A NEW aYMNAsTIc CLUB.

Steps have been taken to organize a
gymnastic club for the benefit of the
young men on this side of the river,
the domicile of which will be st. Mary 8
Hall.
A preliminary meeting was held on
last Saturday night for the purpose of
laying foundation for the final or
ganization of the club.
Jno. T. Olsen acted as temporary
chairman and w. r. Durand as secre-
tary. About twenty-five young men
were present and about as many other
applications were received. Discussions
as to organization of the club were
heard, which resulted in the appoint
ment of several committees.
Most important amongst these were
the Constitution, Bylaws and Rules
Committee; the Donation Committee,
with R. P. Nolan as chairman, and the
Membership Committee, with z. Nc
Givney as chairman; all of which were
instructed to report at the next meet
ing.
1t is planned that this club have a
complete gymnasium for the develop
ment of the young men of Algiers as
athletes, also library for the use of
those preferring reading.
The next meeting will be held this
Thursday night at 1880 p. m, to
which all persons interested are re-
quested to attend. Several important
matters will be taken up and it is hoped
that the final organization will be COM
pleted. Officers will be elected at to-
nights meeting and the Constitution,
Bylaws and Rules will be submitted.

BRAVERY OF RoUssEIL AND BEN.
CERT.

Too much cannot be said about the
bravery of both Corporal Roussell and
Sergeant Bengert. 1t is almost i'm
possible to find out by evidence or
statement of any kind as to which of
the two really caused the death of this
wild brute. Evidence seems to be IA
yorable that Officer Roussell fired the
first shot at the negro, striking him in
the abdomen, while Officer Bengert, on
very good authority, clinched the ne
gro and with his foot tripped him and
at that time shot him several times in
the head. Corporal Roussell, whose
Winchester rife failed to explode at a
most critical moment, was left de-
fenseless before this enraged maniac
and there was but one avenue of de-
Tense left for him and that was in
personal combat with the negro OFF,
Ger Lecoste, who received the fatal
bullet wound in the head, and no doubt
by the time this paper comes to press
will be dead, has also received praise
from the eye witnesses of the affair
for the fearless manner in which he as
sisted his fellow officers. Corporal
Roussell, who was taken to the Charity
Hospital, is doing well, he having re-
ceived two bullet wounds, neither of
which will prove fatal, unless some
complications arise. The two white
men on the ferry who were severely
beaten by the negro brute were treat
ed at the hospital for slight facial
bruises and were discharged at once.
Their names are Joseph Spencer, No.

NEGRO BRUTE RUNS MAD.
Shoots at Passengers on Ferry Josie
Shoots two Police Officers
and is Killed.
Women and Children Terror Stricken i'm Stampede
for Safety-Sergeant Bengert and Corporal
Roussell Killed Brute Negro Was Shot
Many Times.

One of the most exciting scenes that
ever took place here was enacted on
Wednesday morning on the ferry boat
Josie, when an unknown negro, armed
with three or four pistols and a rifle,
with belt and pockets full of ammu-
milton, terrorized the passengers on
the boat while In midstream. He shot
at every one he could see running
from one side of the boat to the other
and firing at anything, anybody and
Everybody. So crazed was this maniac
that after he had emptied the contents
of his pistol, he would go into his peck
cts and again fill the chambers of his
pistols and start firing again. The
boat was in midstream when the brute
started the trouble, and it is a miracle
that none of the passengers were kill
ed. On reaching the ferry wharf the
brute ran up the approach firing right
and left. The pilot of the boat gave
the alarm by blasts from his whistle
and soon the officers were on the
scene in their efforts to capture the
bloodthirsty black. The story of the
affair is best told by statements of
those who were eye witnesses to the
affair.
Luke Gillen, of Eliza and Seguin
streets, who was on the boat at the
time, gave the following version of
the affair. His statements were cor
roborated by Contractor T. B. Brown,
who was with Mr.. Gillen at the time
Of the trouble, seated in the stern of
the boat. Mr.. Gillen stated:
"Mr. Brown and l were seated in
the rear of the boat when We noticed
negro sitting there who got into an
argument with white man. The
white man called the negro's attention
to his pistols showing, and told him
that he would get into trouble. The
negro became very insulting at once
and said he would kill any white s.
of b who interfered with him. He
started for the white man and struck
him in the face with his revolver. An
other white man offered assistance and
he also was struck on the head and in
jured. Both white men were unknown
to either Brown or l. After the negro
broke away from the two men he start
ed to open fire on men, women and
children on the boat The negro
would run from one side of the boat
to the other and would shoot as often
as he saw any of the passengers. The
passengers on the boat were terror
stricken. Women and children were
screaming and crowding each other to
finI places Of safety. Some of the
women took shelter in the hold of the
boat, while others were kept rushing
from one side of the boat to the other.
After the boat had landed the negro
rushed up tn gang-plank and as he did
he shot at every one he saw. 1 saw
Sergeant George Bengert rush to the
negro and grab him around the body
