A D2UsLE TRAGEDY.
iva hen Killed al Warsaw, Alabama
Vendetta on a Small Scale.

From the Macon Miss. Beacon, Of
the oath we extract the following &C
count of the Warsaw tragedy:
Certainly one Of the saddest events
occurred Thursday, at one o'clock, in
Warsaw, Alabama, that Is upon
record. 1t was the killing OF Captain
J. J. Little and Ross Bearden.
Captain Little and Cad. E. Tart had
a difficulty some ten days ago, at
which time Little struck Tart, and
to-day Captain Little rode into town
and Tart stepped out of store with a
double barrel gun, presented it at
Captain Little and told him that he
had him in his power and. would use
1t, at the same time disehargiug one
barrel loaded with buckshot, the con-
tents entering his head. He fell dead.
Tart made his escape at once.
W. I. Little, nephew of Captain
Little, came up and called for Ross
BeardOn, suppOsing him to be the
slayer of his uncle, on account of a
previous difficulty. BeardeD stepped
out of a store, and a rencounter occur
red between the two which re ulted In
the death of Bearden. Little was
slightly wounded.
Captain ]. J. Little was about fifty
five years old, and leaves a wife and
nine children. Tart Is an old man
with a large family. Both of the
others were young men. Such q
mournful exhibition OF uncontrolled
anger, attended by so tragic a result,
is rare indeed.

DENMARK, Centerville and White
