A SHERIFF SHOT. DOWN.
Murdered by a Negro Whom He
Was Attempting to Arrest.

Was Attempting to Arrest.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, April 6.-J.
d. Foster, sheriff of Monroe cOun-
ty, was shot through the body by a
ball from a 44-rifle, in the hands of
Wyatt Tate, a negro murderer and
refugee, near Finchburg, Wednes-
day night. He was the leader of a
posse at the time, and was shot in
attempting the Negroes capture.
Tate is the negro who killed Depu-
ty Sheriff VIM. Skenner near the
same place a week agO,while Sken-
ner was trying to arrest him,
on a charge of grand larceny.
Tate has fled to a fortified place
in Flat Creek swamp and defes
arrest. He has two rifles and lots
of ammunition. He is perfectly
desperate and his capture will be
effected only by his death. He has
threatened to kill any white man
who comes within range of his
bullet. A reward Of $500 is offered
for him by the citiZ9ns of Monroe
county, and this the governor will
doubtless add to tomorrow for this
second crime. Latest adviceS are
that he is surrounded and cannot
escape the death menaced him.

PEACE REIGNS
at Connellsville, But Uncertainty

CONNELsVILLE, Pa, April g.
Peace once more reigns through
out the Coke regions, but no one
can tell how long this condition of
affairs will continue. Operators
say the backbone of the
strike has been broken and
the end is only few days
ahead. Trick officials at Scott
dale, reports everything quiet at
all plants, and they do not fear
any more trouble. Although Oper-
ators say the strike is ended, they
are preparing for possible out
breaks at any time. The move
ment was a miserable failure, and
not a point was gained by the men.

AN AFFLICTED YOUTH.
The Duke ofNorfoIk's Son Who is Deaf
Dumb and Blind.

There is something peculiarly pa
thetic IN the pilgrimage which the
duke of Norfolk has just undertaken
to the sacred spring at Lourdes, in the
South of France. As in former years,
he has been accompanied by his two
unmarried sisters and his only son.

earl marshal of the realm. the future

1t had been hoped that with increas-
ing years he would outgrow. at any
rate, some of these infirmities, but
these expectations have mot been real

to constitute later on one of the most
powerful argument against the system

tries of Europe, of hereditary legisla-
tors.

These remarks were made by Tom
Abercorn on the deck of an American
man DIVA anchored in an eastern
port. We spent many afternoons, as
old friends will. in reminiscent con-
versation. l had been cruising about
the world nearly three. years before it
occurred to me that 1 was tired OF it.
mere romantic caprice. consldcra bly,
reinforced by Tom Abercorn's brusque
persuasion, had led me into tho service
in the first place, and now that the
glamor of marine experience had worn
off began to wonder whether would
not be happier on land
here was some reason to believe
that Tom was also growing dissatis-
fed, though he seldom limited any
thing 10 that effect. He was a rough
and-ready fellow and the l.fe of the
sea was more suited to his nature than
TO mine. While | was at college,
breaking down a naturally delicate
constitution by hard study, he was in
Il machine shop developing an iron
muscle that / had occasion to envy
more than all the erudition' | had ac-
quired.
But while Tom was physically
tudes, there was a magnet that ever
drew his thoughts ashore. He was
engaged to be married. The father of
his ina1norata was large and wealthy
broom manufacturer in Philadelphia.
and Tom always spoke facetiously of
the young lady as BroOms In fact,
that was the nickname by which she
was called by the members of her fam
lily and her most intimate friends.
But Mr.. Grayling knows all about
it now" continued Tom, after pause.
'Brooms told him. | fancy he would
have been pretty mulieh if he hadn't
seen it was no use; SO be says: DO
you love himY and Brooms repliel:
What do You take me for papa
hypocrite? Then the old man says
All right, marry him. -
Any further conversation was cut off
by the gruff voice of the executive
officer. The vessel was trespassing
upon the channel. and the harbor mas
ter had sent an order for it to anchor
farther out in the roadstead. so that it
would not be an obstacle in the course
which ships entering or leaving port
were obliged to take.
