whether 1t was a gun or stick. Thomas
Cook was with Mr.. Dixon and saw the man,
being directed, he says, TO the hustle going on
at Laws store. A. l.. Dickerson white saw
the man running the same time that Amy
Washington did; hailed him but he made no

gun and paid no attention to It; about half an
hour after the firing George Thomas came in
and told me that james Law had been shot.
Thomas complained of being sick, and went
into his room and threw himself on the bed.
As soon as the gun fired, Thomas wife ran
out of the house, screaming that her husband
had been shot, or she was afraid he had been,
and ran off in the direction of the Laws.
John jackson (colOred) says he heard the
gun and the screaming; started in that direc-

His Patent Noea

In the battle of Gettysburg soldier
received saber cut across the face
which moved off a section of his nose.
He was taken in hand by Partisan
artist, who restored the nose to life-like
proportions. In the composition of
the artificial organ rubber and gum
were used, and the nose maker did not
think it necessary to caution the nose
buyer against temperature of 1856 de-
grees Fair. The soldier took Turk
ish bath in San Francisco, and on look
ing IN mirror after long bake in the
hottest room, discovered that his nose
was blistered, bulged, puckered, shape
less. 1t was impossible to detach the
artificial section, and the poor fellow
will have to &c to Paris to have it re-.
paired.

Wonder What They'll Do Next.

The negro minstrel, Thatcher, the
other evening told a ludicrous story to
big audience at the Grand Opera
House here, and put catch phrase
into the mouth of Indiana olitans that
bias kept them laughing ever since 1t
is all about two sailors and poll par
rot, and the expression of the parrot
will illustrate perfectly the effect of
the Florida decision by the Electoral
Com mission upon the Democrats.
Two sailors who had parrot with them
went into a magician's show in an up
per room, in some foreign city. The
three constituted The entire audience.
After each feat Of the magician's ore
of the sailors would remark, "That's
pretty good; wonder what they'll do
next?" Finally one of the sailors ask
ed permission to smoke, which the ma
gician granted, forgetting that IN the
room beneath was stored an immense
quantity of gunpowder. The Jack-tars
and the parrot continued to enjoy the
show, one sailor adding the pleasure of
his pipe and the other remarking after
each trick. "That's pretty good; won
der what they'll do next 2" A spark
from the smokers pipe CHANGED to drop
through crack in the floor into the
powder, and something suddenly occur

all. "rose above party prejudice and
were all blown to kingdom cone In a
million of fragments-all except the
poll parrot. He landed in heap of
bruised flesh and burnt feathers on 81

was terribly domoralized. It took him
some moments to collect himself, and

A Large Draining Scheme.
Florida AQrinllltnrfsf

Lake Okeechobee is about forty-fve
miles long and twenty-five miles wide.
This does not include the marsh lands
sur ounding it, which must be of still
larger dimensions. The water of the
lake is very shallow, seldom over seven
feet, and ine very few places ten feet
deep, and in most parts boats cannot
approach within two or three miles of
the shore on account Of the shallow
ness. No fish live in the lake-not
even an alligator can be found-as the
water is stagnant aud very offensive to
the smell. There is nothing to prevent
the draining of this lake into toe Calico
sahatchie River. A canal about eight
miles long will accomplish it, the river
having q sufficient fall to allow OF It's
being done. At present the outlet
from the lake to the river is closed up
by saw-glass and lily-pads, throwing
the waters of the lake, in the rainy
season, into the Everglades. What a
grand speculation there could be made
by draining the lake and cutting the
land into forty-acre farms For sew
eral years it would give the most splen-
did rice crops ever seen, and then
comes in sugsrcane, which would
almost rattoon forever. We have new
er heard of any country possessing
such grand belt of cane land that
could be SO easily turned to advantage.

EIGHTEENTH DAY.

WASHINGTON, February 22.-The
Commission met at II O'Clock. Stanley Matthews
opened the bail on the Republican side, contin-
uing his argument commenced yesterday, closing
with a declaration that he had appeared not as
counsel for any party but in support of the great
CONSTITUTE snail principle regardless of any popular
clamor that mi ght be excited. FOR Grover to take
upon himself executive, judicial and legislative
powers, was to bring about complications that
would make the confusion of government mex
tricable. Judge Strong said the counsel had now
consumed two hours each, and still the question OF
the admissibility of the evidence was before the
commission. He thought 1t should be submitted
now, subject to the judgment of the Commission
as to it's effect. The proposition was adopted: but
neither the papers called for in the subpoena duoes
tecuna served upon the Postmaster General were at
hand nor were the witnesses present, and the Com
mission took recess After the recess Merrick
offered certified copy of the commission Of John
w. Watts as postmaster. dated February Is; 1874
After taking evidence with regard to the time and
manner of Watts resignation, John W. Watts was
oalled to the stand apo ested to certain facts re-
latiye 10 his resignation. Mr.. Everts commenced
his argument at half past four, and followed by
Merrick who addressed the commission on the
Damocratic side. he claimed Oronin held the
certicate with the broad seal of the state attached
M II he had the imminent to the title of Office. he
also claimed that the principle of the commissions
I~.,ision in Florida and Louisiana would apply to
the Oregon case. At O'Clock the commission went
into secret session. and remained therein until 1920
when IL adjourned till tomorrow az 1880.
