Iteed has quit. He says he is defeated in the race for the Demo- cratic nomination for governor and he has no desire to prolong an un- protitable contest In announcing his formal with- drawal, he gives out the following card: “It is now manifest that Iam de feated. Under the circumstances, to prolong the contest would be with- out substantial results, I shall not, therefore, submit my name in any more counties, “T sincerely thank my friends for their earnest support, and at the same time fully releage them from all obligations to myself, either express- ed or implied. It is needless to add that, asin the past, I shall loyally support the nominees of the Demo- cratic convention.” Clergymen in a Fight. Texarkana, Ark., May 14 —A sen- sational shooting affray took. place on the eastbound Texas & Pacific train coming into this place to-day between the Rev. J. B. Cranfill and the Rev. S. L. Hayden. The Rev. Mr. Cranfill fired two shots from a magazine pistol at the Rev. Mr. Hay- den, while the latter was struggling for possession of the weapon. Neither shot took effect. The encounter occurred in the lava- tory of the sleeper on which both men were riding on the way to the Southern Baptist convention at Nashville, The Rev. Mr. Cranfill was arrested on his arrival here and ar-| raigned before Justice Henry on a, charze of assault to murder. He waived the examination and was} released on $10,000 bond. Cranfill} left for Nashville this afternoon and Faydon will resume his journey to- night Th ereonnter, it is alleged, grew out of past differences, logal and per- } sonal, between the principals. Fay-| den was accompanied by his wife and | daughter and Cranfill by a party of friends. Letter to W. W. Ross, | theater to-night. Butler, Mo. Dear Sir: Your business is, whena house burns down, to give the owner some mouey to build a new one. It isa good business. Queer that the world got on so long without it. We paint th: one that burnt down and the new one too. What is bet- ter, we paint the houses that don’t|’ burn down. You insure the house that burn; we insure the houses that don’s. You have the ashes and smoke; all the houses are ours. We paint lead-and-zinc; Devoe. We sell the paint to painters; we don’t paint. Lead-and-oll is the old fashion paint. Devoe is zine ground in with lead and linseed oil; the best paint in the world; and the cheapest, because it takes fewer gallons than mixed paints and it wears twice as long as lead-and-oil. Nobody wants poor paint; there's lots of it, though, in the world. A.M. Griffin, Plainfield, N. J. writes: always used 15 gallons of mixed F. W. Devor & Co., New York and Chicago.

Leavenworth, Kans., May 10.— George Kell, a farmer living near Ackerland, fifteen miles west of here, brought the skin of a large South American jaguar, which he killed at his home, to the city to-day. This is the wild animal which killed a num- ber of dogs and created excitement in the west part of the city two weeks azo. Two hunts were organized to kill the animal witheut success, and nothing had been heard from it for some time. Last night Mr. Bell heard a com- motion among his chickens and pigs, and taking his rifle along visited the stable. Fle noticed a large animal and killed it on the first shot. Its hide was full of holes, showing that it had been wounded repeatedly by the hunters who were chasing it. The jaguar was seven feet long. It is supposed that ft escaped from some traveling show.
