ANeELL ACTS VERY UGLY.
He slaps a Special Constable in the
Face, but is Knocked Out.


Eugene D. Angel was arrested yesterday
and with difficulty was lodged in Jail. 1t
appears that he was persuaded to visit
Justice Reynolds Office about O'Clock in
the morning, where the warrant charging
him with assault upon Mr. Judiuns was
read TO him, and he was told that he would
be required to give bond or 20 to jail. He
was very wrathy and wanted some one sent
with him to see if he could not get bonds
man. In the absence of the regular court
officer, Mr.. McNish, an inoffensiye gentle
man advanced somewhat in years, was
deputized as special constable to accompany
Angel.
Angel, by request, was first taken to
the office Of Charlton 81 MacKall who rep
resented him in the habeas corpus case last
summer, and while there Angel became
offensive and ugly toward Mr.. McNish,
refusing to 60 with him and slRpping the
officer in the face. Mr. Charlton interposed,
the law and that he should go along quietly
with the officer.
After leaving the Sorrel building Angel
wanted to go to William Hearn's, his board
ing place on West Broad street, and ither
McNish accompanied him. Once there
Angel refused to go to Jail with
the officer. Mr.. McNish then sent for
SOHSJdD4o ISAAC ~. NdOuau5, W no lCuIQ
Angel asleep The prisoner was hand
cuffed, and Natnans with Wallace Robinson,
a special deputy, started to Jail with him.
On the way to prison. Angel is said by the
officers, to have struck Nathans with the
handouts when Nathans countered on
Angels face with a blow of the fist which
stunned him, and did much u sober him.
The officer said that the language applied
to him by the prisoner provoked him
greater than the blow with the handcufFs,
and that is why he struck back.
Mr.. McNish has not filed any complaint
against Angel for the uncalled for assault
upon him. 1t is likely, though, that An
CELLS conduct will be inquired into by the
city court next Monday.
The Hearns refused to do anything for
the prisoner to help him get bond. Angel
was paid off Wednesday after crossing over
to the city, receiving about S35, and, judg
ing from his condu when he APP lied for
what was due him, be was under the infiu-
ence of liquor then, and to that fact is at
tributed the difficulty he had on the island
with the chief engineer in charge of the
marine railway, where he was EMPLOYED

THE RUSsARs' NEW ARMoRY.
An Interstate Tilt and Bazaar to Help
Along the Enterprise

AlOHk Lue enterprise,
Under resolution of the Georgia Hus-
sars committee was appointed last week
to devise ways and means of increasing
their armory fund, with a view of starting
as soon as practicable the erection Of an
armory, and at last nights meeting that
committee made its report, and its recon-
incubation was adopted by the troop. 1t
was decided to hold an interstate tilt this
spring and bazaar next winter.
The Hussars are greatly in need of an
armory, aud as they nave always responded
ii orally in assisting the other local mill
tary organizations in such movements, it is
most probable that they in turn will re-
ceive earnest support from the militia and
the c,tlz MS & 'nerally in any efforts they
may maketo accomplish this laudable pur-
pos'. The arnory will not only be an addi-
uonal ornament TO the city, but in giving
the corps a home it win increase the eff
