John Campbell, who was in- J
dieted for the killing of Ed. Braz
well, at Blythewood, on election
day, was acquitted. The testimony
showed that in the general
street fight which took place five
shots were fired, one by Camp
bell and four by Brazwell's father,
and failed to show which one had
really fired the deadly shot.
The case of Johnson Cameron,
indicted for the killing of H. A.
Stephonson on the day of the sec
ond primary, was marked continued
in the absence of several
material witnesses.
Judge Klugh overruled the attempt
on the part of the defend
ant's counsel to quash the jury,
which, it was claimed, had not
been legally dr^wn. The jury
list of four hundred names, which
would be needed during the year,
was placed in the box January 5,
accordiog to the law which provided
for this action on the part
of the jury commissioners. The
venire for this court was made
from this list. The plea of the
counsel was that this venire waR
not drawn as provided by the Act
passed at the last Legislature.
The ruling of Judge Klmrh was
that the list made up in January
would have to he exhausted before
the new law became effective.
The decision of the Supreme
Court in removing all railroad
suits for more than $2,000 to the
United States Court has had a
maiked effect in scaling down the
amount sued for, but not in de
creasing the number of cases. The
time of the court for the next two
or three days will be taken up
with claims against the Southern
Railway Company, which is the
only road operating in this coun
tyD.
A. Crawford, a shipper,
brings suit for lose of cattle in
transportation and loss of price
caused by an alleged delay.
J. McBryde Smith claims perunnal

'At first these were not of much
trouble, but lately he has suffered
a great deal, the physicians attributing
his sufferings to the effect
of the injury.
Another person has a suit for
the killing of his mules and the
mashing of his wagon by a train
at a railroad crossing. The negro
driver was also killed and his relatives

murder,there was a mistrial. Tom

several incendiary tires, has had
a hearing before a jury of his
countrymen, who found him guilty
with a recommendation to
mercy. He will, in a few days,

Nearly 2,000 men were engaged
in clearing the streets today, removing
debris and disposing of
bodies today. Twenty-five dead
bodies were recovered today and
35 yesterday. Gov. Sayers left
here this afternoon for Austin,
where he will consult with the
Attorney General for a fund with
which to operate the municipal
government from now until the
end of the fiscal year, February
28. About $100,060 will be re
quired. I

HAl) TO SHAVE HIM AGAIN.
4 Barber's Story of How he was
Called Upon to Share the Same
Dead Mail Twico.
The weather is always a
source of complaint. No matter
whether hot, cold, or neither,
diere is a class of people who
kvill grumble. Just at this season
of the year the hatters are
?njoying life. It is easy sailing
for them, for the straws have
been called in. As the styles
ill lmtu linvn fllfltirrorl fin* tl?ic
... ........ ^V.
fall everyone is almost compelled
to purchase a new hat.
Now with the barbers it is different.
With the advent of the
stove comes rheumatism and a
perceptible falling off in the
number ;>f shaves and haircuts.
"Hot weather," said a tonso
rial expert yesterday as he was
lathering the side of a bachelor's
face, "brings us a great deal of
business. There are few beards
in the summer ; the hair is kept
short and the head requires constant
shampooning. Another
thing about summer weather
that nobody notices except barbers
is that young men pay
more attention to the cut of
their hair than they do in (he
winter. This on account of the
love-making. I suppose. There
is no such thing as dishonesty
or short weight with us. When
a man wants his hair out it ha?
to be done and that is the end
to it. Sometimes we manage
to do a little shady work, sucli
as dyeing." And the man in
the chair laughed his moutk
full of soap suds, which caused
someone to remark that the
noxt thing ho would say would
lio slick.
The harbor continued to talk
"I was speaking of the cold
weather a few minutes ago and
said that it never brought u.?
my business. I remember out
time, though, that it was the
means of getting me an extra
ihave. I hate to shave dead
men, but that's a part of our
work and we get well paid for
t. A dead man never speaks,
io it makes no difference whether
we give him a clean face or
i cut. It was early in the night
when I was called out. The
man who was 'it' was a customer
of mine and I knew what
tind of a growth he had. At
the time of his death lie had an
til most clean face and my job
was easy. Now the cold weather
part of the story is that the
:>ody was kept for over four
:lays. A relative of the dead
rmm liftd to come, or something
[)f the sort. When everybody
had taken a look at the corpse
the lid to the coffin was . closed
and it was not taken ofF until
the relative arrived, which was
the night of the fourth day. All
rtf the near and dear ones of the
rleceased were about the coffin
when the lid was taken ofF. II
the dead man had spoken they
could not have been any mors
surprised, for there was a heavy
heard on his face. That wa?
one tiipe I had to suffer. T wa!
