Late last night. after all the prisoners
had gone to bed. Jailer Farraher made an
other search of Mcclure, the forger's, cell,
and was rewarded by finding the key with
which the clever law-breaker intended to
effect his liberty. McGuires cell is No. 8,
and in the top, running TO the roof, is a
small ventilator. The lailer was about
giving up the search when he happened to
look up and see something hanging in the
opening, about two feet from the mouth
Dislodging the object, heavy half-pound
lead key dropped to the floor from where
it had been hanging on wire, case knife
nicked until it made tirs;-rate saw, a
piece of steel spring, and several lengths of
heavy wire followed. A hook had been
made from the bail of molasses can, and,
being fastened up the ventiIator. boy who
is in the cell was made 10 thrust his slen-
der arm to the shoulder up the opening and
take down and hang up the implements. %
The key is lattering piece of mechan-
ical ingenuity. A wire was first stretched
out the required length, and around this
was pressed and hammered layers of to-
bacco lead until il was made the proper
shape and size. The work of making the
key must have occupied months. The
jailer found that Mcclure could have
opened every cell in the Jail, and had he
succeeded in cutting the corridor bars
twenty prisoners, among them i've muir
derers, would have escaped.

A sANGUINARY DUEL.
Georgia Neighbors Fight and Both

Receive Fatal Wounds.
From the Philadelphia Press.
ATLANTA, Oct. 90 "A desperate duel to
the death was fought near Danielsville.
Madison county. yesterday afternoon, In
which William Sanders, prominent
planter, was killed and William Martin, his
neighbor, was fatally wounded.
For some time there has been bad blood
between the men. Each has appeared in
court as a witness against the other. and
several times serious difficulties have taken
place between them
The trouble eliminated on Saturday.
Martin lives quarter of mile from San
ders, and is a tenant on the plantation Of
Sanders sons. Yesterday Sanders heard
shooting in the direction of Martins house,
and looking out saw his own hogs running
from Martins. He at once concluded that
Martin was shooting them, Martin having
been prosecuted upon a charge OF that kind
before. So Sanders took his gun and
started to Martins. When asked what
he meant by shooting at the hogs, Martin
said he would shoot him (Sanders), too.
if he bothered him, and the shooting be-
gan.
Martin emptied his double barreed gun
and i've shooter at Sanders Four shots
took effect, any one of which would have
been fatal. Sanders shot at Martin five
times, three from a pistol and two from a
gun. Three OF these took effect Martin
will die.
Sanders son was within fifteen feet of
him when he fell The son had called to

Hindoo Marriages.
From the London Spectator

What we are seeking is only an improve
ment In the marriage system of Hindoos
and to break up the Hindoo ecclesiastical
system for that purpose, while we legalize
and protect Mussulman polygamy, seems to
us doubtful justice. If widow who re-
marries, or father who keeps his daughter
unbetrothed, needs legal protection from
external violence, let them have iV in the
fullest measdre-the case, we believe, &C.
ours, the widow FORGETTING property she
ought to keep-but to prohibit ecclesiastical
pressure, or ecclesiastical protection Of the
temples against excommunicants, is outside
the legitimate function OF any government.
1t would be as hard to abolish Hindooism
as to prohibit accommodation, and not a
great deal more just An improvement Of
that kind-if 1t be an improvement, and for
our part we believe caste to be the anti
septic Of Hindoo society--must come from,
within when the time is ripe, not be forced
upon people from outside We should
not feel very benevolent, or very civilizei,
either, il millions Of Hindoos, declaring
that they could no longer protect their

Violins for Girls.

From the London Daily Ne,rs
The violin has now fairly taken its place
as an instrument for girls. The only ques-
tlou. indeed, seems to be whether it is de-
signed to supersede our old, but not invari-
ably welcome friend, the pianoforte, We
are reminded by an article from the pen of
Mr.. Joyce Barrett, in the Womdn's World.
that this is after all only q revival. as W.
learn from figures in sculptured stone in
our ancient cathedrals. St. Cecilia, more.
over, is depicted by the old painters quite
as often with bowed instrument as seated
at her traditional organ. The list OF dis
tingnished living lady violinists is very con-
siderable. AS to the common charge of
'ungracefulness," Mr.. Barrett "overrules
1t at once" Nothing more elegant than a
good style OF 'bowingn Giving violin les
sons is now not riou ly one of the most
profitable branches of the music mistresse $
profession. As there is really more work
than the good teachers can do, it Is not sur
prising 70 learn that there are many bad
