How He Thought Kings Should Die.

Cramer was Voltaire's Geneva
publisher. At rehearsal of one
of Voltaire's tragedies NJ. Cramer
was finishing his role, which was to
end with some dying sentences. Vol
taire, objecting to the manner in
which that death scene was played,
cried out in accents of scathing
scorn, "Cramer, you lived like a
prince during the four preceding
acts, but at the fifth you die like a
bookseller" Tronchin, being pres
ent, could not help in kindness in
terfering. IN. Voltaire," said he
deprecatingly, 'can you expect to
have gentlemen to be at the expense
of dresses and fatigue of getting up
such long parts if you thus upbraid
them? On the contrary, | think
they all deserve the greatest encour-
agement at your hands, and as to
my friend Cramer, declare that, so
far as | am a judge, he dies with the
same dignity he lived"
Voltaire raised his head and
glanced defantly at Tronchin.
"Doctor," he cried, "when you have
kings to kill kill them your own
way. Let me kill mine as l please"

A Cowardly Act.

Mr.. Frank Eichelberger, who
was waylaid and so severely
beaten near his home in Winston
county last week, was brought
to Macon last Saturday for
treatment by DR.. Minor, who
dressed his wounds and says he
will soon be well unless compli
cations set in.
The assault on Mr. Eichelber-
ger was caused. it is thought by
domestic troubles, he and his
wife separating some time ago,
and while he was returning to
his home from Louisville one
night last week several men
jumped in his wagon, and beat
him over the head with some
blunt instruments. The fact
that the mules that were at
tached to the wagon ran away
is what probably saved his life,
as the men who committed the
assault had to jump out of the
wagon to save themselves.
Mr., Fichelberger left this week
for s:the LWest, as the parties
threatened to kill him, and he
did not want to be involved in
a fued in which several lives
would probably be lost.

A New Labor Law.

Mr.. Sample of Holmes has in
PRODUCED a bill which he believes
will go a long way towards
solving the labor problem in
Mississippi and bringing about a
better condition of affairs be-
tween planters and negroes I'm
der contract for the crop season.
The prosecutions by the federal
government under the peonage
statutes have been a source of
much uneasincss to planters, re-
suItlng in general disturbance of
labor conditions, and in reality
causing many negroes to believe
that they can jump contracts
whenever they see fit, and Sc
cure immediate protection from
Uncle Sam. Mr.. Samples bill
on the subject is as follows:
Section. l Any person who
with intent to iniure or dcfaud
his employer, enters into a con-
tract in writing for the perfor-
nance of any act of service
which is to be performed within
fifteen months OF the date of
contract, and thereby obtains
money brother personal property
from such employer, and with
like intent and without lust
cause and without refunding such
money or paying for such proper
ty refuses or fails to perform
such act of service, shall on CON
viction be punished for obtain
ing money under false pretenses,
under the penalty fixed by law
for such offense. And the refusal
or failure of any person who en-
tiers into such contract to per
form such act or service, or re
fund such money, or pay for such
property, without just cause,
shall be prima facie evidence of
the intent to injure or defraud
his employer, and shall warrant
a convictionin all cases in which
the evidence, as a whole, does
not create a reasonable doubt of
the guilt of the accused"

KILLING IN WINSTON.
In Desperate Fight at a Dance Six
Miles East Of Louisville Friday
Night, Rye Fulcher is Instant
ly Killed and Ben Kitchen
Desperately Wounded

1t was learned this week from
parties attending court from the
edge of Winston and Noxubec
counties, that in a fight last Fri
day night at the home of G. r. D,
(Ri) Fulcher, about s miles east
of Louisville on the Macon and
Louisville, Fulcher was instantly
killed by Ben Alex Kitchens and
the latter seriously wounded.
1t seems that several of the
hangers on at the dance were
drunk, among them being
Kitchens, who was also in a
fighting humor and ANNOYED
those that were in the house BY
calling them out and cursine
them, finally catching hold Of
one of the boys and pulling him
out of the door and began to
abuse and curse him, when he
(Kitchens) was knocked down.
Fulcher came out of the house to
see what the row was about and
when told ordered Kitchens of
the place, at the same time fore
ing him through the gate. Kitch.
ems then asked Fulcher to walk
apiece with him, as he wanted
explain. They walked off about
thirty yards, and a few words
passed, when Kitchens pulled his
pistol, a Smith & Wesson, IS
calibre, and shot Fulcher three
times. Those that were on the
outside of the house immediately
rushed to thecombatants, among
them being Kitchens half broth
er, Jim Ethridge, and Fulchers
brother, Walter, both of whom
grappled with Kitchens for the
pistol, which was discharged
twice in the scuffie. The pistol
which by this time was empty,
was taken away from the broth
ers by outside parties, but Wal
ter managed to get out his knife
and attempt to cut Kitchens
throat, but was only prevented
by Kennedy wearing a stiff laun-
dered standing collar, which pro-
tected him.
About this time Ry Fulcher's
clothing were found to be on fire
from Kitchen pistol, and in turn
ing him over Walter Fulcher dis
covered his brothers pistol and
shot at Kitchens three times as
he ran off.
The next morning Kitchens
was found at the house of his
brother-in law, George Tucker,
and in a bad shape from a bullet
wond in hip and one in breast
and shoulder
Parties standing in yard claim
they saw Fulcher fall at first re-
port of gun, but Kitchens claims
that Fulcher knocked him down
and stood over him with the pis.
tol, when he wrenched it away
and shot him.
Fulcher was about 35 years OF
age and leaves wife and FIVE or
six children. Kitchens about rs
sears Of age and unmarried.
