The town is filling with bursars, and
people should take all possible precau-
tion to secure their houses against their
entrance. Thursday night n burglar
entered Sheriff Colcord'a house and
had gathered up Mrs. Colcord'# gold
watch, Charley's silver watch, his
purse with $25 in it, and a dollar in
silver, when Mrs. Colcord heard him
and thinking it was her husband called
out to him. That frightened Mr. Burg-
lar and he dropped everything but the
silver and skipped. He" had cut the
scroll wire, unhooked the screen, and
walked boldly into the lighted room
through the open doorway. That same
night Mrs. J. M. Martin awoke about
1 o'clock and discovered a man looking
through the window. She screamed,
and before Mr. Martin could get out-
side ho had disappeared.
Everything is in readiness at the
grove on the Massey [claim, and
never before were grounds more
thoroughly prepared for a cele-

with awning. Barrels have been placed
inconvenient places over the grounds
in which will be kept ice water. Per-
fect order will h« insisted upon, and
should it be necessary at any time dur-
ing the day to use force to perserve
order deputies will be on hand to look
after that part. Plenty of seats have
been scattered over the ground, and
everything is especially arranged for
the comfort of the crowd.
The appointment is a good one.

The city council met last night and
took up the water works business. Mr.

ferent. The ordinance was read

go to a dance that evening, but did not
appear to know where it was to be.
My brother had gone ahead and my
father was following, so 1 told Russell
to walk around and talk i* me, as I
was behind with my work. By this
time father and brother were some dis-
tance ahead and Fredrick said he did '
not have time as he must go home to !
dinner I started on and ho grabbed
ury hoe and said. 'Lum d—n you,
I've heard that you said you were go-
ing to whip rue.' I said, Russell, that
is not so, I did not say it; go on away,
I don't want to hurt you and I don't
want you to hurt me. I was unarmed
and he had a pistol, lie called me a
liar struck at me and I warded oft his
blow, he struck at mo repeatedly, final-
ly hitting me in the face. By a quick
movement, 1 wrested the hoe from him
and struck him, felling him to the
ground. He got his pistol and rising
to his feet, leveled it at me, grasping it
I called to my father who ran toward
us, telling me not to shoot. I at last
gained possession of the pistol and
Fredrick turned and ran, I shot at him
twice, he fell shot through the hip.
Going up to him I asked him to shake
hands and let the quarrel drop. He be-
