"South Before the War''-Buck
ingham.

The chances are that after the
coming weeks engagement of the
South Before the War" at the
Buckingham. that show will not
be seen again in Louisville for
several years. The success that
has attended its exhibitions all
over this country has suggested to
Messrs. Whallen & Martell that
it would not be a bad idea to take
it to the foreign capitals, and al
ready flattering offer has been
made to exhibit the company in
London. This and other similar
propositions are now under consid-
Grafton. To show that the pro-
prietors have taken kindly to the
suggestion, it is said that when
the organization was put together
for the present season it was with
view to going abroad, and to
that end only the pick Of the tai
emf was selected, spectacular effects
added, new specialties put on, the
comedy elements made attractive
ly new and the camp meeting
scene, undoubtedly the greatest
hit of the performance. made
side splitting show in itself The
cake walk has been preserved and
and so have the glees and all the
other picturesque amusements so
dear to the heart Of a negro in
antebellum days. Charley How
ard is retained, because nobody
is to be had who could do the

THOMAS o'TERRELL MURDERED.
His Head Split Open With an AK by a
Young Negro in His Employ.

Thomas O'Terrell a white man and a
fisherman on Skidaway island, was bru-
tally murdered at that place late
Wednesday afternoon by Joe Sidey. a
young negro about 20 years old, who was
in his employ,
There seems to have been little or no
grounds for the deed. Sidey had been in the
employ of O'Terrell for some time having
charge of the boats which O'Terrell used
In his business, and had made reputation
for honesty and close attention to his
duties. day or two after the big
storm MIR O'Terrell missed two of his
boats from their accustomed place and
sent Sidey out to look for them Sidey
kept up the search for two days. at the
end of which time he returned, with only
one of the boats. This was early in Sep
TENDER, and he was given instructions to
keep sharp lookout for the other one
O'Terrell was of the opinion that Sidey
knew more about the missing boat than
he wouldtell. His suspicious were still
further aroused when a few days ago he
saw, negro named Chester Peacock with
a boat painted green which bore every re-
semb lance to his except in color. his hav-
ing been yellow. On inquiring about the
boat Peacock told him he had bought it
from Sidey for $50 There was then no
doubt in O'Ferrel's mind that Sidey had
stolen the boat and pretended it had been
lost
Sidey's disappearance few days be-
fore this had confirmed his suspicion
still further, and when he found out
where the boat was he went in search of
Sidey down the river, but returned with
out finding him He had told William
Travis and Henry Postell, two young
white men in his employ, to come to town
Saturday and swear out a warrant
against Sidey, and it seems that Tony
Moore, an old negro, overheard the CON
versation. Moore told Sidey of this. and
Sidey said he would kill him before he
would submit to arrest
Travis and Postell failed to come in and
swear out the warrant, and Monday they
went out fishing. In the meantime Sidey
returned and Mr.. O'Terell pursued him,
but failed to catch him. Mr. O'Terrell
finally came upon him Wednesday after
noon at his boat landing and told him
that he was going to be arrested. Sidey
asked what for, and was told for stealing
a boat and selling it.
Sidney confessed that he had stolen the
boat, but appeared repentant and asked
to be let or O'Terrell told him he would
see about-it and then stepped in the boat.
AS he did so, Sidey turned around sud-
denly towards him, swung a large axe
over his shoulder and brought it down on
O'Cerrell's head with terrific force, split
ting his skull in two and killing him al
most instantly. Sidey then took to the
woods and escaped. No investigation of
the tragedy was made yesterday and no
attempt made to catch the murderer.

To NV Wife.

As sit and dream Of that wife of mine,
With her chiseled, angel face,
In all things as sweet as the rose is sweet
Whose every movement is grace
With her womanly voice, so sweet and low
That its music thrills you through and
through;
With her tender care OF the jewels given
TO crown our love, so blessed from
heaven
When think of the goodness of God as ex-
pressed
In his giving this wife TO me
70 me, SO unworthy of everything good
L see. or 1 seem to see,
The truth that lies hidden from worldly eyes
In the words from holy writ,
That he moves in a very mysterious way,
And it puzzles me no small bit:
For why should with all my faults
BE chosen from all mankind
To be trusted with such precious thing
AS this gem Of womankind?
An, il makes me think strange things some
time
When dream of this wife with the face
sublime.
She is gentle of no one thinks she ill.,
Do What you like, she will love you still.
There is blood IN her veins that tells her
this
That the hight, the acme of human bliss
Is to give. not receive; all her nature tends
Toward the gentle, sweet, loving way that
lends
Tho greatest glory that shines from the
crown
or the babe that was once in mangor found.
History tells us that some things are true;
But seeing is believing. and this / know,
She is sweeter by far than the violet blue,
She is purer by far than the pure white
d. snow. II.

BLAINE AND HAWAII.

that the correspondence as far back as

for this addition, and to-day II leaked out
that letters from Minister Stevens to
Secretary Blaine had been discovered to
be on file in the state depart

SHOWING that advice was sought
from the secretary relative to a plan to
overturn the cover lment. This part Of
the correspondence is intact. but Secre-

can be established to be in the affirmative
as it is believed by some they will be. the

the profits of the club, iudiciously pro

renowned gambling houses of the second

When admitted, however, such posi-
bic goslings to be plucked would be
sharply watched In one of these strange
clubs, it is claimed, the soap itself was
chained to the stand in the lavatory.
The real difficulty, at the opening of
the club, is to find the money for renting
suitable place, fitting it up with proper
furniture and for employing the proper
officers. This is where the director who
is a real proprietor" comes in. The
twenty petitioners have contributed no
money. 1t is he that supplies everything
and keeps everything in his own hands.
