wounded in the right eye and both cheeks
BY shot from a 12gauge brass shortsur
cartridge last night at about 1916 o'clock.

car.
After the accident Johnson was taken into
a drug store nearby where DR.. Sloan, OF
Columbia. cared for his injuries. One shot
pierced the flesh under the outer edges If

and many ridiculous rumOrs were circulat-
ed. There was talk about Internal ma
chimes. an attempt to blow up a car. and OF

FOR SALE.

In accordance with conclusion
reached some two months since the
M1DDLETowN TRANSCRIPT, good will
mailing lists, &c. included, is offered
for sale. The reason is the protracted
i'll health of the editor and proprietor.
Formore than two years he has been Q
victim of liver trouble and though
perhaps in general health is as well
now as at any time of this period yet
a change of climate is advised as neces-
sary. For this reason the paper is
offered for sale though with much
reluctance many pleasant ties will be
thus severed. Such is life. Brother
editors will confer a favor by noting
the fact that the paper is for sale. No
more beautiful section of country in
which to locate.
