The Killing of. Captain Jones.

The Killing Of Captain Jones.
The Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer
has the following in reference to the
killing of Capt. Catcsby +. Jones in
Salem, Alabama "Capt. Catesby +.
Jones, who was second in command
of the iron clad Merrimac at the time
she nearly destroyed the Federal
fleet in Hampton Roads, died in Sa
lem, Alabama, on Thursday last from
wounds received at the hands of A.
j. Harrall, a leading merchant of
that place, the day previous. From
all the information we can gather, it
seems that Jones son, aged seven,
and Harrall's son, aged ten, became
involved in a difficulty and fought,
young Jones whipping Harrall. Up.
on investigation Mrs. Jones found her
boy was to blame, and wrote an
apologize note to Mrs. Iarrall, who
was near neishbor, and made her
boy carry the note, with instructions
to apologize to young Harrall, and
also to give some fruit to the latter to
add to the pleasantness. On the ar
rival of young Jones, Mrs. Harrall,
without perceiving the note at all,
told her boy he had to whip Jones'
hoy, whcrcupon they fought, which
would have resulted in a second vic
tory for Jones but for the interference
"fMrs. Mabry, who took young Jones
home and told Capt. Jones Of the
fact. He got his hat and usual walk
ing cane and went to lIarrall's. Ar
irving at the residence he was asked
by Harrall if he came for a difficulty.

THEY BELONG TO THE BRIDE IF THEY
ARE GIVEN BEFORE THE MARRIAGE
CEREMONY.
Mrs. Kate Welsh, widow of John D.
Welsh, Jr. who died in Cuba in April,
1874, sued her husbands executors to re-
cover 1880 worth of silyerware and
other articles, which she claims as her
property. The executors reply that
these articles were wedding presents to
MIR. and Mrs. Welsh at their marriage
made principally by his friends; that Mr..
Welsh and his wife separated by mutual
consent fourteen months before his death
she taking her personal property, and al
so some articles of silver which he claims
ed as his, and that by his will he gave
his property and the guardianship of his
four-year- old child to his executors. The
case was tried yesterday in New York
before Judge Larremore.
| Mr. Bartlett moved for dismissal of
the complaint, claiming that as the pres
ents were made to the husband and wife
Jointly, they by law belonged to the hus>
band, Notwithstanding the law of 1S4S,
enabling married women to hold prop
erty in their own name.
| Mr.. Shepard replied that as the evil
dence showed that the presents were
made a few hours before the marriage,
Mrs. Welsh had become vested in at least
an undivided one-half interest in them
as single woman, and that by the law
of 1913 that interest was continued, not
withstanding her marriage, and that on
the death of her husband she, as survl>
vor, became sole owner. Besides, we'd
ding presents were generally made to
the bride, and not to herself and her ia
tended husband jointly. "i-
i Judge L Larremore refused to dismiss
the complaint. snd the jury gave plaintiff
a verdict for either the return of the ar
ticles or their value, which was assessed
at 1926. A.

DIR. WALKER A PRISONER.

DR.. Joseph Walker, the millionaire
nronrietor of the Vinegar Bitters, was a
prisoner in Jefferson Market Police Court
on Monday. He was highly indignant
at having to march in the streets with
the raft of the morning watch prisoners,
and at having been held all night at the
Charles street police station. He is a
white-haired man of 10 years. He was
arrested on complaint of his wife Etlza
lane for abandonment. The warrant
was granted on the 18th of October last,
hut DR.. Walker kept himself moving
from State to State, and officer Casey
was unable to serveit. Finally the Doc
tor was found at Mechan . Parker,s
stables, in Fifteenth street, near Slxth
avenue, on Sunday evening, and the OIL
Ger caught him.
The Doctor swore, as the officer tool
him Into custody, that Eliza Jane shoulc
not get cent, and then added 'slf sht
wants any money she may go TO nei
paramour."
Mrs Walker was married to DIR. Walker
in San Francisco, on the Both of August
1868, and now lives at 343 West Fifteenth
street, in this city. Che has son b,
DR.. Walker, nine years old, and son BY

She makes affidavit that DR.. Walker ha'
abandoned her since August last, AM

that she has no means of her own, ant
that she and her children are likely Il

swears further that the Doctor is bulld

TIE Government of Guadeloupe Of
fers the sum of $4,000 to the inventor
of a new process of extraction OF juice
of sugar cane or OF sugar faonca-
ton, this prize to be given to whoever
obtains from the cane yield of fourteen
per cent. of sugar, and the cost OF appil-
cation of the new process not to exceed
forty per cent of the value realized. Ihe
cane raised at Guadeloupe contains 10
per cent. of sugar, and, hitherto, per-
centage of 9.4 on an average, has resulted
from The ordinary factory machlnery.-
Recently, M. Ducharsaing invented an
inhibition process, by which, 1t appears,
the Weld is increased from "a to nearly
twelve per CENT; in fact, according TO
the claim of the inventor, the advantage
derived from bis process Is gain IN tne
percentage OF yield of 2.S3. AT any rate
NJ. Ducharsaing's invention was deened
sufficiently important to warrant In Ine
awarding to him of $4,000 prize. The
present premium, therefore, is second
one, and it calls for still further
Improvement TO be made. The ex-
periments on at least 100000 pounds ol
cane are to be conducted under the aus
