VERY CURIOUS NAME FOR A CURIOUS PEOPLE “Red Bones” of South Carolina Have Like Nowhere Else on the Continent. “Have you ever heard of a class of peo- ple called ‘red bones? ” sald Mr. Lewis Marshall of Charleston, S. C., at the Met- ropolitan. "“They are the most peculiar people in the United States. No one live ing absolutely knows the race from which they sprang or whence the original settlers came. They live very nearly om the boundary line between South Caro- Hna and Georgia, in the northwestern part of the first named State. They are very clannish, mix very little with people not of their race and in a manner are quite thrifty. In slavery times they own= ed slaves, visited several summer resorts of the Southern mountains and in a way put on quite a little style. While I have nothing but supposition to guide me, I am of the opinion that they are descend- ants of the Basques of southern France. They do not lack courage, for a company of them served in Hampton's legion dur- ing the late Civil War and bore them- selves bravely at the first Manassas. Their skin is of a swarthy red, resembling that of the Indian, but at that point all resemblance ceases, except it be that they are very hot of temper. I have ofter won- dered why the ethnologists of this coun- try have not studied these people. Surely a monograph on them would be highly in- teresting.”—Washington Star. -—,”——fi_——_—_—_——% $16 for $20 for $35- et " 48 tor $57 THE CLEARANGE SALE OF CLOTH JACKETS OW IN FULL SWING. xr-.mmmqmmumumpm.nu:mmm Ths reductions are large an markable.
