EXCITING COURT SCENE.


 Two Members Call Each Other Hard Names-More Trouble to. Probably Follow.
 ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 25.-There was an excit- ing scene in the Annearundle Circuit court here yesterday, s. Thomas Mccullough and Judge Magruder were counsels for defendent and plaintiff respectively in certain case. During the progress of the trial MT. McCul- tough took ofense at 8 remark made by Judge Magruder and rushing toward him heaped invectives upon the head of the judge in which puppy" 'scoundrel," etc., etc., and like epithets played emphatic parts. After awhile order was restored and McCul- tough apologized to the court but wanted it understood that no part of his apology ap- piled to "that contemptible puppy" (Mean. ing Magruder).
 The court rapped Mccullough down and warned both men that or the recurrence of anything in the slightest decree improper, the court would punish them severely. It is stated by friends of the lawyers that the mat ter will not end here.

 aQuarrel.
 CINCINNATI, Oct. 25.-Another shooting affray occurred this afternoon, the result of boys carrying pistols. Three cases of this kind have been recorded during the past week.

Mike Gallagher, fifteen years old, came up and ran his boat into the line of the King boys. Peter ordered him away and threatened to shoot if he did not obey. Gallagher paid no attention to the threat but got in their way again. Peter drew a pistol and fired, the shot taking effect in Gallaghers abdomen. The boy was taken to his home and from there to the Betts street hospital where he lies in a critical con- dition. King was arrested.

BURNED TO THE GROUND.

BURNED TO THE GROUND. The old House at the Foot of Da-
 venport Avenue Burned to the
 Ground 1n Half an Hour-A Widows
 Loss.
 For several years Mrs. Emory F. Tucker, seventy years of age, has lived alone in the old onestory frame house on the Beecher property on Davenport avenue near West river. Last evening Mrs. Tucker went out to pay visit to a neighbor, and at about half-past o'clock when she started to re- turn home she was mortified to see that her house was in flames. She quickly gave an alarm and passer by pulled the box nearest the house, which was box 151, on the corner of Congress avenue and West street. The engines quickly responded to the alarm, but only went as far as West street, except No. 1, which went to the fire, but could be of no service as there was no water near at hand. A crowd quickly gathered, and in half an hour the house was burned to the ground without thing being saved. The loss is about $500. Mrs. Tucker will be cared for by the neighbors for the present.

A Hebrew Who Married Women When
 He Liked..NoW In Jail.
 EATON, Pa. Oct. 15.-The new Pennslva- mia marriage law is not entirely proof against clandestine marriage by parties from this State going to neighboring States. A case of this kind was developed yesterday. Isaac Herdman served a term in jail here in 1884 for bigamy. He is thirty two years old and good looking. He then had wife at Bloomfield, N. J., and came here and married Annie Brown, aged twenty-four, the daughter of one of the first families He married Annie Francis, aged fourteen, six months before Miss Brown, and for this bigamous act he served term in jail. His present offense consists enticing young girl named Lizzie Delaney from this. place to Newark, N. J. Here the girls mother al- leges Herdman induced 8 Mrs. Miller to make Lizzie drunk, and in this stupefed condition they took her to minister's when Herdman married the girl. The greatest in dignation exists over the affair. It is not known how many wives Herdman has living.

FATHER AND SON.

PreIIer's Alleged Murderer and Ills
 Father Held an Affecting Conver-
 sation-The Matter of Insurance
 What the Father Says.
 ST. LOUIS, Oct. 25.-This morning Samuel N. Brooks again met his son, Hugh Nathan Brooks, alias Maxwell, the alleged murderer of Preller, the two coming together in the circuit attorneys ofice This time represen- tatives of the press were allowed to witness their meeting. At sight of his father the young man, whose face was pale with sup pressed emotion, moved rapidly toward a chair, and the father springing quickly to his feet at the same moment they met and clasped hands. The old man gave way and dinging his left arm around his sons neck he drew him up to his breast. Max wells arm enfolded his father and for few moments they stood there silent. when they parted each buried his face in his hands and wept bitterly. A chair was handed Maxwell and father and son sat down and, controlling themselves, finally en- tered into conversation which lasted over an hour. The scene was devoid of sensa- tional features, but the sight of the old and of the young man meeting so far away from their home under such circumstances brought tears to the eyes of several of the by stand CTS. After the interview with his son was over the old gentleman bade him an affec- tionate farewell and left the building. He says: ''Sinoe I have talked with my boy am more than ever of the opinion that he is not guilty of the crime with which he stands charged. He was always a good boy at home-a little wild, as young men will be, but never displayed any disposition toward positive evil" During the course of furth- CT conversation MT. Brooks voluntarily made allusou to 8 question of Preller's life insurance saying: 'sIt is known that Preller had insurance on his life and that it has not yet been paid"
 "What was the amount of the insurancer' ''Twelve hundred pounds, ($6,000.p' "And you know that 1t has not been paidT'
 s'Now I cannot speak with absolute cer- tainty on that subject. It is certain, how ever, that Preller carried the life insurance named, and that up to some weeks ago it had not been paid. Possibly it has been paid since, but I have not heard of such being the case"
 eff you believe or know that your son had entered with Preller into scheme to defraud an Insurance company, would you advise him to tell the whole story of how it was done?"
 1T would, most decidedly"
 ''Did you ever know any of the Prellers?'' ''I never heard the name until it came up in connection with the alledged murder"
 The impression which the older Mr. Brooks made upon all who saw him this morning was most favorable. His personal appearance is plain, but substantial, and his manner is so unpretentious and earnest and his conversation so simple and free that he enlists the sympathy of every one who con verses with him. The strong mutual affec- tion which characterized the meeting be- tween him and his son and the old mans firmly expressed belief in his sons innocence have created a sympathy for the prisoner around the Four Courts buildings which no previous occurrence was able to call into ex istence.

GRANTS EAR FOR MUSIC.
The Degree of Keemness with which
He Distinguished Tunes.


In the September Harper Gen. Horace
Porter writes
The appreciation of music was to him a
lost sense the musicians score was a
sealed book. He used to say he knew
only two tunes one was yankee
Doodle" and the other wasn't. In the
days when he was received ON all occa-
sions to the music of brass bands he
would say with mock pride that he really
believed he had added third tune to his
repertoire-"H Hail to the Chief! !"
When the headquarters were pitched ut
City Point, Mt the time the armies sat
down in front of Richmond and Peters
burg, n general officer who commanded
the brigade stationed at that place wanted
to do something that would afford the
commanding general especial delight, so
he sent the brigade band over to the head
quarters camp to play while the mess
were dining About the third evening
the general remarked I've noticed that
that band always begins its noise Just
about the time | am sitting down to
dinner and want to talk" staff
officer Mt once went to suppress it,
aud see whether it could be
made to obey IN order to 'cease
firing" The brond-belted band master
was putting with all the vigor of quack-
medicine advertisement. His eyes were
glued to his music, and ii was not so easy
n task to attract his attention. Like u
sperm-wale, he had come up to blow, and
was not going to be put down till lie had
finished; but finally he was made to
understand that, like the hand-organ man,
he was desired to move ON. With look
of disinheritance on his countenance he
marched his band of to its camp, feeling
that Mozart and Beethoven had lived in
vain.

Thc First Game Of La.vn-'rennis.


How few lawn-tennis players know who
originated the game, and where the first
game was played This excellent pastime
has now been in existence for ten years,
and it has probably been n greater source
of amusement than anything of the kind
ever invented. The originator and
inventor was Major Walter Winfield, of
her Majestys Body Guard, who, in 1874,
wrote II little book, compiled set of rules,
and coined the outlandish name "Sphair-
istike." The first game ever played wns
in lS7i,at Colonel Naylor Leylands house
in Denbighshire. The first public game
played i'll this country WINS Mt Princes
Ground, in the summer of 1875, the
players being Major Winfield, Mr. Clement
Scott, Captain Alfred Thompson, and Mr..
Albany Erskine. II was openly jcered nj
by n crowd of racket and cricket celebri-
tics, who did their utmost TO ridicule the
game in every way. But in less than one
month two courts We're taken ut Princes
for every hour iii the day, and the racket
players and cricketers had to ''sing small y
