The phone has been removed
from the Miller county Court house
aud the lawyers and others having
business there, will have to walk or
ride up in the future, when they
want information. We think the
telephone company should donate
this instrument for the franchise
they receive. 1t is one thing GER
tain, unless they connect with the
court house, there will be over a
dozen instruments ordered out.
We suppose the the county clerk
did not feel justified in paying for
this phone. If the COM
pany will not put this back at their
expense, some donation from those
who are mostly served by the in
strument being there, should be
made and the phone ordered back.

LETTER LED To CHALLENGE.
A Sensation That started at Tybee
and Has Not Yet Ended.

/ There IS blood on the moon IN one OF
/ the interior counties OF the First congress
I sional district For the last several days
{ the people have been expecting 10 hear
OF somebody being shot.
According 10 the story which reaches
/ Savannah. a prominent lawyer, vel
known throughout all this section. i gun
ming for a young lumherman; also very
well-known in Savannah.
The trouble came from a letter written
by the lawyers wife 10 the young hum
herman. inviting him 10 come TO Tybee
and spend Sunday with a young LADY
friend Of hers. The letter Is innocent
enough, * would appear. except for the
fact that 81 contains a mention OF funds,
with which 10 seems the young lumberman
was expected 10 be supplied.
The two ladies. "a is said were stopping at
one Of the hotels at Tybee week before
last. The letter invited the lumberman 10
come down and spend last Sunday He
received the letter at his place Of business
al right enough. but unfortunately for
him IL happened TO fall into the hands OF
a lady friend, and the result was trouble
at once. This did not prevent him from
coming TO Savannah, though. TO I'LL his
engagement at Tybee, but he made the
fatal mistake Of leaving the tel-tale let
ter in the hands of the girl he left behind
him.
The lumberman went 10 Tybee and
spent a pleasant Sunday, doubtless, but
when he returned home he found trouble
The one whom he had deserted for one
stfll more fair had revenged herself BY
forwarding the letter she had taken from
him 10 the husband Of the writer. and the
latter was naturally enraged at finding
his wife engaged a s Il seemed TO him, IN
a questionable piece OF business. He an
nounceu his determination to have salts
faction. and no sufficient explanation be-
ing forthcoming he is said TO have for
warded a chaHenge 10 the lumberman to
fight with eit!cr pistols, rfles or shot
guns, as he preferred The iumberman
had no desire 10 shed anybody's blood or
TO Lose any Of his own, and he replied to
the challenge by declining IL on the
grounds thar the lawyer was known
as an expert shot, while he had
had no experience with firearms
This only enraged the lawyer more, and
he replied by a challenge to fight with
knives, axes. or any other weapon with
This was too much for the lumberman and
he declined to fight at all
The lawyer is said TO have declared his
Intention TO shoot on sight. and the lum-
herman at last reports, was endeavoring
to keep the best part Of his home county
between himself and the enraged hus-
band
Both men are we'll known here and the
affair IS being discussed with great deal
Of interest. The two ladies whose visit to
Tybee caused so much trouble are both
said to be very beautiful, but just what
measure Of blame attaches TO them is not
known. Prominent citizens are now en-
deavO'ing TO patch up truce, but with
what success is not yet known.
