NEGRO RlDDLED WITH BULLETS
Sheriff Defends Himself From As-
sassln's Shots.

Parties from Ellaville in Americas
yesterday morning recited the particu-
lars of a deadly combat occurring in
the early morning between Sheriff
Lumpkin and negro whose arrest
the officer had attempted-and eff
fected, With his deputy, Sheriff Lump
kin, it is said, entered a house where
the negro was in hiding. From his
place of con cealment the negro fired four
times with revolver point blank at
the officer, though fortunately his aim
was poor and each bullet missed its
human target. IN the meanwhile
Sheriff Lumpkin, who was not expect
ing an attack, got his own pistol going
in good style; nor did the bullets miss,
Each one lodged in the carcass of his
would-be murderer, who fell at the
first fire. The circumstances were
somewhat like those wherein Marshal
Carter of Richland was killed recently
in an unexpected attack upon part of
the prisoner he sought to arrest. The
negro shot by Sheriff Lumpkin was
wanted at Scale, Ala.

NEED Of SCHOOL IS
PUT TO COUNCIL
Bond Issue of $4,000 Urged
Therefor
COUNCIL REFER TO COMMITTEE
citiz ems VIII Prob ably Vote on School
Sends and Rattle alton of Councils
Action in Electric franchise Matter
at an Early Date

1t is altogether probable that citizens
of Americas will be called upon TO de-
termine the ratification of the action of
council upon electric franchise and the
proposed issue of S25, 900 of bonds for
public school building upon the same
date, should the council desire to so
order.
Both elections are pending, and il
may be deemed desirable to decide
both issues at the same time
At the meeting of council Thursday
night committee from the board of
education presented the resolutions of
that body relative to proposed bond is
sue for another school building.
This committee, through Mr.. W. F.
Wallis, strongly urged the pressing ne
| cessity for another school building, re-
citing the fact that many pupils have
been turned away quite recently be-
cause there was no room for them in
the schools, a condition deplored.
The board of education suggests as a
remedy the erection of new and mod
ern building at a cost of S25, 900, to be
used in connection with the present
building and affording ample room.
The matter was referred by council
to The committee on education for in
yestigation and report at The next
meeting of that body two weeks hence.
There is no doubt as to the ultimate
result OF this proposition, and Americas
will get the new building.
At the same time the scho oil bond
| issue is voted upon, citizens of Ameri-
Gus will also vote for or against the
ratification of the action of the council
in accepting the proposition of Mr. w.
\. Dodson and associates as to electric
franchises, most important question
| for Americas.
| This proposition, carrying with it the
installation of great electric power
plant, street lighting and pumping of
water for a period of years. together
with the building and operation of an
electric street railway, is the most
favorable one that was ever offered to
| Americas.
The proposition is thoroughly under
stood, its importance in the material
advancement of Americas is duly
appreciated, and the action of council
in the premises will be ratified.
