his mind that he would not hear any sweeter

from the tuneful throat of the little bird.
Day by day passes thus in the old-fashioned

guardian free of all care, and giving himself
up to the whims and emotions of an eccentric

inspiration moves him with his captivating

blind chase after the beautiful but unseen

TATE'S EMBEZZLEMENT.
The Grand Jury Faiis to Find Forgery on
the Books.


LOUISVILLE, KY, June 2S.--The grand jury
OF Franklin circuit court returned four indict-
ments against James w. Tate, late state treas
urer, for embezzement. The total amount
set out in acknowledgements is $40i ,0S5.S5, datiug
from January |, 1875 TO January l. 1886, leav-
ing the period between 1886 and the time of
Tate's flight unprovided for. The common
wealths attorney says no true bill could be
found against Tate for forgery in the erasure
of amounts in his bank pass book; that the
bank book was his private property and only
memorandum book, and that while the erasure
was made to perpetrate fraud on the investi-
eating officers, still it cannot now be called
forgery. The embezzlement is not an extra
ditable crime, and as it is now known that the
family of Tate are in communication with
him, it is supposed they will soon entertain no
fears of making his whereabouts known. The
court fixed bail at $4,000. The statutes pro-
vide imprisonment i'll the penitentiary from
one to ten years for emboZzlement, but 1t is
hardly possible the fugitive will ever return to
tho state to be brought to trial. Civil suits by
the commonwealth against the sureties on
bonds are again before the court on an
amended petition, but no trial can be reached
until the next October term.

johnson, in course of time, secured divorce
and Alexander and Mrs. johnson, on learning
this fact, state that they had marriage cere-
mony performed, but no proof of that has yet
been offered. Alexander, hearing of the charge
against him of forgery, returned here in COM
pany with Mrs. Johnson to meet, and, as he
hoped, disprove it.
In this he was unsuccessful, snd today he
was sentenced to two years In tho peniten-
tiary. johnson was a witness in the case, and
during the trial showed, on more than one oc-
casion, that he was laboring under strong
excitement Tonight he met his faithless wife
in front of the brunswick hotel, and drawing
q revolver fred three shots at her. One of the
balls took effect near the base of the spinal
column, intlicting wound that will likely
prove fatal. He then turned the weapon upon
himself and sent ball through his breast,
which penetrated the lungs and will probably
cause his death. A stray bullet struck a
stranger named Long, travelling man, infliot-
ing flesh wound.
