ROSE PERKINS,

The Only New Witness in the Penrose
Case.
BUTTE. Aug. 14.-[Special.] There was
little new in the Penrose murder case to-
day. Officers were on the stand nearly all
day in CROSS and redirect examination.
Officer Waters said he had been up to the
Acquisition mine recently turning over the
dump trying to find gougers, but none were
found. When they made search of the
mine they found no gougers. The witness
said, however, that they were used there
when he worked in the mine. Dan O'Don-
nell was recalled at the demand of the de-
Tense, the evident intention being to i'm
front of O'Donnell and the latter asked
whether he did not know him. He admitted
knowing him by sight but not by name,
and denied having ever called him by name,
and denied that he had made to him a
lengthy statement about the Penrose mur-
der. The witness made denials of other
conversations he was reported to have had
with various parties. Rose Perkins was the
only new witness to-day. She keeps dry
goods store at lis West Park street. She
knows Kelly and said that on the evening
of the murder person whom she had often
seen with Kelly entered her store and
bought yard of black muslin, half yard
of elastic, and wanted to buy pair of over
shoes, but she had none. She said it was
nothing unusual for men to buy such arti-
ces in her store.

Dogs Out of Place.

There is great deal of money, consider
able time and any amount of patience ex-
pended on dogs in the city of New York.
Why man wants to keep dog in great
big, hot, close city the year around is
enough to stagger the reasoning faculties
But men do keep them and go to an
amount of trouble and expense to do So.
According to the city statistics there are
about 1000 licensed dogs in New York, and
according to general impressions there are
some 10000 unlicensed. There are dog ref
uges, dog hospitals, dog doctors, dog fan
ciers, dog peddlers, dog catchers and dog
stores-all of which represent good deal
of money.
Outside of the usual ladies' pets it al
ways seemed to me to be cruelty to animals
to keep dog in the city. There are fine
hunters, worth considerable money, kept
in flats the year around all over town,
They don't see the country five days out OF
the year possibly, and some of them never
see it. The inconvenience and annoyance
OF these dogs to other people greatly in
creases the wear and tear of every day ex
istence. Dogs are the bette noir of the New
York landlords life Take whatever pre-
caution he may against the introduction oil
animals to his flats, they will be sneaked
in and will often drive the other tenants
out.-New York Herald.

Interesting Sitting of the Annual Com
ference at st. Peters Church.

At the afternoon session OF the
West Tennessee conference of the
African Methodist church yesterday
the reading of various reports was
resumed and completed. The wife
of Bishop Wayman was present and
was introduce, d to the conference by
Rev. l.. N. Merry, who is styled the
father of the conference. The occa-
sion was the subject of appropriate
resolutions
The annual sermon by Rev. j. L.
Shields was listened to by large
and appreciative audience at the
evening session.
The session this morning was
opened with devotional exercises by
Rev S. E. Edwards, of Bow
ling Green. Financial reports Of
ministers who were not pres
ent yesterday were received. In
this connection Rev. S. r.
Reid, formerly of this city, now pas
tor of Avery chapel, Memphis, re
ported a larger amount Of Children'f
Day money than any other minister
present.
Rev. I. N. Abby, M. d., pastor o
Quinn chapel, Louisville, was among
the visitors present.
The moral, religious and officia
characters of the members were ex
amined and found blameless. On
death has occurred in the conference
the past year-Rev. d. Atkins.
The presiding elders reports wer
well written and showed the work il
good condition. The election of del
egates to the General Conference
which meets in Philadelphia mex
May, will be the interesting featur
of this afternoons session.
The annual missionary sermon
will be preached this evening at 7:3
by Rev. G. d. p. Rucker, principe
of Wayman Female Academy q
Dickson.

No Tobacco Season.

The rain failed to bring the tobacco
season hoped for. The season lasted
but one day. Tobacco softened but
little, not enough to make the color
run, by which to determine its char
acter, quality and worth. The change
in the weather soon dried it out ard
dealers can do nothing yet, and no
one seems to have any idea what the
ruling price will be for loose tobacco.
Farmers will have to call on Uncle
Jerry Rusk for season, or await the
Lords time. We doubt if Uncle
Jerry would bother himself getting
up season for a lot of Democrats,
and our people will have to wait.
However, they can push other fall
work ahead, and be ready to handle
tobacco when the season comes.

Charged With Stealing Money From a
Roommate.

A special from Pittsburg, Pa, in
to.day's American says that Joseph
Mulhatton, we'll known here, is in
jail in that city charged with steal
ing money from roommate. Pat
rick O'TOol is the complainant, and
he alleges that he met Mulhatton in
a saloon Tuesday night, and having
missed his train, he accepted an
invitation from Mulhatton to share
his bed with him. When O'Tool
arose yesterday morning Mulhatton
was gone and so was his money, he
says. He reported his loss to the
authorities and Mulhatton was ar
rested last evening. He denied TAX
ing the money, but the amount
O'Tool missed was found in his pos
session.
Joe Mulhatton has been coming tC
GAINESVILLE as drummer for many
years, and he has some friends here
who will be panied to hear OF his

There was sad ard fatal accident
several days ago, says the New Era,

Newstead. He engaged worthy

to clean out well on his place.
Scarcely had he descended into the

alarmed and sent one of his laborers
down to investigate. The latter be-
gan to inhale the choke damp and
returned. Graphing hooks were
then let down and the body of the
unfortunate man recovered, after Le'
ing horribly torn.
