This morning at about 7:30 o’clock a row occurred just outside the city lim its at the old dancing pavilion near the fertilizer factory, in which Fred Simpson, a negro, was severely cut about the face and shoulders. Simpson and two other negroes had gone to the place presumably to gam ble, it being a favorite resort with them. But the gambling didn’t get started, the altercation occurring just beforfe they reached it, Will Robinson, one of the other negroes, beginning it by accusing Simpson of having loaded dice in his pockets. Simpson made no attempt to conceal his guilt, but naive ly explained that he didn’t intend to use them upon them, only, as he ex pressed it, “for suckers that he didn’t like.” This explanation failed to satisfy the others, and they both characterized it as a lie, punctuating their language with epithets that reflected seriously on Simpson's veracity, honesty and parentage. A scrimmage followed, and in it, though he tried valiantly to defend himself from his assailers with a rock, another rock in the hands of Sam Moore and a knife used by Robinson were too much for Simpson, and he was soon put out of the game. The negroes are comparative strang ers in Albany, and .left immediately after the fight, taking their wounded comrade with them. When last seen they were counting crossties toward Macon. They were completely gone when news of the fight reached the city. THE WEATHER. j Weather Forecast.
