Carter Is Found After Eluding Justice
Seven Year*.
News hsa just reached the city thst
Anthony Carter (colored) the slayer of
Mr. James Dong, near Johnson. 8. C..
| has been spotted. Heven years ago Mr.
Ismg ordered Carter off of hi* plac*
for loafing. This angered Carter, and.
after a few words had psssed, he shot
lying dead, then escaping. Since that
time he has several limes been nearly
In the clutches of the lsw.
Once the house he was in was sur
rounded; a woman In the houae faint
ed. and Carter made his escape In her
clothe* by getting his sweetheart to
take him out as her mother faloted.
He has roamed up and down the Sa
vannah rlvsr. hiding In swamps, or
rrosslnr the river when posses were
after him.
When the tenth regiment wa* organ
ised. Carter enlisted in the Spartanburg
company under Captain Henning- A
negro detective spotted him and re
ported the case to Long's relatives.
Before arrangements could be made
for hi* arrest while the tenth wag sit
uated here the regiment moved to Lex
ington.
The authorities In Lexington w re
corresponded with and have notified
the Carolina authorities to send on the
warrant. The proper paper* are being
secured, and it is thought that Carter
will be sent out In the near future.
Many of the Augusta negroes knew
Carter, and say he did not keep bis
name a secret. It is a wonder that he
has eluded justice so far,

of these forilltle* and conveniences 1*
constant. On many Western roads seats
In chair ears, corresponding with par
lor car* on Eastern lines, are furnished
gratuitously. The sleeping car service
Is more general and better in the Uni
ted States than In any other country,
and light and heat, two essential* of
up-to-date railroad travel, are better
furnished here than in any other coun
try.
The freight charges, too, estimate I
on the basis of csrylng a ton of
freight a mile, are lower here than in
other countries, in England the aver
age rate is 2 cents. In Belgium It is
1,(10, in France 1.56 and In Germany 1.23
cents. In the United States It Is 0.9 V
cent, or less than one cent a mile per
ton for freight moved, taking the whole
country through. If the average of
American freight rates was as high a*
it is In Germany, the people of lltl*
country would have paid the railways
last year about $350,000,000 more (ban
they did. If the rates had been as high
ns they are in England, the people of
thl* country would have paid the rail
way* about $850,000,000 more than they
did. An Illustration of the excellence
of the service on American railroads is
furnished by the fact that, although the
collections from freight are larger in
Europe than they are tn the United
States, and the number of passengers
carried is materially greater than in
tills country, the expense of mainte
nance of American railroads Is $100,000,-
000 more In a year than for those oper
ated in Europe. And the American,
railroad system Is improving all the
time, the freight and passenger rates
are being reduced, and the character
of theserviee given-luxurious passen
ger travel and quick freight—is better

vishes finally retreated, they left thou
; sands of their dead piled up. to be
! trampled upon by the steadily ad
vancing British. But Ihe advance was
hotly contested. Toward OttiJmilX
1 the battle raged furlosilly. A* the tide
of fighting ebbed and flowed across the
British front, the enemy massed on the
right for a final desperate charge on
the flank. The sirdar swung his stray
Into position and received tli.m with
a polnthlank hall of bullet* that tut
them up In ghastly furrows and bowled
them over among the rocks like struck
rabbits. The khullfa retreated within

the ride back by the same crimson
channel of death, rea ls like an epic—
and seems to have been as useless as
the charge of the Light Brigade at
Balaklava.
There is little more to tell. The
khalifa fled, an outlaw, toward Kordo
fun, tarveling Incognito, like the Prince
of Bagdad, but accompanied by a
handful of chiefs and fighting men to
guard his worthless life through a land
made desolate by his own hand, and
the British entered the big fallen city.
The new Khartoum was in possession
of the English, and the sirdar. Gen. Sir
Herbert Kitchener (who will soon have
an alphabet attached to his name)
hoisted flags over the palace, where
they flutter today far above a maze of
narrow streets and a multitude of
adobe houses. The somber standard
of Khalifa Abdullah trails In the dust.
It Is now hut a trophy of war. Tn

Cling to Their Uniforms.
Charleston. 8. C. Oct. !*. - The ne
groes who went from Charleston to
Santiago to clean sewers at the rate of
one dollar per day are still wearing
1 their soldier uniforms, much to the
disgust of some of the people of the
j city.
Had the nrgroea been In service no
i thing would have been raid about tbclr
!clothing, but they were nothing more
'or !«•*« than ordinary day laborer*, and
j they had no right lo uppfaprlate the
' uniform of the volunteer*. When the
men got hack to Charleston they ex
pected lo hare a high old time on the
strength of the trip, but the prompt
action of the police checked the desire
for anything like a demonstration.
The negroes were told that all vagrants
looked alike, regard lee* of blue
clot hex, and the big list of police con
victions frightened them into the ev
ery day way of living. Much com
ment l* heard about the black troop
er*. They are not soldiers, however,
and they never have been. They went
off to work for the government and
before getting hack to Charleston they
picked up some old uniforms, which
they continued to wear. The public
would like to know if there is any way
by which the would-be volunteers can
i be called down.
