vile, Ky, between Ell. Cooney and John
keown, iii which both were injured fatally.
Cooney has for some time been paying At
tentions to Keowns sister, and was engaged
to her, but lately showed a disposition to
break of with her. keown demanded that
he make good his intentions, which Cooney
agreed to, setting Tuesday evening for the
time, but failed to appear. Wednesday
night he passed Keown's residence, and
was stopped by Keown, who demanded an
explanation of his conduct. Cooney, who
was drunk, replied insutingly, and then the
fusilade began, and the men lost no time in
emptying their revolvers Cooney was shot
through the neck, the ball barely missing
the jugular vein. and ranging downward.
Another raked his abdomen. Keown was
struck just above the left eye, the ball going
through the brow bone and gaucing around
to the side of his head, and another ball
struck him in the chin. The ball in the
head has not been extracted Cooney was
arrested. The greatest excitement prevails,
both parties having friends who are bitter
in their expressions as to the affair. The
mayor of Hawesvile fears trouble between
the two factions, and has sworn in a special
police force.

A Dangerous Practical Joke.

Recently some manufacturer has adopted
K method Of ''loading" cigars of Ger.
tain brand with chemical cartridge which
takes fire soon after the weed iY light.
cd. There is no sudden explosion which
skaters the wrapper and sends fragments
of burning tobacco in all directions, but
from the end of the cigar q stream of fire
shoots out TO distance of about three feet
in direct line. It makes a man look for
a few seconds as if he were gas tank and
held piece Of broken gas pipe in his
mouth. The man is 30 danger SO long as
he keeps still and lets the cigar sputter
away. To hold tho weed firmly in the
teeth at such momeEt is q better test OF Il
mans nerve than TO hang on TO the end of q
burning Roman candle. The chief danger
TO be feared is that some man may drop a
cigar and start IL conaa2rallon II he at
tempts to smoke indoors.
Tn one department of the city govern
ment the clerks have found much amuse-
ment lately in dealing out cigars of the new
brand and waiting for the displays of
pyrotechuics. They suddenly abandoned
that form of diversion q few days ago,
on account Of an unexpected accident.
One of tho clerks had presented u cigar
10 an official, but it had been consigned
to the officials pocket until u more con-
venient time for smoking. That time CAME
when the official got on tho front platform Of
a street Car and borrowed ''ightn from
q stout German The heaGs We're close to-
gether, and the official was sucking the fire
from the end of the Germans half burned
weed when there was fiZz like that which
attends the flight Of a rocket. A stream of
fire played directly into the Germans face,
scorching his cheei; Gnd obllerating one
large, red side whjsker in all instant. The
German jumped Off the car with howl Of
anguish. He WAS followed hy the aston
ished official, who began to make an apollo
gy.
You make one pig joke" screamed the
German, "but haf you arrested"
The official was obliged to show his shield
and give the name Of In" clerk who had
furnished the obnoxious cigar hcfoTr the
German would believe his explanation. A
day or two later the clerl; received . letter
from the Germans lawyer stating that suit
for damages had been authorized. Fearing
that his position in the department would
be forfeited if the facts c&.nc 10 tho notice
of commissioner, the clerk made haste TO
settle. The sum of mouey which was need
ed as salve TO the Germans outraged feel
ings made a big hole in the clerks monthly
pay. Warned by his experience, the other
clerks have since been experimenting with
cigars loaded" only with the teeth extract
ed from rubber combs. The fumes of burn
ing rubber mixed with tobacco smoke have
turned the stomachs of several casc-harden-
ed smokcrs.-Ne'c York Tribune

with his parents.
Our school opened last Monday with
fair attendance. B. f. Gilman is
again principal, and Miss Lizzie Kaye
assistant; the same teachers that had
charge last year. This is one of the
best schools in the county, and par
ents in this Dist. having children of
school age, should take note of this
fact and send them regularly. Also
pupils from surrounding districts,
being to far advanced for the work
taken up In their school and not able
to attend the Normal, will find this
school suited to their wants, and
are cordially invited to attend. All
the first, second and third grade bran
ches are taken up some time during
the year.
