FIVE ARE SHOT IN
 RUNNING FIGHT
In Family Row Charlie Brickey of Black River Uses His
 Gun Freely

A family fued of about years standing broke out afresh between citizens of Black River township last Sunday, and as a result Char lie Brickey shot George Ashby, Theo. Stone, and Riley and Bob Mulligan. None of the men are seriously hurt however.
 George Ashby is said to have received several small shot in his hip and had to call in a physician to dress his wounds, which were rather painful but not of serious nature. The other parties were only peppered with shot; their as- sailant being so far away that they were not hurt.
 It seems from reports that the wounded men were the aggress- ors. They had some trouble with Brickey about a year ago, and Sun day they renewed the old trouble with the result above stated.

ing to those who are behind it,
j. Myers of the Myers Cleaning com
psuy is the chief promoter of the big
undertaking.
"It is impossible TO say much abou.
it Just now said Mr.. Myers yestor
day, "hut it is true that there is such
a movement on foot. Tho enterprise
will mean about S250,000. We have
more than 100000 Of the money now,
and we also have assurances that the
remainder will bo subscribed.
"We have an ideal site in view on
the west side with railroad trackage
When the company gets going it will
do an interstate business and will han
die its volume by the carload. 1t will
be an immonse Institution and will be
equipped as no laundry plant in the
west is equipped.

east bench number Of new additions
have been placed upon the market and
il is believed that tho demand for homes

Firms dealing principally in the build

Two causes contribute 10 the general

homes. In the first place the popula-

upon strictly modern places or abode.
In the second place, there is a general

said of modern homes can also be said
of apartment houses. II is reported that
IL is next 70 impossible 70 find vacant
apartment in any modern apartment
house in the city and that homes in
houses now building are spoken for in

Another feature of the real estate
market at the present time, is the un'

and gardens IN the county and it is
predicted that the greatest movement
in this class of realty in the history Of
the county is now on.
