FRANKFORT, KENTUCKY.
A Shooting and Cutting SCraDe on the
Streets.

FRANKFORT, May 14.-A difficulty
occurred here at 1:3O o'clock between
DR.. W. H. Hall, prominent druggist,
and j. NJ. Stephens, a butcher, in
which Hall was stabbed in four places
dangerously, and Stephens received a
pistol shot through the clothing. The
origin of the difficulty is not known.
Mr.. Hall met Mr.. Stephens on the
street, drew pistol and fired, when
Mr.. Stephens wrenched the weapon
out of his hand and stabbed him four
times with a knife. Mr.. Stephens
could have killed Mr.. Hall with his
own pistol, but after disarming him
stepped back several PAGES and waited
till he saw the sheriff coming down
the street, when he called to him to
come and arrest him, and gave himself
up. Mr.. Hall was taken to the Office
of DR.. Duvall, and now lies there in q
critical condition.
