A WONDERFUL INvENTIoN.-F. A. Gleason,

charging he scrap in receptacle provided Tor
that purpose. The feeding process is reduced
10 the simplest mechanical movements, ana

connections. The machine has been ex-
amined by A. L. Hoiley, chief engineer OF
the Be,senler Steel Works of the United

the Tredegar Iron WORKS, Richmond, and
other experts. and has caused much astoniSh-

BLooDsHED FOLLOWS BLooDsHED.

A oulrrel cpsued between the members Of
the slaye-dealiug firm, which had been dis.
solved bv limitation within few days Of the
murderous deed, as TO who should pay the
enormous expenses of the trial. One party
contendcd that the firm should be charged
with the amount, and the other that Bolton
himself ought TO foot the bill alone. The
Quarrel resulted seriously to the contendlDg
parties. Ike Bolton, who did the killing,
died natural death some years ago. One at-
ter another the rest were killed 10 a'terca.
tions with each other. Finally Tom. Dickens
killed Wade Bolton, as before mentioned, by
shooting him down in front Of Court Square.
Some months later Dickens was aSsa>sInated d
white riding along the public road, a dozen
miles or so from this ely, and near bis home.
4 few months after that Tom. Dickens, his
sop. while trying to gather testimony TO pro-
secute the supposed murderers OF bis father,
let his lolded gun drop careessly. Tbe con.
cnssion caused it to go of and send the con.
tents through his bosom, causing bis deat6.
This was the last death by violence. Since
then several prominent members of the ian.
liz have died IN the usual way, and the sur
yiyors are 10 litigation as 10 how the estate
shall be divided. Immense sums have heen
expended in feeling attorneys IN the civil
suits since tue trial of Ike Bolton. Wade
Bolton gave to single member of bis coun-
sci plantation on the raIhoatchie river, 10
Missi issippi, which cost him $4,000. Tue
place. however, failed 10 realize for The at.
torney more than one-sixth of its original
cost.
The bloody feud having terminated, the
law contest will be likely to end some day ,
and after that the heirs Of the estate will
doubtless receive tbeir respective shares
that is, If any thing remains to divide.

"THE LoTus FLowER.n-The beneht Of
the iavorite Artists, Miss Rose Wood and
Mr.. Lewis Morrison, drew the largest
audience OF the week. The title OF the
play is not such as will catch the fancy
Of the average gallery god, and, as was
expected, the upper portion Of the house
presented an atlenuated appearance but
down stairs every seat was filled and
many persons were compelled to stand.
A society drama entitled Lotus Flow
en- said to be the exclusive property Of
and played only by Miss Wood and Mr.,
Morrison, was presented with fair cast
Mr.. Morrison most ably sustained two
entirely dissimilar characters, displaying
u wonderful command OF his features,
The characters were "Ravul," the hus'
band Of "Julia Van Trachenburg,' and
"Ulric Maienau," his rival. II the pro-
grammes had not been convenient for
reference few would have believ.
ed the handsome Baron and the
crafty priest to have been per-
sonaied BY the same individual. Miss
Wood, as Julian Won Trachenburg,"
the Baroness, won renewed favor. The
charming simplicity OF her style Of acting
always has its own reward, and the hit
which she has made here shows that she
we'll deserves the prestige which she has
acquired in other cities. All the parts
were rendered with spirit, and gave great
satisfaction.
The piece was maguifeently mounted.
The opening scene has never been excelled
in grandeur and beauty in this city. The
Lotus Flower" will be given for the
second time this evening, and again at the
matinee on Saturday afternoon.
