him and showed him paper, the ono
he had signed. It was a contract to
purchase 1000 worth of wire. He in
vited the men into his barn, where he
snatched the paper from the hands of

from the premises with a pitchfork.

lieve that city and country is ripe for such
a venture. Q Iit3 & number OF farmcTs in
this vicinity have turned their attention to
stOck-raising, and with such signal success
that they feel eucou aged to continue the
importation OF the highest priced aud best
breed of horses and cattle. AS to farm
products, Mr. Craig has shown what is
being done in that direction by the far
mers of Shelby county under such stim-
ulus as he himself can sffDrd. This should
be encouragement sufficient for the Jockey
Club, which, by Pmoarking in the fair
business, would afford a fresh guarantee
that Memphis is equal to all the demands
that her growth puts upon her.

Kate CastIeton

This charming commedienne and song
stress begins an engagement of one week
at the Memphis Theater Monday night in
Crazy Patch, OF which the Chicago Herald
says: Kate Castleton appeared here last
week in farcical sbsurdIty called 4 Crd=y
Pdtch. The American stage is not rich in
commediennes, but among the few who
stand prominent in this line of business at
the present day Miss Castleton may claim
the first place. The audience tonight was
largs enough TO fill the theater had it been
twice the size, and the enthusiastic man
ner in which they received the actress and
her whimsical piece left no doubt regard
ing her permanent popularity here. Mifs
Csstleton has every requisite for popular
ity. She has one of the most winsome
faces on the stage; her smile is irresistibly
captivating; her voice is rich, powerful,
melodious and very sympathetic, and the
songs she sings are accompanied by action
that smacks more of the Psrisian school
than ofthe American. Miss Castleton is sur
rounded by a company of unusual
strength, and the piece is brimful of situa-
tions amusing enough 10 keep the audiencs
laughing from the beginning to the end"

NEW YORK, November 20.-At to days
session of the committee { f the State Sem
ate making investigation into the affairs OF
the city government, two stenographers of
civil district courts testified to paying
money literally out Of their salary iowa
election expenses and for other purposes.
One s'enographer attached to Judge Nc
Carthy's court SAID he paid in this way
$1,000 year out Of salary of $1,000. This
money he afIerward learned was turned
over TO Assemblyman Roche. When be
stopped these payments Judge Mccarthy
told him an agreement was an agreement,
and he ought to live up to it. Not doing
80, he was discharged. The name Of this
witness is George S5rassner. Maurice o.
Conner, the stenographer in Judge VIM
q. Kelry's civil district court, said he was
told after he got the position that Judge
Kelly had an expen'ive laweuit on hand
and needed pecuniary aid. Between his
appointment in 1882 and the latter part ot

SOFIA, November 20.-The following are
additional details of the fighting yester-
day; The right wing of the Bulgarian
army yesterday advanced from its fortified
position and attacked the Servian positions
between Slivenitza and Dragoman. The
center column of the Bulgarian army soon
followed, in order to support the right.
The fighting then became general, and the
Bulgarians not being able to drive the
Servians from their entrenchments, toward
noon the left wing of the Bulgarian army
also advanced and assumed the offensive
An obstinate battle ensued lasting till 6
o'clock in the evening. The Bulgarians
found it no easy task to dislodge the Ser,
vians from their positions. The former
fought desperately, however, and finally
compelled the Servians to retreat to ORA.
CONAN, the Bulgarians holding all the
roads leading thereto. The latter took
400 prisoners, including several officers
Up to noon to-day there had been nc
further fighting, the Bulgarians deeming
it prudent not to attack at present the
Servians at Drsgoman, which has strong
natural Notifications.

SPEAKER CARLISLE
In Favor of a Revision OF the iiu1ca o.
the Hoase.

WASHINGTON, November 20.-Speaker
Carlisle said to a Republican reporter tc-
night, in speaking of the plan proposed by
Mr.. Springer to change the rules of the
House, that the plan did not originate
with Mr.. Springer. Ever since the
Forty-sixth Congress" he said. "there
has bsbn dissatisfaction at the present
rules, and this movement is the result
of this dissatisfaction. From what I hear,
and the strong advocacy the plan seems
to have, I think it is probable that the
rules will be changed" He said the plan
to distribute the appropriations fresr
amongst the committees is not an attack
on Mr.. Randall any more than any one
else, as the same dissatisfaction was mani
fest when Mr.. Hiscock and Mr.. Atkins
were at the head Of the Appropria-
tions Committee. SIT is not the DESIRE. he
said, "to take away any of Mr.. Randall's
power, and l don't think there ever was
any such feeling. The complaint is that
the handling of all the appropriation
bills is too much work on the Ap-
propriations Committee. A change would,
of course facilitate legislation" Mr.. Car
Isle said he favored the distribution
of the bills to the proper committees, ex-
cepting the sundry civil, legislative and
general deficiency bills, as these really be-
long to no other committee. He said he
believed that the proposed revision would
work good results.
