JM Daniel* HIU Tom "Shorty" on tho
Hrad With » Bock and Badly Disables
[IIm -1‘urcly a Cue of Self Denfense on
Daniel'* Pact
Yesterday afternoon about 330 o’clock
,e Daniel* and Tom “Shorty,” two ne-
jrr.ies, engaged in a difficulty, which ro-
aulted rather aerloualy for the latter.
It seems that Daniels was walking
down Cotton avenue when “Shorty” fol
lowed him with an open knife, threaten
ing to kill him, at the same time inter
larding his discourse with a flow of pro
fanity.
Daniels, seeing that “Shorty" was
under the Influence ot liquor, endcav.
ored to ovade any difficulty, but was fol
lowed with a continuation of the abuse
aDd threats Seeing that something de
risive would have to be done, he picked
up a broom a stand In front of one of the
stores and bit “Shorty’* once or twice
with it in effort to keep him off.
Gut even this had no effect upon him,
and he still evincod a determination to
make mincemeat of Daniels.
Daniels, recognizing the fact that his
person was fn danger, stooped to the
pavement and picking up a rock weigh
ing about two pounds and throwing it
at "Shorty” from a distance of about fif
teen feet, hit him squarely upon the
right side of the forehead. This proved
an effectual ending to tbe difficulty, as
“Shorty” dropped like a log, and lay to
all appearances dead.
The stricken man richly deserved bis
punishment, as every bystander can tes
tify. He had been repeatedly warned
ky Daniels to desist from Ills persecu
tion, and in the face of these reiterated
warnings continued to threaten the life
of the other, at the same time holding
in his hand an open knife.
It is to be hoped that Daniels will be
allowed to go free, as his action was one
of pure self-defense.

Avenue Theatre.
Tiie Richards & Pringle's Georgia
Minstrels, composed entirely of colored
performers, opened a week’s engagement
last night at the Avenue theatre. Before
tiie performance opened every seat in
the house was taken, and admission to
the balcony had to be denied to a great
many for want of standing room.
Tiie large audience received with much
laughter the fun making of tho min
strels. The performance was funny
and clean, tho music, both vocal and in
strumental, being equal to that of tbo
majority of minstrel companies.
The usual first part was admirably ar
ranged, and every number on the pro
gramme waa honored with a recall.
Hilly Kersands, as usual carried off the
honors ol the ovening, and while he
was on tho stago kept the audience in
roars of laughter. Tom Brown gave a
good imitation of a Chinaman, Irishman
and a Hebrew, proving himself to be a
drawing card
Tho black Patti, “Gauze,” has a fair
voice and very taking wardrobe. Ills
impersonation of a female is as near per
fect as could be wished.
The minstrels will, no doubt, as in
past years, do a largo business —New

Fin* Fish.
Capt. E. Taylor yesterday brought to
the city two fine specimens of German
carp which ha caught in Klncbafoonco
creek, just below Smithvllle. He pre
sented the fish to Messrs. A. J. Buchan
an and A. C. Bell, and they (the fish, not
tho gentlemen,) weighed respectively 8
and 0 pounds.
Several years ago ■ Capt. Taylor'B
father-in-law stocked a pond with carp,
and after having bred the fish to a state
of perfection tho dam broke and they all
escaped into the creek. Tho two that
Capt, Taylor captured are evidently a
part of the lot which were originally
raised in tbe pond.
Several have been caught from Kinch-
afoonee weighing upwards of 20 pounds.

TERRIBLE fatality.
•Indc* Batts KIU*d by a Fall From Bis
Bona.
Judge Walker Batts of SmithviUe was
killed Wednesday morning at bis borne
a few miles from Smithvllle by a fall
from a horse which he was riding.
It seems that Judge Batts went on
business to town early Wednesday morn
ing, Intending to go from there into the
country on business. His route led him
by his own door, and just before reach-
log home hit horse became frightened
and threw him. He did not seem to be
seriously Injured,and after being thrown,
arose and walked home. His wife,
knowing that he was to pass the house
on bis way Into the country, was not
alarmed when ho came in, and even
when be told her that he bad sustained
a fall from his horse, was not seriously
uneasy.
After washing from bis face the dirt
with which It was covered from the fail,
the judge told hia little children to hur
ry off to sohool, that he was not hurt;
but one hour afterwards he was dead
He sustained from the shock severe
internal injuries which his system was
not able to withstand, and shortly tbero
after bad ceased to breathe.
In Judge Batts’ death tbe community
In which be lived sustains an almost Ir
reparable loss, as he was a man beloved
by all and an upright and public-spirited
citizen.
Now Is tho season to plant your
onions. Call at Dr. Eldridge's and buy

Balm for severe and painful barns with
better effect than anything else I have

and cures without leaving a scar." Pain
Balm is one of the moet useful medicines
that any family can be provided with,
especially tor rheumatism, lame back,
sprains, bruises, to6th-ache, earache
and like ailments. One application will
relieve tbe pain, and a fair trial Insure a
cure. 60 cent bottles for sale by W. C.

We want every mother to know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom ia hoarseness; then the
child appears to have taken cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness from tbe start, After that a pecu
liar rough cough is developed, which is
followed by the croup. The time to act
Is when tho child first becomes hoarse; a
few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy will prevent the attack. Even after
a rough cough has appeared, the disease
maybe prevented by using this remedy
as directed. For sale by W. C. Russell.

was crippled In my foot anI arms so
that I eould not walk without crutches,
nor eat without having a servant to feed
me. I tried physicians everywhere, bat
to no purpose, and finally went to New
York, where my doctors, at one time,
decided to amputate my arm, but found
that coarse impracticable on account of
a wound I bad received during the war.
I returned to Savannah a complete
