I was a fleet runner and made better time on that race than ever before, About i00 yards from our breastworks I felt a ball strike my leg near my boot top, and in less time than I can tell it I could hear the blood ‘goosh goosh’ in my bootleg, yet I never slackened my pace, although I went witha limp. I tumbled over the breastworks and lay gasping for breath. One of the boys said: ‘Al; what's the matter? I replied that a bullet had struck me in the leg, and that I was bleeding to death. “Two of my comrades came up and began searching for the wound. The boot was drawn carefully from my foot, when out fella minie ball. It had passed through the leather but had not even broken the skin. A Heg when the skin was not broken. bereua cles | —---— \J.

Heard, Tarsney and others. His taik seemed to please Missouri aud Mr. Mahaney watched curiously to see the returus come in. Of course, he himself was put under the snow, as might have been expected, but from Missouri came reports of increased democratic majorities, and the worst of it was the heaviest gaius were in the districts Mahaney had talked the hardest. After figuring up tbe results Mr. Mahany announced thut if he had had time to talk all over! the country there wouldn't haye been a republican congressman left. Then he sailed away to mourn un- til Mr. Cleveland names his succes congrees A New Way tor Missouri.

Knoxyille, Tenn., Feb. 9.—Two factions in Green county, Tennessee and Madison county, North Caro- lina, led by Ed Johnson and a noto- ‘rious mountaineer, Jim Colv,respect- ‘ively, have for months been fighting each other through the courts about farming lands. Yesterday Cole and Tom Hixon visited the Johnson house claiming to have a warrant for Mis. Johnson's arrest. She called to he: husband to come to her assist- ance. His feet were frozen, but he managed to crawl out and open fire on Hixon and Cole. They returned the compliment and Johnson was killed. | Mrs. Johnson ran iuto the house and returned with a shot gun, the contents of which she emptied into Hixon’s breast killing him in- stautly. She was about to open fire on Cole but he got ahead of her and with a load of buckshot at close range fired, almost cutting her head off. She fell lifeless across the body of her husband. The Johnsons have six grown children who say they will avenge the killing of their parents. Cole has not been captured. Has Doubtless Accepted. Chicago, IL, Feb. 9.—There is jevery reason to believe that Judge Gresham has accepted the portfolio of state from Mr. Clevelaud, though he refuses to either deny of confirm the report. It will be readily under- stood, of course, that he could not talk on the subject until Mr. Cleve- land had announced his intentions, but his silence is considered as equivalent to acknowledgment that he has accepted a cabiuet position. Judge Gresham was interviewed to- jday, but he positively declined to talk politics or discuss the state- ment that he had been offered a cab- inet position. Information reliably secured by your correspondent, however, says that Judge Gresham has accepted the position and will be the next secretary of state. Murdered to Prevent fis Marriage.

He fled. and is believed to be in hiding in the woods. Reports submitted at the annual meeting of the Ilinois Steel company showed that the corporation had cleared over $6117,000, in the past year.
