The Christiqn Observer, published at
Louisville, Kentucky, in the interests
Of the Presbyterian church, is, in fact
and in truth, a first class weekly. AS
family and religious newspaper It
has no superior in the South There
is no paper In Kentucky, save possibly
the Coure,aJounai, having n larger
circulation, nor whose columns are
more valuable toadvertisers. The OBJ
se,ver Is almost venerable in its an
tiquity, dating back tp lsl3-rsome
sixty-three years. In many families It
is being read by the second and third
generations. The paper will be sent
to any address on trial, for one year,

that Griswold did come near stealing
everything worth having in this road.

right to steal not to have been fa-
miliar with ways that are dark and
tricks that are vain.

THE Central Railroad is sowing its
advertisements broadcast over the

Dallas, the modern prodigy, the
growth of which Is real, yet seems
myth.llke; city which four years
ago was a county sent, with no other
aud population OF but
i,560, now counts its 1000 or more IN
Such percentage OF In.
crease has scarcely a parallel, and is OF
Itself voucher for the intelligence,
enterprise and industry Of its popula-
tion. AS an interior commercial point
II has no equal within the State. Al
though the growth of this city has
been almost Without precedent, Its
people have not lost sight OF those CIV.
ilizing Institutions, churches and
schouls These have grownwith other
enterprises, aud their advantages are
not dlsregarded. 4 tttk 3.

INDEMNITY
The Black Hills Duel.

The Black Hills Pioneer Of the 22d
gives the following account Of the
duel at Crook City, between Moore
and Shannon, in which the latter was
instantly killed:
James Shannon and Moore, lately
from the Missouri river, at or in the
vicinity Of Standing Rock, quarreled
about some money matters-Shannon
as we hear the particulars, demanding
$50 from Moore, and being refused
when Shannon assaulted Thos. Moore.
Moore said he "could not fight that
way" when Shannon asked him If he
was "hccled." He answered that he
was not, but soon could be, when
Shannon said to him, eco aud heel
yourself" Moore accordingly, went
and got his rifle, aud came back, find
ing Shannon armed with revolver.
Moore asked Shannon if he WAS ready,
aud Shannon asked for time to get
his rifle, which was granted. When
Shannon returned he again asked
Moore if he was ready, but received
no answer he once more asked, HE
question, and received no answer;
but Shannon brought his rife into
firing position. as also did Moore, and
both fired. The shots were almost
simultaneous, and Shannon dropped
dead, shot through the heart. Shan
non made good slime shot," but his
aim was too high, the bullet passing
closely over his antagonists head.
! A meeting Of the citizens and
miners Of Crook City was at once as
sembIed, and n special sheriff and
coroner were appointed-Dr. Jen-
nings. formerly Of Bismarck, acting
as coroner. A jury of twelve men
was then summon and sworn by the
coroner "to render true verdict &C.
cording to the evidence" The ,testi-
mony Of f.ur or five witnesses was
reduced to writing, when the case
was given to the jury After short
dchlberation they brought in verdict
of sjus.i6able homicide. y And SO
ended Crook City, <hrst tragedy. The
verdict, we are assured, gives univer-
sal satisfaction. The victim was
known to be albad man, havipg fire.

fairs, and it is SAID he stabbed two
soldiers to death in Bismarck. Moore
