At intervals of about one week I would be attacked with spells of severe and most excruciating pain, always commencing in the region of my kidneys. The pain would then eo upwards and affect my body and head, and seemed to penetrate my very eye-balls, creating the most intense (suffering, lasting about eight hours each spell.

I resorted to all lands of medicine without benefit. Several doctors treated my ease, but none gave relief. I finally used B. 13. B.

Mr. no.

Unfortunately the boat got too close to the dam, and the occupants losing control of it, the boat and the young -man and, the two ladies were swept over the dam into the whirling, pool: sixteen feet 'below, from they, were rescued only the B-OBt heroic exertions of several parties who were standing at the mill.

A young man named Hanna, 0 Catalooche, displayed a most commendable heroism, and to his efforts are the parties mainly due for their escape from drowning.

M. A Bad Affair A Shooting Which May Result in Death. About one o'clock Sunday morn ing difficulty occurred in this city on Patton Avenue, at the intersect tion of Bailev street with the Ave nue, which ended in cutting and shooting, and may end in the death of one of tbe participants. 1 It seems that Jeff Gainey, a ne gro, who has been employed about the Buncombe Warehouse, walked upon the Btrect visit" an" eating house. He was quite drunk.

How he came in, contact with other. par ties we have not been able to ascertain; but, the next thing heard, was that he complained of having been cut badly, and pointed to two men. Messrs. Geo. Caverness and William Cowan, as having cut him, and called ir help to arrest them.

Another colored man ran. out and approached the men to arrest them, while Gainey was yelling for the, police. Gainey pointed out Mr. Cowan as having done the cutting, and when he was approached by the negro said he had not done it, but that if he, Gainey, was cut, it was done by Caverness. Gai ney walked up to Cayerness ana took hold of him, at the same time yelling for the police.

As he caught nold of him, a pistol shot was fired, and Gainey loosed his hold, and staggered to where Mr. Cowan and the other nartv were standing, on CI Bailey 6treet, saying he was shot and killed. Caverness immediately left, and has not been seen by the authorities since. Gainey went up to Cowan and finally fell over on his back. About this time officers Smith and McDowell ai rived and arrested Mr.

Cowan, but search, so far. has not revealed Mr. Caverness. The negro. Gainey was shot in the Btomach, and baddly cut." Another negro who saw the skirmish, said that the man who Gainey had hold of, and, who evidently did the shooting, did the cutting.

At this writing Gainey is in a verv critical condition and physicians-say he cannot live. He-is reportpd to bo a very baa impudent, notorious, dangerous negro; has had several very bad difficulties here lately, is drinking often aiid when drunk very offensive. He is from 'Amen S. C. Mr.
