A Desperate Criminal.

Monday morning IL was learned
that Harry Atwood, (c), a desper-
ate criminal, wanted at Longtown
for an attempt 10 kill and murder,
and who had lately escaped from
the Memphis police. intended to
take the mail train at Como and
leave the State. Deputy-Sherih
w. W. Campbell and Deputy Chan
Gerry Clerk ". w. Smith set out on
the same train 20 capture Atwood.
On arriving at Como, Atwood en-
tered the train and as he saw
Campbell attacked him with a
doubled arrcl shotgun loaded with
buck-shot ; the latter grabbed the
gun and Smith rushed to the res.
cue, beating Atwood over the head
with a pistol. Both officers freely
used their pistols in this way, and,
at last, the reckless negro, stunned
and bleeding, was forced TO sur.
render. Messrs. Campbell and
Smith showed themselves pos.
sessed Of true pluck. for they cap
tured a tough customer. They
served him right, too.

Our little correspondents arc on
another boom this week, running
their column over; several new
ones appear, whom we doubt not
will be greeted by their associates
with a cordial welcome. The STAR
is really proud Of this Young Folks
Column, because no other Missis-
sippi paper has one; then, too, it
is improving to the writers and an
interesting feature to nearly all
Of our readers. We believe the
young folks appreciate their col.
umn too highly to let IL be discon.
tinued for the want Of letters.
There are four letters on file for
