The New Town society and the

terost to the people of Brunswick with
possibilities of usefulness to all class
es limited only by the support re-
ceived.
The New Town society, originally
an organization of few citizens of
New Town, founded for mutual use
lulness and mutual leneGt, never
has missed a weekly Monday night
meeting. It's membership has steadily
Increased, until it now has on its
rolls an active membership exceeding
40 members, electing FIVE uew mem

Of
YOUNG LAWYERS
D. W. krauss and l.. II,
Shepard to Practice
Together,

Leighton Shepard, the well known
year or two, has been taking the law
and literary course at Emory college,
has returned to the city and has
been warmly received by his many
Brunswick friends.
In connection with the return of
Mr.. Shepard comes the very interest
ing information of a new law firm,
which is to be formed at once and
which is to be known as Krauss &
Shepard, to be composed of Col D.
w. Krauss, the we'll known lawyer and
Mr. Shepard.
This announcement will be pleas
antly received in this city by the
large number of friends of both OF
these very gifted young gentlemen.
Mr.. Krauss has been a member of the
Brunswick bar for a number of years
and there are few young men who
have forged to tine front with more
rapidity, or more success than has
been the case with him. He has won
for himself an inyiable reputation, and
has clientele that would do credit
to an attorney OF many years prac-
tice.
Mr. Shepard, the junior member of
the firm, as stated above has just
made his bow in the lagal profession,
but he has done SO with distinction,
having stood at the head of his class,
in good old Emory. He is an able,
energetic and with all studious young
attorney, and it is safe to predict that
the future holds an abundance of sue
cess for him.
The News very cordially congratu-
lates the members of the new firm
and wishes for them the very fullest
measure Of prosperity.

Shooting.

Eastman, Ga, June 1G.-The coro-
ner has held an inquest over the dead
body of Dr. Buchan, the verdict being
"Justifiable homicide"
In addition TO the facts reported yes

diate trouble arose over a letter adj
dressed to the doctor by some won,
an in Atlanta.
A small SON, Tom, had gone and
brought the mail The wife saw the
letter before the doctor did and took
charge Of it, which was a second let
ter from the same woman and would
not let the doctor have it, He insisted
but she refused, so a tussle ensued.
in which he tried to force her to give
him the letter. She held the letter
last and Ogletree heard him say to
her in great fury that he would have
that letter or kill her the children
and himself, and burn the house down
on them all" About that time the
doctor and wife scrambled into Ogle-
trees ballroom. The wife calling or
letree to take the pistol she had so
the doctor could not carry out the
expressed intention to kill her.
The doctor then grabbed the hand of
his wife with his pistol and drew 1t

around her neck. Ogletree though
her throat was being cut, and he
jumped out of bed, took his own pis-
tol from unde.' his pillow and shot

mother.
Ogletree discwns any intention to
kill his faher, but says lie only in

his mothers life. The wife and five

Echo, Ore, June 16.-The news Of
the terrible clamity at Heppner is now
coming in and ia was an awful thing.
N. l. Tooker, who was at Heppner
when it was swept away it was the
first to bring authentic news.
He said that the torrents came at
$50 in the afternoon and most of the
people were at supper.
All were taken without warning.
Homes, stores and dwellings were
swept away and driven onward.
A los estimate places the deed at
( 800 ii is thought that the figures
will ay up when the full returns
are received.
The town had a population of not
less than $500 and not more than
h3lf could be found after the food.
The storm started a little after 8
o'clock and got worse from time to
time.
The water was more than fifteen
feet deep and came roaring like the
billows on the beach
Those who wefAon the streets saw
the water coming and made for the
mountains and many who did this
were saved.
Some of the fathers who saw the
water coming left their wives and
children to perish as there was not
a moment to spare. They did not
dare turn back because they knew
that it meant instant death
Those in mid-strcam could be seer
and their cries for help heard but lii
tie or nothing could be done an0
the fortunate ones could only stand
and see them go to their death
There was not less than hfty d,
the hotel and all OF them were lost
but the prOprietors escaped. Then
families were lost.
The entire residence portion of tht
city was lost but the business sec
tion being built of brick and on nIgl
places, was not so badly damaged.
The school house and the cour
house was saved but two churches
the Methodist and the Presbyterian
were destroyed.
A relief train sent from Dallas wll
reach here between now and monnin4
and the people are waiting for it 1t.
there is considerable want here al
ready.
Two hundred cotlins reached here
this morning and the work of buryIn:
the dead has started.
