TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
The WhItecaps at Gate City Muir
der Sarn Wood In Cold Blood.

Reliable reports have reached this place
of a terrible murder committed by band
of outlaws, or clan of Whisccaps,at Gate
City, last Monday night.
1t seems from the particulars, as we
have been able to gather them, that the
uhitecaps were somewhat intoxicated,snd
were ont for the purpose of routing some
bad women, who lived on the outskirts OF
the corporate limits. But these wopen,
apprehending the coming of the white
caps, made their escape. After they had
searched several houses they came upon
the residence Of San, Wood and demand
cd entrance. but being refused, until he
could get light, they shot him twice
from the effects of which he died at SIX
o'clock Tuesday morning
Such lswlsssncss should not be folsrat-
ed, and no feel sure that justice will be
mcsed out to the parties when sufficient
evidence has proved them guilty.
Weare informed that Sam Wood was q
peacabls aud law-abidins citizen, and hao
the confidence and respect of the people,
Three parties have been arrssted, bur
not an vet, 40 we know Of, been convicted.

WATER SPOUT.

Two Houses Washed Awav at GiNey-
Great Damage Done to Property.
Z Last Saturday evening, between 8 and
6 O'Clock, at Gillev, a place about seven
miles above here on the L. l. N. K. H., one
of the greatest storms prevailed tnat has
occurred for many years. Between the
headwaters Of Looney Creek and Preach
er's Creek, on the top Of the lsom Rock
Ridge, the water streamed forth in great
columns piercing pits into the earth.
y Within aauarter Of a mile Of the main
columns of water the hail fell 80 rapidly
it attained depth Of about ten inches.
On top Of the ridge, where tho water spout
occurred, it seems to have run down the
gorge with the fury of the Hood which
swept away the city of Johnstown several
wears ago in Pennsylyania, forcing before
it all timber and rocks, and, in fact, av-
or,thing that impsded its course to the
valley below.
IS Mr.. Enoch Kilbourn and j. c. Lewis,
who live on the side of the ridge, had the
misfortune Of having their homes totally
DESTROYED. 1t carried away the barn and
crib of Mr.. Kilbourn, forcing him and his
family out into the rain and hail, which
mas still falling, Leaving him homeless
and with but little property.
+ Mr.. Lewis Was absent and his family
was alone. Mrs. Lewis waa preparing sup
per, when suddenly largs DRIFT OF ios'
atruck the house with tremendous force,
knocking tie, roof and top wall from on
|its foundation. The stove falling caught
Nrs, Lewis, while fcrty-foot log lay
near her body, but freeing herself from
under the stove by tearing her dresa, she
met her little daughter coming through
an opening in the wall made by the log
The other two children escaped by pass
ing out at tho opening made by the fallen
chimney. No serious injury was done TO
the family, but great damage was done to
their property.
