Negro CIubbed to Death.

The most sensational crime com
mitted in Port Gibson, Miss, since
it's existence was revealed the other
day. William Foster, a well-known
citizen OF that place, made a prisoner
of Abe Deal, a young negro, who
killed Barge Miller, a young negro OF
Natchez. 1t seems the latter had just
arrived in Port Gibson, and, being a
stranger, fell into the hands of Deal,
who promised him a bed for the night
in a barn belonging to Thomas Hall,
who was his employer. That night
Miller wished to dispose of some
clothing and n grip to his new friend
for the sum of 81, when a dispute
between the two occurred. Deal
cfubbed Miller to death, and after
wards loaded his body into Mr.. Halls
over a bayou and threw his man
overheard, first robbing him of all
clothing and what money could be
found upon his person. Deal, having
considerable confidence in Mr.. Fos-
Ter, told him of his terrible deed, and
Mr.. Foster took him to Jail and de-
livered him to Deputy Sheriff Nc
Ghee. A reporter interviewed the
prisoner, who confessed the murder
in all it's details. Mr.. Foster and the
county officials are now searching the
bayou for the body of the victim
The barn was visited by hundreds OF
people, and blood stains were visible
in many places. The prisoner is Sc
curely confined in a steel cage in the
county Jail, and the colored popula-
ton is very much incensed over the
affair.

am his god that he follows me 50.
How he will bark when he hears my applause,
And il teased he tell tales his woe.
If anything. my dog puts me to shame,
joyful and glad Is his service to me,
Perhaps resent when he's not to blame.
For he is a Christian as near as can be.
His colors seal brown. with big yellow eyes.
Long silky ears to his head on each side,
With mud on his feet he fresco,s unWtss,
We're a school boy such fun to abide!
He will not go into water, my dog.
Nor point in the woods for a shot,
Sometimes he will cross an old log
For BRIDGE in a shoal water spot.
He has his faults and we none. l pray?
He knows when to run and to drive
One day when the cattle went stray
We called the dog to be smart and alive.
We praised him to duty, "a g6ody old man."
He came not, and found not, was he.
He had hid underneath a pile OF rattan
His humble repentance brought forgiveness
most free.
He sticks to- and makes up In his nature
His spirits the noblest perhaps of us two.
His fidelity and devotion In unstinted meas
ure
No being possesses to greater bestow.
II in the thick bushes same dark night alone
He drags himself off to die there unseen.
Our vigil shall be like the priests that be-
moan.
