though the globe was shattered. He is sup
posed to have fallen between the cars.
A specialt to the Cincinnati Enquirer says
that in the neighborhood of Fluviana
Court House, Va, Colonel Wilson Houchins
murdered his family with an ak while they
were seated at breakfast. The victims were
his wife, mother-in-law and little son. After
completing the terrible work, Houchins
went to his ~barnyard, seated himself-it is
believed on a keg of blasting-powder-and
smoked his pipe. After finishing his smoke,
it is supposed he touched off his internal
machine with fire from his pipe through
the bung-hole of the keg. A fearful noise
followed the explosion, attracting neigh
bors twelve miles distant. An investigation
of the premises disclosed a portion OF
Houchins' body up in the branches of a
tree, forty feet from the ground, the head
on top of the barn, and portions of the
trunk and legs in other portions of the
barnyard. The keg contained forty pounds
of heavy blasting powder, which had been
used by Houchins for blasting purposes in
his quarry near by.
In an ARRAY recently, at the corner OF
Cherry and Union-streets, Nashville, Tenn,
between Sam. Hicks and Edwin, Nathaniel,
Jere, and Jones Baxter, sons of Judge
Nathaniel Baxter, Democratic nominee for
reelection as Judge of the Circuit Court,
Hicks and Jones Baxter were fatally shot.
The former received several shots from the
Baxters and had his skull fractured in two
places by blows from the muzzie of a pistol
in the hands of one of them. Jones Baxter
received only one shot, near the heart, and
from a party unknown. Hicks expired in a
few minutes, and Jones Baxter lived scarcely
an hour.

A Story Of the Tower.

1t was during the stormy timesin En-.
gland, when the wars of York and Ian
caster were raging, that Sir Thomas
Wyatt, a fierce Lancastrian, was con.
fined in one of the dismal dungeons Of
the Tower of Londcn.
Sir Thomas was not very comfortable,
as you may suppose. He was cold and
hungry. One day, as he sat there in
his loneliness and misery, a cat made its
appearance in his cell. He took the an.
imal and warmed his numb fingers in
her soft fur, and laid her in his breast,
where she scuddled, quite delighted
with this kind treatment. Next day
pussy came again, and, wonderful to
tell, carried in her mouth a pigeon,
which she laid at the prisoner s feet.
The next time the jailer came to visit
him Sir Thomas complained of his hard
fare, and begged for some meat. Hif
request was gruf1y refused. IF I pro
vide the game will you dress it for me p
inquired the old knight.
"That 1 WILL" said the jailer, think
ing himself quite safe in making the
promise. What was his surprise wher
the pigeon was produced. But ht
kept his word, and brought it to Sil
Thomas again nicely cooked.
The cat continued to furnish hin
from time to time with these rare-bits
1t is needless to say that she stood higf
in the affections of the prisoner.
After some years Sir Thomas was re
leased. He ever afterward included al
cats in his love and esteem in memor,
of his b~enefactress.
A portrait of the old knight is still t.
be seen in South Kensington gallery
with his faithful cat beside him, and tn
pigeon in a pan.

NEWS SUMMARY.
WashtnRton.

On Thursday, July IS, Treasurer Gill
fllan sent to each national bank in the
country a list OF the United States deposit
tories, with the information that gold
and standard silver dollar could be OBJ
tanned at those Offices in exchange for green
backs. At the close of business in the
Treasury July 20, the result of the action
of the Treasurer had been the taking by the
national banks of $250,0OO in silver in ex-
change for ~greenbacks. This amount was
taken by banks in the Middle States, prin-
cipally in Pennsylvania, which were first
reached By the mails. The amount taken by
each bank is from 5000 to $4,000, except
one bank in Pennsylvania, which took $780,
900. The department is greatly encouraged
by this speedy response to its invitation of
July IS, and regard it as an evidence
that a large number of other banks, when
they receive the notification sent them, will
respond in a similar manner. The pros
poets are for the speedy and general circula.
ton Of the silver dollar, and the drawing in
a corresponding amount of greenbacks viii,
Of course, be SO much resumption.
It has long been a subject of uncertainty
and conjecture where the Indians obtained
their ammunition during hostilities with
the whites. Aletter received by Secretary
Schurz from the United States COMMISSIONS
at Salt Lake City, dated the 18th inst, sheds
some light on the subject. The Com
missioner says that the Mormon co-opera.
tive stores throughout Utah and portions of
Idaho supply hostile Indians directly or
indirectly with all kinds of ammunition,
and that these stores, under the manage.
ment Of the Mormon priesthood, are located
along the Indian border, and in all the
towns and hamlets in the Territory Of
Utah, and also in Idaho.

Facts of Great Interest to All-Time and
Money Nayed.

All families are interested in their family
physicians. They may take quack medicines
for slight ailments, but when true sickness
comes, then must come the family doctor.
ALI are interested then in this matter, and
every family newspaper should give them
valuable information and advice.
Every one knows that in times gone by,
the great family doctors were educated in
New York and Philadelphia, but that in
these days such is no longer the case. The
great cities of the West, Louisville, Chicago,
Cincinnati, all contain colleges in which the
very best education is to be obtained.
The cost of this education is far less than
it is in Eastern cities; a fact of great inter
est to parents and guardians, and to all in
terested in medical students. Indeed, so
important is this money question to our
readers, that VIZ must give them informa-
which will save for themselves and their
friends both time and money.
In the Atlantic cities a student has to pay
for two courses of lectures $155 each; or
$50 for two. His diploma fee is $50; all
fees amounting to $40. His board for two
sessions is $3.50, or $40 for each. His fees
and board costing 1920. These fact and
figures are official.
In Louisville, Chicago, ETC., where the
medical colleges are equally as good as they
are in New York, the student pays for his
two courses $65 each, or $3.50 for the two.
His diploma fee costs $50. All fees amount.
ing to $160for two sessions. His board for
two sessions costs $3.50, or $50 for each,
The entire fee and board costing 1920. These
figures are also official, and show that the
student who goes to the great colleges Of
the West saves fully $500 in the cost of a first
class medical education. If to this amount
be added that of increased cost of travel, il
is evident that $500 would be a moderate es
innate of the amount saved him. Indeed
students residing in the New England and
Atlantic States can, by going to frst-clas'
medical colleges in the West, ave from $20t
to $500 in the cost OF a medical education
Surely these great money facts cannot fail t.
interest every reader, and cause him to bring
them to the attention of all studying o.
about 10 study medicine. Parents and pre-
ceptors will, we feel sure. thank us for thi'
valuable information.
But there are other facts now TO be givel
of even greater interest; facts which SHOW
that a student cannot only save $500 in tn
cost OF his medical education, but that h
can gain one full additional course. That is t
say, the student will, in seventeen months
obtain three instead of two courses of lee
lures and save also $500.
Among the many catalogues of medica
colleges recently issued, that of the Louis
vile Medical College louisville, Ky.,)i
! exceedingly interesting. Indeed the fac
presented therein are SO important that W
must present them to our readers.
It appears that the Faculty Of the Loui

always steadily opposed libustering. There
was not the semblarce of a bargain at that
conference. The object Of The Republicans
seemed to be to remove the anxiety in
regard to the course Hayes would pursue
toward South Carolina and Louisiana.
Witness at some length referred to numer-
GUS interviews with Grant, who promised to
issue an order for the withdrawal of troops
soon after the Electoral count was com
pleted. When asked whether the payment
to the Nichols government would be con.
strued into a violation of status u in
augurated by Grant, the latter perpetrated
the only joke witness heard from him, by
relating the story of the Irishman who had
joined a temperance society, but did not OBJ,
ject to a drop being put in his soda water
unbeknownst to him.
General Sypher and ex-Congressman
Morey testified before the Committee at
Atlantic City on July 26. Nothing very i'm.

on the face of the returns Nichols and
Tilden Electors had a majority; that the
Returning Board threw out enough votes to
elect Packard, and after that threw out
one thousand Eve hundred andtwelve votes
to elect the Hayes Electors. This condi
ton of things was discussed by prominent

culation was sent TO Florida, and SO as te

Witness, in answer to a question by But
Ter, said the result in the State showed tina
both Packard and Hayes were elected under
the laws. Witness then testified at length
regarding the Packard Government and The
McVeagh Commission. He said among
other things that after Packard was inaug
urated he could not be removed from office
unless by impeachment, and no attempt wa.
made to do this.
