Jordan, Scott county Advocate: The socia
circles of our neighboring city of Chaska are
all torn up with the most startling scandal
that has ever generated in that highly mora
burg. Last Wednesday the grand jury, in
session in Carver county, found an indict-
ment against DIR. Lewis, the well known
physician, under charge of rape upon the
person of Mrs. John Sandberg, wife of John
Sandberg of San Francisco township, and
the announcement fell like a clap of thun-
der from clear sky. The circumstances
are briefly, that Mrs. Sandberg was patient
OF the doctors during June last, and Sand
berg alleges that while treating his wife
Lewis committed the crime with which he
is charged. Sandberg does not say why he
let the matter rest for SO long time without
entering complaint against the doctor.
Many of the leading citizens of Chaska dis
credit the story, and some even hint that
personal enmity existing between Lewis and
certain members of the grand jury had some
thing to do with the Indictment being found.
But be the case as it may, it will be tried
before Judge Mcdonald next Tuesday, and
the truth will doubtless be sifted out of il.

At the late meeting of the trustees OF
the fund left by George Peabody for
education in the south, clear statement
was made of Mr.. Peabodv's purpose in
establishing it. He did not intend to
establish charity for the poor, nor to
give pro rata assistance to all schools
making application for 1T. He perceived
the needs of the south and established a
fund for operations there as an aid to a
grand scheme of universal education.
Administered in accordance with this
purpose, the fund is destined to accom-
Plish vast work, but applied for the
permanent support of schools, rather
than for the encouragement of self-sup-
porting schools, it is wholly inadequate.
The total disbursement made by the
trustees during the year ending with
last month were sS0,3334, Al. The largest
amount ST. 800 was expended in Texas
The Peabody fund has already done a
vast amount of good at the south, in aid
ing to establish self-supporting schools.

Bishop Walsh of London, Ont, who ha
ust returned from Ireland, Sunday, in st.
Peters cathedral, referred to the Irish ques-
ton. He condemned in scathing terms ag-

that there is less crime in Ireland proper

While opposing the disintegration of the
empire, the bishop favored home rule for
Ireland similar to that enjoyed by Canada.

The New York Times discusses at
length the important questions whether
chickens or watermelons exercise the
stronger fascination upon the colored
mind. The matter, is pretty evenly
balanced but the Times concludes there
is some slight reason to believe that the
colored man prefers chickens to water
melons, and that ifthe latter were locked
up and the former left out over night he
would rarely, if ever, break into the
Watermelon-house.

The gradual disuse of iron rails is
shown by the fact that in the last few
months this country has entirely ceased
to import them from Great Britain,
and that in the eight months ending

per cent. The steel rail exports, how
ever, in the same length of time in

A TRIPLE TRAGEDY.

A Tragedy at Knoxville, Tenn, Re-
suits in the Death OF Three Prom
inent Citizens, One the Wealthiest
in the State.
The most terrible encounter known in the
annals of homicide occurred at 10 o'clock on
Gay street. at Knoxville, Tenn. Gen.
Joseph A. Mahry, ST.. Joseph A. Mabry, Jr.,
and Maj. Thomas O'Conner all fell in the
conflict, with other parties wounded. The
difficulty grew out ofan old grudge. Yester-
day at the races Gen. Mabry approached
Maj. O'Connor with threats and hands on
his arms, in the amphitheater, at which
O'Connor replied that it was no time or
place for an ARRAY, and that he was unnamed.
This morning, the rumor goes, Gen. Mabry
sent O'Connor word that he would kill him
on sight. At 10 o'clock Gen. Mabry passed
down Gay street on the opposite side of the
street from the Mechanics bank, of which
OConnof was resident OConnor stepped
from the bank to the middle ofthe pavement
and fired two sh OTIS across the street in rapid
succession, both shots taking effect, aud Gen.
Mabry falling dead. O'Connor turned and
seized another gun as Joseph Mabry, Jr., who
was rapidly coming down the street, fire
upon him with pistols in both hands, at
distance of thirty yards. The ball passed
through O'Connor's heart, but nearly sim
ultaneonsly he fire on Mabry, Jr, and both
fell dead. Gen. Mabry and his son were
acquitted only few days ago of the murder
of Moss Lusby and Don Lrsby, father and
son, whom they killed some weeks ago.
Will Mabry was killed by Don Lusby last
Christmas. M j. O'Connor was the wealthiest
man in the state. and made most favorable
impression on all who met him. He was
keen-sighted business man, having accumu-
lated great wealth during the war, estimated
at 81 900, 600, and at the same time was lavish
IN helpful deeds to deserving persons and
institutions. He was noted for his interest
in yeung men and for his liberal assistan ce
in charities.
