a Negro Who Couldn't Wait FOR the
Old Manto Die to Get His Property.
TALLAHASSEE, FLA, Nov. San aged
father was brutalIy murdered last night on
farm near here by his son. Henry Macon,
the murd red man, was a well-to-do COLI
ored farmer For long time his son Will
liam had been urging him to divide his
property, but Macon, who was 20 years
old, always told him to wait patiently until
he died, which would not be long. The
demon OF greed possessed William, and he
made life burden to the old man. About
year ago he attacked his father
and the old man had to shoot him | a self
defense. He recovered from the wound
and began again to follow his father up
and demand that he be given "a share OF the
property. Yesterday afternoon be went to
his fathers house and tried to get his
younger brother to help him "do the old
Tnan up" but the younger son refused
Macon had been fishing and started down
the road to carry a bunch of fish to a
neighbor
THE MURDERoUs ATTACK.
Wiiliam followed him soon. Maconis
wife and younger son heard angry words
and blow. They rushed down the road
and found that William had knocked his
father down with fence rail. They CRAP
pied with him, but William drew knife
and cut his mother in the hand until she
turned him loose. Meanwhile Macon had
kot up aud was walking down the road.
William rushed after him and brutally cut
the old mans throat and then stabbed niu
in the back and side, inficting
three mortal wounds. The old man died in
about half hour. When Deputy Sheriff
Hopkins went to arrest William Macon he
found him in bed with his held bandaged.
He claimed that his father had struck him
with the fence rail and that he had stabbed
him in self-defense. The testimony of his
mother aud brother before the coroner's
jury to-day. however, did not agree with
mis- story. Their account OF the brutal af =
fair is IN substance the same as given
above.

cotton and cotton seed. The loss il from

greater loss, since the cotton aud

Inc mil house was new two-story struct-

BARN BURNS.
About u o'clock the barn OF James
Beatey, two miles north of here, was dis
covered on fire. This, together with three
bales OF cotton, 200 bus els of cotton seed,
800 bushels OF corn, Mr.. Beatey's entire crop
OF FODDER, hay, wagon, buggy, and all his
farming implements, two mules, and one
horse, were burned. There was a small

WORK ON TAA WARsaIPs.

The Mianantonomah and Atlanta Be-
ing Pushed to Completion.
New YORK, Nov. S.-The Brooklyn navy
yard presented appearance of activity to-
day witnessed for the first time sincs the
exciting times of the late war between the
states. The hum and din of busy workmen
on the war vessels Mianentonomah and At
lanta disturbed the Sabbath stiffness as a
body of 400 blue jackets marched across the
yard to divine service Workmen have
been busily engaged day and night for the
past week in preparing the two vessels for
speedy service at sea. To-day the work
Of preparation was continued, it being
the first Sunday since the late war that
such thing has occurred. There were
eighty men at work on the two vessels aud
all expedition will be used until the vessels
are ready for service at sea. The unusual
bustls and activity at the navy yard is said
not to be due to the reported sinking of the
Baltimore. but it is conceded that the strained
relations between this country and Chile
has caused the government much anxiety
to get all its war vessels ready for any con-
tingency.
