SERIOUS RACE RIOT
Several Persons Killed and Manj

Entering Cetrh for White* on u
Excursion Train t· Bean·
mont from Lake Charles.
Beaumont. Tex., Mavy 12.—A race
riot occurred on an excursion train re
turning to Beaumont Sunday night
from Lake Charles In which several
persons were killed and many wound
ed The train reached this city at li
o'clock Sunday night, and contained
more than 700 people, both white and
colored, who were fairly frightened
to death. The trouble was between
white and colored men. and as near
as can be learned, began by the n<»
groes crowding into a coach occupied
by white people The trouble was ol
such a ritous nature that It is Impos
sible to get any of the facts.
The brakeman says the trouble real
ly began in Hie morning going down
when the white boys and men gather
ed rocks in the train and began throw
lng «ι the negroes at the various sta
tlons. When the train started from
Lake Charles at 7:30 Sunday night It
was readily seen that trouble was on
hand, and it culminated when the ne
groes, being forced out of their own
car. began crowding into the white
— nnnL.'n "n ·· ! η (Ύ f/V·» OAflfp Vn
one knows how the fight started, but
some on fired, and from that time It
was a battle of bullets. The majority
of the negroes were in the small smok
lng compartment and the whites id
the other portion of the car.
The brakeman is unable to give any
Idea of the number killed. The fight
occurred while the Train was in full
speed and he says that a large number
jumped off the train as it sped along
while several who were shot were
thrown off One negro was killed and
thrown off the train at West Lake
and this seems to be the only fart as
to results. He «ays, however, that he
knows of four white people, white men
who live In Orange were shot, but
when taken off there all were alive
The brakeman says he has no doubt
but there are more negroes men aud
women, scattered all along the rail
road between Lake Charles and Or
ange Some of them were shot before
they jumped or were thrown off and
many others may be killed or maimed.
The telegraph operator at Sulphur,
the first station this side of West
Lake, reports that some fifteen or
twenty negro men and women strag
glers arrived there. He reports that
they are so frightened as to be unable
to give a definite report of the trou
ble. This operator says one negro
named Solomon Botley was killed at
West Lake and three negro women
and five negro men wounded.
The Vinton operatod says that there
were three negro men killed and three
whites wounded.
The car In which the riot occurred
is well marked with bullet holes aud
bears other evidence of the deadly
conflict.

METHODIST CONFERENCE.

th·
Dallas. May 12.—In accordance wltÎJ
a resolution passed by the general con
ference of the Methodlet Episcopal
Church, South, on Saturday, today was
observed as a day of humility—of fast
ing and prayer. The members of the
church, as well as the delegates to the
conference, obeyed the resolution so
far as they were able to.
Divine guidance was Invoked on the
deliberations of the representatives of
the church In their discussion of all
questions which may come before the
conference, especially upon the war
claim.
The resolution, however, did not af
fect the general conference in any way
so far as the regular proceedings were
c'-ncerned. At 9 o'clock the confer
ence met as usual and transacted bus
iness as came before It for considéra
tion.
Tonight at 8 o'clock tb» fraternal
messenger of the Methodist Episcopal
church, north, will be formally receiv
ed. Tbe ceremonies will take place
at the auditorium at the fair grounds,
where the regular daily sessions of
the general conference are being bet*.
These proceedings are of more than
ordinary moment, as the northern
branch of the church embraces by far
the larger body of Methodist* Through
their messengers, Kev. D. W. liiiptinf
ton, D. D.. of Lincoln, Neb.. aniiLietT
tenant Governor John L. Uates of
Boston, Mass. they send greetings to
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
In church circles great Importance
la attached to the mes*#*»* which will
be read by these messengers on be
half of the church, and the entire con
ference is expprtpi »r> he on hand.
Sunday the various Protea'ant pul
pits were filled hy delegates to the con
ference.

WHAT YOU DO, DO IT WELL
This Is Important 1er Health
Building in Nay.
THOUSANDS OF CUBES MADE BY
Paine's Celery
Compound
Should Convince You of Its
Value
"What voti do, do it well," is the
golden rule of business life. This
rule and far reaching command can
be profitably observed In many other
conditions of life. In sickness and
suffering it is all important that
"what you do" to banish disease
and restore lost health, should be
well done. While prudence and
common sense will, in nearly every
instance, direct you aright, the ex
perience of your friends and neigh
bors and the thousands rescued from
sickness and suffering, will point
directly to l'aine'· Celery Compound
as the infallible health giver
People who think they wiJl get rid
of troubles such as rheumatism,
neuralgia, dys|>eps!a, and nervous
disorders by medicines which have
not yet passed the experimental
stage, wAl be sadly disappointed
and find their sufftrlnge increased,
To (ret rid of rheumatism, neu
ralgia, dyspepsia and nervous com
plaints, it is wisdom to use Paine's
Celery Compound, a medicine that
proceeds at once to make the appe
tite normal, sleep natural and re
freshing, the nerves strong, as a
foundation for building up health
and vigor.
If sick people in May look for a
true nerve strengthener. an honest
blood purifier, a reliable diuretic,
that will restore strength, renew
vitality, regulate the kidneys, liver
and bowels, they should at once
rnak· use of Paine's Cejerv Com
pound, and note the speedy «nil
pleasing results that flow from its
use.
