FIGHT MAY HAVE FATAL RESULT
Alleged Twitty's Skull Was Fractured
BY DorseY's Blows.

Gainesville, Ca, May "A fight be,
tween John Tucker Dorsey and Cur
tbs Twitty, which occurred Sunday
morning, and which was not regarded
at first more than slight difficulty, is
about to terminate very seriously.
Twitty is unconscious from frac.
tWe of the skull at the base of the
brain, with but little chance of re-
covery.
Dorsey is at large, and a warrant
has been sworn out against him and
placed In the hands of Sheriff Grow,
charging him with assault with intent
to murder. Dorsey is son of the
late Colonel J. N. Dorsey, while Twit.
ty is son of j. N Twitty, of Twitty
bill fame. The seriousness of the af.
fray was not known until Tuesday, the
matter having been kept very quiet.
The prominence of the families Of the
young men lends additional interest to
the unfortunate affair.
Dorsey is alleged to have inflicted
the injuries on Twitty with stick,
knocking his teeth out and fracturing
his skull. The difficulty oeurred on
the outskirts of the city at an early
hour Sunday morning.

To understand how to rest is Of more
Importance than to know how to work.
The latter can be learned easily. The
fornswR it takes years to learn, and some
people never learn the art of resting.
1t is simply change of scenes and ac-
tivities. Loafng may not be resting;
sleeping is not always resting; sitting
down for days, with nothing to do, is
not restful. A change is needed to
bring into play different set of facul-
ties and to turn the life into a new
channel. The man who works hard
finds his best rest in playing hard; the
man who is burdened with care finds
relief in something that is active, yet
free from responsibility. Above all,
keep good natured and don't abuse
your best friend, the stomach.
