Cope, October 3?Special: A few nights ago at a negro frolic, one John Summers became insulted at Ramsey James calling him a fool; so he stepped out and got a single barreled gun he had carried with him, and returned. It seems that Jamts thought he was only bluffing, and after a few words James turned to walk away, when Summers fired, the whole load entering just about the hip joint and ranging downward. Drs. Brabham and Cleckley were called to the wounded man, while Summers proceeded to return home. He was arrested the next day by Magistrate D. W. Bonnett, and taken to jail, where he now remains await ing the outcome of James' wound. Summers worked for Mr. J. C. Hay den and James for Mr. S. B. Cope, so both of these genetlme:a are one cotton picker short. School opened here on yesterday with Miss Annie Wright as head teacher, and the boys and girls will soon be hard at work with their books. The assistant teacher, whom the board had elected, accepted a pos ition elsewhere, and did not notify the board in time for them to get another for the opening, but they have succeded in procuring Mias Wright's sister, and she is expeced here today. One of the heaviest rains of the year fell here Sunday from 11 a. m. to 1 p. m., and yesterday was much cooler. Today is still more pleasant, and the extreme hot spell of the last ten days is a thing of the past. The cotton fields are still white, and as labor is somewhat scarce, and all of the cotton is open at one time it looks as if there is not much doing, but a close observer will soon see there is none left where the pickers are going over now.
