now recovering. He was in water closet
when attacked by the reptile.
F. o. Mott, probate judge of Harper
county, has issued seven marriage licenses
this week. If it gets few degrees warm
er next week, say lis degrees, he will no
doubt issue ten more. We have a large
surplus of wheat in the county this year;
hence love and perpetual bliss is making
an effort to balance the difference.
Anthony has had her share of book
agents and fakirs of late. A young lady
book agent called on Judge Mott one day
last week. After hearing what she had to
say he jocosely remarked that he did not
care to purchase one of her books, but il
she would bring up her solid fellow" he
would issue the license and marry her for
book. A pretty little blue book has
been added to the judges library. Charles
A. Robinson and Blanche Davidson, the
agent, were married on Wednesday by
tue pTODdLe JuuSe.

NEW YORK, July 22-It is not expected
that Chairman Harrity will announce the
embership of the national Democratic C
executive committee of the campaign COM
mittee the advisory committee, or the
other committees pertaining to the organ
ization of the party, before the latter part
OF next week. So far as known Chairman
Harrity has NOS given the slightest iu-
timation of his intentions. but there ap-
pears to be general understanding as to
at least half of the membership OF the
executive committee. The chairman eX
officio will, of course, be Mr.. Harrity HIM
self. Lieutenant Governor Sheehan of
New York, the national committeeman
from the Empire state, will almost GER
talnly be selected as o member, unless he
declines the houOr. During yesterday
mornings reception it was observed that
the greeting between Mr.. Sheehan and
the eX-president was Unexpectedly friend
~, and the two had an extended con-
ference yesterday afternoon. The public
at once jumped to the conclusion that Mr..
Sheehau would be member of the eX-
ecutive committee. The young lieuten-
ant governor himself is very uncommuni-
cative on the subject.
Senator Brice Will of course. be a mem
Der of the executive committee as il Is
generally understood that he will not de-
cline to serve in that capacity. 1t is be-
lieved that among members of the eXecu-
tive committee will be S. ?. Sheerin of
Indiana. Senator Ransom of North Caro-
lima, Congressman Gable of Illinois,
Senator German OF Maryland, ID. j. Cam

There is some little speculation as to the

MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 22-There is nc
| abatement. Notwithstanding the hot
weather, in the ALICE Mitchell case. The
| first witness today. Miss Addie Mitchell,
seemed to feel her sisters position keenly
and to realize the humiliation attendant
upon it. Her testimony was, in the main
| purely cumulative of that offered pre-
| viously as to Alice's disposition.
| James johnson, a brother of Lille
| testified that, as far as he could judge
Alice had always displayed the most de-
cided aversion TO the society OF gentlemen.
| The testimony of William II. Volkmar,
| brother-in-law of the victim proved the
most sensational Of the day. He said that
| up to the time of his moving to Gold
Dust, Ark, he mad never suspected any
thing gushing in the friendship of the
two girls. and considered il as only the
friendship usual between girls. Coming
TO the day of the proposed elopement,
while Alice Mitchell and Lille johnson
We're visiting Freda Ward at his house
last summer, he said that F'reda's actions
denoted something unusual. She insisted
upon sleeping in a different room that
usually occupied by her, and on leav-
ing the window open. He Kept a
watch outside, expecting man 20 show
up. Just before the boat whistied he en-
tered the room suddenly. He heard kreda
push her valise under the bed. She was
dressed, but as ne entered the room she
jumped into the bed and pulled the sheet
over her, as though she were addressed,
and professed anger at the intrusion. The
witness was pretty mad. He called his
wife, aud then demanded an explanation.
Freda then confessed that she was going
to run off with Alice. They were TO marry
and Alice was to work for her TO support
her Ga the discovery of this plan Of elope-
ment he promised Freda that he would
never mention the matter again 10 her. He
was ashamed of it and OF her Tor wanting
to leave good home. The witness also
told how Alice and Lille, while on this
visit, firted with everybody who wore
mans apparel, and at every opportunity,
having no regard as, to whether the men
were married or single. They also assum-
ed positions that not infreQuently revealed
their under clothing. Finally. he express
ed to his wife the opinion that they be in
vited to leave, as he did not consider them
fit associates for his sister-ln-iaw. The
witness saw nothing to lead him 10 be-
lieve that Alice Was mentally unsound.
Adjourned.
