JAKE BARKER HAS RETURNED.

Arrested in New York, But Released I'm
der Habeas Corpus Proceedings.
Jake Barker, who was arrested in
New York some two weeks ago,
charged with misappropriating or
refusing to pay over certain partner
ship funds. but who, under habeas
corpus proceedings was released,
reached Columbia Yesterday.
A firm known as Alexander, Bark
er & Co., during the late unpleas-
antness with Spain, undertook to
furnish Uncle Sam with divers and
sundry things. Jake was the Bark
er of hat firm. They did business
for awhile in Chattanooga, and
afterwards moved with the soldiers
to Huntsville, Ala, where they had
some large army contracts. They
made shipments to Cuba also; in
short they did land office business,
and it was supposed and rumored at
the time that their profits were
large. But when it came to a "show
down." the charge is that Jake
wouldn't show; hence warrant
was sworn out by one or more of the
other members of the firm under the
laws of Alabama, the Tennessee
statutes not covering the case.
Report has it, and has had it for
several weeks, that Barker's where
abuuts were unknown; that he had
captured the profits and was hiding
out from Justice, or from a settle
ment. These rumOrs started about
three months ago, or about the time
Barker made transfer of his prop
erty in Columbia. He denies these
reports, however, and claims that
his attorney here has been trying to
get statement of his account from
his former partners and effect a
settlement, but that they would not
settle. One of his partners stated to
a HERALD reporter that Barker,
through his attorney had offered to
pay them 10000, but as that was
considerably less than he owed
them, they .efused the tender. And
here Madam RumOr takes it up
again and says that Jake was hid
ing, hoping thereby to force
this settlement by keeping his part
ners ignorant of his whereabouts
and in doubt as to whether they had
not better take that than nothing.
The parties to the controversy do
not seem to be much disposed to
talk about the matter, and the
HERALD is not able to give what il
considers an accurate or authentic
account. Barker's statement is that
he is here ready for fair settlement
or ready to meet any civil or crimi-
nal proceeding that may be brought
against him. He says the reason he
has been away from Columbia is
because of important business
that he still has large contracts with
the government and is kept very
busy filling them. The idea thai
his whereabouts were unkno wn, bi:
attorney says is ridiculous. He (tht

FATALPISTOL DUEL.
Frank owen Killed AT Mt. Pleasant
by Dick Owen.
The Latter Also Badly Wounded
Ed McAfee, II Bystander,
Struck in the Leg.

Mt. Pleasant was the scene IL a
terrible pistol duel last Saturday
evening, rs a result OF which Frank
Owen, one Of the participants, il
dead Dick Owen, the other partici
pant, is dangerously wounded. and
Ed McAfee, "a bysta il suffering
from bullet wound in the leg. The
facts about the affair, aS given a
HERALD reporter by Deputy Sheriff
Harder, are as follow:
An ill-feeling had existed between
the two men for several weeks
About Christmas they had diff
Guilty, during which Frank was
struck over the head with IA stick by
Dick and painfully hurt. Later on
! Jake Owen, son of Frank, and Dick
| Owen engaged in shooting scrape.
Dick again got the better of his ad-
versaIy, one of the balls from his
revolver striking Jake in the leg.
Saturday evening shortly after six
O'Clock Frank and Dick Owen met
on the street between the square
and the depot. There were two or
three witnesses to the scene, but
they do not agree as to what first
took place between the two men.
One of them AYERS that few heated
words passed between them, but the
other says that not a word was pass
ed. Two of the witnesses say that
Frank Owen drew his pistol first and
fired several shots before Dick could
get his revolver from his pocket
Dick turned and ran about twenty
steps, and then, pulling his re-
vOlver, turned again and began fir
ing at Frank. Frank then turned
and ran towards the store of Yves
Watkins, colored. Just as he en-
tered the door to the store n bullet
from Dicks pistol struck him in the
right side between the second and
third ribs. He expired about twenty
minutes afterwards.
One of the shots from Franks re-
volver struck Dick in the abdomen
infiiCting dangerous wound. A
straw bullet also struck Ell McAfee
who was on horse in the street al
the time, causing painful flesh
, wound in the leg.
The two men were in no way rela-
ted to each other. Frank Owen rar

Curious Transference of Heat.

A correspondent of Nature. who is es-
sociated with the observatory at Tou-
louise. calls attention TO very singular
phenomenon. the scientific explanation
of which he seeks. Take a bar of iron
in the hand by one end. and plunge the
other end in the fire. heating it strong
ly. but not so much that the hand can
not retain its hold. Then plunge the
heated end in pail of cold water. I'M
mediately the end held by the hand be-
comes so hot that ii is impossible to
retain il in the fingers. This phenome-
non. said by the correspondent to be fa-
miliar to workmen in iron. is ascribeG
by them 10 some repellant action which
they suppose the sudden cold to exert
upon the heat contained in the iron.
which is thus driven TO the opposite eS-
tremitV.
