Hip Cannon at Him. Constable T. J. Hawkins of Pol- ' loksville arrived in the city yesterday morning with Hyman Brimmage, ccl lored, who was wanted by the loca authorities on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon and cerating a - great deal ot excitement at a colored festival in the northern part of the city a few weeks ago. At the time of the incident Brim mage eluded the officers and succeeded in making his escape. The officers in' nearby towns were notified to be on the lookout for the fugitive and constable Hawkins succeeded in nab bing him. Yesterday afternoon Brimmage was taken before Mayor McCarthy for a hearing on a warrant charging him with carrying a concealed weapon and being disorderly and probable cause being lound was bound over to the next term of Craven County Superior Court under a bond of S100 which he gave and was released from custody. Mr. Hawkins left New Bern return- -ing home on theafternoon train and shortly after his arrival there located cnanes spencer, another negro wanted by the local police and on a very ser ious charge, that of attacking a colored woman with a deadly weapon several weeks ago and inflicting injuries from which she died. The negro saw the officer at about the same time the latter saw him and without waiting for any parley, started running. In close pursuit was Mr. Hawkins and a friend whom he had deputized to assist in making the arrest. The negro reached the river and seeing that he wpuld be unable to make his escape in any other direction, plunged into the water and Started across to the opposite shore. Swimming, how ever, is not as speetiy as running and the negro's pursuers reached the banks of the river before he had gone far from shore. Unlimbering the "hip cannon" which he wears when perform ing his official duties, Mr. Hawkins commanded the fugitive to return to the shore at once or take the conse quences. The negro gave one frighten ed glance back and seeing the pre dicament which he was in, gladly con sented to return. Placing handcuffs on his prisoner Mr. Hawkins carried him back to PolloksviHe and reached that place in time to board the train enroute to New Bern where he turned him over to Sheriff R. B. Lane.
