Samuel C. Mott arrived in town last night, Mir. Mott is the manager of the Jeffreys-Lewis troupe and is surveying the field here to see what encourage ment he can meet with towards having Miss Lewis perform here. This actress has world wide reputation and would doubtless draw big house in Tomb stone where such opportunities to see high class acting are few and far be- tween. Should the performance be given it will be on the sth and 9th of April. The expenses of this. troupe may be judged from the fact that the salary of Miss Lewis is $500 a week.

Writes Another Letter that Is Likely to
Cause Him Trouble.
ST. LOUIS. March G.

ST.. LOUIS, March G.
A popular fund to provide for Mrs.
Catharine Scales, Of this city, who is
now past seventy years, and has devoted
45 years OF her life to the building up
of the magnificent public school system
of this city, has lately been started. The
following letter from General Sherman
declining to contribute to the fund,
printed in to-day's Chronicle is inter
esting in connection with recent private
correspondence OF the Generals which
has attracted so much attention:
Mrs. ]. Anderson, St. Louis DEAR
MADAM Your feeling appeal in be-
half OF Mrs. Catherine Scales, OF the
Jefferson public schools is before me,
and though you are a stranger TO me, /
Will venture to offer few iaets which |
hope will convince you that General
Sherman ought not to be expected TO
contribute to this CHARITY, though most
worthy. = / have owned real property
in st. Louis since 1850, on which !
have paid thousands of dollars in taxes,
though | have not received a cent in
return. My family is Catholic and
Mrs. Sherman would no more consent
to have her children enter public
school than common tavern. There
fore have been compelled to pay
large prices for education in private
schools. Again, for the past twenty
years l have been taxed heavily by old
Union soldiers who are sent to me by
neghbors or naturally come to me in
their distress. believe | am thus
taxed So to 81 paid by any OF the most
wealthy citizens of St. Louis, and this
is one of the causes which drives me
from st, Louis. / sympathize, OF
course, with Mrs. Scales and believe
the school board can and should pro-
vide for her in her old age. They can
and must employ her in some nominal
capacity. They have no right after
45 years faithful service to turn her out
in the cold charity OF the world. They
would not treat a horse in that brutal
fashion. / expect to continue to pay
over $500 year to the SCHOOL, tax of
st. Louis, and cheerfully offer to dedi-
cate the whole or part of it for fund
to maintain worthy teachers who have
given the best years of their life TO
teaching, over and above my school
tax. | cannot afford moro and beg you
to excuse me.
With respect, your friend.

FAYETTEVILLE, WEST Va. March 6.
One OF the most brutal prize fights
that ever took piece in the State was
fought two days ago in barn near
here, and became known only through
the death OF one OF the contestants last
night. Frank McGongle and James
Sheady fought forty-tf,ree bloody rounds
for purse Of $50. The real animus OF
the fight, however was an old and Bit
ter grudge growing OF quarrel about
Ellen McNamore, beautiful girl who
had toyed with the affections Of both.
McGongle and Sheady we're both min
ers. There were but two men present
besides the seconds, who were John
Howley and Pete Jones, local sports.
McGongle throughout the forty-three
rounds had the best of the fight. In
the first round tho latter retired to his
corner with broken nose, at the same
time splitting out piece of the little
finger of McGongle's lett hand. The
men eyed each other like devils and to
the fourth round were covered in blood
from head to foot. One OF the men who
was present says it was most horrible
exhibition of brutality. The flesh was
cut away from Sheady's eyes and hung
in mass on his checks, which bis Sec
ond finally cut off. McGonigle's right
ear was torn almost entirely off by
Sheady's belt, and his jaw was broken.
Neither man would give in. although
at the thlrty-fiGth round the seconds
urged them to stop. The forty-third
and last round found Sheady in his
corner, lying face downward and in
sensible, while McGongle, who had
kicked him there, hurriedly gathered
up his clothing and staggered out past
the seconds; the rest of the spectators
having left horror stricken. The sec.
onds carried Sheady to his home to die
Neither of them has been seen since
Sheady's death, and the whereabouts O
McGongle in also unknown.

CRUELTY TO A CHILD.
Mrs. w. J. Johnson Arrested for MIstreating
Her Adopted Daughter

Judge Tyler issued warrant this
morning for the arrest of Mrs. ~. j.
Johnson, the wife of the man by the
same name who lives on the Nashville
pike near the toll gate She is accused
OF cruelty to a little child which she
and her husband adopted year or two
since. The child is little girl the
youngest Of the Shanks children, who
were adopted 10y various persons about
the city on the death OF their parents
leaving them destitute.
1t is alleged that the Johnson woman
has been heard to say that she wished
the child would die, that she threw it
naked into the deep snow of the End OF
February, and is very cruel in her
general treatment OF it.
The Johnson's came here from some
point in Kentucky. They live on the
place where Mr.. S. b. Seat is putting
ont pear orchard. The child was
bound TO them and they had its name
changed to theirs.

We publish another card from Mr..
Louis Munford this evening in which
he calls attention to the fact that we used
The word prohibition when we should
have used submission, and draws very
proper distinction between the two.
We accept Mr.. Muniord's amendment
and repeat Suppose Democratic
nominee for representative bea most
excellent Democrat in the strictest ac-
ceptation Of the term, but avowedly op-
posed to submission, will the temper
ance voters give him vary hearty sup
port?'

Submission Not Prohibition.
To tho Chronicle.

To tho Chronicle.
! do not care TO engage in news
paper controversy, but could not for
bear to reply to your editorial in Tues
days issue. / felt that it was calcu-
lated to unnecessarily mislead the
people and mystiiy the public mind.
In it you used TIE following language:
Suppose the Democratic nominee
for representative be most excellent
Democrat in the strictest acceptation of
the term, but avowdly opposed to pro-
hibitlOn, will the temperance voters in
the party give him a very hearty sup
port" Now, the point | wanted to
make clear is, that while the recent
State Temperance convention preferred
that legislative candidates favor the
pending prohibition constitutional
amendment, yet they only demanded
of candidates for the general assembly
that they should pledge themselves to
vote to submit the amendment to the
people. This action was commended
on all sides as eminently conservative
and eminently the proper course to
pursue. My information is that not
only will the Democrats and Republi-
cans favor submission but also the
whisky men; the latter because they
want to know the will of the people on
this question, so that they can prepare
themselves accordingly If, in the
back fnoonshine counties Of East Ten.
nessee or any other counties as for that
the lawless element should control the
conventions of existing parties and bt
so un-Republican and Democrat,
as to refuse to submit TO the people
then / concede that the temperanc,
men will be forced to run Submission
candidates. / hope that we will no
"misapprehend'' each other any NOR,
and that both OF us are now set right.
Respectfully,
LOUIS G. MUNFoRD.

Committee has made call for two con-
ventions. The one to nominate can
didate for Governor is not to meet until
Aug. 18th. This is unusually late, but
it affords ample time for the swing
around the circle in which the nominee
can be diurnelly "skined" by his Dem
ocratic opponent, according to the DEM
ocratsc papers, or can himself as often
perform the vivisecting operation, ac-
cOrding to the Republican papers.
