ton at the hands OF a Democratic Virginia
Legislature; for nowhere in this State are
there truer or better Democrats to be
found-men who have ever stood by the
party; and they now ask but one position
that of Secretary Of the Commonwealth; (;
and that position they ask for a gentleman
In every way worthy to ill it, who has
labored zealously for the party for years,
and who could ask no reward at their hands
which they would not cheer!uly give IL it

their district the Office they askI

A Prescott Matinee.

The worst court scene on record in
this country or perhaps in any other
was OF occurrence at Prescott, Arizona,
on last Saturday morning, From the
Albuquerque Journal the following
particulars are cleaned:
A water right case was being tried
before Chief Justice French, Mrs. Kel-
sey as plaintiff and p. McAteer defend
ant, when Attorney General Churchill
and District Attorney Rush got to
quarreling over the admissibllity of
certain evidence and finally cllnched.
This opened the circus. &c. Herndon
the law partner of Rush slammed the
INK bottle INTO the face of Churchill
and the defendant McAteer jumped up
Wild with excitement, whipped out a
huge dirk knife and tried to stab the
the attorney general but being prevent
ed he turned and plunged his Weapon
to the hilt into the side of James Moore
a witness seventy years of age. Wild
and crazy the man then jumped at c..
w. Beach an attorney assisting the
plaintiff and gave him a frightful cut
in the neck, narrowly missing the main
artery, the force of the blow knocking
Beach over the railing. Wheeling about
the maniac then rushed at Court Re-
porter O'Niel and had him backed up
against the wall with the bloody knife
raised above his head when Beach who
had partially recovered from the stun
ming effects of his wound, drew a re.
volver and gave McAteer a shot which
laid him out, the ball striking bis spine
and giving a death wound. Moore was
expected to die also. 1t is altogether
likely that the two attorneys who COM
menced the row have dainty little con-
tempt fines to pay.
