Lincoln County Man Describes The Murder as he Saw it. Several Lincoln county men who were in Richmond, .Monday, which wtid court day there, saw the killing. For u while the reort was current here tlint the man killed wiib former Senator George Furris, of Lancas ter, who is now special messenger for Governor MeCreury at Frank fort. Hut this report wus soon found to be untrue. Wm. Mnupin, of the Dripping Springs section, and who bay, he is n second cousin of the man who lid the killing, returned to Stanford from Richmond on the 2:40 tram, nnil gave u full description of the unfortunate affair, of which ho was an v witness. He said that he did not personally know Hrack Mnu jin, but knew him to be his cousin. He described tho t rowdy to a croup of intcre.Ucd listeners when he cot oft the train here. Mr. Maupin said: ,. 'I was Rtar.d:r.s r.csr the livery stable ju-,1 this side of the court liou-e, when 1 heard Hrack Maupm. who wns standing near inc. iov 'There he goes now. 1 guess this is about as nod n chance as I will have to net l'im. With this re mark, he ran his hand into his tup IHicket and pulled out a pistol, first lircukinir it to if it wns loaded. lie walked "l behind the man who. 1 wns afterward told, was named Fnrn-, and jerked him around. Far ris threw up his hands mil exclaim ed: "'For God's sake don't kill me Hrack ' 'However, Hraek's only reply was to pull the trigger and shoot Far ris once m the chest. Farris then started t.i run, and Hrack fired jigmii four times nt his back. Far ris fell to the pavement, and Maupin then went up to bun. and looked at him and Miid 'I may not have fin ished vou. so I'll just make sure of it,' and with that he j-rU.l ' knifo out of bis pocket' and jabbed the binds through Fairis' throat. 4 ''TJeie wus n bin crowd on the streets, und four pnliei-iiiiii uuiek ly went after Hrack Maupm. lie fought them off with the butt of his revolver, and cot away from two f them, while tning to reload his pistol, but thev were too many for liim. and overpoweied him. "Theie was a b crowd on the streets, mid I reckon lis many as two or three bundled people who -were in that part of Richmond at I lie time must have ceii the killiiitr. The intense excitement prevailed for n while after the killing, as few were able to discover what the tiou ble between tho men had been. 1 know nut him: of the trouble between them; in fact I had known neither, jilthough o"nirant of tho fact that Hrack Maupin was mv second cou sin." The Muupins mo mi id to bo a Inrge nnd influential faniilv in that section, and it is said will make u hard fight to get Hrack Maupin out of the trouble. Just what the old grudge between him and Funis was. has not been denied up Vet, but is is said to date back ten or twelve 9 ears, to tho timo when Farris liv ed iii Madison, and it is reported thnt the two nam had home disiigiee incnt over u boundary fence.

GARRARD YOUNG MAN DIES OF HYDROPHOBIA Ed S. Elam Scratched or Bitten IV Negro And Develops Rabies, Physicians Say. Ed S. EJiim, n prominent vottujf farmer of the Spniuey section, ot GniTiird. county, died at his homa Sunday morning, of whnt many of tho physicians who saw him diag nosed as a virulent enso of hydro phobia. Tho young man is said to have becii bitten or scratched by a negro in an altercation in which the two became engaged nt tho farm vif Davo Duddcrar, near the Lincoln countv hue. about two weeks ago. Little attention was paid to tho in jury nt tho time. About a week ago, however, the early symptoms of rabies developed, it is said, though tho physicians did not nt the time suspect that it was such, incicly thinking that the young man was doveoping n heavy fever. When it was too late to give the Pasteur treatment, it was re cognized as rabies, and the death of the young man is said to have re moved nil doubt as to the character of the ailment of which ho was a victim. Calvin Elam, n biother of the un fortunate boy, was killed by a live wire iu Paris a short time ago. Young Elum was just 21 years of age und wus well cstepmed and liked by nil who knew him. He wns the son of Mr. nnd Mrs- W. C. Elam. Tho nffnir with the negro farm hand is said. to have been a trifling af fray, and nothing wns thought of it nt the time. When he first became sick, it was thought (lint he was suf fering from n severe fever, nnd he was given every attention by the physicians called nud the most care ful of nursing. When the infection became fully developed, a number of the physicians, still thought that it was a sort of blood poisoning, but the most of them diagnosed it as an undoubted attack of rabies. Several Stanford physicians were informed of tb- symptoms by their brethren of Lancaster, and sny thnt from what they were told they believe that young Elam was the victim of rabies. The funeral of the young mnn was held from the family residence Mon day afternoon, with interment in the Goshen cemetery. The parents have the sympathy of a large num ber of friends in their grief. MRS. LANE FINED $300 Danville Woman Who Killed her Husband Gets Off Easy. Danville, Ky., Oct. 5.

He soon proceeded to stake love to his landlady, and iu June they were unitod iu mairiuge in Lex ington. All the while Lnne had another wife nt Somerset, to whom he was married eight years ago and with whom ho lived only two days. She filed suit for divorce upon his mar ringo to his hist wife and when the sheriff of Hojle county served ft summons on him to appear iu the Puluski cncuit court, he told his lust wif.3 thnt ho owed some old costs nt Somerset nud would have to go theie and settle same. While theie his Somerset wife secured a divorce. I'pon his leturii to Danville ho told Mrs. I.nne they would have to be married again. He fuither told her that he had just gotten a divorce from his other wife nt Somerset and that ns a mutter of fact they had never been legally married. This enraged Mrs. I.nne and she declared sho would take her marriage ceitifi ente to Lawyer Harding nnd see what could be done. then Lane cursed and nbiised her, according to her btory, and threatened to kill her. He wns trying to take the pistol nwuy from her when she shot him. Both Mrs. laine ami .Mr. i.nne usea very vile epithets.
