MAN SHOT.
A vain street Tragedy.


At nine o clock this morning the ex-
plosion Of a pistol was heard near the
Second Presbyterian church, on the
corner of Main and Beal. A white
man fell, and negro was seen running
away down Beal. The white man was
carried into Griswold's drug store near
by, and had his wound dressed. The
pistol ball entered the bowels about six
inches above the left groin, or to be more
scientific, the wound was in the left in
guinal hypogastrium, about midway of
superior spinous process of illium, and
the ball passing through
the sigmoid Texture of the colon. DR..
Marable dressed the wound, and gave
it as his opinion that it was dangerous
and probably fatal. The wounded man
spoke indistinctly, being hair-lipped, but
said his name was James Hall, and re-
sided FIVE miles below Randolph, Ten
nessee. He said he was trying to sell
the negro pistol, and that it exploded
while in the hands of the darby. The
negro was chased and was captured by
patrolman No. "a (Skinner) near Brink
ley College. He said he was a river
man and named Robert Montgomery.
He says the pistol went off accidentally.
Montgomery was locked up in the
Causey street station-house to await an
investigation before Recorder Winters
tomorrow morning.

MEssRs. KNAPP & CO., of this city, are
arranging complete timetable on the
Memphis and Charleston railroad for the
benefit Of the travelling community, and
for the beneiito of our merchants here who
see proper to take advantage Of this ex-
cellent scheme. 1t is not, as usual, a
catch-penny advertising dodge, but has
the hearty approval Of the railroad Off
Gals, and will be handled by men Of
responsibility, who will endeavor to give
the merchants a guild pro quo for all they
receive. The agent of this enterprise
will call on the merchants Immediately
and give them all a chance to take stock
in the scheme. We hope to see it full
and complete success.

To the Editor of the Ledger:
A stroll out Beal street on yesterday
carried me past the magnificent place Of
Colonel Topp. A friend with whom l
was walking, remarked that before many
years this fine property would probably
be susdivided into residence lots and
improved, which would be great ad-
vantage to the city. disagreed with
him, and argued that these grand speci-
mems of forest growth Should be pre-
served to the public, and as there is but
one way Of preserving them with GER
tainty, which is to buy the property and
make it public park, / move that it
be done, provided always, the owner is
willing TO sell and the city has the
money TO purchase. PUBLICUs.
