From Constitution. •‘Will I die, doetorl” asked Joseph¬ ine Hamilton anxiously ;pf Dr. Dan Howel j>*sterdMy afternoon, as he was stooping over*the woman’s side, trying to stop ihe flow of blood. “I hope not,” was the doctors re¬ sponse, as he took from his pocket case an instrument used in taking up a severed artery. The womau was bleeding copiously from au ugly wound located near the left shoulder. She was lying on a bed Miura ed with bio >u, and the pliysiciafl practiced eye told him that she Would noon Bleed to death unless the ends of the artery could be closed. Already she was growing weak and no time was to be lost. The wound was loug and deep. It had been made with a sharp instrument Rad was indicted duang^ a . tight, i» which the ^tvomaii was engaged \vit.i liattic Walker. Josephine Hamilton is a colored woman; about niucteeu vrs. of age. For some time past she ha 8 beeu working for a pnvaae family on Ivy street near its junction with Peach¬ tree. ilattie Ifaiker is also crloieu— •She too has been WOKING FOR A FAMILY. whose residence is near the family for wiiuin Josephine Hamilton was working, Tne two wouuu have known each otli cr tor years, but wit urn Ihe past few mouths a bad leering has existed be iweeu them, The prime cause of the enmity is not kuoww, as each woman when questioned^ presents a story en¬ tirely unlike the story given by the other. It seems, however that Jose¬ phine Hamilton. HAS BEEN TALKING to irorne of Hattie Waiker a irienus and that iu these conversations ahe has u*.t urea the moat complimentary language tonceining the woman who came so koai* kiiliug hfr.

Their qucrrel, unlike nuvt ne*, gro quarrels, was conducted for some time quite a subdued tone and eonse-, quensly attracted no attention. ** hen j the quarrel was about over the two wd men having speut their fury in talk; Hattie Walker’s husband entered the yard. The sight of her husband seems to have aroused the woman fully, and with single bound SIIE CLEARED THE SPACE intervening betweeu her and her ene¬ my. The other woman, however was ready for the onslaught, and gave her assa ilant a warn* reception. A fight, interesting and determined ensnod. It had been in progress but a short while when //attie; ^Walker stepped back from her foo and thrusting her hand in her bosom drew forth a long bright blade This she raised aloft mid ex claimed: “Now die and let mo have what is my own.” ,?s the words fell from the woman’s lips, the knife came down like a flash and entered JOSEPH IN J£ HAMILTON’S L**T DER. 4 and severed the arteiy. The wou/d be assaein raised the knife to strike aga n, but just at that instant her husband, who had been * silent and spell-bound witness to the entire tight, sprang forward, and, grabbing his wife’ hand, wrenched the knife from her grasp before she could deal the second blow As tne knife camo from the wound the biOod spurted out fully a toot. The aight ot the b/ood scared the wounded woman terribly. She su*Ji to the ground and moaned. “She has killed ui»t! She has ki led me! Go for a doctor.” THE DOCTOR feENT FOR. The latter end of the difficulty was aoeom; % ned by n »se enough ta attra*?t some parties. A messenger Was hur ndly sent for a physician, and the «vi> man who had done the cutting was de tained by those present until an officer could be secured. Mounted ; Officer Green responded to the call, and in a short time i/attie Walker was behind the bars, charged with assault with in tent to umrder.
