Delegates.
On motion adjourned.

Emperor Fredrick has had turn
for the worse and predictions are
now made that he will not long
live TO rule the vast German EN-
pire. Grave apprehensions are
felt that when the frey young
Prince William comes to the throne
the peace of Europe is likely to be
disturbed; but it is scarcely likely
that any serious result will ensue.
Germany has outgrown the time
when one man, even though he be
an Emperor, holds the thunderbolt
Of war III his hands. The legisla-
tive body there has a growing pow
er that even a young and headlopg
ruler cannot ignore.

country found and worked an ex-

took millions. This mine could be
seen from the gates of the old a

which is at the present day such, an
attraction to tourists.

JEWS CCN1NG TO THE FRONT

y - VI OA4NO IL ALL NUN
Washington, April "A The ses-
sion ot the senate was opened with
prayer by Rev. DR.. II. Pcreira
Mendoza, rabbi of the Spanish and
Portuguese congregation Of New
York. This.is the second instance,
probably, in the history Of the gov
crnment, when jew has oifered,a
prayer in. the senate.
We clip the above from the%as,
sociated prcss' dispatches of last
week. 1t. lucidly demonstrates the
truth of what the old Virginia col
ored .spreacher{was laughed at for
asSeverating, ode world do move"
We remember few years ago
what an excitement was raised at
Cincinnati and swept like a cVclone
throughout the% country-all be
cause a young lrishman married
the daughter ef the venerable Dr.
WISE, )eading'Jewish Rabbi, in
fact the most prominent Rabbi in
the United States, shis. prominence
growing!out Of lis .eloquence and
talent as a speaker and writer. A
period Of less than score of wears
since the marriage of Christians
and Jews was as inlreqnent as that
of whites and blacks. (Whenever
we hear or read of the latter our
sympathy reaches ont to the party
in black. But as prejudice against
the Hebrew Ias'given way to to-!
erance, and tolerance to free asso-
cation with their former pcrsccut-
ors, the Jews in turn, have become
less dogmaiic, and either wear
their faith loosely, or have cast
it away from them altogether 1t
is but short time since two OF the
daughters of the famous. toths
childs married two ChIistian gen
tlemen.
1t Is a noticeable fact, however,
that Jews look with more favor up
on the Roman Catholic church
than any other Christian denomi-
nation, to which tact may be as
cribed the remark made by the "bit
brother" Of the Miss Wise who
married the Irish gorsoon, in re
ferring to the groom sand, 81 it Is
not that the fellow sister married is
IL Christian that troubles Us, brt
that he is not a Christian. The
duly elected husband, it appeared,
had been educated a Catholic by
Catholic parents, but had reuounc-
ed the faith and cast his lot with
the Protestants. Perhaps this
looking with favor upon the Catno-
lie church is owing 10 the Caet that
the first Pope was a Jew, and that
the first council of the church was
composed wholly Of Jewish b;sh-
ops. Notwithstanding they rcru.
diate Mary, and Jesus, the fact
stands forth in bold relief that the
mother of the Roman church waa
II Jewess, and Jesus was Jew
I is re-association, therefore, Of
Christians and Jews would seem to
be history repeating itself.
Another evidence that Jews are
gravitating toward Christians, II
not toward Christianity, is found
in the tact that they are not so
genoraily calling their children af-
ter the old prophets and mothers
Of prehistoric times, but are chiiS-
tening them with more modern
names, as also in the freedom with
which they attend Christian church

KILLED FROM AMBUSH.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April 14.-McDowell
Crawford, prominent citizen of Will
hanson county, was assassinated at 1850
o'clock yesterday. Mr.. Crawford had just
been to Nolensville to secure his mail from
the postoffice atthat place, and was re-
turning to his home when the tragedy oc-
CURED. He had passed the old toll gate,
four miles from Nolensville, and was rid
ing in an open buggy alone. A short
distance from the former gate the
Nolensville and Cahpelhill mail
coach, containing a number of ladies
passed him. The next moment the driver
of the stage coach heard the crack Of a
rifle Turning to look back he saw Craw-
ford fall backward from his buggy and lie
PROSTATE in the middle of the pike. Craw-
ford's horse ran on, not stopping until it
reached home. Crawford was dead before
anyone from the stage coach could get to
him. Examination showed that the bull
let struck him behind the right shoulder
blade and ranged upwards TO the neck,
where it struck the spinal chord, causing
instant death.
This is the third time that an attempt
has been made to assassinate him. The
killing of Crawford can, it is alleged, be
traced back to one who was suspected OF
attempting to assassinate him three years
ago. At that time he was ambuShed near
Ellis Mill, about five miles from Nolens-
vile, and was almost riddled with buck
shot A colored man by the name of New
ton Patton was arrested and tried, but the
evidence was not sufficient to convict him.
1t is alleged that he was the perpetrator of
Yesterdays crime and warrant for hlssar-
rest has been issued.
A circumstance which points to Patton
as the criminal is the fact that he has often
threatened to kill Crawford. Only few
days ago he sent him word that he was
going to kill him. Two years ago Craw-
ford became the guardian of a colored i'm
beetle named Polk who had some property
and was related to Patton who wished to
get Crawford out of the way SO the could
guardians themselves. A lawsuit for that
purpose was brought and is now pending
IN the Williamson county court and has
cost both sides considerable money. The
fight has been very severe and a bitter
feud has existed between the parties.
