realizes it. If called upon, how¬
ever, to furnish Hie si;.to militia
for the service of th » nation in

has made up his mind to share the

Should the governor carry out
his intention in this matter, as
seems practically certain in case

president of the senate, nil! be

Capt. Oscar Brown, acting adju¬

Ballard Howard owns dOt) acres
ot timber land. George Baker
owns a similar tract adjoining.
Three weeks ago Baker ..out 800
logs. Howard claimed that he
crossed the. boundary and cut
them on his land. This charge
caused a fight, in which Alex lhi
k o', aeon of Georgs Baker, was
killed. The Baker family swore
to exterminate the Howard family.
Officers of the law were given to
understand by both sides that they
would brook no interference. As
one of tho belligerents expressed
it: “You just leave us alone; we
want to fight it out among our¬
selves.”
Lnst Monday Ballard Howard
and throe sons, who had been to
Manchester tc procure arms and
ammunition, were waylaid live
miles from town by old Baker and
three of his sons. Ballard How¬
ard was shot, through the shoulder.
Jim Howard, hiB *om and Joe An¬
derson, a hirkMl-man, weru killed by
ihe first volley from tho Bakers.
When the Bakers came out of
the hushes to complete their work,
they were fired on by the two un¬
injured Howards, and Joe and
•James Baker were killed. Old
man Baker retreated and escaped.
Last Wednesday morning George
Baker, while ridingaloiig tlie road,
was met by Jim Howard. Both
commencedd shooting. Baker was
killed. Howard was unhurt.
Knowing that some of fife Bakers
would come to hunt for the old
man. 'Howard got three other men
and went back to where lav the
body of Baker. Concealing theni
-eives they awaited they ouoniy.
In an hour a party of five Bakers
arrived. Waiting until they had
dismounted, the concealed parlv
fired, killing two and wounding
another. The remaining two of
the Baker faction mounted the r
horses and escaped.
The Howards, after surveying
their work and thinking the
wounded man dead, departed. The
two bodies remained in the road
ail day. For fear of an ambush,
their friends did not remove them
until night.
Last Thursday night John How¬

train No. 8, leaving Atlanta at 0

at Cement, two miles north of
Kingston, last night, derailing elev¬
en loaded cars amj the engine.
Tho train was in charge of Con¬
ductor Ilildorbrand and Engineer
Tube Johnson. The trainmen ull
escaped with slight bruises. A n“
gro tramp was pinned under tho
wreck, the ears 1 piled above him.
He called for help, and was res¬
cued, but will probably die. His
head is cut badly, leg broken in
several places and is injured inter¬
nally.
Two wrecking crews are at work
and the track will be cleared in a
few hours. Tlie morning Nashville
trains, were run via Kingston,

Dalton. A broken rail caused the
wreck.
