NARROW ESCAPE.

Mr.. L. w. Howell has received
a letter from his daughter, who
lives in Birmingham, Ala, giving
an account of the narrow escape
which she and her family had
during the recent cyclone in that
city. The storm tore down sew
eral houses Immediately across
the street from her home, and
then cut through the yard of her
house only about ten feet from
the house, tearing up trees by the
roots and blowing all the out
houses to pieces. The family were
badly frightened but luckily
escaped damage.

SHOOTING AFFAIR.

On Monday night, shortly after
6 o'clock, shooting scrape oc-
Cured between Hon. James A.
Violet and Capital Policeman
Wingate Thomson, in which
the later narrowly escaped death,
the powder burning his face and
nose.
1t seems that Mr.. Violet is the
attorney for Mrs. Geo. B. Thom-
son, in her suit for a divorce.
Mrs. Thomson's husband is a
brother of Policeman Thomson.
There has considerable bad
blood arisen between the parties,
as Mr.. Violet is prosecuting the
case vigorously.
At the time of the shooting Mr..
Violet was standing on the st.
Clair street bridge, talking to Mr..
John Hale (whose wife is wit
ness for Mrs. Thomson). He had
just informed Mr.. Violett that
the policeman had stated to his
wife that Violet was afraid to go
to the place appointed for taking
depositions.
Just then Thomson passed on
a street car, and, after going a
short distance, got off and came
back to where the two men were
standing, with his hands in his
pockets.
As soon as he came near enough
Violet asked him if he had made
the statement as related by Hale.
Thomson replied that he had
not. Violett remarked that Hale
had informed him that he had.
Thomson then asked Hale if he
had said that he (Thomson) had
made the statement to him. Hale
said no, but was going on to make
a further statement, when Thom-
son turned and said to Violet
that he had told id lie and
knew it TO be id lie. This
SO incensed Violet that he at
once drew a pistol and fired point
blank at Thomson's head. Thorn
son lodged, and the ball cut so
close to Thomson that it burned
his face and nose.
Violet was arrested by Police
man Larkin and taken to head
quarters where he gave bond in
$500.
After the shot Thomson told
Violet he could kill him if he
wanted to, but that ne was un-
armed. Violet then said that
he would not shoot again and did
not. He claims, however, that,
from Thomson's attitude that he
had his hands on, pistol in his
pocket.
