A DastardIy Outrage Committed on a
PeaceabIe Negro.

A Dastardly Outrage Committed on a
PeaceabIe Negro.
New ORLEANS, March 2S.-A dastardly
outrage was committed at Arcadia, in
Bienville parish, yesterday, on Dennis
Cobb, well-to-do and peaceable negro,
His house was visited at night by five
white men, who called him to the door
and told him to accompany them few
yards.
Cobb did as he was told, and when his
captors had gone 100 yards, they threw
pole line around his neck, dragged him
to tree and threw the end over limb
The struggling negro was pulled into
the air, and while he was dangling his
captors began to fire into his body. One
rifle ball struck him in the neck near the
jugular vein, load of buckshot tore
away the flesh of one arm, and another
bullet pierced his abdomen, and load
Of shot lacerated his thigh.
Cobb was left for dead, but with su-
perhuman strength raised himself in an
attempt to loosen the moose from his
neck. His struggles caused the limb
from which he hung to break, ond he
fell to the ground. He was half dead
but managed to crawl home, only to die
after few hours. Rudd Craighead and
Nat Nicholson were arrested for the
crime and have been taken to Sparta for
trial. No cause can be assigned for the
outrage, and the arrested men protest
their innocence.

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 2S.-News has
been received here Of the murder Of
Bishop Jones, noted colored preacher,
IN Allendale, S. c., ON Thursday night.
Jones formerly preached here but went
to Allendale to preach sanctiflcation and
perfect holiness. He succeeded in getting
a following, mostly women
Some of the husbands OF the women
objected, and there was a division
among the oolored people of the town.
The anti-holness people tried to dislodge
the bishop. They prosecuted him for
vagrancy, but he made a good showing
on the trial, many of the women testify
ing that they willingly contributed to
his support, and chat they would give
him the last cent of their earnings if
necessary.
Then several men disguished as women
waylaid the bishop at night. He was
bewildered and. overwhelmed Mt so much
feminine attention and readily fell into
the arms of his assailants. A short
time afterward his adherents built a
church, in which the bishop preached.
On Tuesday night last service was going
on in what they called the Holy Temple.
The bishop had prayed and taken chair
in the pulpit, and an assistant had be-
gun. to preach. A side window was
stedthily opened, the muzzle of a gun
was thrust through, and a report fol-
lowed.
The door of the church was shut The
murderers had taken the precaution to
fasten it from the outside. Upon the
discharge of the gun every light was eX-
tinguished. Then there was great con
fusion. Women screamed and expected
instant death.
Some one finally struck light, and it
was found that. the bishop was dead
Justice MiXoa and jury of fourteen
white citizens Investigated the matter
for two days, but up to late hour no
clue was found to warrant the arrest of
any one
