AT the RIua Lick Dolls. Kentu,

At the Blue Lick polls, Kentucky, on
election day, difficulty occurred between
two Young men named Abbot and Della
new, in which their fathers became involv-
ed. when the elder d. struck the elder A,
with piece of lead pipe, which so enrag-
ed the son of the latter that he drew a
large Bowie knife, and thrust it twice
through Delaney's breast, the blade passing
out at his back. Delaney died almost i'm
mediately, but, while he was breathing his
last, the father of the youth snatched the
knife from his sons hand, and cut the dy
inc mans face and head until he lost all
human semblance.
