The damage was very .slight and will possibly not exceed :$5. '4 The fire department was prompt ly on the scene and prevented what 'at one time was feared to be a serious Mr. Ii. F.

From the information at. hnnrl if seems that Mr. Shade Wooten some time ago nailed up some plank to keep the public out of a back lot. This morning Mr. Bill Harper, who runs a livery stable in La Grange, had occasion to use the back lot and he knocked off the plank. This caused a renewal of the bad feeling which had existed for some time be tween the Wootens and Harpers on account of the fact that Mr. Harper had some mouths ago very seriously cut Mr. Simeon Wooten, a close rela tive of the family. RAmufL' . f . . . T i . " .vo tin uuuisaui nature: were made on both sides about the j fence question which reached the I ears of both parties. Finally Mr. !

Just rfwl- 1 j 1 iwwiv ijiate wnen me two men met face to face no one seems to know, but it is said that Richard Wooten knocked Harper down, who arose with his knife in his ha d. Wooten pulled out his pistol and be gan firing. A friend standing by caught hold of Wooteu's armand the bullets went wide of their mark. Harper ran down the street and into i baioon. j ust as he entered a ball from the pistol stuck in the door facing. Five or six shots were fired and one ball struck a negro drayman named Wrieht Jovner. The Kc'ii struck him in the thick part of the thigh and will probably do no other damage tnan inflict a painful flesh wound. Several people were on the street at the time and it is consid ered very fortunate that no one else got shot. The affair has caused quite a stir in the usually quiet town of La Grange. People who are well acquainted with both parties are very much aiio.ui iiisAi me uniorrunate occur rence is not over. The sudden re newal of hostilities in such a forceful manner may result in more serious consequences.

In a short while, how ever,' a crowd got together and began a search for the burglars, but it was too late,as they had made good their escape and left no trace of their de parture that could be seen at night. Early next morning it was found that three buggies had left the town at night. When the hired man went out to feed the horse of Dr. Mark Hodges he found that both the horse and buggy wt re gone. Dr. Hodges came to this city next morning on the 11 o'clock train and found that his horse and buggy had been left tied to a tree beside the road about one mile from this city. The horse showed signs of having been driven very hard and may be seri ously injured. The doctor said that the tracks of three buggies were seen next morn ing in EaOrange. and that mules were hitched to two of the buggies. It is supposed that the two mules ana Duggies were stolen irom some one in the country who has not been heard from. This supposition is con firmed by the fact that only two strange looking men got off the night train in LaGrange that night. They hung around the depot for some time and finally walked off down the rail road. Two strangers walked into a sa loon in this city about 5 o'clock that morning and called for something to drink and something to eat. When told that they could perhaps get some thing to eat at a negro restaurant across the street, which was the only place open at that time, they replied that they did not patronize such places, as they had plenty of money to pay for what they wanted at first class places. The bank which they robbed be longed to Rouse Bros., who carried a burglar policy of $5,000 which will cover their losses. The justices rendering the major ity opinion were Chief Justice Ful ler and Associate Justices McKenna, White, Holmes and Peckham. The dissenting opinions were from Jus tices Harlan, Brewer and Brown. A GREAT RELIGIOUS E.NTNG. AWAK Topsail, N. C, April 28. Dear Argus: Rev. S. H.
