BORED WITH BULLETS.
An Officer in Austin, Tex, Shot and
Killed By Drunken Scion Of
Good Family.
Houston Tex special

For several days past Mr.. Kyle Terry, q
handsome man, about 26 years old, whose
home is near Richmond, in Fort Bend
County, has been visiting friends in this
city. He has been indulging in liquor
pretty freely, ard last night became some
what intoxicated. Officer williams arrested
Terry against the latter's protest, taking him
to the station, but was released on the
pledge that he would appear before the
Mayor and answer to the charge of being
disorderly. This morning he came
upon Officer Williams, who was
going toward the Cont House. The
very sight of Williams seemed to
drive Terry crazy. He sprang toward the
officer, uttering terrible oath. Williams
saw he was confronting man crazed with
drink, and jumped behind passing colored
man. When the negro saw Terry advancing,
pistol in hand, he became frantic and tried
to run, but Williams chung to his back with
deadly tenacity. The colored man from
sheer fright it is thought, tainted, and with
Williams still clingiug to him they rolled
off the sidewalk into the gutter. Terry fol-
lowed, becoming apparently more excited
at Williams effort to escape. Bending over
the PROSTATE negro Terry emptied his self
cooking six shooter into the PROSTATE form
of his victim. He literally pumped lead
into Williams without moving his arm.
Each ball entered the body of the unfortu-
nate man. The effects were noted by peo-
Pile who witnessed the affair from dis
lance, who say the body seemed to jump a
few inches from the ground each time a
bullet penetrated it. The fifth ball passed
through the heart, and Williams rolled over
dead, one hand still grasping the negro,
who lay in an almost comatose condition,
an unwilling witness to the awful crime.
Terry was Immediately arrested without re-
sstanee and taken to Jail. Intense excite
ment has prevailed here all day, and an
extra guard has been placed inside the Jail
to prevent possible lynching. Officer Will
liams was general favorite on the force,
and leaves wife and three children. The
Terrys have been for three generations
among the most honorable citizens of the
south. The prisoner is son of General
Frank Terry, of Confederate renown. Ter
rvs Rangers were far-famed in war days.
He comes from fighting family, being a
nephew of Judge A. w. Terry, of Cali
fornia, the slayer Of. Senator Broderick.
Other members of the family have achieved
distinction in legislative halls and on tho
bench of Texas.

THE Baltimore Manufacturers
Record publishes a review of the in
dustrial growth of the South and the
progress made in the development OF
the manufacturing and mining inter-
ests of that section during 1885. A
noticeable feature is the wide diversity
of new enterprises, which include al
most every industry known in the
coustry. The amount of capital, in
GLIDING capital stock of incorporated
companies organized during the year
and charging and rebuilding those
destroyed by fire, aggregates $66, S12,
600, divided among the fourteen South
ern States as follows: Alabama, ST.
S41, 900; Arkansas, 81, 100000 Florida,
100000; Georgia, $1,000, 100; Ken
lucky, $1S, $50, 900; Louisiana, S2,11s,-
500; Maryland, So, 66S, 500; Mississippi,
$761, 800; North Carolina, SO, $50, 600;
South Carolina, $S56,OOO; Tennessee,
80, 500, 900; Texas, 50, 232, 900; yirgi MIA,
s3,314, 900; West Virginia, So, O56, 900.
Total, $50, $4,000. Summing up some
statistics of the South's progress since
1880, the Record shows that since then
10,400 miles have been added to the
South's railroad mileage, the building
of which, added to the investments in
old roads and their improvements,
foot up $5l, 100000, the actual cost of
the railroads of the South and their
equipment, according to statistics, be-
ing over 81, $50, 900, 900, against 1919,
500, 900 in 1880. The assessed value of
property in the South has increased
nearly $1,000, 900, 900 since 1879.

Remarkable Effects of "a Rattlesnake Bite.
Jasper lGa.) telegram.
The condition of Mr.. Sylvester Sans, a
well-known citizen of this county, excites
considerable interest. Two years ago Mr..
Sans, while walking on his farm, was Bit
ten by rattlesnake. He Immediately re-
sorted to the native remedy in such cases,
whisky, of which he took copious draughts.
Nothing more was thought of the matter
until six months ago, when Sans be-
trayed symptoms of st. Vitus dance. He
is never still, not even in his sleep, twitch-
ing his muscles and moving necessarily.
Later he has developed violent symptoms,
so much so that he beat his wife and family
and whoever comes within reach: He now
acts like man with we'll defined case of
rabies, only instead of barking he makes a
rafting sound. He has been taken TO the
Canton Jail, where strong guard can be
kept over him until the result of his case
can be reached.

A SON of the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher has taken to opium. He took
at one time 3,0l2 pounds of prepared
opium, quantity which is considered
by experts pretty large dose. Young
Beecher has felt no bad effects from
this opium habit, and will, in fact, make
$4,000 by it. The opium he took was
seized by him on Kaasan Bay, and was
valued at $4,000. The $25, 900 is Col
lector Beecher's share of the catch.

UNITED STATES JUSTICES BRADLEY,
Gray, and Miller, during the cold
spell and since, donned black skull
caps. Justice Bradley, who has fine
head of hair, but is sensitive to colds,
wears a close-fitting cap of fine black
silk. Justice Gray could not find one
to fit his big head, SO he wears one that
just covers the top of his Uranium.
Justice Miller is economical, and dons
a homemade affair of black velvet. 1t
is too large and flaps over his ears.

man who reads it gets for three cents
or less the work of the best writers of

given away. A good newspaper ought

The health of ex-President Arthur
has caused some anxiety during the
last few weeks. He has been under

his diet has been restricted to the

milk and pepsin. He has suffered
much from insomnia and the attendant
nervous excitement and depression.
