The treasury deficit for October is
$1,000, 600. '''''''''The fighting between the
Armenian Christians and the Mahome-

'''''''''China paid her first installment Of

a .foregone conclusion that Tom Reed is
to be speaker ofthe next house Of repre-

that he has decided to appoint Serene E.

THE NATION OF JONEs.-"There
was government in existence within
the limits of my State during the late
war that I find no mention of in the
histories" says Mr.. F. NJ. Holden, of
Mississippi. SIN the early days of Sc
cession the county of Jones, through
its leading citizens, withdrew from the
Confederacy, declared themselves
free and independent people, organic
ed government, adopted constitu.
ton, modelled after that Of the United
States, called this new government
the republic of JONES' elected presi-
dent and full quota of officials, and
refused to furnish men or money to the
Southern cause. On the approach of
Confederate troops they would retreat
to the swamps and other inaccessible
places, and remain in hiding till the
danger had passed. They kept up this
queer attitude of hostility to their own
brethren, so far as I am informed, to
the close of the war; but the republic
of Jones passed out of the memory of
men with the event of Appomattox,
and the mention of it now in that To-
cality is only cause for smiles

"Hus any one here anything to askf'

"Hds any one here anything to dskf'
captain. Still, no one offered to lead
the others and leave the room. After
moments nervous rapping with his
knuckles on the desk Captain Chester
again abruptly spoke:
"Gentlemen, l am sorry to incom-
mode you, but if there be nothing more
that you desire to see me about shall
20 on with some other matters, which,
pardon me, do not require your pres
ence."
At this very broad hint the party
slowly found their legs, and with much
wonderment and not a few resentful
glances at their temporary commander
the officers sauntered to the doorway.
There, however, several stopped again,
still reluctant to leave in the face of so
pervading mystery, for Wilton turned
"Am I to understand that Colonel
Maynard has left the post to be gone
any length of timer" he asked.
"He has not yet gone. l do not know
how long he will be gone or how soon
he will start. For pressing personal rea-
sons he has turned over the command
to me, and if he decide to remain
away of course some field officer will be
ordered to come to headquarters For a
day or two you will have to worry
along with me, but l sha mt worry you
more than can help. I've got mystery
and mischief enough here to keep me
busy, God knows Just ask Sloat to
come back here to me, will you? And,
Wilton, l did not mean to be abrupt
with you I'm all upset today. Mr.. Ad-
jutant, notify Nh. Jerrold at once that
he must not leave the post until have
seen him. 1t is the colonel's last order.
Tell him so. "

All Three Convicted.


Ed Green, Fannie Carson and J. l..
Page, were tried in Spartanburg last
week for the murder of j. NJ. Carson
last July. 1t will be remembered that
when the murder was first discovered,
it was thought that it was q case Of
suicide. This view prevailed general
ly and was strengthened by the verdict
of the coroner's jury. Afterwards,
however, it developed that Green had,
for a long time, been intimate with
Carson's wife, and there were suspi-
cions of foul play. Further investiga-
tions led to the arrest of Mrs. Carson,
Green and Page. A short time ago,
Mrs. Carson broke down and confessed
to the foreman of the grand jury that
the murder was committed by Green,
assisted by Page, and she was fully
aware of their purpose before the
murder was committed. There was
other testimony; but the confession of
Mrs. Carson was sufficient for the jury.
The jury took the case at 9 o'clock
Saturday night and remained out until
10 minutes after 5 O'Clock Sunday
morning, when it returned with ver-
dict of guilty as to all three of the
accused but recommended Mrs. Car
son to the mercy of the court. The
court sentenced Green TO be hanged
on December 81, and Mrs. Carson and
Page to a life imprisonment in the
penitentiary.

to his desk again as the new officer Of
the day, guardbook in hand, entered to
make his report.
1.-The usual orders, captain, said
Chester as he took the book from his
hand and looked over the list OF prison
era Theu in bold and rapid strokes,
he wrote a.r, IS the page the customary
certificate of the old officer of the day,
winding up with this remark:
"Hc also inspected guard and visited
sentries between and 1886 a. m. The
firing at $3.50 a m. was by his order. y
Meantime those officers who had en-
tered and who had no immediate duty
to perform were standing or seated
around the room, but all observing pro-
found silence For a moment or two no
sound was heard but the scratching of
the captains pen. Then, with some en-
barrassment and hesitancy, he laid it
down and glanced around him.
"Has any one here anything to ask
any business to transact?'
Two or three mentioned some routine
matters that required the action Of the
post commander, but did so reluctantly,
as though they preferred to await the
orders of the colonel himself Captain
Wilton indeed spoke his sentiments:
81 wanted to see Colonel Maynard
about getting two men Of my company
relieved from extra duty, but as he isn't
here fancy 1 had better wait. "
Mot at all Who are your men?
Have it done at once, Mr.. Adjutant,
and supply their places from my COM
pany if need be- Now, is there anything
else?"
The group was apparently ''nonplus-
ed" as the adjutant afterward put it,

the part Of tine usually crotchety senior
