K, of this city, was on provost duty at
Admission, Ala, in January, 1885, and
First Lieutenant John Mckay gives an
interesting account Of the first fight be-
tween Col. Colson and Lieut.. Ethelbert
Scott at that point on Jan. 10. Mckay
was an active participant and by his
bravery probably saved a number of
lives at that time. His story Is as fol-
lows
About midnight of the 18th, Capt.
O'Neil provost marshaD and Lieuts.
Beckman and Scott were eating at
a table together in the Mammoth res
taurant. Lieuts. Phelps, Crims and
myself were seated at another. Col. Col
son entered the restaurant and citizen
who was present cried: LOOK out, there
will be hell to pay now; Colson is after
Scott
Colson stopped Immediately in front of
the table where Scott was seated and
glared at him. Scott never raised his
eyes. Colsop then grabbed a chair by
to provoke Scott into noticing him. AS
that did not avail, he reached over the
table, and taking Lieut.. Beckman. by
the ear, twisted 1t until the blood came.
Scott then said 81 would not do that
He is friend of mine"
Colson then whipped out his revolver
and fired at Scott, who returned the shot.
Capt. O'Neil ordered his officers to dis
arm the men. Phelps tackled Scott, and
showing revolver in his face, made him
drop his gun. I grabbed Colson and
ordered him to surrender his weapon,
which he not only refused, but tried to
aim the revolver at me. / downed him,
both falling In q stairway. After Colson
had emptied his weapon trying to hit me
he dropped 1t. I then released him and
he reached into his belt and drew an
other forty-five caliber revolver. saying:
ST have got you now"
AS it was case of get shot or dis
arm Colson, I went at him hard ana
uounded him into insensibility, using no
weapon but what nature gave me. Phelps
and myself were unacquainted with Col
son or Scott and the report that we as
sisted Scott Is false.
The official report not only exonerates
| Int praises both officers for their bravery

Dockstader viii be able to announce "a

simply a precocious child; she Is not
a thoroughly drilled automaton, as
many children seen on the stage and

artist born with genius for the stage.
She comprehends her lines and feels
the emotions that inspire them. That
is what makes the artist The play in
which she appears is good, and her
support is from the first rank of the
profession. Mrs. Helen Avery Hardy
