Ben Hazards Brutal Assault Upon
His Wife-A Convlct's Work.
A telephone message was received at
police headquarters yesterday morning
from the eastern part of the city, that a
negro was killing his wife, at No. 1O15
Macon street. An officer was sent at once
by Acting Assistant Chief Lee but when
he arrived at the scene of the trouble the
wOuld-be murderer had escaped. The door
TO the house was forced open, and the
woman was found lying across bed bleed
ing from the mouth and head. She was
unconscious. The house was searched, but
the assailant had escaped through a back
door. The police followed him. but were
unable to get any clue after tracking him
out of the neighborhood
The news spread among the colored peo-
pie that Bon Hazard had murdered his
wife, and they We're soon in arms. Three
hours later Hazard was recognized in Frog
town, and was in a fair way Of being
mobbed when Officer Anglin took him to
the barracks.
Jane Hazard, the wounded woman, was
treated by DR.. w. w. Owens. The doctor
does not consider her wounds dangerous
The woman said that Hazard had Just got
Off of the chain-gang. He was sent up a
week ago for stealing, and had served his
time out. lie suspected his wife
of being intimate with another man
during his term on the gang, and provoked
a difficulty Sunday night and beat her
Yesterday morning he got up and went
away, but returned about II o'clock out of
bumor, and found her at the house of q
neighbor. He made her go home and
struck her, as they entered the house, sew
eral times. She ran out OF rear door to
escape, but Hazard caught her in the yard
and struck her again several times, and
dragged her back to tho house, where he
beat her into iusensibility.
Clara Williams, living next door, saw the
fracas and begged Hazard to desist. Eliza
Fender saw Hazard when he knocked the
woman down and jagged her in the house.
After he had beaten the woman in the
house he ran out the back door and through
Eliza Pc der's yard and escaped.
Hazard bears a bad reputation in the
neighborhood where he lived.

panion Ara Working.

panion Are Working.
Gentlemen, won't you be so good as to
give me sorne little assistance, and help me
TO get home, as I had the misfortune to
break my arm a few days ago, and am try
ing 70 raise enough money to buy me a
ticket to 90 homer
The speaker was stability dressed young
man, with light hair and ford complex
ion, and with his right arm heavily band
aged, and resting in sling. The incident
occurred at Jesup, in the first-class coach
Of the Savannah, Florida end Western fast
mail train bound for jacksonville. The
train had stopped at the station, and the
conductor and engineer were over at the
telegraph Office getting order.
The two gentlemen addressed by the
young man readily pulled out their pocket
books aud each oae handed him a piece Of
silver. The mendicant touched his hat
with his uninjured arm and passed on
down the aisle Of the coach, uttering his
stereotyped appeal 20 the occupant Of every
seat good many passengers stared at
the unfortunate stoidly, or looked out Of
the windows with "A suddenly developed in
terest in the scenery at Jesup. But fully q
dozen tourists and other passengers CON
tributed literally in response to the appeal
and moved, perhaps, by the sight Of the
Dandaged arm.
A Savannah drummer, sitting near the
rear Of the car, glanced up over his MORN
ING NEWS when addressed by the beggar,
and net only failed to contribute any of the
desired "assistance,' but shocked several
sympathetic tourists sitting near by telling
tho young man sharply, to "Ret out OF
thereW The young man with the broken
arm pOcketed his collections, and left the
car quickly, without reseuting or looking
again at the drummer
The train started about that time, and n
benevolent looking old gentleman, who had
given the beggar so cents, suggested to the
drummer that unfortunate people should
command sympathy and help rather than
kicks and harsh treatment"
yes" replied the drummer, ''but that
fellow has got to be- chestnut. | gave
him % cents last August to help him get
home, and be hasn't gone vet, neither has
that arm healed up. He don't come to me,
generally, because he sees me often, but this
morning was reading my paper, and he
took me for a tourist See"
A solemn hush fell upon the group of
passengers, and the MISUNDERSTANDING old
gentleman stroked his beard nervously for
a few moments; after which he went for
ward to the baggage-car, and hired one of
the brakemen to kick him ell over the car.
The same youngster with broken arm
aud IA companion worked Savannah very
successfully for a couple of weeks before
Christmas. When cornered here the beg
gar gave away the game, and said that he
and another fakir had been PLAYING the
dodge for nearly year. OF course the
broken arm was a sham

After-Theater Cars.

Last night was one of the nights when
theatre cars would have been well patron
lied if there had been any. A heavy rain
was falling at the close of the Lolita per-
Torrance, and had been falling for nearly
two hours. The people were unprepared
for it. The hack drivers were. ana they
hsd a harvest. There was a rush for the
Abercorn and Whitaker street cars in the
hope of finding them, but there was only
one car on the Whitaker street line, making
its regular trip, and that was packed from
platform to platform. Half dozen cars
would have been filled had the railroad
management seen fit to run them. After
theater cars are what the theater-goers
want.
