NEGRO BURGLAR SHOT.
The Police Make Raid ON n Burglars
Den and MORALLY Wound the
Leader OF the Gang.

Last night, at half-past nine o'clock, De-
teCtives M'Cune and Pride, Patrolman Rogers,
and others surrounded a three-story frame
tenement, known as Rat Row, situated In
the hollow back of 358 Beale street, and be-
tween that and Un'on street. The police
were IN search of a noted burglar, Jim or
Farris Thorne. who, ON the night OF the sec
ond, burglarized the residence of Mrs. Sneed,
on East Court street, and carried Oft among
other things a watch belonging to Miss Ire
zevant. The watch was sold by Thorne for
ten dollars, and yesterday 1t was recovered
by the detectives, and this put them on the
trail of the burglar. Yesterday morn
ner, a negro named Wilson, alias
Tomkips, who had assisted Thorne in many
burglaries committed on Court and Madison
streets, as well as In other portions of the
city. On surrounding Thorne's den, last
night, the police attempted to enter the door,
but were resisted by a negro woman.
Thorne, who was upstairs, hearing the
noise, rushed to the rear and leaped from
the third story window, a distance OF nearly
thirty feet. Patrolman Rogers, who was
stationed In the rear, ordered him to halt, but
the negro ran, when he was at once fired
upon FIVE times by Officer Rogers. The negro
kept on running, and managed to escape In
the darkness. Search was at once made,
and in few minutes some colored
people came running In, stating tnat
a wounded man was lying on the sidewalk on
Union street, near the Charleston railroad.
On repairing to the spot Thorne was found
mortally wounded, one ball having struck
him in the lower portion of the back, below
the hip and near the spine, and passing
through the intestines lodged against the
skin in front above the groin. The negro
was sent to the hospital, but it was expected
that he would de before morning. Thorne
was an escaped convict, and had committed
numerous burgIaries throughout the city.
His partner, Wilson, who was arrested yes
terday morning, some four years ago was
sent to the penitentlary for ten years on the
charge of robbing Roescher's jet jewelry
store on Main street, but he soon managed to
escape from the coal mines. Both men are
desperate characters, and the police have been
on their track for some time. They are the
leaders of a gang of negro burglars in the
city. and their capture will have a most bene-
fcal effect upon society.

Relic Of the Memphis Gunboat Fight.

In June, 1852, the gunboat fight in front
of Memphis took place. When the Federal
and Confederate gunboats commenced fight
ing, solid shot or shell from Federal gun
boat passed screaming over the city and
buried itself in the yard of the Charleston
railroad depot, near the spring, which is
about half a mile from the river. The en-
ployes of the Charleston railroad shops made
several attempts at the time to discover the
missile, but failed. Yesterday, in cutting a
di CHI to drain the spring, the missile was
discovered some four feet beneath the surface
of the ground. 1t was sent to the APPEAL
office last evening. 1t Is a conical, sharp
pointed, solid shot, with oval base, and
weighs about twelve pounds. On the base
was stamped the following: "Hotchkiss pa
tent, October 9, 1855. May IA, 1861" 1t
looks somewhat rusty, but even yet it
would do good service if properly fred from
a gun-say, across the Rio Grande at Next

Horrors Of HYdrOphObia.

Maj. VIM. II. Dobb, prominent citi-
zen of New Castle, died from hydropho-
bia this morning. His suiferings were
intense. He was taken suddenly i'll ON
Saturday, and, although everything was
done to save him, all efforts were I'M
awaiting. Maj. Dobb was bitten by his
own dog, Newfoundland, about weeks
old. The dog was lying before the
door, and, in going in, the Major
stopped to caress the animal. 1t did
not take kindly to the petting, however
and finally snapped at Maj. Dobbs'
hand; one finger of the right hand was
bitten. The Major Immediately sucked
the wound until it ceased bleeding, and
as the wound healed in day or two, he
did not fear any serious results. Sub
sequently, the dog showed symptoms of
rabies, and was shot. The week passed
by, and the incident was hardly thought
of, especially as the Major had ceased
taking elscampe and milk, considering
that he was out of danger.
On Saturday morning he went to the
hydrant and drew glass of water
When he placed the goblet to his lips,
however, he found it impossible TO force
a drop down his throat. He threw the
water away, and went in to breakfast; a
cup of coffee was placed by his plate
and he attempted to drink it, but in
vain. 1T has come at last" he said,
and arose from the table. A physician
was sent for. and on his arrival found
the Major calm and composed, but firm
~ believing there was no help for him.
He drank little beer during the day.
Yesterday morning he grew worse.
and any unexpected noise would cause
a cold tremor to run over him. BY noon
he grew delirious, and his commissions
increased, and they grew stronger and
stronger, and several men were brought
into his room to hold him. Once he
broke away from them and tried to
Jump from the window but was re-
strained before he could leap out. He
frequently tried to drink in his more
rational moments, and his efforts to
force liquid down his throat are des-
cribed as terrible His eyes would seem
to burst from their sockets, and his
strong frame shivered in every part.
During the night, Maj. Dobbs suffered
most indescribable agonies, and at 2 As

sion, death came to his relief

Why Gen. Grant is HOnOred.

/ must here remark that my ignor-
ance III regard to the European ovations
so generously and properly given Gen.
Grant has induced me to believe that
these ovations were TO be participated in,
indirectly even, by the United States of
America as regards to an ex-President
Not bit of it. Indeed, the friends of
the General here ignore the United
States in this association altogether No
ovations, no honors from crowned and
uncrowned dignitaries, go to We, good
people of America. It's all mistake to
think so. The international favoring
and fiavoring is all mythical. 1t is en-
tirely, solely, and singly personal and
to Gen. Grant, "the Wellington of
America" that these ovations are given,
and to him as soldier, and not as an
ex-President or a future one. The logic
of this is incontrovertible. L am told
that when the Prince of Wales addressed
Gen. Grant, he said Il welcome you
to England, General, as the second
the Observation-Disclosures" That was
a pretty speech for the gallant Prince
to make, and he can put pretty phrases
into the right place now and then. The
boy King of Spain the other day was
even more gushing. He said: Gen
eral and savior of your country, Spain
is proud to greet you on her soil, for
Spain is the country of warriors, and
you are the greatest of our age!" Good
for the boy King There is grace
about the Spanish language that even
makes truth in simple sentences pale
beside the very eloquence of fancy.
Mucho palarera is peculiarly of the
Spaniards. Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer.
