MARCH 21, 1901. 1 THE EXCURSION EVIL. j MllU n AOOA IfKloK I I Ill CUnilOOUUII mill n V*I!C niiivu came up in court this week it is i befitting to make some comment ' on negro excursions and the evil 1 that too frequently grows out of i them. ()'? such occasions, as at < the deadly hot supper closely al- ' Hied to them, there are genera llj' among the participants a number < of young toughs armed with knives, razors and pistols literally 1 looking for trouble. ' In the case in question the ex- I eursion train left Georgetown to j' rMtnrii so llill at a lata I' hour. A ro* occurred in which!1 several young negroes wereim-i" plicated, one ol whom loj*t bisj' life, Because the tragedy hap |1 peued to take place iu Williams-M burg county the case had to beh tried here and the county put to|1 kundredi of dollars expense on'1 account of the conduct of irrc-; sponsible negroes?none of whom i1 lived in this county?and our ( tax-payers have the bill to foot. J The people are growing tired of this sort of thing, and it is tiuie a slop were put to it. It strikes usj that it the railroad authorities; ^ wou'd exercise more discretion if! j | arranging their schedules on su6h ! occasions and place the car* un- j" der proper police regulation such j j occurrence* might be avoided. |. The evidence showed that although ! < t his was a negro excursion, with { no coaches for whiles, ret there i1 were white mt*n in the crowd, onej of whom testified on the stand j j that he was riding in the seat with : . I a negro woman. If such things: be aliowed, what is the use of a; Jim Crow car law? It is to avoid tins commingling of the races that the law was enacted. Again, throughout the serious! row that occurred, there is no evidence that the conductor or a sin? i -- I gle railroad employe was present , before or during the trouble. It'i conductors on these trains did their duty as laid down by the i law there would be belt r seen-! lily for our lives than at pie-.ent ) exists. It hag come to pass that : a negro excursion is often IitUe short of u mob?the difl'erepoe being that a mob is usually after . j an individual, while the reckless' excursionist deems it his privilege ) to kill anyone that gets in his way.). The law is strict enough on this subject; all it needs is to be en-! Joreed. In response to our appeal last I week a good many in arrears c une! up and paid their subscription, for ' which,one and all, they will pleaie necept our thinks.

Excellent Entertainment Mark? the Close of Miss Hemingway's School. Editor County Record: YVe would appreciate space in rour columns to render a short iccount of an excellent entertainment at Rkerns, 8. C . March 15, tnst. i'he occasion marked tho jlosing of Miss Lila Hemingway^ tchool. This excellent voting lady deserves to be highly commended lor her thorough and earneat work and the good results thereby accomolisbed. The select ions of the entertainment were ?ood and the rendition pare eviience of thorough and efficient 'raining. The address before the school was delivered by Prof. (J. M. Melton, principal of Oak Grove Academy, Clarendon, S. \ Relating anecdotes, he kept the children entertained and impressed on Iris hearers the great demand for trained minds, showing that as indention removes physical labor and multiplies manifoldly the amount if work acconipli>hed, the mind ;s more ami more called up<ui to perlorm the task. Then, in eloping, lie pointed out strength of character as essential to the highest success and emphasized usefulness as a prime object of life. Rev. K. G. Kilgore, the pastor here*. who hau opened the exercises with a prayer, was uow cmIIL'd upon. lie understands captivating instantly the hearts of children. All who heard him were pleaded and compelled much '>f the time to allow laughter to hold s* ay. Nevertheless, the truth impressed was profound, and he brought out clearly the possibilities of the youug in attaining not only to success, but 1U0 in becoming truly great aud good. The closing scene was the pathetic one. Wheu kind and tender farewells wore exchanged, bitter :eai? were nhed by the lit?le pupils. FamiSy IV Cough Honey. Kidney * Backache CURE.
