CLASS A--25 BIRDS.

F~ AtSB o'clock this afternoon, Charles Moore, a white man, at the mouth of Three Mile Creek, shot and instantly killed Ed Smith, Q negro. with a shot gun. Moore ran away, but was caught within two hours by four deputy sher- ifs. Green. McCarron. Broadus and Will Powers, at his home. near the Barker Cotton Mills.
 From the evidence adduted at Coro- ner Hirschfeld's inquest. 1t appeared that Smith had been instrumental in having Moore arrested on a charge of stealing logs. This was some time ago. Smiths life had been threatened by Moore and he had been warned. Moore came upon Smith near the Louisville and Nashville bridge. and Smith asked him about the threat. Moore denied having made 1t. but went to a nearby house, secured a shotgun, came back and killed the negro.
 Gaines Fountain. for whom Smith had worked seven years, gave him an ex- ceptionally good game. Sheriff Powers said Moore had an unenviable reputa- ton, having been recently arrested for vagrancy.
 Lena, 4year~old daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Frank Cohen, while on Dauphin Street. at the corner of Cedar, just be- fore dark, was struck by a Whistler electric car and severely and perhaps fatally injured. The child stepped on the track just ahead of the car and the motorman applied his brakes and re versed. but not In time to prevent tho accident. The child was knocked to the ground and beneath the trucks before the car was brought to stop. The scalp was found to be torn off from above the left eye to the back of the head and she sustained a fracture of the skull. She was taken to a sanito- rum and given surgical treatment. A 5-year- old white boy. Joseph Mitchell. was run down by a physicians 8 buggy at the same spot where the elec- tric car accident occurred short while before. He was very painfully though not seriously injured.
 Captain Andrew Dorgan, one of the oldest pilots of the Mobile Bay Pilots Association, died last midnight. Cap tain Dorgan was one of the widest known and best beloved citizens of Mobile. He was the Nestor of the Pilots Association. He was in active service from 1851 to 1897 and then re- tired because of old age. When Far aguts fleet came up Mobile Bay.
