SHOT FROM AMBUSH
Negro Killed by Members of His Own
Race Through Revenge

Leesburg, Ca, April 27.-Alf Thurman, a
well-known negro, was shot and killed from
ambush on the public road near here this
morning. His body was completely riddled
with bullets. The cause of the tragedy is
believed to have been revenge.
When George Bivins George Fort and Bill
Holt the three negroes who outraged Mrs.
Maroney in the presence of her husband in
this county a few months ago, they were
run down by Thurman, and it was through
his efforts that they were brought to justice
and later lynched. Thurman at that time
expressed himself as bitterly opposed to
the crime committed by the negroes, and
openly stated that he would use all his
efforts towards their capture which he did.
His life was threatened by friends of the
dead negroes.
The lynched negroes friends had arrang-
ed to kill three white men of the county,
who had made threats against BEins, Holt
and Fort and were about to carry it out
when Thurman heard of it and began to
hunt out the scheme to prevent the murder.
He had almost succeeded In completely
trapping the nine conspirators when they
turned the tables and shot him to death
in the road. The parties are nearly all
known and a number of arrests will be
made within the next few days
This part of the county has been terror
lied by band of outlaw negroes for :eE-
eral wears, the three who We're lynched IN
january being their leaders. Several prom
inent whito men in the county have been
threatened by the gang, and the people are
So terrorized that they will not leave home

NO NEWS.RECEIVED
Otis Sends No Information Regarding
the Campaigns

Washington, April 27.-The war depart
ment did not receive any information from
General Otis respecting developments in the
campaign at Calumpit. ie
1t is said now while it is part of the
plan for Lawton, moving westward from
Norzagaray to take the rebels in the rear
at Calumpit and crush them between his
own forces and that of Macarthur, the
principal object was to clear the country
back to the foot hills of the numerous small
bodies of insurgents who haye-been
harassing the country and making life mis-
cradle for the American troops BY f9rays
at unexpected times and places. p =
1t is believed General Lawton has, fully
succeeded in this and when he has erected
a junction with Macarthur north of Calum-
pit it will be possible to establish COM
paratively short line of works across the
country and prevent the return of the in
surgents from the north.
