A FATAL QUARREL OVER CARDS.
PETER b. SMITH SHOT AND KILLED
AT NASHVILLE BY JEFFER.
SON ADAIR.

NASHVILLE, VA, March r.
Eastvllle and the adjacent country
was much excited and greatly
shocked this morning when it be-
came known that during last night
Jefferson Adalr, a resident OF
OnancOck, had shot and instantly
killed Peter b. Smith, highly
respected and well.KnOwn farmer,
residing just outside the limits OF
this town. the facts, as far as
ascertained, are az follows: Some
time during the night Adair and
Smith went to a well-knowu place in
Eastyille and joined in a game OF
cards which was in progress.
Everything ran along smoothly
until late hour, when the effects
of liquor were felt. Finally Adalr
picked up the cards and dealt the
hands around. Smith received
three "jacks' and Adar three
"queens." Betting became lively
and "call" was made. The hands
being shown, Smith pulled in the
pile of money that was upon the
table, remarking that Adalr had
cheated in the deal. Smith was
entirely deaf, but was made to un-
derstand by signs by Adair that he
must give up the money. Smith
refused, saying he would not be
cheated by anybody out of his
money. Then Adalr jumped up,
drew a pistol and fired, the ball
entering just below Smiths right
eye and entering the brain, causing
instant death. Smith died as he
sat IN his chair. Adalr was i'm
mediately placed urder a strong
guard, and afterwards lodged in
Jail. The deceased was son of
the late DR.. w. G.. Smith and
served in the Confederate army,
being at one time a member of
Otey's Battery He leaves wife
and six children, most of them
grown. He was we'll known
throughout the eastern part Of
Virginia and IN Baltimore and
Philadelphia, where he has many
friends and acquaintance.
A jury of inquest was held this
afternoon. After the testimony in
the case had been heard the jury
rendered a verdict "that Peter Il.
Smith came to his death by pistol
bullet fired from a pistol in the
hands of Jefferson Adalr, and
fired by said Adair without any
provOcatiOn." After the rendering
of the verdict Adair was brought
into court for preliminary hear
ing, but he waived an examination
and was committed to Jail for the
action of the grand jury. The
prisoner expressed great sorrow
for his act aud attributed it to the
effect of liquor.
Jefferson Affair has been en-
ployed for the past year as clerk in
Col. Benz. T. Parker's Grand
Central Hotel. OnancOck, and is
the only surviving son Of the late
John W. Adair, of Accomac Court
House, formerly one OF the best
known hotel proprie'ors on the
Eastern Shore of Virginia.

Death of Ericsson.

NEW YORK, March S.-John
Ericsson, the great engineer, died
at his home, 36 Beach street, this
city, late last night, OF cystitls, IN
his eighty-sixtb year.
lie was born III Sweden and came
to this country in 1880. His most
noteworthy achievement was build
ing the Monitor. Ericsson was one
of a family of engineers, his broth
er Nils and his nephews having all
gained renown in Europe by the
originality Of their engineering
feats. Capt. Ericsson, at the age
OF ten years, constructed a NINA
ture saw-mill and pumping ma
chine that attracted great attention
in Sweden at the time. At the age
OF seventeen he entered the
Sw cdish army az an ensign, and
rapidly received promotion for in
genulty displayed in getting up
plans of Notifications and maps.
During bis early manhood he was
to Europe what Eddison is to
America. lie invented within three
years forty different mechanical con-
trivances, twO-thirds Of which were
patented. IN 1889 Ericsson came
to America and in 1S4l began to
build the Princetou,the first naval
vessel that carried her machinery
under her water line out of reach
of hostile shot. This vessel dc
tated reconstructiOns TO the fleets
of the world. In 1861 Ericsson
built a monitor, completing her III
one hundred days from the laying
of the keeI-plate. She arrived in
Hampton Roads Just in time to de-
feat in March, 1862, the COnfeder-
ate iron clad Merrimac, which had
destroyed the Union frigates Con
gress and Cumberland, and was
about to sink or disperse the rest
of the Governments wooden fleet.
But for the monitors the whole face !
of the war might hayo been
changed and European interference |
attempted.

An Extensive Strika.

FALL RIVER, MASS, March IL.
The weavers' strike tor an adj
vance in wages, which occurred
this morning, is one of the most
general in the history OF labor
troubles here. The weaving de-
partments OF fifty mills are prActl.
cally shut down, and six thousand
weavers are idle. Those who re.
fused to strike do not number
more than half enough to keep one
mill going.
The extent of the strike is quite a
surprise to the managers, who ex-
pected that only "A few mills would
be involved. They thought the
help would be so much Owed be so
much divided as TO the wisdom OF
the strike at present that this
circumstance would disorganlze the
movement in a few days. The
operatives are very much pleased
at the unanimous sentiment Of re-
sistance displayed, and predict an
early victory. They claim that
they can afford to maintain a strike
tor several weeks.
1t is the Impression that the
manufacturers can give the ad-
vance at the present prices for
cloth, and can i'll afford to curtall
the production tor even short
period. The board Of trade says,
however, that no advance will be
given and u bitter struggle Is
anticipated.

A METHODIST UNIVERSITY TX
UTAH.
THE INSTITUTION TO BE BUILT AT
OGDEN-A GIFT OF LAND
PROM THE CITY,

SALT LAKE CITY, March A.
Methodists all over the country
Will be interested in the founding
of "A first.cass Methodist Univer.
sity IN the heart of the Mormon
Territory. For some time there
was doubt as to the exact location
that would be chosen, Provo, Salt
Lake and Ogden entering into
lively competition for the home
The committee, headed by Bishop
Warren, has finally decl led, by
what is practically unanimous
veto, to establish the university at
Ogden. Perhaps the recent vic
tory of the -MOTmOns at the
polls there had something to do
with this choice. Ogden being the
only town in the Territory of any
consequence, except the mining
town of Park City, that is free from
the dictatiOn of the Mormon
hierarchy.
But Ogden Is in every way de-
serving OF the honor thus bestowed,
and 1t does not require q vivid
Imagination to picture the CITY in
the near future the capital Of
Liberalism in Utah. The premium
offered by citizens of Ogden
amounts to over $4,000 in cash
and an equal sum III land which Is
increasing in price rapidly. These
gifts with others from both within
and without the Territory will
start the university on "a good
basis, and there is every reason to
believe that it will play an i'm
portant part in moulding the future
of the Territory.
There is singular tact with re-
gard to the Mormons which has
been noticed by all the ministers
of other denominations who have
labOrtd here. That is, the ten.
dency of such Morm0ns as leave
their own church to keep away
from other churches. The con.
gTcgatlOns Of the several denOmi-
nations now represented here can
not boast among their membership
many men or women who have
been identified with the Mormon
Church, because, as a general rule,
the Mormon who deserts his COM
munion, becomes either an atheist
or a free.thinker, and will not
again subEit to the discipline of
creed. The work which is being
done by the missionaries is that
among the young, aud for this
reason the university will be a
great help in continuing the educa-
ton of young MOrmOns who have
been partially trained in the
mission schools.

preston upon the elder genera

labored long and faithfully here,
shut we can help the young, and
have already done much IN that

A Sailors Report from Samoa.

Michael Sullivan, a sailor from
the L. :. man.Of war Adams, ar
rived in New York Yesterday, and
brings considerable intelligence OF
the Samoan difficulties. He came
overland from San Francisco, leay.
ing Samoa Islands int he latter part
OF January. Sullivan says that
from the moment the Adams ar.
rived at Samoa her decks were
cleared for action, but that she
was not called upon to fire a shot
during her stay. Up to the time Of
the vessels departure only one dis
turbance had occurred, and that
was fight between the natives OF
not much cOnsequ 9nce. The Ger
man gunboat Eber was stationed
at Samoa while the Adams was
there, and her commander assured
Capt. Camp, of the Adams, that the
crew OF he Eber cherished the
most friendly feelings for the
American seamen, and he hoped
and believed that no hOstlllties
would ensue. In the movements
Of the respective vessels around
the island the American man-Of.
war followed In the wake of the
Eber, and British gunboat
brought up the rear, the vessels
travelling alta distance of about a
mile apart. The natives of the
island, Sullivan said, were very
fond of Americans, and al most to
man were in favor of Yankee
rule. An instance of the naive
feeling was illustrated during the
stay of the American and German
vessels. The Adams had scarcely
come to anchor when Chief Hasse,
accompanied by his daughter, the
champion dancer Of the island, and
twenty female and fifty male ma.
tives, boarded the man-Ofwar and
danced and sang tor the amuse-
ment of the sailors. An invitation
from the EbeI's commander to do
likewise on the German vessel,

flsal, the chief saying tba: be

The latter grew excited and struck
the other man 10 the face with his
fist. The audience became greatly

French Tourists Massacred.

CHEYENNE, WYO., March TO-
\ hslf-breed hunter and trapper
who arrived here to-day reports the
atrOclOus massacre of a party Of five
French tourists in Yellowstone
National Park. The bearer of the
news heard the story at Canyon
City, a new mining town near the
park, where Hank Ferry, the guide
and sole survivor, reported the
slaughter.
Ferry said his charges included
NJ. Leclaire and wife, j. Vincent
and wife and Pau Gerst, father of
Mrs. Vincent. The strangers were
very wealthy, and said they had
journeyed overland from San Fran
cisco for the express purpose of go
ing through he park during the
absense OF the horde of Summer ex-
cursiOnists.
The massacre was by Indians.
They killed old Gerst first as the
sun was rising. No body contained
less than ten bullets, and the body
