FORMER KNOCKED HIM TO THE

NO SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES
Difficulty Arose over Alleged Remark
That Wakefield Is Said to Have
Made About Nichols Selling Beer
in His Hotel.

George Nichols shot and painfully
wounded J. P. Wakefield Friday after
noon about 6 o'clock in the south
west corner of the square near the
Nichols Hotel
Coming just as the stores OF the
city were closing, when there was a
large crowd on the street, the three
shots which were fired drew in mo
ment's time surging crowd to the
scene of the shooting. The report
spread like lightning that Mr.. Mich,
OILS had been killed and Mr.. Wake
field had been seriously injured.
The difficulty arose over some re-
marks that Nichols said Wakefield
had made with regard to his mich
olso selling beer in his hotel. The
lie passed and Wakefield, who Is q
powerful man, knocked Nichols to
the pavement. AS the latter arose
1 he drew from his pocket his pistol
Wakefield grabbed the chair, In
which he had been sitting previous
to the difficulty, and as he advanced
on him with it, Nichols fired three
shots in quick succession, the first Of
which went wild, the second knocked
off piece of the right nub of thu
chair, while the third struck Wake
field in the ligaments Of the righ'
shoulder. The latter hit him with al
| of his might with the chair, knocking
Nichols to the pavement again, THU
time stunning him so that he could
not rise. Wakefield then walked intt
his bowling alley nearby and sa
down. Nichols was carried into thu

JURY IS UNABLE TO

MAJORITY FAVORED DAMAGES
FOR PLAINTIFF, MRS. vlR-
GINA BROWN.
GREA! EXPENSE OF The CASE

Seventeen Days Ago--WiII Have
to Be Tried Again, and Then Prob
ably Appeal to Supreme Court.

The jury in the Brown-Rainey-Dale
suit, after considering the evidence
and the charge of Judge Turner In
the case for two days, reported FRI
day afternoon that they were unable
to agree. 1t is understood that the
members stood seven to five in favor
of damages for the plaintiff,
The jury had had the case since
Thursday morning. They had come
back Friday morning to get further
instructions from the Judge, saying
that they would be able to give some
kind Of verdict by afternoon. When
they reported, each stated that they
were unalterably apart, and one said
that he did not believe that they
would have been able<to render a
unanimous verdict if they had con-
sidered the case until Christmas.
It was said that the majority Of
seven was widely divergent in their
opinions as to the amount of dam
ages that they thought should be
awarded to the plaintiff. The
amounts ranged from $500 to $4,000
They could come to no sort of agree
ment on this point even.
The case is the longest civil suit
that has been tried in the circuit
court for many years. It began on
Tuesday morning, July :, and the re
port of the jury was not returned un
til Friday afternoon. July "a, seven
