A motion was made for anew trial before Judge Mackey, who held that he did not have the right tu grant it, but the supreme court held that he did, and ‘wae afterwards acquitted. In this case, the history of which fulluws, Solictor Thurmond has been advised that he request a special term of court, On Cctober 17 the following pe- tition was filed with the governor asking a respite for Aaron Williams who was sentenced to be hanged November 4 nest: At the General Sessions court for Kershaw county, which was held at this place last wech, one Aaron Wil- Hiams, colored, was convicted of hay- ing committed rape upon Mrs. Laog- ley, a white woman, and Judge Pur- dy,the trial judge, sentenced the prisoner to be hanged November 4. We, the undersigned citizens of Kershaw county, firmly believe and hone-tiy helieving that there are cir cumatances comiected with this case which will appeal to your excellency why the defendant in this case does not deserve the imposition of the desth penalty, respectfully petition your eacellency to grant 2 respite in ihis case tor at least thirty days nntil we can make the proper and con- -~vineing showing why Williams should not be executed, and our reasons therefor. The petition is largely signed. On October 17 Governor Heyward declined to grant the petition for the reason that it was too general in terms and showing no specific reason why it should be granted. did not appear from the petition that new evidence, if produced, would have any effect and would not have been other than cumulative. That due diligence was not used at the trial to discover this evidence. The gov- ernor notified the petitioners to this effect, inasmuch as it is a settled proposition of law that if an appes] had been taken to the supreme court and that if a prima facie showing had been made of this that the court would have remanded the case to the cir- cuit court to allow 2 motion fora new trial to made before that tribunal The following affidavits were sub- mitted: County of Kershaw. Personally appeared J.J. B. Trues- dale on oath, do say that Aaron Wil- liams did not commit rape on Mrs. Langley. Aaron Williams was inti- mate with Mrs. Langley, for some time, with Mrs. Langley's consent, and that J. J. B, Truesdale does not think that Aaron Williams should be hung and should be sent to the peni- tentiary for life. - Personally appeared, Samuel Aam- ons, under oath, do say that Aaron Wiltams did work with Langley fo1 several days after it was reported to Langley that Aaron Williams had raped his’ wife, and that he, 8. J. Aamons, does not believe that Mrs Langley was 2 virtuous woman, and that Aaron Willams has been living in adultery with Mra, Langley fo1 some time before this happened. I was tec general report around the neighborhood. Upon consideration of these and similar affidavits in connection witl the petition, the governor felt con. strained to grant the respite unti December 23, 1n order to allow th defendant to make a motion befor the special term of the court of gen eral seasions for Kershaw county fo anew trial, believing that the de fendant was entitled to this upon le gal grounds.

Surely the millennium is coming; aul a few honest white men ‘in South Carolina have come fornard in interest of a defenseless Negro against a whitewoman aud her hus- band whom the Negro “had confi- dence in. The sooner the laws of the south- ern states are properly judicated, amd honest, fearless men have the execu- tion of them, the vetter it will be for all concerned. There must bea change, and there will be one. The time is not far off when all wrongs that have been heaped upon Negroes by southern white men and women will be measured back to them in the same manner it was meted out. ) Those who have lived in open adultery for years with colored wom- en should not kick when they find a colored man living in adultery with other races. Mr. White man, you might as well come in out of tive rain! And take things as they are; do not try tohang the poor Negro for the same crime that you have been committing for years. Mr. Kettle, stop calling the pot “black.” This is just one caseout of fifty thousand which exist in the south- land, Let's call all these things off and protect all good women irrespect- ive of color, and see that all have the same recognition an? courtesy due them from gentlemen, LINCOLN INSTITUTE NOTES.

COLORPHODIA RAMPANT Army Officers Objcct to Wkite Soldier with Negro Wife, ASKED HIM TO RESIGN DEPARTUENT REFUSES TO ENTER INTO MUESTIOS OF WINTE SOLD. Tele MAKE E86 A COLOKED Nowaxn WE so eee Below is an example of what a few ignorant white soldiers of the army want done because a white soldier married a colored woman whom he loved. These same white hypocri.es would destroy the virtue of that col- ored woman, if they could, rather than marry her. Last Saturday in the Boston Her- ald and other papers of the country appeared the following dispatch: “It has been learned unpfficially at War department that Private Jobn 'T. Smith, stationed at Fort Mott, Salem, N.J,, who recently attracted attention by marrying a Negress, will be discharged from the army “for the good of the service.” The order will be issued, it is stated, after elec- tion, sometime between Nov. 15 andzo The department has decided not to enter into the question of right of h soldier to marry a colored woman if he so desires, a8 far asarmy regu- lations are concerned. Smith will be put out of the army simply because jis considered guilty of an action which has brought to him an unenvi- able notoriety and caused trouble among his comrades and the citizens with which he is associated. Some of the War department offic- ials to whom the case was referred seemed not to care to take decisive action. Judge Advocate General Davis sent the papera to the presi- dent because Smith had appealed personally to Mr. Roo evelt. The president returned the natter to Geu. ete without remarks.” . ee ee eee Caldwell, Texas, Nov. 10.—Two Negroes have been elected to office in Burleson county, defeating the Democratic nominees in the 2d_pre- cinct for county commissioner and constable. The district had been regarded as safely Democratic and would have been bad the voters turned out to the polls. Just think of this! Two Negroes elected to office in Texas! Wouldn't it cause anyone to slush? So strong is the influence of Presidont Roose- velt for right thateven in old hell- nidden Texas the Republican party succeeded in electing two Negroes to county offices, Let the Negro stand uptor right.

Especially the Tabernacle are boasting of the fact they have ridded themselves of every black sheep that slipped into their midst. The only thing they have to regrot now is that they have one member who is so silly as to want her endowment willed to some rich white person for whom she has been a slave for the past twenty-three years, This act of the sister the meme bers bitterly oppose, and if she contend, for her will be theirs, ere long she will be weighed in balance and found wanting.

Jordan gave a surprise party to Mrs. Everline Reece, whose head hasbeen frosted with the snow of 89 winters Thursday evening, the toth inst.

Anthony, the Veteran editor of the Leavenworth Times. He wasindzed uae of the greatest men that ever lived in this state. He did more to develop the natural resources and to defend the rights of humanity than any other one inan of hia time. He used much of his valuable time not only to his own advancement, but to the ad- vancement of others aswell. He always defended the rights of the colored people, and they telt that in him they hac a friend. Col, Anthony was truly a power in this country and his services invalu- able to the city and county of Leay- enworth. His paper, the Leaven- worth Times, has always been out- spoken on all questions. He was ofthe Abraham Lincoln and John Brown type of men, and there are but few that come under this class of men left. He willbe missed in Leavenworth not only by his rela- tives, but by everyboby in the sev- eral walks of Ife. We hope his sop, Mayor Dan Anthony, jr., will take up the fight where his father left off, The funeral ot the late Colonel D. R. Anthony was held from the fam- ily home on North LEsplanade yes- terday afternoon -at 2 o'clock with interment in Mount Muncie ceme- tery. Short services were held at the home by Rev. W.N. Page of the First Presbyterian church and at the grave by the Grand Army of the Repubiie. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. The casket was draped m the United States flag by his old comrades and ‘the room in which it lay was banked on all sides hy floral designs and boquets. Atthe home proceeding the fun- eral services a large number of citt- zen» who were life-long friends and admirers of the deceased gathered to pay their Iaat respects to the dead. ‘There were persons in all walks of ie come together to take 2 last look mpon one wobse life's work had been finished; who had fought for the flag in which his casket was draped. Many colored citizens who re membered the acts of kindness of the deceased toward their race. passed into the home, viewed the remains and then passed out. Many of these came to Kansas about the time Col. Anthony did: the majority of them remembered that he had through life fought their battles for them and by their attefdance they proved that his efforts in their behalf had not been forgotten. As the casket was borne from the home by the pallbearers there pre- ceded it an aged and bent figure with long flowing hair and wearing an old army overcoat. This man General Hugh Cameron, best known as the hermit of Lawrence, Kan. General Cameron and Colonel An- thony in 1854 walked from the West port Landing, near Kansas City, Mo., to Lawrence, Kan. together. When the party to which they be- longed as about to depart for Law- rence General Cameron remarked to Colonel Anthony: “It is asin to rige behind a beast when he has two legs to walk upon.” With that the two, men, then young, started out intoKansas. They had been friends in the early struggles of Kansas and General Cameron preceded the cas- ket bearing the remains of his de- patted friend, their last appearance together. As the funeral cortege left the family -home and wended its way toward Mount Muncie cemetery th bell on the city hall tolled for the deceased who had thrice been mayor of Leavenworth. When it passed the Soldiers’ home hundreds of vete: rans of the Civil war who were inti mately acquainted with the deceased (ined up along the roadway with A Kansan for Fifty Years.

The Starlight Club gave a ball at M. and O. Hall Thursday evenin,. Rev. A.M. Ward is preparing te entertain the Bishop when he comes to Kansas City neat month. The Convention Hall. the huge public structure of Kansas City, the largest west of the Missis- sippi river. has witnessed many brilliant scenes in its history, horse shows, fairs, concerts, celebrations and events of cer mature; but none have eclipsed in beauty and splendor, effect and enjoyment the grand Annual Entertainment and Eshibitioa Drill given under the auspices of the Cosmopilitan, Gates City, Alaska and Monrovian lodges of Odd Fellows last Friday evening. A large crowd of five hundred Persons braved the cold weather to be present, and were enter- tained in a most elegant style. The great hall was decorated ‘with Japanese lanterns and ambr-las and various colors of bunting arranged in an artis- tic style. The pentlemen were dressed in solid suits of evening Dlack, while the ladies were attired in beautiful gowns—the receut products of the dress- maker's art. | Upon entering the hall one was immediately ushered into the hands of the receiving ladies and gentlemen, whose politeness jand courtesy were a noticeable feature of introduction. View- ng the great hall from this stand- point, the elaborate decora- tions, the intelligent and refined appearance of the assembled guests, and listtening to the sweet straims of harmeny and music as rendered by the famous Metropolitan Band, whose twen- ty-one members dressed in eve- ning style of conventional black stood up like a phalans from ‘the surrounding seu of faces; one could nct help feeling the ‘tichness of the uccasion and realizing that these progressive Negroes are pushing on and up ‘in theart of high class entertain- ing. Promptly at 10 p, m. with colors flying, plumes fluttering and swords and belts glistening in the light, and the band play- ing a lively march and every | member stepping proudly before the eyes of the assembled people, Topeka Ratriarchs, No. 105 “of Topeka, Capt. Arnett. com- ‘manding and Kansas City Patri- arches, No. 63 of Kansas City, Alay Capt. Thos. Eaton, com- manding. marched out into the rede and for thirty minutes neta the great audience in closest attention by beautiful evolutions ‘and difficult movements in mili- ‘tary art and skill. Kansas City was accredited the best drilled company and received the plau- dits of the audience. Immedi- ately after the drill the band struck up the air of The Star ‘Spangled Banner and in the far remote end of the hall the Ameri- can flag made up of colored electric light globes burst forth into an effulgence of light and beauty, causing the audience to applaud and cheer. Then the whole hall was brilliantly illumi- nated with designs of electricity, after which the lights were all turned off, leaving none but the dull candle lights of the Japanese lanterns aglow, making the scene one enchanting garden of poeti- cal description. The Grand March immediately followed this series of efectrical display and for a number of hours those that danced tripped the light fanastic toe to the: lively strains of popular airs, while those that did not dance enjoyed themselves in the bal- |comies and at the supper tables, which groaned under the weight of delicious edibles prepared by the faithful sisters of the H. of H,, who deserve much honor and praise for the success of this entertainment. The souve- nir programs were neatly de- signed twenty-page advertising folders, the work of energetic Geo. W. K. Love, of Rone-Love Realty Company, of Kansas City, Mo. Among those who shouldered the responsibilities for the suc- cess or failure of this immense undertaking are: the invincible Edwin S. Lewis, Dist. Grand Master of Missouri; ex-Grand Master Eli Harris; Dist. Deputy Grand Master H. R. Edwards, W. E. Randolph, W. R. Patter- son, D. M. Johnson, Frank L, White, D. Queenan, A. E. Estis, Moses Ricketts, Robert Hill and LB. T. Lewis. The Odd Fellows of Kansas City are an up-to-date progressive set of men striving to erect a suitable hall for lodge pur- poses.
