This Mr. l'ittninn declined to do. //nrper charged him with having treated his father badly, when ho was in 1 exas, which being denied. Harper gave him the lie, and then oursod him aud called vile opltheti. Dan told him ho would take it a B he was unarmed, and lie know that Giluioro was armed. 'I uat if ho would dis arm himself, ho would defend himself Balaam hearing of tho dilliculty cami hastily up, asking ••What’s tho matter?

Gilmore then hacked down the atroot to wards the mill,reloaded his pistol,aud made his escape through tho Held. An attempt was made to raison party to pursue him, bu it was then growing dark, aud it was aban donoc*. Other oflorts have been made since, but so far they bavo boon futilo, nnd Gilmore is still at largo.

Dan was in iron!. Dr. Hiller and Harper Gilmore rode up in a bnggy. Harper spoke to Pittman rolativo to somo matter I did not understand. Not snro expression ho used. One wasasse-ting the othor denying, Didn’t oatcli toiuark preceding dispute. Little in clined, whilo not angry, to bo excited. Neith er appeared to ho what you might term an gry. The horses—I don’t know whotber Dr. Miller drovo off or horses started- went short distance and stopped, whon first con vorsatiou was going on. Buggy stopped ug iin, Harper got out, came around to back °l buggy, renewed couvorsatiou. Impossi ble to relate all said —a great deal was said. 1 can stato what I do recall. 7/arpor said: "We have bolrieudedor dono favors for you in pust. I don t want you to hitch horses to tel ephone polo any more.” Dan Pittman Baid: 1 hat s all right. Balaam was not present then. Something olso said don’t recall what. Harper said: "You triod to rim over old man while 1 was in Texas.” Pittman’s ro- a difficulty and got between thorn, saying, "Hoys, stop this; dont havo nny trouble; it’s a mattoroi nothiug." I told Harper to got buggy and go on. About this timo I tried to lako hold of Harper, and ho said: “Don’t put your hands on mo." It grow worse, langnago more nggrnvivted. Pittman hadn’t dono any- thing to provoko Harper that I saw on that occasion. Harper cursed him sevoroly. Pitt man said, after Harper had itBcd^sevcro lan guage, that it he would put down his pistcl that ho would not tnko that. Harper said, "You don’fknow I have a pistol." Pittman said; “1 havo Been it.” Harpor said it was a d -d lio. I repoatedly urged Hatpor to get in buggy. Dr. Miller called him to get in buggy, 1 think be started to buggy. Pitt mau changed position. Harper said, "Just draw it, and I will rniiko an angel of you Pittman said ho hud no wonpon. Harper would not turn haok to him. I walked around anil stood in livery stable door. All parties changed positions. They came over nearer to mo. Pittman was near stable door, Harper was further down street, direction, mill. I thought ninttor would blow over. D damn Pittman came vory rapidly around corner stuble, appnrontly exoitod. He camo ns though he had been in a run. He used this expression two or throo times: What’s the matter hen?” I saw no weapon, t was so quickly done I could soarcely see anything d sclosed. Looked excited. Har per, I was satisfied would not lot him go to him. I stopped in B ido stable aud as I did so istol fired. Did not sou nny shooting. Har per retreated nnd either said stand back, or lon’t comoon mo. I was almost iu a line lith them. Four or five shots were firod Host of my reeolleotion four, Did not sec lluiper Gilmoro after shooting. 8nw Pitt man boys, botli complaining. Hnlaum either said I am shot or killed.

On Sunday morning a very largo concourse assembled at tho Baptist church, where sol- om.i iunbral services wore held, cODducted by ltov. II. A. Ilodgon. A solemn awe rested upon tho vnst assem biage, and all scorned dazed nnd bewildered by the awful spectacle beforo them. Two unerals at ouo time was porhaps never wit nessed beforo in Sandorsville. After tlio plaintive notes of tho sad funeral songs had died away, Air Hodges announced his text from Rev. G chap., nnd 10 verse. In his sermon the proncher earnestly in veighod against the iniquitous liquor (raffia ,ud charged tho awful Boone before the peo pie, upon alcohol. Ho said uo was a oiti ten of Sandorsville, aud ol Washington county, nnd ho ielt that odium was oast upon ns ns a poople, by tho monster ovil alcohol, whose ageuoy has caus- od this groat orimo and sorrow. This sol emn arraignment ot this parontof ovils, pro duced a profound impression upon his hear ers. Tho sormon ended, and uolomn prayer being offlerod by Rev. F. L, Adams, tho prouession through tho rnin then marohed to tho coiuotory, and tho two brothers who met death together,were together laid to rest. May Sandorsville never again witness so siul a scone.

Some years ago the Evening Nows, tti dis cussing electricity as a healing agent, alluded to tlio Electropoiso, aud so phenomenal urn! wonderful huvo been its ctiros tlmt tho repu tation of tho littlo instrument is now echo ing all over tho country. A well known case in Augusta hns been completely cured by the Electropoise, and tho following interview from such a woll known, reliable and promi nent man as President William O, Sibley, ol tlio Sibley Mill, must deeply impress, if not entirely convince, al! who read it. Mr. Sibley was perfectly willing to give his testimony to the Evening Nows about the Electropoise, lie said ho had been a great sufferer Irom sciatica lor live yoara before lie began using tlie Electropoiso. For two whole years be bail not been free from paiD, anil at times tho sciatic pains had been so severe that ho would jump out of bod in liis sleep n cd wake to iiuil himself on the lloor in great agony, lie spout much money in the North for special medical treatment, and was sixty- seven times cauterized with a white-hot iron on different parts of his body. The treat ment was almost as tenible as the solution itsolf, uud when he read that a partner of Gen. Alger, the great Republican' politi cian of Detroit, had paid $5,090 und a phy sician’s expenses out to California as his joy- i'ul reward for cure irom soiatioa, ho deter mined to try tho Electropoiso. “How long bus that been, Mr. Siblej?" "A year ago, and you know yourself my condition beloro that time; I could not walk to my office, nr even across tho street; I was helpless and had to go in my buggy overy- wliero.” ' J Mr. Sibley’s statements are romarknble, but there is iio doubt of their correctness and the cures mailo by tho Eloclropoiso are indorsed by all physicians who examine thorn.
