a few minutes. Just you steer by that
star up there and you'll be all right.
The boy did so, and for few min

OF the boat instead of ahead.
Then the lad raised his youthful
voice and shouted excitedly:
II say, sir. como and give me an
other star. I've passed that one!"

Octogenarian Feud =.
Leader and Son Shot


PIKEVILLE, KY, Feb. 9.--Louis Hall,
eighty-six years old, one of the most
noted feud leaders of the Kentucky
mountains for the last half-century,
and his son, Morgan Hall, were killed
here by George w. johnson, h constable,
who had u warrant for the arrest of the
father on charge of selling liquor
without license. Age had dimmed the
sight Of the mountaineer, and he was
not quick enough for the constable. The
son was shot down when he attempted
to go to the aid of his father
The elder Hall had often boosted that
he had killed more than a dozen men in
his day. He maintained to the end mat
dead man could hurt no one, and that
he always beat the live one to IT, when
battle began. He had been severely
wounded many times.
The fame of Hall extended into West
Virginia, where he had many enemies
and friends.
