The inhabitants of ancient Egypt are

such animals are found upon their monu-
ments Of the year 1000 b. C, more than
200 years before they appear on European
monuments An Egyptian tomb Of the
year 1900 b. c. Is the first 70 show a

LEXINGTON. D. T., Oct. 13.-Rev. Basham
had AN encounter with q band of mid
night assassins at his home in this city
last night
For some time Mr.. Bssham has had in.
formation brought to him that mis- life
was threatened by a band of outlaws and
he had armed himself and WAS prepared
luckily for him, as the encounter with the
desperadoes proved. Last night the rever
end gentleman had retired when he heard
footsteps outside and subdued converse
ton between several men. He took
his six-shooter and 4 shotgun
and went cautiously out a side door,
He had scarcely got out of the door
when some one ouly Il few steps away
fired at him but missed, aud Immediately
Mr.. Basham opened fire and dropped one
of the desperadoes aud went TO shooting
at two Others who were rapidly retreating.
After enptying all his firearms Mr.. Bas-
ham returned to the house to get his Win
chester. and when he returned all had fled ,
taking the wounded man with them. That
the one Is fatally shot is almost certain, for
great pools of blood were found where ne
fell when shot and where he WAS taken
over the fence. Officers James Eikins AID
VIII James are out on the trail of the des-
prradoes and they will have TO move fast
IL they succeed in making good their es-
cape.
