the bonds issued in aid of the con-

A fatal ARRAY occurred in the United

A number Of prisoners were taken
from Jail to that office, which adjolnS
the courtroom. All were ushered into
the courtroom except Edward O'Neal,
who was left in the Office with Bailiif
Day. The prisoner was seated near
a table in the centre of the room. In
drawer next to him was a Al
calibre pistol. As Day turned
after showing the other prisoners
out. he was met by O'Neal, who had in
the mean time taken the pistol from the
drawer. Days first intimatlon of dan
ger was feeling handful of pepper
thrown into his eyes. As they closed
with pain he caught glimpse of the
pistol-barrel levelled at his head. In
stinctiyely he caught it with his right

it was discharged the bullet just
grazed his hip. Still holding
his grasp, though in an agony
of pain, he bore O'Neal back
ward; simultaneously wrenched the
pistol from his hand, and, pointing 1t
toward his antagonist, whom he could
no longer see, he fred, shooting O'Neal
through the body. The bullet entered
the lower part Of both lungs, bringing
him to the floor. The whole thing was
done in less time than it takes to tell it.
Instantly all was confusion in the court
room. Doctors were called who dressed
O'Neal's wound, which they pronounced
necessarily fatal. The wounded man is
twenty-eight years Of age; was origi-
nally from Detroit 4; was said latterly to
have been q member Of a counterfeiting
gang, and was under indictment for
passing counterfeit money.

Silver and the Democrats.

The Atlanta Constitution, a bi-
metallist of the most decided convic-
tons, comments as follows upon the
silver feature Of President CLEvE-
LANDS message:
"Our views on this subject are well
understood. We have urged them re-
peatedly through these columns. These
views have not changed. But Mr..
Cleveland has proved a wise, consist
emit. and successful leader. He wrought
victory out of defeat in 1884, and we are
inclined tobelieve promises more surely
than any other man surer and broader
victory in 1883. While many ofhis party
may disagree with his views on silver
coinage, as indeed we do, we doubtif fac
tious opposition should be made to the
carrying out Of policy which, while
We oppose it, has much to commend it.
and has the support Of the majority Of
the wisest Democratic leaders. We
shall offer no captious objections if his
views prevail. There is not enough in
the silver issue to justify division OF
the Democratic party, which carries the
covenant Of honest and non-sectional
and economical government for this
country-not even enough to justify q
serious ENHANCEMENT between the party
and the man who led it from quarter
Of = century Of defeat into undisputed
national victory"

Payment or Professional Jokers.

The suit of Benjamin Il. Valentine,
managing editor of Teras Siftings,
against Henry G. Bunner, editor of
Puck, was decided yesterday by YER
dict of the jury in his favor for
1857 &c. The case was a peculiar
one. Mr.. Valentine had been on terms
of great personal intimacy with Bun
ner for the many years that they had
worked side by side in the Office of Puck.
Valentine was connected with the pa
per from the time Of its inception, and
Bunner joined it shortly after. They
began by working for nominal salaries,
but were assured that in case the paper
became success they would be reward
ed with an interest in it. Every once
in while one Of them would go to Mr..
Adolph Schwartzmann, the business
manager and one Of the proprietors,
who would renew his promises and
generally make some small increase in
their salary, but never to any satisfacto-
ry extent.
Neither Of the humorists got along
very well with Mr.. Schwartzmann.
Bunner was barely on speaking terms
with him, and Valentine was not even
so friendly as that, and never spoke to
him unless obliged to do so upon some
matter Of business. After having dis
cussed the situation time and time again
between themselves, both hating to 20
to the proprietors, Bunncr and Vallen-
tine consulted q lawyer to determine
what methods they should adop. to get
the desired advancement. ltwss decided,

Though, They Had Taken His Life.
A Frankfort (Ky.) special says
About two weeks ago the bare fact that
Frank Sanders had been shot down in
the mountain wilds Of Whitley county
was learned here from citizens coming
from that section. A gentleman that
lives here has just returned from visit
to Whitley county, and he brings news
of the romance of which the killing
was the finale. lie says that the ira
dition in Whitley is that just before
the close of the war Sanders and two
other men, all Of whom were members
of a guerilla band, took a man named
Sam. Smock into the woods in the
eastern part of the county and put
pistol between his eyes and fired.
Smock fell and they left him for dead.
Fortunately for Sam, the ball ranged
downward, missing the brain, and came
out at the base of his neck. He was
found and cared for by friends, and
after long nursing recovered. The men
who attempted the murder did not try
to conceal their identity from Smock, in
fact they wanted him to know them.
They felt secure in the faith that "dead
men tell no tales
After Shocks recovery he registered
an oath that he would devote his life to

men. A few weeks ago he passed

A Clever Rabbit.

A ludicrous incident occurred at a
rabbit hunt near Hohokus, n. j., on
Saturday. The hound started the
" cotton-tail" in q piece Of short
brush on hillside. The hunter could
witness the race at great distance,
and soon saw the rabbit making cir
Gle. As be came out from the brush he
was seen to stop suddenly. On
rushed the hound, and as he low
cred his head to seize the little ami
NAL, the rabbit gave spring to one
side, and the dog doubled up like a
ball. When he was letting himself
out the rabbit was making time on
the back track. The hound was soon
in full pursuit again, but the rabbit led
the dog to where two saplings grew
close together from an old root. He
then stopped as before and waited until
the dog was almost upon dim, when he
leaped between the two saplings, while
the dog attempted to follow. But there
was barely room for the rabbit, and the
hound was caught between the crotch
and badly injured. The rabbit turned
and looked at his enemy minute, and
was soon lost in the thicket. The dog
started immediately for home, and nc
amount Of coaxing could induce him To
continue the hunt.

Comptroller Caunon's Report, With Suggestions
and Recommendation.
CAV telegraph 10 the Di, patch.l

and Recommendations.
IBy telegraph to the Dhpateh.l
WASHINGTON, December H.
Comptroller Cannon, ex-ofcio commits.
sioner of the Freedman's Savings aud
Trust Company, has made report to
Congress in regard to the affairs OF that
institution, from which it appears that
the total payments made to the credi-
tors OF the company aggregate i,iZV'-
$50, leaving to be paid under the pro-
visions of the act OF February IL, 1883,
the sum of 1886. The commissioner
renews his recommendation for rellei
bv Congress of the unfortunate credi-
tors Of the institution, and adds:
"A great majority Of them are
of the poorest and most illiterate OF our
people. Many Of them have grown old
and decrepit. 1t seems impossible for
these people to realize that they are to
be deprived of, or have lost, portion
of their earnings which years ago they
labored so hard to acquire and save.
Thousands of them to this day believe
that the dividends paid them by the
commissioner are but interest on or
earnings of their deposits, and that soon
er or later their original deposits will be
returned to them. No explanation
seems to convince them to the con-
trary. and calls are made daily,
both orally and in writing, for
their money" Nor ought it to be
considered strange or unreasonable in
view of all the circumstances for these
people to look to the Government for
reimbursement Of their losses. The
company was chartered by CoDgressfor
their special benefit to encourage IN
dustry and thrift, and most of its
branches were presided over by COM
missioned and uniformed officers OF the
| Government. 1t was but natural, there
fore. for them to assume that the Gov
eminent would see to the proper man
agement of the institution and would
protect them from loss. Objection
has been made to the granting of this
relief on the ground of its dangerous
tendency as q precedent. This appre
hension ! think is groundless. There
never was but one Freedman's Bank
there will never be another. From thu
gradual diminution Of the amount called
for on account of the several dividends
declared, it is estimated that the sun
Of $780, 900 would cover the deficiency
between the amount paid (62 per cent.
and the amount to which creditors like
" to call for the same were entitled a
t he time of the failure of the com
pany."
The commissioner submits a bill de
signed to accomplish the desired relief
and says that if the relief is granted
provision should be made for the trans
fer to the United States of the remain
ing assets of the company, as it 1
probable that a considerable sum ma,
vet be realized from the assets, nov
regarded as Of but little or no value.
