the prison at Michigan City, Night
Officer Herrick shot to death Monday
night James Lee, a negro, sent up from
st. Joseph county to serve a term of
from two to fourteen years for larceny.
The negro complained that waste
water was running into his cell and
asked Officer Herrick to remove him to
another part of the prison. The officer
complied with the convict's request and
prepared another cell for him. When
he returned for Lee and opened the cell
door to enter and accompany him
through the corridor, the negro, who
had been crouching in a dark corner of
the cell, sprsng upon the officer and
dealt him heavy blow with piere of
iron pipe he had torn from his cell.
Unprepsred for the sudden attack
the officer was dazed. and before he
could recover from the blow the negro,
frenzied because be had failed to rem
der his victim unconscious with the
first blow, viciously struck the officer
again. This time Herrick was expect
ing the blow and partially wsrded it
of while he drew his pistol. Before
his asssisnt could renew his attack
the officer shot him twice, but the negro
broke away and ran out of the hall
Herrick, bleeding from the deep wound
In his head bat determined to pre-
vent the escape of the desperate con-
vict, rushed after him and caught him
at the foot of the stairs as he was try
ing to reach the upper corridor.
Here the second encounter took place.
The now thoroughly enrsged negro,
who is giant IN stature, made a fran
tic attempt to brain the officer with the
iron pipe. Failing in this he sprsng
away from him and turned, throwing
the iron missile at Herrick's 8 head, strik-
ing him and making an ugly wound.
AS the convict started up the stairs
Officer Herrick shot him the third time.
but the black man continued his flight
up the steps. Following him, the
officer overlook him again in the upper
corridor. With cry of rage the negro
turned on him with the ferocity of
tiger.

COTTON PICKING MACHINE.
Cost the Inventor $4,000 and Been
Twelve Years N Perfecting.

Austin, Dec. 7.-P. p. Haring OF
Golad, the inventor of a new cotton
picking machine, arrived in the city
this morning. When seen and asked
about his new machine Mr.. Haring
said it was not entirely new; that he
had been working on the machine
Tor the past twelve years, but it is
only recently that it has been per-
fected, and he claims that It will pick
as much cotton as ten or twelve per
sons. 1t is about the size of an or.
dinary cultivator.
The machine, or rather the model
which he has at his shops at Goliad,
cost him $4,000, but he said the ny
chimes would be sold from 5000 to
$1,000 each.
So confident OF the success OF the
new machine is Mr.. Haring that he
has organized a company for manu-
facture of the machine on a large
scale.
