KILLED bY A Rival LOVER
a Romance of the War That Turns out rC
lie q murder

The sequel of the fatal love affair OF q
federal prisoner named Capt. Raphael
Livingston, who was q prisoner in one of
the Confederate prisons in Salisbury n.
e., during the war, has just come to light.
During the last year of the war Livingston,
through the aid of pretty girl, man
aged to effect his escape. He was
giyon shelter by his fair friend and
remained ia his hiding place for a
day aud night. Fearing capture by the
confederate prison authorities, the escaped
soldier made his way on foot through the
mountains In the western part of the state.
After many trials and much suffering he
reached Wilkes county, one of the remote
counties of that section. Then he was
lucky enough to meet Miss Rose Austin,
who interested herself in him and assist
cd him in eluding the confederate officers
in her neighborhood. The handsome
young captain made n deep impression
upon Miss Austin, and q mutual under
standing and an engagement of marriage
was the result. Miss Austin managed to
render such assistance to her lover that he
got through the Southern lines and made
his way to his home in New York. In
1867, two years after the close of the war,
Livingston returned to Wilkes county to
claim his bride. During the intervening
years Charles Bird, young farmer in the
neighborhood and an old admirer of Miss
Austin, had come between them and
gained the girls affections. Soon after
the young captains temperance in
Wilkes, no one day suddenly disappeared
without leaving any clue to his where.

What Can be Done.

Mr.. Eaton, of Connecticut, is re-
ported to have spoken to Mr.. Morrison,
as the representative of himself and
Others who believe In reform in the
tariff, but not In the Morrison bill, and
to have offered to arrange tariff bill
which could be passed but Morrison
declared that he would stand or fall in
the measure he had introduced.
This was quite natural feeling on Mr.
Morrison's part. He does not like to be-
lieve that his bill is not good. lie prob
ably knows, however, that 1t cannot be
passed, and il he was as wise as he should
be, he would seek to modify it 80 as to
make it acceptable to the party with
which he acts. 1t can oe done. A measure
can he framed, aimed at the reduction
of the tariff, which would be entitled to
a solid Democratic support and which
We believe would therefore receive it.
Mr.. Eaton is the man to frame such d
measure, since he does not stand with
any Of the extreme opinions. He is
in favor of a tariff reform
which shall begin at the bottom, at the
free list, and opposed to the indIscrlmi
nate horizontal reduction OF the Morri
son bill. This bill is also objection
able because It will be impossible 10
execute 1t, owing to its failure to fix the
duties 1t prescribes, making these rela
tive to the Morrill, bill, with certain res
ervations and exceptions that will maxi
its construction work of great diff
Guilty.
If Mr. Morrison will postpone til,
consideration of his measure until afteI
the presidential election he may con
clude when he again takes 1t up that /
. should b. reformed. 1t will be a mucl
better time then for such work ther
now now, when with the presidential
contest impending the members of Con
gress can hardly consider exciting polit.
ical topics with calm deliberation.

Proper Appropriations.

The House Of Representatives is In o
state of upheaval over the public build
ing bills which are being rapidly pre-.
sented by the committee that has had
them under consideration, through Its
chairman, who rejoices In the name o'
Stockslager. The committee has given
favorable ear to the petitions OF The
numerous communities that desire
public buildings, and the House to which
1t reports the bills, shows majority IL
favor of their passage. The mi
nority, however, is shocked at The
extravaganza and at the combina'
tion apparent among the congressman
wanting buildings to vote for each
others bills. Mr.. Phil. Thompson, OF
Kentucky. Is one Of the shocked con-
gresham. He does not want puolic
building in his district. and THINKS that
the four millions of dollars asked for
by other sections should not be given.
A few days ago, however, Mr.. Thomp.
son voted to give or lend some sixty or
seventy millions to the whisky men, who
are important people In his district
Evidently Mr.. Thompson is rather a
spigot than bung saver. Mr.. Holman,
or Indiana, who has been accused,
by liberal minded fellows Of the
Thompson stamp, Of being cheese
pairing economist, seems to think
there is good reason for appropria-
ting the public moneys to public
buildings. And we have it as our own
decided opinion that the public moneys
might bt much worse spent. II we can
afford public buildings we should have
them. The question as to the propriety
of their erection was closed long when
they began to be scattered over the coun
try. If one town should have them, why
should not all others OF like size Simon
Cameron, ten years or so ago, got an ap
preparation for public building at Har
risburg, beseeching his fellow members
of the Senate to give this u his ''ewe
lamb" Every other member OF
Congress is as much entitled to
have a eve lamb as Simon was.
Lancaster is as much entitled to a
public building as Harrisburg was. Mr..
Smith has obtained the recommendation
for one and his constituents do not hold
this act against him in his canvass for
denomination nor will we urge 1t
against him in his canvass for re election
We are unanimously in this county fol
q public building in Lancaster, ant
the little Phil Thompsons in Congress
may as we'll understand that every tow
in the country Of twenty-five thousanI
population wants and intends to have
public building, because other towns c
their size have them and they won't fin
fault with their representatives for con
bining with those of other towns, to g
what they have just right to but wi
commend them for it. OF course this
log rolling, but it is proper log rolling
when representatives promise the
united support to proper sort Of bill
they are doing what they ought to do.
