TH1 R1c4NT REGISTRATIONS.

A party OF citizens from Columbia
brought to this, place, Hast Saturday, q
negro woman named Jane Woods, who
8 seys she.was picking cotton iR the field
= near where the aaeassins Of Afesssrs,,
Crawford and Harris executed thei.
/ horrible deed. Jane, before the Inquest,
denied seeding. or knowing any. of the
PARTIES, but It seems she confesses to
having made this statement because OF
fear, ,sand fs, willing, IT, protected, to
: identify one or two of the men engaged
In the murder. She states that the mon
{ hitched their horses OFF tho road, and
aftef doing the killing passed along an
old road near where she lay concealed.
She had concealed herself fearing she
would be killed. Jane was carried to
Delta from here: While on the cars, a
young man named Win. Adams came
aboard at Rayvilie, on his way to Vicks-
j hang to have some machinery repaired!
Jane Woods seeing Mr.. Adams, declar-.
ed that he was one OF the party who
committed the murders: Adams was
arrested by Sheriff Dinkgrave, who
was on tho train, and carried to Delta
for preliminary trial, which was stin
pending on Wednesday,. ,.,,.s..,.,t..I,
u. Mr.. Adams friends are sanguine of
his acquittal. He Is a young man of
considerable energy, and has Impressed

+. In reference to the assassination of
Mfr. Archibald, we learn that one Of the
supposed assassins, Lewis Robinson,
was taken by Messrs. STAFFORD; and
Jones In u cypress brake near Waverly
Station on Tuesday, and brought to
RayvilIe on Wednesday and lodged in
Jail, The pursuit has been going on
since the ard.i Floyd, the other man
charged, has not, that we. have heard,
heen captured, but It is said his camp Is
invested, and again, that he has beon
killed. What the! evidence of guilt of
these two men is, we do not know, but
1t Is doubtless pretty strong, when the
Beacon positively states that they are
the assassins, :, and when they were
fleeing the country. 80 MN. .s....i.... j..

JUDGE CRAWFORD AND DISTRIC]
t.--.- e. ATTORNEY HARRIS.

furnishes the following particulars in
the life OF the late Judge Crawford:
He was native of Kentucky, and
came to Louisiana as early as 1910 or Al,
he first located at Harrisonburg, In Cat
ahoula parish. where he fitted himself
for aC1mittance to the Louisiana bar,
and was admitted at the session OF the
Supreme Court at Alexandria, In the
fall of 1912. He then removed to and
settled Mt Columbia, where he remained
to the time of his death. .. 49,.
He was man of very superior INTEL
lect. firm and unyielding in his princi-
pies, and attained high degree Of emil
nence In his profession. AS criminal
lawyer he had few equals and scarcely
q superior in the State.
In reference to Mr.. Harris we get tho
following from tho Courier Journal:
General Harris, SO ruthlessly murder
ed in Louisiana day before yesterday
was brother, Of Rev. George G. Harris,
Of st. Mary's Protestant Episcopal
Church, OF this city. Tho deceased
gentleman was Il native of this State,
and graduate from the Oxford Uniyer-
fsity in 1852, entering Immediately upon
the practice Of his profession, in which
he very soon reached high position.
Although Democrat in politics, he
was at the time of his death State dis
trict attorney, n place to which he had
been elected by Il large vote OF his dis
trfcts the people of which gave him
their confidence to an unusual degree.
To his brother we extend our sincere
coincidence upon bereavement that
will be felt by the community where
his murdered brother resided only less
than by his immediate family.
