a GUN DED HI.
Buf Who Was Behind Inc
Weapon Deponent say
eth Not.

A brief allusion was made IN Yesterday
,norning's EXAMINER to the fact that a
negro had been shot the evening before
and at late hour was in a dying con-
dition. Being after midnight when the
reporter learned CT the affair he could
not even get good skeleton of what hap
peped. The man, however, died yesterday
morning about / o'clock. A physician
from the city went down and gave him
ND to l u. IN. all the help that medical
skill could suggest, but his case was
hopeless one. He died from buck-shot
wounds, several of which struck him in
the left arm, completely SCATTERING the
bone between the elbow and shoulder.
The balance took effect in his left side.
The traces of twelve IN all were
found. justice Evans was sum-
moned early yesterday morning
to hold an inquest, and did so III accord
ance with law. Some four or five wit
nesses, among them DR.. Joe Willis and
Capt. Jim Tinsley, neither Of whom,
however, were present until after the
shooting, was called. The testimony was
sparse and somewhat conflicting, if We
take the verdict of the jury as an iudlca-
ton. They found that the deceased came
to his death by gun-shot wounds,
but from whose hands the
Jury "are unable to agree" This
finding would seem to indicate that at
least portion of the jury were not as
well satisfied as they might be 1t has
been animated that one w. L. Burke,
who is in charge of Mr.. Shutters
farm, where the shooting was done, was
the offending party and Doll Stinson
was present at the time. There Is no
grounds upon which to base tins
however, more than that
some stock belonging to George Mason,
the dead man, had got into pasture
and killed some sheep on the part of
fhe farm which Burke was in charge Of
Burke tried to put them out and the ne
GRO objected. when Burke came to town,
got Stinson and Mr.. Slauter and the +
three took the mules ont and undertook
10 drive them to town, but Mason and
some one else took them away and
put them in another pasture. Nothing
more was seen or heard
mil Mason was snot, when the report
was at once sprung that Burke did it.
What amount of animus there may
prevail among TIE parties it is hard to
ell. but it will not do to rest suspicion
m any person on such fimsy evidence,
mt all efforts should be made to find
he guilty party and call him to proper
ccOunt.

This has certainly been disastrous
year to the cotton crop. We think
from this time that receipts will fall off
beyond all expectation Snow is even
more damaging to the crop than rain,
and the former has extended nearly
over the whole cotton belt.
The bears will have to reduce their
figures at least three or four hundred
thousand bales. 1t will hardly be Pos
sible now for the cotton crop to go
much beyond 900, 900 bales. At these
figures, and taking into consideration
the great prosperity of the country,
cotton is almost sure to COUP.
But had there been no disasters to
the present crop, there would have
been gathered six or seven millions of
bales, and consequently cotton would
have brought nothing comparatively,
and farmers would have been in n
worse condition if they had raised IA
big crop, When will the farmer learn
TO live more at home, and plant less
cotton

fresh with a warm mot hot) iron, on
which some spermacetti has been
lightly rubbed. This method preserves
perfectly their lovely tints, and gives
a wavy gloss which no other one cures
This process is very rapid aud very
agreeable, and no lady who has ever
tried the the tedious aud uncertain ex-
pertinent of pressing, will ever again
resort to it, after trying this new aud
better way.
