TIE disquieting rumors telegraphed from
Berlin as to the condition of the Emperor are
justified by appearances at least. At so grave
q crisis William would not have withdrawn to
Herbertusstock if he had not been seriously
i'll. Indeed. it is only an iron nerve which
could have stood unstrung the great excite
ment through which the German sovereign
has passed in the last fortnight. In itself it
was enough to have shaken him from his
equilibrium. With tendency to a dangerous
chronic disease. the agitating scenes
through which he has been moving have
very naturally aggravated this tendency.
The man who was prepared on labor day
last year TO head the policemen in the streets
of Berlin in case there was a riot. and who
in the recent riot under the windows of his
palace exposed himself TO all the dangers of
the angry crowd. is not likely to have with
drawn to Hubertusstock for any other reason
but physical disability. which he did not
wish to come directly under the observation
of his people.

MURPHY N. c., April +.-Bill Murphy,
a Jellico mountain desperate, has de-
clared his intention to kill ten men, and
he has already made good start in that
direction.
Recently his brother George married a
daughter of an enemy of the family and
during quarrel over the matter Bill
shot his brother dead.
Frank Medlin, brother of the dead
mans wife, gave the body burial, and
on Wednesday he was shot dead from
ambush. A moment later Bill Murphy
sprang out into the road and threatened
death to any one that should touch the
body. 1t was about to be mutilated by
the hogs, and Mr.. Morse and wife APP
preached to guard it, when Murphy
fired, hitting Mrs. Morse, and she is sup
posed to be diving.
On Wednesday night Murphy went to
the house of man named Bailey and
demanded lodging. Bailey hesitated
and Murphy shot him in the right shoul.

fore. The two parties raked every city
and town almost bare of voters and got
out unexpectedly and unprecedentedly a
full vote both in actual numbers and in
proportion to the presidential vote.
The finished returns show republi-
can victory. On the state ticket Brown,
republican, for governor polled 27 ,466;
Wardwill, democrat, 25,419, Gilbert,
prohibitionist, 1890; Burton, peoples

state, were also elected by small major.
tiles; but there is no election for attor-
ney general and general treasurer
The cities of Providence, Newport, and
Woonsocket went democratic on the
state ticket. Legislative returns show
good republican majority in both
branches already with between 10 or
20 vacancies yet to be filled.
In the senate the republicans have thus
far elected 20 ef the sc members, and in
the house Al of the ~ members, This
gives them CT on the joint ballot, a
majority of six besides the vacancies yet
to be filled by the second elections. Most
: of these failures to elect are in Providence
and Newport. In the former city only
three of the thirteen members of the leg
islature were chosen. and in Newport
only one of the six. The other failures
were scattered among the small towns.
The control of the legislature by the
republicans gives them the choice of their
candidates for the attorney general and
general treasurer, and secures beyond a
doubt the reelection Of Nelson W .Aldricl
to the United States senate.
The republicans are feeling very jubl
liant as they have secured everything tc

MIR, CHANEY's LECTURES.
The Free Kindergarten AssOcia'

Rev. Mr.. Chaney's lectures on Mon
evenings were originally designed
to benefit his church alone. Hear
ing, however. from ladies of the
Free kindergarten association that
this admirable charity was in ur-
gent need OF funds, it was generously
agreed by the committee having the lee
lures in charge, that they would give
the Free Kindergarten half the proceeds
OF the tickets which the friends of the
kindergarten should sell. This is free Of
all expenses. This arrangement will be
strictly carried out, and all persons
purchasing tickets of the kindergarten
committee will greatly aid the Free
kindergarten association.
The first lecture took place last Mon
day night and gave keen enjoyment to
those who listened to Mr.. Chaney's
charming sketch of the poets, Whittier
and Sidney Lanier. Singing by the Men
delssohn quartette added greatly to the
pleasure of the evening.

A Society Shock,

The local society circles are greatly
shocked over a recent tragedy % at
Brownsville. Two young men of town
escorted two young women from a picnic
to their home in Brownsville few even
ings ago. The quartette seated themselves
on the porch of the parental mansion and
were engaged in discussing the events Of
he day when the ruler OF the household
made his appearance and shouted Come
you snipes, get you home out of here, or
will kick yous out over that fence" The
male escorts we're greatly shocked by this
ruda intrusion, but retained sufficient pres
ence of mind to enable them to clear the
garden fence without the aid of the paren-
Ia boot. The story got to town in some
manner and now local society circles are
greatly shocked There is some talk of the
formation of society to be known as the
Benevolent Order of Escort Protectors.
