Of the most desperate fights with a

the officers. Jones killed a woman, be-
cause of jealousy, and a negro man.
Sheriff Armstrong was notified of the
murder of the woman in the southeast
ern part of the county, and with depu-
ties hurried to the scene. He found
that the woman had been shot down
as she sat by the side or her husband
in her home and that Jones had es-
capped to the woods.
The outlaw in the meantime, in his
flight, had run upon Dan Anderson, a
white man who was hunting, and, be-
lieving the man to be an officer, had
without warning shot him down. Jones
was finally surrounded in vacant
house, but kept the small posse at bay
with his rifle and finally escaped.
The sheriff increased his posse and
resumed the hunt this morning. follow
ing the trail for miles, when the negro
was finally surrounded in d live oak
prairie near Higdon.
AT the sight Of the posse the outlaw
opened fire and a vigorous fusillade
continued for several minutes. After
the smoke had cleared, Sheriff Arm
strong and Deputy Marlborough were
both wounded. one ball striking the
former in the head Neither officer,
however, is fatally wounded. The
negro outlaw was also found prostrate
in his own blood, with several wounds
in his body. He is yet alive.

New York Yacht Club declines to Let
Her Contest for Cup Next Summer

New York, October 9.-The New York
Yacht Club today declined Sir Thomas
Llpton's proposal TO race the Shamrock
again next summer for the Americas
cup.
Sir Thomas proposition was submit,
ted by Vice Commodore Sharman Cra-
ford. He stated that his committee. on
behalf of Sir Thomas, desired to ask
II the New York Yacht Club would
Withdraw in favor of the Shamrock
that paragraph Of the deed of gift pro-
Nldlng that no vessel which has been
defeated in match for this cup can
be again selected by any club as it's
representative until after a contest for
1t Dy some other vessel has interviewed
or until after the expiration of two
years from the time of such defeat"
Commodore Ledyard stated that the
committee of the New York Yacht Club
was of the opinion that the mutual
agreement clause gives no power TO the
club holding the cup to accept a chal-
lenge which the instrument itself pro-
hibitS absolutely. The committee did
not think it was intended that, after
boat had had q trial for the cup and
been defeated, she should be allowed TO
challenge again until the time specified
has elapsed, and so declined to accede

TIE NEGRO EXonrS.

We regret to learn that so many

general thing, the colcred farmer
Is the most thrifty specimen of th.
race. and his departure from the

change ia our agricultural out

The past year has bren harder
on The negroes Of our county than
any on record. owing to the con
iiuued rains through the summer.
Many families have neither corn
or meat, to keep them from want
during the winter months. and
have had to give up their stock to
meet their last years supply bill.

be paid them weekly, and where

will be a calamity which will be
materially felt by all clssses of
citizens when the business sea
ION opens up next tall. There are
oilers about the towns. who could
be taken. and the community all
the better for their departure, but
there are serious objections to
the negro farmer exodus.
While Inducements are being
offered farm laborers To move TO
the delta, we believe with pr0rer
management there would be no
necessity for farm hands TO seek
other homes.
At this seaso ofthe year. there
Is much work that could be done
