he stroked her fair hair one Sun

Delta has started in on an era Of build
ing such as has never been known in its
history. more houses going up now than
ever before and many are waiting for
help and lumber to begin work. There
has all year been scarcity Of residences
and even rooms were at times impossi
ble to be had. Store rooms were simply
beyond securing. Many intending
settlers have had to move on for want
Of place to live. Neither in town or
ont in the country has there been
houses that could be rented Tor any
price and the only way to get shelter
was to buy and push out those occupy
ing. Several parties have had to put
up stables and move into them and
await the building Of residences. Two
or three Of the principal business men
Of the town are now living in what will
be their stables. awaiting the compile.
tion OF their residences AMI others are
expecting the came fate to overtake
them in the near future. The lumber
dealers had to hustle to keep up with
the demand fer building material.

AN ARRAY AT CLAYTON.

Special Correspondence Of Gazette Gnd Journal.
Clayton, June 10. "A desperate as
sault took place in this town at mid
night Saturday, in which three prumi-
nent citizens were the participants.
One of them is member of the LHgis-
latrIre. another u county constable and
the third business man on tho main
street OF Clayton.
Martin Warner, the business man,
was in Wilmington last Saturday and
returned home on the late afternoon
train, and on the s. l3 p N. train,
which did not arrive until between 10
and IL O'Clock on account OF ain acct
dent, was Constable James u. Wright,
also of this town. For some time past
there have been hard feelings between
these two men.
Waiting tho arrival of the late train
at the station here was Mr.. Warner,
and as he saw Constable Wright alight,
he invited him and Representative
John Hutchinson, who was also there,
to his place Of business, saying he
wished to soc them. The three men
reraired to the place, and on entering
Warner shut the doors, and after a few
moments conversation struck Mr..
Wright II singing blow full i'll the
face knocking him senseless on the
floor. Warner thon kicked and pun
melod Wright all over tho face and
body. Representative Hutchinson in;
terferod and tried his best to pull
Warner off his victim, but was pushed
aside and warned by the infuriateC
man to keep hands off or be would 70
| eeive the same dose Mr.. Hutchinson
ran out to summon assistance, but b!
the time help arrived tho infuriatet
man had finished beating his man ant
coolly walked out oref the streets 0
town, leaving tho unconscious maj
lying on the floor.
Mr. Wright was terribly bruised ant
DIR. G. q. Harmcnson, who is attend
ing him, says ne is in 4 very bad shape
but will recover.
The matter was reported to the Stat
authorities and IL warrant for Warner
arrest for committing murderous as
sault, was issued by Squire Cooper q
smyrna and placed in the hands of
costable. Warner left town on an earl
train Monday morning and it is NJ
known where ho is at the present tint
