bundle, and they were just starting to
search him when he broke and ran. The
relative position of the officers and refu-
gee were such that the rays of an electric
light were thrown to protect the fleeing
negro, who took refuge behind a bush of
deep foliage. Officer Alexander fired
without aim and with the result of
bringing the darkey out from his hiding
place. He started on get-up-and- dust
run, divesting himself first of his hat and
pistol, which the officers secured as
trophies. The game, however, escaped.
