BULLET MEETS BULLET
IN BARREL OF WEAPON
Remarkable Incident of ARRAY
in Convict Camp.

BOSTWICK. Ca, Feb. 20.-A rather
serious shooting affray occurred at
the Morgan county convict camp near
here, when two guards, Moore ana
Bramlet engaged an a discussion oVer
some trivial matter. The argument
became so heated both men drew
guns and began firing at each other
from a distance OF about eight or ten
feet.
Moore received two wounds in the
head and Bramlet two in the right
arm. That both were not instantly
killed is perhaps due to very un-
usual occurrence, the like OF which
was never before heard of here, and
is without counterpart, so far as
known.
One of the belligerents was using
.45-caliber gun carrying steel
jacket bullet, and the other 3S-
calibre carrying a lead bullet. Both
were five shooters and had each been
fired four times. When the htth
shots were fired the bullet from the
.3S entered the muzzle of the 40 and
came in contact with the bullet OF
the AS that had proceeded about
three inches in the barrel on its way
out
When the bullets met they lodged
and had to be removed with punch
1t is thought that both men Will re-

country and when surrounded by
the gay twittering of the birds and
the smell Of the cows | will lay my
suit at her feet and he waved his
arm wildly at the gay thought.
Then he sprang from bed and gave
a rat tat at Ethels door.
Are you up. my dear he called
Well not quite SAID Ethel hastily
jumping from her downy nest.
Be quick cried Bernard ! have a
plan to spend a day near Windsor
Castle and We will take our lunch
and spend q happy day.
oh Hurrah shouted Ethel ! shall
soon be ready as had my bath last
night so wont wash very much now.
No don't said Bernard and added
In a rather fervent tone through
1 the chink OF the door you are
fresher than the rose my dear no
soap could make you fairer. =
Then he dashed off very embar-
rased to dress. Ethel blushed
and felt bit excited as she heard
the words and she put on a new
white muslin dress in a fit of high
spirits, She looked very beauti-
full with some red roses in her hat
and the dainty red ruge in her
cheeks looked quite the thing. Ber-
nard heaved a sigh and his eyes
flashed as he beheld her and Ethel
thourght to herself what fine
type OF manhood he represented
with his nice thin legs in pale
broun trousers and well fitting
spats and red rose in his button
hole, and rarther a sporting cap
which gave him a great air with
its quaint check and little flaps to
pull down if necessary. Off they
started the envy Of all the walters.
They arrived at Windsor very
hot from the jorney and Bernard
at once hired a boat to row his be-
loved up the river. Ethel could
not row but she much enjoyed see
ing the tough sunburnt arms Of
Bernard tugginY at the oars as she
lay among the rich cushions OF the

he represented

dainty boat. She had a rarther
lazy nature, but Bernard did not
know of this. However he soon
got dog tired and suggested lunch
by the mossy bank.
Oh yes said Ethel quickly open
ing the sparkling champagne.
Don't spill any cried Bernard as
he carved some chicken.
They eat and drank deeply of the
charming viands ending up with
merangs and chocolates.
Let us now bask under the
spreading trees said Bernard in a
passionate tone.
Oh yes lets said Ethel and she
opened her dainty parasole and
sank down upon the long green
grass. She closed her eyes but she
was far from asleep. Bernard sat
beside her in profound silence gaz-
ing at her pink face and long wavy
eye lashes. He puffed at his pipe
for some moments while the larks
gaily caroled in the blue sky. Then
he edged a trifle closer to Ethels
form.
Ethel he murmured in a trembly
voice.
Oh what it it said Ethel hastily
sitting up.
Words fail me calculated Bernard
horsly my passion for you is in
tense he added fervently. 1t has
grown day and night since | first
beheld you.
Oh said Ethel in surprise | am
not prepared for this and she lent
back against the trunk of the tree.
Bernard placed one arm tightly
round her. When will you marry
me Ethel he uttered you must be
my wife it has come to that | love
you so intessely that il you say no
l shall perforce dash my body to
the brink of yon muddy river he
painted wildly.
Oh don't do that implored Ethel
breathing rather hard.
Then say you love me he cried.
Oh Bernard she sighed fervently
