in Grundy county on Wednesday

barrel into her daughter, who was
dangerously wounded. We have not
been able to get any further particu-

A Serious Difficulty.

About half past four o'clock Thurs
day afternoon Buck Locke and Tay-
lor Argo, both of this county, got
into a dispute over game of billiards
in Hughes saloon, on Spring Street
Locke struck Argo severe lick on
the head with a heavy billiard cue,
telling him to the floor. Locke inn
mediately mounted his mule, and
left for his home, several miles in the
country. Officers went in pursuit a
few minutes afterward, but Locke
made good his escape. Drs. Black
and Sparks were called in and dress
ed Argos wound. The wound is a
very serious one, and may prove IA
tai, the skull being badly fractured.
He bled profusely from the mouth,
nose and ears. He is some better
this friday morning. Locke is a
very dissolute character, and has been
in numerous scrapes before. He fins
ished out a term in the Texas peni-
tertiary about three months ago for
some crime committed in that state.
Both men have families. Argo lives
on Rocky River, and Locke lives
several miles southwest of town.

FAST AYAND GOOD FRIDAY.

In appointing Fast day on Good
Friday Gov Dillingham; followed the
example set by Gov. Horace Fair
banks. 1t was good idea and well
worth repeating Caledonian.
In 1870 His Excellency, Moses
Robinson, appointed Fast day on
Wednesday, the 2Sth day of April.
In 1895 Governor Chittcnden APP
pointed Fast on Wednesday, the 9th
day of May, closing his proclama-
ton with the words God Save The
People" In 1901 Fast came on
Wednesday the ODD of April, and in
1909 on Wednesday, the 18th; III
1925 ON Wednesday the 18th day of
April. Finally Wednesday was
abandoned for Fast day and in 1880
Governor Crafts made the appoint
ment ON Friday, April 9th, which al
so was Good Friday. Since about
that time our Governors have select
ed Friday for Fast, instead of We'd
nesday as was the custom with the
early fathers, preferring an early Fri
day in April at that. Last year Fast
was the 9Th, but Good Friday did
not get round till the 10Th. This
year Good Friday came the 4th of
the month and this day was proper
