Gus BRYANT SHoT.-A shooting affair
occurred at Rock Point, Maryland, on Sat
ur,lay night, which resulted in the killing
OF Augustus Bryant, alias RED Hot" for
merly of, and we'll known in, this city. Bry-
ant had been acting as barkeeper ct Whit
ncy's saloon at that place, but was dis
charged week since and Charles fiugItt
put in his place. The change was made be
cause of Bryant's being on & spree, and ne
continued drinking all week. He was an
inoil.nsive fellow enough when sober, and
even in liquor was not beiligerent, though
inclined to be quarrelsome. Early in the
week he got into difficulty with one Of the
oystermen aud was struck over the head
with a bottle, receiving severe wound
During Saturday Hight borrowed bryaats
revolver ostensiby to prevent him doing any
one an injury with it. Later in the evening
quarrel took place between the two men,
aud the revolver was used with deadly ef-
feet upon its owner by his successor at the
bar. Bryant never spoke after receiving
the shot, which, it is supposed, penetrated
his heart. Yesterday the body lay in an
Clubhouse, and the slayer dispensed liquids
over the counter as though nothing unusual
hai happened
