A Horrible Affair.

On last Thursday evening a difficulty
took place at Mr.. Wagner's store, which
resulted in young man by the name of
Burleson getting his brains cut out with an
ak in the hands of MIR. John kucker
From the best information we can obtain,
the particulars are about as follows:
At the time above mentioned, young
Burleson was at the store and very drunk.
He at first had difficulty with negro
woman, whom he shot through the shoulder
and cut with a bowie knife in several
places, and shortly afrerward had row
with young Rucker, whom he attempted to
shoo5. Rucker. however, was. too quick
for him. and split his head open with an
ak. Burleson is still alive. but DR.. Scales
informs ms that it is next to impossible for
him to recover, and we expect at any time
to hear that he has breathed his last.
Rucker has not yet been taken into custody
by the officers Of the law.-NansfeI Re

50 Save the Roy.o

The fair being given by some Of the good
ladies of the city, at Grunewald Hall, for
the benefit of the destitute boys in St. Vim.
cents Home, is becoming decided success.
and the hall last night was thronged with
visitors, drawn hither by the love of sweet
charity, as its inspiration came to them
through the bright eyes of beautiful women
The energy displayed By the managers, the
insinuatug pleas of the young ladies assist
ing at the various tables, and the we'll
directed zeal of all concerned, will no doubt
result in substantial additions being made

Destructive FIRE AT BRA1NERD.

A fire at Brainerd Sunday night destroy
ed four buildings, including the Tribune Of
flee. The sufferers are VIM. Swartz, loss
$4,000; Marshall & Campbell, loss 81 1000 !;
r. L. Jones, loss $500; Russell & Wall,
loss $4,000; D. o. Preston, slight loss on
law library W: w. Hartley, slight loss in
books and records. There was no insur-
ance except in the case of Marshall& Camp
bell, who had a policy for $500. We re-
greet to learn that the I.Ibune's loss is total,
nothing of any value having been saved.
But the town would be nothing without
that paper, and the people, approaching
this, promptly raised 81 200 with which to
assist Messrs Russell & Wall in putting in
another Office, which will be done at once.
The Tribune building was owned by Mr..
A. Allen, of this city.
