An alarm OF fire was sounded at

blaze was discovered in one OF the old
rookeries in the rear o: Hi Logs new

turned on full head three OF the old

torn down to prevent the fire spread

but suddenly changed to another

COLLINS SLAYER.
His Trial Comes Up Tomorrow in
Mobile.

The trial of Louis Reese, the negro who
early last May killed Sergeant Hugh Col
Inns, of the Birmingham Rifles at Camp
Clark in Mobile, will come up in that city
tomorrow.
Six or seven members of Collins COM
pany, Messrs Gardner, Moses, Reynolds,
Rensford, Barker and others among the
number, have been summoned to appear as
witnesses IN the trial. They will go down
TO Mobile today.
The murder OF Hugh Collins is still fresh
in the minds of all the members of the
First Alabama and to many Of his friends
in Birmingham. On Tuesday, May g. just
two days after the regiment arrived in
Mobile, one of the men in the WoodlaWn
Light infantry, Andy Gump by name, got
into dispute with the negro Reese over
piece of fried fish, which the latter was
vending. In the row, it was claimed that
the negro drew gun on Gump.
AS soon as the men in camp heard of the
negro's action, a number of them, the un-
fortunate Collins among the number, set
out to arrest the negro. AS Reese saw the
crowd of soldiers approaching him on a
dead rum many of them armed, he claimed,

AN INNOCENT BOY
GOT THE BULLET
Two Negroes Engage in a Quar-
rel Which Ends in a
Shooting ARRAY

Eugene Holland. the 1s-year-old son OF
the postoffce, was hit in the left shoulder
by stray bullet yesterday afternoon about
2 o'clock and perhaps fatally wounded.
The boy was employed by Cefaleu Bros.
gardeners in Fourth avenue, between
Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh streets
and was about to enter his employers gate
when he met with the accident. He had
ner and was returning to his work. AS he
passed up Fourth avenue he noticed Robert
Bolton and Linwood Medley, two negroes,
standing on the sidewalk, near the Cefelen
place, quarreling with each other He
paid little attention to them, but as he was
about to enter the gate, Betton pulled a
pistol and fired at Medley, the bullet miss
ing its mark and lodging in the boys Shout
der, severing an artery. Bolton fired
second shot and discovering that he had
hit the boy took to his heels and fed down
the alley and has not since been seen.
Bolton and Medley were brother-in-laws
and it is said that Betton reprmanded
Medley for abusing his mother, which
brought on the quarrel, resulting in the
shooting. The boy was removed to the
Hllman hospital near by where he was
the bullet, but failed to locate it on &C.
count of the heavy flow of blood.
Bolton is young negro and lived with
his mother near where the shooting
Cured.
The age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1897-1902, 1898-12-28

he fired two shots into the crowd, one of
them taking effect in Collins forehead, from
the effects of which he died three or four
hours later. Reese ran and escaped.
AS soon as the news was spread In the
camp that negro had killed one of the
most popular men in the regiment, the
men were wild The great majority of
them were unused to military customs, and
they paid not the slightest attention to
the feeble "halts of the sentinels as they
rushed several hundred strong out of the
camp in mad pursuit of the negro. The
men were violent and 1t was with diff
Guilty that their officers prevented them
from laying violent hands on every negro
they met.
Finally, however, the negro was located
under a house, was captured and hustled
into the county jail by one of the Mobile
policemen.
Reese was bound over in his preliminary
examination, and later the grand jury re-
turned bill of murder against him. He
is to be tried tomorrow. His defense will
be that he shot into the crowd of soldiers
in self defense. While 1t is not thought
that he will be found guilty of murder in
the first degree, neither is 1t thought that
he will get off entirely free.

1t was this way: Ruth, then mai

by descent from the Kamehamehas.
but she held the Office of Governor"
of the island of Hawaii on which is the
volcano, and naturally she was much
concerned in the last big outbreak OF

years ago. She lived on the island of
