SHOT BY MISTAKE.

The fatal wOunding of Deputy Mar
shal Smith Childeis 5y Jacob Mcdowell,
a negro, at Providence, KY, Saturday
night, was the indirect cause of the
shooting of two travelling men. P. B.
Carter, of Chattanooga, and j. B. Barry,
commercial travellers, were shot and Sc
verely wounded from ambush by negroes
while driving between Dixon snd Proyi-
deuce with two other drummers. The
negroes who did the shooting evidently
thought that the statesmen were pursuing
Mcdowell.
Deputy Marshal Uhilders was shot
while attempting to arrest Mcdowell.
The negro was taken to Dixon by another
officer. Whie men Immediately gath
cred TO lynch Mcdowell.
Negroes of Providence, hearing this,
armed themselves and lay in wait by the
road over which the mob was expected
to pass. The travelling men soon came
along, and the ambushed negroes fired
on them and escaped. Mcdowell wss
hurried from Dixon to Henderson.
The mob, arriving at the Dixon jail
at 2 O'Clock yesterday morning, and 6nd-
ing Mcdowell gone, set out with blood
hounds to fod the negroes who bad fred
on the travelling meu. Will Mcdowell,
cousin, of the prisoner; Tom Fuqua,
Tom Miller and another negro were ar
rested yesterday charged with shooting
The travelling men.
The mob has not found the four ne
groes, and probably will not goto Hend-
ersOn after Mcdowell.

S. A. Reid mourns the loss of his
apple crop, which fell prey to the
touch of the meandering youth on
Wednesday night. Mr.. Reid had
carefully noted the growth of the
crop throughout the season, hav-
ing on one tree between three and
four dozen apples which gave pro-
mise of fipenine, but the yawninE
stomach of the imps who know no
law became wise to the fact that the
succuIent fruit was attaining an
age when it ~would~at least produce
a stomach ache, and that ended the
story. This is but one of numerous
depredations of a similar nature re-
ported, and it is to be regretted that
the youths of the city are starting
life in such manner.

The Leans Met Their Waterloo.

A game of ball Of more than pass
ing interest was played on the
Roosevelt grounds Tuesday after.
noon when the Fats and Leans met
in mortal combat on the diamond
and for three solid hours fought
for supremacy. -,
There was no kego beer on third
base as was the case in one game
played some three years ago in this
city, which may have accounted for
the winning of the game by the
weighty men. In the game three
years ago the Fats had an oppor.
tunity of getting the winning score
but one of the players got connect.
ed with the third base faucet and
positively refused to come home.
The score of the day was IL to 8
and the game throughout was
fraught with many brilliant plays
and good humor. DR.. c. w. Miller
who won fame in his early days as
twirler for the once famous Hurley
team, was on the hill for the slim
fellows, while the opposing team
tried out several men for the posi-.
ton. The hitting proclivities of the
Fats was what told, however, and
their scores we're all hard earned
At least all who came in where let.
ting off steam in Quantities which
attested the fact that they had
worked hard for the victory.
1t is probable a return game will
be played later, and q different score
is promised by the over.contiden,
bean-po aggregation.
