The Nightly onestion.

The sun has dropped behind the trees,
The chickens to roost have gone,
The birds and butterflies and bees
Have vanished every one.
You tell him this, and with sleepy eyes
He listens and mods his head;
And then with weary voice he cries:
Why must go to bedS'

The Music of Silence.
When you leave the city and flee away
To rest in some country solitude,
II is not TO hear the low brook play,
Or the woodbird's musical interlude
II Is not 10 hear the fantastic strains
OF the symphony played by the wind on thu
trees
The hum Of insects the patter OF rains,
For there is a music more soft than these.
Go, stand on the crest OF a lonely hill
When the landscape lies in a sunset hush;
When man is absent, and nature still.
And the west is bathed In tender flush;
Let the notes OF silence arise and meet,
And I'LL your soul with their ecstacy,
With silent music, soft and sweet,
With grand and moving melody

WASHINGTON, June 25.-In the House
this morning, before tho reading of the
journal, Mr.. Watson Of Georgia made the
point that there was no quorum, and the
House adjourned after the shortest session
on record-it lasting just / 4 minutes. The
work Of the House is at a staHdstill, owing
to the lack Of a quorum, and some nppre-

New YORK, June 25.-Regarding the
appointment of Charles NJ. MCGEE and
Henry Fink as receivers Of the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad
Company Gen. Thomas made the following
statement to-day:
The complications of the Richmond
Terminal made it necessity for a receiver
to be appointed for the property. so as to
prevent the financial affairs Of the company
from becoming 30 embarrassed as to un-
necessarily injure the property and securi-
ties. The bankruptcy Of the Richmond
Terminal Company, which owned q large
portion of the East Tennessee COM
pany, prevented any appeal to the stock
holders for support or direction at this
time. The innumerable changes in the
management during the past six months de-
stroyed the efficiency of the management
and clouded the credit Of the company to
such an extent as to make it absolutely
necessary to secure for time stability and
confidence under the protection of the
courts The East Tennessee property is
sound, and aside from the adjustment of
some of the later issues of its bonds, which
are mainly held by friends of the company.

such payment" The appointment was

months ago in an attempt to arrest a one
armed negro cattle thief and desperado
named Henry McDuffy. for wife beating,
the negro constable, Frank Brown, em-
powered TO make the arrest, was killed. 1t
was thought at the time by sheriff Fennell
and many Others that McDuffy killed
Brown, notwithstanding the ooroner's jury
said in their verdict that Browns death was
caused by the accidental discharge of
his own pistol. Capt George Ellis

two days ago making an examina ton
of the book Of the Inspector OF marks and
brands and found that the negro McDuffy

sheep and 200 cattle. McDuffy was arrested
down south, where he went at once after
the death Of Brown. Efforts were made to
have him jailed here, in the hope Of con-
victing him of the murder of Brown
but rumor having been set afioat that
he would be lynched tonight the officers
thought 1t more prudent to take him at
once on the Savan aah, Florida and Western
train this afternoon to Lake City. It 10
feared that he will fare but poorly there

GERMANY AND RUSSIA.
Germany and Russia has collapsed under
the combined opposition at st. Petersburg
OF the minister OF finance and minister of
war. Thequestion came before the council
at st. Petersburg after the czar's return to
Copenhagen from the Kiel interview. It is
understood that the car commanded the
establishment OF an entente. Germany Of
fered to make fractional reduction Ia the
duties on cereals in return for reduced
duties on German iron aud coal imported
into Russia. The Russian council, backed
by the ministers, vetoed making any con-
cessions to Germany. So a commercial
entente between the two countriss for a
long time to come is hopeless.
Alarming ndvices come from st. Peters,

PAY OF THE IRON WORKERS.
The Parties to the Dispute No Nearer
an Agreement.

PITTsBURG. June 25.-There were no
wage conferences to-day or any changes in
the situation. The only matter of impor-
tance is the growing distaste Of both manu-
facturers and workers to hold fruitless
conferences. All the while the time
is approaching when July 1 will
witness the closing of the majority Of
the mills in Western Pennsylvania. The
amalgamated association this morning
took up the report of the general confer
ence committee, which met the Pittsburg
manufacturers on the bar iron scale. The
widely diverging propositions Of the man
ufacturers were read, but there was sturdy
opposition among the delegates to any but
their own scale as the real
ultimatum on the wage list. So the
report Of the committee was quietly
tabled for the time, and no action was taken
by which the operatives committee cannot
go into conference again under any other
conditions than those which proved so un-
satisfactory to the mill owners yesterday.
At the Homestead plant of Mr. Carnegie q
strike seems inevitable. The firm say they
will not confer with the emalgamated asso-
citation again and the workers will refuse
to sign the scale unless the association is
recognized.

ATLANTA, GA, June 25.-Fulton county's
grand jury has in hand rather sensational
case. Some time ago J. Gadsden King, a
justice OF the peace by appointment, re-
signed. After his successor had been ap-
pointed 1t developed that the Judge had re-
signed for value received. He had been
given $500 In promisory notes 60 vacate in
order that Judd Glenn. the maker
OF the notes. might write ~. p"
after his name. But Mr.. Glenn
who, when he delivered the $500, thought
he had things fixed so that his appointment
would 70 certain, reckoned without his host
and did not secure the place he had paid
for. He declined to recognize his notes.
and through the controversy over them the
hole transaction came 10 light. To sell or
buy an office in Georgia is a felony and the
grand jury has taken hold Of the transac-
ton between Messrs. King and Glenn. IL
is very probable that true bills will be found
against both.
