Gently we laid her form to rest,
Her casket sweet OF clay.

Upon the judgment day.

And bids US to prepare.

in the case from commenting upon
the Prince of Wales connection with
it. This remark caused a sensation
but it was nothing to what followed.
Sir Edward intimated that the pre-
sence of the Prince of Wales In court
would not prevent him from making
any comment necessary, saying that
he, as counsel, had painful duty to
perform and that he intended to per
form it honestly and fairly. His OPP
ponents, he continued, had always
been careful to allude to him, counsel
for plaintiff, as Solicitor General' and
he added, Hwhile 7 am proud of that
title, l must remind the jury that !
appear in this case simply as an Eng
lish barrister, and am obliged to dis
regard friendship and even my own
interests and comment on the conduct
and evidence of one of the highest in
the land"
Sir Edward, as he uttered these last
words, turned squarely around until
he faced the Prince of Wales, upon
whom every eye in the court was then
fixed and who nervously crossed his
egs, while the audience was utterly
aghast at what was considered to be
the audacity of the Solicitor General
In several directions the whispered
comment "why, he is going to at
tack the Prince of Wales" was dis
tinctly heard and caused all the atten-
ton to be riveted upon the PLAINTIFF S
counsel, e6
Continuing, the Solicitor General
remarked that Sir Charles Russell,
for defendants, had said that seven il
the jury found for the plaintiff aid
disregarded the document the latter
had signed at Tranby Croft, the mill.
tary authorities would take the matter
up and that Sir William Gordon Cum
mings' name would be stricken from
the army list"
"I wish to say in unmistakabls
terms" exclaimed Sir Edward Clarke
raising his voice until it echoed tell
ingly through the court, "that it woult
be impossible for the authorities to dc
any such thing and to leave on tina
list the names of Field Marshal Prime,
of Wales and General Owen Williams.
| This bold statement seemed to com
pletely take away the breath of th'
audience and caused by far the creates
sensation of the entire trial Amids
this storm the Price of Wales sat OF
the bench to the left of the Lord Chic
Justice, immoxable, not a muscle of hi
face apparently twitching, leaning hi
head upon his arm and endeayorinI
to appear totally unconeerned.

Good Looks.

Good looks are more than skin deep,
depending upon healthy condition OF
all the vital organs. If the liver be in
active, you have bilious look, if your
stomach be disordered, you have dys-
peptic look, and if your kidneys be af-
fected you have pinched look. Sc
cure good health and you will have
good looks. Electric Bitters is. the
great Alternative and tonic, acts directly
on these vital orgaus. Cures pimples,
blotches, boils, and gives good com
plexion. Sold at Mcfarland & Cos
drug store, so cents per bottle.

Two Young Men krraigRed for At
tempting to Wreck Train.

Sunday, while the Three C's excur-
sion train was moving on its way, la
den with humanity to the amount OF
perhaps six hundred persons, the en-
gineer saw on the track before him, near
Rose Hill, Unicoi county, some rails
and spikes which were evidently put
on the track to wreck the train. He
succeeded in stopping in time to pre-
vent a wreck. The excursion party
naturally looked about for the parties
to the crime. They discovered two
yonng men near by who, when seen,
broke to run. The excursionists sue
ceeded in catching them after a run
of about three fourths of a mile, and
took them back to the train, tied to-
gether, and brought them to this city
late in the afternoon. They were
found to be Joe and James Hutchins,
of Rock Greek, n. c., For want OF
witnesses their trial was postponed un-
til yesterday afternoon, when they
were brought before Judge Hart for a
preliminary hearing. Upon the eyi-
dence adduced James Hutchins was
bound over to court, while his brother
Joe was released. While it was q nat
ural inference that one was as much
involved as the other, there was not
sufficient evidence to hold Joe.
Frank Mcclellan testified that he
saw James Hutchins putting the tim
bers ON the track.
The sisters of the boys were present
at the trial, and seemed much affected.
The prisoner is in charge of officers
Remine and Rhea, and will be taken
to Erwin today.
1t is said that on one occasion before
this Joe Hutchins was caught putting
rails on the track to wreck lever car
but was caught and a good whipping
applied. His first stepwas an attempt
of small moment but perhaps it led
to the last and greatest that could be-
the attempt to wreck train laden
with happy excursionists.
