MR.. DoREY's RECITAL.
A Pronsuneed Musical Success at Christ
Church Last Night.

Church Last Night.
The organ recitals Of Mr.. Arthcy Dorey
are destined to become thoroughly popular.
The frst Of the series at Christ church last
night gave evidence of the music senti-
ment" which is rapidly growing in Spring
field, and the advent Of one whose ability Is
30 pronounced marks an epoch in the must
Gal history of Springfield. Much interest
has been manifested In this recital. being
the first of the series, and 1t Is very appar-
ent that Christ church Ii too small to meet
the requirements. Fully two hundred peo-
pie could not gain admittance and many
occupied standing room outside during the
performance.
The programme was admirably arranged.
beginning with Vincent's Overture In and
growing with brightness and spirit through
each succeeding number, reaching . most
satisfactory climax in the difficult and en-
chanting Festival March of Smart. Mr..
Dorey's work was thoroughly artistic
throughout, and readily imparts to others
the gift Of . delicate and refined concep-
tion-the many difficulties Of execution be-
ing entirely lost in the case which marks
his playing.
1t is hoped that frequent recitals will fol-
low, and general revival of music will
result

James G. Blaine.


Some doubt has been expressed as to the
wisdom of inaugurating Blaine boom in
In Ohio.
II certainly seems little late for q
movement of that sort at this stage of the
game, and we wouldn't advise even the
most sanguine admirers to give very heavy
odds on his nomination.
But people will bet, for as Josh Billings
says, "a man would rather win fifty cents
than earn two dollars honestly, $50 In max
ing your bets for new spring suit, just
bear in mind when settling up that you
can't do better than to call on Jason w.
Phillips, No. 80 east Main street, and ex-
anime his new line of spring suitings,
marked down in plain figures to the aston
isbingly low price Of $40.
Think Of 1t A perfect-fitting. custom
made Scotch Cheviot Suit for $40, and a
line Of IS trousers that can't be equaIed In
the city of Springfield. and the balance of
our stock marked down correspondingly
low.

TOPEKA, KAN, June 1S.-A telegram has
been received by Governor Martin from
Brigadier General Murray, informing him
Of the alarming state of affairs that exists
in Stevens county, on the frontier, caused
by railway bond election. The towns of
Woodsdale and Hugoton are located about
two miles apart, and bitter feeling has
always existed, growing out of county
seat right
A Telegram gives details of shooting
which occurred in Hugoton. r. L. Jones,
the deputy sheriff, who is a Woodsdale
man, the constable Of Woodsdale township.
and another officer, rode into Hugoton and
attempted to assassinate Sam Robinson and
J. B. Chamberlain, chairman of the Board
of County Commissioners. They pretended
to have warrants for the arrest of the
parties, but instead of serving the warrants
by the usual process they drew their
revolyers and opened fire upon the marshal
and the chairman of the board. The fire
was returned, and the attacking party re-
treated. One man was seriously wounded.
The inhabitants of both towns are now
armed to the teeth, and bloodshed may
follow

wouid.Be Murderer in Hoe.

LrXIsGTos, IND, June 13,-This place il
In the midst of social sensation. The
involved are we'll known people, and the
affair Is the talk Of the town. A few days
ago John Fitch, an employe at Getty's
Touring mills, circulated scandalous reports
about the wife Of Thomas James. These
stories reached the ears of Mr. James, who
armed himself with hickory club and o
revolver, and repaired to the residence of
his wifes traducer, where he found
Fitch asleep in bed. Walking up
to the couch he exclaimed in loud
tones that be had come to kill him, and
commanded him to get up. Frightened al
most to death Fitch obeyed, and at the
point of the pistol he was compelled to
march to James residence. When con-
fronted by Mrs. James he denied that he
had ever spoken derogatory of the charac-
ter of that lady. Mr.. James then sent his
wife, while he guarded his prisoner, to find
VIM. Cox, 10 whom it is said Fitch made
the remarks accredited to him. Cox refused
to meet Mr.. Fitch, and finally James per-
mitted him to go. Thus matters rested un-
til yesterday morning, when Fitch called at
Squire Green's office for the purpose of hav-
ing warrant issued for the arrest of james
asking the Court to place him under
bond to keep the peace. While the
warrant was being written James
came aloAg and called for Fitch to come
out When he appeared James again in
quired of him if he had made the remarks
concerning his wife above referred to.
Fitch replied that he had, and instantly
pulling weapon from his pocket fired at
James, the bullet just grazing his head.
James, who was also armed, drew his revol-
yer, but the weapon fell to pieces in his
hands. Constable J. r. Morgan at once
placed Fitch under arrest, and James fled
complaint against him, charging him
with assault and battery with intent to kill.
The case was Immediately tried, and Fitch
was recognized to the Circuit Court. which
is now in session. Failing to give bond he
was remanded to jail rr
