LAST Monday morning, just as the
northward bound mail train got To
Rcdus' mill, four miles below this
place, n rail broke, throwing the
baggage car ON lis side, aud turning
the second class, ladies coach and
sleeping car at angles with each 9TH
er across the track, making n fearful
wreck Of the train, but seriously in
juring no one. The baggage master
had his arm and hand painfully
bruised and cut, and DIR. T.. A. Rowan
was bruised about the hip. A few
others received very slight bruises.
IL is a mystery how these railroad
trains can so smash up without kill
ing everybody on board.

VIZ learn that Mr.. r. n. Sumrall,
living about eight miles west OF Crys-
tai Springs, was shot and PROBABLY
killed by his son-a boy about four
teen years Of age-on Monday last.
II seems that Mr.. Sumrall was cor.
rccting the hoy for some misdemeaa-
or, when he deliberately drew a pis-
tol and shot his father through the
head. The last news We had from
Mr.. Sumrall was that he was in a
dying condition, and by this time has
probably breathed his last. We are
not in favor Of lynch law, but in this
instance we think that Just and
speedy punishment should be meted
out 10 this unnatural son
