BURNING HER CHILDREN.

MIS-. srsss xprfnx Fires Her Csiidrsn's cIesa-
s~s sss cass Ser ows Threat.
A Buffalo IN. " special says: The
wife Of Scott Spring, well-to-do citi-
zen Of Alexander, Wednesday, burn-
ed her two children 10 death and
cut her own throat. Husband and wife
auarrelIed Tuesday, and Wednesday
morning, while working in the vicinity
Of his home, Spring observed smoke
coming out Of the open windows OF the
house, and rushing in. found his two
children weltering on the floor, their
clothing in flames. In a corner Of the
room lay the wife in pool Of her own
blood. her throat cut from ear to ear
with a razor. The murderous blade lay
close beside her.
The father made an attempt to put
out the fire, but discovered that the
children's clothing had been soaked
with kerosene oil. Before he could
get blankets to smother the flames both
children were burned to death. Mrs.
Spring has been regarded as good
mother by her ncighbors, and they are
at loss to account for her terrible deed
save from grounds Of insanity.

Decision in . Railroad Case.
fBy telegraph to the Dispatch.l

ATLANTA, GA, April 2.--In the
Supreme Court to-day a decision was
rendered in the case Of Angler and
others against the Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia railroad, being an applica-
ton for receiver. Some time ago q
receiver was appointed in the State
court, and the case was removed
to the United States Court, where Major
Henry Fink, who had been appointed re-
ceiyer by the Federal Courtin Tennessee,
was sustained. The question Of re-
moyal was carried to the State Supreme
Court, where to-day the judgment was
reversed, the court holding that the
East Tennessee road is a Georgia cor
poration, as it exists under the charter
TO the Cincinnati and Georgia railroad
granted by the Georgia Legislature.
There is doubt as to the future turn
of affairs.

no less than twelve or fifteen CONNER
c;al agents in town making bids on
contracts for their respective houses,
II will; not be known until night who
has been awarded contracts. The

After the adjournment Of the Board
last evening the members were enter
tanned at the Asylum Amusement Hall
by the Old Virginia Minstrels, who,
under the artistic leadership Of Mr.. i.
S. Lacy, illustrated burnt-cork hnmor
in its happiest style.
A rnass-meeting Of the farmers Of

agent here for the Chesapeake and Ohio
Company, has returned from Rich
mond, where he was transferred, and
resumed the agency here. xxx
Mr.. James Pendleton, Of Atlanta,
Ca, former agent for the same COM

Miss Irene Meanly. Of James City
county, and Mr.. Fitzhugh Jones, Of
this place, were married in Washington
a few days since.
Spring, in the indignant effort to kick
winter out, became almost too ethe-
really mild in this region. 1t was a
dear leap from frost to fire and the citi-
zen Of Williamsburg mops his capacious
brow MS vigorously to-day as he
trumpted his nasal attachment the week
before. The farmers are working with
a vim replanting the destroyed seed.
