away. Bowen stood on the defensive,
drew bis Sheath-knife and struck Davis
| with it in the breast. Davis lived nine
days after receiving this wound and.
according to BOwen's statement, pro-
tested, upon his death-bed, against any
proceedings against him. The pris-
oner says that up to the night when
this affray occurred he and Davis had
been friends. and that they had served

A HoAx.-The alarm rs 10 counter
felt Mercantile Library Git Concer,
tickets being in circulation, Is without
foundation. 1t had its origin in 4
wretched little hoax over q defaced
ticket, which. OIL being presented at
the office Of the agents. was pronounced
genuine. The method of Identification
adopted by the agents Of the Library
absolutely p~recludes the possibility OF
any false tickets being paid, and the
tickets themselves r by no means SO
easy to counterfeit rs to enable swim
oilers to defraud the public. Most COM
| plete arrangements have been made
from the first to checkmate counter
feiting, and small apprehension Is felt
Of any attempt ut it. One hundred
thousand tickets were sold and paid for
in twenty-one working days.
