A gent from the rural districts, seeing a
fifteen dollar violin in the show window of
the Fast Tennessee Music House, the other
day, and being something OF fiddler"
concluded that he must have it. He &C
cordingly stepped in and asked the price
of the instrument, when he was told by
the salesman The knowing what kind Of
material he had to deal with) that it was
worth $3.50. The rural gent then wanted
10 know if he could not let him have it for
50. The clerk told him that it was
rather lower than he could take, but on a
pinch he might. Succeeding so well, the
countryman took courage, and signified
his willingness to take the violin, provided
they would give him a fine case with 1t.
The clerk told him they could not do this,
that even the bows had to be paid for cx-
ira. He then wanted to know what the
bow was worth. He was told $3.50. "ItDo

whether self-constituted avenger OF his

on record. Egner's daughter, girl of
fifteen, last August. Had she lived
afewi rs longer she would have be-
come i,Jther. Herman Shilling was
the author of her ruin. Egner, the
father, brooded over the matter. nnrsed
his wrath, aud made threats that he
would have Shilling's life for the wrong
be had done him. In company with his
son, boy of sixteen, and friend.
George Rufer, he waylaid Shilling a
night. Shilling was employed In tant
merry, and at ten O'Clock had gone into
the stable to rub the tannery horses.
Rufer hit him on the head several times
with piece of wood, and Egner stabbed
him In the bowels and legs with n four-
pronged four. This he did three or four
times. When they supposed Shilling to
be dead, the threo took up his body and

reason why the Opposition should sep
