Killing Among the Negroes.

killing Among the Negroes.
A shooting scrape occurred among
the negroes working on the Valley
railroad last Saturday night, at the
sand pit, in Rapides parish, about
seven miles north of Pineville. The
negroes were gambling in a box car
when the row occurred, and Jim Shell
don shot and killed Emanuel jackson
Immediately, and also shot Charles
Adams in the breast, wounding him
very severely. The crap shooters
scattered in all directions, and the
murderer made his way to Alexandria
and attempted to take the T. 4 p.
passenger, when he was arrested and
jailed.
The body Of jackson was taken to
Machen, where his family resides, for
burial. Adams is being treated for
his injuries, but is thought to be in q
dangerous condition. The negro
Sheldon, who did the shooting, is
said to be an all round crook and
dangerous character, making q regu-
lar business Of visiting the various
railroad camps about pay day, to
rob the laborers of their money. Last
Saturday was pay day, and the dark
les were flush with cash.

Many OF the greatest men have had
phenomenal memories, says writer
in Harpers. Caesar knew the names of
thousands of soldiers in his legions. A
modern man of science often has a
prodigious memory for special ter.
minology. Prof. Asa Gray could at
once recall the names of something
like $4,000 plants; Prof Theodore Gill
can do the same for fishes. Our
memory for mere words is itself much
more extensive than is generally ad.
mitted. The average well-to-do child
of two years of age has a vocabulary
OF some 500 words, and its father NAV
have the command of 10000 more.
