ACCIDENTALLY KMLED.-On Wednesday
between twelve and one O'Clock two parties
of gunuers, one composed of three white men
and the other of three colored men, met be-
tween Clayton and Joppa. They stopped to
discuss their luck and, while they were stand
ing in group, rabbit jumped up In their
midst. Several of them shot at the rabbit and
one of the men, named Charles Cook fell
dead with load of shot in his side. 1t is
supposed the load came from the gun of Chas.
Keyser, another of the white men, as it was
accidentally discharged as he attempted to
raise it. Keyser Immediately came to Bel Air
to give himself up, but States Attorney Pres
ton, after hearing his statement, told him TO
go home as the killing was evidently purely
accidental. Keyser seemed much distressed.

Where Models Come From.

Paris artists depend largely for their
models on the Italians Out of every
hundred at least 10 are Italians. They
are better figures than the French, and
they are better models. They can take
more easily the poses which the painter
desires and fall into them more grace
fully. They are simpler in their habits
and less expensive. The natural fitness
of the Italians for this work has given
them almost monopoly of the studios,
and art and artists have had the adyan-
tage. London News.

Some Queer Shaped Comets.

The astronomers and observers in gen
eral have noted and recorded many odd
tiles among the various comets or "hair,
stars" that have made their appearance
i'll the heavens. That of the year 1902
known as Meta s comet" was in til,
form of pillow, but without anything
resembling handles.
The crook near the "moldboard'
finally elongated until the celestial wan
derer stretched out in V shape until i
looked like flock of fiery geese. 10
sephus says that the comet of the yea
20 A. d. was i'll the shape of a sword
and that it hung over the city (of Jeru
salem) whole year. - The comet o.
1921 looked like the fiul1es of an i'm
mense whale, the resemblance being so
strong that it went into the histories Of
several widely separated countries al
the whale comet. Donati's comet
when first seen on June 2, 1858, was il
the shape of a tadpole. On Oct. 8 il
was sword shaped, and six days latel
was the counterpart of the wing of gi
gantic bird. Louis Republic.

A VIEW.


The Montana Tribune has been scan
ming the political horizon and not only
sees q silver Congress, but . free coinage
President to succeed Cleveland. II says:
"Silver is going to control the next
Presidential election. We have looked
over the States and can come pretty near
the figures. There are twenty-eight
States that cannot be carried ON q gold
platform as the situation 10 to-day.
There are 444 electoral votes. 3 majority
being 223. These States cast 233 votes
or q majority Of ten. The list does
not include either OF the Virginias. Penn.
~sylvania, New York or Ohio, and il is .
question whether either could be carried
on q gold issue. The repeal Of the pur-
chase claupe Of the Sherman law was .
covered issue, stampeded with a panic to
back il, and an assurance from every
Senator who voted for it that he was .
bimetallist. A cowardly Congress by no
means includes q cowardly people. No
man or party that fails to pledge itself to
the restoration Of silver can come within
the distance pole in the next Presiden-

James Chatham, q weil-known resi-
dent Of the Comstoek, relates the follow.
ing incident that occurred in Arizona
during the time that the Apache Indi.
ans were . terror to the Inhabitants OF
that Territory. Colonel Hardy, q wealthy
trader, had q line Of freight teams on the
road between Kingman, Mineral Park
and Stockton Hill. One Of his wagon
trains was captured by Apsches and the
tesmsters and swampers in charge were
killed and scalped.
The Colonel loaded another wagon
with ak horses attached and . thorough.
bred saddle horse led behind. He drove
the team himself and, as he anticipated,
was swoOped down upon by . band Of
Apsches. He cut the horses loose from
the wagon, which was loaded with -four
and sugar, and mounting the saddle horse
that he had in tow made his escape.
Shortly afterward . report came to
Stockton Hill that the wagon road from
there to Mineral Park was strewed with
the eorpsss Of Apaches. The Colonel
smiled when he heard Of it and remarked;
Every sack Of -four and sugar in the
outfit, that the red devils captured from
me, was mixed with s~tryehnine. l had
poison marked On every sack to warn any
white person Of its deadly contents. but
as the ApAehes could not read, they took
the medicine | had prepared to send them
to the happy hunting ground" After
this pleasant episode the Apaches never
molested the Captains wagon trains.
Colonel Hardy is a relative Of Rufin
Hardy Of this place and the former il
now . millionaire Of Arizons.-Virginis
