Frank Jones Shot by Policeman Magee.

Frank Jones, a young white
man employed at the ice house
market, was shot Saturday night
at Kerl's stable, by Night Police
man, Hardy Magee. 1t seems
that Jones and John Mullens we're
drinking and went to the stable to
hire team, which the stable was
unable to supply because they
were all engaged. They were so
insistent and disorderly that
Policeman Magee, who was only
a short distance down the street,
was notified and requested to quiet
them. Soon after Magee arrived,
instead Of becoming orderly,
Jones, who seems to have held a
grudge against Magee, began
abusing him in the most offensive
language, and at last advanced on
him in a threatening manner with
a knife. Magee backed a few
steps, and when Jones continued
to advance, fired at him with a Al
revolver, the ball taking effect
near the collar bone and ranging
downward.
1t was thought for a day or two
that the wound would prove fatal,
but Jones is now improving and
seems to have good chance for
recovery. He came here from
Summit and bore very unsayory
reputation, having made an as
sault on Marshal ellis, of Sum
nit, short time ago.
Policeman Magee surrendered.
to Sheriff AppIewhite soon after
the shooting and was held under
a 81, 900 bond to await the result
of Jones wounds. Public senti-
ment is decidedly with Magee, as
he was in the discharge of his
official duties and acted on self de-
Tense.

First Service in New Methodist Church.

Relative to the opening of our
handsome new Methodist church,
we clip the following from the
Times-D Democrat, of Monday:
THE first service was held in the
new brick Methodist church here
today, and was quite an event in
the history of the Methodist CON
gregation and the church-going
people of the community in gen
eral. The services were presided
over by the pastor, Rev. G. w.
Crisler, to whose active efforts and
zeal is mainly due the erection of
the beautiful edifice. The initial
sermon was preached by DR.. In
man w. Cooper, president Of
Whitworth Female College, and
chairman of the church building
committee. A select choir, pre-
sided over by Mrs. Rena Jones
Wood, furnished beautiful music.
The Baptist and Presbyterian con-
gregations of the city united with
the Methodists in this special ser
vice. The church is a beautiful
and substantial brick structure,
handsomely finished in the in
terror with inclined floor, pews of
antique oak, and windows of vari-
colored cathedral glass. There
are several beautiful memorial
windows commemorative of per-
sons who have been prominently
connected with the history of the
Brookhaven Church. The build

DIR. j. G. Deupree, Dean of the
Department of Education, is here
in Che interest of the University.
This great institution of learning
continues to expand and grow in
prosperity and success. The De-
partlnent of Medicine and Educa-
tion are the latest increments,
and they give every promise of
receiving. generous patronage.
There is no need for ambitious
youth, male or female, to 60 out
side the State for education,
whether aspiring to be lawyers,
doctors, teachers, civil or electric
engineers, or literary characters.
All departments of the University
are we'll equipped and the chairs
are filled with scholars and special
lists. Write to Chancellor R. B.
Fulton, University, Miss, for
bulletins giving full particulars.
Let Mississippians be educated in
Mississippi institutions and let
everybody help in promoting the
prosperity of Mississippi.

The Cr0ps in Lincoln.

The coin crop is the best in
years. The cotton crop is an
average one, pickers are hustling
and the price is satisfactory. The
pea and hay crop was never better.
The acreage in sweet potatoes is
not as large as in some former
years, but The yield Of this sue
culent root is fine. The sugar
cane and sorghum crops are d long
way past middling, and the
prospects for q big supply of
long sweetening and hot flap
jacks loom up before the hungry
imagination with tempting as
surance.

Jim Nelson's Murderer Captured.

The Leader of last week gave a
report of an encounter Sheriff Cox
and his deputy Rudolph Garrett,
of Lawrence county, had with two
negroes named Geo. and Chas.
Pittman, of this county, who were
wanted in Lawrence county for a
misdemeanor. George, it will be
remembered, was captured on the
spot and carried to the Monticello
Jail; while Chas. resisted arrest,
fired several shots at Sheriff Fox
and made good his escape. He
came back to the farm of +. B.
Smith in Lincoln county, where
he makes his home, and Mr.. Smith
having heard of his conduct in
Lawrence and that he had shot at
the sheriff, arrested him and
brought him to Brookhayen, where
he was later turned over to the
Lawrence county authorities and
lodged in the Monticello Jail.
Since being carried to Month
cello, Sheriff Fox has had Ard
Pennington, who was with Jim
Nelson when he was murdered last
month by a negro three miles east
of Brookhaven, to take a look at
the two Pittman negroes and Pen
nington, SO it is stated, positively
identified Chas.. Pittman as the
murderer.
In due time Pittman will be
brought to Brookhaven and lodged
in Jail, unless a mob makes short
work of him in Lawrence where
the feeling against him is very
strong. The fact that he attempted
to kill Sheriff Fox intensifies this
feeling.
AS stated last week, the Pittman
brothers are VIGOROUSLY desperate
negroes.
