Shooting has of late become contagious,
but we trust it will not reach the proper
tions Of an epidemic Last week we chron-
icled the shooting through a window from

shooting of young man from second
story window to the alley below, to avoid
being caught by the master of the house at
the point of a six-shooter, in bedroom
with the servant-girl at the very unseas0n-
able hour Of o'clock in the morning. The
denoument of the affair created quite q
buzz on our streets yesterday, and the end
: is not yet. Later it is rumored that our
gay Lothario donned his best and with his
budding, blashing Josie, started for George
town. the County seat, to procure the
license. and make the only reparation now
in his power for the evil he had done. The
community gave vent to "Cy" OF relief
when they saw what they hoped 1t would
be. the happy termination OF rather ques-
tionabfe beginning.
