ing disposition of the convicts for next year, will stick to the plan of raising cotton on the share-system and on leased land. This plan will be adhered to for the reason that the act of the legislature authorizing the purchase of state farm promises no benefits.
 It is provided in the act that the farm purchased shall be paid for out of the products thereon. Thus far the state board has received TO offers to sell desirable farms upon the terms of the act. No appropriation is available for use in the purchase of farm by the state. and none of the members of the board believe purchase can be effected under the provisions of the act

Fatal Street Duel.

A dispatch from Nashville tells of a fatal street duel at Horatio, in which one man was killed outright and an- other probably fatally wounded. The dead man is Dr. Smith and the wounded man is J. J. Smith, brother of the former. The killing was done by w. w. Millwee. All the principals lived at Horatio. Millwee is one of the wealthiest men in the community, and the Smiths are held in high esteem. The tragedy was the result of an old feud between Dr. Smith and Millwee, who had threatened to kill each other on sight, and went armed in anticipa- ton of an attack. The two men met and both drew their weapons and com menced firing. Dr. Smith received a wound in the left arm but continued to do battle until bullet from Millwee's s pistol pierced his heart. At this june ture J. J. Smith appeared and drew his pistol to fire on his brothers slayer The weapon snapped, and Millwee then fired, the bullet taking effect in J. J. Smiths head. The affair created in tense excitement.
