At Louisville, in number SS La

been notorious for the crimes com
mittcd in il and for the vice ii has
fostered for years. was the scene, at :
o'clock Thursday morning, Of hor-
rible double tragedy, Police Officers
Jos Rosenberg and James w. Jones,
while attempting to make an arrest,
were both stabbed TO death by Charles
Dilgcr, formerly private policeman
and watchman at the Buckingham
Theatre and general bad character
about town. Officer Jones was stab
bed in the forehead, the knife pene-
trating the skull to the brain, and in
the heart. He was dead before the
other officers reached the scene. Of
ficer Rosenberg was stabbed through
the skull in the right temple and
was dying when found. Dilgcr was
beating his mistress, and the officers,
attracted by her cries, broke into the
house and attempted 10 arrest the
tough with the fatal result stated.
The murderer was jailed.

IN THE SWIM.

Judge Lucius Z. Little-who would
have suspected it of the Judge Pin u
letter from "Old Point" to the Owens
boro Messenger has the following to
say; Nothing, however, was newer
or more enjoyable than the sea bath
ing TO our wild wcsterncrs. You
have no idea what cross ii was ior
our fair fellow travellers to don a
dress that LETT their arms bare, whose
skirts struck them at the knees with
fearful clinging tendency when weD
and black stockings. The girls who
were "afraid" of the sea were suspect
cd of being afraid of the painful reve-
lationsa bathing costume might make.
But if it was wCul for the ladies TO in
dulge as aforesaid ii was infinitely more
awfullcr for us men folks. Our raim-
Ont consisted of Il no-armed flannel
shirt, striking one at the knee, leaV'
ing exposed 10 the gaze of a gainsay-
ing world the human hsndiwork from
thence down. But now it is perfect
ly astonishing how quick ono becomes
accustomed. Once in, the bathing is
just delicious, and you emerge with
an exceedingly bouyant feeling.
There is something more than imagi-
nation in the strong feeling of rejuv-
enation that follows the sea bath"
Another paragraph from the same
letter shows that the Judges fountain
of inspiration is not dry: "rhc crowd
taken as a whole averages well (the
majority are Kentuckians you see)
The number of handsome women

A proposition is under considera-
ton by the Democratic campaign
managers to arrange for joint dis
cussion of the tariff question by
Speaker Carlisle and Mr.. Blaine. 1t
is proposed to challenge Mr., Blaine
to meet Mr.. Carlisle and dispute the
question in alternate speeches in
twelve principal cities of the Union,
six to be named by Mr.. Blaine and
six by the Speaker. The opinion of
number of prominent Democratic
Congressman as to the advisabilitY
of such a course has been asked, and
there is very general approval"
The above is sent out from Wash
ington probably as "feeler."
Wouldn't it be battle of tho giants
though! Blaine and Carlisle-the
one dashing, bold, impulsive, bril-
liant orator; the other a cool, calcu-
lating, ponderous, irresistible logi-
cian-what fight they would make
In all the arts of magnetic oratory,
the trick of GESTURE and intonation,
the cunning. of pose and rhetoric,
the "winsomeness," 30 TO speak, OF
paint, powder and passion-in these
respects the plumed knight is the SUI
perjor. But when ii comes to clean
logic, unanswerable reasoning, the

tual grip-thc Kontuckian is the
master of the Maine man at every
point. The crowds would yell moro
with Blaine but think more with Car
Isle. The former would stir up en-
thusiasm, the latter would make sen
timeut.
In these celebrated contests BlaiGe'
frothy magnetism would be incom
parable TO Carlisle's pure intellectual
ity. The foam -fringed waves of tn,

On with the fight, we have moth

TWO WONDERS.

Joe Mulhattan is not ubiquitous,
and hence one or the other, or both
maybe, of the following incidents are
true. A scientist found in All Indian
mound, near Frankfort, o., Friday,
two gigantic skeletons clad in a Gu
rious armor, apparently of bronze.
1t covered the chest, stomach and
legs, and a narrow band was around
its forehead. Various devices were
rudely worked on the armor. There
were no shields and only two small
knives. Archaologists are puzzltd
at the discovery.
Sometime since a treasure was
found in sink on the battlefield al
Murfreesboro, Tenn. Since then the
sink has been Investigated and proves
TO be large cave 20 feet in width
48 in length, and from Z to Is in
height, from bottom to top. There
were found several army revolveri
and muskets, gold toothpick and
locket, and an officers sword and belt
On a closer investigation, the bod,
of man was found in state of alb
solute petrifaction. But the weigh
of the body and the narrow passage
from the sink to the cave, caused by
a falling stone, precluded all posi-
billity of extricating the same until
blast is made. There is great excite
ment here over the finding of th'
treasure and the petritledbody of
human being, and the negroes of th,
immediate vicinity are great.
