SHOOTING AFFRAY.
Another Probable Tragedy.


Two men named MeKinna and John
son, builders, have been for some time
past engaged in building a house on
| Dunlap street, near the head of Adams.
| Some Ill feeling was caused between
them few days ago by a matter of bus
mess, and this resulted in violent quar-
rel yesterday morning, at the new build
ing. McKinna left the building and re-
turned about one O'Clock armed with q
small Smith & NELSON'S repeater, with
which he attacked johnson, firing one
shot st him, without effect, however.
Johnson retreAted and armed himself
with q double baFreled shotgun, and
when McKInna sgain attempted to at
tack him fired on him, telling him to the
earth and completely plastering him
with buckshot-no less than twenty hav-
ing struck him.
DR.. Keller was called In, and the
wounds examined. Strange to say none
OF them are considered necessarily fatal,
or even dangerous; though with the
present warm weather a very slight
wound may produce death. No arrest
was made up to six O'Clock pm.
MEETING OF THE CONSERVATIVES
CLUB OF COLoRED MEN OF THE
FOURTH WARD AT STILLMAN HALL
A large and enthusiastic meeting Of
eolored men was held at the Stillman
Hall last night. Some three hundred
colored men we're present. Mr.. John
F. Harris, the cOIored Conservative ora
tor, delivered splendid speech Of over
two hours duration, exciting the ut
most enthusiasm in his audience. He
was followed by MarengO Johnson in a
good speech, full of sound advice to the
cnlored men. Loud calls were made for
Gen. Forrest who appeared and made
forcible address, informing the colored
men who were their best friends, and OF
the designs Of the Radicals to plunge the |
country into a war of races. He in
formed them that the Southern man
was the true friend Of the black race, and |
if the scalswags got them into |
trouble the black man would have to do |
the fighting, while the scalawag ran |
away, as usual. He advised them not to |
be seduced into joining Loyal Leagues,
or other secret societies, but to 90 to |
work and become Industrious, and vote
the Democratic ticket. When the white |
people become free, through the aid Of
the cOlored man, then all would be st
peace, and the Conservative man would |
protect them in all their rights. He |
would protect them, and every honest |
Southern man would do likewise. Cen |
Forrest spoke about an hour, and was
loudly applauded. Several other speeches
were made during the evening. Bob |
Wardlow's brass band discoursed sweet |
music, playing all the national airs.
The Colored Conservative Club may be
