Sev eral negroes who were with Mitchell at the time of the shooting, one of them his brother-in-law, have been arrested, but will tell nothing that might lead to the capture of Mitchell.

Saturday morning Mr. Joyner had some words with Mitchell’s father-in- law, and gave the negro a thrashing.

Warren Nuq- nally got in the buggy with him to ride a short distan j up the stre.t. In front of the residence of W. C‘. Williams the rig was halted oy Mitchell, who iked Mr. Joyner for a settlement of the amount du<? him. Several other negroes were with Mitchell, but none of them had any thing to say. When the negro approached th? buggy Mr. Nunnally got out, leaving Mr. Joyner’s revolver lying in an ex posed position on the seat. Mitchell saw the gun and Je Ded forward.

Mitchell fired as Mr. Joyner lunged forward to grab his hand, an'' rh-* bullet penetrated the foreman’s side. The negro started to run and Mr. Nunnally tried to grab him, but miss ed, and Mitchell escaped. Frightened by the sound of th shot, the horse started to run. with Mr. Joyner hanging over the side of ffie buggy. He fell out after the horse had run about 100 yards. Mr. Nunnally and others attracted by the shooting picked Mr. Joyner up and carried him to u drug store. He lived several hours and was con scious to the end.

Y. Stevens and I. S. Ford. The house was badly damaged. The burglar who was in reality, perhaps, the means of saving tne lives of the three men, fled after Mr. Prater fired three shots at him. The Intruder was extremely awkward, and. while slipping through the hall way of the Prater home, stumbled and fell. The noise of the fall awoke one of the women members of the family, and securing a pl?*tol she rap across the hallway and gave the weapon to Mr. Prater.

Backed by such quantities of quality furniture we are justified in calling it the classic furniture event of the year. But these are only 1 he broad and true generalities.
