The SHAFT Commemorating the Deeds OF
Confederate Dead Consecrated.
Special Dispatch to the Appeal.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 10 -Four
thousand people witnessed the unwilling
OF the Confederate monument in Mount
Olivet Cemetery this afternoon. The
weather was warm and clear and the pro.
gram had some interesting features. The
exercises were opened with prayer by the
Rev. David G. Kelley, ID, after which
Capt. George Guild delivered an address,
reviewing the service OF the Con-
federates. He was followed by DIR. w. j.
McMurray, who accepted the monument
from the Confederate Association in behalf
OF the boys who wore the gray. Col. John
Overton next addressed the assemblage,
and introduced Col. w. q. T. Breckenridge
OF Kentucky, the orator OF the day, who
spoke for an hour and thirty minutes
The monument was then unveiled by two
daughters OF Gen. b. f, Chatham amid
loud applause and the booming OF cannons.
Elder X. l.. Cave offered prayer, and the
graves OF the Confederate dead were dec,
grated.
The Rev. ]. II. McNeilly, ID, pro.
nounced the benediction, and the vast
throng, among whom were representatives
OF the various bivouacs in the State, dis.
persed.
The monument is forty.fve feet high
and cost $40, 500. The base is OF New Eng
land granite. and the whole is surinountcd
with marble figure representing a Con
fcdcrate soldier on guard.

A SERIOUS SHOOTING AFFRAY.

James r. Turner Perhaps MORALLY
Wounds Thomas II. Hoi,on.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. May lG.-This after.
noon James +. Turner shot and MORALLY
wounded T. A. TIolton, IN the Office OF
Justice Of the Peace \. X. $. Brown. It
appears that the firm Of which Ilolton was
a member had secured the issuing OF an
execution upon merchandise in Turner's
store. Turner replevied the merchandise
upon the ground that execution had been
issued for his individual debt and that he
simply conducted the store as agent. the
firm being Turner & Co. After doing this
he brought suit for damages. Under this
new phase OF the case tho trial was to
occur in Justice Browns Office this morn
ing, but when the hour arrived Judge
Quarles, Turner's lawyer. was not present,
having been called 10 the Criminal
Court. lilo had been in the
office, however, n few minutes pre-
yious. At this junclure tho situation
was discussed, but rather amicably, and
Justice Brown volunteered 20 20 himself
10 the courthouse and see Judge Quirlcs
This he did, aud returned with the inior-
nation that hc would continue the case
since Turner's lawyer would be unable on
account OF other legal engagements, 10 be
present Turner secured T.. T. Holman
and caina into the Office with the announce.
menl that he had secured another lawyer
and was ready for trial, but was told by
Justice Brown that the case had been con-
tinued aud that he was not at liberty 10 do
this for the reason that his lawyer was mol
there at the hour when the case was
called.
Eyes be was hcrc" replied Turner, be.
lraying anger aud excitement.
"ilo was not hero at 10 o'clock" said
EIollon very positively, and this ELECTED from
Turner the roiort, you are n id liar
When Turner used the language quoted
Ilolton blushed little, but with
remarkable coolncss, "You must take
that back" at tho same time walking
slowly towards the gate, which was open
In an instant Turner whipped from III,

us in the Derby. He was simply
outmatchod. Spokane may not be
able to ilirt his heels in the face of Proctor
Knott in the coming Chicago Derby, but
he certainly is today shoes to plates the
better of the two." The same writer
says: 1.-THE Clark stake has proved
a terrible disappointment, not because
Spokane won it, but because he
won in such hollow style. Ten thousand
people assembled to see the great Derby
battle fought over again, but they saw in
stead stupidity tamo contest, in which the
winner played with his field rs II they
were Il lot OF Brighton Beach crabs. There
is some excuse for Proctor Knots defeat
Of Thursday; there is mono to be offered
for that Of today. So long as he was in the
lead he ran like victor, secure in his
strength and confident OF his powers, but
the moment he was collared in the stretch
he quit like coward"
A PROMINENT gentleman, who boards at
the Peabody Hotel went into the Derby
pool room yesterday and named three
winners, all short horses, and Melted Sl2O

when informed Of his luck fastened back
