APPROVE SUIT INSTITUTED.

The directors of the Newport Oil Prospecting company held meeting Friday morning and ratified the ac- ton of the committee appointed for the purpose of bringing a suit against MaI&ng x COWan for non-fulfillment of their contract.
 Phillips x Campbell, the attorneys for the oil company are enthusiastic Ill their opinion that the contractors have not in any degree compiled with their contract and that by pressing the matter, the court in equity will give a judgment against them for the full amount of money that they have received, which sum will have to be returned to the stockholders of the company, unless the contractors should see fit to and find themselves better able to begin another hole and put it down two thousand feet, as they agreed to do in their original contract
 So the way the matter now looks the stockholders will get all of their money, or get a two thousand foot hole to show for the money that they have spent. No one expected to strike either gas or oil within a depth of one thousand feet, and all are very anxious to see what may be found below, between one thousand and fifteen hundred especially. The di- rectors mean business this time and the stockholders may yet have some thing to show for their money or have it all returned to them

MISSING MULE DEALER.

Jas. L. Johnston was up from his Bay Farm Wednesday, and stated that he had never found any reliable clue to the whereabouts of his brother John, who was last seen in Newport, with about $1 GOO in cash on his per son, on March 21 last It is thought he was murdered in Newport for his money.-Corning Courier.
 James Johnston was recently in Newport telling the same story, but he has nothing to corroborate his sus- picions, except the mysterious dis appearance of his brother, whom it seems was in the habit of ''tanking up," when enjoying prosperity. That he disappeared through foul dealing is secuted by officers and citizens gen orally here.

ACQUITTED OF CHARGE.

About o'clock Friday evening, the peace of the Kelley Row was broken by cutting scrape, which ended quite seriously for one, John Duncan, whom it seems assaulted Will Knight, in a dispute arising over debt.
 Knight defended himself with a knife and gave Duncan several slashes across the face that he will not soon forget. The former was arrested and on Saturday morning tried before Justice L. B. Harris, charged with as- sault with intent to kill. He was de- tended by Judge M. M. Stuckey and was acquitted.

ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.

Entrance to the residence of J. J. Martin on the corner of Walnut and Fourth streets was effected Friday night about twelve o'clock by two un- known men, who were discovered and frightened away before anything had been secured.
 Owing to the extreme heat of the evening Miss Pearl Martin and Mrs. M. K. UpshaW had not retired and were sitting in the parlor when noises were heard as of a door opening. They were not frightened however and paid little attention to the sounds. But when a few moments later they entered the hallway, Miss Martin could see two men standing between her and the rear door only a few feet away.
 Both ladies screamed and the two burglars tumbled over each other in getting to the back porch. The gen. tlemen of the house were alarmed at the same time and as the rear rooms overlook the back premises, it gave them a fine chance to see the intru- ders making their escape. Chas. Martin and Jay Sprigg had each man. aged to secure their revolvers and opened fire upon the retreating forms as they scrambled over the back fence The forr1oar fra1 four shots and the latter five, though none of them are supposed to have taken effect.
 The whole neighborhood was a. reused but the two men whose color is not known, made good their escape and as they left no clue as to their identity, it is hardly probable that they will ever be caught.

INSANITY CAUSED SUICIDE.

w. H. Pilkington, an aged man about whom little is known, though he had lived at Bald Knob for some time, committed suicide in that town, by shooting himself in the mouth Sunday morning. Death did not en- sue however, until Monday morning about one o'clock though his case was given up as hopeless from the start.
 He had written letters, stating that the people of Bald Knob believed him to have set the town afre and that he feared they would mob him. From this and other similar evidences of mental alteration he is thought to have made this attempt upon his life while temporarily insane.
 R. F. Drummond was telephoned for early Monday morning and or dered coffin, which was sent down on the noon train for the burial of the deceased

SEVERELY CUT BY HIS BROTHER.

Frank Holleman and Jim Holleman brothers, engaged in a fight Friday afternoon at the commissary of the Western Tie and Timber Company at Eight Mile. The difficulty arose over a debt which Frank claimed Jim owed him and hand to hand conflict en- sued. The latter was badly cut in both sides and down the entire left arm, his injuries being so serious that death may result.
 Frank Holleman has not been ar rested, but papers have been issued for him and are in the hands of the constable who has not been able to locate him.
