TO DIE BEFORE XMAS
?
Trial at Barn well Results in Conviction
of Negro, Scott Madison?Testimony
Clearly Against llim and
Two Said Ho Told Them of Killing
a White Man.
Scott Madison, colored, will pay the
death penalty for tho murder of Mr.
E. Peyton Pest in Barnwell on tho
night of December 8, between Friday,
December 19, and Monday, Decomber
22, inclusive. Such was tho
sentence of Judge Ciago lato Monday
afternoon, after tho jury had brought
In a verdict of guilty of murder as to
Madison, and guilty of assault and
battery as to Gilbert Miller, also colored.
i lie testimony of the rase seemed
to show conclusively that Madison
%vas the guilty party, although ho denied
having committed tho crime. A
summary of tho testimony Is given
lielow. Ed Durant, a negro, who was
tho first witness, testified that Mr.
Best pushed Miller, who was standing
in tho door of tho restaurant,
out of his way, when ho left the
building, and that Miller then threw
a hottle at him and ran. According
to the testimony, Mr. Best turned and
asked Scott Madison who hit him, the
defendant replying that the man that
hit him was the one running down
the street. Mr. Best then turned to
walk away and tho fatal shot was
li red.
The testimony of Rufus James,
Mitchell Stroy and Julius Williams,
tho proprietor of tho restaurant and
pool room in question, all corroborated
in the main tho statements
made hy Durant.
Major R. Boyd Colo testified to
finding a pistol under tho depot, upon
information given hy Andrew Simms,
tho same being, it was alleged, the
ono with which tho murder was committed.
Dr. R. C. Kirkland testified as to
tho nature of the gunshot wound on
the body of Mr. Rest?that tho bullet
entered from the hack and passed
entirely through tho body.
Mr. Alva Mellett, tho undertaker,
testified that there was a small bruise
bohind the left ear of the dead man,
which could have been caused by a
blow from a bottle.
Mr. Vince Dunbar, who was standing
In the doorway of Hearse's pool
room at the time of the tragedy, testified
to having seen tho smoke from
the pistol immediately after tho firing
of the two shots; that Mr. Best
staggered towards him and Mr. A.
M. Harden, exclaiming as ho fell,
"Hoys, I'm aliot." That deceased
died immediately thereafter.
Mr. A. M. Harden, who was standing
by Mr. Dunbar at the time of the
shooting, testified to having seen the
flash of the pistol in front of tho
negro restaurant and that he caught
Mr. Best in his arms as deceased was
falling.
Andrew Sims, a negro section
hand, testified that Scott Madison had
attempted to buy his pistol?a 3 8oalibre,
left-hand Wheeler?from
him on the afternoon of tho shooting;
that ho refused to let tho defendant
hare it and that it was lator stolen
from his trunk, presumably by Madison
returned the pistol and said that
he had killed a white man; that wittioss
became frightened and hid the
pistol under tho A. C. L. freight depot.
(Albert Cave, colored, testified that
a negro threw a bottle at Mr. Best,
who turned and asked who hit him.
No ono replied, and deceased then
turned and started up tho street,
when a negro snapped a pistol at him
thrco times. Another negro, ho said,
then fired tho shots, one of which hit
Mr. Best in tho back. Witness could
not identify tho assailants, who were
strangers.
Scott Madison is from Remini. Ho
was put upon tho stand in his own
defence, and told a story entirely at
varianco with tho testimony of the
witness for the State. So unsupportable
was his testimony, that he got
badly mixed in tho telling and no
weight was given to it whatever. He
denied doing the killing, but said that
it was done with tho gun ho had gotten"
from Andrew Simms. lie accusA

Gilbert Miller testified in his own
behalf, and apparently told a
straightforward story, impressing his
hearers with the truth of his stato?
ments. He admitted buying a bottle
of whiskey in the restaurant; stated
that Mr. Best had pushed him out of
the way, and that he had hit tho dead
man with a bottle, after which he
ran away, and that ho was quite a
good distance off when the shots were
fired. He later met Madison, who, he
said, admitted having shot a white
man.
Two negro women and Seaman '
Moore were put on the witness stand,
hut they denied knowing anything
connected with tho tragedy.
This completed the case. Tho jury
Svas out about twenty minutes, returning
tho verdict given above. Miller
was sentenced to thirty days on
tho chain gang. After sentence had
DEATH LIST IS GROWING
LATEST REPORTS FROM SOUTH
TEXAS SHOWS 150.
IV?r Frocz? and Famine ? Appeals
for Help From Flooded Districts
Meets Hearty Response.
The number of known dead as a
result of tho flood, which was spread
over the lowlands in half a dozen
counties in South Central Texas, has
reached 150, with several thousand
i refugees marooned in half-flooded
cotton gins and dwelling houses, safe
from the water for tho time being,
but suffering from hunger and exposure.
Four-fifths of the dead and
marooned were negro farm hands.
Of the dead tho greater number
lost their lives in tho vicinity of
Bryan, where a thirty-mile stretch of
levee along the Brazos river crumbled
under tho pressure of the Hood.
Hempstead, in Walter county, from
which reports up to this time had
been meagro, reported twenty drowned
and others missing. Reports from
half a dozen other small towns in
Walter and adjoining counties advanced
tho total fatalities to 150 in
all.
The San Feupo section of Austin
county, whero fears were expressed
for several hundred persons marooned
on a slight elevation, received a
^ l. I
smpmeni or motor boats from Houston,
which rapidly removed the refugees
to safety. The great danger
now is freezing and starvation. For
tho second successive night ico was
forecasted over tho thirty-nine district
about Bryan, where 1,800 persons,
mostly negroes, are marooned
with little food or ilro.
Urgent appeals for blankets and
food were received from all over the
stricken district, from central Texas
almost to tho Gulf coast. A trainload
of provisions was ordered from
Austin to Cause, in Milam county, on
tho Bazos for H00 marooned. Close
to Simonton, in Fort Bend county,
near the mouth of tho Brazos river,
fifty persons were shut up in a warehouse
without food.
Tho Brazos crest went through a
dam near Richmond Tuesday, flooding
a State convict farm. The prisoners
had been removed. Texas cities
have all began pouring money and
supplies into tho flooded district.
Houston raising $8,000 in cash.
In the vicinity of Bryan seven of
those drowned were members of rescue
parties whose flimsy boats woro
overturned. Ono of tho most heroic
sacrifices was that of three young
Bryan business men. all of whom a
in a tree north of that city from exposude
after their two motorboats
had capsized. These three, Howard
R. Cavltt, Clifton Elzie and Asa J.
Robbins, started Saturday noon with
Tom Evans, another Bryan man, to
carry provisions to a point about
twenty miles north of Bryan. Their
boat overturned on a snag. Robbins,
Cavitt and Evans got into a tree together
with Elzie in a treo fifty yards
away.

GOVERNMENT TELEGRAPH OWNERSHIP
CONSIDERED. i
Postmaster General Burleson Will
Submit I^indiiiKH on Question in
His Annual Report.
Government ownership of telegraph
and telephone lines throughout .
the eountry is being seriously considered
by President Wilson. Conferences
between tho president and
Postmaster General Burleson have
led to a gathering information nbout
the practical working of government
ownership in thoso nations where
such a system is in operation. Tho
subect will bo discussed at Rome
length in the postmaster general's ,
annual report, soon to bo made pub- ]
lie, though it is by no means assured
that ho will make any positive rec- i
ommendat ions. I
Tho postmaster general saw tho ]
president for a few minutes Wednes- (
day and while they did not discuss (
tho subject. Mr. Burleson said as he
left tho White House that on previous j
occasions when he discussed the sub- i
Ject with the president he had found \
his mind open and receptivo to infor
mat ion. Though hills have been j
drafted by members of congress look- ]
ing to government ownership, none |
has been agreed upon as an ad minis- ;
tration measure, while the result of ,
Mr. Burleson's investigations are be- <
ing awaite(i. <
"There is no doubt," said Mr. Bur- j
leson, "that the inauguration of the ]
parcel post and the postal savings |
system have given a tremendous im- t
petus to the desire of people all over
tho country to have the government
own the means of communication |
everywhere. It is a subject involv- ,
ing two or three hundred million (
dollars ami we must go very slowly (
in inquiring into it. Every great |
nation except us has adopted it. <
"When Sir Herbert Samuels, post- i
master general of Great Britain, was i
hero recently, 1 had two long talks |
with him. It has proved a success in {
England. 1 do not want to make any
recommendations to congress until I <
am absolutely sure of my ground." |
Although Mr. Burleson seems to i
favor the plan for government owner- ]
ship, it is said that it will not meet ]
the unanimous approval of President ]
Wilson's cabinet. It is believed in of- ]
ficial circles Attorney General Mc- j
Reynolds, for one, would show his .
aversion to such a plan if tho matter ;
is seriously taken up in tho White
House. * I ]
The Hong Ago.
A wonderful stream is tho River of
Time, .
As it Hows through tho realm of
tears
With a faultless rhythm and musical
rhyme.
And a broader sweep and a surge sublime,
Ere it blends with the Ocean of
Years,
How the winters are drifting, like
flakes of snow,
And the summers like buds between,
And the years in their shenvna no ,
they come and go,
On the river's breast, with its ebb and 1
flow, t
Ere they glide in the shadows and 1
sheen. i
There's a magical isle up the Itiver of <
Time, r
Where the softest of airs are play- ?
ing; (
There's a cloudless sky and a tropical (
clime,
And songs as sweet as a vesper's j
chime, i
And the Junes with the roses are
straying. (
The name of that islo is The Long (
Ago;
We bury our treasures there.
There are brows of beauty and bos- f
oms of snow;
There are heaps of dust; but we love
them so;
There are trinkets and tresses of :1
hair.
There's a fragment of song that no- r
body sings, '
And part of an infant prayer; n
There's a lute unswept and a harp v
without strings? ?

There are hands that wo waved, as n
the fairy shore
By the mirago is lifted in air; f
And sometimes wo hear, through the h
turbulent roar, p
Sweet voices wo heard, in tho days f

When tho wind down the river is y

Oh, remember, for aye, ho that fairy (j
