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. \

Later they met in Richmond, Va.,
when Mr. McConnell remarked that

in reply to a reporter's question
Mr. McConnell gave this account of
the shooting of Co!. 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

against a small tree and took careful

shouting to ids men. i tired, saw him
fall and then hastened to join my
comrades retreating through Gettysburg

"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

Col. I/me raised his Mark locks and

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.

and demanded their surrender. Tire

? SH8ATI0NAL DEATH.
A Youtit lluiband l? PoUontil In
Hall County, Cm.
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

directly or indirectly, no more responsible
loir those ICisliiucf atrocities
than was the president ??r the United

was a desire to work. Not until it ipioventhat
the proper governing an
