FEUDIsTS' FATAL FIGHT. {.
Woman Shot and an Assailant Wound
ed-Boy's Escape.

A dispatch from Huntington, w. Va, says:
The settlement across the Big Sandy river
from Yorkville was the scene of fight
Monday night in the feud between the fam
fly of John Wallace and the Curry broth
ers in which one man was fatally wound
ed The Currys demanded liquor at Wal
lace's saloon, but were refused because, II
is alleged, they were already intoxicated.
The Curry brothers then began shooting,
and Wallace closed his saloon. Later the
Currys, with a crowd of followers, went
to Wallace's home, demanding that Wallace
come out. When Mrs. Wallace told them
her husband was not at home the crowd
broke in the windows whereupon Mrs.
Wallace fired, fatally wounding Thomas
Curry.
The crowd then began to tear down the
Wallace house, and seizing young broth
er of Mrs. Wallace. they bound him, hand
and foot and placed his head on a log.
1t is said one of the Curry brothers was
about to decapitate the youngster when
Wallace fired, and the crowd scattered,
leaving the boy unhurt.
The Curry party again attacked Wal
lace's house, and Mrs. Wallace was shot
in the leg and In the shoulder. She rode
to Louisa, KY, and the sheriff and depu-
the trouble.
Wallace escaped to Yorkville, but all OF
his live stock was killed by the mob. 1t
is estimated that about 800 shots were
fred and that ten members of the mob
were seriously injured. A reward OF 81 ,O00
has been offered for the apprehension OF
any member OF the mob.

was ignorant both as to the contens
of the documents and the individuals
named in them. He explained that he was
so accustomed to receiving legal papers that
he really had not given this matter serious
attention. He had merely noted that the
sum of $350O00 was mentioned, and that
the names Fuller and Coudert appeared
before passing it over to his attorney. lie
said that he had never heard OF either
Fuller or Coudert before, and that the whoie
matter was "all Greek to him.
Mr. Lawson issued a signed statement
last night, which throws little light upon
the origin or nature of the suit or suits
against him

point where we first feel it. Is it a
headache, backache, a sensation of
irritability or twitching and uncon
trOllable nervousness, something
must be wrong with the head or

the time the real trouble very often
centers in the womanly organs. In
nine cases out of ten the seat of the
difficulty is here, and a woman
should take rational treatment for

DR.. Pierce, during a long period
