Two Murders to Answer For--An Organ

NASHVILLE, TENN, January 80.
Riley Pile, n desperado and moon
sinner of Pickett County, killed Deputy
United States Marshal Jas. Mcdonald,
recently and few days ago murdered
Junk Davidson, highly esteemed farm
er. Deputy Marshals Phillips and Nc
Donald raided Piles still few weeks
ago, destroyed the outfit and arrested
Pile. At first Pile pretended to submit,
but waiting his opportunity, he suddenly
drew pistol and instantly killed Nc
Donald. Making his escape under run
ming fire, Pile hid In the mountains, defy
Ing capture. When the excitement died
ont he appeared among the people, who,
knowing him to be desperate man,
made no attempt TO arrest him.
He conceived the notion that farmer,
Luke Davidson, had betrayed him to the
raiders. He went to Davidson and made
him give him note for $75, the value of
the still destroyed by the revenue men.
The note fell due the other day and Da.
vldson refused to pay. Pile said he would
have blood or money, and would give
him two days to settle. At the end of
that time, finding Davidson working in a
field, Pile, at the muzzle of rife, marched
him up the mountain side, to where a
huge ledge projects over a high cliff. He
told Davidson that he was going to place
the note on his forehead and collect it by
pushing him over the preclpice.
A woman living near by had seen the
two men, and knowing Piles desperate
character, dispatched boy in search OF
Davidson's brother Junk. The latter was
found, and accompanied by a man named
Oliver, was sooE on Piles trail, and ar
rived in sight just as Pile was about to
shove his victim over the precipiee. Oil
ver accidentally slipped, attracting Piles
attention. The latter Instantly fired with
his rife, mortally wounding Junk David
son, who died In few hours.
Luke Davidson took to his heels
and escaped, leaving Pile and Oil
yer alone. Oliver fired his pistol, severe
ly wounding Pile in the arm. A running
fire ensued for three quarters OF a mile,
Oliver reloading his pistol three times.
Pile jumped behind a rock, and Oliver
afraid to approach, gave up the chase.
Pile was Joined next day by his brother,
who is equally well known as despera-
do. The citizens have organized parties
and are searching the mountains, declar-
ing they will lynch them.

THE current issue of the New York
Weekly Herald contains an apt illus
tration Of the situation in Soudan. The
illustration is divided into two 81 ctions.
The first one represents portly johnnie
Bull complacently poised on the recum-
bent form of follower of Mahomet,
using son Of Islam, who has assumed
devotional attitude, as foot STOOL
The meanwhile look of sublime COM
placency adorns Johnnie's beaming
countenance. The Turk and Arab are
both comparatively diminutive figures
in this section. The aspect of section
number two. which is illustrative of the
British position as it actually exists, is
very different from figure one. In this,
the recnmbent and puny figures of Turk
and Arab suddenly and simultaneously
assume standing posture, indicative Of
their real might, much to the discern
fort and discontinue of Cousin John,
who finds himself thus, without warn
ing precipitated from his self-elcyated
pinnacle of egotism to the dust of real
ity-and defeat.
