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.

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.

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.
