SHOOTING .lFFR.1T.

Ga Thursday evening we were crossing
the railroad, going no ne from Dr. Ryan
store, when we heard commo,ion in Hew.
itis saloon, and turning about, we saw two or
three men rush out al the side door, fronting
on Louise street, and Mr.. T. J. Behen running
across the street. Jus, at this moment we
saw an arm thrust out at the door and fash
Of fire and heard the report of pistol Mr..
Behen disappeared behind the depot and we
went Immediately in search Of him, found
him unhurt and learned that he and Mr.. W.
K. Adam. had got into little playful tussle.
tina, he threw Mr.. Adams down, and he. be.
ing under the influence of liquor, became
offended a, il, drew pistol and as he ran of
fired at him. Mr.. Hewitt held Adams as
long as he could and probably saved Mr. Be-
hens life Mr.. Behen was unarmed and duly
sober; hence, he acted wisely in trying to get
out Of danger. The sheriff and one Of Mr..
Adams friends got him 10 his horse, and he
mounted and rode out of town. These are the
facts the case as near as we can learn them.

LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS TO THE
LOUISIANA COMMISSION.

The letter Of instructions to the Louisiana
Commission, from Secretary Evarts, was
received by us too late for insertion in tn ;
issue, as II is very lengthy. Though il con-
tains good deal Of meaningless generalities.
it also contains some very sound ideas; takes
the position tina, Federal Interference in be-
half of one of two claimants 10 the governor
ship of State is unconstitutional. which is
sound and correct The duties CT the COM
mission are TO sound public sentiment in the
State. 10 try to bring about the settlement of
our difficulties by the courts, and If this is
inPracticable to prevail upon the legal men,
bers Of TIE Legislature to come together in
one body and declare who is Governor, and
that Cove hor will be recognized by Mr.
Hayes. In the discharge of these duties,
however, the Commission is to have nothing
to DO with examining the election returns
which we deem the worst feature Of the
instructions.
