Quite an exciting scene occurred il
the court room at GAINESVILLE one day
last week. For several months Their
has been bad feeling between Arch M
Kennon, prominent attorney, and
Judge George S. Cunningham, which
has been the source of considerable un
pleasant correspondence between TIN
two. Friday, while bill of exception
was being argued before the court, tn
Judge took occasion to allude to tn
correspondence between McKennol
and himself, which enragod the attor
nov and a war OF words ensued. Tn
court ordered fiue of $50 for contempt
wbereupon ne assaulted the Judge OF
the bench with an open knife and stab
bed him several times In the face AM
left arm, none OF the wounds are seri
Gus however. AS McKennon advances
the Judge broke the pitcher over hi
head Friends of the parties interfere
and prevented further trouble. Cap
McKennon's conduct is attributed I
an ungoYernable temper. He was in
mediately arrested and placed undo
bond.

The English Sparrow y Pest.

The English sparrow which was intro
duced in this country about decade
ago, has become terror not only here
but all over the country. He was first
let loose in Fairmonnt Park, Philadel-
phia, for the avowed purpose Of extermi-
mating worms and caterpillars, but it has
been said that he immediately became
the boon companion and bosom friend
of these vermicules. He quickly made
his way to the South and seems to be
committing havoc in the feathered king
dom in this section. An observer says
che thinks that he hears fewer OF the
South's greatest songsters, the mocklng
birds, now warbling than ever before,
and believes that the feathered singers
are abandoning this section. The only
way he can account for their disappear
ance is the advent in this section OF the
English sparrows, which have become
the greatest nuisances wherever they
have made their appearance. They are
turbulent and pugnacious little birds,
and all other birds which do not possess
the same characteristics make haste tc
abandon their favorite retreats and leave
the sparrows in possession of the field.
It would be great pity indeed If the
South's fa1orite birds should be forced
out or exterminated by the Enghst
sparrow, and any means to extermlnate
or drive him away should be resorted to-
as one mocking bird is worth the whole
race.

A Great" Indian Doctor.

A few weeks ago there appeared in the
neighborhood of Shady Grove Church,
in Belton Township, an Indian, accom-
panied by his wife and child. He Sc
cured house on the plantation of
Judge W. F. Cox, and took up his abode
there. In q very short time it was
noised around that he was a medical
doctor, who could cure all manner of
disease. Several darkeys who were
afflicted consulted him, and he began
treating them. In few days they
claimed that they had been entirely
cured of their diseases, and since then
his practice has daily increased. People,
both white and black, who are afflicted
with cancer, white swelling, rheumatism,
dyspepsia, etc., etc., are hocking to him
from miles around, some coming from
both Greenville and Laurens counties,
and in nearly every case the persons
claim that the Indian is beneiting them.
On our trip into the eastern section of
the county last Sunday, We passed by
the home OF the medicine man., and
We venture the assertion, from what We
saw and heard, that there were no less
than one hundred persons to see him
during that day. The Indian claims to
be from Little Rock, Ark. He uses
herbs and plants, and manufactures his
own medicines. He makes no charges
for his services, and is satisfied with
whstever patient gives him. he is said
to be very illiterate.-Anderson Inteui-

Shot the Sherifi's Posse.

ST LOUIS, May 3O.-Sherif Allen, of St..
Louis county, and three deputies crossed
the Missouri river at Musick's Ferry this
morning with a warrant to arrest King,
Hurd and Groegan, charged with stealing
horse and ferry boat from John Smith
Three miles below the sheriff and deputies
found the boat, but upon nearing it the
sheriff and deputies were fred upon with
pistols and shotguns by the parties in pos
session of the boat. The three deputies
were all wounded, and one of them has not
been heard of since. Il. Breckman crossed
with the sheriff 70 this side, and received
the contents of shot gun in the abdomen,
and is thought to be fatally hurt. c. G.
Garrett, a deputy, was shot in the forehead
and right arm. Otto Ashefet, volunteer
deputy, is thought to have been killed, as
he has not been heard from or seen. Sheriff
Allen has placed the matter before County
Attorney Mudd, who has sent the sheriff
to arrest John and James King, Henry
Groegan and Lewis Hurd

THAT SAME OLD GAME.
The Jewelry swindler in Priestly Garb Turns
Up in Washin Ston.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Early last week
a man called at the residence Of the Rev.
E. A. AIcGuirk, S. J., pastor OF St. Aioy-
sius Church, and introduced himself as
Father Mccarthy Of Montreal, presenting
at the same time what purported to be 4
certificate of transfer. Father McCulik,
very much pleased with the suavc visitor,
rendered him the hospitality of the paro-
chial residence.
Yesterday Father Mccarthy went to the
iewelry house of George B. Desio, on
Pennsylvania avenue, and directed that
some diamonds be sent to Father Nc
Guirk's, from which to select a present Tor
Cardinal Gibbons from the Jesuits OF
Washington. Desio called there and
Father Mccarthy, in cassock and Deretta,
met him at the door Mccarthy took the
diamonds, valued at 500, and went up
stairs, ostensibly to show them to the
priests of the household. That was the
last Desio saw of Mccarthy or the dEs.
monds. The swindler dive sted himself OF
his robes and slipped out the back way.
The police of the country will be notified.

A Good FIosging More EFectual.

Andrew Tally, a negro prisoner, was re-
leased from Jail last Monday on expiration
of sentence. He was arrested last August
on charge of stealing hat worth seventy.
five cents. Twenty days later he was re
leased on bail, and at the October term OF
court he was convicted of petit larceny.
Not appearing for sentence, sealed sen.
tence was left and bench warrant issued
for his arrest, which was effected on the
18th of October. He then remained in jail
until the February term of court, when the
sealed sentence was opened and he was
sent to jail for ninety days, which expired
last Monday, he having been in jail alto.
gether eight months. That little case of
petit larceny has cost the county about one
hundred dollars. A good hogging, admin
istered under sentence of Trial Justice,
would have been far more efectual punish
ment and would have cost the county little
or nothing Anderson Journal.
