The New Orleans States, of Satur

T%alliaferro, of Pulaski, in which he
said:
"Isham G. Harris, 1 think, is the
shrewdest political manipulation Ten
nessee has had since the days OF
Andrew johnson. Howell i. Jack
son, lately elected Senator, is a saga
cious politician himself, and a nan of
marked ability. Colonel A. S. Colyar
| consider the ablest man in the State.
He is, politically speaking, another
Ben Hill, though as a leader, | would
be cautious about following him.
Thomas 0'Connor is a surer leader,
but he has not the ability of Colyar.
Governor Alvin Hawkins is a man of
fair average ability. That is as much
as can be said Of him. Mr.. Wright,
the Democratic nominee for Governor
in the last election, is a brilliant gen
tleman, but lacks depth. Mr.. Wilson,
the low tax nominee for Governor.
has neither brilliancy nor capacity.
and is a fair sample of a demagogue in
politics"

NEW YORK, February 27.--In the
village Of New Utrecht, about midway
between Brooklyn and Coney Island,
George Barry Wall, a young lawyer,
whose Office is in Wall street, last
summer rented a handsome summer
residence, and with his young wife
lived quietly. To outsiders they seemed
devoted to each other. On Sunday
last Jane Goodenough, servant em-
ployed by the Walls, called D. w.
Deboise, sexton ofthe Dutch Reformed
church, out of church, and said that
Mr.. Wall was shot and that he must
have a doctor. The Sexton and one
or two ladies of the congregation went
with the girl to MI. Walls house, and
found him in a bedroom onthe second
story, lying on the floor
with his head propped up
with books, and his wife kneeling on
the floor beside him holding her finger
to a wound in the side Of his neck.
Blood was spattered over everything,
and was smeared over Mrs. Wallis
hands and clothing. When Mrs. Wall
removed her finger from the wound,
blood spurted in a stream. On the
floor by the side of the wounded man
was a pistol, also covered with bl
When the strangers entered the room
Mrs. Wall cried out. You must bring
a doctor; he is getting faint and | have
been holding my finger here for twenty
minutes. Oh, my husband, my poor
husband. 1t was an accident; it was
an accident" Doctors were summoned
and found that the ball had lodged in
the vertebr@, producing paralysis OF
the arms and legs. Wall finally said
Is was all accident" Mrs. Wall told
the police that her husband had been
in the habit o~fkeeping a loaded revol
yer on the table near his bed. and that
that morning he had neglected to re.
move it. They had started to take the
train for New York, but missing il
went back to the house. They entered
the bedroom, and Mrs. Wall remarked
This is no place to keep a revolver
and picking it up intended to place II

taken in the matter Later on, state
ments Of servants and the gossip of tn,
neighborhood induced a Justice t
place a watch on Mrs. Wall. ThiI
afternoon at 5 o'clock the doctors wer,
hastily summoned to relieve Mrs
Wall of poison which she had swal
lowed. They found her lying upon
sofa calling for milk. Antidotes wer,
applied, and her stomach was relieved
This evening it was decided to remov,
Mr.. Wall to the city. but it was de
cided before doing so to have his ante
norton statement. 1t was of such
nature that it was decided to lock VI
Mrs. Wall in the town hall. Mrs
Wall is a very prepossessing younI
