Augusta, Aug. 7.-Engineer E. l..
Jackson, in charge of a shifter in the
Georgia Railroad yard, shot and fatal
ly wounded a negro by the name of
Jim Harris, just before IL o'clock to-
night. The bullet struck Harris below
the right eye, and entered the
brain. The hospital physicians
say there is no hope of saw
ing his life. Jackson caused the
arrest of negro boy, some kin to Har-
rls, earlier in the night, on a charge
of throwing a rock into his engine cab
This angered Harris, and he vilely
cursed Engineer jackson, making a
motion towards his hip pocket as If to
draw a pistol Jackson was the quick
est in the use of his pistol. Jackson
walked over to the Union Depot and
surrendered to the police on duty.
