Fugitive From Justice Arrested.
After being a fugitive from justice
almost a year and a half James Jones,
v anted in this city on a charge of
shooting and wounding with intent to
kill, was captured yesterday afternoon
and is in jail awaiting his examining
trial.
The capture of Jones, was brought
about through the efforts of Patrolman
Fred Link, who was the arresting
officer, and after he had gained infor
mation of the presence of the man in
this city, who has been so long sought
by tha police.
Jones was reported yesterday morn
ing to be at the home cf Mrs. Byrd on
Eighth street, and the officer went
there in search of him. However, his
efforts were without result, as Jones
was nowhere to be fund. Leavihg
the occupants of the house under the
impression that he was looking for
another party, the officer went away.
Later in tha day Patrolman Link re
turned to the place and in driving by
he saw Jones sitting on the porch.
Without displaying any intention to
arrest Jones he drove around to the
rear of the house and coming in the
rear door, took Jones into custody, al
most before he was aware the officer
was in his presence.
Jones is wanted here for the shoot
ing of Sam Custer, a negro, at the
livery stable of Martin Bros., on the
afternoon of December 9, 1910.
The shooting occurred about 4:30
o'clock in the afternoon, and is said
to have been unorovoked.
Custer, who lived at Brentsville, a
negro settlement, had disposed of a
horse to Martin Bros, the day before
and being in town Saturday went to
the stable on Eighth street, and was
seated in the office when Jones ia said
to have entered. He became abusive
and when Custer started to leave the
office, he drew his revolver and fired
three shots into his body. rT
The first shot took effect near the
rignt shoulder blade, and the force of
the shot turned him around, the second
shot entering his mouth while the
third shot struck him in the left breast
about three inches trom the heart and
passed entirely through the body.
After the shoofing, Jones, who was
unknown to any of the witnesses.made
his escaDe out Eighth Street, but an
accurate description was furnished the
police, who ascertained later his name
and place of residence and a diligent
search was made for several weeks
without result.
Sometime after the shooting Jones
was reported to have been shot to
death in a fight at a dance in Scott
county, but it later developed that the
man killed was not the one wanted
here, but a brother. The whereabouts
of the man who shot Custer remained
a mystery until the officials receivsd
IheTnformation yesterday that he was
in Paris, and which led to his arrest.
Custer remained in a serious con
dition for some time as'a result of his
wounds but finally recovered, only to
be stricken with blindness. He is a
negro of good character and is highly
respected. JThe examining trial of
Jones has been set tor Friday morning
at 10 o'clock and will be held by Squire
L. J. Fretwell, who issued the warrant
for his arrest on the night of the shoot
irig.

League Season Opens Tomorrow
Everything is in 'readiness for the
opening of the BIuk Grass League in
.this city tomorrow afternoon at White
Park, when the Bourbonites will meet
up with the Hustlers from Winchester
in the opening tilt of the seasom and
the occasion Dromises to be one of
more than ordinary interest to the lo
cal fans. From the fact that this is
the first year since Paris has been
member of the Blue Grass League
that the season has opened here, is an
assurance of a joyous welcome to the
advent of the great National sDort
Not only is the game itself to be a fea
ture. but a program incident to the
opener has been arranged and wlil oc
cupy a prominent part in the ushering
in of "the sport which by far is the
most welcomed of any.
The local management is arranging
for a gala day on the occasion of the
opening of the season tomorrow, and
they will be assisted in a marked de
gree by the citizens and base ball fans
of the city, who are desirous of mak
ing May 1. the most memorable in the
history of baseball in Paris. The
Paris High School Band, fourteen
strong has been engaged and will head
the parade m the afternoon to be
composed of the members ot the two
clubs, the officers and a long line of en
thusiastic fans from both Paris and
Winchester.
Just where the carada will be formed
has not been definitely decided upon.
but a march wil b e made to the ball
park, which it is calculated!will be in
adequated to accomodate the large
crowd that will assembletowitness the
opening struggle in the championship
race. An invitation has been extended
Mayor Hinton to make an address and
deliver the first ball, which he has ac
cepted, and will be on hand tomorrow
atternoon to launch the opening contest.
The merchants have signified their
intention'of closing their sores from
two until five o'clock in the afternoon,
to allow all employes to attend the
game which is scheduled tobe called at
3:15 o'clock. Manager Lewis is yet
undecided who he will pitch in the
opening contest as all. of the hurlers
under contract have displayed remark
able ability in the practice games,
and was not prepared last night to
give a complete line-up of the team.
Dunlap's 'injury Sunday afternoon
has upset the plans to some extent, as
it was intended to work the former
Central leaguer on the first station,
fopkin, however, will likely fill that
position.
The information was given out last
night th t Elmer Locke, who played
last year in the Mountain State
L eaeue has been signed by Paris and
will probably arrive to participate in
the opaning game. He is au infielder
and comes highly recommended.
