A NIurderous Congressman-He Shoots Down the Man Who Debauched Ills Wife.
 CINCINNATI, April 27.-A terrible tragedy
 occurred this morning on train on the Gin
 cinnati Southern railroad at Harrodsburg,
 Ky, Junction. Congressman Phil. D. Thomp-
 son, jr., of Kentucky, and Walker Davis, a
 grocer of the same place, met on train at the
 junction. Thompson espied Davis in the car.
 He immediately approached him and 8 scufie
 ensued. Davis started for the door and go- ing out was about to step of the car when Thompson pulled @ large re-
 volver and firing through the window struck Davis in the back of the head The ball penetrated the skull and passed out of the forehead over the right temple. Da- wis fell dead. Thompson pocketed his re- volver and at once started for home No policemen were around, and no one made any attempt to delay Thompson. An eye witness of the tragedy stated that when the scuffie ensued Thompson pulled his revolver and shouted, 'tNow, Cd d-n you, you take my wife to Cincinnati again." and then fired the fatal shot. It is alleged that Thompson's cause for the bloody deed was that Davis about two weeks ago had taken Mrs. Thompson to this city and caused her ruin. Thompsons wife is beautiful woman but since his congress ional career she has developed an inborn ap- petite for liquor and morphine. She accom- panied her husband to Washington in No vember last. He left her with her aunt to return in the evening train to Harrodsburg. Davis registered under an as- tuned name at the Palace Hotel on the even ing that Thompson left for Washington and induced Mrs. Thompson to remain to go to the theatre. Plying her with drink he re- turned to the hotel, took her to his room and debauched her.
 LATER-Thompson returned to Harrods- burg, surrendered himself to the court and was held in $5, 900 to answer an indictment. Walter Davis was the youngest son of Colonel Robert M. Davis. He was regarded as an upright, high toned, honor able man. The community is astonished, shocked and grieved at the facts now made public, which have been allowed to shoulder out of regard to both Thompson's and Davis families

Origin of the Pearl

A pearl merchant was asked whether a pearl is a disease Of the oyster, as a well worn moral metaphor says. "Not exactly" he replied, cor at least lt l- now beheved, though there Is no cer- talnty about 1t, that B small grain O. sand gets into the oyster, which renders 1t uneasy until It has encysted It and covered 1t with a smooth dep sit-that is the pearl. Frequently is takes thl- formation into its flesh, and the pearl ls found in mashing and rubbing the oys ter between the fingers. Yes, there have been efforts tO make oysters produce pearls. Little white beads have been put into the shell ol the hyil z oyster, and grains of sand but l have never seen a pearl that was produced iu that way, nor have I met anybody who possessed one. Efforts have been made Co cultivate tle pearl oyster, but Co form valuable pearls the oyster must grow Co a large -lZe some 10 or lj inches by I cr J-and Tor this at least eight or ten feet or water are needed. Accurate breeding at such depth IS almost impossible, and, 1T tO ersbly successful, wOuld hardly pay Tor the apparatus used. IL IS indeed ssld that pearls are artiiicialiy cultivated ID Ceylon. but I doubt II" I- has been a pet antiquarian theory oi mine hat the .lsle of Aval. in the Persian gull, fam ous for it's pearls, was tue source Of that mythical "Isle of Avalon, or western paradise.

Mir. Jesse Gilmore. a prominent and well known citizen of Albuquerque, who has just returnt q from au extended tour of northern Arizona iE company with certain parties from the east, for the purpose of investing n western lands, has a good word Go say for Arizona The party travelled from WInCate tO the wesern border Cf Arizona by wagon, going through on a line, about thirty miles south of the railroad. Mr. Gil more says he was surprised at finding 90 fine a country. The general impress sion ID the public mind is that Arizona is a vast arid waste, and that while DOT tiOns Of the country are 1t for grazing. tbe most of it IS wOrthl ss, but be says they found great deal ~ just as fine country for agri ,ultural purposes as b. ever saw anywhere, with good grazing lands, good timber and plenty Cf good water. A very large portion O. the country traversed. he says. could be readily irrigated bu' he found that good crops were raised wihOu; Irriga ion. In tho vicinity of St. Johns, ia Arizona, they measured corn stalks that were twelv. feet high. with two, three and four lar-. ears to the stalk and saw numerous good wheat fields that had yielded as high as fifty bushels 10 the acre. He was especially surprised, and SO were al the members of the party a' the iarg numbers of streams and springs en- cnuntered; that portion of Arizona through which they travelled IS fully as well watered as many portions Cf tbt eastern States, and it IS Mir. GfIlm0rr'= opinion that as soon as the merits of tine country become known. there will be a large influx of settlers there tO take uu homesteads. Indeed a considerable number of people are already g ing in, and the country IS rapiuly settling up. Journal

X Bit Of Rosuery.

An ingenious swiDdle, and one which Ias been worked to great extent has leen practiced on unsuspecuug trade Je. pie, druggists and others il Balb- more. The latest three transactions look place about dusk Thursday even ug, Oct. lS and the victims were all within a short distance of Gacu utbsr. About the time mentioned, a we'll dressed young man, attended by an eu- -acing-lOOking young lady, drove up m
 -0ut of @ well-knOwn drug store iu North Baltimore. He did not airht, lut called loudly for the proruetor of The store, who went out Co see what was wanted.
 Then the genteel young man, on a burned and breathless way, explained
 hat be vas the son of wcli-Eulwu coal dealer, with whom the dru E'st vu7 1l very intimate terms. The lady il ttc .urrIage was his wife, and they were on ,belr way to an entertainment. when he suddenly discovered that he dIIn't have a cent of money. Would the druggist ziudly loan him SlO as he was Iu too great hurry to go all the way back home for some. The bOldness oi the re- quest and the appearance of tbe young nan were sufficient, and the druggist vent into the store took a Sl0 from the irawer, returned to the carriage HnG handed the man the money.
 After a few hurried thanks the vehicle was driven off, It stopped in front oi a grocery store not more than block away. The young man went through the same performance and obtained the money asked for. Then the couple drove to a drug store near the bound lrv, and by the same operation. except that the young man represented humseh as the son of prominent manufactured. and the lady as his sister and Che Sl0 vas obtained. Other places were sImi- .arly visited, one merchant lo5Ing S2l and 1t IS thought that the couple left Baltimore with several hundred dollars obtained from the storekeepers.-EairI- more Suu

,cienee ana the Lo,e of Mn.

lt has been urged that science pre-
 vents a man from taking the sam8 sort 1f pleasure in nature as be wolll do without 1t. Wordsworth was very fond sf saving this and of deuOuncIug gener- ally the scientific position. But the req son of that was that Wordsworth knew nothing about science. The result was that there is no other instance of SO great a poet leaving off writing great poems SO early in his career. All his finest poems were written iu his eI-iy
 life, and the reason Is that he went incoming about the mountains by him self. and did not get any new thoughts. Tn contrast to him Goethe stands out as a man great in both sclenc5 and poetry, and IS a typical example of the way in whIch they rest on one another When evpr it was suggested that science is Op- posed to love of nature, the speaker always thought of the greatest man or science of modern times, Mir. Darwin
 whose books are, apart from their scleu- tifc value, quite delightful m theIr its- rlrv style. No one, for instance, could read his Voyage m @ Beagle without seeing that Darwin's love of science was only a part of his love of nature. There rs. indeed, no conflict between tbc two, and a man cannot strengthcl the enc side of his nature without at the same tlrne contributing to- strengthen t-e other. Indeed, the reason why sD many of our living poets are inferior Co those who wrote at the beginning of thls cen- tury, or to those of an earlier generation ,.il, Is just that they have not had the pluck to look science in the lace, but have only taken passing and siteway glance at it.-Popular Science Monthly.
