whiskey in iced water.
Remember that there is but one pure
medicinal whiskey in the market and that is
Duffy,s Pure Malt, and that is the only kind

are wise you will not be deceived but insist
upon having that which is purest, best, and
certain to do you good.

BROOKS AssAILANT GUILTY.

Jury Finds Richards Guilty of Sim
PIE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Witness.
The trial of John T.. Richards for having
assaulted Hoomer Brooks Of Greenville on
November IS, took place today in the Court
was committed it created a great deal of
notoriety, for the parties to it
were all well known business men
who moved in good circles in
society. Brooks is a well known manufac-
turer; Richards is a lawyer and John Bull,
who was indicted with Richards, is a the
atrical manager. When Bull was arrested
and arraigned under the Indictment he
pleaded guilty and was admitted to bail for
sentence.
Prosecutor Winfield represented the State
for Richards. Homer Brooks was the first
witness called. He Gold substantially the
same story he told to a News reporter at the
time of the assault.
Conductor Backer and several other wit
nesses corroborated the evidence of Mr..
Brook in detail and the State rested.
Ex-Mayor Collins in outlining the defense
said that the defense would claim that
Brooks had been drinking. That, as is the
custom with commuters on the Central, the
men all wait until the ladies are all accom-
modated with seats in the ladies' car, and
then they are permitted to go In If they de-
sire to.
The first witness called for the defense was
William r. Hornblower, whom President
Cleveland recently nominated as Associate
Justice Of the Supreme Court of the United
States, but who was not confirmed.
Mr.. Hornblower testified that he and
Richards had been room mates at
Princeton College, and that ever since a
warm and close friendship had existed be-
tween them. He simply testified to the ex-
cellent character of Richards. Several other
prominent witnesses testified in the same
way, and then Richards was placed on the
stand. He said that Brooks was drunk that
night and assaulted Bull, who only defended
himself.
Two witnesses corroborated Mr.. Richards,
and Brooks was then recalled by the State.
He testified positively that he did not strike
Bull on the car platform, as Richards testi-
fed. He said further he was not drunk,
and had not tasted Intoxicating liquor that
day.
The jury retired, and late this afternoon
rendered a verdict finding Richards guilty
Of simple assault. He was fined S. and
costs.

GannSn and SnsitBa with EHiTa-What
They Are Doing.
The exclusive publication in last Friday
nights JERSEY Cry News Of the running
away Of Herbert Gibson of No. Sc Duncan
avenue with two companions, John Cannon
and Fred Smith, Jr., caused considerable
gossip among the young people OF the Hill.
The Journal, Us is only TOO common with it
nowadays, published the account of the story
the following night, but stated that the
reason of the boys running away was on ac-
count of a number Of debts they had con
tracted, and which they could not pay. a.
NEWS reporter was sent Tor last
evening by Nh. George ellison. q brother or
one OF the runaway boys, who stated that
tho Journal was wrong in making that
assertion. Mr.. ellison said
II wish 0 would state through your
valuable paper that my brother did not owe
one cent when he left town. Ny mother
and | went to every trade5man on the Hill
and asked them il Bert owed them anything,
with the intention Of paying any debt that
he had incurred. but we did not find a man
or woman to whom he owed a penny. An
other thing the Journal said-about Bert
hanging out with corner ~loafers, and that he
was an habitue of gin mills, pool
rooms, etc. = is also wrong. Bert
vent to Hasbrouek's and moved in
best society in Jersey City. The
reason he left town was On account of a
little misunderstanding he had with father.
Mother and l know where he is now, and
also knew that he was going to leave town,
but did not NOW that Cannon and Smith
were going with him.
ellison then showed the reporter d letter,
which he received from his brother, yester-
day morning. The letter was dated Chicago,
and in it he said that he and the other boys
were working for the Prudential Insurance
Company. but were going to leave in a day
or two and go to Los Angeles, California,
where they are going to work in a vineyard.
The rest of the letter was taken up with love
to his mother and his brother, and concluded
with asking for some money.
Mr.. ellison said that his brother would not
return to Jersey City for at least two or
three years.
Neither Cannon nor Smith has sent any
word to his friends. and no one knows what
their plans are outside of what Gibson
writes.
Mr.. George Gibson said that in the letter
Bert wrote previous to the one above re-
ferred to, he said Cannon was getting a little
homesick, and mightiat n time make a
break for home, while Smith seemed to be
enjoying the novelty of wandering around,
and was more determined to keep away from
Jersey than the day they first left.

MORE ABoUToALLING ON FRIENDS

OF course, in inquiring for a friend who
is staying with a stranger to the caller. it is
always proper to ask for the hostess, and
quite inadmissible not to do SO. But the
said hostess should nave a little considera-
ton, too, and not intrude her society upon
the caller beyond the limits of mere
~politeness. 1t is egregiously selfish of her to
monopolize the call, herself, or never to give
the two friends an opportunity for a tete-a-
of one entertaining q visitor is .one Of the
commonest forms o. thoughtlessness.

STARVING IN BEAUFORT.
Six Hundred White People Arc Suf
fcring for Bread.

Governor Tillman has received a
letter from Bluifton in Beaufort Coun-
ty, showing q terrible state of destitu-
tion among white people in that town
ship owing to the cyclone last August.
Thousands of dollars and provisions
were sent to the afflicted people of the
storm-swept section and the distribu-
tion was made under the direction Of
the Red Cross Society. 1t tappcars that
there was something wrong in this dis
tribution. Many worthy white people
were entirely ignored and negroes got
the benefit OF most Of the money and
supplies. Whites only got about $500
in money and the letter further states
that there are $50 families or about 600
souls in the township in absolute need
OF the nccessaries of life. The farm
ers can't go to work because they have
no farm animals or anything to feed
them with If they had them. They
themselves are in dire need of food.
They have received some help from
ncighbors who, though they themselves
lost nearly everything, still had some
thing left. The relief committee of
the New York Evening Post also sent
money to them. An appeal is made to
the Governor for immediate help and
farmers in the up-cOuntry are called
upon to help their brethren on the
coast.
Donations should be sent to Charles
ton in care OF the steamer Pilot Boy
and they will be promptly delivered to
the sufferers at BluiftOn.
Governor Tillman will also receive
money and send it to the afflicted pco-
pie. The case is an urgent one and a
most prompt and liberal response
should be made to the appeal.

the war, but now claims Dakota as his
home. People from that section o.
the country who know him say that he
Is without standing, and that he could
not command q hundred dollars.
The other charge that Lodge pro-
poses to investigate is the one made
by the Philadelphia Press day before
yesterday, that the sugar trust has
control of the Senate committee on
finance, and had so far fixed the tariff
as they desired, and would continue to
do so. There is no truth in this
charge, which has been banded about
the lobbies OF the capitol so long that
1t Is shop worn and much frayed at
the edge.
Lodges resolution went over until
tomorrow. 1t has caused great deal
OF talk. 1t looks as il the intent of it
| is to embarrass the Democratic Sem
ators who are endeavoring TO give the
country bill reducing tariff taxation.
Its evident animus detracts very much
from the influence which it would
otherwise have.
WASHINGTON, d. c., May 1.-THE
Senate to-day adopted the Lodge re-
solution, providing for an investiga-
tion OF the reported attempted bribery
OF Senators Hunton of Virginia, and
Kyle OF South Dakota, to induce them
to vote against the tariff bill, aud also
the newspaper assertion that the
sugar trust has undue influence on the
members of tho finance committee in
shaping the sugar schedule of the bill.
The scope Of the resolution was extend
cd to an investigation OF the news
paper reports that some members Of
the finance committee have been
operating in certain stocks, the price
of which was affected by the COM
mittee's action.
The committee which will make the
investigation has not been named yet,
though 1t is expected that it will be
announced by the Vice-President this
afternoon Or tomorrow. The proceed-
ings OF the committee will, d1course,
attract a great deal Of attention at
least, for while. That they will be
attended by any very sensational
developments, is not very likely.
There is apparently nothing in the at
tempted bribery OF Hunton and Kyle,
known character about Washington
did make o bluff in that direction.
This man represents nobody. He
could not command three and q quarter
dollars inside of three days and half.
He made some $4,000 when he was q
carpet-bag member of the House from
South Carolina for one torn, but he
has nothing now.
AS to the other branch OF the investi-
cation, that will be found to be about
equal in results. There has been a
great deal Of talk about the influence
of the sugar trust and about speculat-
ing Senators. There has not been,
however, one thing in proof atfirma-
tive in the talk. The talk had it's
origin in quarters that are hostile to
tariff reform, and has been indulged
in for the purpose OF ebstructing that
reform.
The Senators who have been named
as being unduly Influenced are more
than anxious for an investigation. 1t
will be found that Lodge, instead of
firing a Columbiad as he thinks, has
simply let off pop-gun.

The Future OF the Road-Receiver
Chamberlain to Retire-Hc Goes
Back to New York.
The News and Courier has interview
ed Ex-Governor ID. II. Chamberlain in
regard to the recent transfer of the
South Carolina Railway, and he makes
the following statement as to its future
management
No disposition OF the property OF
the South Carolina Railway Company
could afford me more personal graft
fication, or in my Judgment give strong
er guarantees of advantage to Charles
ton and South Carolina, than its present
ownership by the Nj ossrs. Parsons and
their associates. / say this as warm
and constant friend of this city and
State. There is no community in the
land whose prosperity [ more greatly
desire than that of this city and State.
IL the Louisville and Nashville Com
pany or some other large railwa, sys-
tenn could have obtained the saith
Carolina Railway and used it for the
benefit of the locality in which it lies,
it is possible that greater advantages
would have come from such ownership
than from a more private ownership or
from continuing it as o private and
separate railway.
buU Une lOulSVlll0 ana NASHVILLE
have seen fit. after investing more than
million dollars in the junior securi-
ties of tho South Carolina Railway, to
allow this great interest to bo wiped
out and the property on which they
had expended so large q sum to pass
into other hands. Personally | am
more than content with this result, for
the property Is now owned indepcnd-
emily by gentlemen whom have known
for twenty-five years, who are exper-
fenced business men and practical rail
road men. They know what they have
bought; they know its value, it's adj
vantages, its dangers, its prospects and
its possibilities.
"They have not made hasty pur.
chase, but have taken ample time To
canvass the whole question of it's pur.
chase and its management. They have
abundant means to carry out their
plans without resorting to the street
for loans and starting without dollar
of floating indebtedness. They have
put upon the property mortgage OF
50, ,250,000 at per cent. The annual
charges, therefore, for interest will be
| $265, 500. This will be the only fixed
charge, and the records OF the South
Carolina Railway show abundantly
that in no year have the earnings boon
| insufficient, under decent management
I to more than meet this charge. What
