Shot n Bad Negro.

| j. W. Whalon, prominent plant
er a few miles south Of Senate
bia, shot a negro by the name of
Buster Howard five times at the
home Of E. W. Fitzgerald last week.
On or about November s thn negro
called at the home of Mr.. Whalen
and on finding that no one was presr
ent except Mrs. 'Whalen and her
two small children, requested the
loan of rs cents. When informed
that she did not have the money,
the negro insulted her. Fortunate
ly, Mrs. Whalen secured pistol and
held the negro at bay until he was
frightened away by her appeals be-
Ing responded to by neighbors. I'm
til last week Mr.. Whalen had not
seen the negro, and a public sale at
the Fitzgerald home caused the
meeting. The negro had worked
for Mr.. Whalen until June of this
year, and he considered him dan
gerous. Prior to the shooting Mr..
Whalen called him to one side and
told him that he was familiar with
his conduct at his (Whalen's) home
a few weeks ago. He had hardly
completed the sentence when the
negro, with an oath, started toward
him, when the shooting occurred.
Physicians do not think there is any
chance for the negro's recovery. He
was shot in the forehead, left wrist,
both shoulders and stomach. Mr..
Whalen was arrested and released on
bond.

Treasury Cramped.

The treasury situation last week
was little bit cramped, owing to the
difficulty of marketing the peniten-
tlary cotton, which is ginned and
ready for shipment at various sta
tlons in the Delta, as we'll as other
parts of the State, and the prison off,
clals have had much difficulty in get
ting cotton moved as rapidly as was
desired. There is a considerable
amount Of outstanding Indebtedness
in the way of warrants which will be
coming in next week, and the peni-
tentlary money is expected to come
in during next week also. While
there will be a close finish between
the receipts and disbursements dur
ing December, the situation will be
entirely relieved in January, when
the heavy tax settlements for De-
cember begin to come in.

TO CURB MENDICANTS.
Novel Method Similar to the RoEues'
Gallery to Re Adopted in
New York City.

In his annual report of the work
of the central council of the Charity
Organization society, of New York,
President Robert de Forest describes
a novel method which has just been
adopted for the purpose of detecting
and Furnishing professional beggar4
and syndicates of mendicancy. 1t ia
proposed to establish a record bu-
reau similar to the rogues' gallery Of
the police department, where detailed
records of beggars are accessible, the
object being to deter habitual mendi.
cants from plying their trade in New
York and other large cities.
After admitting that for 20 years.
she had been sending begging letters
to prominent people, including re-
cent ones to high government off /
cials, Mrs. Annie Mayors has bech
sentenced to the workhouse for sik
months. Agents of the Charity or
ganization claimed to have about
1,000 letters signed by the woman.

Sunday Law at vicksbure.

Judge Anderson called the grand
jury into court last week and deliv-
cred a supplementary charge, in
structing them to investigate into
the observation of the Sunday law
generally. He intimated that as
the municipal authorities were dere-
ict in the discharge Of their duties
in the enforcement of the statutes,
it must be the duty of the grand
jury to take the steps that will lead
up to a due and healthy respect for
the law. The billiard rooms, cor
ner groceries, small tradesmen and
others will be made to close their
places, as have the saloons.

mony there was an interesting pro-

an address on behalf of the board
of supervisors Of Kinds county, by
Hon. Ben Fl. Wells, county attorney.
Miss Mary Burnett gave a social Sc
lection, after which the architect
Of the building, William S. Hull,
made some pertinent remarks on
Southern architecture. A vocal Sc
lection by Mrs. G. J. Johnston and

the program. The court house is
one of two handsome structures in
the county, there being another

Convict Whipped to Death.

There was quite sensation
stirred up in Coahoma county over
the unmerciful treatment of the con-
yicts on Hon. J. W. Eldridge's place
at Hill House, the outcome of which
John G. Hardy, a sergeant in the en-
ploy of Mr.. Eldridge, has been in
dicted for murder for whipping one
Henry Young, a convict, to death.
The facts developed before the grand
jury seem to be that he whipped
Young, a county convict, who had
been sent to Mr.. Eldridge, who is
the lesse Of the convicts, and while
there Hardy whipped him so unmer-
cifully that his back was a mass
of sores from his head to his heels
and he became SO debilitated that
Hardy turned him loose. He came
near Clarksdale and died few
weeks afterwards. The grand jury
has had a number of convicts be-
fore them and made personal ex-
animation Of their bodies and found
that Sergeant Hardy has whipped
them so often and so brutally that
they are in stripes all over their
bodies. Hardy is now in Jail at
Clarksdale awaiting trial and has
been refused bail. Public senti-
ment is very much wrought up at
the revelation. Hon. J. w. Ed
ridge, to his credit be it said, knew
nothing of the affair.
