Accidental Shooting,

While handling a SO Colts revolver
in Logan & Robinson's store Monday
night, Will Ward shot and badly
wounded VIM. Broaddus They are
both mere boys and were in the back
of the store. Ward was trying to put
Smith & Wesson cartridge into a
Colts pistol, when Broaddus stepped
up and warned him to be careful about
it. The ball entered Broaddus' right
groin and DR.. Kinnaird cut it out on
the opposite side. The physician
thinks that while the wound is very
painful and trou blesome, that it will
not prove fatal Broaddus was re-
moved to Dave Ross residence over
the Jail and every thing is being done
for his comfort. He is son of George
Broaddus and a peaceful and quiet
boy. No one regrets the affair more
than Ward, as the two boys were
great friends.

"A Good Idea.

We understand the County Court i,
talking OF placing electric lights in the
circuit court room. As it is now. the
room is as dark as dungeon and the
only way any light is made at all is by
means of few rickety lamps which
are more than likely to fall or explode
and burn the handsome building. The
cost of putting in the wires will not
be as much as twill cost to buy new
OIL lamps, which will have to be done
before next circuit court We under
stand also that special arrangements
can be made with the elecric light
people whereby the county will only
be charged for the lights when act
ually in use. Thus it is seen that the
cost of electricity is not as much as
oil, and the building is absolutely safe
rom fire from that cause As it's
cheaper and safer there should be no
complaint from the usual gas bags
that kick on every thing that is for the
advancement o: public good

Her idea of what husband should be
is as follows:
THE IDEAL HUSBAND.
Not asked to draw,
If any can,
Without a flaw,
The model man,
Why vainly seek,
With pen to trace,
His grand physique
Or noble face?
Though not endowed with vast estate,
Nor filling well some high position,
He should possess a soul that's great,
And gentle, kindly disposition
If fine or not to outward view,
His heart must tender be and true
A happy laugh, cheering smile,
A helping hand, held out in season;
A patience with my faults the while,
Withholding blame, presenting rea-
son.
A pleasant word on rainy day,
Like sunlight driving clouds away.
An intellectual breadth to meet
All knotty problems of the day;
spirit happy, strong and sweet,
Where the Creator still holds sway.
This model husband God has given,
To lead happy wife to Heaven
The sketch 1 send
was drawn from life,
And she who penncd these lines,
His wife.
