Wheat looks about as well as If it
had not been bitten by the last
freezes. Winter oats look well also.
Predictions are, as usual, that we
will not be able to set a full crop OF
tobacco, but of this we cannot speak
advisedly yet, though there is very
little said about it, and we are of the
opinion that some interest is being
lost every year in regard TO the cal-
ture of tobacco. There are few
'mossbacks," we reckon, in every
section who will raiseit, regardless OF
prices, who don't know how to plan
and pitch crop of anything else.
Our school is again in session after
the epidemic of measles, which was
thought to have passed until a few
days ago, when the disease broke out
at two distinct points. Though there
has been an unusual amount of sick
ness in our locality since Christmas.
and several very sick cases, there
have been no deaths, except one, dur
ing the time mentioned. In this we
can congratulate ourselves.

Evolution of the Horse.

It is curious that, while the horse and the
dog have come to be mans best friend in
Europe, the question of how the horse struc-
turally has come to be what it is, is taken as
one of the tests of the theory of evolution as
against the older theory of special creations,
Professor Huxley expressed some. years ago
his belief that, il fossil evidence we're forth
coming, we should find the specialized forms
of the horse allied to other specialized forms
that are far from being horses, but which
have descended from the same common an

describe were but beginning They have

Spring is fairly opening up at last ;

skurry and hustle in the race for

fairly begun, but will be by the Goth
if not hindered by the much needed
rain now falling. The cry of bugs
eating tobacco plants is again heard
in the land, and not without real
cause, either, we presume. Planters
have, as rule, been careless in cam
wasting their beds this time, either
depending upon cid and worn can

Ground is breaking badly this

REEDS EDUCATIONAL CONGRESS-.

Whatever may be said about an
educational campaign, Mr.. Reeds
congress is doing more just now to
convince the people that the tariff is
a tax, and very high, unreasonable
and unjust tax, than all the educa-
tlonal methods ever resorted to by
the Democrats. McKinley's schem-
ing exposes the deception on all
sides, making it plain that the tariff
is simply a lawful method of rob
bling one class of citizens to enrich
another; the fostering Of one indus
try at the expense of another, Great
ing great monopolies and disorgan-
izing and destroying our commercial
system. The kicking in the ranks of
the protectionists has become vigor-
Gus and powerful, and there is
trouble ahead for the leaders.

TWENTY YEARS AGO.
Reflections Called Forth by the Recent
Bar Meeting.
10 the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle.l

To the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle.l
This morning, while listening to
the eloquent tributes paid to our la
mented friend and fellow citizen, the
Hon. Charles G. Smith, whose death,
though looked for, has cast a gloom
over the whole country, was re-
minded of the many bar meetings
which ] had attended on similar oc-
casions within the past twenty years.
In 1870 the GAINESVILLE bar was
composed of G. A. Henry, j. E..
Bailey, John F. House, Jas. Quarles,
w. A. Quarles, Jacob Hornberger,
T. w. King, j. E. Rice, R. w.
Humphreys, II. H. Lurton, VIM.
Daniel, A. g. Goodlett, John Camp
bell, Robert Johnson, Baker ID.
Johnson, Ed. Lurton, II. M. Doak,
Willis Jackson, A. IL. Munford,
Polk G. Johnson, and our lamented
friend, Chas. g. Smith, and last, but
not least, Henry Merritt, making in
all twenty-five lawyers who were
then actively engaged in the prac-
tice of their profession, except that
Chas. G. Smith was our chancellor,
James e. Rice was judge of the Cir
cult court, and Thos. w. King was
judge of the Criminal court. Those
were flush times in the history of the
GAINESVILLE bar. Its members were,
as rule, men of the highest order
of intellect, who ranked with the
greatest lawyers, not only in the
State, but in the United States, and
this fact was so well known as to
give GAINESVILLE the name of "The
Hub"
Where are all these great men
now? OF the bar of 1870 there were
present to-day House, Quarles, Mer-
rift, II. III. Lurton, Daniel and Good
lett, being six of the original twenty
two. James Quarles is now MEM
Der of the Nashville bar, A. FL.
Munford is our Circuit court Judge
and was absent on official business.
Ii. M. Doak is clerk of the U. S.
court at Nashville; the other four
teen are dead. Only four of the
original twenty-five are now prac-
ticing their profession here, to-wit !:
Gen. Quarles, Col. House, H. G..
Merritt and VIM. Daniel. II. H.
Lurton is one of the judges of the
Supreme court, and, as before stated,
A. ii. MunfOrd Is on the bench of
Circuit court, James Quarles is at
Nashville, while A. G. Goodlett is
engaged in the breeding of trotting
horses near GAINESVILLE.
When will we have another meet
ing for similar purpose as that of
to-day's? 1t may be tomorrow; it
may be next week. Life is uncer-
tain. Death is certain and it may
come when we are not prepared for
it. 1t matters not how we have
clung to theories of infidelity and
Rugged those delusive ideas relating
to morality and religion, prepared
for us by the devil, we will then
want to look to the simple truths
taught us in our infancy by our
mothers, and in the agony of death
when surrounded, perhaps, by the
demons of hades, we may exclaim,
ooh that l had done His will and
learned His doctrine"

PITTsBURG, April 9-Western Penn
sylvania was visited by an unusual rain,
wind and electric storm this morning.
Great damage was done and at least two
lives were lost. In this city number of
houses were struck by lightning and sew
eral persons were stunned but not seri-
ously injured. The rain fell in torrents
for several hours, flooding cellars and
causing small streams to overflow. In
Westmoreland county great damage is
reported. For two hours rain fell in tor
rents and nearly all streams overaowed
their banks, washing away bridges,
fences and evarything that came in their
way. At Pam station number of fam
lilies were compelled to vacate their
houses and seek shelter on high ground.
Up in the Manor valley the greatest dam
age was done, as most of the bridges
along the streams we're carried away. At
Tyrone, the Juniatta is over it's banks,
and houses and lots are inundated and
the people have been compelled to move
to higher ground. In Cambria county
the rain storm was particularly severe.
The Conemaugh river and Stoney creek
are again high and the lower portions
OF Johnstown are under water.

JoHNsTowN, Pa. April "a large part

the highest point seems to have been
reached. Water has been running over
the banks of the Conemaugh ever since
noon, and the whole borough of Wood
vale is now flooded to depth of two to
four feet. About six o'clock water began
flowing into Market street from the
Co1emaugh, and as this point has been
filled up to height of about nine feet a
basin has been created, which is now fill
ing up.

Tuesdays Proceedings in the Fechet
Court Martial at Fort
Yates.
Different Parts of Ohio, Michigan
and Illinois Suffer by lorna
does and Hail Storms.
The Chicago Carpenters are Still on
Strike With Little Hopes for
Speedy Settlement.
The Fechet Court Martial.

Fort YATES, April 8.-[Special. ]-Pri-
vate Fox gave in his testimony in the
Fechet court martial to-day. He was
called by the prosecution and testified
that he had attended Fechet for several
days before the otfense was committed;
had a day previous furnished Fechet
with part of bottle of beer which he
drank. Acting Assistant Surgeon Decide
testified that he saw Fechet Immediately
before the Stanley court martial and
that he was suffering from too much
stimulants. Witness was positive Fechet
was drunk. Deeble is the first witness
to swear positively that Fechet was in
toxicated. During the direct examina-
ton counsel for defense was consider
ably nettled. Cross examination showed
some bitterness on part of witness
toward accused. Objections were made
and Counsel Crowder addressed the
court saying: II ask the greatest lati-
tude the law will permit in the cross ex-
animation of this witness, as we expect
to show that this witness is hostile and
prejudiced and that three weeks prior to
Fechet's arrest he threatened to open
upon him with view to having his COM
mission taken away that he had, after
being sworn as witness and directed by
the court not to hold conversation with
other witnesses, endeavored to induce a
witness to disclose the nature of his tes-
timony; that he was guilty of eavesdrop-
ping-tr1ed to listen to interview between
counsel for defense and a Witness that
he had prescribed liquor for the accused
with the deliberate purpose of getting
him too drunk to perform the court mar
tial duty in question. This created quite
sensation. Witness On further cross
examination denied that he was preiu-
diced. He was asked if he was not hos
| tile to accused because of having been
criticised by him for gambling with en-
listed men. He denied the charge, and
said the gambling referred to consisted
| in the throwing Of dice for watch with
sergeant. Deeble admitted, however
he had made threats regarding Fechet's
commission--the result of a dispute i'll
which Fechet threatened to pull his
! nose, and to which Deeble replied. "If
you do, with what I know about YOU, T
would not give much for your commits
! sion. Witness insisted he was on calling
terms with accused up to the time
| charges we're preferred. The prosecu-
ton rested, reserving right, however, to
recall Private Fox. The defense are con-
fident of breaking down Deeble's testi-
mony, in which event they say case has
not been made out. Witnesses will be
put on the stand tomorrow to prove
Deeble's hostility.

The CarpenterS' Strike.

CHICAGO, April S.-About fifty non
union carpenters from surrounding towns
went to work this morning, but they were
visited by strikers and labored with, the
result being that they quit work. The
struggle now seems narrowed down to the
question of recognition or non-recogni-
ton of the union. The carpenters de-
mand 40 cents per hour, eight hours as a
days work, and yearly settlement upon
a scale of wages by conference between
the builders and the carpenters union
The bosses are willing to concede the de-
mand for eight hours, and to pay 37H
cents per hour, which the men would ac-
cept as compromise, but the bosses ab-
solutely refuse to recognize the union,
and the men refuse to treat on any other
basis except it's recognition.
