HOMICIDE AT H1LLsDALE.
A Constable Shot Down by a Black
Desperate.

TY-TY, GA, June IA terrible tragedy
occurred at Hillsdale last night about IL
o'clock. James NJ. Hamlen, a constable,
with posse, went to Hillsdals from here
to arrest John Thomas, notorious negro,
and the posse surrounded the house of
Samuel Groom, where Thomas was staying.
When Constable Hamlen and n. E. Wilcox
went in the negro met them in the front
room with a pistol in each hand, and before
they could shoot he fired, shooting
Constable Hamlen in his right eve,
causing death in a few minutes. Mr..
Wilcox was shot through his hat crown,
the ball grazing his head. The negro es-
capped and has not been caught yet, though
a posse is securing the woods for him, and
if he is caught no doubt will make short
work of him. He is the same negro, who,
about year ago, shot Section Master
Strickland near here while at work as a
railroad hand under Mr.. Strickland, and it
was for that offense that Constable Hamlen
went to arrest him last night He had been
gone some time, and yesterday came back
from Florida.

IMPoRTEp PROFESSORS.
The Attorney General Gives an Opin-
ion on the Query

WASHINGTON, June THE Secretary of
the Treasury has asked the ATTORNEY Cen
eral for an opinion as to the legality Of the
importation Of a corps of trained professors
of theology from Europe for the divinity
department Of the Catholic University of
America, located near Washington. 1t is
understood that these professors are to teach
the higher branches OF theology and that
number of young priests are to be introduced
In these branches. The directors of the
university are not satisfied with the opinion
rendered by Gen. Hepburn, solicitor Of the
treasury, on this question. and it was their
request that it be referred to the Attorney
General The opinion of Solicitor Hepburn
was submitted to Secretary Window on
June 2, based upon the letter of NJ F.
Morris, attorney for the newly established
Catholic University of America, located in
this district"
MORRIS LANGUAGE.
In that letter Mr.. Morris uses this
language; Their engagement has not yet
assumed the shape of a contract, but it is
desired it should do so as soon as possible"
Upon this the Attorney General says: "If
Mr.. Morris means to say by the use of the
language just quoted, that the man
agement of the university have not
IN any way assisted or encour-
aged the importation or migration
OF any alien into the United States by
or under contract of any character TO per-
form service of any kind in the United
States, then there is no necessity for this
inquiry, and there is no question to be de-
cided. If, however. such a contract has
been made by the management of the uni
versity, under which 1t is sought to assist
and encourage the importation and migra-
ton for service as teachers and professors
In the university, my opinion is that this is
a clear infraction of the law

wOOLFOLK's JURY.
No Longer Any Doubt That One
VIII be Obtained.

PERRY, GA, June Court convened
at $50 o'clock this morning and exhausted
thirty-six panels of forty-eight jurors eac h
without obtaining a juror. At 11:20
o'clock the sixth juror was obtained, and at
1870 o'clock the seventh Work moved
along rapidly until $50 o'clock, at which
time eleven jurors had been obtained 1t is
now thought to be certain that jury will
be secured, as $50 more subpanas have
been sent out for tomorrow, and only one
more juror is needed. The defense has only
one more strike. which makes it certain
that jury will be obtained with $50 men
to draw on.

How He "Bugled."

Zagonyi, the commander Of General
Fremont's body guard, was Il Hungarian
refugee; and u man of most gallant
spirit; not at all the man TO overlook in
subordinatiOn, or the appearance OF it,
says the Youths Com panion. He Obeyed
orders himself, and exacted obedience
from others.
Just before the final charge atSpring-
field. Mo-, Zagonyi directed one OF the
buglers, Frenchman, TO sound a
signal. The bugler seemingly paid no
attention to the order, but darted OFF
with Lieutenant Maythenyi. A few
minutes afterward he was observed in
another part of the field vigorously pur-
suing the flying infantry.
When the line was formed in the city
square after the engagement Zagonyi
noticed the bugler,a approaching him
said: "In the midst of the battle you
disobeyed my order. You are unworthy
to he member OF the guard. dismiss
YOU"
For reply the bugler held up has bugle
aud showed Tho mouth-piece shot en-
tirely away.
The mouth was shoot OF" said he.

How Councilman sander Escaped
With His Life.


With His Life.
Mrs. A. H. Sander has just received the
following interesting letter from her hus-
band, the councilman, which is self-expiana-
tory:
81 am bound here and can't telegraph or
hear a word, as we are cut off from all COM
muncation. What fearful thing water is.
Friday morning we left Pittsburg ut 8
O'Clock 1t was raining very hard, and l was
in train No. 2. 1t ralned all Friday, and by
10 o'clock we had made about eighty miles,
and on arriving at Johnstown, place of
1000, found that the Conemaugh river was
very h Ugh and most of the town was under
water. The citizens said the town he'd been
under water before, but that the river had
never been so high. After we left Johns
| town we went further up the valley and
found the first section of our train side
| tracked as well as several freight trains,
and we were informed that we would have
| to wait for washout three miles up We
had plenty of time to walk around and
| watch the river rise. About IL o'clock we
pulled up about 2, 600 feet on higher grade
so as to be out Of danger as the river had
begun to reach the track. One telegraph
pole after another was washed away and
| this left US without telegraph communities
| tion. The river raised from a. m, to p.
IN. six feet, and was even with the fine iron
| bridge, and at 2: 80 the bridge fell with a
crash aud the four men on the bridge had a
narrow escape. We learned there was a
| reservoir three miles long and one and one
| half miles wide, and from sixty to seventy
! feet deep, and that in the dam holding that
| body of water, a break was discovered, and
would be likely to burst but the citizens said
| that this was an old cry to scare folks, and at
every high water time they said this AS it
| was raining and most of the passengers were
| wet, they went into the cars and so did /, and
watched the steady rise of the water, and
tho logs and timber bridges that the angry
| river carried along, but nobody
| dreamed what fearful power water had, and
| nobody can describe, and will not attempt
to, either. At Up. m. the gravel train and
engine came down whistling the danger sig
| nal and warning us to fly to the hills for our
| lives. We left our car. all except q lady and
| porter, and they are drowned. We had no
sooner reached the hill than $50 bunkers
| houses came sweeping by. Engines came
rolling along like balls, and in few minutes
| our train was swept from the track. saw
many people floating past shrieking for help,
| but could do nothing for them. After the
| water had subsidized went over through the
water to my car and got my satchel and coat
| and then hurried across the hills to O house,
where dried my clothing. Our train
| soon caught fire and was consumed. Next
| morning they commenced bringing the bod
les up. A woman that was in my car was
brought IN, but could only recognize her
| by her dress. AT noon Thursday we
started in farm wagon for Edgerton, eigh
teen miles away, and there we took the train
| for Altoona
