that Colonel Hgdon called the companies
together and severely censured them for
any such unsoldierly conduct, but even with
these precautions, there is still an under
current talk of an attempted lynching.
There is but little doubt, however that
wiser Judgment will prevail, and that the
law will be allowed to take it's course. The
story of the shooting is about as follows:
The negro Reese is a kind of peddler who
hangs around the camp, selling fried fish
and soda water. The boys in camp. having
nothing else to do. have been in the habit
OF dumping negroes as well members
of their own companies, against trees This
morning, 1T is said Reese was bumped"
several times. After this he went off and
armed himself. At dinner tme about 1880,
Andy -Gump, of the Woodlawn company,
got into a quarrel with Reese over bottle
of soda water, and he alleged that the ne
gro drew a pistol and cursed him.
After the "Nigger"
He reported this back in camp and in a
twinkling there were a hundred boys quiet
ly going through the lines after the mig
ger" with the gun, who had in the mean
while departed, accompanied by several Of
his friends. The pursuing party, of which
Collins was in the lead, began to gain on
him, and Reese suddenly sprang out from
behind wagon, where he had taken ref
uge. brandished his pistol once or twice and
fired two shots into the group of approach
ing soldiers.
Most of the men had fallen ON their faces,
when they saw the threatened danger, and
escaped injury, but the first shot struck
Collins over the right eye and he dropped
like log. Collins was armed, though his
pistol had never been drawn from his
pocket. Only one other of these in the
lead is said to have been armed, though
soon after Reese had fired his two shots
and had taken fight, a running fire was
kept up by his pursuers. AS soon as Col
lins fell. his comrades Immediately brought
him into camp, where the surgeons ex-

John Cloutz, one of the soldier boys
of Sinnemahoning, came home on
furlough last week and started back
for camp Alger on Sunday night.
Johnny is looking well and likes his
"job" first rate; he reports the boys
from here all well and happy except
one bad case of homesickness. He
says the boys were delighted with the
big box of good things sent them from
friends and relatives at home and that
they appreciate the kindly interest
taken in their personal comfort and
welfare.
At about twelve O'Clock on Sunday
as Mr.. E. E. Shaw and family were
about to leave their home to call on a
neighbor, they discovered the house to
be on fire and as Mr.. Shaw lived some
distance from other houses he fired
two shots from his gun to attract help
and then with the aid of his heroic
little wife set about saving what they
could and succeeded in removing every
thing except one stove, from the
lower story to place of safety. Sew
eral neighbors arrived in time to help
get out the heavier articles and enough
was saved to start the unfortunate
family to housekeeping again; then
they could only stand and see their
cosy little home devoured by the
hungry element. The sympathy of
the entire community is with Mr..
Shaw in his misfortune as he is hard
working young man and an excellent
citizen and the loss is a severe one to
him. Much praise is due Mrs. Shaw
for her coolness and bravery during
the exciting ordeal. The house was
partially insured.

The Fourth at Austin.

While the Hose Company's dance
was in progress at the picnic grounds,
about ten o'clock on the night of the
Fourth, the fire alarm sounded and
the celebration was brought to
sudden stop by the burning of two
houses in the upper part of town, be-
longing to Riley Quick and Jim David
son. The fire being about mile from
the dance platform and most of the
firemen being there, it was some time
before they got a line of hose laid, but
they succeeded in saving the two
houses adjoining, belonging to A. A.
