The Really Nice Girl.
published by request. J


There is only one good and safe rule,
a girl should not allow man to kiss
her or even to hold her hand unless
they are engaged and have the fullest
intentions of marrying each other.
Looked at from the lowest level, it
is good tactics for girl to be reserv-
ed with a man. If he knows he can
kiss her without being engaged to her,
his respect for her fails.
A man likes best what he has to
work to win; Re doesn't want wom-
an to come even half way when he is
wooing her; the more difficult the
chase, the more he values her.
But carrying out line of conduct
from prudential motives in order to
make oneself more valuable ina mans
eyes, should not be enough for the
really nice girl. She must guard her
body because it is the temple of her
mind and character. To yield herself
in the very slightest way to a man she
is not going to marry is unworthy of
her mind and character. Her own
mind, her own character are to be her
long companions; they will be closer
to her always than husband or child
ren, parents or friends. To get the
highest and best out of life, she should
refine, purify and develop these com
panions. .-Maude Radford Warren in
Woman's World.

WILDCATTER
KILLED BY
DEPUTY SHERIFF
C0PPINGER COVE SCENE
OF UNFORTUNATE
SHOOTING

COppinger Cove was the scene of an
unfortunate killing Saturday night
when Deputy Sheriff Albert McCul-
Tough shot a man named Smith, while
endeavoring to arrest him.
1t seems that Smith had been selling
whiskey in this section, having it sent
to him at this depot, and selling to
parties of this place in various quanti-
ties, among them being to Sam and
Ed Curtis, brothers of Chas Curtis of
this place This caused him to swear
out warrant against Smith for boot
Logging, and Saturday night Deputy
Mccullough was sent from Jasper to
make the arrest He called for Curtis
as be went through here, and Curtis
went with him to the home of Jesse
Coppinger in Little Sequachee Cove
where Smith boarded and worked.
They arrived there about nine O'Clock,
and found him in bed. He was orde1-
ed to dress, and accompany the officer
to Jasper, and he got up talking and
laughing over the matter, apparently
with no idea of trying to escape. He
no sooner had got his pants on than he
made dash for liberty, plunging
through the door before the officer
could stop him, and running around
the house got out into the road, elud
ing Curtis, who was there with Ian
teln. Mccullough, however, caught
him here and a struggle ensued, Smith
striking the officer in the face, and
managed to get away again. He ran
on down the road short distance, and
then attempted to cross stone wall
into field. The officer called to him
several times to halt and discharged
his pistol in the air, but Smith kept
on, and as be was about to get over
the wall Mccullough fired at him, the
ball striking Smith in the hip. Smith
fell over ON the other side of the wall,
and died in half an hour. There was
no hemorrhage and it is supposed the
bullet went to some vital point, and
hemorrhage" was internal. Both Cur
tbs, who had sworn out the warrant
for his arrest, and Officer Mccullough
we're greatly disturbed over the unfor-
tunae outcome of their mission
The body was conveyed to Jasper in
a wagon by Chas. Curtis and Ed Cur
tis, and put in the court house where
inquest was held Sunday morning, and
Deputy Mccullough freed from all re-
onsibility as he was only tempting
to do his duty and make the arrest.
Smith has been living in this section
for about ten months, having come
here from some point west. 1t is said
his relatives originally lived in Sc
quatchie county, and that his real name
is Murphy. He went west with them
and got into some trouble, and return
ing to this valley, took the name of
Smith to conceal his identity. He was
a good naured, harmless sort of fell
low, and in poor circumstances, and
his one failing seems to have been this
desire to wildcat whiskey. The in
quest develoned names of several who
bought whiskey from him only recent
ly. .
A son of "Smith' came from the
Lock and Dam Sunday afternoon and
claimed his body. lis name was
Murphy. not Smith, and he hailed
from Bridgeport, Ala, where he was
wanted by officers for the same offense
of wild eating. He is reported as
having sold liquor to minors as we'll
as to those over age.
