    SHOOTING AFFRAY -- Last Wednesday evening, LINVILLE BOWERS who resides a couple of miles from this city, in Benton county, went into the Albany Brewery, and getting into an altercation with Mr. Rogers, one of the proprieters, drew a pistol and fired two shots at Mr. Rogers, but fortunately neither of them took any effect. About this time a man who works in the brewery caught Bowers' hand from behind and wrenched the pistol from him, when Mr. Rogers shattered a few beer glasses over his head, cutting it severely in several places. Bowers was arrested, charged with an assault with an intent to kill, and after a hearing before Recorder Arnold, was held to bail in the sum of $500.00 to answer at the next term of Circuit Court.
