CHAMPION TALE-TELLER DEAD.
Inmate Of Aims House at Albany.
Remarkable Character.

Albany, Ca, Jan. 27.-One of the
Most remarkable characters in this
section died In the county aims house
yesterday morning. He was jeffrey
Hill, negro, who hat been a famil-
lar figure in Albany for number OF
years. He was about seventy years
old, and was chiefly remarkable for
the marvellous tales he told.
One Of these, which really had
some foundation in fact, was that
while digging we'll in Albany seve-
raj tons of earth caved in upon him,
but the cave-in opened up subter-
ranean passage, through which he
worked his way for mile or more,
finally coming out in Flint river with
hardly bruise. The old negro told
other strange stories that were moth
ing more than the fruits Of his i'm
agination.
He was probably never out of Gero-
gia in his life, yet he was Gen. Lees
body servant throughout the Civil
War, served George Washington in
the same capacity, and knew Napo-
leon Bonaparte intimately. His
picture has appeared in many North
ern magazines and periodicals, and
has been sent over the whole world
on post cards.

NEGRO SHOT WHILE RESISTING.
Made Assault on AbbeyiIe White
Man and Was Being Arrested.

Abbeville, Jan. 28.-Y Yesterday af-
ternoon negro, Harrison Smith,was
shot and badly wounded by Deputy
Sheriff Charlie Bruce, while the lat
ter was serving q warrant for his ar
rest. The wounded negro was
brought to Abbeville from the scene
of the shooting, in the Antreville sec
tion of the county, and DR.. Gambrell
took charge of him till the nature
OF the wound could be ascertained
81 Smith has a bad reputation
throughout the county Several days
ago he was charged with making an
assault on H. J. Taylor, in the upper
part of the county, and Mr.. Taylor
had a warrant sworn out for his ar
rest yesterday. When the deputy
served the warrant the negro was
standing at his wood pile, axe in
hand. W len the deputy placed him
under arrest, Smith drew back his
axe, and attempted to strike him
with the blade OF it, but the deputy
ran under it toward the negro, and
caught the force of the blow of the
handle on his shoulder. In lodging
the axe Mr.. Bruce ran behind the
negro, and just as the negro turned
toward him, he shot him in the hip,
inflicting dangerous wound, though
not necessarily fatal wound. After
being shot, the negro ran some dist
ance before the deputy could over
take him.
Smith was kept prisoner in the
office of Dr.. Gambrell last night, but
this morning he was removed to the
jail, to await trial.

j. ID. Smith, of Pendleton, Sells Bull
for One Thousand Dollars.
(Anderson Mail, 27th.)

(AnderSon Mail, 21th.)
j. d. Smith, of the Pendleton sec
ton, and one of the leading stock
raisers of the State, has sold to the
Kimball House Dairy of Atlanta, Ca,
prize Jersey bull and several fine
Jersey cows. The bull, which Is
about three years old, was sold for
$1,000, and the cows brought from
500 to $500. They have been ship
ped to the dairy farm, located near
Atlanta.
In the past few months many Of
the dairymen of the State have
bought stock from cattle raisers in
the Pendleton section of the county,
and it has now become known that
from here come some Of the finest
Jerseys and other good dairy breeds
to be found anywhere in the country.
The cows just sold by Mr.. Smith
were beauties.
Prof. j. E. Dorman, a government
dairy expert, located at Clemson, in
talking Of these sales, said that it
shows theN great advantages offered
in South Carolina for cattle raising
and dairying. Everything is most
admirably suited for the business,
and there is great profit to be
made from it when properly con-
Quoted.

NEW DRAIN DITCH
 CITYS WASTE WATER
It Is of Filing and Will Be a Great
 Improvement Over the Old One.

Marshal Brown has a force of a couple of dozen men at work putting in drain ditch for the city's waste irrigation water. The drain will ex- tend from the west end of Fifth street, north to the river, a distance of 1900 feet. This drain consists of tiling, on an average of three feet below the surface of the ground It Is of suf- ficient size to carry all the waste ir- rigation water and will answer the same purpose during wet weather Heretofore the city has used for this purpose a drain ditch across the rail- road that has been maintained at con- siderable expense. It required clean ing several times each year and worse yet, constantly had in it stagnant water that made the finest kind of breeding place for mosquitoes. This new drain ditch, being always covered, will never require cleaning and will always be dry, except when water is being run through 1t. Hence, mosquitoes will not have a chance to breed there, and 1t will be much more satisfactory and cheaper in the long run. The initial expense is considerable, but once it is completed that puts an end to it, and it will probably last a life time. The tiling alone cost s776, and the expense of placing it will increase the total cost to nearly a thousand dollars.

YOUTHFUL BURGLAR
 CAUGHT WITH GOODS THE VICTIM OF AN UNFORTUN- ATE CIRCUMSTANCE
He Had Been Making a Systematic
 Raid on Harry lukin's Store.

A youthful burglar was run to ground
 by Constable Estrada and Harry Lu- kin yesterday. but he was treated len
 iently and given a chance to reform, upon the promise of his future good behavior.
 The young mans operations have extended over period of a couple of weeks About that long ago, upon go- ing to his store in East Tempe one morning, MT. Lukin discovered that one of the windows had been broken. Missing nothing from the store he re- garded it as an accident of some sort replaced the broken pane and thought nothing more of it. Afew days later it happened again; this looked sus- picious, but again the window was re- paired. The third time it occurred MT Lukin concluded that the incident was deserving of some attention and for a few nights he slept in the store. Moth ing happened, however, but he inform ed the. officers of the occurrence, and also spoke of it to some of the neigh DOTS, asking them to keep an eye on the store during the early morning hours. Yesterday morning Mrs. Han son, who lives nearby, noticed a boy near the window about day light. She sent word to MT. Lukin and he in turn notified the constable. The officer gave chase to the lad and after a short run managed to capture him. He was locked up. in jail for a little while and then taken before Justice Carr. The dig nity of the law impressed him to some extent, and he broke down and con- fessed his sins. According to his story he had been the victim of an unfor- tunate accident. In using a sling shot he had accidentally broken the window the first time. The temptation to en- ter was too strong to be resisted, and he got a handful of candy. It was a little easier to break in the second time and he took more candy and fruit The third time he took some of his friends into lis confidence and fed them too The fourth and last time he was pre- pared to take still more, for he car ried with him a sack He said that he had cOntented himself with taking fruit and candy. and in view of the fact that he was too youthful, being hut twelve and small for his age, to come under the jurisdiction of the jus tice court no complaint was filed against him, his father agreeing to make satisfactory remuneration for all the goods stolen. After being given a severe lecture by Marshal Brown, and being warned that another break from the path of virtue would land him in the reform school, he was discharged He is the son of a hard working Mexi- can and is not regarded as a bad boy by anE means. He was merely the victim of an unfortunate circumstance.

GOVERNORS VISIT
 EXPECTED TODAY HE WILL BE A CALLER AT THE
 NORMAL.
It Will Mark His Last Official Visit to
 the Institution.

Today will be one of more than pass ing importance at the normal. as iL will mark what will probably be the last official visit of Governor J. H. Kibbey. The governor has always been a staunch friend of the normal school. and his visits are always welcomed and enjoyed. Today he will be present for little while to pay a farewell visit in his official capacity. though it is not for a moment supposed that it will be his last visit there. In fact, it is ex- pected that after being relieved of the press of official duties, his visits will be more frequent.
 Under the caption "The New Gov ernor," the Student of last week says:
 Time works changes and not many classes get through the Normal with out a change of officials all over the country. Governor Kibbey is about to step down, and a new name will be written as our chief executive. It will be hard to find another to fill Gov ernor Kibbey's place in our esteem, but the Prescott girls assure us that Judge Sloan is the man to win us Much as we regret losing an old friend oAiiSidiiS' Sel we trust ne may OIlen partake of our hospitality unofficially; and we stand ready to extend our hearty support to the new governor, our fondest hope being that he will look on the Normal with the same fra ternal pride that his predecessor has come to make us feel.
 Governor Kibbey has made an hon orable figure in Arizona's history; Judge Sloan comes to the governors chair supported by the confidence of the entire territory. Men change places but the line of our destiny points for ward.
