Mental Success, and Medical and
Surgical Skill.

Capacity and t4lent in this pushing
and fast age do not always insure sue,
cess; but these, when coupled with
resolute efforts, continuing energy,
suave manners, and thorough profess
sional knowledge and skill, lead TO
position, fame and success, for they
deserve them. This is illustrated in
the career Of Dr.. J. A. Jones at the
Hattie House, Ia this city. He has
devoted the best years of his life to
cultivst ng good natural abilities and
thoroughly qualifying himself to bat
tie with the worst forms of disease
that assail and PROSTATE the human
system. The result is pra 3tice most
extensive.
DR.. Jones' peculiar experience in the
treatment of old standing diseases
makes him in every way skillful
and trust worthy physician. He re-
mains here until the first Of April;
and this is the last and only opportu-
nifty the afflicted of our State will
have Of employing this eminent phys
ician's skill this eide of New Orleans
or New York.

and House of Representatives.
SENATE.
WASHINGTON, March 2.

WASHINGTON, March 2.
The credentials of Samuel Bell
Maxey, reelected Senator from Texas,
were presented by Mr.. Coke, and
were read and filed.
After disposing of the business of
no special interest, the Senate took
up the sundry civil appropriation
bill. Mr.. Beck, who reported the
bill, explained the items of increase
make by the Senate committee, pre-
missing as follows: 1.-THE amount of
the bill, as it passed the House, was
about $2O,72O,O00, and the total, as
now reported to the Senate, S22,-
$4,000, the Senate having added
$1,l19,OOO"
The aggregate of the bill was
$4,000 less than the es lmates, ana
1924, 900 in excess of the total OF
the appropriations for the current
fiscal year. Among the items of
increase made by the Senate COM
mittee are: $4,000 for a new reve-
nue. steamer for the gulf coast, $780,,
900 more to the National Board of
Health, $4,000 for the Pensacola
Navy-yard, $175,OOO for the Arctic
search exhibition, $l75,O00 for the
purchase of lands from the Greek
nation for the nse of the Seminoles,
and items for Buildings at Annapolis
and Norfolk.
In the committee of the whole the
bill was read and the amendments of
the S nate committee acted upon as
reached, the amendments having
been agreed to with few exceptions,
on which separate votes We're re-
served, and the bill was gone
through with.
Mr. Bayard, by instruction of the
finance committee, moved to amend
by adding the following as an adds
tional section: That the Secretary
of the Treasury may at any time ap~
ply the surplus money in the treas
ury, not otherwise appropriated, or
so much thereof as he may consider
proper, to the purchase or redemp-
ton of United Sta'es bonds, pro-
vided that the bonds SO purchased
or redeemed shall constitute no part
of the sinking fund, but shall be can
celled. The amendment was adopted
without debate or objection.
Mr.. Bayard, casually remarking,
in reply to Mr.. Logan and Mr.. Nc
Donald, that without this provision
the Secretary could not extend his
purchases beyond the requirements
of the sinking fund, and that it would
apply to any bonds, the payment of
which was optional with the gov
ernment.

THE FIRE FIEND.
Burning Of the Minnesota State
Capitol During Legislative
Session.

ST. PAUL, MINI, March 2.-Last
night while both houses of the legis-
lature were insession the alarm of fire
was sounded, which startled the
members from their seats. Rushing
from the chambers, they were con-
fronted with falling frebrands from
the dome of the capitol, which was
already all ablaze. The hook and
ladder company, with headquarters
near by, hurried to the scene, and
with the aid Of these ladders the
members all escaped, some of them
slightly singed. The buildings
burned rapidly to the ground, entail
ing a loss to the State of over
100000 for the structure, and the
loss of the historical and supreme
court library, much greater loss,
because they cannot be restored.
The records were all saved, however,
as they were in vaults. One of the
vaults contains over S2,000,000,
worth of State trust bonds, which
are saved. The legislature has but
two days to sit, and Market Hall is
being fitted up for their acc ommoda-
ton. No insurance.

The next amendment was that fix

To this Mr.. Conger offered his

Mr.. Springer, of Illinois, reserved

A discussion of some length fol-
lowed as to the question whether the
5th section of the pending bill,
known as the Carlisle amendment,
had the effect of repeating the law
under which national banks, seeking
to close up their business, could de-
posit lawful money and Withdraw
their bonds.
Mr.. Carlisle, the author of the sec

such effect.
Mr.. Frye insisted that at any rate

HOUSE.
w WASHINGTON, March 2.

The House met at 10 O'Clock, in
continuation of Tuesdays session.
Mr.. Tucker, of Virginia, demanded
the previous question, on the motion
to concur in Senate amendment 16 to
the funding bill. This is the "Kirk-
wood amendment, authorizing public
subscriptions for bonds and notes
provided for in the bill.
There being no quorum present,
call of the House was ordered, on
motion of Mr.. Conger, of Michigan.
125 members responded to this call,
less than quorum.
Mr.. Tucker moved to dispense
with further proceedings.
Under call, Mr. Conger demand
ed the yeas and nays, which resulted
yeas 158, nays 13; so further pro-
ceedings were dispensed with.
Mr.. Tucker then yielded to Mr..
McMahon, who reported back from
the appropriation committee the de-
fciency bill, and moved to suspend
the rules and put it upon its pass
sage.
The reading of the biz was not
completed until II o'clock.
Mr.. Hiscock, of New York, a mem
ber of the committee on appropria-
tions, criticized the bill. It was de-
ficient. The estimates for the in
ternal revenue bureau were $780,
900 in excess of the amount appro-
priated in the bill, and the appro
priation for the public printing was
100000 less than should have been
allowed. The Attorney-General had
submitted an estimate of 100000
to pay the special deputy marshals,
which mad not been allowed by the
committee. He had hoped that the
Democratic party would have settled
its debts before it went out of
power.
Mr.. McMahon replied to the
criticism upon the bill, and some
discussion followed, at the end of
which Mr.. McMahon's motion was
agreed to.
ono ioies were suspended and the
deficiency bill and the last of the
appropriation bills were passed.
The consideration of the fundino
bill was Immediately resumed. the
question being on ordering the pre-.
vious question. On motion to CON
cur in Senate amendment sixteen, a
large majority of the Republicans
refrained from voting, but enough
cast their votes to make quorum,
and the main question was ordered
yeas 134, nays 25.
The question then recurrred on
concurring in the amendment, and,
on a divisop, the Republicans res
trained from voting, and left the
House without quorum.
After further delay. the 10Th Sen
ate amendment was concurred in
yeas 146, nays 16.

A CARTER COUNTY TRAGEDY.
A PIucky woman Shoots the Man
Who njured Her.


| We have information Of tragedy
| which occurred last Sunday morning
in Carter county, about mile and
half from El;zabethton, in which
| George Colbaugh was shot by Mrs.
Sarah Smith. The facts, as We OBJ
tanned them from Capt. John P Smith,
who conversed with friends OF both
parties Monday, are about as follows:
Mrs. Smith was Sarah Amyx,
an attractive and intelligent young
lady, Of about is years, whose
home was in Hawkins county.
About the middle of November,
1880. she went to visit her sister,
wno had married Wa. Lawrence,
and lived on George Colbaugh's land,
in Carter county. While there che
became acquainted with Colbaugh,
and also with Daniel Smith, who
Were cousins. Colbaugh became
Infatuated with the young lady,
but it seems that she
PIE ferred Smith, and accordingly was
married to him about Christmas. Col
baugh was understood to have said
soon after the marriage that he didn't
intend that Sarah should live with
Smith.
Matters Went on, however, for some
time, until reports began to be circu-
lated through the community that the
lady was not very re respectable, that 81
had been connect I'd with circus, a. d
that Colbaugh had been too intimate
with her. These reports reachs d the
ears of Smith, her husband, and were
traced to Culbaugh. as their originator.
She went to see him about it. Smith
accused his wife of unfaithfulness and
intimacy with Colbaugb, but she
stoutly protested her innocence. She
fl nally left him>and went to the home
of her sister, Mrs. Lawrence, and was
making that her home.
Sunday morning. eaily, Colbaugh
passed through LsWrence's yard, when
MIS-. Smith came out and spoke to
him, denying the stories he
had circulated about her.
and demanding that he should
retract. This be refused to do, reas
serting the charges. Bat few mote
words passed, when Mrs. SIN tn drew
a pistol and fired at him. Colbaugh
was standing with his left side to-
ward her, but shifted around, and the
ball took effect on his right side,
giancing around. Dire. Alexander and
Emmet were summoned, and cut the
bali out near the backbone. They
| pronounced it not dangerous wound,
and thought he would get over it.
Mr.. Smith was arrested, aud was
arraigned before magistrate Monday
| for trial, but we did not learn the re-
suit. i is said that public opinion is
strongly in her favor in the matter,
and the impression prevails that che
was grossly elandered and wronged.
She is Of an excellent family. we'll
connected, and is said to have always
borne a high reputation.
