Two Men Fatally Shoot Each Other Mon.
day Afternoon.
About 2 o'clock Monday afternoon John
DurDsberger shot and killed Jake Geer,
who in turn fred on Durnsberger, both be-
ing killed almost instantly.
The affair happened in Prosser's, at the
small villege opposite Wellsville, known
as Hamilton. Durnsberger, who is resi-
dent of East Liverpool, was there visiting
some of his relatives. and Geer went there
Monday morning in a skif, on his way
from up the river to his boat at Calumet,
opposite the lower end of NeS Cumber-
land, his object presumably being to pur-
chase some crackers for his family. Durns-
berger met him at the store and accused
him of having been the cause Of HIM and his
wife sepa ating Geer retaliated with some
remark to the effect that Durnsberger was
as bad, when the latter pulled revolver
and fired. Geer also fired, hitting Durns-
berger in a vital part; Ger fell to the floor
and expired, while Durnsberger started for
the boat, but fell on his way, dying almost
instantly.
Bad blood has existed between them for
some time. They had racket short
time ago, and each prepared for the next
meeting, which occurred Monday. Jake
Geer is a son-in-law of big John Geer, and
has been living in junk boat and trading
up and down the river, Big John also fol-
lowing the same occupation. The other
man also lived in a junk boat, which lay
near Hamilton. Both men were taken TO
the boat and laid out, head to head, from
whence they will be buried. Geer has
Two brothers in Empire, both of whom
went up yesterday. The coroner's jury
will likely throw further light on the
cause of the tragedy.

great credit by her perfect recitation OF
college Oil Cans" The subject of Mr..
Msulsby's essay was Almost" and of
Miss Elliett's Beyond the Alps Lies
Italy, Both were very creditsble pro.
ductiOns, and received close attention.
Mr.. LOvett delivered an Grafton in which
he discussed the recent political advance.
ment in Japan. under the title "a Step in
Advance He was followed by Mr.
Benedum, whose subject was "BoTnd to
Win" Both gentlemen had good orations,
but both were rather too long for the
occasion.
The question for debate, Resolved, that
gold and not intelligence controls the af-
fairs of our Government" was ably, en-
tertainingly and vigorously discussed, Mr..
Phillips affirming and Mr.. Morris denying.
The performances were all quite meritori-
ous, and the large audience remained
quietly during the entire lengthy pro-
gramme. The decision of the judges was
in favor of Misses Lloyd and Elliott and
Messrs LOvett and Morris.
