SAMSON TAMEs THE BULL.
An Enraged Beast COrraIIed by n
First Precinct Policeman.

Policeman Samson and vicious bull
came together in combat yesterday after
noon at Seventh and II Streets northwest,
and after a severe struggle, Samson tri-
umuhed. IL was a genuine bun fight, and
tho savage animal was pacified, captured,
and finally marched back crestfallen to
rho quarters Of its owner, Florence Shea,
72g Sheridan Street northwest. man
unknown to the police was knocked down
by the bun and slightly hurt, while sever
al show cases, it is said, were broken and
many people frightened and forced to flee.
The bull appears to have made his de-
but on Seventh Street, above Florida Ave
nue. northwest, about 4 o'clock. He es-
caped. the police say, from pen near
Fourteenth Street and Whitney Avenue
northwest, and after tearing around in
the immediate vicinity until tired, sud
denly headed down Seventh Street on the
run. In and ont between electric cars,
wagons. and vehicles Of every kind the
bull ran, while people scattered to the
right. the left, and centre to escape him.
Policemen Of the Eighth precinct had
barely time to see the bull dash by as
they stood on the street corners and give
warning by shouts of the coming of the
iufuriated beast For time the bull ran
in a straight line, and one unfortunate
man seems TO have attracted its atten-
ton. This particular man made every
effort to avoid the bull and lodged in
time TO miss his horns, but, according
TO report, was knocked down and badly
bruised The bull kept on its way.
At r Street the bull entered the con-
fines of the Second precinct. Several po-
licemen saw the animal running down the
street, but nobody seems to have cvinced
anxiety 10 follow it closely or TO try 40
stop II. il took bat "A short time for the
bull 10 reach the downtown district, and
by this time. having run nearly two
miles the animal was weary
Samson was standing on the corner of
II Street swinging his club as the bul
hove IN sight. lie did not hesitate, but
made for the bull as the bull made for
him. Luckily the policeman lodged. and
after a little difficulty he succeeded in
rounding up the tired animal. Mean
while word had been sent to Mr. Shea,
owner Of the buiI. who sent Il man To
take charge OF the Iieast Just how the
bull escaped from it's quarters Is not
known.

Mrs. Finley was about to take some
medicine, and in her nervous condition
got hold Of the bottle containing carboiic
acid, there being two Walls Of the same
size on the mantel of her bedroom. Short
ly after she had taken the drug Mrs.

moned. and went TO the house, but found
Mrs. Finley dying and could do nothing
to save her. She died in a few minutes.

SET FIRE TO A TOWN.
Negroes Thought to Have Burned the
Village of BeIIeviIIe. Ga.

SAVANNAH, Ga, May S.-News has
reached here that nearly all the small
hamlet of Belleville, Ca, about fifty-four
miles from Savannah. was burned on
Monday night. The fire is supposed to
nave been the work of enraged negroes.
The negroes have been giving the white
people a great deal of trouble in that
section recently. Only few days ago a
negro was shot and killed In BeIleviIle
for entering a house and attempting an
assault on q white woman. and since the
killing the negroes have been greatly en-
ragged, and 1t is supposed that it is their
work which has laid Belleville In ashes
The fire was discovered in the store oc-
cupied by ]. b. Collins & Bro. Of Belle
Vile. 1t spread rapidly, destroying the
storehouses Of Bert Long c. w. Hines
and 5. Bird. the turpentine plant operated
by Garter & Co, and four vacant houses.
The loss is heavy and only partially COW
cred by insurance.
On last Wednesday a negro entered a
white woman's house in Daisy, Ga. and
made an assault on her and later entered
MIR. Depres house at Claxton. just four
miles west of Daisy, which is within four
miles of Belleville and made an assault
upon his wife Mr.. Dupre was in the
room sleeping when she gave the alarm.
Dupre sprang to his feet. caught the ne
gro, and made a strong effort to hold
him. The negro drew knife and cut
him severely in several places.
Mr.. Dupre finally succeeded in getting
his rife and fired a shot at the negro,
but did not hit him. The negro made his
escape in the darkness but was captured
next day and confessed the crime. 1t is
reported that the negro mySteriOusly dis
appeared from the guardhouse in CIaXtou,
where he had been confined since his cap
ture Monday night. 1t is expected that
he will be Iynched. The excitement is
very high It is a turpentine and mill
district and there are hundreds of negroes
in the district. Further trouble is ex-

Y. NC. A. Recitals.

Music lovers have been taking interest
in the recital series which has recently
been announced for the coming musical
season, and which will provide Butler
with three concerts of unusual attrac-
tiveness. The management is in the
hands of Charles N. Boyd, of Pittsburg,
and the subscription list has already
assumed large proportions. All the
tickets will be sold by subscription, and
it is possible that there will be no sale
of tickets at the door The prospectus
announces as the attractions for the
first concert, Januarp "a, Miss Rachel
B. Frease, soprano; Mrs w. A Lafferty
contralto; S. T. Beddoe, tenor; David t.
Moore, baritone; and an accompanist,
all well known Pittsburg musicians.
| The concerts given this season in many
cities by this company have been
| everywhere characterized as superb.
| The "1n Persian Garden" has proven
a work of very unusual popularity and
furnishes the opportunity, seldom afford
| ed, of hearing a vocal quartet in a com
| position so well adapted to the purpose.
This work occupies half of the program
in the miscellaneous part each member
of the quartet will be heard in solos.
The second recital will be given by
| Lewis Williams, the-famous New York
baritone, February 1S, and the last
concert will be given March 21, by the
Kunits String Quartet, Pittsburg's vel
known musical organization. Every
member of the Quartet is soloist
of the oittsburg Orchestra, of which
Mr.. Won Kunits is concert master, an6
either individually or as an organization
needs no introduction to the music
lovers of the vicinity. Mr.. Won Kunit!
and Mr.. Merck will be the solist fol
this concert. All three of these recital'
will be given in the Y. M. G. A. Audi
torium The same series has been in
troduced by Mr.. Boyd in some thirty
cities in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Yves
Virginia this year and everywhere ha
been commended as filling a long-fel
want in providing high class concert
in regular series.
