Mon day morning the negro again at tacked the white man in the bam, using the black-jack weajsin, wnen the joung man user; nis gun, tiring three or four halls into the negro's Ixsly, killing him instantly. Stains is said to be a quite eaeeable joung man, aloiit IS yeais old, a native of ('ramie Full and comes from a good family, while the negro is regarded as a desperate character and has an unsavory reputation in his for mer home in Kentucky, where he has h-en involved in a num ber vf duficulties. Stums made no effort to get away but remained on the ground until the Sheriff came and took hi. i in charge. The negro's IkhIv was brought to F.ikin Monday night and em balmed by I'ndertaker, P. C. Keith, and shipped (o Newport. Tcnn., for burial. Stains will have a preliminary trial next Tuesday. There were no actual eye witnesses to the killing but a number of w orkmen w eTc near by and from rejwts received from different ones on the place it was a clear case of self de fense on tho part of young Stains, and we haven't a doubt but that it w ill be so considered by a Jury when all the facts in tho case have been presented to them. lc A VVOKU LA I'll I.
