A Desperate Negro

Jack Harley, negro desperate and a
follower of the noted Robert Charles
made himself disagreeable on the Caiu-
met plantation, near Patterson, last Sat-
urday morning and when Assistant SUI
perintendcnt Henderson ordered him off
the place he became insoient and refused
to go. Mr.. Henderson being unac-
quainted with the character Of the negro
merely struck him with buggy whip
as he made i motion to draw his weapon.
Hardey took deliberate aim and fired at
the superintendent. MIR. Hubert Edison,
the chemist Of the place, was nearby at
the time and rushed at the negro but be-
fore he could reach him Hardey fired
| again, the second bullet striking Mr..
Edison in the hip. Tho bullet that
struck Mr. Henderson pierced the liver
and the left lobe Of the lung The negro
after the shooting fled but was pursued
by party headed by Mr.. Thompson, the
manager. who fired several shots at the
desperate, -four of them taking etfec..

yards from the plantation Office the black
tiend sought refuge there with the idea
no doubt Of firing upon his pursuers
from the stronghold afforded bv the
building and had he carried out this idea
there is no telling what the results might
have been. But his pursuers without any !
hesitancy fired the building ard with re-
volvers and rifles awaited his coming.
In a few minutes the building was a mass
of flames. The negro having stood the !

 The social and literary meeting at the West Prescott Methodist church last night was largely attended. Every one seemed to enjoy them selves heartily. The literary masque- rade was quite novel and interesting as well as instructive. The feature of the evening was several readings by Miss Margaret Speed of San Der nardino. Encore after encore follow ed as each response was made, until after the sixth number the pastor, who had charge of the exercises, re- minded the audience that good nature might be too much imposed upon and asked the congregation to join in singing, God be With You Till We Meet Again" Refreshments were served freeand bountifully. The audience showed their appreciation by liberal voluntary contribution which will be used to purchase the Epworth League reading course for the New Year.
