From Thur U»j’» Kvksish Herald.
Messrs, Ben T. Jones and J. T. Mo
oting, two well-known young men of
this oity*, had n dtflleulty at about half-
past 9 o’clock this morning that was n
very lively little affair, both gentle
men receiving injuries requiring the
attention of n surgeon.
Jones was knocked on tile head witli
a heavy stick, a shovel handle, while
McCliing rieelved two shots from
Jones’s pistol—one taking effect, in the
right shoulder, and the other passing
through the left arm, fracturing the
bone about midway between the hand
and elbow.
TllK'OAUHK OF THK DIFFICULTY.
’J’lie difficulty, which occurred ill J.
0, Cnssidy’s store on Broad street,
grew out of some remarks which Mc-
Clmig had made about Junes in con
nection with the beef cattle business—
McClung being a butcher nod Jones a
denier in beef cattle. Jones was in
formed Him McClung had made some
remarks about IlljRrt which reflected
upon ills elmrnoter, nod called on >Jc-
fllinig about It yesterday afternoon.
McClung denied having inCde the re
marks as alleged, but admitted having
repentcd^somethlflg on the same sub
ject that bad been told him by Mr. C
M. Sliftckelford. Jones went to Shack
elford,.and tills morning Mr. .Shackel
ford Went with him to face MnClung
as to what Imd been said. Shackel
ford repeated what he had said and nil
that' In 1 lnul said about seeing Jones
driving cattle to town, and McClung
admitted that it was substantially ns
stated.
Tins was entirely satisfactory to
Jmie£\So far as Shackelford was con
cerned, but he charged McClung wjth
having tuld it differently and In a way
to make it appear that lie (Jones) had
been driving cattle that did not be
long to him.
McClung was silting ill Cnssidy’s
etoro playing a game of draughts with
one of the clerks When Jones aild
Shackelford entered, and after Shack
elford laid dime his talking and Jones
and McClung commenced their dispu
tation, both men got hot and in less
tinie'tlian it takes to tell it they war
making for oncli other.
Tint n'diiT,
was a lively one from the start, but
McClung seemed to have the advan
tage. fie had a big stick, a shovel
handle, and with tills lie dealt Jones
one blow after another. Finally Jones
drew his pistol 11111I fired two shots in
rapid succession. McClung retreated
through the bnck door, and when tiie
dust of the scrimmage and smoke of
battle had cleared if was found that
Jones’s scalp had a gaping wound
about two inches long, while there
were severnl good sized bumps on bis
head and arms made by MyCluug’s
stick. McClung ’ fnred even worse,
both of Jone’s shots having taken ef.
feet. One bail entered the top of the
right shoulder, passing out about four
inches below where it entered,
through the back part of the arm. The
other ball passed through the left arm,
ranging upward, and fracturing one
of the bones about midway between
the wriBt and elbow.
Mr. Jones went to Dr, W. A,
Strother for repairs, and Mr. McClung
to Dr. W. L. Davis. Both men were
badly hurt, and each had a narrow
escape from permanent or fatal in
jury.
A Frolic f.r Next Il>ck-Lnwll Pivrlf at
VeWIU.
Here’s a frolic on hand, such a frolic
as the young people especially enjoy
and the older ones love to attend and
most heartily approve. A long ride
into the country, a lawn party with
refreshments and an entertainment,
and then a pleasant ride back through
the cool night air. Is not that a most
pleasant prospect?
This is it: The goad people qf De-
Witt have for k long time been de-
sirious of building an Episcopal
church in their little city, and have
already collected quite a sum of money
with that object in view.
On Thursday night of next week, at
the residence of Mr. G. M. Bacon, of
DeWitt, a lawn party will be given for
the benefit of the new church fund.
All Albany people are cordially in
vited to’attend, the Episcopalians es
pecially so.
Admission 25 cents and the ' little
performance that has been Arranged
will begin promptly at 7 o’clock.
Light refreshments will be served.
The Bacon* of DeWitt, who are the
prime merers in this affair, have en
tertained the young people of ^Albany
in a right royal manner again and
'.The building of an Episcopal
church at that plaoe Is a project that
la deab to tlieir hearts and it will but
please Albany people to show thalr ap
preciation'by liberally patronizing the
enfetatypfnt to be given.
It will be an easy matter to get
it in the drag, and . to
smaller loads, will
a delightful little
as well as a most
which we are asked
money.
Bill Hilsman is either stek or some
thing has gone wrong with him when

Here is one that he guWbe Uwuld

“As I was coming down early this

“Yon know where the alley orosses

“Yes"—
“Well, there at that little old stable
two darkles had a little gray Texas
pony hitched to 11 phaeton, and were
trying to get. him off. The pony was
sulking, and Just wouldn’t go. He’d
sprend his legs mid brace himself back
when the darkies would push the ve
hicle on him and urge him forward.
Finally one of them got on the pony’s
hack and Jogged and kicked him In the
sides. He’d kick nml buck, but not n
slop forward would he go. I watched
them for some time, expecting to see
some fun, lint llnnlly got tired of it

“Well, old Snip was about three

Special CorrcsiMimlonccof the Hkiiai.ii.
Camp Youthen, May 24,1892.
,-VVell, tiie boys are at last comforta
bly fixed in camp, though not until
tills morning were things arranged so
ns to be even passably pleasant.
The renders of the Hsrald will re
member that the Guards expected to
arrive in Griffin at 4:80 o’olockln the
afternoon, but it was nearly dark be
fore the tents were readied and bag
gage gotten up from the depot, and it
was a pretty linrd matter to got com
fortable beds ready for a night’s rest.
And about 12 or 1 o’clock this morn
ing, many of the boys awoke to find
themselves shivering with biting cold,
which crept in through tiie small
qunntlty of cover with which most of
them wore supplied. Walls like “I’m
cold I” “It’s freezing!" “I want some
more covert” rose upon the midnight
air. This morning trips arc being
made to Griffin for the purpose of se
curing quilts and blankets, nnd to
night there will be little dnnger of
anyone sleeping cold. The shower
baths and swimming pool are going
begging.
At tills hour, 7:80, the boys are all
industriously engaged In cleaning up'
our street.
.Toe Gilbert is bossing the work.
Will Shackelford, Sid Vason and
Bruns are industriously rnking up
piles of leaves, nnd Jim Grantham nnd
Sain Tift, in compnny with iinif n
dozen-others, are piillinghrooms after
fliein, Wallace BacoT) has a sore hand,
nnd is consequently privileged to stnnd
by nnd look on.
Sergeant Steve Prioe iB universally
missed, but Ed. Sterile ably looks after
tin* duties of quartermaster.
This morning after reveille, Lieut,
Tift, took the Guards out 011 the drill
ground and put them through some
maneuvers in the manual nnd fluid
movements, and if the girls nml Indies
at home could have heard the ninny
compliments of dozens of officers who
witnessed the drill, they would have
bepn prouder than ever of thfdr sweet
hearts and husbands “off in tiie army.”
Indeed, their work was beautiful, and
the company has yet to make its. ap
pearance that will put upa better drill
than the Guardp can.
Governor Northern will be here to-
day with Ills'sXilff. Ilia Excellency
will luspeot the troops,-and formally
nccept the camp, after'which the Com
panies in’camp will go ont bn full
dreas parade.
Capt. Wooten turned loose the com
pany last night, and alh of them but a
few went into Griffin.
Tiie Valdosta Vldettcs are on one
side of the Guards, the Quitman Greys
on the other. )
At 10 o’clock to-ddy, guard mount
will come off.’ Joe Gilbert And Ike
Weiss are (he first viotims, and for the
rest of the day will take regular turns
at walking the picket lines.
Of course all the boys are keeping
straight. Nothing stronger than
ever passes their lips.
Griffin la decked out in red, white
and blue In honorof the visiting mili
tary, and seems determined to make
their stay In camp pleasant. The way
they have fixed up the damp is very
pretty and convenient, though the
drill ground is not as good as the one
at Chicamaaga.
But this Is enough for one time. At
the next writing will have more news
about how the boys are getting along.
