HE'S WISER NOW
A Coon Gives Ed. Potter a
Race.
Potter Uses Pistol as Last Resort and Bags
His Came. The Negroes Wound is
Very Slight.

There is one coon in town now that
wishes he had known enough to stop
when commanded to do so by one of the
"minions of the law"
That coon's name is said to be Sion
Smith. He had an experience yesterday
that probably shocked his nerves some
what and gave him increased respect for
the authority of an officer in the dis
charge of his duty and some new ideas
on the very commonplace subject of
swiping everything he came across, not
too hot or heavy and loose at both ends.
Now the Sion aforesaid was charged
with feloniously stealing a revolver be-
longing to officer Ed Potter from Dixon
and Denton's bar on Martin street. Of
ficer Potter, swore out a warrant be-
fore Squire Barbee, and being of an
economical turn of mind, decided to serve
it upon the defendant himself. After
some searching he found the sought for
Sion on Martin street. The negro lit out
at a 2:40 clip, and the doughty officer,
mounting his tried and trusty bicycle,
(make of 90, pursued him like an aveng-
ing nemesis, only nemeses don't ride
bicycles. The coon turned in on Har-
gett street, and ran in an open lot.
Officer Potter dismounted and called to
him to stop, but he paid no
attention to the call. After having re-
peatedly called to the negro to stop,
Potter fired at him as he ran. The ball
took effect in the negro's leg just below
the knee, and brought him to a stand
still. A number of negroes who had
been attracted by the race, were stand
ing around, muttering and sullen looking,
and barred Potter's way when he reach
ed the street. 1t looked for a moment
as if there might be trouble, but Potter
told them that he had four more balls
in his pistol for them if they interferred
with him. They lost no time. in falling
back.
The negro was taken to a physician
in the Tucker building, and the wound
dressed. The injury was slight, the ball
having caused only a flesh wound. He
was later released upon bail. He was
seen walking about the streets late yes
terday evening and when questioned
about the matter refused to speak.

| am glad to learn that the friends
of Mr.. Alexander j. Field, of Raleigh,
are urging his name for Elector from
this district, and | hope Wake county
will give him solid vote. Mr.. Field
was formerly citizen of Granville
county, where he did a good service
in the cause of Democracy, but for
over three years he has been a citi-
zen of Wake. His speeches on the
amendment in the last campaign
were strong and convincing and show
him to be an able campaigner. The
party needs the services of just such
men and | believe the Democrats of
the Fourth district will do well to
confer the honor on Mr.. Field.
