West Porsr, Neb.,, June 0.—[Special to Tue Bee|—West Point has had another man shot by the city marshal. Last nigat at 11 o'clock City Marshal Alex Sims shot and Killed Josse Underwood, a hanger-on at the house of prostitution run by Maggie St Clair. Jesse Underwood. alias Jim Davis, the de- consed, was an agent in the house of prosti- tution run by Maggie St Clair, About two months ago Underwood was arrested by the marshal on the above churge, and _sccured his conviction, and sioce then Underwood hae been waiting or an opportunity to “do up the marshal.” [fderwood was contidered u bad mau on general principles, and being an exception- aily well aeveloped man, peoplo somewhat fea rd him. Last evening matters culmin- ated by Underwood and his mistress, Maggie . Glitr, making tho rounds of the saloons and making dire threats against Marshal Bims, About 11 o'clock tne couple went to their resort, when the marshal heard of their capers, and _proceeded to the huuso toarrest Underwood. A fight ensued in tho frout room in which the bunging lamp was smasted and watters upset generally. In the scramble Underwood throw the marshal down and was choking him. The marshal bas but one hand and being of slight build was not cupable of grappling with his powerful assailant. ~ Tho marshal begged Underwood to let loose his grip on his throat, that ho need not shoot Liim, but this wus his opportunity to carry out his threat of vengeauce, and he was improving it. Iho marshal saw at u glance 1t was simply # question of who would be killed first, so he ulled the triggor of his 48-calibre self-cock- ng revoluer and fired, the ball penetrating Underwood's abdomen just two inches to the right of the navel Tho ball was afterward _ found just under the skin in his back, 1t haviug gone through his body. This shot dia not phaze Underwood, but "he continued choking Marshal Sims, when Grant Neligh appeared on tho scene and dragged Undor- Wood off the murshal and out of doors. All this fightivg occurred in the front room, Once out, the fight was about to be resumed, as Underwood started again for the marshal, Sims thereupon fired another shot trom his revolver into Underwood, the ball striking him near thoheart. The latter turned back and passed through the house to the rear of the vuilding, where he fell uncon- scious and so remained until he expired. Sheriff iallen was upon tho scene immedi- ately and picked up the limp form, and to- getlier with Willlam Breitinger and your correspondent 2arried the the body into tho house upon & bed, where he expired at mid- night, just forty-five minutes after being shot. Ho never rogained consciousns Underwood's mistress, Maggio St. who was present at the shooting, went into hysterics and fainted a dozen times. In @ short while two women from another houso of prostitution came in and consoled her, and Jater on took the hysterical female to their bagaio. Jublie feeling s decidedly with City Marshal Sims, as he has boen making a good recora in keeping the inmates of the houses of illfame within proper bounds. Underwood was o young mun and a giant in physique, but was s moral leper. M. J. Hughes was immediately appointed temporary marshal and _took chargo of the 3 ed for matters generally. Sueriff James H. Gullen took churgo of the body until morning. Tho coroner’s inquest completely exoner- ated Marshall Sims for the killing, Interesting P, E, O. Session.

When he came, the first thing he did was to inquire, in a very worldly and matter- of-fact sort of way, into the financial re- sources of the organization.

Jean Bayol, who has figured as the representative of France at the court of his majesty, the king of Dahomey, says the New York Sun, furnishes us with probably the first trustworthy account that we have ever had of the famous amuzons of that mighty monarch, The entire military forces of the king amount to about 22,000 only. The amazons number 1,500. Thoy ‘are re- cruited among the daughters of the chiefs, and also among the young lady captives of his majosty. Theéir uniform consists of a jacket without sleeves, very short trousers, and a tunic, Their caps are ornamented with a piece of embroidery representing some beast or rep- tile. the crocodiie being the favorite. They are divided into two battalions under the conmand of a distinguished lady renowned in the country for her deeds of daring and her skill in killing the enemies of her sovereign. The amazons accompany the king when he goes to war, and they fight under his orders alone. Their courage is above Rruof, and thair ferocity, according to 1. Bayol, surpasses anything that can be imagined. He witnessed the human sacriflces at Abomey, and here is his de- scription of the exploit of one of the Amazons: “Lsaw a man brought in on an akoko, the baggage carrying contrivance which the negroes use in transporting their calabash or their pots of palm oil. The unfortunate man was bound and gagged, and a black cap covered his face to the nose. Two big negroes carrying this burden halted before the king, who spoke to the mingan (execut oner). The latter then asked the crowd of spectators ir it would be a good thing to sacrifice this man in the honor of the memory of the preceding monarch. The crowd responded in the aflirmative, whereupon the king declared that he would send the man to his father. The exccu- tioner then gave the doomed man al sorts of messages for the defunct king. Then + the victim was thrown upon the ground, An amazon about 20 years old advanced Dboldly toward him. "They wanted to put her to the test for she wus a new recruit and had not as yet killed anybody. With her shavp edged saber, which she held in both hands, she struck the un- fortunate messenger three blows on the neck. Then she quietly chopped of the last pieces of flesh that still held the head to the trunk, after which she care- fully wiped her snbor and retired to the ranks. The head was taken into the king’s palace and the body tossed into a trench.” 1f the French should suceeed ia cap- turing the king of Dahomey it is not im- possible that they should send him to interview his father.

Y., to forty-nine years and threo months’ confinement in Auburn prison. Perry, it will be remembered, held up a New Yorl Contral express train last February in the most approved stylo, directing the actions of its conductor and engineer and overcoming the ex- press messenger’s resistanco after o fierce duel. Then he sought to escape by seizing a locomotive and speeding away pursued by an engine-load of armed men on a parallel track. Finally, after a running auel for several miles, he took to the country roads, holding up farmers for vehicles and meals as he found use for them. Porry iylendel_\ guilty to five indict- ments, Jeducting the full amount of commutation for good behavior, the sen- tence will aggregato twenty-nine vears, four months and twenty-three days. He is 26 yeurs old now, and consequently he will be upwards of ‘65 then. It is understood that Perry, despite the andvice of counsel, refused absolutely to plead guilty until he had been as sured that about 8300 in his possession ut the time he was arrested and the whole extensive and carefully selected arsenal should remain his individual property.
