[ Special Telegram to TIIK Br.i : . ] A shooting affray , resulting In the death of'ono man nnd the ncrious and perhaps fatal wounding of another , occurred hero at GHO : this afternoon. Some days slnco Albert Cummlngs , for merly cook at the Gardner house , obtained a Judgment against Jiunes Frame , proprietor of the house , for § 3. Frame had seen the Justice who had rendered the judgment and promised to pay it , but did not , and un'cxo- cu'.ion ' was issued and placed In the hand * of Constable Charles Winfroy , who.saw Frame several times beforeho tomptoJ to make a levy , and some 111 feeling was aroused. This afternoon Frame visited the Justice and wanted to pay the amount. Ho was told to settle with the constable , but said ha would have nothing to do with Him and de clared that If ho attempted to take any ot his stuff ho would shoot. Not much atten tion was paid to him , and the constable' attempted to levy on some of Frame's hogs. No ono saw the beginning of the trouble , hut the constable says that Frame drew a revolver nnd put it against him , but that ha did not bcllove ho would shoot. Ho did shoot , howovar , and Winfrey pulled his gun nnd returned the lire. Kliootlnc fit Short As near as cnn'ho ascertained Frame fired once and snapped his gun again , but tht hammer caught on Winfrey's clothlnjr and did not go off. Winfrey emptied his gun nnd then walked over to wlioro Frame was lying , took up Frame's gun and with both guni in his hands walked Homo , n distance of over throe blocks. Frame was hlt < twice , first In the groin and then in tlio breast near the heart and died in a few minutes. Do was unublo to speak from the time hu-was shot.
