Not in Favor of Surprises.
fisherman Courier.1

Some days ago the Courier, in
taking a look over the political field,
took occasion to regret that so little
interest was being taken in the mat
ter of the gubernatorial race, and in
course of the article made use of the
following: "No man knows what
the eighteenth of July may bring
forth. 1t may bring to the front
Hubbard, Reagan or Ireland, and it
may bring some one who will be a
dead weight to the ticket, and play
thing for Wash Jones. 1t is unfor-
tunate that that Governor Roberts
refused to enter the field"
The point made is that had Cover
nor Roberts remained, or become a
candidate, the opposition to him
would have been so great that IN the
very nature of things some one of
the best men in the state for the
place would have been centered up
on and probably nominated. Where
as, as it now stands, with not
sufficient interest among the
people to secure instructed dele
egates to the state convention,
LDcT6 Is ctcIl CudAOC AOA bhO AhOoh w
jectionable nomination. We regret
ted his withdrawal for this reason
alone, and perhaps we are not to be
credited with as much innocence as
the Waco Examiner is disposed to
give us in the following:
aThis is sample of the most re-
freshing innocence we have been
treated to in many day. Let the
Courier wait until the Galveston
convention is over and then pub
lish what it tuInks about Gov
ernor Roberts refusing to ENTER
the field The good old man knows
what he is doing. He knows all the
time. The Courier will know too,
in due time"
Any man brought before the tcon
ventlon unexpectedly to the people,
will prove Objectionable, and will re-
suit to the damage of the ticket in
the elections. We look quite as deep
into the possibilities of that con-
vention as does the Examiner, and
will not be unprepared for the result
limited at by that paper.

Enterprising as our managers think
themselves, and are. they cannot yet
compete with European managers in
two respects. One is the electric lighting
of the interior of the theaters. The
other is the application of machinery TO

Germany one stage.hand does, in a few
minutes, the work upon which dozen
men here spend quarter of an hour be-
tween the acts.
Manager Fuller, formerly of Louisville,

ciple, and failed; but Mr.. Fuller has
made a complete working model and

The variety theatres of the country suf-

performers, who do just the same things
from year to year, and the receipts have
consequently fallen off, 1t is said that
next season q large number of actors
from the London music halls will be
brought over. An entire company direct
from England is to appear soon in Phila-
delphia, and Manager Haverly, now in
Europe, is reported as about to start
anew with travelling variety show on a
big scale.

A Triple Ira agedy-Terrib'e e Ending of q
 Dispute Over Horse Racing Three
 Prominent Mon Killec-One of Them
 Worth Ten Millions
 KNOXVILLE, Oct. 19.-At 1O:3O o'clock this morning shooting afray took place in this city between Major Thomas O'Connor, Gen. eral James A. Mabry, ST., and James A. Mabry, ir., in which all three were killed. The town is in a state of terrible excitement over the event. Business is partially sus
 pended and nothing else talked about. Crowds are gathered in the principal streets discussing the affair and reports of all kinds are circulated. The most reliable informa. tion that can be gathered regarding the terri
 bls affair is as follows: General Mabry and
 Major O'Connor had 8 dispute at the fair
 ground yesterday during the races, during
 which it is alleged that Mabry threatened to
 kill O'Connor on sight. This threat was con-
 rnunicated to O'Connor about 1O:3O o'clock
 this morning. Gen. Mabry was proceeding
 along Gay street when OConnor stepped out
 of the Mechanics bank just as tho general
 was passing. He (O'Connor) carried with
 him & shotgun. Raising the weapon, he
 took aim and fired on the general and Mabry
 fell dead without uttering word. About
 this time James A. Mabry, jr., who was pass iuk ucaE Dy, Aau HIS htteuGlUd hGGEaClSu
 by the tumult in the vicinity and hastened to the spot. He immediately took in the situa- tion and drawing revolver fired on OCon-
 nor. Meanwhile O'Connor, in anticipation
 of an attack from Mabry, jr., again raised his shotgun and fired. Both of these discharges
 are said by those who witnessed the scene to
 be simultaneous and when the smoke cleared away O'Connor and Mabry, jr., lay dead on the ground, both men still clutching their weapons During the excitement, the bodies of the three unfortunate were borne off on stretchers, followed by an inn mense crowd of whites and negroes.
 The Mabrys are the same parties who some time since were implicated in serious affray with the two Lusbrys, which ,esultedx in the killing of the two Lusbrys by the Mabrys. Major Thomas O'Connor was one of the wealthiest and most prominent citizens of Knoxville and was widely known among bus- mess men and in railroad circles throughout the country. He leaves estate valued at $lO, 900 OOO, all of which was made in busi- ness and speculations since the close of the war. He president of the Mechanics National bank of Knoxville, in front of which the tragedy occurred. He was member of the firm of Cherry, O'Connor < Co.,, of Nashville, and was associated with R. G.. Huston, Q large railroad contractor of Gin cinnati. He was very benevolent and last sum- mer sent the pastor of the church which he attended to Europe at his own expense. He leaves widow but no children. Mabry and Major O'Connor are said to have been conspicuous for gallantry in the confederate army, and were we'll known in Tennessee and Virginia.

 Folger's Review of the Issues.
 ALBANY, Oct. 19.-A we'll attended Repub- lican mass meeting here this evening was ad- dressed by Chauncey M. Depew. Howard Carroll and Silas B. Butcher. The principal feature was the reading of letter of regret from Folger. He eulogizes Cleveland, Dem- ocratic candidate for Governor, in all per sonal, business and official relations but the danger arises from the fact that he is Dem- ocrat bound by the traditions of that party since 1860, while Folger is Republican, al- though he started in political life as Demo- crat. Most of the letter is devoted to con- trast between the principles of the two par ties, and claims that the country would be unsafe in the hands of the Democrats. He says the Democratic vict ,ry in Ohio was a barometer of the feeling of the business community. It is estimated that on the day following the election there was a shrinkage in values of great properties of over forty millions. That shrinkage has been going on since, showing that the business interests of the country look with dread to the return of Democratic power to the control of federal legislation

SaIvfui's Return to America.

NEW YORK, Oct 19.-signor salvini ar- rived here today by the steamer Amerique. He was met by small party of friends down the bay and escorted to the city. He is somewhat stouter than he was when here two years ago. In conversation he said no reception and criticism could have been kind CT than he received in America then, bat he felt that in this his third trip he was presum- ing on that kindness. If he played in Eng fish it would be different, but it was asking English speaking people too much to come and see him so often. Hence this was his last visit and it would not be long before he would retire from the stage permanently. He was anxious to do so in his prime and wished besides to head school of dramatic art, which it is proposed to establish in Italy. Salvini's engagement here begins Oc tober 25th at he Fifth Avenue Theatre He will appear ten times in two weeks and 8 half and will return in February and give 8 first performance of King Lear.
