MURDER IN RAILROAD CAMP One Negro Grained and Another
 Shot to Death. TROUBLE WITH THE BOSS Another Killing Result of Accident in a Saw Mill-Stick of Timber Struck a
 Man on Head
Special to The Age-Herald.

Decatur, March 4-Meager accounts reached here tlhis morning of three kill ings in the eastern portion of Limestone county day or two since. A gang of negroes were working on a railroad grade on the Middle Tennessee and Alabama when one of the gang became involved in a difficulty with one of the bosses, white man.
 Hot words passed and the negro took his hat and left. He returned shortly The white man ran up to the negro and bIained him with heavy oak bar called tenlter hook. The dead negro's partner started to his friends assistance and was shot dead in his tracks by the other white man. The other negroes then fled. Latter the two white men concealed the dead negroes in a gondola of coal which stopped at the point during the night, and thedn- selves left across the country towards the Tennessee mountains.
 The report was brought here by a Lime stone county farmer named James M Nell son, who said he was so excited he did not learn the names of any of the men. The location of the trouble was too remote for more definite information to be had.
 The other killing was the result of an accident in a saw mill caused by a stick of timber breaking in two and crashing through a mill wall. It struck a white man on the head mashing his skull into a jelly. Name unknown.

Special to The Age-IIerald.

Anniston, March 4.-Local officers and Southern railway detectives are looking for negro coal thief who, on Wednesday night, eit and seriously wounded brake man named Majors, in the railroad yards in this city. Majors, who is freight brakeman on the Southern, caught the negro stealing coal and attempted to cap ture him. The negro was armed with big knife and offered resistance. He cut the brakeman severely and the two fought for some moments, the brake man smashing his lantern over the negros head. The negro finally escaped, and is still at large.

Grave Hill Democrat: We regret to learn that MT. John Davis, of Dickinson, six miles northwest of this place, was killed on Tuesday of last week. He was saving down pine tree which in falling, jumped back and killed him instantly.
 Greensboro Watchman: The sale of the plantations belonging to the estate of the late ex-Gov. Seay took place in Greensboro on last Monday. The Haywood place, con- taining 320 acres, was purchased by MT. 3,Wm. Monette for 5000; the Bestor place, containing 798 acres, was bid in by MT. R. c. Oliver for $6 900; the Carlton place, con- taining 2,490 acres, was purchased by MT. Reuben Seay for 1,145. The store house on Main street, now occupied by Messrs.

 Huntsville Democrat: On last Friday pr. F. E.

 GreenNiye Living Truth-Policeman Baisden shot and killed a tramp on Wednesday of last week named Will Mill er Baisden claims that he had orders to arrest the young man, and when he at tempted to do so he ran, whereupon the policeman drew his pistol and shot him in the back of the head. Baisden says he merely shot to frighten the fellow. He was put under a $500 bond to appear before Justice Goosby on Wednesday of this week for preliminary trial. Human life is mighty cheap-"but 1t was only tramp" And yet we can't help feeling sorry for the condition of a poor fellow, these tight times on men when so many are out of employment, and are forced to beg or starve. It looks hard that we can't let them pass through the town without subiecting them to the risk of being shot A boy that was with Miller came into our office that morning and begged for a few cents to buy some bread We gave him a nickle. We are inclined to believe that Baisden did not intend to kill, but he shot very recklessly
 Fort Payne Journal: An unoccupied house in the Cave addition was discov- cred to be on fire on last Monday morn- ing about 2:30 o'clock and before assist ance could arrive was under such head way that checking the flames was impos- sible and it was soon burned to the ground. The building was owned by the First National bank of Damariscotto. Ne. The building cost originally q. 1.000 Of course, property in Fort Payne has deteriorated to an enormous extent and liberal value would place the loss at 500.

Health Of the Troops Far From Good
Early in October.
san FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.-The Associ-

correspondence dated Manila, Oct. g.:
The health of the troops here at present
is far from being good, Notwithstanding
the statements of the medical depart
ment to the contrary. At Cavite the
conditions are very bad. There have
been 40 deaths there since Sept. l, mostly
from typhoid fever. One-third of the
officers Of the Montana volunteer regi-
ment are on the sick list, including the
colonel and lieutenant colonel, who are
unfit for duty. The hospital accommo-
dations there are inadequate. The sup
ply Of medicines was exhausted at one
time and for days there was nothing
medicinal to administer to the patients.
In Manila the conditions are better.
The men are fairly we'll quartered and
are being given better accommodations
as fast as possible and it will not now
be long before all reason for complaint
will have passed.
