SOUTHERN GLEANl NGS.


A lively battle was fought about day
break the other morning at Mont
gomery, Ala, between Dick Knight, a
notorious negro chicken-thief, and two
police officers, in which knight was
killed. The negro had raided several
roosts near the capitol, and was maxi
ing away with his plumber in a sack
on his back. The noise made by the
fowls attracted the attention of the
officers, who commanded Knight to
halt Instead of doing so he opened
fire on the officers, and about twenty
shots were exchanged before the negro
fell. Neither of the officers were
struck. Knight was VIGOROUSLY bad
negro. He was about 20 years old, and
had served five terms in the peniten-
tiary.

A Silver League Organized.

AT Fort Smith silver league has
been organized with large member
ship. The league is nonpartisan, but
most of the members are democrats.
Quite number of republicans have
joined, and a few populists have gone
into the organization. Ex-Gov. Fish
back is chairman of the league, and
may be made president when the con-
stitution is adopted and the organiza-
tion made permanent. Congressman
Little delivered speech and was
heartily applauded. His speech was
substantially the same that he dellv-
cred in Little Rock in reply to Josiah
Patterson's argument.
