Judge Russell Mann, ex-County
Judge of Bourbon, Confederate solider
and prominent lawyer.died at his home
on Pleasant street in this city yester
day afternoon at 1 :30 o'clock after an
illness of several weeks of general tde
bility. About five weeks ago Judge Mann
suffered an attack and has since been
confined to his bed, although previous
to that time he had a slight illness
which confined him to his room for
about a wetk, the direct cause being
rheumatism from which he had been a
constant sufferer for a number of
years.
At the opening of the Civil War
Judge Mann entered the service of the
Confederate army enlisting in Com
pany C, Ninth Kenhtucky, in the
company cf Capt. Ed Taylor, and serv
ed in the command of General John H.
Morgan. In this company he partici-
j pated in all the principal events and
campaigns of General Morgan, up to
the time the intrepid cavalry leader
started7 with his command on the Ohio
raid, when the company under Col. W.
C. P. Breckinridge was transferred to
the command of General Wheeler.
Judge Mann was a native of Nicho
las coumy, but early in life moved
with his parents to Millersburg, where
they resided for a number of years.
Prior to his removal to Paris he resid
ed on a farm and engaged in the pur
suit of agriculture. He began the
practice of law and frst. served this
county inlthe capacity of County Attor
ney.
On September 26, 18SS, the Bourbon
Fiscal Court by a unanimous vote
elected him to the office of County
Judge to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the death of Judge Matt Turney, and
served until August 1889 when he was
nominated by the Democratic party
and elected for a term of four years.
In 1894 he was a candidate for re-elec
tion but was defeated in the regular
election by Judge H. C. Howard, who
succeeded him in January 1895.
Under the appointent of Governor J.
C. W. Beckham Judge Mann was made
Master Commissioner of the Bourbon
Circuit Court on June 28, 1905, which
office he held until the time of his
death. He was a prominent member
of the Bourbon bar and one of the best
known attorneys of Central Kentucky.
Until his late illness he has always
taken an active part in the affairs of
the Confederate Veterans Associ
ation, of which he was a member. He
is survived by his wife, who before
marriage was Miss Kate Hutchcraft.

May Be Wanted In Atlanta
Murder.
Thomas Woods, colored, alias f Harry
Matthews, alias Harry Stewart, was
arrested and landed in jail Monday
night by ratrolman i? red Link, on a
charge of robbery, and according to in
formation may be a fugitive from
Atlanta. Ga.. wanted in that city for
murder.
The arrest of Woods came about
after a week of clever work on the
nart of Patrolman Link,' who has been
on the close lookout for a number of
thieves that have teen opeiating in
this city. Woods, it is beileved, is at
the head of an organized banc1 that
have centered their opreations on the
groceries and othei stores in Paris,
and have succeeded in making away
with a large amount of goods.
A few weeks Hgo the News publish'
ed an account 01 a very Doid and suc
cessful scheme on the part of the
negroes in tha theft of goods from
various grocery stores and when the
matter was reported to the police
Patrolman Link went to work on the
case. Sunday night he met Woods on
the street and on being unable to give
a satisfactory account of where he had
been during the night was told by the
ofheer to go to Ins home. This move
of the officer was for the purpose of
getting an idea of where the negro
was staying.
WGods succeeded in getting away
but on Monday night Patrolman Link
came across him again, ana on this oc
casion he was carrying a bundle. Link
followed jhim td the restaurant of
Rachel Jefferson on Eighth street,
where h arrested the negro who was
making an effort to dispose of the
package, which contained a side of
bacon, to the negress.
Wbods was employed with a construc
tion company here arid a companion
has given the information to the
officers that the negro is wanted in
Atlanta, Ga., for murder. Woods ad
mitted to the officers that he came here
from Atlanta. The local department
communicated with the police depart
ment of that city, and a reply is ex
pected at any time. It is said' a big
reward is offered for the capture of
the Atlanta murderer, and in case
VVoods should be the man wanted by
the Atlanta police, this reward will go
to Patrolman Link.
Will Smith, a negro, who it is said
has been associated with Woods and
others in their operations in Paris was
arrested' Wednesday night by Patrol
men Link and McKenney and locked
up. It is expected the remainder of
the organized band will bp run in
within the next tew days, lheir ar
rest will have the effect of breaking
no the boldest band of thieves that
ever struck- Faris.
