POLICE THIM NEERO HBO asslayer is wit In Henry Brown, a negro who this morning confessed to killing Eva Green in Pittsburg la .t November, the Atlanta detective department again be lieves it has captured the man respon sible for the majority of tlie “Jack-the- Ripper” crimes last year. Brown is 35 years old. He was cap tured in West End last Monday, but maintained his innocence until this morning, when the overwhelming evi dence forced a confession. Detectives Coker and Hanby, who made the arrest, believe that the other "ripper” crimes can be traced to him. Brown will be bound over tljis after noon by Recorder Broyles. Half dozen Saturday nights in suc cession last year a negro woman was found murdered by the police. Thi death usually was a slit across the throat Crimes of this nature contin ued into the winter. The number of negro women victims was more than fifteen. Peculiar circumstances marked tlie murder of each of the women and led the police to believe that a’l or most of tie crimes were committed b.\ the same person. The victim was always slashed with a knife, in each instance her shoes were removed and taken away from the scene of the tragedy, and in several vases money was left in the woman's purse, showing that robbery was not tlie object. Tlie police were led to believe that a maniac, his mind obsessed with a passion for crime, had done the work. They followed many clews, and made several arrests, but were never convinced that they had captured the mysterious "Black Jack the Ripper."

Aug 10.—The Gulls beat the Crackers here to day in the last game of the series. The Gulls began to look murderous in the opening inning. After Maloney had singled and St rar had doubled, Al O’Dell pushed out a single which scored them both. O’Dell has shoved over by far a majority of the Gulls’ runs during this series. In the third inning, a hit, a stolen base and another hit scored another run for the Gulls. Waldorf was ejected from the game in the fifth inning for protesting some of Umpire Stockdale’s decisions. Wolfe, just recalled from Albany, was sent to bat, hut produced nothing but a pop-up to the box. Becker went in the box for the Crackers in the sixth, and the Gulls pounced on him at once, hammering out four hits, and, being aided by a wild heave, a pass or two, and a low throw, they garnered , five runs—and the game: if they hadn’t i already garnered it. Because of the fact that both teams were due for an early getaway, the game got under way nearly an hour ear lier than usual, and was scheduled to close on even innings arounds 4:40. THE GAME.
