Ex-Treasurer j. {. smith Kills Himself.
A messenger came to town just be
fore noon today with the shocking in
telligence that ex-Treasurer |. c. Smith
had accidently shot himself through
the heart, producing, of course, in
slant death. The meagre particulars
cleaned state that Mr.. Smith picked
up his pistol and walked out of the
house to shoot hawk. At the edge
of the gallery he made mis-step and
fell with his finger on the trigger of the
double action pistol with the above
terrible result.
Ike Smith, as he is generally known,
was one of the most universally popu-
lar men in the county. He was born
gentleman the soul of honor, and his
tragic death causes void that will be
