One of the saddest deaths which has occurred in our town, was that of Mrs. Sallie Sowcrs, of Terrell, Texas, at the home of her father, Mir. \. L. Oslin, on Wednesday morning of last week Mrs. Sow CTS came here, over month ago, to attend the golden wedding of her father and mother, and, while here. was stricken down with pneumonia, which finally =termi- mated in her death. Her husband. Mr. John Sowers, Was telegraph ed for, and came as fast as the train could bring him; but the gen tie spirit of his wife had taken its flight to better land, before he arrived. The remains were inter- red in the family burying ground, North of this city. Our heartfelt sympathies are extended to the bereaved family in their great and grievous afiliction.

On Sunday night, after Christ mas, negro man by the name of
 ohm Harris was way-laid and shot, while on his way to Church, near Florence, in this county. He was shot in the right jaw, breaking the iawbone, and in the right shoul- der and side. He was in buggy with his brother, when the shoot ing occurred, and the negroes claim that three men did the shooting but 1t was too dark to recognize the offenders Harris is in very critical condition, and may die from his wounds. Suspicion rests upon certain parties, but SO far there IS no convincing evidence, and no arrests have been made. Sheriff Hammock attended the scene of the shooting and did all that was possible to apprehend he guilty parties.

Will Sue for Damages.

Claim Agent Shaw of the North
ern Pacific was in the city on Mon
day in consultation with Mrs. X.
o. Skatteboe's attorney, NJ. O. Reed,
and an endeavor was made to eff
feet compromise Of the suit for
$4,000 damages against the rail
road company, for causing the
death of X. 0. Skatteboe in Mos
COW on Nov. %, 1897. The claim
agent and attorney left for Moscow
on Tuesday and visited the scene
of the accident. 1t is understood
that Claim Agent Shaw asked that
Mrs. Skatteboe take no further
steps in the suit for ten days, until
the matter could be referred to the
general management of the COM
pany.
Skatteboe was vice president of
the Moscow National bank, and of
fine financial standing Nov. 25,
1897, he was walking on the North
ern Pacific track just within the
yard limits, when he was struck by
the engine of an incoming train and
Instantly killed. At the coroner's
inquest the engineer testified that
he first saw deceased walking on
the track about four car lengths
ahead of the engine, and sounded
the engine whistle. Although lie
reversed his engine, deceased was
struck and thrown from the track
Mr.. Reed reports that since the in
quest the engineer has admitted
that he saw Skatteboe on the track
half mile ahead of the train and
endeayored TO warn him. Finding
the warning unheeded, he conclud
ed that the man on the track in
tended to commit suicide, and
though he continued to sound the
whistle, did not slacken speed, and
that the train was going at the rate
of % miles an hour, when the man
was struck. Eye witnesses to the
accident state that the train was
travelling very fast, and when
Skattaboe was struck h G was thrown
fully fifteen feet, and striking the
frozen ground, rebounded, falling
several feet distant.-Gazette.
