IS RELEASED BY GRAND JURY No Evidence Against Negro Charged With Attempting To Assaulu A White School Teacher at Inskip. More Than A Score Fell Wounded When An Attempt Was Made To Take Innocent Man From Jail. MARTIN No Evidence Against Negro To Assaulu A White So MOB MAS STOPPED BY More Than A Score Fell Wounded Take Innocent Knoxville, Tenn. — Frank Martin, young Negro man who was arrested Thursday morning, Aug. 18, and charged with an attempted assault on Miss Jesse Parker, young white woman, a teacher of the school at Inskip, was given his release on Thursday morning following a session of the Knox co., grand jury betreth which Miss Parker appeared. The grand jury was in session less than an hour. The corridor of the courthouse was filled with interested spectators of both races, anxious to to know of the outcome of the hearing. It was known that Martin would be held for trial in criminal court should the young white woman contend that he was the person who assaulted her on the morning in August and should she change her former statement that he was the man, his release would be immediate y ordered. The door of the grand jury room opened and every eye was directed toward Foreman Hood, and at each of the jurors as they filed out and from the expression on their faces one could not determine as to to the decision they had reached. The jury walked into the criminal court room where Judge Nelson occupied his bench. After turning over the papers which contained a record of their findings Judge Nelson stated: "Gentlemen of the jury, I congratulate you upon your decision. After a careful investigation of the fact in the case you saw fit to exonerate the unfortunate young Negro of the serious charges against him. The guilty person remains at large. I now dismiss each of you indefinitely. The clerk will order the sheriff to release Martin." History of Case. Frank Martin, whose home is at Holt, Ala, a suburb of Tucalooosa, was arrested on the morning of August 18, by a posse oficious refreshments, and more than fifty guests were present. All expressed themselves as having a delightful time, and left Mrs. Martin, showering wishes of many more Happy Birthdays. SIX GENERATIONS, 112 TL 2 YEARS, HOLDING REUNION The Pas, Manitoba.—Six generations of one family are holding a reunion at Nelson House. They belong to the Cree tribe of indians. Sarah Donkey, aged 112, is the common ancestor of the other five. They are Caroline Spence, 90, daughter; John Donkey, 70, grandson; Ina Spence, 44, great-grand daughter; Sarah Donkey, 22,- great-great-granddaughter; Jemima Donkey, 2, great-great-granddaughter Sarah Donkey, 1., retains possession of white citizens and charged with being the man who is said to have attempted to assault Miss Jessie Parker, a young white woman, teacher of the school at Inskip. The attack is said to have occurred in broad open daylight near 7:30 o'clock in the morning as the woman was enroute to her school. She is said to have lost consciousness as the result of the attack and when she recovered sufficiently she went to the home of a citizen nearby and gave the alarm that she had been attacked by a Negro and dragged into a cornfield nearby where an attempt was made to criminally assault her. Immediately a posse of the citizens of the neighborhood was formed and the search began. Martin was seen riding on a freight train and arrested. Mob Seeks His Life. On Friday night following the attack on Miss Parker, a mob formed on the yards of the county courthouse for the purpose of storming the jail and lynching Frank Martin. But for the heroic offorts of Sheriff W. T. Cate and his efficient corps of deputies the young Negro walked from the jail on Thursday a free man, would have been dead and unless some one confessed later to the act it would never have been known as to whether Martin was guilty or innocent. Sheriff Cate warned the members of the mob that the law would take its course and the brave officer's warnings were answered by oaths directed at him. The mob threw rocks at him and branded him as a "nigger lover." Several shots were fired at the jail and officers, whereupon Sheriff Cate designated an imaginary line and warned the mob not to cross at the risk of their lives. When they surged forward the officers fired a volley and more than a score fell wounded. The mob quickly scattered and no further violence was offered. all her faculties except her eyesight, which is failing. She traveled 150 miles by canoe for the reunion.

Zion Association. A motion was made to forgive him and restore him to full fellowship of the M & Deacons Union and the hand of fellowship was given him. Among the many things that Rev. Bell said was, that he started off with the association but soon saw it was not the thing he wanted to follow, and had not met them for two years, that the church now belongs to the East Mt. Olive association and he wanted to be received back to his former standing with the brethren. We were all glad to have him return. "Old Rambler." Miss Hazel Howard spent the week end with her mother.

METROPOLIS WEEKLY GAZETTE. METROPOLIS. ILL Cartarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure cartarrh deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes. When this tube inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrah Peafness that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrah Medicine, Circulars free. All Druggists, 75c. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.

Greetings: I as Corresponding Secretary of this Union feel it my duty to remind you of the fact that the 30th annual session of this Union is swiftly approaching when we can show the people of Carbon-dale, the great work which we are setting forth.

It is not enough to ask each to do his bit, but would rathsay let each do his utmost to make this session a success. I wish to request that each pastor to collect the annual fees from those members of his who belong to this Union and find it difficult to be with us in this meeting. Hoping you much success in all good efforts. Yours as Cor. Sec'y, R. W. Phillips. Valedictory Remarks of the Late C. W. J. Boyd, Who Departed this Life, Sept. 11th. "Brethren Every Thing Is Alright Take Up The Work And Go On With It; I Am Tired, I Am Going Home." A mighty man has fallen, his heart was in the work, his place is vacant and he will be missed. Dr. Boyd, Secy. of the Educational Board, made a strong plea for the $12,000 for the work or rather the balance due on the School. As we remember it, the sum between four and five thousand dollars was raised. Before he made his final plea, he completed his earthly career. This will remind the brethren of their pledges. Now brethren may we hear from you at the earliest convenience. Dr. Boyd was beloved by all that knew him; to know him was to love him. The news first went out that it was Dr. R. H. Boyd, and from him to his son H. A. Boyd, the Convention was paralyzed on up to the close. The staff of The Gazette and its many readers are in deep sympathy with the widow of the late Dr. C. W. J. Boyd, who was so suddenly taken from our midst, while engaged in his religious and educational work while in New Orleans, La., by a bullet fired by a maniac. Peace to hts ashes. PULLMAN COMPAY PLANS TO EMPLOY RACE CONDUCTORS Reported Displacement Of White Men With Colored Creates Considerable Of A Stir In The South. Birmingham, Ala. —Birmingham railroad men displayed considerable interest in reports received from Memphis and Nashville to the effect that the Pullman Company has plans under way whereby white Pullman conductors are to be replaced bp Negro porter, to collect fares and perform other duties on many runs. It was stated in these reports that this experiment has been inaugurated on a number of lines in the North and is now being tried out in a quiet way in the South. Memphis reports indicate that attention was called to the practice by the strenuous protest of persons living along the Tennessee Central Railroad who, it is understood, have warned the state railroad and utilities commission that they will not tolerate it. F. J. Carten, representative of the Pullman Company in Birmingham, is at present on his vacation but W. A. Reed, who is acting in Mr. Carten's place, stated Wednesday that he had not received any advices from the Pullman Company on the point, although he had heard of the reports emanating from Memphis. Other railroad officials declared that they did not believe any such rule would be made effective in this territory. It was pointed out, however, that it has been the custom from time to time in the past on branch lines, where only one parlor car was attached to trains, to let the porter attend to collecting of fares and other duties under the direction of the conductor of such train. In the reports from Nashville, it is stated that six Pullman conductors may be dropped, and it is stated that four of these runs between Nashville and Memphis. A short time ago conductors were taken off two runs out of Memphis, one to Little Rock and one to Texarkana, it is claimed. It is further pointed out that Pullman conductors are said to make salaries of from $170 to $190 a month, while Negro porters are paid $60 to $70 a month, but make considerable more from "tips," and it is, therefore declared that for every run that a porter can be substituted for a conductor, the company would save about $100 per month. Interesting developments on several lines are expected in the next few days, especially trains between Nashville and Atlanta and between Nashville and Knoxville, it is declared.

ILL Sisters, and I must say Brethren of the East Mt. Olive Baptist Family. As State Missionary of Women's auxiliary, I am thankful that God has spared our lives to start on another year. Let us as women do more this year for the cause of Christ, than we did last year. Sisters, do you not stop and think? Oh yes, women were the first to behold the forsaken grave as Christ arose out of the tomb. If Jesus when on earth loved Mary and Martha so tenderly and sought often peace and repose in their home enjoying daily their sympathy, love and companionship? Does He not now desire and seek the Mary's of today who break their alabaster boxes of love and pour the precious ointment on the heads of the sick and sorrowing and suffering of the earth, and thereby fill the entire world with the fragrance of christianity?

The term "Indian summer" is applied to a period of mild, open weather that comes in the fall, embracing the most of October and sometimes extending into November, and characterized by a sort of dry mist or haziness that differentiates it from other seasons of the year. What causes the distinctive feature of the season, especially the heavy atmosphere, is unknown, and the origin of the term equally so. Differen. explanations have been given of both, but they seem to be largely fanciful. Just Holding close in Trust A little seven-year-old Boston girl came into the house the other day shewing gum vigorously. Her mother was horrified and ordered the little one to throw the gum away. The usually obedient child shook her head firmly. "I can't tarow it away," she said, "because it ain't mine. It belongs to Barbara, but she leapt it to the till two o'clock."
