Clutches.

CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-A Fort Wayne.
special says: Yesterday afternoon Dr.;
VIM. H. Myers, one of the first sur
geons of the state, tested the Brown
Sequard elixir on Michael Kenny, Of
Columbia City.
The patient was so seriously affected

to walk without the aid of crutches. In
less than an hour, through the:
stimulating effects of the treatment,
Kenny threw away his cructches and
walked off.
DR.. Myers has had no faith what
ever in the panacea, but in answer to
a question he remarked: ~ can only

A Denial OF the TillmEn Ticket.

A gentleman who was present at the
Pendleton Agricultural meeting when
it was alleged that B. r. Tillman was
slated for Governor and Captain G. w.
Shell for Secretary of State, tells The
Greenville News that there was no
foundation for the rumor. He was
present at Major Norris house when it
is alleged that the stating took place,
but no political matters were discussed
by those present. They talked pleas
antly about matters agricultural and on
the bright prospects for the Agricultural
College. He expressed the opinion
that had the correspondent in question
been present he would have learned to
be better farmer but not a wiser pol
itician. The gentleman added, how
ever, that the Farmers Association
would be heard from before the next
election.

A SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY.
Judge Terry Shot Dead for slappine Justice
Fields Face.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. l4.-Ex7Judge
David S. Terry was shot and killed by
Deputy United States Marshall. David
Nagle at the breakfast table in the
depot hotel at Lathrop this morning.
The shooting was caused by an assault
made by Terry upon Justice Field, of
the United States Supreme Court.
LATHRoP, CAL, Aug. 14.-Upon the
arrival of the Southern overland train
here at 7.s0 o'clock this morning
United States Supreme Court Judge
Field and Deputy United States Mar
shall David Nagle walked into the de-
pot dining room for breakfast and sat
down side by side. Soon after. Judge
David S. Terry aud wife, formerly Sarah
Althea Hill, came in. They were pro-
ceeding to another table when Mrs.
Terry, evidently recognizing Judge
Field, did not sit down but retired to
the train for some unknown purpose.
Before she reached it, however, and as
soon as she had left the dining room,
Judge Terry approached Justice Field
and STOPPING over him slapped his face.
At this junction Deputy Marshal
Nagle arose from his seat and shot
Judge Terry through. his heart. AS he
was falling the Deputy Marshal fired
again but missed him, the bullet going
through the floor. The shots were
fired in very quick succession. The
Judge never uttered sound after the
firing of the shot. He had hardly, fal-
len when Mrs. Terry rushed to the side
of his body and threw herself upon it.
Then ensued scene of the widest ex-
element. People rushed from the din
ing room and others rushed in. During
this time Justice Field and Deputy
Marshal Nagle retreated to the sleep
ing car where they were securely lock-
ed within. At times Mrs. Terry would
call upon citizens to arrest them before
the train pulled out Constable Wal
ker entered the sleeper and was carried
away on board the train. He inform
ed the crowd that he knew his duty
and would perform it. During: the
time the train was standing at the de.
pot Mrs. Terry was wildly running al.
ternately from the body Of her husband
to the sleeper, demanding admittance
that she might slap Justice Fields face,
and at the same time begging that they
be detained and have their examina;
tion here. Previous to the entrance o,
Constable Walker into the sleeper
Sheriff Purvis and a deputy. of Stan
islaus County, had already taken
charge of Deputy United States Mar
shall Nagle.

boats have been watched. All this
time Detective Norris was cavorting
around the country, and newspapers
were full of reports about bis doings.
The Baltimore police, however, laid
low, and finally were successful. Mar
shall Frey is perfectly satisfied with the
legality of Kilrain's arrest and said:
u have had many illegal papers
thrust at me, but would not touch any
of them until I got warrant direct
from Governor Jackson. Then l got
to work. Then you see if the papers
were in the least faulty, Kilrain's arrest
would be illegal, and be could get his
release on habeas corpus, but every
thing is perfectly straight. There is no
case against him in this State, and all
we had to do was to arrest him on
reouisition from another State"
The latest developments are to the
effect that KiIrain will do nothing here,
but will go to Mississippi and make his
fight before the Courts Of that State.
He will certainly leave Baltimore to-
night.
THE TRIAL AT PURVIS.
PURvIs, Mss, August 14.-Indict-
menrs have been presented to the Court
against Sullivan and Fitzpatrick. It
is understood that kilrain and his Sec
onds have also been indicted. The
grand jury is still in session.
The Indictment against Sullivan
charges him with having, by previous
arrangement, engaged in prize fight
with Jake Kilrain for large sum of
money. The indictment names six
grand jurymen who were at the fight
as witnesses. Indictments were also
brought against Referee Fitzpatrick,
Kilrain, Muldoon, Cleary and Dono-
van. 1t is saiG that the Governor is
now inclined to take lenient view Of
the case and to consider Sullivan as
less blamabIe than other members of
the party.
At the afternoon session at the Court
the attorneys for the defence submitted
q plea in abatement, maintaining that
the Court has no jurisdiction because
the case was already before justice Of
the peace on sheriff's affidavit identi-
cal with the charge in the Indictment !;
that the grand jury refused to find all
Indictment until the Judges charge
forced it to bring one against its~will,
and that the second count was upon a
different charge from that upon which
he was extradicted. Deputy Sheriff
Childs, who captured Sullivan, left for
Baltimore tonight to bring Kilrain
here.

The emotional life of, the horse is re-
nlarkable' There are instances ON
record where the death Of the horse has
been traced directly to grief. One in
stance is called to mind which occurred
more than twenty years ago. A circus
had been performing in the little town
of Unionville, Pa, when one Of the
trained horses sprained ore Of his legs
so that he could not travel. He was
taken to the hotel and put in box
stall. The leg was bandaged and he
was made as comfortable as possible.
He ate his food and was apparently
contented until about midnight, when
-, circus began moving out of town
Then ne became restless and tramped
and whined. AS the caravan moved
past the hotel he seemed to realize that
he was being deserted and his anxiety
and distress became pitiful. He would
stand with his ears pricked in an atti-
tude of intense listening, and then, as
his ears caught the sounds of the retir
ing wagons, he would rush as best he
could with his injured leg from one side
of the stall to the other, pushing at the
door with his nose and making every
effort to escape.
The stableman, who was stranger
to him, tried to sooth him. He would
not be comforted. Long afterall sounds
of the circus had ceased his agitation
continued. The sweat poured from him
in streams and he quivered in every
part of his body. Finally the stableman
went to the house. woke up the pro-
prietor and told him he believed the
horse would die if some of the circus
horses were not brought back to keep
