close to the left lower end Of the ster-
mum and above the ensiform carti-'

Newsom, Childress and others were
present, and expressed the opinion
that the wound Ia fatal. Morphine
was administered, and the patient be-
came more quiet. He wsa- vomiting

-, PUBLIC OPINION
seems 10 agree as to the fact that .
young man NAMED overton was the
| one that fired the shot thai wounded
Reynolds, and all concur In saying
that 0verton acted with great cool
ness. He has q wound on his face,
which some say was caused by bul.

from branch OF tree, while he was
crowding through q brush fence. Mr..
Overton Ia relative OF an old citizen

IN town on business with Mr.. Tomp-
kins. Reynolds used five.barrel cart
ridge revolver, calibre "a. rim fire.
He put several loads In II as he ran.
There ives rumor that another man
was shot In the arm, and ran up Jacks
son street, but We could not trace Il 70
any reliable source.
Considerable feeling exists among
our German citizens, but We hope that
no demonstrations will be made. Mr..
Long was an old citizen, and had mn.
merous friends. He was Swiss BY
