A Negro Killed.

Mr.. II. L. Moody shot and instantly
killed Dan Leith, colored, on July 4 tn the
day of the barbecue and picnic. The
shooting occurred at an early hour of the
afternoon at a refreshment stand, Mr..
Moody was running in front of Turner,
Dorsett g. Co.'S store. Leith was
troublesome all day, being crazed with
cheap liquor. He was heard frequently
before the killing occurred cursing and
making himself generally of obnoxious on
the grounds where ladies and children
were present Some little time before
the killing, Leith strolled over to Mr..
other darkies. Taking up his stand right
near the refreshment booth he began to
pour out a long string of profanity and
foul vituperations, villihying an old man
who had just gone from the stand.
After listening to this foul TRADE for
quite awhile thinking the whiskey crazed
darkey would leave, Mr. Moody in JUS
tice to the ladies who might be near or
come to the stand, stepped to the side at
which Leith was standing and in very
gentlemanly manner requested him in
Difference to the ladies, to move off from
the stand to do his cursing. But the
''burst head the negro had been drinking
had aroused the very fiend incarnate in
his nature. No sooner had Mr.. Moody
made the request then the negro began to
pour a volley of oaths at him, and turned
with open knife towards Mr.. Moody to
al appearance with the intent to assault
him. But Mr.. Moody OWNED his pur-
pose and anticipated him. Quick as "a
fash he pulled his gun and sent bullet
crashing through Leith's skull. Leith
dropped where he stood, a dead man, and
another victim of rnn. Mr.. Moody
promptly surrendered himself and gun to
The proper officer of the law. He was
given preliminary hearing and released
on $4,000 bond pending the action of
the grand jury. Mr.. Moody is young
man well thought of all over the county,
and has the respect and admiration of
our leaiing citizens. 1t is the unpre-
jndiced opinion of all present that Mr.
Moody is not to be blamed for his share
in this occurance, he only did what any
sane man would do under the same cir
eumstauces, that is to protect his own
life at the muzzlc of the gun. We can
bit regret this episode but believe if
justice is done, and it will, that the grand
jury can but dismiss Mr.. Moody. The
affair can but be deplored.

Cold, Damp Weather Age
 gravates the Disease.

Cold, damp and disagreeable weather is dreaded by those sub- iect to Rheumatism, for the slight est change in the atmosphere or temperature is sure to increase their suffering. A great many who experience little difficulty from Rheumatism during the summer months are likely to be- lieve themselves rid of the disease, but with the first cold, damp day their aches and pains return and they soon find themselves firmly in the grasp of their old enemy, who tortures them more than ever.
 Several years ago was afflicted with what the doctors called Sciatic Rheumatism or Lumbago, suffering the most intense agony at times, and being confined to my bed about year, al though four of the best physicians Gone of whom was my father) attended me during my illness. They could give me only temporary relief, and think they tried about all of the remedies known to medical science, dosing me with strong medicines until my stomach got in such condition that could digest nothing, and neither myself nor friends had any hope of my recovery. was persuaded to try s. s. s., and before finishing the first bottle, found that had the right remedy. continued to

Why Kipling Avoids American Reporters

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
 'What made Rudyard Kipling avoid American interviewers?" said one of tho f'it was the manner in which the row with his brother-in-law in Connecticut was written up in the papers some years ago. This brother-in-law was sort of harmless black sheep in the Ballestier family and Kipling played the paternal act over him a bit too strong. It developed that he had made Rudyard run a lively foot race at the muzzle of an empty pistol, and in the excitement the angry author talked freely. Of course, the reporters made the most of the story, and Kipling was beside himself with wrath. He swore he would never again open his mouth to an American inter- viewer, and he has kept his word. That's the exciting cause but back of it all is the old hereditary hatred, which crops out re- peatedly in his stories. In one of them he remarks that certain character-Ortheris, believe-had no excuse for yelping, be- ing neither a cur nor an American. In another-that yarn about the sea serpent he has a chance at New York correspond
 ent and fiayS him unmercifully. Still an- other bitter thrust will be found in An Error in the Fourth Dimension,' in his very last volume of The Days Work It's the same with his poems, as you may read lily discover by glancing through The Seven Seas In short, he never misses an opportunity to say something spiteful about the unfortunate Tank, and occasion ally he Jugs in the opportunity, palpably, by the heels. Of course, all that is in- fnitely childish and in the worst possible

home when he might have gone to the war flor he is as much man of independent means as Swain. But she always seemed Just as pleased as ever to have him with her, helping her in all her skylarks, and talking to her as if she and he were 0 couple of college boys. Why, I've known that girl meet him-the other man-on Fifth avenue and borrow five dollars from him to buy caramels, and then he would tell the crowd about it and dun her, and they would all laugh and think it the biggest joke, and guy him about the way Christie 'touched him.
 'That was how things were going on all through the early summer of '9S. l suppose the other man made up his mind that it would be better policy to stay near her than to go off and seek laurels to bring back and lay at her feet. l must say, she wasn't the sort that would have seemed likely to want laurels laid at her feet; any one would have said she would prefer a football But you can never tell about a girl.
 They were at Shelter Island in the sum- mer, some of them, others at Sag Harbor and Marthas Vineyard; the whole jolly crowd of boys and girls seemed to be spend- ing the summer, or most of it, about the east end of Long Island. And assure you I never heard her once mention Swain's name all the time. Isn't 1t funny? Others of the crowd wondered how he was making out at Santiago-all knew he had gone there and hoped he was safe and all that, but Christie never once gave sign of caring whether he was dead or alive.
 Well, never expected 1t to end as it did. But l was there when the end came, and I'm glad 1 was.
 Ut was very simple. Just at that time toward the end of August a transport came with soldiers from Cuba. And over at Shel- ter Island everybody was talking about the soldiers at Montauk Point.
 "The other man was present-it was at the end of the yacht club pier-when one of the girls said, Christie, 1 wonder if Harry Swain will get leave and come over here from Montauk. Hes in that battal- ion.'
 Another girl said, If they don't give him leave, he ought to run the guard.
 ''Then an elderly man, who knew Chris tie, but was not exactly one of her crowd, said Harry Swain isn't in any fix to run the guard
 'It seems Chrlstie-well, her guard was run She started and said, Why?
 And the elderly man said, Fever
 Here my friend stopped and got up from the window seat, where we had been snug ly hidden from the wedding company, while a very pretty dance was in progress. lie now said he thought the happy couple were getting ready to leave.
 But" I said, you haven't finished your story"
 "Haven't I? What more do you want! The other man read his sentence in the paleness that came over Christle's face at that word Fever It broke up the party Christie lowered about Montauk CamI for days, and then suddenly went off to New York city. The next we heard of hei she was with Swains mother in Westches- ter county. Then we heard that Swain had been sent home to his family to be nursed, and

How Birmingham Looks
From the Madisonville (o.) News.

From the Madisonville (O.) News.
 In conversation with a number of the business men of the city, we found them well satisfied, prosperous and making money. The people of Birmingham arc mostly wage-earners, and, being liberal spenders, the money is kept in circulation. All lines of business are doing well, ana the city generally had that healthy, pros porous look that betokens good times. Even the newspapers were above the average, and were superior to most of the Cincinnati dailes in appearance. Birmingham is hay ing a steady growth and will no doubt be- come one of the leading cities of the south. An immense amount of northern capital is now being invested there. The new mills at Ensley City alone will cost nearly a million dollars.
