1 NEGROES EXCITED, The Fear of Realisation of Alleged Prophecy Trrriftoa Them, ONE FRIGH TENFB TO DEATH ;. 11 Many Krrvanlw nml K.i ii I I Awny and A re mi*' in t??? \V o mIh. Wutthlni; lor I Firci. The negroes in Charleston are In a , lerriuiy unwi conuiuon over i ne prophecy of a crazy negro woman that : the city would he destroyed by a great (ire and that every one living in it would he burned up. The woman said i the city would Ihj destroyed Tuesday ' night of last week, but the passing of the set time without the catastrophe did not help matters as t he negroes are still excited. The Charleston Post ! says negroes spent bust night again in j the streets, parks and along the water I front, fearing that the senseless < prbpheey of tlie woman may yet be ' realized. Many of the negroes who < crossed the river by the Ashley bridge, and In small boats, when they saw the reflection of the tire in the suburbs, have not returned to the city, i Many households were again Tiinrsda.) morning without cooks and other ser vants. A large number of l.tlorers also skipped cut of the city, ai i.hey. have not yet lvturncd lotion positions. The reassuring wutd- the employers have had some ell.vt upon the frlghlened negroes, but 'tis -was not sufllcient to keep many note remaining up half the uighi, for fear i that the expected catastrophe might catch them in their beds or rooms, winch seemed a thing to be avoided. It is remarkable that such a condition of affairs should prevail for so long a time among tiie negroes, but it is all ow ing to the general ignorance of the the people. Some of the negroes have taken even their children from school, fearing that accident might befall them there. There is ro estimating the loss of life and the extent of the exodus which would have ensued on Tuesday night, if an alarm of tire had been turned in while the negroes were so terror-stricken. A panic would have taken place, which would certainly have had very serious consequences, considerably reducing the colored population ul Charleston. The coroners and police would have l?eeh busy and the city hospital would have been taxed to its utmost ca pucity. There would have boon enough crazy mgroesto till i he entire asylum at Columbia. As it has happened. the situation was bad enough, hut it would have been worse, it the tire bells had rung, tor it would have carried the conviction < l the destruction of Charleston deeper into ill hearts and mii ids of the negroes. Adelle Gail Iters, colored, aged 7."> years, died suddenly Wednesday alletnoon on premises No. 10 Chureh street. Coror ( r U"I>onn?-ll was o ailied and upon investigation it was found that site died from heart disease. The friends of the dead woman declare that her death was caused from fright. When the red glare was noticed in the northern heavens Tuesday night, caused by the burning of a negro church and four cabins three miles outside the city hurts, the women was territied and she remained awake all Tuesday night, singing and praying. The terrible nervous strain under which she labored all t hat night and Wednesday was more than die could stand. V i duesday she was seized w'th a sudden nervous attack and she died before medical aid could reach her. The Gaithers woman was thrown into a terrible state of excitement over the alleged prophecy that the city would be destroyed by tire on May 20. She believed that the prophecy would be rullilled and on Tuesday she watched for the lire and prayed for deliverance. When night came on and the w hole heavens in tlie northern part of the city were lit up by the tire outside ol the city limits, the old woman became wild. The excitement was more titan iter nervous system could stand, resulting in Iter death. Some Go.><1 Advice. Recently when Hooker T. Wushington spoke to a Chicago audience Hon. James II. Kckels, former comptrolier of the currency and now president of the Commercial National hank, of Chicago, introduced him. The Atlanta Constitution says Mr. Kckels is a man of great prominence in the business world of the west and Ids utJ teranees upon any subject arc always of value; but much more than ordinary interest will attach to his discussion of the particular matter, to which lie turned his attention upon this <.>ceasion. His argument that the real solution of the negro problem will be found when the people of the north realize that it is vastly more important 'o give to the negro the industrial tiaining necessary to tit him for good eiti- ' z.uship 111a11 t" prate about s ceil an i i political "rights" may not be new, hut ' the fact that it comes ln.pi such a| source is important, it is in the! I nature of cumulative evidence going 1 to prove that the thinking people of all parts ot t lie north are beginning to j see the negro problem in the proper j light. When men like Mr. IOckels and Mr. Cleveland and l>r. 1'arkliurst join B lp Impressing upon the people of the | northern states that what the negro most needs in his preparation for useful citizenship is industrial education ?the intelligent education of the n^HnH| hand; when such men realize for themselves, and show to their fellows that j^HHra^B the people of the south are working HSflp earnestly and honestly on these lines and when they point out the folloy of those who demand impossible things for the negro, they prove themselves' real friends of the negro race. That' northern sentiment is rapidly coming to a realization of the truths of the , race question is well for the country and well for the negro. \ jk. Wealthy Man Hilled. l>. W.

Waddeli, of Wdmint'ton, to secure soma information and his letter was leferred lo Col. W. II. S. Itorgwyn, of Weldon. This led t > a correspondence h tween Col. Iturgwyn and Mr. McConnetl. Later they met in Richmond, Va., when Mr. McConnell remarked that lie tired tiie last shot from ids company and brought down tiie colorbfarer (>f the Twenty-sixth North Carolina regiment. "Then you are, LI 10 man who shot Col John R. Lane,'' declared Col. Iturgwryn. Arrangements were then made for I lie meeting which to<?k place here Firuay, and Mr. McConnell said: "Yes 1 have come all the way fiorn Chicago and brought my wile t<?i iioi-t her purpi-AC that, to gra?p i Ihehuiidot th'gallut man I tried to j kill and tie.oglit Hen > hat 1 suece.edo. * Tin* i ea\i r. lo-.e- recorded on I n> to'i-iiin oattietieid we e i > the; Twenty s xili North Caiolum lvgimeat, with a >?ss of s?o per cent., and j the Twenty fourth Michigan, with Ho percent, loss.

Lane: "Tin battle was nearing its close at Gettjsburg.'' he said, "and only eight men of the fifty*four in our company in tiie Twenty-fourth Michigan regiment were left. Our ammunition was exhausted, but 1 had one cartridge left, which was to be the last shot wc tired at Gettysburg. As I loaded ray rille my lieutenant commander said: 'Charlie, sec that splendid color-bearer, cannot you throw him over?" and lie pointed to the colonel not as far as across this street from me. 'I have my last cartridge and 1 am going to 11y.* 1 replied as 1 rested my rule against a small tree and took careful aim at. the man waving his colors and shouting to ids men. i tired, saw him fall and then hastened to join my comrades retreating through Gettysburg to Gulp's Hill." "II" is the man who shot me." interposed Col. Lane, laving his hand a fleet innately on Mr. MeConnell's shoulder. "II was Just as the battle endtdanh I had turned lo cheer on in> handful of men and was waving our tailors tint the ball struck me." Col.

Whipped l?.v While Cups. A Spartanburg dispatch to The Stale says Thursday afternoon Jim 1'ruilt, colored, accompanied by his wife, Alma l'ruilt, from the Cross Anchor section, arrived in the city and appeared at Magistrate Kirby's olllco. They rclcatcd a pitiful tale of misery how some white men had taken Jim l'ruitt from his house last Tuesday night and administered on his hare limbs a severe whipping; so, lacerating and bruising him that he! was mmici ly able to walk, ll appears. | hiiwevi r, that he made nut 1 journey | to that city < ne week later. He was i certainly well (Incited. Neither .lim| nor his wife see in to know why the j nifiii whipped him. The white cappers' threatened them will) death it they ( made any mention of the lawless oe- j eurrenee. Magistrate Kirhy referred I them, by letter, to Magistrate Mike Patt.nn, at Cross Anchor, who will doubtless investigate the case and put an end to such proceedings. t'oui Killed.

A series t.r heavy storms, two of which developed into the worst tornadoes that have visited southern No uraslwi in years, passed over portions of Clay, Franklin and Kearney counties Sunday evening. Fifteen persons arc known to have lost theii lives and over a score of persons were more or less seriously injured. Near Norman, at llio home of Daniel MoUurdy, a number of relatives and friends were spending the day and not one in the house escaped death or serious injury. Two miles south of I'pland, German Lutheran services were being hold in the school house when the storm struck and demolished it, killing four of the occupants, including the minister and injuring a number of others. The storm was equally destructive at Fairlield, but the people were warned of its coining and sought cellars tor safety. Six dwellings were blown to pieces at that place bin Mich* occupants escaped injury w ith tew except inns. lOvery dwelling and oir.l lidding in the path of the tornado was blow n to pieces and the tiuauciel loss thus far accounted (or, vvi.l reach about $00,000.

They lived near Noiman and were separated by the storm. i? being feared at tirst that most of tlierr, had been killed. There were two tornadoes, bot h oiiginuting within a mile of Fairlield. The lirst one moved to the northwest and the second oil to the southwest. The one to the northwest did Lire greater damage and all the fatalities seem to have been in its path. The greatest loss of property was sustained by farmers. The heaviest individual loss reported Is that suffered by Charles Taylor, who places the damage to Ids st<>ck farm including cattle and horses killed at $21,000. wo ? *t|iitir?mi a ? oiiipaii> . A prominent feature around Mississippi headquarters, which were the [liveliest in line, was Judge Harris of Memphis, Tenn., who was a Mississippian prior to lbs removal to Tennessee. Judge Harris told recently of the capture of an entire company of Yankees i>y one man of his command, the Seventeenth Mississippi, who was aided by a negro. The man was.lohn Lake. The negro who aided him w;?. known as Sandy. Lake, who was in company F, sighted the soldiers, who were in camp. Instructed Sandy, and sending him to tiank them, he boldly walked up in front with drawn sword and demanded their surrender. Tire ,i ankees sprang for their anus, when he yelled out: "Shall we open tire ; captain?" Thinking that they were surrounded, the Yankees laid down their arms and were marched olT to the main body of the Confederates. New Orleans Picayune. A iliiiuati builder. In the destruction by tire of a fourstory apartment house on Fulton Street, Hrookljn, one policeman was fatally and two others seriously Inirned while l"? inmates wefe rescued only by great effort of the police and tiremen. l'nliceinan J. F. Havens readied the tliiid lioor and passed Mrs. Nellie Smith and her three children to policemen McAuley and Cook to assist them down the stairway. The tire cut them off from the stairs, and Havens fill unconscious from smoke. Firemen finally reached them, and Mrs. Smith and the policeman were taken down the ladder into the street. The tireman discovered a young child in the front part of the house, and there being no time to lose, they mounted on one another's shoulders, and. forming a human ladder, rescued ii i m: uauiage caused oy tne lire was a'lout $."il),000. .V lilrl'a Tragic Death. At Home, N. V., with a halter rope tied around her wrist and a frightened colt running at top speed, ltena Webster, of Northwestern, was dragged a half mile over a rough highway and killed. Miss Webster, who was -0 years of age, led the colt to allow it to eat in the highway. While the animal was feeding she sat down by the roadside and engaged in sewing. To prevent the animal from getting away, she fastened the end ol the long halter rope to her wrist. The coll suddenly became frightened and ran away. Miss Webster was dragged headlong into the roadway, and the horse ran into the* village of Northwestern. dragging liie girl at end of l he rope. NaiiuM Slayers*. Mis. . 1 >.

A dlfcputoh from (lalnesvllle, (*&., to tho Atlanta Journul savs the coroner of that county recently held an Investigation of peoulhu^clrcumstancex surrounding the sudden death of Wiley | Tanner, a young man of one of the most prominent families of the southern portion of the county, which occurred near Ills home Saturday about noon. Young Tanner is is years of age, and was six weeks ag<? married to Miss Onie Duncan, tlie l"?-year-old daughter of Mr. Frank Duncan, one of the most influential citizens of this county. The pair lived with Mr. Tanner's parents until 'ast Wednesday, when they fun i.shed their home and wentto iuiim;Mr|iiiiVi iiniig nuppilY lOgeilier. Saturday at noon the young iran came home from his work and began the mid-day meal, lie drank a small I quantity of buttermilk, which lie declared possessed a peculiar taste. lie rose hast ily from the table and ran to his father's store, where ho soon was sutTiriug agonies, lie exclaimed," "I've been poisoned," and in a fuw minutes was dead: He had been sick somewhat for several days and had i been taking medicine, it, was reportj ed that he was poisoned with stryeh! nine, but warther lie was accidentally I poisoned, or whether he died from 1 other cause is to Is- determined, if possible, at the conclusion *>f the coroi tier's investigation, when the chemists' I analysis 01 ttie contents of the dead j man's stomach will he made known. Scores of rumors art ailoat, which it ! half true would make a sensational lease, but it is impossible, to verify i thorn. The body t>r Mr. Tanner was | buried Monday at Chestnut Mountain I church and 1,000 to 1,200 people atj tended the service. Those Kiin iawi Atrocities. Count Cassini's explanation of those Russian massacres will hardly tie accepted at tull face value by the American public. If one-tenth the stories coming from Europe are true, racehatred or fanaticism must have been at the bottom of the terrible happenings at Kishinef. Those who are interesting themselves in raising lunds for tiie relief of the suffering and distressed Jews will certainly have the hearty cooperation of all charitable and Christian people. The tendency to hold the Russian government or the. Russian church responsible for those massacres may not lie warranted, however. It cannot be possible that the authorities of the church gave open, or even secret, sanction to.such ; trocitics. It cannot, tic possible, even in rsmote Kishinef, that there has been no progre s from the days when bloody deeds were performed under guise of Christianity. Nor should we as yet con| demn the Russian government for 'these lawless outbreaks on the part of the people of one community or province of that vast empire. I'nfiirt lltlHt.l-l V U'll t -lVO Iwil l-lwO.r,,<l breaks o! various kinds in our own fair land. It is probable that tlie czar is. directly or indirectly, no more responsible loir those ICisliiucf atrocities than was the president ??r the United States lor the shooting down of negro miners in Illinois whose only crime was a desire to work. Not until it ipioventhat the proper governing an tliorities have failed to mete out adequate punishment to t he law breakers and murderers should they he condemned. It is lo he hoped, however, thai the czar realizes t hat he is on 'rial before the enlightened public opinion of the civilized world.
