Several onion grower, got together
one day last week in this city and the
conversation turned to organizing. It
was the general opinion of those present
that if the thirty or forty onion growers
of this county would form an associa
tion and work together it would be very
beneficial to all concerned. It is said
that 400 bushels of onions can be raised
. . i . .
on an acre ol DesTrniau land, ana
tome have claimed story much larger
amount. There are o"re man 100 acres
planted to onions in Washington county
and dealers say that the quality is the
very best. After a general discussion ol
the matter, those present at the meeting
last Saturday decided to talk with their
neighbors and set sdy'tr meeting in

HAND SHOT AWAY
And Charlea Larson of Laurel la
Arrested Near Buxton.
John Buchanan, a 10-year-old son of
8. D. Buchanan, a former resilient of
this city, but now working on the right
of way lor the P R. A N. Company, had
the second finger of his right band shot
away last Sunday evening by a young
man of 17, named Charles Larson, of
Laurel, working tor the railroad
company. The two were in a barn near
Buxton, when Larson pointed a double
barreled shot gun at young Buchanan,
ying, it la alleged by tbe father of the
toy, that he inteuded to kill him. The
lad supposed Larson was only joking,
grasped tbe gun barrel, band over tbe
mussle, when the weapon was discharged
and his hand horribly mangled, the
middle finger being shot entirely away.
and was found twenty-four hours later
on the barn floor in the hay. Buchanan
tied his boy's hand up the best he
could and started at once for llillsboro,
nut the lad grew whiter and weaker aud
was on the verge of collapse w hen they
reached Greenville, and it was decided
to stop and have Dr. Parker attend to
the wound, which was doue. It is said
the doctor labored over the patient for
two and a halt hours before be could
stop the blood and get the wound
cleared of powder and properly dressed.
The boy was taken home, and is said to
be getting along all right.
On Tuesday the father came to this
city and got out a warrant (or the arrest
of Larson on the charge of "willfully
and unlawfully pointing a gun." He
said that at first be supposed the whole
thing was an accident and caused by
carelessness, but had since learned that
young Larson deliberately and without
cause attempted to kill tbe boy, and had
admitted as much to him. For this
reason he had made up bis mind to
have him punished. There had never
been any trouble between the boys and
young Buchanan said after the accident
that he did not have any idea that Lar
son meant to shoot.
Justice Bagley issued a warrant for
Larson's arrest late Tuesday afternoon
and an officer was sent to Buxton to
bring him in. The case will come up
before J ustice Bagley today.
