been unusually gentle, when the ami
NAL scared at something and ran Oft.
1t plunged into fence just opposite
w. H. Merchants home, near the
cemetery, upYetting the runabout and
throwing the occupants out. Both
ladies were rendered unconscious for
a time, but assistance soon arrived
and they were taken to Mr., Merchants
house, and later removed to their own
homes. Mrs. Bowly had deep cut
a couple OF inches long in the back OF
her head, besides many minor cuts
and bruises. Miss Turner had her
face and mead very painfully cut, her
back wrenched, and many bruises
about her bo1y. Fortunately both

Bowly is still confined to her room by
her hurts, but Miss Turner is able to
be out. Drs. Grove and Banks rem
dered surgical attention. The runa-

Another Murder at weverton.

Another brutal murder occurred a
Weverton, Md last Saturday night
when James Ellis, or Temple, negro
with many aliases. better known al
"Nigger jim, shot and fatally wound
ed white man named Charles Gray
B. & o. fireman whose run was OIL
| the stone train between Melville, JEFF.
ferson county, and Brunswick. Gray
and his engineer, Ralph Long, were
in the bar.room of McClellan's hotel
in Weverton Saturday night, as was
also the negro.
The men asked Ellis to take a
drinkiand he made some sighting re-
mark. AS time passed on the trou-
BILE between the negro and the men
became more pronounced and finally
all the men were outside the hotel.
The negro walked from the passen-
ger station up toward the water tank
north of the depot, and Gray and
Long followed some distance behind
him, probably forty feet. Gray and
Long and the negro continued to
quarrel with each other, and finally,
without saying anything, the negro
turned and fired. The bullet, which
Was from 38-calibre revolver, struck
Gray on the inner side of the left leg,
about six or eight inches below the
hip joint. The missile passed through
the femoral artery, severing it, aud
permitting the blood to gush from
Gray's body to such an extent that In
less than half an hour he was uncon-
scious from exhaustion. He was car
ried into the hotel and DR.. Harry
Hedges was summoned from Bruins
wick. He hurried to Weverton, and
did all he could for the wounded
man, but Gray had lost so much
blood he died about one o'clock.
Ellis had kept on walking in the
darkness, and by the time the officers
reached the place he had disappear
ed.
Gray, who was 43 years old, was a
married man, living in Brunswick,
and is survived by his wife and three
children. His murder is the fifth
that has occurred in that neighbor-
hood within the past few years.
After shooting Gray, the negro
went to Harpers Ferry, thence to
Keller, AMI across 10 Bakerton, this
county, where on Monday he hired
himself to Jacob S. Moler. The Of
fcers traced him as far as Keller, but
lost the track there. They secured
Jefferson county for him, and the
search was participated in by good
many local officers and amateur de.
tectives. On Monday Messrs. Albert
and Carleton Moler, who had heard
of the crime, recognized Niger jim
as the murderer, from descriptions
that had been sent out. They got
him into the granarY on their place
and locked him in, and then notified
the sheriff of Washington county OF
their capture. They kept the negro
in the granary all night, and he con-
fessed that he had shot at the men,
though he didn't know he had killed
one Of them. Tuesday Sheriff Del.
bert went to Bakerton and arrested
Ellis and took him to Hagerstown and
lodged him in Jail. The man said
that Gray and Long had Knocked him
and that he had shot at them in sell
defense. Ellis bears bad reputation
and is said to be desperate character.
1t is believed by many that he is the
murderer of Detective Hardy, who
was killed at Weverton about a year
ago. The Messrs. Moler will get a
reward of 500 offered for his arrest.

Trouble has befallen the Shepherds
town colony OF negroes who have been
making their headquarters in Hagers-
town rather than endure the chilly
atmosphere of their native place.
The police of Hagerstown made raid
Saturday night on place kept by
Jim Wilson, who was accused of sell.
ing cocaine to the unfortunate victims
who have contracted the fearful habit
of using that insidious drug. A live
ly game of crap was going on, end
among those arrested, besides Wilson,
were Petite Ross and Sam Peterson,
also of malodorous fame in Shepherds
town. Peterson had a big revolver
on him at the time Monday morning
twelve negroes were lined no before
Justice Hoffman for trial. Wilson
got Peterson to write the following
note to Ross on a piece of cardboard ::
Don't you give me away and | won't
give you away. Both stick to the
same" The note fell into the hands
of the officers, and it didn't help the
cause of the prisoners very greatly.
Wilson pleaded guilty of keeping a
gambling house and shooting crap,
and was sentenced to two years in the
House of Correction. Petite Ross was
convicted of selling cocaine and was
given a year in Jail. Peterson was
held for trial on Wednesday for carry.
ing concealed weapons.

It was expected that the Males
would get away with the Iolanis at
"socker" yesterday afternoon. but a
close game was looked for. The crowd
was therefore greatly surprised when
the Blues were beaten by the score of
to 0, the worst defeat sustained by a
league eleven this season.
The Males were in good form and
put up a great game. The Iolanis
played as if they were stale and in the
second half showed to worse advan-
tage than in any game they have so
far played All four goals We're scored
in the second period of the game.
By their win yesterday the Males
have virtually secured the champion
ship. Even if a miracle should hap
pen and the Y. NJ. c. A We're to de-
feat them next week and if the Puma
hous win from both the Diamond
Heads and the IoIanis. the Punahous
and Males will DE tied for the cham
pionship with II points each to their
credit. The fight for second honors
promises to be most interesting.
The Punahous-Y. NJ. c. A. game
didn't amount to a great deal, but it
was more interesting from a spectacu-
lar standpoint than its predecessor.
The score was to 1 in favor of the
Punahous but their superiority was
greater than the score would indicate.
The Christians played up boldly but
the eleven is handicapped by the pres
ence of two or three players who should
not be allowed on the field till they
learn the game. There are some good
men on the team, good enough to play
with any team in the league and it is
too bad that the eleven can not be SO
rounded out that their efforts might
result in an occasional victory.
The following league games remain
to be played:
March 3-Y. NJ. C. A. VS.. Males;
Diamond Heads VS.. P. A c.
March 10-Diamond Heads VS.. Y. NJ.

(4) MALES VS.. IOLANIS CO..
FIRST HALF.

Males kicked off from the car-line
end. The Iolani forwards immediate
ly took the ball from them and work
ed it by a series of passes down in
front of the Males goal Males took
the ball to their opponents territory
a couple of times, but We're stopped by
the Iolani backs. Males at last got
a chance to shoot but the ball was
put over the line. After a spell of
play in mid-ield, Males shot again,
Carter punching out well. Males
managed TO keep the ball in Iolanis'
territory Mon Yin, despite his dimin-
