flash of a pistol was noticed near the

u8ou Ol d plStOl was uOIlCeu ucci IAO
track on the east side of the train
and an unknown passenger who had
stepped out and was standing on
the platform OF the car was heard to
utter cry as if hurt. Detective
F. Il. Tut OF the Missouri Pacific
company chanced to be passenger
on the train and occupied a seat on
the side II the coach from which the
shot cam, and near the door. He
at once pulled the bell cord to stop
the train, ran t, the platform and
finding that the man outside had
really been shot, left him to be taken
care of by Others that had come to
his assistance, and as the train slow
ed up jumped from the platform for
the purpose OF capturing the mis-
creant if possible. The detective
failed to overtake the man, but fol.
lowed his trail to the vicinity of
Ovid when all trace of him was lost
for the time being.
Mr.. Tutt has reputation as a
detective, and achieved considerable
fame in working up the Wyandotte
train wrecking case. The arrest OF
tie party guilty of last nights
shooting will doubtless soon be
effected, and the punishment should
be proportioned to the enormity O
the crime. It is the opinion of th'
detective that the shot was aimed a
the coach, but at no particular per
son, the shooting of the passenge
on the platform in a measure &C
cidental. In the hurry and excite
ment of the moment, the name o
the wounded man was not learned
The shot entered near the groin an
the full extent of his injury is nc
5 yet known.-R. H. Review, Feb. 2!

THE LEGISLATURE.

It seems to be generally agreed that the
legislature will adjourl on, or before the
10th of March. 1t now has before it the
raj appropriation bill, which appropri-
ates $50. eco n ore ha the last appropria-
ton bill.
Both houses have passe the bill abolish
ing the local examinations of applicants
ny members of the State Board of Medical
Examiners; requiring all applicants for
license to practice medicine 10 be examin-
ed by the State Board, and substituting a
State Board of FIVE members to be appoin-
ted by The Governor.
The probabilities seem to be that the
Railroad bill; the amended mechanics
lien bill; the bill about the employment of
children in manufactures; the Labor
Bureau bill; and the soldiers, widows,
and orphans pension bill. will fail of pas
sage in the Senate.

W. W. Corcoran, the Philanthropist,
after giving long life for the benefit OF
his fellow men, passed away peacefully
and without pain at his home in Washing
ton, last Friday. TO the memory OF
man who in busy life which lasted nine
ty years had given for every year of his
life $50, 900 in charity to his fellow men,
words of eulogy are superfuous. The man
tEat has for nine ETY. years given at the rate
of ST. 900 week in judicious charities and
has not waited for his own death to remem-
Der the helpless of his kind, has written
his own epitaph. It is somewhat remark
able that that other great philanthropist.
George Peabody, was in youth business
partner of Mr.. Corcoran and that they
were unfortunate in business and broke.
The first then went to England, and the
second by boldly taking the American
loan for the Mexican war, became mil
lionaire. Mr.. Colcoran was firm and
true friend of Virginia aud Virginians,
| and of the SIS 5000 that he gave away
in his life, he gave $150.000 to Virginia
colleges. Among his minor charities is
the organ in the chapel of the W. l.. Asy-
lum here. which he gave many years ago.
Resolutions IN his honor were adopted by
| the U. S. House of representatives, the
| Virginia legislature, the Boards of the
| University of Virginia, and Washington
| & Lee University. AT his funeral, which
like his life was private and unostenta-
tious, the great Of the land were present,
and at the head of the coffin stood the
! wife of the President of the Nation. Mr.
Corcoran left fortune of S. 900 900,
in which many of his favorlte charities
were further remem bered, and the re-
mainder goes to his grandchildren.
