the companion shot a. bullet. which glanc-
ing from a tree trunk. struck the de-
PENDANTS dinner pail. The boy dropped
the gun and ran but young Swift, TO
whom it belonged, picked it up. Johnson
rushed across the street and in his efforts
TO wrench the gun from young Swift's
hand so bruised and tore the finger as to
make it necessary to have II amDutated
between TIE first and second joints
A the hearing Simpson was represented
by b. b. Dovener and stated that 1t was
not his intention TO hurt the boy, but
merely to reorimand him. and that he
was extremely sorry of the result of his
hasty action. Mr.. Swift agreed to with
draw the suit on the condition that
Simpson pay the squlre's costs and the

At Mooresville, Maury county,
Bruce Pickins, one of the prominent
young men of the county, and Miss
Beulah Orr were returning from
church, when the horse attached to
their vehicle began to kick. Miss
Orr got up to jump from the vehicle
and young Pickens dropped the lines
to hold her, whereupon the horse,
freed from all restraint, demolished
the vehicle with his heels and al
most killed the young couple. Pick
ems skull was crushed in several
places and his leg and arm were
broken, besides numerous other cuts
and bruises. Miss Orr had an arm
and leg broken. A long hat pin
was driven through her thigh. She
is otherwise injured, but it is
