A WOMAN IN THE CASE.
The Secret of the Young Bostonian's
Shot Probably Discovered.

The Secret of the Young Bostonian's
Shot Probably Discovered.
ATLNTA, GA, Feb 1s.-Aaron Raphael,
the young Bostonian who shot himself in
his room at the Kimball house, is still alive,
but the physioians have pronounced his
death almost certain within the next twelve
hours. To-day Raphael, who claims TO be
only IS years OF age, was conscious, but re-
fused TO throw any light upon the mystery
which surrounds his attempt TO kill
himself This morning a Boston drum
mer, who was well acquainted with
the young man and his family. saw him,
but even to him Raphael refused TO talk
about the shooting. His father. who Is q
prosperous clothing merchant OF Boston,
will arrive here tomorrow. Detectives who
have been quietly looking up the case, by
putting this and that together and taking
words casually dropped by the young
man, have come to the conclusion that there
is woman in the case. This theory
is borne out by a letter found Ia the
room, torn 70 fragments, but put together
by the officers 30 as TO be legible. It is be-
lieved that Raphael left his home In Boston
on account of an unfortunate affair with
the woman in the case, and that remorse at
his action led 70 the suicidal bullet. He
came almost direct to Atlanta aud for q
month has put up at the hotel here appar-
emily having plenty OF money. He had
never been away from home before and
when his money gave out several days ago
he gave up In despair The fact that be was
moneyIess led to the rumor that he had been
led to suicide on account OF bad luck with
an Atlanta Jackpot

JACKSON NOW A JUSTICE.
THE SENATE CONFIRMS THE NOM
NATION.

No One Uttered a Word When the
Vice President Asked II There Were
any Objections-Jeckson's Successor
on the Circuit Court Bench Expected
to Come From Kentucky.
WASHINGTON, Feb. IS.-If there was at
any time disposition on the part Of the
democrats to oppose the confirmation OF
Judge Howell +. jackson to be associate
justice of the supreme court of the United
States that opposition vanished when the
Senate went into executive session this
afternoon. There was not even the for
mallty Of a vote. The executive journal
was read, containing the nomination OF
Judge jackson which had previously been
reported favorably, and when the president
of the Senate said: "If there are no objec-
tions the nomination will stand confirmed, -
not a senator opened his mouth. In this
quiet way all opposition disappeared and
Associate Justice Jackson will, as soon
as convenient to him, qualify for the
place to which he has been appointed by the
republican President. The injunction Of
secrecy was not removed from the
proceedings
JACKSoN's SUCCESSOR.
The confirmation of the nomination
of Judge jackson has led to specula-
tion In political circles as to the
identity of his successor on the circuit
bench. What President Harrison will do
in the matter is, of course, impossible to
say; since the surprise occasioned by tue
nomination of Judge Jackson no one cares
to hazard a prediction. The democrats say
that the confirmation Of Judge jackson was
reached through an understanding that the
President would not nominate a man 20
succeed him. The circuit over which Judge
jackson has presided consists Of the states
of Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and
Tennessee In view of the present
representation on the Judiciary from
those states and If geographic considerations
are allowed to prevail in the selection of
circuit judge, as ID 10 assumed they will,
the general belief is that whether President
Harrison or President Cleveland appoints
the new man will come from Kentucky.
Michigan has Justice Brown In the supreme
court; Ohio, Judge Taft in the circuit court
of appeals; Tennessee, Justice jackson in
the supreme court, and Kentucky, Justice
Harlan in the supreme court The latter's
appointment is the Oldest of the list, how

HOME RULE BILL sPnEOaHs.

Lord Randolph Churchill Aiming for
a high Cabinet Position.
LONDON, Feb. 1S.--The speech OF the
week against the home rule bill was made
on Thursday night by Lord Randolph
Churchill. The liberal newspapers have
endeavored TO weaken the impression made
by his words upon the house and have di-
rected attention to the lack of slashing
spigrams and venemous thrusts which once
characterized his style Although he has
aged ia appearance, Lord Randolph
has not lost vigor In speech and all
bis auditors were surprised by the dignity
aud keenness Of his utterances. There is
no doubt that as his friends have recently
whispered he is in training for high cabinet
honors which be expects to obtain with the
next shuttle of the parliamentary cards.
Aside from his speech the home rule bill has
dragged somewhat, as Mr.. Balfour's speech
was one Of his weakest efforts and Joseph
Chamberlain added nothing TO his reputa-
tion Of the most vitrolic speaker in the
house.
The text Of the home rule bill as pub
lished presents no new features 10 was
thoroughly outlined In Mr.. Gladstone's
speech Of introduction and Its appeara noe
from an opposition view was equally clearly
stated by Mr.. Balfour. The bill embraces
5000 words.

ARTON A HIGH ROLLER.
BE SPENDS MONEY LIKE WATER
AT BUCHAREST.

The First Night OF ais Arrival Spent
at a Concert Hall-The Principal
Song and Dance Artist Immediately
Wins HIS Favor-He Establishes Her
in Luxurious Apartments and Buys
Her a Carriage and Pair.
LONDON, Feb. 1s.-In Paris the Panama
scandal has reached the point where all de-
aversion OF the government to capturing
the man who possesses such damaging evil
denoe Of the bribery of 104 deputies, has
been revealed in stronger light by the pub
lication Of the story Of his life
in Bucharest while the Paris police
were supposed to be doing their
utmost to catch him. The first evening
after his arrival in Bucharest Nj. Arton
passed at music hall, where he became
acquainted with Miss Lilli Mere, the princi-
pal song and dance artist OF the resort He
introduced himself as a German prince
travelling incognito and threw money about
so lavishly that he at once obtained her
favor. The next day he placed her in ele-
CANT apartments, then bought her a carriage
and pair. and subsequently drove with her
daily in the public parks Three days after
his arrival he was the most conspicuous
civilian in the Roumanian capital. and his
enormous expenditure Of money and his
success with Miss Mere was subject OF
gosslps in all the clubs He made no effort
to disguise himself, but wore the
same closely cropped beard and same
striking garment which he had
affected in Paris. The Bucharest police
were so sure Of his identity that they at
once telegraphed a description OF him to
Paris and directed 10 him the attention OF
the French embassy, but they received no
answer from either source. M. Arton mo.
nopolizsd the attention OF the gay world
for three weeks. spent 10000 francs on Miss
Mere and then left to return, he said,
on March !. Upon leaving he gave her 5000
francs worth of diamonds. When he had
time to get over the border two police In
spectors from Paris arrived, confscated a
few unimportant papers in Miss Meres
apartments and without making inquiries
as to NJ. Arton's Whereabouts or further
particulars returned to France. The mission
of the police was purely perfunotory, in
tended merely to impress the people Of
France with the idea that the government
was straining every nerve to probe the
scandal after such an exhibition of indiffer-
ence. Most persons in Paris and other
European capitals believe that all chance
of full exposure is past and the Panama In
oidsnt may be regarded as closed.

a Woman's Skirt Found in the Cell o
George Lingo.

a Woman'5 skirt Found In the Cell of
George Lingo.
GRIFFIN, Ca, Feb. 18.-H there has ever
been any doubt in the mind Of any one
who heard the evidence in the murder case
reported yesterday as to the guilt Of George
Lingo that doubt may now be dispelled.
The last link that completes chain of
irrefutable evidence as to his guilt was
formed to-day. 1t will be remembered
that the woman, Sallie Walker, who
is held as accessory to the crime, stated
in her evidence that the murdered man had
bundle Of clothing belonging to her. To-
day when the station house janitor, Jesse
Hanley, went into the cell occupied by
Lingo to clean it up, he found q woman's
underskirt, showing evidences Of bloody
hands having been wiped on it. The cells
are cleaned up daily after being occupied =,
and there was no chance for any one else
to put IL there. It was torn In shreds and
tucked under the mattress to conceal il.
Lingo has not been apprised Of the find,
nor will he be before the woman is shown
the garment for Identification. The dead
man was buried to-day in the paupers'
cemetery. A number Of our people identify
the deceased as a man named Fold.

LAKEWOOD. N. j., Feb. 18.-Ex Senator
Carlisle passed the day with President
elect Cleveland at the "little white
house" and left for Washington on the $50
o'clock train. Mr.. Carlisle before leaving
said that Mr.. Cleveland had not selected his
private secretary yet but declined to say
anything about the attorney generalship or
the Secretary Of the Navy.
In regard TO silver legislation Mr.. Carlisle
said that he did not think the silver act
would be repealed at this session, and as
there Is strong sentiment against an
extra session of congress for action on
silver, he did not think that an extra ses-
sion Of congress will be called unless IL Is
absolutely necessary.
Mr.. Cleveland had no announcements this
evening In regard 60 the two untitled places

bodily harm got the drop on Everets and
shot first. when the fire was returned by
the preacher with deadly effect.
Brown was man Of family and we'll
connected in this county, his father, the
late David NJ Brown, being one Of the most
