FATAL SHOOTING.
On WVednesday night last, during the
pet fornmanceo of Cole's Circus in Bayou
Sara, a difficulty occurred out side the
canvass, between a colored man named
Wesley Glover, and two ,white lads, nanm
od respectively, Frank Vresinsky, and
Leopold lRecche, in which Glover received
a pistol shot wonmd in the head which
caused almost instant death. It appears
from the combined statements of the I
witnesses, as elicited before the Coroner's
Jury, that the difficulty originated near
the circus tent, but that the killing took
place in the street, some hundred feet or
more froml the locality where the quarrel
began.
Young Vresinsky and Reeche weto im
mediately arrested and turned over to
Slheriff arrow, and were promptly con
fined in the parish jail.
Corouer Ball summoned a jury of in
quest who investigated the mtatter on
Thursday morning. The jury was com
posed as follows: J. S. Wooster, R. H.
Hlaile, Jr., Robert Phillips, Henry An
derson [c] Nelson Stephens Ie], who af
ter a thorough examination of tile wit
nesses found a verdict as follows: "We
the jurors find that the deceased came to
his death from a bmlletthrolgh tile head,
from a pistol discharged by the hand of
Frank Vresinsky, now in custody."
Upon this finding, young Reecho was
discharged from custody, and Vresinsky
is held to answer the awful charge.
The weapon exhibited before the Jury
of Inquest as the one supposed to have
been used in tile bloody tragedy, is a di
minutive cartridge derringer, carrying a
cartridge of the smallest size mlade, cali
bre W22. and looks like a toy, rather than
an instrument of death.
The young boy Vresinsky who is charg=
ed with the commission of this awful
crime is quite a youth, not being, it is
said, over 14 years of age.
A knife, which may be properly de.
scribed as a small sized kitchen knife,
was discovered lying near the body of
tihe deceased whten removedl, and is sup
posed to have belonged to hitm.
As tile charge against young Vresinsky I
will be investigated befire tile proper
tribunal, when all the facts connected
therewith will be elicited, we refrain
front making any comment, save to point
to the awfnil 'omnlentary atffrded by
this sad oclnrrelnce, upon the prevailing
custom of ipermitting the carrying of
concealed weapoIns, in violation of the
law, andl more particularly by children.
And here we will tke oceasion to di
rect' particular attentito to the timely
notice, to be fotiud inl anotiher colU'nll,
of Mr. ChI:s. Spencer, Const;abl e of Blayou
Sara, in relationt to this very mpatter of
carrying concealed weapons.

large aid seemed to appreciate the rich
fund of anmusemuent spread before thenl
by the management. Tile performance
was exceptionally good. Indeed it is
rarely the case that circuses of the pres
eut day, are provided with artists pos
sessing the merits, in all the varied doe
partlnents of the profession, as are those
employed by Mr. Cole. Two of the best
riders who have ever appeared before a
liayou Sara audiecue, from tile
days of Spalding & Rogers up to the
present time, Messrs. Gardner and Odell,
together with the agile and daring Melle
Claire, whose feats upo0 the swinginug
rings, 30 feet above the ground, challeng
ed the aplplause and admiration of the
assemblage, were prominent among the
many excellent perfobrmers who combined
to ruender the occasion one of enjoyable
Iamusement. The clowns too, proved to
be the right men in the right place, and
succeed in imparting that splice to the en
tL trtainlent that gives to the circus its
Speculiar and characteristic charmctisti h. Too

"REVOLVING4 HEAD"
COTrTON GIN.
PAtecntl July 15th, 1873P
PlICes REDUCED TO $4 50 PER FAW
71I1IS GIN bhi been in use for the Ins
four seasons, and several recent int
provements have been added. It obvi
ates all friction at tile ends of the cotton
Dox, prevenouts the roll from breaking,
and gives a larger Vield of lint from thi
same amount of seed than any other ge:u
in use. The Revolving Head lightens -
the draft and causes the Gin to run faster
with less driving power, thus doing a
great deal more work within the sanI,
time while economizing steam or anin,:;
po.i er thanu any other Gin. The seed he
ing ginned very close, the length of the
staple is increased producing cotton on
this account of a greater market varnle
This improved value, given by length of
staplle, willh extra production oflint added
to increased amonllt of work done, nllonln
than covers the cost of the Gin In every
100 bales ginned. Testimonials sent by
mail on application.
