STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

About noon last Tuesday, during the rain
her falling, a servants house on the
grounds of the Kings Mountain Military
School, and situate about So or 40 yards
from the main school building, was struck
by lightning. The house is a double build
ing, with chimney in centre, and the CHM
ney, which was the part struck, was demol-
ished, the flue being completely torn down,
and falling into the rooms, and the portion
left standing rent to the hearth. The occu-
pants of the house were out at the time, and
though there was no fire in neither Fireplace,
as a result of the flash there was Il dense
smoke which was almost suffocating in the
house several minutes after the occurrence.

fare you going to hit" asked Marshal
R. l.. Jones of Frank P. Gray, who stood
before him with a stone in his hand. An
almost simultaneous shot pierced Gray
through the left breast, and he fell dying.
This took place in West End, an aristocratic
suburb of Atlanta, at one O'Clock last Sun
day while the people were dispensing from
church. An old feud existed between the
Gray, in which he was fOiled. On Sunday,
while the marshal was trying to drive some
COW off the side walk, he was stopped by
Gray, who claimed one of the animals,
which resulted in the tragedy as stated.
The excitement which ensued was indie
scribable. Gray was one of the %best-known
lawyers of that section of Georgia, rich,
with a fashionable family and popular.
Jones was Immediately arrested and hur-
ried off to Jail. He made two attempts on
his own life after he realized the nature Of
his crime.
Atlanta is somewhat agitated at present
over the question whether prohibition may
not be thwarted by seeking to enforce the
provision of the charter which gives to the
city government the power to issue liquor
licenses, which power it is claimed, still
stands. Some very earnest anti-prohibi-
tiOnists claim that the charter is in force I'M
less expressly changed. OF course the pro-
hibitionists urge that the liquor license
power is repealed by the General Local OPP
ton law and the election under it. And
many of the most ardent anti's have no
faith in the point. In July prohibition goes
into operation. Numbers of the liquor
dealers have closed, and others have pre-
pared to 60 out of business. Many have
started new business in their old stands,
and seem glad of the change. Paul Jones,
the largest wholesale dealer, will move his
business to Louisville, Ky. From move
ments of the Liquor Dealers Association,
it is thought that an effort will be made to
test the charter question in the courts.

A. @, Z. Entertainment.

The last entertainment given by Divi-
sion No. /, A. O. H., April 26, 1885,
Harmonic hall, was one Of the most at
tractive Of the season. The programme,
which had been selected with great
care, was carried out without q hitch,
and the interest Of the aullience never
for moment throughout Jagged. The
first part consisted of an overture by
the orchestra address, "Progress Of
the Order,'' by James R. Corrigan,
Esq, which will be found in another
column; song. Mr.. A. L. lennon; piano
selection, Miss Nellie Hail: select read
ing, Chris. A. Gallagher, Esq; song,
Miss Francis Bailey; La File du Regi-
ment, Boyer, Miss Helen McGurrin;
quartette, select choir; picolo solo and
accompaniment, Mr.. William Byrnes
and Miss Nellie Hall.
For Che second part that de-splitting
farce, "Paddy Niles Boy" was given
with She following cast of characters:
Paddy Miles boy, Mr.. J. J. Smith; DR..
Coates, W. J. Reese; Harry (his SOM,
NJ. E. Keenan,; Job (the Gardener), P.
j. Rooney; Reuben, J. f.. McCauley;
Mrs. Figget, Miss Eva Mcdonald; Jane
Cher daughter), Miss Francis Bailey,
The different parts were sustained with
a precision that would have done honor
to professionals. It would be unjust to
all to particrlarize, but suffice it to say
that each and every one Of them enacted
the parts assigned TO them in such
manner as to call forth repeated ova-
tions of applause from the audience.
We hope to see them again in this farce.

the Catholic Total Abstinence Union.
His trip embraced all that territory ly-

thusiastic meetings greeted him at every

pledges are the efficient proof Of his sue

Rend, Of Chicago, paid all his expenses,
having given So 1000 for this purpose.

The Modern Curse Of Hurry,

In his recent speech at the Mansion
House Mr.. Goschen said: We hurry
on our railways we hurry through our
telegrams. What is the result of hurry
ing on the railway? We never see the
beauties Of the scenery through which
we pass. and so with hurried reading,
you dc not see the beauties of the litera-
ture you peruse. And what is the next
result? 1t is that, as you do not appre-
ciate those beauties, the beauties are
no longer created for you, style suffers
because readers read too fast to enjoy
the style, and beautiful writing is be-
coming more and more rare. Some
men there. are who, in reaction against
the slovenliness of the writing of the
present day, become themselves stylists
and literary aesthetics; but that again
is rather an exaggeration. Speaking
generally, first-class style in literature
is being weakened, and seriously weak
elled, by the extraordinary pace at
which everybody is anxious to read.
