Tragedy Il, OlncIlita City.

The quiet little village of ounchita City
witnessed very exciting occurrence last
| Saturday, the result of which was the
| death of Mr.. w. Il. Reese ut tho hands OF
Mr.. X. w. Manning.
! Mr.. Manning has family. consisting o,
| Il wife and two children. Mr.. Reese was Il
widower, living alone in Ouachita City
For some time, it appears, Mr.. Nj. sus.
pected Reese of improper rotations with
his wife, and the result WAS Il separation
four or five months ago, Mrs. NJ. keeping
last week, and. hearing that his wife had
returned to Ouachita City from Mississippi
whittier he had carried her and tho chill
dren, went up to Ouachita City. Arriving
there, he male known to friends that his
purpose was to got his children and take
them away, saying that he would not in
terfere with any one, but intended to have
his children. Reese, hearing of this through
Mr.. Davidson to whom Manning made his
purpose known, said that before Manning
would get the children '.there would be,
war;" and that Manning must deposit SIS
in responsible hands for the children's SUP
port. This threat was told to Manning, who
was greatly affected at Reeses interven-
dangerous man, full of fire and unyieldiny.
Manning retired to IL saloon in town and
sat down in the back room. Reese came to
the front door of tho saloon, and took IL
position in the doorway, looking outward
with a deringer in his hand, his arm hang
ing down. Manning, il seems, was intorm-
cd OF Recse's movements, and very nntur-
ally inferred that Reese intended TO attack
him, if not to kill him. Leaving his sea,
in the back room, accom- pan cd by friend
with whom he had been conversing, Man
ming started out of the saloon, and walk
ing on, canc Immediately up in Recse's
roar, When TIC aimed pistol ut Recae's
head and discharged II ball into his
brain. Reese staggered, exclaimed 40,
LordH' and foil. Manning stepped up to
Reese M no lay, and discharged his pistol
second time, tho bail entering ut the inner
corner of Rcesc's lcrt eve. Reese lived y
few minutes and expired /; Manning Won:
OF to IA noighhor's and staid till Monday,
and then went to Farmcrville where he
surrendered himself for trial
TO Mr.. j. L. Swuu living near Oua,b;,a
CITY, we are indebted for the above p,rticu,
lars. Mr.. Swan informs us that public sen,
tinont fully justities Manning. His domes-
tic troubles as we'll as tho overbearipr dis
position of Reese have inclined the entire
community to sympathizo with Mr.. Man.
