BLACKS FILL JAIL aftemilo NIGHT Police Court .Overflows With Darkies Who Celebrate Jack Johnson's Victory. Judge Broyles’ court room overflow ed todav with denizens of Darktown who had celebrated Independence Day with a to° liberal absorption of pa triotism and beer. On the floor below the long rows of cells bulged with still . umbering victims of blind tiger corn, and in Grady hospital, around the cor ner doctors and nurses were busy put jnz fresh bandages on long and short .lashes left i>y the deft use of raaors. There was a bullet wound or two to probed. too. but the hospital wasn’t half as busy as the police station. Purely, Darktown had enjoyed its Fourth. _ . _ When the news reached Decatur « tr eet that one Arthur Johnson, col ored. had put the Indian sign on a huskv Caucasian named Flynn, it was a « though some philanthropist had an nounced that sixteen kegs of free beer had been tapped and were running to naste Darktown started in to drink the health of its champion, and it . rank freely and often as the evening processed By 9 o’clock Decatur street „-, c co full Os negroes as a picnic in watermelon time. It looked like trou ble. and it was. "Landed on” Detective. Detective B A. Perry found that out when be tried to arrest a negro corn vendor near the Vendome hotel, a ne .r; resort in Ivy street, just off De carur in the heart of Darktowfl. Some bod v ’ landed on the back of Perrys head with a pair of brass “knucks or a bil’v- ThPn policeman Alewine arrested a bad man, who put up a fight. A white man telephoned to head ouarters. and the mounted squad, held i n re serve for trouble, dashed up the street, with Chief Beavers in the lead. In three minutes it looked like Sun day” remarked a bystander. "Them darkies went every way at once, except up TTiere wasn’t no more trouble af ter that, except scattered. No, I don t think more’n a dozen got run over, to hurt” But though the charge of the mounted squad broke up the Decatur street disturbance there was scattered trouble all through the night. Slashed Wife and Baby. Will Thomas, a negro who lives at 200 Orme street, went home from the celebration with a razor in his hand, and when he met his wife at the dool with her baby in her arms he carved both of them so freely that they were sent to the hospital. Thomas is locked up with a charge of assault to commit murder registered against him. One or two negroes were shot in general free for-all mix-ups in the suburbs, and the doctors had many callers who walked In to have a head bandaged or a out sewed up. But the Grady physicians believe none will die. The Fourth was singularly lucky so far as fireworks were concerned. There wasn't a case of flreworks injury at Grady, nor a Roman candle blaze on the fire department record. The night ambulance calls at Grady were only twelve, against 400 on the Fourth a year ago But what the celebration lacked in Injuries, it made up tn dis order, for Recorder Broyles found 105 cases on his police docket when he opened court. It was far in thd day when he had sent up the last offender for thirty days in the stockade, and the afternoon session promised to be equally as long.
