OF ]. j. Hendricks friends circulated petit
ion asking Governor Stone to appoint him to
the vacancy Of the county court bench, made
vacant by the resignation of Judge james
A. Reddine- and the petition was signed by
q large number OF our citizens before Mr.
Kendrick was aware Of what was being done
He demurred from the FIRST and when be
found the field was full of good men he ''un.
conditioaally" withdrew. as he did not want
the position in the first place, and only
suffered the use OF his name when he thought
perhaps there were no Others in the field, and
desires us to return his sincere thanks to
the friends who have circulated and signed
his petition for their effort in his behalf.

cred next Monday. at S4.75 a hundred.
The Wheeler boys have also contracted their
hogs, to be delivered next Monday week, to
d. j. Holman at $3.50 a hundred, as has al
so their neighbor, j. G.. Martin, contracted
his porkers to Mr.. Holman at the same price
to be delivered at the same time. Mr.. Martin.
we understand, was offered $4.75 for his cat
tie for July delivery by Storts Bros. OF Saline
county. but refused to take that price.
Messrs. Storts Bros, of Saline county,
shipped car loads OF cattle. which were fed
the past season on Shively Bros.' farm, in
Missouri township, from Dalton to Chicago
Monday.
Chris Noll. pa Iominent Missouri township
farmer, shipped a car load each Of hogs and

An Accidental Shooting.

On Wednesday morning Howard Owen, a
son OF Mr.. A. +. Owen, of this place, started
away over to Dalton, and concluded to take
as presented itself on the way, shooting at
birds, frogs, etc.
Jack Prather, a negro citizen of this place,
respected by both whites and blacks, rode
down to Scrogginsville, in the south part of
town. on the freight car as did also young
Mr.. Owen, but the latter was on his way to
the depot. Jack got off at ScrsgginsviIle,
and some fifty or seventy-tive yards beyond
where Piather alighted from the CIR, young
Owen. who was still on the car, raised his
target gun in one hand and pointed it at
Jack remarking as he did so, Look out.
Jack'' The weapon was discharged, and
the 22-calibre force ball from the gun found
Judgement in Prather's right side, entering
between the sixth aud seventh ribs, penetra.
ting the lower lobe of the right lung.
Prather staggered and fell and was carried
into a neighboring house, and a physician
sent for. An hour or SO afterward the
wounded negro was taken to his home in the
north part OF town.
The attending physicians, Drs. Perkins
and Aldridge, say that while Jacks wound is
dangerous. they do not regard it as neces-
sarily fatal. Prather was resting easier
yesterday morning and his fever, which was
up to 104 Wednesday afternoon, had sub
sided.
Thus another tragic chapter is recorded in
the careless handling OF firearms, but a
great many people refuse to profit by such
sad accidents, and will continue to increase
the business of undertakers.
Young Owens, however, assures us that
he has learned a lesson he will not soon for.
get, and although he did not know the gun
was cooked when he pointed it at Prather.
the result is Just as disastrous so fac as the
unfortunate negro is concerned.
Howard says that he now realizes with the
circus clown. whose mother had licked him
with the ramrod, that n gun is dangerous
without lock, stock or barrel.

The shnrpest Man.

Two Keytesville young ladies were
walking along the street a few days
ago when one of them asked the
other: "who is the sharpest man in
town."
"Give't up," replied the second
young lady as she changed her chew
ing gum from one side OF her mouth
to the other.
"why, Mr.. Sharp. of course" re-
sponded the first young lady.
And as the second young lady
gasped for breath, she swallowed her
chewing gum.
Mr.. Sharp, by way OF explanation
we will say, is the fat and genial
gauger who locks to Uncle Sans
interests at .Hansman * Kicks
distillery, at this place.

Judge W. j. Parks. OF near Shannondale,
had a narrow escape from being seriously
hurt while in Salisbury Wednesday. He was
at the Salisbury Mill and Elevator COM
pany's Touring mill and in turning his team
around he broke the tongue to his spring
wagon, but thought it would hold together
until he could drive to the blacksmith shop
Tor repairs. On his way, however, in passing
over street crossing the tongue to the
wagon was broken entirely in two, which let
the wagon onto the horses and they started
to run. The Judge jumped out, but held to
the lines and was isrked down and dragged
several yards, but finally succeeded in stop
ping the horses. No damage was done ex-
cept breaking the wagon tongue and
bruising Judge Parks considerably on hia

p. w. Blakely, farmer OF near
Mendon, went into town to church
on Sunday night OF last week, and
when he got ready to start back
home his team of ponies and buggy
were gone from the hitchrack. He
supposed that he would find them
on returning home, but they were
not there. and he concluded they
had been stolen. Heewent to the
Citizen Office, at Mendon, and had
cards printed the next morning,
describing the stolen property and
offering $50 for its return and the
capture OF the thief. A few hours
later Mr.. Blakely received word that
his ponies and buggy had beenfound
by Henry Newcomer down on Salt
Greek, near the residence OF VIM.
Martin, where the ponies were hem
med in so that they could get no
further. No damage was done
either to the ponies or buggy. The
hitch reins were tied up, and it is
supposed that some one had either
driven the team and buggy to O
point near where they were found,
or that Mr.. Blakely forgot to hitch
the ponies when he got to town, as
he was so eager to get into church
to hear the sermon.
