She Did Not Carry Out Threat to Commit Murder.

Had Mrs. Frank Dennis, of Water Valey, carried out her threat to cut Mrs. Edwin Moore’s head off with a hoe Mrs. Moore would now have been a corpse, but she did not, and Mi's. Moore was alive yesterday, and came to Lowell and swore out a warrant for Mrs. Denis, charging her with threatening to cut off her head with a hoe and calling her vile names. Deputy Sheriff Jacob Loesch, of Shelby, brought the prisoner before Judge Weaver at Lowell yesterday morning and the judge fined her $3 and costs. Mrs. Dennis immediately swore out a warrant for Mrs. Moore and she will be brought to Lowell today to answer to the charge of provoking an assault. It is an old sued betwen the two women and it breaks out fresh every few months.
