Shooting at Wells,

On last Friday afternoon a young man
by the name OF Hawkins, who has for
some time been in the employ OF Mr..
Wardwell, got on something OF a jam
boree ut Wells anu succeeded in string
up a difficulty in Charley Burton's saloon
with the bnr-krcper, Al. Durec. when
weapons were drawn, and. in the Ian
guage OF Mark Twain, the trouble be-
gan. Durcc came from behind the bar
aud Hawkins threw has left arm around
Dur,c's neck and with his right pressed
his revolver against Dure,s face and
tr-d Fortunately Cor the intended
corpse, "a bystnndrr known ms Tex struck
Hawkins - severe blow ON the head with
n revolver ut the lac pulled the
trigger, which diverted the aim so that
the ball entered DuTcc's check, pas ed
around under the ear and came out at
the bncA OF the neck. producing a pain
fui, though it is thought not dangerous,
wound. llaTkins received several Sc
we're blows upon the head. and it il sup
posed that the shot after passing through
Durcc's check entered Hawkins left
wrist. passed upward between the bones
of the fore arm and came out between
the wrist nnd elbow. IL was the genera
opinion that it was Hawkins " shot
that produced this wound, and the pOsit-
ion of his arm, being thrown around
Durce's neck. when the shooting occur
ed makes II quite probable. II seems TO
be- the opinion that Duree, after being
shot, would have killed Hawkins but his
gun refused to act as he snapped it sew
eral times without effect.
Both parties ARE under arrest. and q
preliminary examination will be held rs
soon as the parties are able. both being
now confined to bed. Hawkins being
much the worst injured Of the two.
