Bad Whiskey at Country Dance Bad whiskey, two revolvers and some excited boys were the main features at a country dance at Crabtree last evening given by Jim Kinzer in honor of his marriage this week, and which nearly ended in a tragedy. "Kinzer had arranged the dance, which was given on the second floor of his father's home near Crabtree, and things were in full swing and everybody having a good time when the door opened and Willis Foren, another young farmer of that section, who had been drinking heavily, staggered into the room and started a rough house. This act was resented by Kin zer who started to eject Foren from the room, which started a row and both finally retired to the outside where thy were to decide the matter with guns. Kinzer, upon reaching the yard, immediately pulled his gun and would have shot Foren where he stood if his father, Henry Kin zer, who had followed him down stairs, had not grabbed his arm as he was about to pull the trig ger. Although Foren 's life was k.ived, the gun was discharged, the bullet entering the thigh of the elder Kinzer and inflicting a bad but not serious flesh wound, which will keep him from work for several days. The affair created much ex citement in the little village, but as yet no warrant has been issued for the arrest of anyone. Albany Herald. Zook the Painter, will hang your paper for you.
