and killed n. L. Dukes, who, on December ~ last,
killed Captain Mutt Dukes was standing In
front OF the Jennings house when the evening
mail arrived, few minutes before 2, and he rc-
NAMED there talking TO several men, and was ap.
parently in very fine humor Presently he
started down for his mall. Mutt stood near the
entrance OF the post ONCE. When Dukes reached
the spot or got a little beyond where he stood,
Mutt opened fre on him and shot twice, hitting
him In the back, Immediately In the rear OF the
heart Dukes started on q dead run, pursued by
Mutt, who again fired three more shots, one OF
the shots taking effect 10 the back. about two
inches from the first; the fourth missed him and
the nth struck him In the left ankle as he WAS
going up the post Office steps There are two
steps. and when Dukes reached the top one ne fell
forward on his face. His body was removed 90
the same hotel where he had shot the elder Mutt
On Dukes body was found his old pistol the one
with which he killed Mutt, and hanging 20 his
experimentation IN front was dirk-knife Mutt
was at once arrested and taken 10 jail An In
quest will be held to-day.
James Mutt is 81 years OF age, and Is OF a rather
peculiar disposition. His mother has been ap.
prehensive that he would endeavor to avenge his
fathers death. few days ago he went home In
very irritable mood and said 70 his moth o.:
"MOther, can't stand this met Dukes N the
street to-day, and he laughed In my face"
