LAID OUT.
A Negro Who Resisted a Deputy Sheriff
In DeSOtO County, Mississippi.

Last year a negro named helms.
living near Horn Lake depot, executed
a mortgage on his horse to Col. G.. L.
BLY,, of hat neighborhood, for supplies
advanced. He failed to make pay
ment, and day before : yesterday
Deputy Sheriff Kline Armisted went
to replevin the horse. The negro
made no objection, but asked permits
sion to lead the horse to the house
and take off the gears. To this Mr..
Armisted consented. When once
there the negro ran in the house and
came out Immediately with a double
barrelled shotgun and told Armisted
he could not take the horse. Having
nothing but a little pistol about him
the deputy wisely withdrew to gather
achievements.
In a few hours Atmisted carried
back with him two of his brothers.
This time the negro drew a pistol on
him, but Armisted got in the first
shot from a shotgun. Nelms fell,
but raised up and fred at the party.
Armisted then fred the other barrel
of his gun at the desperate but pros
trate negro, and that was the end of it.
The killing was unavoidable under the
circumstances, as was so decided by a
%coroner's jury.

Cotton advanced in this market al
noon to-day One-eighth of a cent on
all grades, The same advance was
reported in New York by the noon
dispatch. The markets are every

staple is extremely healthy.
The Immaculates, a society of col
ored citizens, paraded Main street
shortly after noon in full uniform, with
banners flying and music in the van.
They marched out to Estiyal Park,
where a number Of sisters Joined
them, and a picnic is programmed.
A half dozen street cars full of
children passed up Main street late
yesterday afternoon. The young folks
were going home from a picnic, and
they chartered like a flock of English
sparrows, and we're decidedly more
noisy. The picnicers had evidently
enjoyed themselves, and we're in glee-
full temper.
Elsewhere will be seen the card of
the new firm Of Flippin l. Flippin,
which is composed Of John R. and
VIM. S. Flippin. This makes a strong
firm and one that will command a large
practice. Judge Flippin, who was
one OF the ablest criminal judges ever
on the bench, and was twice elected
mayor of Memphis, is too widely and
favorably known to require any intro
duction. He is a successful business
man and a fine lawyer. Mr.. William
S. Flippin has practiced law in this
and other States for many years, and
for several years past has been in
Memphis, where he stands high at the
bar. We take pleasure in recon-
mending this firm.

THE MEMPHIS CLUB.
Entertainment In Honor of the l.. 0. B. B.
IA Brilliant Event.

The most elegant club rooms in the
South are those of the Memphis Club,
on the corner Of Second and Adams
streets. All the accessories Of modern
club life have been fitted up with ex-
quisite taste, regardless of cost. The
principal feature is a gem Of a little
theater, the auditorium of which will
comfortably seat about one thousand
persons. Last night an elegant crowd
%thronged the rooms and a brilliant
entertainment was given in honor of
the delegates to the grand lodge of the
Independent Order of B'nai Birth,
or Sons of the Covenant, now in SEES
sion in the city. 1t combined a con-
cert and ball, as well as r~ecitations.
The concert was under the direction
of Prof. Emile Levy. 1t opened with
an overture, Lust Spell, which was
admirably rendered by the orchestra.
MI. A. Refs, who is always correct be-
yond criticism, followed in a bass solo,
Lied des Czaar, in his best style. Mr..
Walkerand Miss H, Bar;nds then gave
a vocal duo, | Live and Love Thee.
Mr.. Walker has a fine, well -trained
voice, and Miss Barinds is one of our
most charming vocalists. She has a
sweet, flexible, sympathetic voice Of
great compass, and it has been care
fully developed and cultivated. Mrs.
Charles Herzog followed with an in
strumental solo, which was given with
artistic skill and expression. Mrs.
Jennie L. Katzenberg, of Little Rock,
then sang Glockengelaute with such
effect hat she was called out for two
more songs. The programme was fire.
quently and heartily applauded, and
each lady performer was the recipient
of beautiful floral tributes.
After this Miss Leah Frank, a gifted
young lady, or girl rather, who is not
unknown to the public, recited "Sha-
mus 0'Brien" in a most effective style.
This happy hit caused a hearty encore
and she then recited "Curfew will not
ring tonight" After several other
songs and Rotations, all of which
were heartily applauded, the assembly
adjourned to the ballroom, which was
brilliantly illuminated, and where the
elegant costumes of the many beauti.
ful and charming ladies' were shown
off to the very best advantage.
Dancing was kept up until sup.
per was announced in the ban.
quet hall. An hour more was de.
voted to the rich and tempting feast
that had been prepared with such rare
skill and taste, and alter that dancing
was resumed and kept up until a late
hour. The affair altogether passed of
delightfully."- to all who were present
and reflects great credit upon our
Jewish fellow-citizens, who know SO
well how to enjoy themselves in q
rational way and to make it agreeable
for their friends.
