Constable D wight Styron had another exciting time with a negro yesterday whkh however did not have the ele ments of excitement that he had a few weeks ago when two negroes took him unaware; -The affair last evening was most aggravating and shows the extent of negro nerve. - . ' .,.. A few days ago the wife 'of James Henry Bryan awore out a warrant in Justice Street's court on . her husband for assault. He knowing the action his wife had taken, kept out of sight, about. six o'clock last evening Mr. Styron saw Bryan standing near; the railroad crossing on South Front street. He wen! to the mau, read the warrant and put- him under arrest ' Bryan showed a disposition to doubt the con stable's rightto arrest him.': As Styron; and and his prisoner proceeded Bryan wanted to talk to everyone he knew and he seemed to know everyone he saw. Mr. Styron told him that he could not allow him to talk -that he must go to jail and could talk at the proper time. : 7 v This attempt to talk was repeated Cwo or three times, finally, when they had reached Mr, Draney's house Bryan went across the street to speak to two men and the constable followed him. Bryan drew his knife and started to ward Styron when the latter pulled his pistol, thinking it might intimidate the negro, he did not notice the gun, how ever, and made a lunge at the officer, and then the latter shot at him, after which he made a second lunge. Bryan made a break running through the al ley running back of the Middle street stores and Styron in hotr pursuit He shot at the fleeing man but the negro kept running and led the constable a chase over fences and across the rail road yards, . When the railroad was reached he ran up the high bank with the agility of a cat When he" Teached the track Mr. Bryan was a few feet be hind and his revolver in hand, the ne gro faced the officer for a minute and then turned and ran across the railroad trestle to James City. He seemed to have the wind and the speed of a pro fessional arinter. Constable - Styron .. followed him as long as he had hopes of catching ' him but the negroes on the bridge ga ve the fugitive ' assistance. ' Another men came on with a shot gun but it could not be used with any certainty of bring ing down the desired party. The negro is one ; of those amart alecks whom one meets every once in a while. - He has been a school teacher and has the idea that his, wisdom is all sufficient for anything that' happens. His conduct while under arrest will re sult in a more severe, punishment than the law could give for the previous of fense.

North Carolina, Fall River and other , sec tions in New England have restored the old scale of wages equal to an increase of about 10 per cent, this la regarded by many a bull argument but we see it otherwise. It only proves what po one denies that manufacturers are quite able to pay full wages but of two items of largest cost in cotton manufac turing is cotton labor. If labor prices are raised there ia correspondingly less room to advance prices of raw cotton. The crop outlook is most flattering but tho spindles continue to run and we can foresee no further material decline un til we ere closed to Iho time of count ing billeg Iut. ,. i l.f 1 ! :!.)OI)i3. i r 5 r it :: i ' I inv. 1 !.

Mr, S. G.l Roberts received a frelie this week from a man whoZporchased the Roberts homestead at Portsmouth, N. v., which he values not for anvthiiur intrinsic but for the fact that it was worn by his father, the late Mr. Den- nard W, Roberts, sixty years ago. It is an old beaver hat which was the proper thing then. The shane looks to us rather peculiar but those who re member the styles and those who have seen pictures of hats worn in that era say that this old dicer is a perfect rep resentation ot hats worn in that day. The nsn is somewhat worn off but in other respects the hat shows remarka bly good preservation and that the material was the very best It was made in England and bears the makers crest. It was found in a closet of the old homestead safely stowed away where probably it was placed many years ago. Tournament Prizes.
