The driver of Mr. R. J. Holmes, dairy wagon and Mr. i icero Chuun, with -wife and children, came up to the bridge from the oppoMte direc tion and it seems from the evidence gotten in the casje. that Mr. Cicero hunn entered the, bridge first, got his whole buggy'sdisianee on, and hollowed for the approaching party to await until he could gel over. The dairy wagon driver drove on thinking he had the right of way and just in the middle of the bridge the two collide J. feeveraL were thrown from the wagon or buggy of Mr. .Chuun and one, of his I children pitched over the railing into that portion of the bridge -set apart for pedestrians Had' the chyd gone the 01 her way death 11 1 -.11 would have Deen the mevitaoie reJ suit. J . Mr. Chunn 'insiituied nuii gaint the dairyman and tht hearing was before Capt. J no. it msiy. There was evidently some degree of stuo- t born ness on the part of both par- lies but the blame seemed to be more directly due .o the dairyman; he was fined 5.00 for. the transac tion. Mayor Linn appeared for the dairyman, and Mr, A. II. Price for Mr. Chunp. Both panics are to be congratulated upon th- fact that death of some degree was not the outcome of so grave a catastrophe. THE GUINEA CASE. - . r THE CASE DISMISSED BY"' ESQUIRE RAMSEY -WHAT IT 60ST. . '. Some piecious good cash was wahted en a 15 cent guinea jester div. : As noted in yesterday's World Mr. J. N. Fraley brought suit in the magistrate's court against T. R Pinkston for killing a guinea. There was no positive evidence against Mr. Pinkston. The most that any witness could could swear was that the stone with which the guinea was killed was found lying in- such a position v aw to indicate that it had come f"from the direc tion in which Mr. Pinkston had driven. ' There were passes and counter pases and ' at times matters were quite acrimonious. Esquire Ramsay finally dis missed the eaie, the costs to both parties concerned aggregating nearly $30. And all over a 15 cent guinea. Nt J Rowan mv. j . itowan Davis requests us to state that the J. R, Davis who was before Mayor Linn for an affray as not him. The Davis who en gaged in the affray was a country man. Lyon Dead C. D. Lyon, who fell down the steps of the Cooper Honse at Statesville, died jyesterdav mrning from his injuries.
