SHOT AND KILLED
AT BALL GAME
Woman Well Known in Mountain
Home Killed AT Atlanta
Last Monday.

Mrs. c. z. Stevens, wife of the
former Superintendent of the
Franklin mine, owned by r. P.
Chattin and at present of the
Bagdad Chase Mining company at
Atlanta, was shot while attending a
ball game on labor day. The ball
game was held in a pasture sur
rounded by dense thicket and the
bullet was a stray from the gun of
Jas. Wootson who was shooting at a
mark in the vicinity. She lived
but short time after the accident.
Rev. c. E. Mason left Tuesday
morning to conduct the funeral SER
vices which were held at Atlanta
yesterday.
Parties who have been at the hot
springs near Atlanta state that il
is strange thing that some one had
not been shot a long time ago.
Parties are continually shooting
in the woods with very little
regard for direction or human life.
This should serve as an example
to those who have been in the
habit of shooting and cause them tc

walked ahead to notify any teams
that might be coming their way
through the pass. They were 8
hours travelling 10 miles at one
