agent in minor matters, and Mrs. Colt,
had a disagreement with him few days
ago that resulted in his dismissal.
Mai. McClung, an elderly gentleman,
was visiting Mrs. Colt Wednesday night
when Garnet appeared in an intoxicated
condition, He drew revolver and at
tempted to shoot Mrs, Colt, when Nc
Chung stepped in front Of her and re-
ceiyed the bullet. Garnet is distant

CITY years of age. He is native of
Virginia and fought in the civil war
with the Confederate army. Maj.

Poor Richard Jr's Philosophy

Every good lie gets bad when tod.
a second is lost every time a lazy
man looks at the clock.
No man takes a vacation who takes
bis work with him.
The man who can stand alone can
usually stand a loan.
Love wears the heart on the sleeve,
trade in the pocket.
1t is not safe to expect that the IN
expected will happen.
Money can afford to talk because it
is drawing interest.
He who looks before he leaps is
often satisfied TO stay where he is.
We are getting a fine lot Of com
plicated books on the simple life.
A mans battle in life depends very
largely upon his first engagement.
The big prizes are won by those
who have their heads full oftener
than by those who have their hands
full.
