TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Love. Hatred and venEeanee "A
Young Man Slain by his
sweeihearf's Father.

Yesterday young man named I. ID.
Atkins was killed 10 terrible ARRAY at
Yorkyille, in Gibson county, some sixty
or seventy miles north of Memphis, by a
man named j. Fl. Lasley.
Atkins had been paying his addresses
to the daughter Of Lasley for some time,
and the father most bitterly opposed the
match, which was about to come of. A
few days since Atkins challenged Lasley
to fight duel, but the latter declined to
settle the difficulty in that manner.
Yesterday Atkins went to the store Of
Lasley, in Yorkville, and abused him in
very severe manner. Lasley took it
quietly, and did not resent. Finally,
Atkins with two cooked pistols rushed in
on Lasley, who drew dag ger and fatally
stabbed his antagonist. The wounded
man staggered off twenty steps and fell
dead All the parties connected stood
high in the community, and the affair
caused great excitement and general
gloom. We did not learn that Lasley
was arrested. From what we hear the
homicide was com mitted in sheer self
defense.

This we found to be one of the best
schools that we visited, and the
scholars and teachers were compli-
mented by Prof. Cow. The singing
of this school was the best that we
heard during the day, and among the
little children there were some fine
voices. The ROTATIONS and other
exercises were excellent, and we were
gratifed with the examination of this
school.
The Intermediate Schools will be
examined to- morrow.

INAUGURATION OF THE ARTISAN
SPRINGS PARK-The inaugural tete
at the Artesian Springs Park last
night was a grand success. At an
early hour In the evening the street
cars commenced running full, and as
the night advanced the crowd in
creased, until by nine o'clock the ca
pacity of the road proved INSULT
cient for the demand. The elite of
the city was out en- masse, pre-
senting as brilliant an array of
beauty and chivalry as ever graced
those beautiful grounds, formed by
nature for a public Park and trans
formed by the good taste and munifi
cence OF the propiietors into perfect
paradise of beauty. Four thousand
beautiful Chinese lanterns and globes
arranged with admirable taste and
skill, lighted up the ground with
splendor that was literally dazzling.
Col. Wehler the Superintendent was
in his element, and had a pleasant
smile and kind word for all.
The Cornet Band discoursed fine
music, and the night, until late
hour, was spent with real delight by
all who participated.
We hope these brilliant festivals
will be continued weekly at least, if
not oftener. A very sensible lady re-
marked to us last night that the pro-
prietors of these beautiful grounds
should be considered real benefactors
to the citizens of Evansville, and SO
they are.

NEEDS ArrENTIoN.-The old Bap-
fist Church building, on the corner of
Clark and Centre Streets, which be-
longs to the city, we believe, is in a
dilapidated condition. The windows
have nearly all been broken out, and
the building is going to rack and
ruin" One of the cellar gratings
on the pavement in the front of the
building has fallen down, and there is
danger that some one may fall in
there and get badly injured, and make
the city pay damages for the same.
Somebody should look after this
building. n. -.
