Almost daily wo read of some color-

mob. Now il seems fooliib, indeed,
for colored men. with all the light of
the past before them, will commit a
crime that i^^^oople feel is worse than
murder,and one from which there is no
escape. Rape means death, and the
fool who accomplishes it. never ex
pects nothing else.
Another Had Case.
On lost Monday afternoon the sad
news reached this city tliat Mrs.
liuvenia llaglcr was dead. She died
in Columbia S. C. on Monday at 10
minutes post ono, after several weeks
suffering. She was a native of
CharlcstouS. C. and the wife of Mr.
William H. llaglcr of this city. She

woman. She wo.* loved *by all who
knew her, a.s was evidenced by the
great crowd.* that met the corpse at the
depot. She was an affectionate and
datiful wife, a consistent Christian,
and from obUdhood a member of the
Methodist chnrcb.
The corpse arrived hero Tuesday
evening and rested in Clinten Chapel
till Wednesday morning and was from
tbenco buried in Pinewood comotery.
The husband and family have the

A Bad Cose.
The young white man i. I-%reco,
BOW in jail for burglarizing Mr.^. J.
Yates' house, b a son of Judg* Green
of Sonth'Carolina. He b flmrgod
a capital erime. '‘ne for whioh
several mm have been hanged in
Meoklenburg county. Hb ease .-is -a
bad one. One that excites gineb
interest for several reasons. The
sentiment of this comionnity-b’de-
eidedly strong against this crime, and
if thb young man is courieted it will
be proven whether or not white men
snd eolorud wen are punished alike
for the same crime.
Aceiiis that this young man comes
from one of the best families of South
Carolina. That is-bnd on society and
tho good people of South Carolina as
well as tho circle into which ho enter
ed here in our city. He was given to
drinking and card playing—two very
bad habits. %
A wateb stolen from Mr Vatos^

was pa-wned by the prisoner to a

make up a bad ease IIo will be
tried at the October court. ^
