SCANDAL AND DEATH.
Philip B. Thompson, Member Of Con-

District, Kills Walter Davis,

HARRISBURG, kT., April 27.--Capt.
T. L. Thompson, IT,, eN-member OF Con-
eress from the Eighth Kentucky District,
Shot Walter Davis as he was stepping
from smoking ear on the Cincinnati
Southern railroad this morning. The
hall went through D8vis's head, produc-
ing instant death. The cause alleged Is
undue intimacy Of Davis with Ihomp-

the habit Of using strong intoNicantS by
using liquors some years ago, when re-
covering from an illness. When Ihom.

Cincinnati, but was TO go home the same |
night. She met Davis in the street. lie !
supplied her with liauos, and took her
| TO the st. Clair hotel ia his room. Lat
ter in the night the Waterman found her
| living in the corridor. Next morning
she was overwhelmed with shame on dis
covering her disgrace, and left the hotel.
| Miss Buckner wrote to Thompson, tell
ing him of his wife's disgrace, but said
nothing of Dayis's conduct. Where
upon Thompson refused to further rec
ognize her as his wife Last Tuesday,
on his return from Washington, MIR.
Thompson first heard in Cincinnati OF
Davis's part in his wife's disgrace. To-
day he met Davis for the first time since
his return, and killed him.
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY.
Davis friends, and he has good
many in town, say that he is innocent Of
the charge of seducing Mrs Thompson,
who was his cousin. He. told his part
ner in business, T. J! Fisher, ON Tuesday
night, that he heard Thompson was here,
and if any trouble resulted he wanted Il

In writing this screed we do not
wish to be understood as preaching
a sermon. We are simply philoso-
phising on the importance of the
day and night of our publication.
To prove that we are not sermoniz-
ing we will say that it was a great
pity that God didn't cut down the
tree which bore the forbidden fruit
before Adam and his wife ate there
of-we believe that because Noah
escaped the flood he shouldn't have
got drunk-as also that the AL
mighty should not have instituted
grape vines for the Dutch to make
wine OF, or the corn from which
the Irish could make whisky, and
still further, that Christ might
have put His time in better than
when employing it in converting
water into wine. No, we are not
sermonlzing.
We hope our point is visiblel-
Tonight will be Saturday night
the night above all others which
point to Sunday and to our ap-
proach to the world beyond to
which we are all fastening, and
the doors of which are said to new
er outward swing. Let us tonight
as one man and one woman, resolve
that if health is given US to renew
life's conflict on Monday that we
will 40 conduct ourselves during
the week that we can on next Sat
urday night receive on unpolluted
lips the kisses of those to whom we
are welded or that came to us
through wedlock.

The New Stake.

II. j. Patterson discovered July
9th vein on the n. Z. corner of
the Winters Homestake, ore very
rich in free gold was extracted.
The ore is of the same general
character as the Homestake. The
vein evidently extends over ground
of the Rip Van Winkle and into
the ground Of the old Large Hopes.
Mr.. Patterson claims, this as a
cross lode, and has made location
thereon. Mr.. Fegusson in charge
of the Winters Homestake, as the
representative of the Winters heirs,
claims the same as the Homestake
vein. Mr.. FERGUSON has ordered
the discoverers off the Homestake
surface, and is prosecuting the
work himself. We are not suf-
fciently informed to Judge of the
merits of the controversy, but can
congratulate the camp upon the
fact of the discovery, to whom so
ever it may belong. 1t promises
another great mine, without re-
ference to the portion of the new
location involved in the Home
stake surface. Mr.. Patterson's
new discovery on tho Mother Lode
westerly of the North Homestake,
we are assured is a valuable pro-
perty. A good amount of work
has been done in this find, and we
are informed that developement
will be pushed rapidly.

The Otero Case.

We are glad to note settlement
of the case honorable to the parties
and to the court. Judge Axtell
upon the proposition of the parties
in contempt, has appointed, Secre-
tary Ritch receiver of the mine in
dispute. Mr.. Ritch will work the
mine, and hold the same and its
profits until the question of title is
judicially determined. This solu-
ton of the case will satisfy
everybody except the San Pedro
Co., and its attorneys ought to
satisfy them whatever right they
have in the matter, being amply
secured by the internment of the
property in the custody of the
court. Ofjudge Ax-tell'a integrity,
probably no man in the Territory
has any doubts, or that the pecu-
mary rights of all parties are per
fectly safe in his hands.

That that North Homestake has
never been officially surveyed and
ascertained, and its surface" can
not be placed.
That the North Homestake vein
as located and described in notice
of location, has not been worked
north of the Homestake gulch suf-
ticient to determine its exact line,
and that since the location notice
processes to discovery and claims,

linear feet along the course of the
vein, and 300 feet of surface
ground on each side of the middle
Of the vein SO discovered that
since Mr.. Ferguson not knowing
where the vein is its center cannot
be assigned and hence the eastern
boundary line of the claim cannot
be defined.
That the course Of the North
Homestake vein is not parallel
with the side lines of the claim as
staked, but passes out of the claim
near the north west corner as stak-
ed, upward of 500 feet west of
the east side line as staked, as as
certained by measurement, and
that consequently the opening made
upon the Solitaire Lode is actually
10 feet east off of the proper east
boundary of the North Homestake.
That consequently it is denied
that said Solitaire" lode was
opened upon the surface of the
North Homestake mine. Claim is
made for damages in the usual ten

Mr.. Ferguson declines to make
any statement.

Communication

At the request of Mr.. Dye, at
torney for III. j. Patterson we print
the following synopsis of thepoints
in controversy between the North
Homestake mine, and Solitaire
lode made by him in the extended
notice given by hm by Mr.. Fer
guson.
That the Solitaire is a newly dis
covered lode, a cross lode Of the
Homestake lode. That tho same
was within three days after discov-
cry and location opened at a point
supposed at the time to be outside
the east side line of the North
Homestake rs claimed and staked,
but subsequently found to be with
in the same.
That under the laws of the Unit
ed States, the mineral contained
in the Solitaire lode, within the
surface OF the North HomestAke, Is
the property Of the owners of the
new location. and not of the owner
of the North Homestake. See Sec.
1886, revised statutes, U. S.
That surface ground is virtually
common property for the facilities
80 long as the mining facilities Of
the owner thereof are not impaired.
That when the owner Of a cross
lode has no surface upon which to
open and follow his vein, it would
be held that he bad q right to open
upon the property so crossed, hsv-

has done the camp q service which
it is glad to acknowledge. His
operations while they can hardly
fail to bring profit to his clients,
are both directly and indirectly Of
great benefit to the community.
Mr.. Ferguson and all other men
who invest their time, capital and
energy in pushing the camp along
to the producing point, deserve
our sympathles, and such aid and
comfort as it is in our power to
give them, and will get it.

THE INJUNCTION.

On Sunday we learned tnat
Judge Bristol had dissolved the
North Homestake injunction, and
that Mr.. Ferguson would at once
resume work. That this would be
the ultimate result was certain.
We have the utmost confidence in
the equity and impartiality of
Judge Bristol, and felt certain
that the case would 60 before him
from the hands of Mr.. Ferguson
in the best possible shape.
The allegations of the petition
ers, were such as, (undenied, as
they were at the tilne) left the
Judge no choice, but the issuance
OF the writ; and yet they were
trausparently false. So far from
suffering "irremediable damage"
by Mr.. Furgusson's operations, the
cash value of the mine was being
enhanced, by every days work
done by him, upon the lode. Nor
do we think it possible that the
petitioners were entirely deceived
on that point. The proceedings
savored Of "the same old game, A"
by which the parties have appar-
emily sought from the start to
''freeze out" the Winters interest.
Old settlers in this camp, have
too much knowledge of the original
understanding and contract be-
tween j. V. Winters, and the
other owners, to take any stock in
the justice Of the alleged claims
upon the property. Jack Winters
was honest and careless, and his
heirs are known to be poor. With
"claimS" and expenses, combined
with exasperating delays, we be-
lieve, that it was designed to get
away with the Winters interest in
a rich mine. We believe that the
Creditors" &C., have been over
paid under the original contract,
not to speak of the fact, that il
they had nothing to show but their
admitted share of the property,
and have really spent all they
claim to have spent, they have still
gotten their interests at a very
cheap rate. The Winters interest
is not friendless, and is represent
ed by ability, quite sufficient, it
appears to cope with the big guns
of The New Mexican bar. For all
of which we are devoutly glad.
Mr.. Ferguson has had the symps-
thy Of the camp in his fight, and

Is the first moment that ] am able

thanks for your kind and consid-

intensely southern city, and, in
deed all over the entire South.
They little expected that gratitude
for past favors should have a place
so thoroughly "Yanky" as that of
Maine. "Can anything good come
out of Nazareth" is as firmly be-
lieved to-day by some of our peo-
pie as it was in the time of our
blessed Lord. And hence your re-
membrance of favors that were
done to some of your comrades
nearly twenty years ago in that den
OF infamy and torture, not only re-
Dukes these people but has tended
more than anything since the war
to bring abouta least in Alabama,

spect towards the people of the
North and South will mutually cul-
tivete and cherish for each other.
For my own part [ can honestly
confess that this was my feeling
during the eleven dreary months
that miserable place. l asked no
man his creed, nationality, or poll
tics. | saw nothing there but de-
spair, suffering, and neglect, and
being a man myself naturally felt
interested in everything that con-
cerned humanity. When the
Catholic asked for my priestly min
istration he got them when the
Protestant asked for relief and as
sistance he got it, even when it
was necessary, as sometimes hap
pened, to give him my coat from
my back or my stockings from my
feet, This is the only comfort that
l now have when l look back upon
Andersonville, viz ; that IN all my
time there l treated every man as
brother, made by the same God.
redeemed by the same precious
blood, and intended for the same
glorious destiny.
You will please, then, convey to
your worthy comrades my warm
and sincere thanks for the beauti-
full testimonial of which they have
made me the recipient, and assure
them that as often as look upon it

God for their temporal and eternal
welfare.

SATURDAY NIGHT.

There are probably no two words
in the English language embracing
80 much Of what is calculated to
quicken the pulse and surcharge
the heart as the two which roof
this article. Saturday Night"
The words are indicative. Spok-
en- in any house, castle or cabin, to
any people, rich or poor, the words
convey the same meaning. They
imply rest and repose, not alone
for Saturday night, but for the day
following, the Sabbath, the day on
which God Himself rested. They
convey to intelligent minds, as also
to those uncultivated, that the
nearer they approach the end of
the week the closer they are toeing
eternity.
On no other night than Satur-
day does the wife and children
look through the glooming SO an1i-
ously for the husband and fathers
approach. Not that the table is
more bounteously spread, er the
hearts of loved ones more heavily
freiphted with affection than on
other nights, but the weeks work
is Ger, and companionship for two
nights and a day assured.
AS Saturday night implies rest,
SO Monday morning indicates la
Dor. Milton says:
God has set
Labor and rest as day and night to man
Successive.
Dryden, still more poetic, says {:
She closed her eyes in everlasting nigh"
But Saturday night is not one Of
darkness, but of light. The labor,
the care, the anxiety of the week
is over. The laborer goes to his
home with his hire in his pocket
and that home, however. humble,
10 his castle. His wife is queen,
his children princes and princesses,
and he ia king of his domestic
realm, while outside thereof he is
the peer of the noblest, thanks to
the institutions under which we
live.
Tomorrow will be Sunday. The
day is blended with Saturday night
The true significance of its mean
ing is "rest." Wheeler we are
orthodox or heterodox, elieve with
Ingersoll, or the lamented Purcell,
the day invites us to rest and ply
Sical enjoyment and ease. Upon
Sabbath morn the clothes of the
past week are changed and new
and clean ones donned. Husband,
wife, and little ones go arm in arm,
and hand in hand, to their chosen
sanctuary, where they hear the gos-
pei expounded, and return home
mentally refreshed, and feeling
kindlier toward God and fellow
man.
