THE THURMAN MOVEMENT.
It's inside History Laid Bare, and IL
Makes Interesting Heading.

Makes Interesting Heading.
ST. LOUIS, June The inside history OF
the Thurman movement can now be told
1t was devised by Cleveland and Scott to-
gether several weeks ago. The need Of
some name on the ticket which would give
itsome buoyancy and which would attract
the cid line Democrats whose enthusiasm
Cleveland has failed to excite was con
fessea and Thurman was fixed upon.
Knowing that there had always been very
strong opposition to Thurman on the part
of the dominant Democratic faction in
Ohio. now represented Ia the Senate by
Henry B. Payne. 1t was sought to reach IL
through Secretary Whitney, son-in-law
OF Payne. Whitney consented
After that 1t was necessary to get some
thing from Thurman himself on the sub
ject, and Solicitor General jerks was sent
TO Columbus as the representative OF the
President 10 see Thurman and learn some,
thing Of his own fesling on the subject.
Thurman, who Is 10 such physical iuflrmity
as to be unable to leave his
house for several days nt time,
had previously seen the matter sug-
gested 10 the newspapers, and had said for
publication that he could not possibly con
sent ID any such use Of his name. He was
greatly surprised when Mr.. jerks presented
the Presidents request, but after the
ground had been thoroughly gone over he
yielded even more than had been expected,
for Jents returned so Washington with
Thurman's assurance that he would run IL
nominated.
The greatest caution has been used to
keep the hand OF the administration In the
matter covered. But that is no longer pos
sible. Scott has been much more discreet
and skillful than ever before In a political
movement. He has refused 10 say that
Clevelandwanted Thurman but he has been
driven intoa corner In one or two instances
One OF these was the case Of Senator Cor
man, who was against Thurman on Satur-
day substantially put his delegation on
record that way. Scott saw that German
was too important IN have drifting In that
manner, and German, almost alone among
the favored ones. got the tip and has since
acted upon It, not being willing as he hes
said. to antagonizs the administration in
such matter
The effect OF all this upon the Indiana
supporters of Gray has been marked.
They are keeping up heroic fight but
they are mad enough that the administra-
tion should have dragged Thurman into
the field after Gray had been candidate
for months. and 1t was presumed
that Indiana would be accorded her
usual distinction OF furnishing the
man for the second place All sorts OF
threats are made. the most horrible being
that after what has been done Cleveland
cannot carry Indiana, and nobody expects
him 20 carry OHIO. The ugliuess
is not confined to the Indiana
men, but IL breaks out among
some or the Southerners aud everywhere,
even among delegates who will sup.
port Thurman, the movement is denounced
as practical bluuder. Those who are
committing this blunder have already be-
gun 20 excuse IT. They say it is true that
Thurman Is old and inirm. but, as Scott
hrntaily puts It, 'it he lives through the
campaign It will be euough.n

G. Cummins and David J. Cummins
at is found that the prospect for
71Aaches is very favorable. Tue trees
are full and are of fair size. But
throughout the various orchards, and
one orchard in particular, it was no.
ticed that the leaves had begun to fail
and the trees presented an unhealthy
appearance. Many attribute this un-
favorable change either to the fact that
the orchards were ploughed when wet,
or that the trees were diseased when
purchased.
Last Thursday the State Capital nine
of Dover, defeated the Junior nine Of
Smyrna by score Of II to s. A nine
of Townsend met with disastrous De
feat at the hands Of the Smyrna nine.
The score was 27 to 0. During the first
three innings neither club made run.
The Smyrna battery consisted of
Charles Barnes p and Charles Whar-
ton, c. TheTovnsend nine were some
what embarrassed, not being familiar
with the rules. The Townsend nine
possesses some very good material.
About 200 persons witnessed the game.
John Bailey has had a fiue office

AN OLD GUN THAT WAS :sNO GOOD -
Its Metal Proved by Fifteen Coons and
Human Life.
Franklin Sun.1

lFranklln SUM-
On last Saturday afternoon at about
A O'Clock the citizens of the Big Creek
settlement were Mortified to hear that
James NJ. Haddox aged 10, had been
shot and instantly killed by Allen Ea-
ton aged 25.
The circumstances of the killing are
as follows: 1t appears that some OF the
young men had started to play base
ball, but, on account Of death in the
ueig hborhood, the game was postponed,
and all left for home. When at the
Adams place, some OF them stopped at
the cabin of negro named Dave Ball.
While chatting, Eaton remarked that
he had killed Is coons the eight previ-
Gus. Haddox laughingIy asked him
whether he had killed them with the
old gun he had with him. HWhy, said
he, you couldn't hit me at twenty
steps with that old thing" "Step off
the ground and I'll show YOU" answer
ed Eaton. Young Haddox started to
walk the 90 steps and as he went some
one remarked "You amt going to
shoot him, Allen:" Eaton answered,
81 surely WILL" or words to that effect.
AS Haddox turned round he called out
laughing, "YOu amt going to shoot
sure enough % AT that moment the
gun fired and Haddox fell covered with
shot-the entire load having passed
through his breast and lungs. They
carried him to the gallery, Eaton help
ing, and when in few minutes, life
was extinct, Eaton mounted his horse
and took to the woods.
The citizens OF the neighborhood or.
ganized as soon as possible and hunted
the woods all Saturday night withou,
success. Sunday Sheriff Womble and
posse continued the search but with.
out success up to this writing and Ea'
ton is still at large.
Eaton claims that the shooting was
accidentai-he and young Haddox be.
ing intimate friends. BE this as it may,
all good citizens want the matter thor
oughiy investigated. 1fhe be innocent,
he should at once give up to the author.
tiles and stand trial. If guilty (and
he certainly is, of gross carelessness at
least, justice demands that he be pun>
