the disappear
ance of several articles and valua
bles from the store, led the police to
believe that the motive for the mur
der was robbery.
The killing caused a sensation
throughout the city, especially among
the Jewish population in the upper
part of town. A number of friends
of the dead man have offered a re
ward of $500 for the capture of the
guilty party.
Max Posner, a peddler, was the
first came to discover Lubelsky lying
on the floor of his own store. He
stated to the police that he entered
the establishment at about 11.30
o'clock, in company with his little
daughter, to whom he wished to
show some chickens and pigeons
hich he had sold Lubelsky
several weeks ago. Finding the
store apparently deserted, Posner
walked into the yard- in search of
his friend. He came back and took
a seat in the middle of the store.
Suddenly his eyes beheld a steady
stream of blood running towards him
from beneath a counter on the op
posite side of the store, arpd upon
examination he found Lubelskf in a
half sitting posture between the sec
ond and third counters. He tried
to get the wounded man to talk,-but
was unsuccessful, and immediately
went in search of' assistance. A phy
siclan arrived on the scene in ans
wer to a hurry summons, -and was
followed immediately by officers.
The wounded man was sent to the
hospital In a police ambulance. Sev
eral doctors took up the work of at
tempting to save his life, but ail ef
forts proved to be useless, and he
died In about one hour's time with
out having regained consciousness
John Cross, a driver for a city ex
press concern, delivered a box of dry
goods to the Lubelsky establishment
at ebout 11.15 o’clock, placing the
box in front of the store. Cross then
went Inside for the purpose of hav
ing his book receipted for the goods
and was met by a negro, who told
him that he, the porter, had been
left in charge of the establisment
while Lubelsky had stepped across
the street. After a several minutes
wait. Cross left, stating that he would
be in again for the purpose of hav
ing the book signed. The police be
lieve that the unknown negro had
already overpowered Lubelsky when
Cross entered the store, and on being
interrupted by the latter, had bodily
declared himself as being the por
ter of the establishment. .
Columbia Gets Appropriation of 975,'
OOO for New Site.—Camden and
Bennetterllle Each 900,000.
A Washington dispatch says that
’‘President Taft will affix hia signa
ture, during the next day or two,
to the public building bill of the
present session, Just passed, and
1 ihjprrtHBr a tefda amouat
of money will be spent, in different
parts of the United States, in the
erection of Federal buildings.
A careful Inspection of tbe figures
shows that South Carolina ha s been
well “provided for, the following be
ing the provisions. Camden, $50,000;
Gaffney, $10,000; Orangeburg, $10,
000; Columbia, $75,000; Bennetts
ville, $50,000; Marlon, $7,500;
Laurens and Union, each $10,000,
Newberry, $10,000.
While the members of the South
Carolina delegation worked hard to
secure these amounts, credit should
be given Representative Johnson of
Spartanburg, a member of the House
committee on buildings and grounds
for his work. As the matter stands
now every city and town in South
Carolina which, under the law, is
entitled to receive a Federal build
ing, either hag one completed, un
der construction, or authorized.
The Columbia appropriation is for
the purchase of a new building site
The amounts of less than $50,000
are in addition to previsions made
for the cities In former bills.
