MI. Frank p. CloSs an attorney Of this city, was
some time ago appointed magistrate In Alexan-

pike. He has now learned that the course OF bust

always run as smoothly as the business In the
Office OF Washington lawyer. He has not, how
ever, given up his practice In this city. There is
law in that county prohibiting The firing on OF

The latter refused to allow his clerk to be taken
away, and offered TO use his revolver in case any
attempt was made to forcioly take him from the
store. He tooI th1S action because squire Gloss
had told him that the warrant was not worth the
paper ON which II was written. Nelson Wallace,
tue colored special who obtained the warrant,
thought he would make sure the next
time, and insnuated that esquire" Gloss
was impeding Justice. He tnereupon called upon

who issued warrant charging the young man on
