Hotel. The story was kept quiet, and
even the President was not informed un-
til recently that his life had been in jeop-
ardy. 1t came out, however, when he
was in New York last week to attend the
New England dinner, for it was deemed
best to change his rooms at the Fifth Av-
enue and acquaint him with the reason
which prompted this action. Besides
this precaution, two detectives were
the rooms occupied by the President,
and no one, unless well vouched for, was
allowed access to the executive. No yio-
lent demonstration was attempted by the
crank arrested on Evacuation day, but
upon searching him at police headquarters
a bowie-knife and revolver were found in
his hip-pocket. He declared that he had
| received instructions to serve Arthur as
his predecessors in the White House had
been treated, and from his actions there is
no reason to doubt that he would have at
| tempted to assassinate the executive had
| the opportunity been given him. A guest
| of the Fifth Avenue detected the scoun-
| drel skulking in the hallway, and was in
| duced to pay attention to him by being
subjected to close scrutiny as he passed
the fellow. Without giving an alarm by
which the suspected person could be efa-
! bled to escape the gentleman, after convinc-
| ing himself that the fellow was an intruder
who meant mischief 10 the President,
quietly proceeded to the Office OF the hotel
and informed the night watchman of the
result of his observations. Several male
employees accompanied the watchman to
the scene and prevailed upon the would
be assassin TO accompany them down
stairs, and he was subsequently taken to
police headquarters. All this was accom-
| plished without the President or anV oil
the other guests being aware that any
thing was transpiring, and, as stated
before, it only came out when the Presi.
dents quarters were changed during his
second visit to New York. The authority
for this statement is unquestioned, anC
the facts are detailed substantially as they
occurred

CONCLUDING A COURTSHIP.
How an Omaha Mother Entertained Her
Daughters Lover.

BALTIMORE, December ga most happy
ending to a romantic and exciting court
ship took place last evening in the parlors
of Miss Christians boarding-school, No.
9S Lafayette avenue, where Miss Gertie
Dolan, a bright-eyed young miss of seven
teen years, was married to John d. Rey-
nolds, of jefferson county, Pa. 1t appears
that the groom, when out West travelling
on business about 4 year ago, stopped in
Omaha, and while there made the ac-
quaintance of Miss Dolan. The hand
some Pennsylvania made deep and last
ing impression. Mrs. Dolan requested
Mr.. Reynolds to discontinue his attentions
and visits, but the lover persuaded his
sweetheart to meet him clandestinely.
The affectionate mother discovered this
and sent her daughter to the young
ladies' boarding-school in Baltimore
Upon Miss Dolan's arrival in this city
she hastened to write to Mr.. Rey-
nolds, who was still in Omaha. In a few
days Mr.. Reynolds was also in Baltimore,
and their clandestine meetings were re-
sumed and and preparations for an elope-
ment we've made, but Mrs. Dolan heard of
it and at once communicated with the
chief of police, ordering her daughters
arrest and return to her nome The police
did notgo so far as tlIi5, but they prevailed
upon Miss Christian to lock Miss Dolan
up in her rc0n. Reynolds, by means OF
a ladder. cJn1i inued to visit Miss Dolan,
and no less thau seven elopements were
planned and frustrated. Mrs. Dolan was
Immediately Informed of the escapades,
and desraiiing of conquering the lovers,
she yielded at length to the suggestion of
the chief OF police, and the youthful cou-
pie were allowed to marry

The Annual Convention of SCHOOL

Special to the Appeal
JACKSON, December 27.-The annual
convention of the teachers met here to-
day, in the Senate chamber, at IL o'clock
am. Present, the Rev. Walter Hillman,
p. w. Carr, secretary pro TEN. Opened
with prayer by the Rev. DIR. Galloway.
Col. w. l.. Nugent delivered an address OF
welcome. All teachers and friends of
education were declared eligible to MEM
bership. Some fifty-odd names were en-
rolled, among whom are to be found edu-
Gators of the highest rank and ability.
The first paper read was by Gen. Stephen
d. Lee; subject, Technical Education" ]"
The paper was sound, practical and able
elucidation of the subject, which was re-
viewed by the following gentlemen, some
approvingly and some taking issue on
some minor points, namely: Profs. Ed
Miller johnson, w. /. Gibson, w. S.
Webb and r. X. Jayne. This closed the
morning session. On assembling in the
afternoon the chair appointed Commit
mittee on Constitution. The next paper
read was well-prepared and logical essay
from the pen of Mrs. Z. G.. Peyton, OF
Hazelhurst, one OF the most gifted women
OF our State, and who has for some time
been before the public under the nom de
plume of ga Mississippi Woman" Her pa
per was read by Miss NJ. J. Jones, and the
subject was. "Co-Education of the Sexes
in Our Universities. She opposed such
education, and presented arguments in
support of her side difficult to answer.
Prof. c. w. Hudson then read paper on
the same subject, taking the opposite view
of the question to that taken by Mrs.
Peyton. His paper was able and his ar
guments clear, logical and exhaustive. The
convention took recess till o'clock this
evening. Ii the full programme is carried
out the convention will be in session all

VI. Paul Bert's MaIiciOusly False Rep
resentatfons.

CHICAGO, December 27.-The statement
made by NJ. Paul Bert as contained in the
Paris cable published this morning, in
which he processes to quote from the re-
port of DIR. II. j. Delmer, of the United
States Bureau of Agriculture to the effect
that diseased and dying hogs passed
through the stock-yards at Chicago daily,
and were sold cheap and shipped to Bor-
deaux and Havre has drawn out let
ter OF protest from Delmer. He declares
the statement of Nj. Bert not only per-
version OF facts, but falsehood. In his
official reports to the Commissioner of Ag-
riculture are contained all he has ever had
to offer concerning the transportation of
diseased or dead hogs, and there he simply
called attention to their transportation to
rendering tanks, entirely distinct from
packinghouses, as affording the means of
the spreading of the hog cholera prevail
in 1878 and 1879. Mr.. Delmer declares
that the rules of the Chicago stock-yards
are such as to render it utterly impossible
that dead hogs should be smuggled
into them, and should an animal
die in the yards, it is at once
delivered to the soap-grease rendering es-
adjustment outside of the yards, and can
not possibly get into the packinghouse.
DIR. Delmer says that during the last four
months he has examined fully 10000 hogs
without discovering the slightest trace OF
disease, as he certainly would if any had
existed. During the last two years very
little swine-plague has existed anywhere,
and as far as he has been able TO learn no
diseased hogs have been shipped. Nearly
all the small rendering-tanks have been
closed, his exposures five years ago having
contributed largely to that result. Delmer
declares Bert must be a true demagogue,
othcrw Use he would not resort to falsehood
to please his constituents.

HELENA, ARK.
The Negro Miles aad His Emigran
AssOciatiOn-His Record.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Record.
Special to the Appeal
HELENA, December 27.-Your Washing
ton dispatches of yesterday announce the
organization of an 'Emigrant Associa-
tion," the purpose of which is to "assist
the negroes to emigrate from the South. "
Amongst the officials appears the name OF
j. w. Niles, an infamous knave, that
would down the association" even were
its purposes laudable. Once before occa-
sion has been had to refer to Niles,
through the APPEAL, giving him nearly
a column of space. In that article it was
endeavored, and with unchallenged sue
cess, to place Mr.. Niles where he belongs,
a jointure to the hangnan's moose.
Again it is desired to call atten-
ton to him, and prevent, if pos
sible, further contagion from his
signally rotten schemes and methods.
Time and space prevent a recapitulation OF
his foul practices in this section. Suffice
it to say that any organization that ac-
knowledges him as an official, merits the
severest condemnation, and, be its Designs
what they may, should be sat down upon
with the weight OF a menagerie OF jumbos.
Niles, and from his record there is every
reason to believe, the Emigration Asso-
citation" with which he is connected, have
naught in view but the filching of money
from their less perspicuous, but more hon
est brethren. Hence, it appears that the
gullible people whom he and his col
leagues would defraud, are entitled to Il
warning from those who know the scoun-
drel, and are not to be "taken i'm by him.
The gentleman's (?) neck came near break
ing here once. Let him beware lest it be
rent in twain elsewhere.

Between Orangemen and NatiOnaIfsfs
at HarbOr Grace.
ST. JOINS, December 27.-Advices from
Harbor Grace state that an Orange pro-
cession yesterday, while passing Ships
head, was fired upon by crowd. At
first the Orangemen thought the firing was
from Powder-guns carried by their friends,
until they saw their men fall. Four men
were killed, two Orangemen and two
Roman Catholics; eight are reported NOR
tally and eighteen to twenty slightly
wounded. Head Constable Doyle is
among the wounded. There is lull in
the outbreak at Harbor Grace, but the
neighboring town of Carbonear is in q
state of the widest frenzy. Over 1000
men are parading the streets and prepar-
ing to march to Harbor Grace. Crowds
are hurrying up from the whole extent OF
the north shore Of Conception Bay to the
scene of the disturbance. All the bust
ness places are closed, and most of the
private dwellings are protected by bars
and bolts. The police dispatched from
st. Johns, and reached Harbor Grace
last night. If the riot breaks out anew
the law officers will be powerless to pro
tect life and property. 1t is rumored tha
the government has cabled to Halifax fol
troops and the war-ship. If the Carboneal
contingent marches to Harbor Grace the
result will be terrible to contemplate.

KILLED AT TRACY CITY.
Tragic Death of Samuel Jones, Form
erIy of Davidson County.


Nashville Banner: Samuel Jones, a
former resident of Davidson county, but
OF late contractor at the Tracy City coal
mines, was killed at the latter place yes-
terday in difficulty with w. f. Travis, a
guard. Travis had squad of convicts
cleaning the railroad, when Jones came
up and insisted on the men working
faster. Travis replied that he was super
intending them and did not wish anyone
to dictate to him. This caused hot words,
when Travis leveled his gun and
fired upon Jones, killing him in
ssantly. Jones attempted to draw
pistol, but Travis was too quick for
him. Mr.. Jones was a native of this
county, and his mother lives twelve miles
out on the Hillsboro turnpike. He left
here seven years ago for Tracy City,
where he engaged as guard He was in
short time promoted to deputy-warden,
which position he held until the death OF
Capt. Henry, when he was made warden
lie was young man OF sober, Industrious
habits, and soon won the esteem of his
employers, who regarded him as thor
ough business man. He had, Just few
days before his death, secured the prison
contract for six years. His death will be
regretted by numerous friends in this and
Grundy county.
