STATE WITNESS

been in Pensacola for a number OF
months without any visible means of
support. although always dressing well
and seemingly having plenty of money
is to serve the next six months on the
county roads for assaulting a state
witness.
wednesday Robinson was before
the court upon the charge of vag-
rancv. The officers had summoned a
number of Witnesses for the state,
and he was convicted as charged and
sentenced to pay a fine of So and
costs. which he did, and was given his
liberty.
He had no sooner gotten out OF
trouble before he sought out one OF
the state witnesses and proceeded to
give him a sound thrashing. He das
arrested by the police and later by the
county officers, and yesterday morn
ing he went before the court upon the
charge of assaulting a witness.
The negro entered a plea OF guilty
10 the charge and was somewhat sur
prised when Judge Beggs passed
sentence OF six months at hard labor
on the county roads upon him.

ARREST
Negro Appreciated at GufpOri

Murderer of Burnham.

A negro bearing a close resemblance
to James Arofs, the murderer
of Officer Burnham, is held in jail in
GulHport, pending an investigation.
The authorities there believe they
have the right man, and have for
warded to Sheriff Van Pelt photo
graph of the negro, but this has not
yet reached here.
Immediately after the murGer
Marshal Schad telegraphed a descrip
ton of the murderer TO GulfpOrt, in
the hope of causing his arrest If he
should pass through that place or
stop there. AS Ards worked in the
turpentine camps while serving. his
time as a convict it is the opinion
that he will follow this business for
livelihood, and it is possible that he
was making for the turpentine farms
of Mississippi when his arrest was
effected.
Deputy Saunders now has in his
possession the description of the ne
gro as taken by the state when he
was sent from here. 1t shows in adj
dition to other marks that the toes
of the right foot have been mashed
off. This fact was autographed to
Gulfport yesterday afternoon in or
der that the officers might examine
ana make sure if they have the right
party, but up TO late hour last night
no reply had been received.
Correct Description.
The correct description of Ards Is
as follows
