HE ATTEMPTED TO
 KILL HIS FRIEND
But Ben Eddings Received BuI-
 let in His Heart
DIR. WILLIAMS BADLY SHOT
Shocking Tragedy Occurs at Center Hill in Limestone County-Physi- clans Think That Dr. Williams
 Life is Not m Danger.

Athens, December 10.-(Special.) IA shoot ing affray occurred in the eastern part of this county late last evening, which cost Ben Eddings his life and caused the fear ful wounding of Dr. J. w. Williams, a prominent citizen and physician of Center Hill.
 Dr. Williams and Eddings live in the same neighborhood and had a difficulty some days since in which Eddings got the worst of the TOW.
 Late last evening while the doctor was returning from a professional visit he passed number of men on the highway, who were trying to get Eddings to go home, and as he lived near by the doctor, the men prevailed upon him to take the drunken neighbor home. He at first declined, as Ed dings was a man of dangerous temper, and he did not want trouble, but the night be- ing cold and the man in condition not to reach his home, the physician agreed, and dismounting placed the drunken. man on his horse, and he on foot, they started for the homo of the physician. Eddings began to curse Aed row with the friend who was helping him home, and several times asked the physician if he was armed, and was told
 
 knife, and Eddings said that if he was they would shoot their difficulty out at once. He was prevailed upon by the physi- elan to keep his temper and have no trouble. Finally the drunken man refused to ride further, and dismounting, he drew from his pocket a Colt fl, and the doctor seeing he was going to shoot made an effort to grasp the gun but was not quick enough, and the shot took effect in the left breast of the physician, passing through his body and lodging in the back. Dr. Williams being the larger of the two grappled with the would-be murderer and taking his pistol from him, fired a shot Into the person of Eddings, killing him in- stantly The doctor was found and carried home, where medical aid was given him, and it is not thought that he will die.
 Eddings comes of a prominent Tennessee family. He proved to be the black sheep of the family and served three years in the penitentary at Nashville during his young CT days for horse stealing, and has always heen considered a dangerous man.

AMUSE EN IS.

Notwithstanding other attractions in the city Hoyts "A Milk White Flag was greeted by a good house at the Jefferson Theatre last night. The comedy which is one of Hoyts best, is bubbling over with genuine humor and never fails to amuse.
 The company presenting it is not up to the standard that the advance notices would lead one to believe, but the individual work of the actor is a secondary consider alton in Hoyts plays, all of which are bright and sparkling.
 The ridiculous situations which the com sdy presents are ludicrous in the extreme and although somewhat old it is really a relief from the modern farce comedy of the hour.
