The last Sun is laden with accounts of robberies perpetrated in the city of Jackson. It seems that all the negroes without character and means of support meet there to pillage and steal. One who attempted to enter the residence of Robt. Brown, Sr., was badly wounded by a gun shot - Officer Bruce was wounded by one while attempting to arrest him.

S. H. Brazleton, of Jackson, Commits Suicide - From a private letter received in this place on Tuesday evening last, we are furnished the following concerning the sad fate of the deceased. "I suppose you have heard, ere this, of the death of Mr. S. H. Brazzleton, which was remarkably strange indeed" He left home on Saturday for Cairo. He took an overdose of Morphine, and then saturated cloth with Chloroform and spread it around his head, and killed himself in his room at a hotel in that place. No one can account for it, as his business is thought to be in a healthy state - not at all financially embarrassed as anybody knows of. -- No other developments as yet can be attained."

The Whig and Tribune, of Jackson, is again in the hands of Col. D. M. Wisdom. The contract leasing it has been canceled - it will hereafter be under the management of Col. Wisdom and his brother John, a talented young man of Purdy.

Since the above was in type, we learn that on Monday night of this week, the office of the Whig and Tribune, of Jackson, was burned. -- We are unable to learn whether it was the result of an accident, or the act of an incendiary. Col. Wisdom has been unfortunate with the office as it has been burned the second time in the last three years. He has our sympathy in his loss, and wishes that the "old paper" will again live.

Wednesday night the 4th inst., a negro woman, wife of one Gus Everhart was shot dead in the door of her cabin, near Denmark, by some person unknown. Her cabin was in the farm of Mr. John Terrill, and her husband was cropping with Alf Tyson. Several shots were fired at her, one taking effect in her bowels and passing through, causing almost instant death. The ball was evidently fired from a navy six pistol. No clue, whatever, as been found to the strange and shocking crime.

Jackson paid $1 for a street car system in 1938. Now it appesrs the city deal will turn a $5000 profit. Because the owners of the private electric utility serving thia area didnt want to be left with the trolley system after selling their other properties to the city and TVA, the street cars, tracks and so on, were thrown in for $1. When the salvage of the street railway system is completed in the spring, City Engineer, J. A. Ossell reports, "we shall have realized approxizimately $15,000 from the original investment of $1. When all costs of salvage and repairs are charged off there'll be a surplus of approximately $5,000". Except for the cars the salvage material was sold through various agents. A Cincinnati firm bought most of the cars and dismantled them. The rest now used for lunch stands, soon will be Jackson's lone reminder of her street railway system. Jackson’s population in 1930 was 22,172. The city is now served by buses. The trolley system had less than a dozen street cars.
