Harris, now residing at Tokio, and widely known as a mis sionary, recently addressed* commu nication to the San Francisco board of education. In which she deplored San Francisco's attitude towards the Japanese In public schools, and crit icized what she termed the "provin cial spirit” of the local officials. She deprecated the attempt to classify the Japanese as "orientals,’’ and ex pressed surprise that the children of any foreign resident should be "ex cluded from the public schools. The board of education has framed a reply, which will be mailed to Mrs. Harris. This reply asserts that tho Japanese have not been “excluded" trom the public schools, “despite the fact that no less a personage than the president of the United States has Instigated a similar assertion In framing a message to congress, and notwithstanding the wholly unfair report made of the school incident by the secretary of commerce and ‘labor, Victor H. Metcalf. Continuing, the reply says: "The fact that the president of the United States basing arguments upon erroneous assumptions, frames against a loyal people* scathing crit icisms regarding a matter which Is purely one of local concern, does not In tbe least deter the people of the Pacific ooa&t, who, after all, are Coutifless the best Judges of their own immediate needs Snd welfare. 'Neither do the misleading deduc tions and recommendations of a pol itician high In authority, when- voiced through a document which plainly sought the light of favor, and not from truth, impress the people of this locality with any sense of doubt as to their rights, as free bom Ameri cana, or as to the Justice of the stand they have taken. “The board of education will not recede from Its position, whether the president of the United States has been led Into error, and now applies emphatic language to the people of this state, or whether ambitious sec retaries distort plain facts and shape documents that may perhaps be for midable in a political sense.” PERFORATED BODY WITH BALLS Had Committed Felonious Assault on White Woman and Confessed Hie Crime, 8tatlng that He Would Have Done It Dead or Alive. Amuapolts, Md., Dec. 21.—.Henry Davis, alias Henry Chambers, a ne gro, who committed a felonious as sault on Mrs. John Reid, of Browns ville, 5 miles from Annapolis, last Friday, and who had confessed his crime, was taken- from the jail Fri day morning and lynched by a mob of about 60 masked men. He was strung up and his body riddled with bullets. The Jail is( situated in Calvert street In tbe western section of the city and Is quite Isolated. Tbe mob had no difficulty'in securing the prisoner. Taking him from his cell, the'y car ried him along the road leading to the scene of his crime. The plans of the lynchers were kept quiet as no one except those who participated in It knew anything about what was Uf take place. Their movements were carefully guarded. In a statement made after the man was taken from the jail. Deputy SherlfT Smallwood, said that about 2 i ’’clock a man appeared outside the , all and rang. He said he had prisoner. Depaty Reuben I. Small wood saw that he had no prisoner and refused to admit him, whereupon he left. Soon afterward a mob of about GO men appeared before the jail with a whipping post and endeavored to batter down- tho door. Unsuc cessful with that means, they pro cured a sledge and pick, and manag ed to break a hole through the dooi in which one of them crawled and un locked the door. Then five or six men entered the building and pro ceeded to Ihe warden’s room, where they encountered Warden Taylor, Deputies Smallwood and James C. Crouse, and Night Watchman Mar- cellus. At the point of a pistol the warden surrendered the keys. In a few moments more Davis was se cured and carried out bodily. He made no resistance. His appear ance outside the Jail was greeted with yells. He was kicked and beaten by members of the lynching party and In few minutes was taken to Brickyard Hill on the Annapolis, Baltimore and Washington railroad line. Here Davis was closely questioned and again admitted that he had as saulted- his victim, and repeated that he would have done It living or dead. As he made this assertion, those who heard him raised a cry, a rope was quickly knotted and the nooso slipped over his head. By this time Davis was nearly un conscious from fright and tbe blows which bed been rained upon him. While In this condition Davis was hoisted up to the limb of a tree. Killed by a Train.
