Gen Fitzgerald being asked what truth
there was in the reports thar he and 9TH
ers who were nominees ON the Green
back Republican ticket had come here to
seek support of the administration in set
ting up Il dual government in Mississippi,
said there was not word of truth in the
matter He came for otherpurposes, and
irrespective of the result in the recent
Mississippi election. He opposed any at
tempt of the kind referred to and says
that the Mississippi Republicans and In
dependents are able to take care of them
selves; and they will abide the results of
the election as declared in favor of the
Democratic ticket. The proposition to
prevent the installation of Gen. Lowry
as governor he says, has never entered
his head, and the republicans have
ever entertained such an idea. He fur
sthar states that three weeks ago there
was a joint meeting of the executive com
mittees OF the republican and greenback
parties in Mississippi, and the subject
was dismissed as one altogether foolish
and impracticable. His emphatic denial
it Is thought, will rob these rumors of
the sensational excitement they might
have otherwise aroused in Mississippi

DEAD IN DIRT.
AN AWFUL SCENE IN A GREAT CHRISTIAN
GITY-A CHILD ALONE WITH A CORPSE

AN AWFUL SCENE IN A GREAT CHRISTIAN
GIYY-A CHILD ALONE WITH A CORPSE.
IN Hwas reported at the Twenty first Pre-
cinct station yesterday morning by Owen
Eagan that woman named Ellen Woods
forty years of age, living at No. 100 East
Forty second street, had died SUDDENLY
last Tuesday morning, and that her body
had not been buried. Officer James Cum
ming was sent to the place, where he
found the facts substantially as reported.
The honse was occupied by number of
families, and Mrs Woods had been living
for some time in a single room on the
third floor, with her husband and little
boy, who is about six years old. About
a month ago her husband obtained
work on the Hudson River Railroad, and
left his family for Poughkeepsie. He has
not been heard from since that time, and
his wife, was left without means of sup
port, was thought to have died of starva-
ton and neglect The stories told by
the other inmates of the tenement were
very contradictory, some saying that the
woman had died from drink and others
that she had been sick for long time
withrheumatism, which caused her death
Her husband it was said had been sent
for but he had failed to reply, and for
this reason the police was summoned to
remove the body. The officer obtained
a certificate of death from the coroner, as
as the woman had no medical attendance
and the body was removed to the nor
que where an inquest is to be held this
morning. The child was taken in
charge by the Society for the Prevention
Of Cruelty to Children. The room in
which tha woman died was in an indescri-
bible condition of filth the stencil arising
from the refuse scattered about the floor
being nauseating. AS shd had several
relatives living in the city who visited
her frequently and could have taken
charge of the body, the police arc inclin-
ed to regard the circumstances of her
death as suspicious

advancement of measures ana men
which, in my humble Judgment
were best suited to elevate the state
and county in the scale OF Wha'
tends to make a people conten'eo,
prosperous and great.
That grave political evils nave
existed in this county. cannot Win
truth be gainsaid. am satisfied,
however, that large majority o.
the CITIZENS heartily favor II ee ana

Rel, ing, therefore, on the justice
and righteousness of this cause,

TIL Ethiopian Ministries gave their entertain
ment Tuesday night to a fair house, and the
performance was good throughout. Mr.. Col
Inns, as end-man, was a success, while in his
North of Ireland delineations be showed a
good deal of genuine Irish wit, which brought
the house down repeatedly. He was called
out several times, and each time excelling his
former appearance. We should unhesitatingly
say he is q success wherever you put him.
Little Master Toohey, in his champion quin-
tessence, was extremely good, and elected

is another move in the right direction, anc
one which we are glad to see made. At the
present time this line of goods is handled by
several different firms, in connection with
other things. The furniture trade of Benton
has grown into proportions which warrant 6
separate establishment Of this kind, and suck
q one can not only keep in stock q larger anc
more complete assortment, and SO better sup
ply the needs of our toWnspeople and those
in the near vicinity, but will be enabled te
handle the stock cheaper than those buying
small lots at a time, something which the
house and its customers will each derive ben
eft from. The enterprise Of Mr.. Roosevelt
is a c~ommendable one, and we prophesy tina
he will reap the deserved pecuniary reward.

seldom below 90. Since it has chinooked

shooting scrape o., the Judith.

Parties in from the Judith country furnish
us with the particulars Of a shooting scrape
which occurred on the Goth of January. A
man called Gee. fraser, who has been trading
with the Indians in that section for a year or
two past, hired q young man named Charles
Smith, about the LIST of January. Smith and
a young half-breed left Benton with Fraser
snd his partner, GraVelin. It is reported that
fraser misused Smith, and the young half
breed also complains Of the treatment re-
eeIYed at his hands. On the morning of the
Goth the party were camped in a coulee about
