noon at the home of Mr.. Clay
Cisco, accidentally shot his little
friend Clay Cisco, Jr., in the leg
few inches above the knee with
thirty-eight caliber pistol. For
tunately the bullet did not break
bone but made only a flesh
wound. Physicians were hur-
riedly summoned and the boy is
getting along. nicely. 1t is re-
ported that young Reynolds had
taken his fathers pistol from his
home without the knowledge of
his parents and not knowing it
was loaded and in the spirit of fun
pointed it at his friend and pull
ed the trigger. The little chap
is terribly upset over the acct
dent and it is thought this will
prove lesson both to him and

L. c. Littrell, of the Owen Coun-
ty Democrat; Will ]. Hampton,
of the New York World, and
other newspaper friends have
made of my name in connection
with the Governorship, was
doubtless intended only to evince
an act of friendly partiality, with
no expectation that it would be
taken seriously by me or any one
else, and as such | appreciate the
spirit that prompted the sugges-
ton, but I want them and all my
friends to know that, hon orable
as the office of Governor of this
good State is, my field of service
is not in the Governors chair,
and that I would not consider it
a promotion from my present
position.
"I hope none of my friends
think that have inspired or en-
couraged that suggestion, or lent
a sympat' etc ear or eye to it,
for l have not. yet owe two
years of undated service to the
people of this judicial district,
and I intend to give them that
without having my mind distract
ed by thoughts of what the flu
ture may have in store for me
politically, but, to be entirely
frank, if | shall feel that my SER
vice as Judge has been accept
able and that the party to which
I owe allegiance wants, and the
district needs, six years more of
my service, l shall very likely
ask the Democrats of the district,
at the proper time, to give me the
nomination and thereby permit
me to serve the people again in
the same way that / have ser
we'd them in the past, except as
that service may be improved by

fence, with the pledge given now
