Favored Substitute.
Mr.. Watson of DGde spoke in favor
of substituting the senate resolution
as being the one most likely to pro
duce results, and moved to reconsider
the house resolutions, when a point of
order was made by Mr. Wilson of Her
naHdo. The latter made a very brief

almost severed the right ear and
badly Iacerated and bruised one side
of his face.
The officer had leaned so far over
into the buggy that when he was
knocked unconscious his body re-
manned partly in the buggy, and IN
that position he was found several
hours later by Mrs. Johnson who i'm
mediately called for a physician and
had the injuries dressed.
Motive Was Robbery.
It is believed by some that the
motive for the assault was robbery,
inasmuch as the officer had a large
amount of money IN his pocket, which
is missing, and also his revolver,
which was taken from the scabbard.
When he left the city he stopped in
the outskirts and at small store
purchased some articles to carry
with him, and in doing so displayed
a large roll of bills. There were
many negroes about the place and
they heard him remark that he
would not be back until l or ? o'clock

made by parties who had some griey-

special officer for the city for a num-
Der of years and in this capacity
made enemies among the criminal
class, who may have sought this man
ner of getting revenge and after doing
so decided to take his money and

Physicians who are attending him
are of the opinion that his condition
can be better told this morning, but

FISK oUTBATTED GIANTS.

On Wednesday at Athletic Park the
Fisk baseball team walloped the pro-
fessional Giants to the tune of 7 to 6.
At the outset the college boys were a
little nervous, but as the game pro.
crossed their nerve came to them and
they went after Mr.. Whites stalwarts
in hammer and tongs fashion.
There were some new faces on the
Giant team but taken as whole, the
team appeared to be about as strong
rs last season. Sublett, who did the
slab work for the Giants, was touched
up pretty lively, but kept his hits well
scattered. The score does not do either
him or King, the Fisk twirler, credit,
for most of the runs were due to rank
errors on the part Of the infield of
both teams. The uncertainty of things
made the game very interesting, and
even in the ninth inning a hair rails
ing rally by the Giants netted three
runs and came near winning the
game. The Fisk boys, who are only
amateurs, and the most of them very
light weight, deserve great credit for
having the nerve to tackle the profess
SIGNALS, much less leave their own
dunghill. They were very much elated
over their success, although victory
was not due to their all round playing,
but to Mr.. Kings batting, his home
run in the seventh bringing in the tai
lies that won the game.
