the last shot, and the shot ranged up
according to my judgement.
The bottle found near deceased
was small BEETLE and was marked
';nk."
CROSS EXAMINATION
The bottle seemed to have been
dropped while deceased was running
We also found bunch OF keys that
had dropped from deceased's pocket.
Defendant said "The bottle may be
poison" and called our attention to
it. Defendant said at Dover, that
/ we would find the pistol by his side
and the money in his vest pocket,
If he had not been tempered. | can
explain the ground by the diagram
here presented. There were some
shot found in a pine stump to the
right of where deceased's body lay,
and on line with the direction from
which defendant fired. The place
where the deceased was found is
about three miles south west of Do
yer and about 400 yards from the
county road running from Dover to
the John Battenfield Ford, on the
Illinois bayou. The direction from
the county road to where deceased
lay, was north west and near q road
running from the county road to de-
fendants house. In my Judgment,
when deceased wac last shot he was
lying down on his back. The pis-
toll was here produced and identified
by witness.

TENNESSEE has enrolled itself in
the list of States that have adopted
the Australian ballot-reform system.
The republicans in the legislature
fought the measure desperately, but
the Democrats had enough votes to
enact into law.-St. Louis Republic.
Notwithstanding the great hue
and cry on the part of republicans
for SO free ballot and fair count"
the fact remains that in every in
stance where an effort has been
made to perfect the ballot system it
has met the sturdy opposition of the
republicans. This illustrates the
difference between precept and prsc-
tice on the part Of our friends-the
enemy.

Twenty Pieces OF Bone.

My little neice, left by her mother,
had one Of the worst cases of white
swelling l ever saw. More than
twenty pieces of bone came out of
her leg, one piece being about the
size of the small end of walking
cane, and nearly three inches long.
The hole left by taking these pieces
out was as large as a GOOD sized wal
nut She was not able to walk a
step for eight months, and was after
wards compelled to use crutches for
nearly year. The doctors said
where was no cure, and advised am

HONEST METHODS.

The 6o-Called Waste Curled by Ma
chinery on Purpose to Evade Tariff
Charges-The Article Of Fine Quality
and Selling in This Country for
Good Price.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Sat the wool
growers convention to-day the National
Wool Growers Association Of the United
States was reorganized by the adoption OF
constitution and the election OF the fol-
lowing officers to serve one year: Columbus
Delano Of Ohio. president; ]. T. Rich OF
Michigan, vice president; C. H. Beall OK
West Virginia, treasurer; George II. Wal
lace of Missouri, secretary; Davis Cossitt
or New York, assistant secretary. X. N.
Bissell OF Vermont, w. l. Black Of Texas.
and John Mcdowell of Pennsylvania were
elected to act with the officers of the asso-
citation as an executive board.
THE ADDRESS NOT READY YET.
The committee appointed to draft an ad-
dress TO the wool growers of the United States
having reported to the convention that it
required additional time in which to pre-
pare an address, a resolution was adopted
granting further zine, and authorizing the
executive board to revise and publish the
same at its earliest co lvenience. All matters
pertaining to legislation were, by resolution.
referred TO committee to be hereafter dee
ignated by the President.
UNDERvALUATIoN OF RING WASTE.
One Of the principal subjects Of discus
sion to-day was the differentiation Of So
called ring waste. 1t was shown that during
the last year the importation of this So
called waste equaled the entire wool clip Of
either Ohio or Texas; that It is superior
for nearly all wool manufacturing purposes
to the finest secured wool ia this country,
and yet, 10 was said, 10 paid a duty of only
ten cents pound, when it should have paid.
upon proper and just classification, from 30
to 60 cents per pound.
LAST YEARS IMPORTATION.
1t was stated that last year about
$4,000, 900 pounds of this wool was inn
ported, principally from Bradford, England.
and sold In the markets of this country at
from 90 to 05 cents pound, while IN the
same markets fine secured California wool
sold at 55 cents per pound Quotations
from the Philadelphia market were read i'm
support Of this assertion. 1t was also stated
that this fine grade wool was manipulated
by machinery before shipment, especially
constructed, Co coil it into small rings in
imitation OF waste, for the sole purpose of
evading the law and avoiding the payment
OF just customs duties.
A PROTEST TO WINDOW.
A committee consisting Of Messrs. Law
renee, Mcdowell, Harpster, Cossitt and
Wallace, waited upon Secretary Window
this afternoon and protested against the
admission of this so-called waste at a rate
less than is charged upon the wool
scheduled as partly manufactured WOOL
The secretary stated to the committee that
he was then engaged in thorough in
vestigation OF this subject, and he assured
them that full justice would be done the
wool-growing interests of the United States

vIRGINIA's VOTE.

the Returns from Scott County Nooi
Secured Yet
RICHMOND, Dec. SO W ing to the absence
of the Scott county returns, the legislature
failed TO announce the vote cast for gov--
ernor and lieutenant governor in November,
and will not do 80 until the Scott county
returns are received. The vote as tabu-
lated, however (Scott county omitted is
as follows: Governor, Mckinney, 162, ,654;
Malone, 120,477. Lieutenant governor,
Scott, 162,05l; Slemp, 1850; for gov
ernor, Taylor, prob. S97; for Lieutenant
governor, Shelburnel pro-, 963. As will
be observed from the above figures, Malone
ran ahead of bis ticket, instead of behind.
as generally surmised.
A resolution was passed In joint session
to-day directing the sergeant-at-arms of the
house OF delegates to proceed at once to
Scott county and summon the clerk Of that
county to appear before the legislature to
show cause why he should not be punished
for refusal to certify the vote cast at the
November election for governor and lieu
tenant governor, There is no precedent for
this case, and the result Is awaited with
great interest. The clerk Of the corpora
tion court of Alexandria having failed to
certify the result of the vote for Lieutenant
governor, the doorkeeper of the House was
ordered to proceed to said city for certil-
cation.
