Fatally Shot.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. PA young
man named John Hlnson, who is said to be
nephew of Gen. Gillhall, of New Orleans,
was stopped by two highwaymen at the
corner of Tenth street and Tracey avenue,
about half past II o'clock last night and on
his attempting to resist be was shot in the
stomach. The pistol shot aroused the
neighborhood and Hipson was carried to his
home, only few doors distant. The doctor
who examined him pronounced his wounds
mortal. The criminals escaped. An IN
precedentei number of outrages by foot
pads has occurred in this city in the past
two weeks, the number reported to the
police amounting to between forty and fifty.
This condition of affairs has resulted in
thirty policemen being placed on patrol
duty in citizsn's clothes, to put stop to the
outrage if possible.

War Of determination.

CATTLETTsBURG, KY, Jan. 1.-THE war
of determination continues between the Nc
Coys of Pike county, KY, and the Hat6elds
of Logan county, W. Va. As soon as the
last sad rites of the late butchery were over,
the McCoys organized posse and visited the
Hatfield settlement in West Virginia for the
purpose of annibilatiDg the gang. The posse
visited the Hatfield house and finding no one
at home, they repaired to the woods to med
itate few moments. Their secrecy was OF
short duration, for the Hatfield gang was
coon upon them and regular battle ensaed.
After the smoke had cleared away it was
found that the Hatfield party were badly
worsted aud three Of their number we're
killed, while none of the Mccoy posse were
hurt. Those known to be killed were John
con Hatfield, Thomas Chambers and James
Vance, Vance was shot seven times. Sat
isfed with their days work theMcCoy posse
returned to their settlement to wait devel-
ments. Vance has killed several men in
the Mccoy neighborhood and had to leave
in consequence. He had been bold, dar-
ing desperate fellow. The authorities are
powerless and the war will doubtless be
waged.until oneside or the other is complete
ly extsrminate6, as no one in authority
seems to care.

Railroad Accidents.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, Jan. IA serious
accident occurred on the Atlantic and Pa.
cifc Railroad about three miles from Cool
idge, N. NJ, yesterday, in which eight per-
sons we're slightly injured and three prob
ably fatally. 1t appears that the frat class
coach attached to the regular passenger
train jumped the track and turned over,
making complete wreck of the car. Mics
Florence Wilson, from Woodstock, ILL.,, had
her skull fractured and received internal in
juries from which she will probably die.
The other two persons who have sustained
probably fatal injuries are women whose
names are unknown. Owing to the secrecy
which prevails amongst the officials of this
road it is very difficult to learn the exact
facts.
DENVER, Col, Jan 12.-While moving a
train load of ore from the Mary Murphy
mine, near st. Elmo, yesterday, the air
brakes failed and the engine and cars ran
down the mountain with fearful velocity in
to the town of st. Elmo, where the engine
and four cars jumped the track. instantly

COMMUNICATED.

The condition Of the roedwsys leading to
our cemeteries is disgrace TO the lot hold
ers. when The expense for making good
shell or gravel road is considered. In wet
seasons it is almost impossible for pedes
TRANS to follow the remains Of beloved
friend to the grave And the mud blockade
prevents the bereaved mother, wife, dangh
ter or sister. from visiting the lonely spot
where the object Of their sorrow lies sleep
ing. If the profits from the sale of lots does
not justify the outlay, let the lot holders be
taxed in proportion TO the number of square
feet they own, for the purpose of making q
hard bed for both sidewalk and carriage
way, and l will guarantee that the City
Council will meet them at the corporation
line. Then again, what Christian ever con-
ceived the idea of putting barbed wire
fence around cemetery. No one but dry
goods merchant could have suggested such
a thing. Come, Bethel, remove the barbar-
GUS fence. PROGRESS
