NEGRO OUTLAWS AT WORK
An Armed Gang Threaten a Magistrate
in the Eighth District.

An Armed Gang Threaten a Magistrate
in the Eighth District.
Magistrate sheftall and Constable Sol
onions of the Eighth district had hard
tussle with a gang OF outlaw negroes
about miles west Of the city on sunday
night. The trouble grew out Of an at
tempt to arrest a thieving negro named
Simon Brown, with half a dozen other ne
groes who we're wanted for hog stealing.
Mr.. William R. Terrell, a
large hog owner in the
western part Of the county, few days
ago missed a fine breed animal valued at
about SIS. suspicion pointed to colony
of negroes IN the vicinity as the thieves.
A search warrant was issued and placed
in the hands OF Constable SOlOmOns.
After a search of a few hours 1t was dis
covered that the hog had been butchered
and the meat divided among
number of families. 1t was traced
to the houses Of Simon, Mary and Milly
Brown, Gain" and "Abel" Walker and
"Dick" Jones, and was Identified by
means of marks on the animals head
which had been buried in the lot near
Browns house. Upon being accused OF
the theft all of the parties confessed their
guilt.
Justice Sheftall conducted the search,
and after Brown had confessed the steal
ing stepped up 10 put MN unCeI arrest
As he did so a gang Of between
fifteen and twenty negro men and
women who had cOngregated and were
watching the proceedings rushed between
Brown and the Magistrate. A number OF
them were armed with muskets, others
with clubs and bricks, and threatened to
kill the officer if he laid hands on any of
them. Being surrounded and unable for
a moment to get at his man Brown sue
ceeded in breaking away and started for
the woods. The officer followed in close
pursuit and fired two shots after the fugi-
tive. which brought him to halt.
He was finally secured and taken to the
Magistrates office, where he was con-
fined for the night, and yesterday was
brought TO the city and lodged IN Jail. He
is a big, burly, uglY-visaged fellow, and,
from mis- appearance, would not hesitate
to commit almost any act of violence If
there was a possibility Of escape. War
rants have been issued for the arrest OF
the entire gang who resisted the Magis-
trate, and yesterday morning officers
were started in pursuit. One Of them,
Swapping negro wench, who had been
foremost in the disturbance, was arrested

THE PINES IN THE PARK.
The Old Forest Trees Rapidly Dissp-

IT
pearing.
It is evident that at the rate the large
nine trees are dying in Forsyth Place
IN n few years there will be few if any
Of them remaining. Yesterday one OF
them was cut down, and there are quite
a number of dead trees that will soon
sbore the same fate and be cut up for fire
wood. Ii has been suggested that the
cause Of the decay and death is the clear
ing away OF the pine straw from around
and under the trees. This product OF the
pine, il is said, as il decays, fertlllZes the
l5.-oTnd and gives new life to the tree.
Whether it is so or not the writer is not
Drsnared to say, but the fact that the
Ground around the trees is kept free from
the straw and that the trees are dying IS
Datent TO all who visit the park. Ii there
+ any wav OF preserving these mOnarchs
of the prinevaI forest something should
be done TO save them.

ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
Mr.. ROOs stated to a NEWS reporter
that about half an hour before the alarm
was sounded he left his stable to 60 and
paw bill. leaving the office in charge of
two boys. Everything, he said, was all
right then. There was small hre In the
office stove. He was at his home, which
is a short distance from the stable, when
the alarm was sounded, and went imme-
diatelv there. The fire was then burning,
he said, Olmstead's stable and had not
reached his office. His theory of the ire
is that it originated in Mr.. Ulmer's yard
or one Of the other yards adjoining the
stable. 1t Is generally believed, however,
that it originated from careless smoking
by boys.
AN ACT OF BRAVERY.
One of the most heroic acts during the
fire was the saving OF line of hose from
destruction on Harrison street, and by it
preventing the flames from crossing and
sweeping the entire territory to the south.
When the ire was at its height and
burning ferceSt il was found necessary
to withdraw the line of hose which had

had been driven away from the buildings
by the smoke and the intense heat
from the flames, which were tapping in
sheets across the street. Chief Fernandez.
recognizing the situation and seeing that
il would be impossible to save any Of the
property on the south side OF the street
without the aid of the hose, called fire.
man Eastmead to his assistance, and with
a stranger who was standing near by
rushed into the flames and was lost 20
view. Those who saw the act and knew
the bravery of fremen which in times
of excitement ard danger fire.

were confident that the men would never
return alive. The hose was watched and
hardly a moment elapsed before it began
to move. 1t was evident that the men
were at work. a minute later and the
begrimed faces and burning coats of the
heroic firemen were seen through the
flames. The men were struggling with
the hose, dragging it on their
hands and knees through the
binding smoke and rolling in the
mud and water to keep their coats from
burning from their backs. just as they
reached the edge of the fire, where the
flames were the hottest, one of them fell
with the heavy hose over his shoulder.
The gallant Chief, seizing him by the
shoulders, dragged him out and the line
was saved. Ii was the work OF hardly
moment to turn 1t on the
blazing buildings, and for quarter
of an hour it as kept playing till the
nesses OF the act, but those who saw 1t
