Bad Conduct at Revival

Considerable disorder and mis-.
chief has been going on during a
holiness revival meeting which has
been IN progress at Shannon, three
miles south of PocaL ontas, during
the last few days. Last Saturday
night, it is reported that someone
threw an empty bottle into the con-
gregation which struck Mrs. w.
w. Rose, the wife of one Of the
preachers, in the back of the head,
inhicting a very bad bruise.
This refarious conduct should be
stopped. Officers are on the look
out and think they have a clue as
to the guilty party. No cause is
known as to why anyone should
wish to do any harm to the leaders

Serious Shooting ARRAY

A very serious shooting affray
took place in Clay county, near
Reyno, last Monday in which Jack
Reed, farmer, shot aud probably
fatally wounded Sam Dodd, his
neighbor. We have not been able
to get very accurate deteils IN re.
CARDS to the affair, but it is said
that the trouble was caused by Dodd
being too intimate with Reeds
wife. Reed shot at his victim FIVE
times, but only one shot took effect,
striking him in the back and rang
ing upward through the right breast.
Doctors who examined Dodd say he
has a very slim chance for recovery.
Reed went to Corning and surren-
dere1 to the proper officers. Dodd
formerly lived in Pocahontas and Is
very well known here.
