 Selma. sOet. 1. | Additional facts of the shooting to death yesterday of the negro highway | man in West Dallas County. reached here today, brough by A. F. Blalock, of Blalock Station, who witnessed the
 shooting of the negro. MT. Blalock says the negro desperate met his death
 at the hands of a negro who formed one of the posse trying to arrest him. The shooting occurred on the planta-
 tion of J. Craig smith. between Blalock Station and Stafford. and was witnessed
 by number of white men. Early yes-
 terday morning Jim Jones, the negro
 desperado, was discovered trying to enter the house of another negro, Wat
 son Lee, who is said to have money.
 R. l.. Watson. overseer on J. Craig
 Smiths plantation who was close by,
 was called. As Mir. Watson came up,
 the negro pulled Q pistol and taking
 deliberate aim, fired at Mir. Watson sev-
 eral times, but all of the shots went
 wido of their mark
 MT. Watson was unarmed, but he fol- lowed the negro and saw him go into
 cotton field. Mir. Watson then sent A
 negro to A. Blalock with word for
 him to come with a Winchester riac and
 to bring some other men. Several men around MT. Blalock's store secured
 Winchester rifles and hurried to the field where the desperate negro was In hiding. Here they found MT. Watson and a number of negroes. The Winches- ter rifles which the white men brought were given to the negroes. who went | into the field to search for the negro hiRhwayman. In the middle of the cotton field the negro vas found. and | theE armed negroes. with their rifles
 pointed, ordered him to hold up his | hands.
 At the command, Jim Jones quickly raised his left hand and began to slow | ly raise the right hand. in which he held a pistol. When the right hand had been raised to shooting position | two shots rang out in quick success
 sion and the negro desperado fell over dead. The shot which killed him en- tered the left cheek and passed out on
 the right side of the back of hls neau. | The shot which the negro fired just be-
 fore he was killed. entered the right hand of John Adams, one of the negroes. | At the sound of the shots, the white | men rushed up and found the negro | dead, A search of the clothing worn | bv the dead negro was made and in his pockets was found rne watch which | he had taken from the white peddler.
 whom he held up in the public road last
 Saturday.
 The negro is said to have come from
 Mobile to Dallas County about q month ago. Since then he has com
 mitted 6 number of crimes.

 day Night'a Ordinance.

Salaries for services in September will be paid to the city's employees to- morrow. The city has the money. and in fact had 1t yesterday and tho day before.
 The failure to pay salaries yesterday, as was expected, was resultant from the necessity of awaiting the passage of a formal ordinance to appropriate the money required and the impossi- bility of compelling pay-rolls of all the departments of the city's govern ment, all offices in the City Hall being chock-a block with the work of get ting out annual, quarterly and month Iy reports.
 On this account 1t was deemed ad- .visable to fix October as payday.
