Der Alright, Jeter Phillips's confes-
sion was not made public until the
condemned man was upon the scaf'
fold. 1t was read by Dr. n. T..
Dickinson, who was one of Jeter
Phillips's spiritual advisers. Phil
lips asserted his innocence even
more strongly than Cluyerius has
asserted his, but lie weakened at
the hour of death and told all
about the murder of his unfortunate
wife. Phillips and Cluverius were
each named for a minister, but in
stead Of following the teaching
of the pious men Of God for whom
they were named, they wandered
off from the path of right and com.
mitted the greatest crime known
TO the law. l believe that when
Clnverius ascends the scailold he
will then, if not before, confess his
guilt, unless friends plead with him,
for the sake of those near to him
by kith and kin, not to make a con-
fessiOn. | know Of several men
that were condemned to death who
boldly proclaimed their innocence
until the very last moment, and,
speaking from the record, | should
say that Thomas j. Cluverius Will
do as others like him have done be-
fore-make a confession before the
black cap covers his face.-Rich-
mond state, 10H.

COY. LEE AS A WITNESS.

bNlN. LIE 40 n W 1 NIt1bs
The developments in the case of
G. II. f. Deurring, who rendered
detective services to Thomas j.
Cluverius, will necessitate the pres
ence of Gov. Lee as a witness in the
event that Deurring is sent on to
the grand Jury. The Governor will
not bc regularly summoned as 9TH
er witnesses, but on account OF hls
exalted official position the Judge
or the prosecuting attorney Will
write the Governor a note request
ing his attendance at the trial.
Since it has become known that
Joel opened the watch key found
at the reservoir and identified it as
the property OF T. j. Cluyerius, the
testimony of the Governor will be
Of great interest as he will then
doubtless tell the circumstances re-
lating to the opening OF the watch
KEY. Gov. Lee will be, as far as
the state knows, the first Governor
to testify as n witness at either a
criminal or a civil trial.-Richmond

Senator Charles ". Jones Injured.
THROWN FROM A CARRIAGE IN De
TROIT-HE SAYS THERE IsA
CONSPIRACY AGAINST HIM.

CONSPIRACY AGAINST HIM.
Senator Jones of Florida, while
riding out with his son Clarence,
in Detroit yesterday, was thrown
out of the buggy by his horse be-
coming frightened and running
away. He was somewhat seriously
injured. 1t was expected by friends
in his confidence that he would
leave for Washington last night,
but he now announces that he will
report for duty at the national cap
ital after the holiday recess. Sena-
tor Jones also says that he is a
candidate for reelection, and that
he expects to be returned to the
Senate. He claims that the stories
which have been published so ex-
tensively about him since his stay
In Detroit are part OF conspiracy
that exists outside of his state, and
that he is in possession of tele-
grams, letters and other documents
to prove his statements. Several
prominent politicians and newpa-
paper correspondents, he says, are
implicated. He promises a dis
closure shortly which will startle
the country, and which will vindi-
cate himself by showing that he
had substantial reasons for leaving
Washington and residing in De-
troit to regain his health, which had
been shattered by severe judicial
labors in Florida, and which was
not improved by the unhealthy eli
mate of Washington.

Charm Of American Women.

The jersey Lily, who had royalty
and aristOcracy at her feet. is the
best possible proof that the aris-
tocracy of nature eclipses that of
birth and rank even in the most
prctentious and exclusive spheres.
no duchess while / was in England
enjoyed a triumph to be compared
with that of Mrs. Langtry, who
may now be seen in her glory,
gowns and all, without a pcesenta-
ton at court. And yet the Amer.
can women, at least the fashion
able ones, are always hankering
after aristOcratic advantages. If
they only knew it, they surpass
those whom they evy. American
women have a natural charm, often
an inmate distinction OF manner,
that has made them sought at every
court in Europe. Not long ago |
was talking with a country woman
who knew as much about foreign
society as any other American, or,
indeed, as many Europeans OF the
most favored class, and we amused
ourselves by counting the compat.
riots we had personally known who
had become cOuntesses, ambassa-
dresses, duchesses, princesses, not
to say queens for Elise Hensler sat
very near a throne), and there were
121.
Some of these women had been
clerks in the war or treasury de-
partment in Washington, and sever
al we're not atall ofthe society that
calls itself "good," no matter how
bad its members may be. | remem'
ber how the Washington bellies

Water as a TIppIe.
MEN WHO DRINK 1T BY MOONLIG 1T
ALONE, AND MEN WHO DRINK
1T ALL THE TIME.

A friend OF mine drinks a great
deal Of water during the period OF
moonlight nights, but during the
period of dark nights he drinks
none at all. This habit, if it can
be called such, IS involuntary, and
it was unconscious until my friend
made the discovery that the change
of the moon had something to do
with his thirst. Another friend in.
forms me that during the past two
months he has touched no water al
all, except such as may be found in
his coffee or his buttermilk. Yet
he is not opposed to water. lie
has simply had no desire for it dur
ing the past two months.
Still, another friend drinks water
copiOusly, especially at meal times.
At dinner, for example, he has a
two. gallon pitcher at his elbow,
and during his meal he drinks as
many as ten or twelve goblets full
of this harmless fluid. This is op-
posed, of course, to the theories OF
the doctors, as almost every other
sensible thing is, but my friend
who drinks his two gallons of wa
ter with his dinner, is not only fat,
but robust. He does not know
what it is to be seriously i'll, and he
enjoys life more thoroughly than
any man | know. | have been at
a loss hitherto to account tor his
overwhelming vitality-for his ex'
traordinary supply ofanimal spirits
But it is no longer a mystery. II
is the water.
Without exception, think it will
be found that those who drink lit
tie or no water are of slender girtl
and somewhat cynical in their
views-veritable pessimlsts indeed
or at least inclined that way
The real fountain of wit is not the
flowing bowl, but the water pitcher

ing ceremony:
"Jim will you take Bet,

All of which being answered IN
the affirmative by jim, the Squire
turned to Bet aud said:
"Bet will you take jim,

Holding him to your heart,

from tho Richmond state.
Between 3 and ) o'clock yester-
DAY afternoon Rev. DIR. Hatcher,
the spiritual adviser of Thomas j.
Cluyerius, called upon the Govern
or and presented formal applica-
tion for a respite. The paper was
signed by the prisoner, who request
ed the Governor to give him re-
prieve for sixty days, saying; "Ihls
| Solemnly feel is most needful and
important for me in my present sad
condition, all earthly hope being
now cnt off," The Governor sent
message 10 the prisoner by DIR.
Hatcher telling him he would re-
spite him until the 14th of January
next.
When this news reached the con-
demned man it considerably reliev-
ed his anxiety, as it gave him a
longer lease OF life.
A STARTLING FEATURE,

public last night by the arrest OF
c. II. f. Deurring, formerly men,
Der of the Richmond police force,
from which he was dropped for i'm

lie was arrested upon a warrant
issued by Police Justice Richardson
charging him with intending un'
lawfully to Obstruct and impede
the administration of juctice, and
that he did uniawfully and corrupt
ly couSpiIe, combine, confederate,
and agree with another person or
persons unknown to offer to Her
man Joel money and thereby at
tempt to persuade and induce the
said Herman Joel to make false
statement to the Governor of Vir-
giuia touching a matter then pend
ing before him concerning the ap-
plicatOn for pardon or cOmmuta-
tion of sentence OF Thomas j. Clu-
vcrius of the sentence against him,
the said Cluverius having been con-
victed for murder and sentenced by

talked with him about the watch
KEY since jeweller Joel opened 1t
and fully established the fact that
the key was the property OF the
prisoner. Clnverius talks moreup
ON the subject Of religion now than
he has ever done since his arrest
