view with Representatives Mallory and
Storrer, members of the house sub-com-
mittee which formulated the Nicaragua
canal bill, in regard to the remarks of
Foreign Secretary Gray in the British
house of commons, yesterday, concern

Michigan woman's Club Produces Long

OTsEeo, Mich, Feb. -TheWomen's
Literary Club created great sensation
last night by donning tights and per-
forming Longfellow's "spanish Stu
dent" There were three preachers
present, who, in spite of pertunctory
disapproval, admitted that the play was
well put on. A novel feature was the
appearance of score of prominent citi-
zens dressed in broadcloth, wearing
bald-headed wigs. They marched in
with dignity and quietly seated them
selves in the orchestra circle amid loud
applause. The women were indignant
at the gentlemen who appeared in the
front row with bald-headed wigs.

matter of interestin the miners conven-

cient evidence to justify the allegation
that Mark Wild had been given money
corruptly by John Mcbride to pull out
as leader of the Debs men during the
Hooking Valley strike. Mcbride said
this was equivalent to Scotch verdict,

structions to the committee to make an

GILLASPY GETS A NEW TRIAL
He Was Convicted of Murder at
Columbia, Mo.

COLUMBIA, Mo-, March 9.-Upon the
testimony of w. J. McQuitty, editor
of the Rocheport Commercial, and Miss
Jordon, a typesetter in his office, that
they heard John s. Miller, one of the
jurors, say last July that Gillaspy was
guilty of murder, Judge John A. Hook
aday this morning granted Thomas j
Gillaspy, convicted of murder, a new
trial. The juror, Miller, testified that
he had never thlaed with McQuitty or
in McQuitty's presence upon the sub
ject, and Is reputable citizens testified
to Miller's high character, and his
reputation for truth and yeracity.
Despite this, Judge H~ockaday granted
a new trial. Seven of the Gillaspy
jury voted in favor of furnishing him
by death, and none favored acquittal.
A compromise verdict of 10 years in
the penitentiary was finally reached.
1t is doubtful now if he ever will be
punished.

THE SASSOUN MASSACRE.
Survivors of the Terrible Butchery Re-
late the Whole Story.

KARs, March ia deputation OF
the survivors of the Sassoun massacre
have appeared before the Commission
of Inquiry and have narrated the whole
story of the butchery. They presented
a written statement which mentions
that the cross and a Bible were flung
at the feet of an American priest, who
was ordered to trample on them. He
refused and thereupon the Turkish
soldiers gouged out his eyes and flung
him into a pit with the others who
were dying.
OF the 800 persons who were taken
at the same time with the priest, only
one, a merchant named Awake, es-
capped. He saved himself in an almost
miraculous manner.
Kurds testify that they saw Turkish
soldiers take children by the feet and
dash them against stones. A Turkish
Sergeant bound an old Armenian head
downward to some branches and slow
ly cut his throat with an ak.
The same Kurds saw the soldiers
take pregnant women, offer bets on
the sex of the children, and then cut
the ome open. The money was
paid to the mar who guessed correct
ly.
There were other details too horri-
BILE for print, given by the witnesses.
They named Al villages which the
Turkish soldiers burned. These fires
were previously recorded in the evil
dence before the Commission.

A WAR "REMINISCENCES
Tribute to the Memory OF Brave Mai,
Robinson From q -Comrade.

To the Editor of the Ledger
MEXICO, Mo-, March 13.-The death
of DIR. Jno. NJ. Robinson, oil Sacarro,
N. n, as announced in your last issue,
brings wildly to my mind reminiscent
ces of the past; sorrow, joy, gladness
and sadness.
While Maj. Robinson was of my
best friends, paramount to this, the
pure and ~disinterested friendship ex-
isting between him and my dear old
father was akin to that between David
and Jonathan, for they were indeed
true and tried friends.
My first intimate acquaintance with
Maj. Robinson was at Lexington, Mo-,
when he stayed up with the boys, as
he called us, God bless him assisting
in making bullets and filling cartridges,
preparatory to next days conflict. He
was one of the last to seek a few hours
rest before marching to town to at
tack the enemy. We we're eamped
about two miles south of Lexington.
After a three days hard fight, and
Gen. Mulligan had surrendered, We
started south. 1t was, / believe, about
the third day after leaving Lexington
when Maj. Robinson, riding along side
of III company, said: "My boy, you
seem to be greatly fatigued; get on my
horse and ride awhile" Foot-sore
and leg-weary 1 gladly accepted this
kind offer, while he took my place in
the rank. Riding slowly on, thinking
of home and loved ones, oh: if my
dear old father and mother but knew
the kindness shown me by this big
hearted Major how much would have
been their gratitude and thankfulness.
Our Maj. was not only agood man and
true christian gentleman, but he was a
brave man.
After the Lexington fight he was in
a hand-to-hand engagement, when he
received a slash over his head from a
sabre; the seal followed him to the
grave. The soldier who struck the
blow never lived to fire another shot
or support another battery. Peace to
his ashes; may he and the Major meet
in the sweet by and by. Another oc-
casion l cannot forget-would not il
l could, could not if would:
In Gratiot Street Prison, St.
Louis, (the old Mcdowell College, he
would, on every opportunity, preach
to US. AT one time especially, sur
rounded by as many as could get neal
enough to hear, soldiers and citizens
my father one of the latter, seated or
the lower part of a three story bunk
with face upturned and fearful eyes
listening to DIR. Robinson, who with
all the ~earnestness of a Paul and the
~eloquence, ! might say, of al Apollo
persuading men to trust in God in ad.
versity as well as in prosperity ant
look to Jesus for salvation; and tt
think of his hearers-lazy looking
dirty, lousy, half-clad and half-fed-
as dear to the heart of ournoble Maiol
as though they had been the bon ton
the elite or the millionaire.
For christian fortitude, rue Drawer,
and devotion he was not a whit below
Stonewall Jackson. s. S. CRAIG.

ELOPEMENT ENDS IN MURDER
Father of a White Girl at Unionville.
Mo-, Kills Her Negro Husband.

KNOXVILLE, Mo, March 10.-The
elopement about a year ago of Al
Todd, a negro, with the daughter of
City Marshal William Clark, white, led
to murder this morning. The couple
returned yesterday to the woman's
home, to remain during her confine-
ment. Upon the promise that Todd
would never again show himself, Clark
told him to go, as he did not want to
give the cast publicity. AT a late hour
last night, however, Todd went to
Clark's home and called the latter up.
Clark ordered him away, but instead
of going he drew a revolver in a men
acing manner, when Clark shot him.
Todd ran about a block and fell dead.
At the inquest this morning the Cor
oner's jury exonerated Clark.

Some of the extreme silver papers o.
Missouri contain nothing but abuse o.
prominent Democrats who do moi
agree with them. Some of our silver
men are masquerading. They claim
to be in favor of bi~nletallism, and, az
a matter of fact, they are simply
favoring silver as a standard. Some
of them are old greenbackers and fiat
money men who think they see an
opportunity to get to the front, tenn
porarily at least. The financial ques'
