ANOTHER SHOOTING AFFAIR.
Henry Harvey. Coiored, Shot and Killed
by Paul Angle, Colored.

Henry Harvey, Colored, Shot and Killed
by Paul Angle, Colored.
Henry Harvey, black boy, aged ten
years, was shot and killed on the bank
OF the Roanoke river, in the Southeast
ern part of the city, by Paul Angle, also
colored, about o'clock yesterday after
noon. The circumstances attending the
tragedy, as related to TIMES reporter,
who was soon at the scene, are as fol-
lows:
Wesley Lockett, Harry Jones, Reuben
Munday, Henry Harvey, Paul Angle and
several other colored boys were in the
river bathing. Becoming tired of sport
ing in tho water they came out on the
northern bank. Angle went to his
clothes, got 3S-calibre, double-acti
revolver, and walking up to Harry,
pointed il at his feet The latter pleaded
with him to stop fooling with the pistol,
but he persisted. Finally he turned
away and then back quickly, when the
revolver went off.
Harvey cried, "Oh, Lordy he's shot
me; Oh, Lordy!' He then ran up the in
cline about ten feet fell, turned over
twice and died lying upon his face. He
lived only about one minute. The ball
entered directly over the heart and
probably penetrated that organ. Very
little blood run from the wound.
Wesley Lockett said he saw Angle at
the coal yard on east Railroad avenue
in the forenoon, with the pistol and
several cartridges. HE said he was
going to shoot boy about my size, and
l asked him II it was me. He said no,
the boy was little bigger than me. He
said boy at the hobby horse tent had
been fooling with him. and if he both
cred him again he would slip up behind
him and let him have it in tho back"
immediately after Harvey died Angle
sat down and cried awhile. He jumped
up suddenly, grabbed his pistol and
dropped IL. Recovering the weapon he
gathered his clothes under one arm,
and over the spur OF tho hill out of
sight. The la t seen of him he was
running through the apple orchard on
| the side of Mill Mountain and was soon
out of sight.
One of the boys brought tho news to
the city. and Officers Wolfe and Schultz
were sent out to capture Angle and take
charge of the body.
Officer Schultz crossed the river and
learned that Angle had gone across
| Mill Mountain. The officer followed,
but when he reached the top he was
toll by some men who were at work
there that Angie was nearly an hour
ahead of him. Schultz gave up the pur-
suit and returned to the city. Justice
lowerton, acting coroner, after hearing
the statements made by the witnesses,
decided that an inquest was unneces-
sary. Inc remains were turned over to
u ndertaker Sisler for interment.

conservative men. Roanoke has bright
prospects for the future and will be a

needed now is outside capital. All that
is necessary to convince men that this
is good place for safe and profitable
investments is to bring them here and
let them see for themselves. OF course
man must exercise prudence here as
elsewhere"

r. st. e. Grimwood, wife of Mr.. Grim
wood, the late British political agent at
Manipur, who was murdered when Chief
Commissioner James w. Quinton and
other British officials lost their lives,
has arrived in this city. According to
Mrs. Grimwood's account Of tho Mani
pur massacre, the whole disaster was
entirely due to the rashness OF Com
missioner Quinton in refusing to listen
to the sensible advice given him in re-
gard to the negotiations being conducted
with the native chiefs concerning tho
deposition of Maharaiah
Mrs. Grimwood adds that the British
have little right to complain OF Sena-
putty's treachcry, inaslnuch as Sena-
putty Second brother of the deposed
MaharaJah and CON mander- in chief of
Mauipuri forces) was invited by Quin-
ton to attend Durbar with the direct in
tention of taking him unawares and
placing him under arrest without blood
shed, which would, it was supposed,
have resulted from an attempt to openly
arrest him.
uSenaputty became suspicious Of Quin-
tons intentions, and did not appear at
Dunbar, and captured his expeotant
captors, and afterwards allowed tho
Man puris We ak vongeaI CO upon his
captives. Mrs. Grimwood s story, which
nobody seems to doubt is the true YER
sion of the events which led to the Man
ipure massacre, has caused severe re-
Elections to be cast upon tho manner in
