Tribute to Colored Soldiers.

A tribute to the work Of the coll
ored soldiers in France was paid by
Judge Terrell of the Municipal Court
of Washington, in an address in a
Y M. C. A. hut. He said: Europe
seems to have been given a bad inn
preston of the American black man.
This impression could have been re-
moved only by the presence Of the
black man himself-he was there!
All honor, all glory to the colored
men who have answered the coun-
try's call and to those who could
not go, but have contributed their
all for democracy's sake-fathers,
mothers, wives and sweethearts."
Judge Terrell said that the people

come if he wished. He again ask
ed the girl to get the ring, and
she declined, and after q few more
words, she said she was tired Of
fooling with Dagoes, anyhow"
At this, he fired at the girl, the
shot entering her left hip and
stomach. He calmly extracted
the shell, reloaded the gun and
fired the second time, tearing her
right thumb from her hand. The
girl and her mother were pleading
with him not to shoot, but he took
his time extracting the shell from
his gun, put the third cartridge in
and fired his third shot, the
charge entering the neck on the
left side. He reloaded his gun
and threatened to shoot the moth
er. She implored him to go a.
way, and he left the place.
Three of the children who were
about the house ran out on the
porch. The mother could not
stop the flow Of blood pouring
from the wound, a large 2-inch
hole in the neck. She told the
children to tell some one, to 90
to neighbours to telephone for a
doctor, and to notify their father.
Ed Knott, who lives mile
from the home, was notified by
one Of the children, and he has
tened to Paul r. Bierdeman's
home, on the Brandon road,
whence he telephoned Brandon
and Jackson for physicians. He
then went for Mr.. Seaney.
Drs. Galloway and Currie, of
Jackson, lost not time in rspond-
ing to the call, but the girl was
beyond all human aid before they
were notified. The artery which
fed the brain had been severed,
and the life blood had been pour
ing from the wound for 40 min
utes. With every beat Of the
heart the blood gushed forth, pre-
senting a most pitable and dis
tressing spectacle.
After the shooting the murde-
rer started toward Jackson. When
he arrived in front of Constable
Childres' home he saw the latter
preparing to hitch his mules to a
buggy. He asked if the Consta-
BILE would take him to town in
hurry. Mr.. Childres asked what
is the matter?" And HOWE re-
peated his request to be taken to
Jackson in hurry. Mr.. Chill
dres asked, whats the matter,
you fool, did you shoot some
one"
Yes, ! have, but get me to
town as soon as you cam" was the
nhrried reply. We'll, then, you'll
go to JAIL" said Mr.. Childres. The
mule was hitched to the buggy,
and after they had entered the
HOWE told what had oc-
Cured. Mr.. Childres went back
and tie tell his wife and have her
telephone Sheriff Donnell, and
then carried the murderer to Jack,
son. They had a drive Of nearly
seven miles and they arrived in
Jackson at about A o'clock.
The Seany's have been living in
this county for about II years,
and are well known.
Sheriff Donnell went to the
scene of the murder Immediate
", but the prisoner had arrived
in the capitol city, and was safe
the bars, where he will
probably remain until court meets
here in the early part of next
year.

MURDER 1T RANKIN COUNTY
Geo. HOWE, Assyrian, Kills Miss
Anna Bell Seaney.

Aund Dell Oedncy.
George HOWE, an Assyrian, Is
years of age, yesterday afternoon
at 3 o'clock, with fiendish calm
ness, fired three shots, from a
single-barreled shot gun at Anna
Belle Seaney, aged Is, eldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Ed
Seaney, at their home two and a
quarter miles from Pearl River
bridge in Rankin county, inflict-
ing wounds resulting in her death
40 minutes later. The second and
third shots were fired as the girl
and her mother plead with the
murderer to cease shooting.
ven then the mother had to plead
with the man to keep him from
turning his death dealing weapon
upon her, as he threatened to do,
Drs. E. H. Galloway and N. r.
Currie, Of Jackson, were sum-
moned by telephone, and FASTENED
to respond, but the girl died few
moments after their arrival.
After the shooting, he walked
down the road towards the bridge,
meeting Constable Mitchell Chill
dres> in front of the latter's home,
and asked the latter to take him
to town. Childres carried him
to the police station in Jackson,
where the charge of murder was
made, SO as to hold him, and in
a few moments he was taken to,
the county jail, where he was held
for Sheriff S. D. Donnell.
The mother, scarce knowing
what to do, unable to stem the
flow Of blood, sent one OF her chill
dren to notify Ed Knox, who lived
mile away, to request him to
telephone to Brandon and Jack
son for physicians, and to notify
the girls father, who was at his
saw mill, mile and half away.
In the meantime, her daughter
was lying upon the back porch Of
their five room cottage, every beat
of her heart pumping the life
blood through the left carotid ar
terry, which had been severed by
shots from the death-dealing
gun, the third shot entering her
neck on the left side, but there
was no powder burn upon the
face, nor shot mark to tell the tale
of the awful murder, after she
was placed in a casket for burial.
The shooting was the result Of
jealousy on the part Of the muir.
derer. He had loaned the girl q
diamond ring some time ago, and
it was said he had asked her to
marry him, but she refused.
Yesterday he took his single
barreled 10-guage shot gun and
several cartridges loaded with No.
6 shot, and went hunting. At 8
o'clock he came into the backyard
Of the Seaney home. coming from
the woods. The girl and her
mother were seated on the back
porch picking chickens.
He noticed that she was not
wearing the ring, and asked her
where i Was, charging that she
had loaned it to q young man.
She said it was on the dresser iii
