English Used Lyddite.

An English naval commander
says that towards the close of
the Peters Hill engagement
the naval guns threw lyddite
shells on kopje $500 yards
distant. When the place was
evacuated by the Beers he visit
ed the trenches and counted
therein ninety>eight dead Beers
who had been killed by the con-
cussion of the lyddlte, not one
of them having a wound of any
kind. Lieutenant Anderson de>
clared that the fumes of the
lyddite turned the hair and
boards of the dead men to a
peculiar greenish hue, while the
color OF their skin was a strange
yellow.

please bring me a drink of

then he gave her candy and
said: Did the man just ahead
of me give you candy2' Yes, Sir.
Then he gave her q nickel and
said Did he give you money!

hORFO[k'S BLACK
MONSTER KILLED
He Assaulted and Robbed
Helpless Women There.
TERROR OF THE CITY
He Ran From One Officer
Straight Into the Arms of
Another, Who Shot Him
in Self Defence.

Norfolk, Va, March 90
The indications are that the
negro who has broken into
several residences, assaulted and
robbed helpless women recently,
and we'll nigh terrorized the
town was shot and killed this
morning by Policeman Salyer.
He is Brooks Ramsey, deck
hand on the Chesapeake and
Ohio steamer Louise, who about
five O'Clock this morning enter
ed the home of Mrs. Virginia
Pruitt, an aged dress maker on
Charlotte street, and brutally as
saulted her with a piece of iron
CRATE. Shortly after. fleeing from
the house he was arrested by
Officer Caffee, from whom he
escaped, to run into the arms of
Salye1, who after a desperate
struggle shot Ramsey to avoid
being killed by him. In the hip
pocket OF the negro, to which
he had reached before Salyer
shot, was found a 38 calibre
revolver.
Mr.. and Mrs. Miller, who
were murderously assaulted in
their home the night of March
1th, identified the shoes the
negro had On as having been
taken from their house. Miss
{ otton, who was subsequently
assaulted in her home, identified
the rings found in possession of
Ramsey's wife, as the same torn
from her fingers, and Mrs. Jones,
another aged victim, identified
him as the man who attacked
her. Several overcoats found in
his house have been returned to
their owners. He is no doubt the
man the police have been look
ing for.
