The Shreveport Standard pays this

The Shreveport Standard pays this
compliment to QUO Of the Highland City
beauties: "Miss Alice Beal, beautiful
and accomplished young lady Of Baton
Rouge, sister Of Mrs. Charles Greene,
who has been spending some time in our
city as the guest Of Miss Rore Ford, left
for home Oh the Maria Louise yesterday.
We would advise the young men of
Baton Rouge to be on their guard, as a
certain young Shreveporter we know of
might drop in on them unawares, and
bring her back here to reside permanent.
tly, There is no accounting for these
Shreveport boys, especially when such
beautiful young ladies as Miss Alice is
the prize to be gained.

NASHVILLE. TENNESSEE.
Particulars of the Murder Of Depn
ty Marshal ScagravcS.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April i. Colonel
William Woodcock, internal revenue
collector to-day received particulars Of
the murder Of Deputy United States
Marshal Henry Seagravcs to Macon
county. Seagraves, accompanied by
Samuel Cox, while returning from an
official trip to Sumner county, stopped
ut house twelve miles from Lafayette
for supper. While there four men APP
pcarcd at the cabin ola negro, near the
house where Seagraves and Cox were
eating. They inquired if the two had
arrived, were answered in the attirma-
tive and fired two shots to attract Sea-
graves and Cox to the cabin The shots
had the desired effect, the revenue men
and their host Fastening towards the
spot. When near the cabin, Seagraves
was shot in the centre of the breast and
through the right wrist, the wounds
causing instant death. Cox lied. and
his host returned to the house After
Seagrayes fell, the assassintold the ne
gro to 90 to Rutherford's house aud say
that if ScagraveS and Cox would send
them att the papers and money they had
with them they would not modest them
further, The negro took the lantern and
started TO the house, but had only gone
Il short distance when he came upon the
! body Of Scagraycs. He. returned to thc
men and informed them of what he had
seen, They told him to return and bring
the man to them. This the negro refus-
ed to do, The men then tried to get
him to go ont aud drag the body to the
cabin by the heels, but again he refused.
The men then went out to where the
body was lying, and after rObbing it OF
a watch, pistol and money left the neigh,
borhood. The negro does not know who
the men were, but thinks they were
from Summer county, and that they had
been following SeagraVes and Cox all
day, The body of Seagraves remained
where it fell until next day, when the
coroner of LAFAYETTE, who had been in.
formed, held an inquest, The body was
removed to Lafayette, where the family
of the deceased resides.
A deputy marshal was murdered neal
the same spot several years ago.
When the assassins were robbing the
body of Seagraves they kept up q
continuous yelling, and laughed and
sang during the entire proceedings.

the men TO keep the boy in their charge
until some provision could be made fol
his support, but they were relentless.
and announced then determination OF
abandoning hun upon the streets in

went before Justice Bnrd and had q

Day by day, her face grew fairer
And ere D week her smiles were rarer
Her eyes grew wistful, wild and dark
Devoid ever, of Hopes faintest spark.
The winds grew chill, and the roseleaves fell
As the treetops rang funeral knell
The watcher grew tired, and prayed for rest
No letter still from him she loved best
A misty day. All the earth seemed sad
But my step was light my heart was glad;
"a letter Mt last, thank God !" said,
And glanced Mt It, as onward sped
saw her name, and started back,
For the letter was edged In deepest black,
After long waiting, how will she bear
Tidings, from mother in despair.
As neared the door, my heart grew faint,
Words cannot deepest sorrow paint
As was silent, could not say
Yes ah yes there Is q letter today.
The face was strange, met ut the door
And the plying glance told me more
Than the too late" heard ah, too late
Her soul il at rest beyond Eden's gate
