in Jim Taylor's blacksmith shop, cor
ner Fourth and Depot screets. An
eyewitness TO the trouble says Hol-
land walked into the shop and asked
Owens to pay hin. IS cents. The lat
ter told the former TO go away. Hol-
land said: ''YOu are not going to
pay me are you?" He then drew his
pistol and began firing. The first
ball passed through the coat on the
right shoulder, but did not touch the
skin. Owens then wheeled around to
get out Of the way when he fell. Hol-
land fired again and the ball struck
Owens in the thigh.
DR.. Bynum, who attended the
wounded man, says the injury is not
serious.
Owens claims that Holland had
him indicted on the charge of an as
sault. The case was tried before
Justice Resent today who dismissed
1t and taxed Holland with the cost
This made him mad, hence the shoot
ing, 1t is said that Holland was
drinking.
The wounded man was able to walk
TO his room across the street from the

Holland made his escape. When
last seen he was going down the
Southern railroad toward Fogle's

Thieves Who Travel on Wheels.
DANBURY, Conn, Sept. Farmers
near this city are stirred up over the
raids of gang of thieves who prowl
about on bicycles. Nearly a dozen
farm houses have been broken into
within three days, and several hun
dred dollars worth Of goods have been
carried away. The robbers came
from the direction of Wilton. and it
is suspected that they may belong to
gang captained by a young woman
who is under arrest at that place.
The bicycle burglars first ma lie their
appearance in Redding Glen, ten miles
below here, on Friday afternoon. The
farmers and their families were away
at a picnic and the robbers broke into
several places. In some places money
just received by the farmers for their
crops was taken. At King Street yes
terday they visited the Methodist par
sonage while the Rev. Mr. Vandyke
was at church. They took money and
food. The robbers were pursued so
holly that one of them abandoned his
bicycle and took to the fields. Anoth-
er one sprinted away from his pur-
suers, and afterward stopped on the
re ad and broke into Hiram Stevens
house while the family was at church

HAS BILL DAYS HAT.
Lively Race After the Murderer
Near StoneYille.


Sheriff Kapp has the hat of Bill
Day, the negro who killed his sweet
heart, Laura Ellis, near Belo's Pond,
Saturday night. 1t is white hat,
with black band and has several holes
in it.
The hat was sent to Sheriff Kapp
by Joe Harris, who had a race after
the negro near Stoneville late Mon
day afternoon. A party brought I'll e
hat over on the N. & w. train last
night.
The Sheriff received telegram
from Harris Mouday afternoon stat
ing that Day passed through Stone
Vile He also asked the Sheriff tC
state what reward was offered for the
negro's capture The Sheriff told Har-
rs to arrest Day at once.
Harris, accompanied by two or
three men, went out on their bicycles
in pursuit of the muderer. They did
| not think he would suspect any thing
wrong, but it was not so, for when the
officers got within two or three hun
dred yards of the negro he looked
around and saw them coming and in
| less time than minute he left the
| railroad and began running toward
| the woods. Had he followed the
| track the men no doubt would have
overtaken him. Harris and his asso
ciates left their wheels and ran after
| him for some distance, but on &C
| count of the woods and the fact it
| was growing dark they soon lost sight
Of their man. 1t was during the race
| that Dav dropped his hat.
Sheriff Kapp still believes that the
| negro will be caught.
Sheriff Kapp bad heard nothing
more from Day up to o'clock Tues
day afternoon.
Notwithstanding the above reports
it is believed by some that Day i:
secreted in or near Winston. The
Sheriff offers $40 reward for HE ar
/ rest.
