The Batesville Guard is putting

in a new double deck perfecting

The Sharp County Record seems
to t>c displeased with the way The
Journal speaks its mind, and says
‘•The Journal will get its bumps
some day.” Not being up on the
latest slang, we hardly know what
this means, and don't know
which to do ; feel complimented
or “cuss him back,”
The record of the industrial
progress of the south grows larg
er and more satisfying every week.
Now mills, foundries, factories
and crafts are being built and
operated—and yet all men say
we are but in the infancy of out
growth in these matters. The in
dustrial south will soon become a
forceful factor in the national
lie Id of production and competi
tion and in that day her influence
upon national policies will be even
as in the days of old, when her |
statesmen were leaders and her j
verdicts were irresistible.

Sensational Shooting at Batesville
liatesville, Sept. 3d. — A very
sensational and probably fatal
shooting occurred at the court
house in this city this morning at
10 o'clock. W. J. Ward, deputy
circuit clerk, was seriously, if not
fatally, wounded by Dr. J. P.
Dorr, a prominent physician of
Dota. Five shots were tired,
three of which were effective, two
being Lilly flesh wounds, but the
third entering in the back near
the kidneys i> very serious and
may prove fatal.
Both are men of considerable
prominence and the shooting has
caused considerable excitement.
i ne cause is not uenuitely i
known yet, but it is sai<i that Dorr
was insanely jealous of Ward, who
had worked for him lor several
years in the capacity of salesman
in a store which he owns and runs
at Dota. It is said he believed
W ard had alienated his wife's af
fection. llis wife, though, 1 as
been dead for several months.
After his arrest Dorr was being
guarded in the sheiiff’s officeand,
catching or drawing the attention
of the guard to something else,
he secured a loaded pistol which
belonged to the sheriff, lying in a
drawer of the desk, and might
have done more shooting, hut tlie
sheriff happened in at an oppor
tune moment and took it from
him.
l)r. Dorr refuses to give out
ary statement. Mr. Ward says
it was unexpected to him, and he
thought the doctor was a friend
to him.
Sheriff Hinkle kept Dr. Dorr
in the county vault for half an
hour, as the excitement ran high.

what a young woman paid for
twelve pounds of flesh.
She was thin and weak and
paid one dollar for a bottle of!
Scott’s Emulsion, and by tak
