nFat,xn McGlnnia shot.

This morning Fatty McGinnis was
shot at LindemaHn's saloon On Second
street, Ayres' block, by Jas. A. Dreamer
under the following circumstances;
Creamer came up on the Phil AlIin this
morning from Helena, Arkansas, with
Sheriff Robinson, who was taking some
.conyicts to the Little Rock penitentiary.
He was at Lindemann's this morning
eating breakfast, when McGinnis, who
was intoxicated, got into a controversy
with him, and reaching back threatened
to kill him. Creamer drew his pistol
and shot McGinnis, the ball entering
the shoulder, near the collar bone,
and lodging in the back. McGinnis fell,
e%xclaiming: II am gonel' evidently
intending to leave a few memorable last
words to posterity. Dreamer snapped
his pistol three times at McGinnis, but
the weapon would not go off, and thus a
a bad citizen was retained in the com
munity. McGinnis got up, went out,
secured a pistol and dourished it around
for some time. Both parties were ar
rested and the Recorder placed Creaner
under a bond of $1,000. McGinnis is
not dangerously hurt, and will live to
stop another bullet. M

noticeable Of which were those of Phelps
and Shanks, General Butler called the
previous question. In the course of his
speech, Shanks caused the equal rights
plank Of the Democratic platform Of
1872 to be read, which created a burst Of
laughter all over the house, which was
again renewed when be announced that
he would offer it as a preamble to the
bill. Butler accepted the substitute, and
the bill is nov in that shape before the
House, with one hour for debate, fifteen
minutes Of which has been given to Gen.

A French soldier.

From the New York Sun, 18th ult.
John Ferran, a volunteer in the French
army under Napoleon, later a volunteer
in the wal of 1872, died al his home in
this city on Wednesday. Mr.. Ferran
was born in Bordeaux, France, and be-
longed to a wealthy and distinguished
family, One of his brothers was at one
time President of the Chamber of Dep.
uties, and another was an officer of high
rank in the French army. Ferran, when
only twenty years old, enlisted with his
brother and served until the abdication Of
Napoleon /, in 1914. Then, more with a
view OF continuing the fight with the
English than of assisting the Americans,
he, with other French soldiers, purchased
a briS and sailed for this country. His
family opposed his plans and would have
prevented his coming if possible. Their
precautions were so extreme that Ferran
was obliged to conceal himself in a hogs.
heal TO make his escape from the main.
land to the brig. The vessel was over.
hauled in Chesapeake Bay by an English
man OF war, and Ferran, with his com.
panions, was compelled to desert her
and join the land forces of tho Ameri.
cans.
Ferran fought in the battle Of Bladens.
burg and elsewhere until the close Of the
war, when he settled for a short time in
Baltimore. In 1918 he visited Joseph
Bonaparte at the latter's home in Bor-
dentown, N. j., and was received by him
with marked consideration. Then he
came to this city, and established him.
self in the neighborhood where he died
in the upper part Of the Ninth ward,
which was then known as Greenwich
village.
