SHOT AT BY A POLICEMAN.-Somet time
ago Justice Cease issued an order to the police
for the arrest of Clarence Harris, for vagrancy,
and subsequently, officer Lawton attempted to
arrest him at a dance house, but he evaded the
policeman and escaped. About two weeks ago,
Harris attempted to steal a ham from Mr.. Ayres.
but was discovered in the act, dropped his
prey and fed, and since then has been lodging
the officers. On Tuesday evening about 6
o'clock, policeman Gregory found him i'll
Switzer's clothing store, and knowing his des-
perate character, grasped him'by the shoulder
antttoll him that if he attempted to ruiz he.
would shoot him. at the same time drawing his
pistol Harris struck and knocked Mr.. Greg
DRY down, exploded the pistol, aud rdn down
the street. At Brandcbury's corner Il man
named Smith attempted to stop him, but with
ont avail, and as he tu!lled tlie corner of the
alley b. Crowder's restaurant, WAS fired ut by
Gregory, missing him. A croad soon joined
in the pursuit. and-suecee.lrd in capturing him.
Harrs is a powerful negro, and will make an
excellent addition TO The chain gang.
