There was q reunion Of the members
at the last meeting night Of johnson
Lodge, at which time several speeches
we're made for the good Of the order.
One brother, a stay-at-home one, mAde
a fine talk on the duties Of members
in their attendance on lodge meeting.
Said he was one that did not attend
very regularly, but intended doing bet
ter. 1t was an enjoyable affair. and
should be taken up by each lodge in
the city, and continue on until it be
comes a necessity, and when a self
supporting affair, the brothers would
have every meeting a reunion, There
are some 500 members in this order
here in Memphis, comprising some Of
the best citizens, but this number
should be doubled aud can be in sixty
days time, if the membership will
only try to do so.

MYSTERIOUS SHOTS

Chlld RSseusd from Death.

Last evening shortly after nine O'Clock two
saots were fired on or near the wharf, not far
from the 81. J 4mss hotel. A telephone mes.
sage was at once sent to the City Building,
and oalcer Combs was sent down. He was
met at the St. James by u stranger, who said
that solue mar he did not know had fired at
him. He had given the man no provocation,
and had no idea whGtinduCed him to shoot
at him. The stranger stood about half way
from the sidewalk 10 the Pewiky track when
he fired, and the man who told the story was
stsnding on the sidewalk near the curbstone
After tue two shots the man ran down
toward the rivar's edge. The general impreS-
sion was that the fellow that did the saoot-
lng was a colored mRn who had been trying
to pick q quarrel With anybody in the Yicini'
" earlier In the evening, and who had al
tackled Tom Parker, aud struck him
twice with a large boulder. Parker,
however, saw the shooting, and he
said the fash came out OF the alley between
the St. James and Huseman House. Another
gentleman also said the flash was at the
mouth OF the u ey, several yards from where
the man who claimed TO have been shot at
said he was standing. The shots seemed to
come from a second story window OF the
Huseman House. Appearances warranted
the suspicion that something was behind
the shooting, and that 4 false account OF 1t
was purposely given the policeman.

Large Dog.
Last evening, about 4 o'clock, a large vel
low English bulldog, belonging to Fred
Nulte, a grocer at the corner Of Cbapline and
Twenty fifth streets, broke loose from the
chain with which be is always kept fastened
In the pack yard. For teveral days tho dog,
which was an old one, had been showing
signs ofill temper, and the impression had
arisen hat he was taking the ~bydrophobia.
He was q very fierce and unmanageable
brute At best, and the members OF Nj. Mules
family were afraid to attempt to secure HIM.
Mr.. Nulte himself was up town, hut being
told OF the dogs escape upon bis return, he
went into the yard TO reclaim him. The dog
did not seem 10 object, and allowed his maE-
ter TO pat him on the head several times.
Finally, however, Mr.. Mute seized the broken
eud If the ctain, when the dog
sprang away aud caught him by the
right arm, his teeth meeting through the
flesh. He had no sooner released his hold
there than he again caught the anne arm at
another Ilace aud bit II through again. MI.
Mute struggled 10 get the mastery OF the
animal, but for a long time In vain, and he
was successfully bit through the throat,
through both lips, and through the lett arm,
each wound being badly torn and laceratsd.
At last he managed TO get his hands 10 the
Infatuated dogs mouth, and pried his jaws
apart, holding Ia this way for some minutes,
until Officer Nulte, who had been Summoned,
arrived and dispatched the brute. He did
this by placing his revolver against the dogs
forehead and blowing out his brains.
Mr.. Nulte's wounds were sswed up and
dressed by Dr.. ]. A. Campbell, who pro.
nounced them extremely serious, and posi-
bly dangerous
