A Poor Mans Wealth

Consists in what he saves from month
to month. Quite often we hear men
say that they are too poor to buy Il
home but they are paying from Sl2
to $50 and $25 per month rent. You
will always be poor if you keep on pay
ing rents. Now just stop and think;
if you are paying $4,000 per month
rent which means $4,000 a year, you
are paying six per cent interest on
$4,000. 90 or if you pay $15 per month,
$4,000 year, you are paying six per
cent interest on 100000, or in most
cases you are paying II per cent in
terest on the value of the house in
which you live.
Let us suggest that you buy a home
worth 100000 and pay $4,000 per
month or $4,000 per year and hire all
the money, and pay six per cent inter-
est, you reckon $4,000 for interest
and you have $4,000 towards paying
for your home, or if you buy home
for $l500.O0 and 1--WE have some very
fine cottages for less than this) you
pay $1,000 per month, $4,000 per
year, hire all the money and pay six
per cent interest, you have 5000 to
pay towards your home. You will not
have to pay this long before you own
your home and are independent. You
remember the story of the old gen.
tleman who told the young man if he
would be rich to own his own home
and everyone's else he could.
Now what you want is to own your
home first. We have three houses on
So. Main street, cottages, and not one
of them cost more than $l500.O0. We
have Others in most any location from
100000 up.
Don't forget to call and see us. We
are glad to show you any and all we
have on our list for sale, even if you

GIRL WAS WILLING
But Fay Would Not Take. a liz
cense Issued by Mistake.

West Union, o., July 28.-Bur-
dick Hughes and LIZZIE Patterson
and George E. Fay and Blanche
Irwin, two young couples from
Lewis county, Kentucky, drove
into town yesterday, and upon in
quiry were directed to the Probate
office, where Hughes announced
they wanted marriage licenses.
Judge Mason swore Hughes, and,
after putting the long list of ques-
tions, handed him his license. He
then repeated the performance with
Fay, during which Miss Patterson
was heard to say; "Oh, Blanche,
do you know what they're doing?
They're gettin' license for you, too, "
"Well, replied Miss Irwin, with
a saucy shake of the head, 81 don't
care. Won't it be nice?"
BY this time Fay was aware that
he was getting into it, too. Where
upon he informed Judge Mason that
he did not desire a license for him
self, and that he thought he was
only swearing him as a witness.
The license for Fay was Cancelled,
and the quartet proceeded to the
Office of Mayor Shumaker. The
groom refused to pay the 81 fee, and
the couple left the office.

USED A POP.
Miss Fannie Goodwin Shoots
Byron Allegree at Fairview.
Claims He Had Been Making
Sighting and Annoying
Remarks.

Miss Fannie Goodwin, a respec-
table and well connected young
woman who conducts millinery
store at Fairview, shot and wounded
Byron Allegree Saturday afternoon.
Miss Goodwin claims that Allie
gree had been annoying her with
his attentions for some time and
when she refused to allow him to
visit her he began to write insult
ing things on her door, make slight
ing remarks about her in her hear
ing and follow her about when she
appeared on the street. He became
so obnoxious that she seldom APP
peared on the street without an es-
cort. On Saturday she started to
dinner in company with Mr.. J. Cal
vim Layne, with whose family she
boarded. About 1880 o'clock she
met Allegree in front of Wade's
store and he asked her a question
insulting in its meaning. Layne
stopped and asked Allegree what
he meant by casting reflections upon
the lady. Allegree replied, what's
it to you? At this point Miss Good
win, who had pulled apistol, said to
Mr.. Layne, "Step aside, Mr.. Layne,
I'll protect myself" and pointed the
pistol at Allegree with both hands.
Allegree said, "Shoot if you want
to. Crack down" She took him at
his word and pulled the trigger.
He was hit squarely In the breast,
but did not fall. Without attempt
ing to resist, he again said, Shoot
again"
Mr.. N. Wade who was standing
in his door had run at the shot and
thinking she had hit him Miss Good
win asked Layne, Wonder if l
missed him and hit Mr.. Wade?"
Allegree was bleeding by this time
and Layne told Miss Goodwin not
to shoot any more.
Allegree started home but had to
be assisted, as he became weak
from loss of blood.
Physicians were summoned and
removed the ball from under his
right shoulder blade. 1t went
straight through his body and lung.
He is an unmarried man about IS
years old, a son of the late Col. w.
r. Allegree.
Miss Goodwin is about 40 years
of age and is a daughter of the late
Jesse Goodwin, of Caldwell county, |
and a niece of Capt. w. S. Goodwin,
of this city.
She promptly surrendered and
was put under bond by Esq. Par
ker and her trial is awaiting the
result of Allegree's wound.
Allegree recently worked in one
of the tobacco factories of this city.
Miss Goodwin also formerly lived
here, but has been in Fairvlew
about seven years.

FATAL FIGHT.
A Scandal Leads to a Bloody
Tragedy at Lafayette.
Will SouthaIl Shot Dead And His
Brother Disables His
Slayer.

A bloody tragedy occurred over
the Tennessee line from Lafayette
on July 81, in which Will Southall
was killed and Pet Clardy badly
hurt. There have been conflicting
reports, but the following version is
believed to be the correct one: .
The parties to the affair belong
to two of the most highly respected
families in that entire section and
the whole matter is an occasion of
surprise and shock to all. The
Southall and Clardy families live
on adjoining farms, the houses
being within half a mile of each
other. A negro who was with Will
Southall at the time the shooting
began claims that Clardy first ap-
peared about eight feet from them,
while they were at work in the field,
emerging from thestall weeds, and
that he called out to Southall threat
eningly: 80 you are not going to
marry my daughter after running
her?" Southall replied: II didn I
ruin her." ''Well, you'll never
ruin another replied Clardy,
bringing his gun to his shoulder.
The darkey then ran, but imme-
diately after heard the report of
Clardy's gun and Will Southall call
ing to his brother Charley, who was
about 100 yards away, that he was
shot and wanted help. Clardy shot
three times, his gun being loaded
with turkey shot, every shot taking
effect in Southall's abdomen, reduc-
ing that part of his body to pulp.
Charley Southall ran to the assist
ance of his brother, and as he came
up Clardy snapped the gun at him,
but it failed to go off. He then
struck Charley Southall with the
gun, knocking him down. Southall
staggered to his feet, wrested the
weapon from Clardy and beat him
into insensibility with it and a big
rock, battering his skull and leav-
ing his face a mass of raw flesh
and blood. Believing Clardy was
dead, he then took his brothers.
body in his arms and started for
the house.
An inspection of the ground
showed that Clardy had advanced
an old gully, the edge of
which was lined with tall weeds,
which kept him out of sight until he
was within about eight feet of Will
Southall, when he stepped into view
and the tragedy took place. Will
Southall had no chance in the world,
as any of the three shots fired into
him would inevitably have killed
him.
Pet Clardy, the man who did the
shooting, lies at the point of death,
mis- head and face swathed in ban
1anges. He has stated that whether
ne lives or dies he did not want
Charley Southall prosecuted, as he
had done only what any other >nan
