fight between Eugene Durr, the French
man VINO has been working at the stone
masons trade in Aldridge, and Jack
of Horr. The men were intox-
lcated and fought ove a few remarks
made. Durr was cut badly below the
waist n the wound a Sc
rlous one. After Durr was wounded he
sprang to his feet and seizing the hand
OF mas opponent he drew the sharp weap-
on across the breast and arms of Shep-
nerd, cutting some very dangerous
wounds The two men were taken in
charge and kept quiet until help and
treatment could be had. DR.. Deckman
OF this place and DR.. Mckay of Jardine
were called and rendered treatment, and

nabar, 9 came and took the men in
charge. Both the wounded men being

Saturday was pay day in Aldridge,
and as usual it brought in a good num-

Horr the team became frightened and
ran away, tearing the wagon to pieces
and scattering goods and men by the
way. The team was finally stopped by
an attempt to pass a tree by going on
both sides Of it at the same time.
