An Unfortunate INCIDENT.

ago for shooting at John Wcaber, a drug
gist, on the South side, was taken before
Esquire Nance yesterday for a prelimi-
nary hearing, but he waived examination
and had his bond fixed at $500, which he
will probably be able to give to-day. 1t
would be Christian charity for some
man OF wealth 10 make this small bond
for him; his wife has only been mother
three days and is moaning her life away
at the calamity which has befallen
the husband and father. Massey's tale
OF the shooting puts different face on
the matter from that generally accepted.

home, sent prescription 10 be filled,
notifying the druggist her husband would
pay for IL ON his return. and he had the
money, too. The medicines were re-
fused, which came near causing the
lady's death. Massey went TO the store
and upbraided Weaber for his heartless-
ness, when Wcaber, so Massey says,

JEFFERSON.

Gov. Hoffman and bis estimable wife
received quite a scare on Friday night,
December 26th. II appears that the
doors had been left open for their son
Gilbert, who attended the dance given in
Jefferson that evening, and the tramp
walked in. Thinking that it was Gilbert
the Governor nor his vile paid much
attention 10 him, until he commenced
singing Rally, round the Flag, Tramp,
tramp the boys are marching" etc. Then
it dawned upon them that it was not
Gilbert but tramp and luhatic besides.
Before the Governor could get dressed,
however, he (the tramp cleared out.
While DIR. W w. Reed was coming
from Johnson's Creek last week Thurs
day night, his buggy broke down, and the
horse speed along without the driver.
The DIR. Immediately telegraphed DR.. G.
L. Smith to look out for the horse, hired
another conveyance, came to Jefferson,
and reached here before The telegram
was delivered. The horse was caught by
some of Gov. Hoffman's hired help and
brought to Jefferson the next morning,
| and without scratch on it.
Saturday, one giving his name as John
Doe, was taken to our Jail. Both bis feet
were frozen, and it is thought at present,
that be will bavs to lose them. It is also
thought that he is insane.

and ia both respects ample proviaiona

illumination demanded q sacrifice OF

but it was made without hesltancy TO
promote the design Of Mr.. Chapman
Nothing will be spared 20 make the
ventilation and heatiag of the building
perfect. thus securing aot only tie health
of the employees, but providing comfort
for those whose stay is but tran
sient. The tsmporary quarters wherein
Mr.. Chapman is at present located are
somewhat illy-ventilated. and Mr.. Chap
mans sick list of employees has largely
increased, and yet the store 10 but o
sample Of the majority in the city. At
present the store is not opened until $3.50
o'clock, while cessation of work occurs
daily at $3.50 o'clock, and each employer
is given an hour to an hour and q bali
for the noon meal. By this means much
inconvenience to employees from the in
furious effects of poor ventilation 10 avoid,

In this frigid norther climate the heat
ing of building is an important factor,
not only for comfort, but for health as
well, especially so in building where
there are 800 employees, and where thou
sands of people are constantly passing 10
and out Great pains and expense have
been expended to meet al! requirements
in this respect.
THE R5THETIC FEATURES.
1t was after these features had been
evolved into satisfactory combination
that Mr. Chapman began to think of the
aesthetic and beautiiying attributes, and
these were arranged with thoroughness,
and, at the same time, with simple ele-
gance, taste and refinement.
Mature gives us a rainbow and
sunset Mr.. Chapman said, "and only
man is endowed with the conception to
GRASP their infinite beauty apd their
wealth of harmony. Dumb creatures of
lower instinct know no appreciation of the
beautiful, cannot conceive the harmony
Of color, nor the symmetry of form
Only man can grasp these as hotic
qualities. Then why should not this
sense of beauty and of art be givea
every possible opportunity FOR gratifica-
toni"
It was in accordance with thess senti-
ments that The old store was 80 richly
