ARE COMING
MISSISSIPPI NEGROES HAVE
ENOUGH OF ILLINOIS.
i
Have Made Up Their Minde That This
la the Beet Place For Them—Sev
eral 8ay They Had Not Slept for
Nearly a Week.
Jackson, August 20.—The south
bound Illinois Central train brought, to
Jackson* this morning a colony of a
dozen negroes, fleeing from Springfield
and other points In Illinois, where hos
tilities .toward the race have recently
been manifested. ■
A majority of the negroes are for
mer Mississipplans, who have been liv
ing In Illinois for several years and all
expressed themselves as genuinely
glad to be on Mississippi soil once
more, and with their minds fully made
up not to return to the Sucker state.
Some of the refugees are rather
properous looking, but declared that
they had not slept for several nights,
being In continual terror of the mad
dened mobs.
It was reported in the press dis
patches a day or two since that the
brother of the negro whose cvlme
caused the troubles at Springfield was
headed for Mississippi, but If he has
reached this state, nothing is known
ot It.
Why do you sit with Mrs. Wiggins in
the cabbage patch and never have your
sewer connected up and your plumbing
done. Call Cumb phone 251 and we
will attend to your troubles.
