D George was arraigned before Justice John J. Fowler yestetday afternoon, charged with assaulting "Cbucky" Sampson, colored, with a deadly weapon, and was bound over to the next term of the Criminal Court in the sum of 850 for his appearance there. The time of the alleged assault dates back to last Sunday afternoon, when Po liceman George (as told in the Star) at tempted to arrest "Cbucky" Sampson, as Sampson was present when John Faircloth, colored, stabbed Walter Banks, alio colored, so seriously at tbe earner of Front and Princess streets about two weeks ago. Sampson, how ever, made his escape and Policeman George shot at him. Upon trial yesterday tbe Srate proved by different witnesses that last Sunday afternoon, near Front street market, tbat Policeman George caught Sampson, but let him loose, and that the policeman pointed a pistol at him; tbat policeman George made the remark that if he saw Sampson again tbat he would shoot him, and tbat later the policeman saw Sampson on Surry street. Sampson ran and tbe policeman shot directly at bim, the bullet from the pistol striking the ground near the two men and ahead of Sampson. Policeman George stated tbat he never tried to hit Sampson, but only shot to frighten bim. After hearing the evidence Justice Fowler announced his decision as above and adjourned court, wnereupon police man George at once arrested Sampson and carried him to tbe guard house and locked him up. The charge upon which Sampion is being held is for assaulting a countryman several weeks ago. A RARE MUSICAL TREAT. At the Opsra Honaa To mcrrcw alfbt Arnold-Wellt i-layera at Popular Price.
