MISSISSIPPI MATTERS.
A Sheriff Shot to Death.

SENAToBIA, March 2l.-This day has
been one of intense excitement in this
little city. The sheriff has been killed
and one Of his deputies badly wounded.
The trouble arose first between J. Ii.
Gilmore and j. A. Cooke ON account of
past differences. They exchanged sew
eral shots; in fact, both emptied their
pistols. Three of the balls from Cookies
pistol took effect in Gilmore's body, leg
and arm, Cooke receiving no injury.
Cooke then left the postofiice and
went up to the bank, and while stand
ing on the street, near the bank, Sheriff
Bray approached him, with pistol in
hand, and demanded his surrender.
Cooke refused to be arrested, saying he
would die.frst. Thereupon, report has
it, the sheriff told him he would shoot
if he did not drop his pistol, at the same
time presenting his pistol. At this point
shooting began again.
No one seems TO know who fired the
first shot. Bray shot twice, as the
chambers in his pistol showed. Cooke
again emptied his pistol. One bullet
hit Bray in the right side and went,
seemingly, through the body, piercing
the heart in its passage. Another
struck him in the leg below the knee
and ranged up, as though the shot had
been fired after he fell
Cooke reloaded his pistol, got on his
horse and rode away. 1t is said thata
posse was in process of forming to go
after the fugitive when his brother,
W. G. Cooke, came on the scene and
said he would see that j. A. Cooke
should come to trial, and prevailed on
them (all of whom were his personal
friends) to wait until the matter quieted
down.
1t is indeed a very unfortunate and
sad affair.
Late reports are that Mr.. Gilmore is
doing very well, and his doctor thinks
that nothing very serious will come
of it.
