The FOaLs at lTid,rnlL.

What was feared is beginning to be re-
allied at Midway, as the result of the re-
cent sickness with which nearly all the
brood mares have been afflicted, fine
colt to Blackwood, Jr., also several days
ahead of its time, which is alarnlingly
weak, and though it is being most care
fully watched and cared for, there are fears
it will not survive. Last year the stock of
Judge Hays, of Muscatine, Iowa, was very
similarly afflicted as the Midway stock
have been this winter, though earlier in
the season, and the result was that many
of the brood mares slipped their foals or
they died soon after foaling,
and from the experience
afflicted, the slipping or death of their
foals. The first foal of the season, a black
FLY with star, by Blackwood, Jr., out of
the gray mare Lady Missler, foaled the
18th, though large and we'll formed and
apparently all right, died three days later.
This foal came some two weeks ahead of
time, undoubtedly due to the sickness of
the mare as was also the death of her colt.
On Friday night last Corinne Thomas, one
of the most seriously i'll of all the sick,
dropped and for her a similar result
is feared.

ADJUSTMENTS.
THE Planters WIFE,"

The Planters Wife was presented at
Leubries Theater last night for the first
time in Memphis and was well received.
The play is one of real merit, the charac-
ters all well drawn, and the plot deep
enough to rivet the attention. The inter
est in the drama from the beginning of the
second act is absorbing: and at times there
is much i'll the play that is ludicrous and
a little real humor, but the situations
meant to be funniest are of too coarse and
absurd a nature to be enjoyed by one who
can see and appreciate the real beauties of
the piece. Miss Emily Rigl appeared as
Edith Gray" the planters wife. She en-
tered into the part seemingly with her
whole being, and invested it with depth
of feeling of which one would hardly
have believed her capable. In the early
scenes of the play where the
portrayal OF the fear OF discovery, mingled
with love for her husband, is necessary, she
appears to best advantage, doing it so well
that it seems as if her eye kindles from
one feeling while her cheek blanches from
the other, almost at the same instant. Mr..
Harry Lacy as "Col. Albert Graham" the
Southern planter, is finished actor, and
in his hands the part is well cared for. He
has 4 natural ease and grace of manner, a
naturalness of acting that at once prepos-
sesses one in his favor. Miss Ida Glenn
as "Angie Gordon" ''too young to have
beaux," was yet old enough to captivate
all who saw and heard her. She has ex-
cellent taste, bright, expressive, face, and
altogether her conception of the part is an
exceedingly happy one. Miss Kate Haw
thorne gave to "Dora Graham" all the
charm that so barren part is capable of,
and "Simeon Since" was as insipid as
could have been desired. Mr.. Ralph Del
mara ,,lavaJ tha villain GtIIorr,- I i,-;po
stone" very skilfully. 1t could hardly
have been better done. If the author of
The Planters WIFE meant "Arthur Blake"
to be stick, Mr.. Frank Burbeck fills the
measure. The play will he repeated to-
night and tomorrow night.

FUNERAL OF DIR. SIMS.
The Great Healer Laid Away. He
Mished. without Calculation.

Occasional Correspondence of the Appeal
New YORK, November l6.-I have just
returned from the funeral of Dr. James
Marion Sims, the great surgeon, physician
and humanitarian. 1t. was attended by
simple ceremonies as he himself would
have ordered it. The coffin was OF ma
hogany, with silver handles and plate
bearing his name and age. There
were no pall-bearers, and although
the family, according to the doc
tors often-expressed wishes, desired that
there should be no flowers, several crosses
were sent by the more daring of the
friends and admirers of the great man, the
beloved physician. Had it been permit
ted, i doubt if the church itself-the
Madison Square Presbyterian-could have
held all that would have been sent. The
congregation embraced all classes, from
the leading doctors of the city
and the patients who profited by
the great mans skill, to the nurses
who had learned to love him as
one above ordinary mortals. The music
was subdued, tender and touching, and the
sermon, or rather commendatory sketch of
the doctor, was as exquisite and perfect
as any similar effort l ever heard. 1t was
delivered by the Rev. DR.. Charles II.
Parkhurst, pastor of the church. Like the
great man himself, it was characterized by
utter simplicity. There was no straining
after eloquence or effect Every word
was an epitome and reached the
heart of the mourners. The analy-
sis by DIR. Parkhurst of the
character and purpose in life of the de-
ceased evidenced perfect and intimate
knowledge of the dead man. He said the
doctor had often told him that were he a
preacher, he would preach one thing only
Christ crucified. He did not believe in
divisions, nor sects, had not particle of
cant, not trace of it, and was conscien-
tious in thinking he was doing the duty it
had pleased the Creator to lay upon him.
There were not many dry eyes
in the church during the service and
many found it difficult to keep back the
sobs OF a tender and reverent grief DR..
Harry Sims escorted his sister Florence
and his brother-in-law, Mr.. McGregor, an
other member of the family. These were
all of his immediate relatives who follow
ed the remains of DIR. Sims to the tomb.
The broken-hearted, widowed mother was
not present. She was at home with her
grlei and her memories. J. f. X.

FOUND DEAD IN BED.
Sudden Death of Charles j. Phillips. AT
His Residemce On Vance Street

Mr.. Charles j. Phillips died at his resi-
dence, 45S Vance street, at 10 o'clock Sun
day night, under such circumstances as to
cause a rumor of suicide on the streets
yesterday. Some color was given to the
rumor by the fact that another rumor of
like nature prevailed last July and that
deceased was said to have been un-
happy in his domestic relations for some
time prior toz his death, his wife having
returned to her kindred at Florence, Ala.
while his children-two daughters and two
sons-were also living with relatives. The
report was investigated by an APPEAL re-
porter, as thoroughly as it could be done,
and discovered to be without truth No
inquest was held, the physician asserting
positively that death was caused by con-
gestion.
Mr.. Phillips had not been in very good
health for some time. Last Sunday even
ing he complained OF being unwell and
the servant insisted upon calling in the
nelghbors. lie said it was unnecessary
and took glass of milk, hoping that he
would go to sleep and get up all right the
next morning. The girl gave him the milk
and left him. A little before 10 O'Clock
she went into the room again to attend to
his wants, and found him lying dead, as
she thought, upon the bed. Two or three
of the neighbors were called in, and a
messenger was sent for physician, every
means OF resuscitation that could be
thought of being taken in the meantime
When DIR. Overall arrived, which was
within very few moments, slight pulsa-
ton could be detected, but death occurred
short time afterward Dr. Overall
made a careful examination, and finally
concluded that death was caused from
congestion. Mr.. Phillips was at one time
in the employ OF S. NJ Gates & Co, and
later partner of MIR. John s. Toof in the
general merchandise business. This part
nership was dissolved some ten years
since. He was for many years regarded
as one of the best business men in the
city, was always popular, and had large
number OF warm personal friends. At
the time OF his death he owned an inter
est in his homestead, and leaves besides
this policy of 5000 on his life The re-
mains were inferred in Elmwood Cemetery
yesterday morning.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
The "Mercer Colony Case Decided in
Favor Of the State of Texas.

WASHINGTON, November ia decision
was rendered by the Supreme Court of the
United States to-day in the important
"Mercer Colony" land case of William c..
Walsh, Commissioner-Genera of the
Land Office of the State of Texas, against
William Preston. This was the suit orig
inally brought by Preston upon an al
legged contract with the republic of Texas
and one Charles 7. Mercer, by which the
latter agreed to bring into Texas a large
number OF immigrant families, and settle
them upon unoccupied public lands, and
the republic of Texas agreed to give Mercer
and his associates by way of compensa-
ton for this, $40 acres of land for every
family thus brought within IFS limits. The
court holds that, inasmuch as there is no
proof that Mercer ever brought enough
settlers to Texas to constitute even the
shadow OF a compliance ON his part with
the terms of this contract, the State of
Texas is released from all obligations which
the republic of Texas may have assumed
by virtue of such contract, and that the
complainant has no valid claim to equita-
bic relief. The judgment of the United
States Circuit Court is reversed, and this
case remanded with directions to dismiss
the bill. Opinion by Justice Miller. JUS
tice Harlan dissenting.
The Judgment of the Supreme Court of
Louisiana is affirmed, with costs, in the
suit of Folsom Bros. to compel the author
tiles of New Orleans to provide for the
payment of two judgments recovered by
the former against the city as indemnifica-
ton for damage done to their property by
the mob in 1878. The decision of the
court below was adverse to Folsom.
The court also decided that the Ala
bama and Florida Railroad Company,
which, through successive transfers, has
come into the hands of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company, is liable to
State taxation, and its present owners can
not claim immunity.
