house on Carson street, between Twenty
seveDtl and Twenty.eighth streets, South

About the same time it WAS noticed that

That Train-Leaping Prisoner.

In Tuesdays issue we gave an ac.
count of a boy arrested the day before
by Constable Northern, of Jefferson
county, on Capt. Mack Parker's train,
and stated while leaving out OF Messy
Creek he tried to leap from the coach,
but was caught by Constable Northern.
The prisoner, as we learn from DR..
Brazelton, of New Market, where the
officer got Off With him, was identi-
fled as the person " no was being hunt
ed. His name Is Arch. Palmer, q
youth Of IS or 10 years, and
his crime was the murder, on Satur-
day night, Srd inst, OF man named
Collins, saloon keeper,near Tszswell,
Claiborne county He was making
his way out of the country when ar
rested. He had never been on train
before, hence his recklessness. He
perhaps had no idea of the danger of
jumping from moving train, He
was taken back to Messy Creek, by
Constable Northern, and from there
to Tazewell, TO be handled according
as the law directs.

The music c-loviDg people Of Knox
vile are promised rich treat tos
morrow night. A concert is to be
given by the Euterpe Combination.
The best talent OF the city Will take
part in it, and the programme is very
attractive one. a-
One OF the features Of the occasion Ia
the song and dance, "Pretty as
a Picture" by Mdlle. Tinietta,
which we are assured will be richly
worth seeing and heoring. The prc-
gramme also embraces the rendition
OF the Potion Scene from Romeo aud
Juliet" by Mrs. French, whose popu-
larity with a Knoxville audience could
not be increased by anything we might
say.
The Fan Drill" by a number of
Knoxville's fairest young ladies will
be something new here and very at,
traclive. saa-
There will be full orchestra, con-
sisting OF distinguished artists. But
we need not enlarge. We are satisfied
that the entertainment will be one OF
the very best ever presented, and will
be surprised if the house IL not
crowded.

THE WEST POINT OUTRAGE.

New YORK, April THE Her.
aid publishes an account of the out
rage on the colored cadet Whitaker,
at West Point academy, in which it
is insisted that he inflicted injuries
upon himself. The dispatch is dated
at West Point, and reports that DR..
Alexander, post surgeon, declared
his belief that he was shamming
Inconsistencies when found in his
room. The doctor had Whitaker
taken to the hospital, or rath-
er had him walk there, and
then pursuant to direction
of General Schofeld, had
him stripped and thoroughly exam
med. The result of this examina-
tion was that not o bruise was found
on him. 1t was further ascertained
that his nose had not bled as he
stated. "You are not hurt-you
can go on duty" said the doctor,
and Whitaker st once repaired to
his quarters, and put in an appear
ance at 8 o'clock recitation and
is tonight occupying his room
in the barracks as if nothing
had happened. General Schofeld
is also reported to.have stated that
Whitaker had no enemies among
the cadets, and that there was no
indication so for that anyone Of
them had hand in inAicting the
injuries. The Herald's theory is
that Whitaker took this way Of es-
Gaping the consequences of his own
deficiencies and avoiding disgrace of
a failure.
WEST POINT, N. Y, April p
General Scho6eld says it has been
fully demonstrated that the outrage
on cadet Whitaker was not conn
mitted by members of the cadet
corps. The general had an inter-
view with Whitaker to-day and told
him that he was suspected Of hav-
ing mutilated himself. Whitaker
denied it Indignantly and demanded
court of inquiry, which was grants
ed, and it will convene Friday
morning.
