The Murderer Captured.

Tom Graham. the cold b Oudrd assassin
Who murdered his wife in lirOOkhaven n
week ago Monday night. has been cap
turcd aud is now ia the county Jail. He
was pursued all the way across the conn
" to Natchcz after the murder 10y JEFF
Mccullough, Bill Morgan, Phil Rcmbert
and Alex Winston, cOlured, aud overhaul
ed by JEFF Mccullough and Bill Morgan,
riding on wagon with another negro,
Just before he. reached the city limits.
Refusing to Surrender and breaking to
run, he was filled full of small shot 10y
his pursuers. Who left him iu ditch in
field where be- had taken refuge after his
flight ard went on to NatcbeZ to get the
assistance of Sheriff Lambert. While
JEFF and Bill were gone for the Sheriff,
Phil Rembcrt came along with his gun
where the shooting occurred, aud hearing
the wounled man -rpIuIug IN the ditch,
took him prisoner AID when The Shrrffs
deputies arrived, turned hin over to
them.
Sheriff McNair was tclegraphed for aud
went over with Deputy Sheriff S. +. Ma
gee and reached HON, with Graham Sat
urday morning, via Jackson. His wounds
are painful, but not dangerous. He con
fes,es to killing his wife, alleging inf
deity Oh her part as driving him to the
deed.
Great credit is due To the colOrcd men
who pursued aud captured bin, especial
ly to JEFF Mccullough, who led the party,
and but for whose zeal and determination
the chase would probably have been
abandoned.

have not less than three different
times since asked him for them or to
be given an opportunity to copy the
two failed to copy. The last time
mentioned the matter, ] requested II
he would not let me have the letters
or COPY them, that he would permit
me to read Supt. Smiths second let
ter again, that might get synopsis
of it and be certain not to misstate It's
contents in any particular | not hav-
/ ing read it since the day he showed it
. to me on the cars), but even that re-
quest was not granted. Meanwhile
/ the Doctor. who had shown such n
disposition previously to button hole
me OH the street and talk about the
letters nearly every time an Oppor-
tunity offered, actually grew 'ofiish"
and showed 10 disposition to talk
about the subject ut all, though when
he did talk would reiterate his OppOs-
ition to Smith aud ask if some good
man could not be brought out to beat
him.
The only explanation he offers for
his sudden change of tactics on the
subject is, that certain friend of his
joined in a 5000 bond with him to Mr..
Benson for the safe-keeping and re-
turn of the letters, and that this
friend Ito me unknown and never
mentioned until | had had the letters
and returned them) was going to be a
candidate for some Office and he was
afraid of doing any thing to turn the
Smith influence against him. This
unknown "frlend" who is willing to
cover up official crookedness to secure
office himself, is also represented as
being very wroth that the Doctor al
lowed me to have copy of the letter
published. Who he is will probably
be developed further along in the
campaign.
In conclusion | wish to add few
words of personal explanation. As
has no doubt already been gathered,
| have made this statement, just as
the conscientious and faithful journal
list often has to do, contrary to all of
my personal feelings and inclinations,
and as a duty conceive | owe to the
public. | have no candidate for SUI
perintendent of education whose in
terests wish to advance, but it is of
such paramount Importance to have
man at the head of the educational
affairs of the county for the ensuing
four years who is above suspicion and
reprOach, | felt it would have been
nothing short of criminal for me to re-
main silent and allow Supt. Smith to
succeed to the Office without acquaint-
ing the people with the facts herein
set forth. l have avoided all
denunciation and abuse, and have
simply given you the facts in a PLAIN
way for your deliberate consideration,
and leave you to draw your own con-
illusions. a portion of them are
strongly suggestive of political deals
and conspiracy against the peoples
interests that will no doubt develop
themselves in due time. For lack of
space | have omitted minor converse
ton and circumstances. Possibly, a
part of what | have stated will be de-
MED by the persons chiefly interested,
but wish to say there is not mate
rial assertion l have made that |
would not be willing to go upon the
stand and substantiate under oath.
With this | leave the subject with
YOU. b. T. HOBBS.

$72 a Bale for Cotton.

ECLIPSE COTTON GIN, with IA HULLER AT
TACHMENT. With this kind of a gin planter
can gin cotton of very long staple making
splendid sample, selling in the market at 17c. a
pound; or he can gin on the same gin very dirty
cotton, turning out sample from this kind OF
cotton of the very highest grade and bringing as
high price as cotton well and cleanly picked
We have hundreds of testimonials regarding
the wonderful work done on the Eagle Eclipse
Iiuller and Cotton Gin. During the season OF
1889 a large number of planters sold their cot
ton ginned on this Eagle Eclipse lluller Cotton
Gin, i'll various markets at 16, To- and 17la cents
pound. MeSSrS. Harris. Day a Cot sold Il
bales of this cotton for ii ii Davis, of Bruins
wick, Miss, at 17ia cents pound, and they
write to Mr. Davis that it was the most wonder
| full work of any saw gin. and that the staple
which was so long, was not cut seems very re-
markable. During the season of 1899 large
number of planters obtained remarkably high
prices for cotton ginned on the EAGLE
ECLIPSE IIULLER GIN.
One planter states that Harris, Day & Co.
| have sold this cotton as high as IL cents a
pound. Mr.. l. Benny, of Madison parish.
states that Harris, Days. Co sold 100 bales OF
net him s72 bale. The. crop of Dr. George
Humphreys, was also ginned on the Eagle
Eclipse Huller gin, and sold by a j Forstall at
| 16Is c. a pound, One planter who purchased
two Eagle Eclipse Huller Cotton Gins the
past season states that John Hardie 4 Co;
sold his crop of $40 bales at one cent pound
| liams writes that the Eagle Eclipse Huller Gin
| bought for him through John L Hardie Il Co..
| made Il sample TO cotton which Drought 10 per
cent. higher price than any of his neighbors OBJ
! tanned for cotton gnned on other cotton gins.
| We now have a large stock OF the Eagle and
| Eagle Eclipse Huler Cotton Gins ready for i'm
mediate shipment, Send for illustrated cata-
lOgueS and price lists.
The entire crop of long staple cotton of ii. ii.
| Davis, OF Brunswick. Miss, was ginned on a
new Eagle Eclipse Huller Gin with the Patent
| Combined Breaker and Feeder. and sold at 17l2
| C. pound.
Mi Davis writes to the New Orleans Machine
| Co, Limited as follows:
| 1.-THE cotton with ordinary handling was sold
all of it, first and last packing complete by Har-
| Tis, Day e. Co., at 17i5 cents pound There
were siXty-fOur bales of my own cotton and
| eight bales of neighbours, all ginned on your
| EAGLE ECLIPSE HULLER GIN. l cannot do
better than quote from Harris, Day & Co.'S let
| ter regarding the ginning; they say: AS far as
| the ginning Is concerned, we must compliment
| YOU 1t is the MOST WONDERFULWO WORK OF
ANY SAW GIN, and that the staple which is
| very long, is not cut, seems very remarkable.
| The cotton was not prepared, as is often the
case, at fair, but simply handled like the rest
| of the crop, and was sold on its merits
| The above endorsement OF the EAGLE
| ECLIPSE HULLER GIN, with the combined
| BREAKER and FEEDER, proves the SEPE-
| RIORIrY of the gin over any other kid.
| Samples of the 171a cent cotton are now on
| exhibition at our office.

MONDAYS CYCLONE.
1T SWEEPS THROUGH LINCOLN COUN-
TY WITH DESTRUCTIVE FORCE.
Many Persons Seriously Injured and Much
Property Destroyed.-The storm


I
Property Destroyed.-The storm
Elsewhere.
After the gentle rain of Sunday aud the
heavier showers of Sunday night, with
no signs of electrical disturbances and
storms, the people of Brookhaven were
startled Monday morning about o'clock
to Learn that cyclone of tremendous
power had passed few miles east of town
that morning between five aud six O'clock.
The first serious damage reported was
where it struck east OF Bogue Chitt0.
There it blew down the houses on Mr.
Ames Hodges place aud badly wounded
Mr.. Hodges, his wife and sou. The house
of David Reeves, another farmer in that
neighborhOOd, was demolished. At the
old Van Zant mill, where MIR. L. G.. Nc
Nair has logging camp, 1t struck with
terrific force. Nine houses were blown
down here or moved from their founda-
tons. WIN. Stone had right arm broken
and face and shoulder horribly crashed
Mrs. Stone had her color-bo broken and
shoulder badly bruised, with perhaps IN
ternal injuries. DIR. John johnson of
BroOkhaven, who was called to see the
wounded ones at this place says it is
doubtful whether Mr.. and Mrs. Stone will
recover. Mr.. Stones sister received some
slight bruises, these being the only white
persons hurt at this place. A negro boy
named - Henderson from BroOkha-
ven had an eye knocked out and his little
brother was cut in the leg. A small ne
gro child had its arm broken and negro
girl received bad cut in the head. Sew
eral other negroes received slight bruises
Sixty oxen were under the ox-shed, which
was blown down but only one killed, and
but few Others hurt.
The cyclone was marked by the usual
characteristics. 1t was from 800 yards to
u quarter of a mile wide and dipped down
and assembled at different points accord
ing to its caprice. In some places it
touched only the tops of the timber; in
others it swept the ground, twisting and
whirling and carrying down every thing
in its track. In the Mt. Moriah neigh
borhood Mr.. Samuel Chandler is reported
to have lost all the houses on his place
except his dwelling and others are said TO
have suffered severely, bnt particulars
from that locality are meagre. 1t crossed
the Brookhaven and Monticello road al
Ebert Lovells, just beyond the old Fair
River store. Mr.. Lovell's blacksmith and
wagon shop was completely destroyed and
his house and its contents badly injured.
He and his family happened not to be at
home. The buildings on Mr.. Joe Max
wells place and at Mr. Brewers suffered
badly. All crops and fencing in the track
of the storm are reported completely
wrecked, and it will be several days be-
fore the full extent of the damage can be
learned.
