Welch's Statement.
Conductor Welch says that the par
ty he shot at Willacoochee last week
with his associates was stealing
a ride on the rear ot
his train. He discovered them and
compelled them to pay their fare.
When the train reached Williacoochee
they got off and began to curse him.
He leaned over the railing to see who
it was cursing when he discovered
what he supposed to be a pistol point
ed at his head. He drew his revolver
and fired at the one he thought was
about to shoot him and young Moore
caught the bullet in his leg.

Editor Breeze:
Prof. McGown of Van Wort, 0., a
young man of brilliant intellect, and
a teacher of great experience and un
surpassed success, and whose manly
and moral example is such as to make
him a pattern for all with whom he may
associate, is coming south to cast his
lot with the southern educators. He
will open school at this place the first
Monday in March. We hope that the
peop’e of this place will avail them
selves of this opportunity of' sending
their children to such a teacher.
Subscriber.
In the debate on the money questiou
last week in the house, Mr. Turner
was chosen from the entire congress to
close the argument for sound ntonoy.
Mr. Crisp had just preceded him in
favor of froe silver. The arguments of
the latter were completely annihilated,
and as the free silverites arose to in
timid ite Turner in his speech,he swept
them off their feet one by one and
sent them to their seats with the
house and galleries laughing at them.
Those who think that that he is in his
dotage should take warning lest they
fall under his massive strength.
