says: Louis Shaner, who shot and killed
James L. Wallace Sunday night last, Is
still at large, but the officers are maxi
Ing every effort to capture him. Tele-
grams were received here yesterday
from different points as to Shaner. One

man had walked through that town,
supposed to be Shaner, and had prob
ably jumped freight going SOU tn.
Another report was current last night
that he had been captured at Charlotte.
Another dispatch said he was seen to
pass Evington on his way to Lynchburg.
1t was learned last evening that the

TRIAL OF OSCAR WILDE.
Jury Fail to Agree In the Case Agains
Him.


Him.
LONDON, May In the Old Bailey
court to day Justice Charles summed
up the case against Oscar Wilde and
Alfred Taylor. accused of serious misde.
meanors. Toe justice in 80 doing said
that counsel for the prosecution acted
wisely in Withdrawing the charge OF
conspiracy brought against Wilde, as
he, Justice Charles, would have ordered
the jury to bring IN verdict of not
guilty on that specification. He i'd
mitted that there was confederation of
the Witnesses. but the jury, he added
would have to weigh the charac ters of
men like Parker, Wood and Atkins,
whom Sir Ed wsrd Clarke, in the JUSTICES
opinion, properly described as black
mailers.
The justice also urged the jury not to
be influenced by Wilde's writings, say
Ing that many great mon had written
indecensly. The jury should exercise
their own Judgment as to whether
Wilde's letters to Lord Alfred Douglass
breathed an unnatural passion, and he
also said the relations between Shelly
and Wilde would be an interesting mat.
ter for the jury's judgment.
The jury retired at 100 p. m. At
p. m. the jury requested that lunch be
resumed their deliberations and after
ward returned and announced that there
was no possibility of coming 70 an
agreement as to the verdict. Counsel
for the prisoners then made application
for ball, but his request was refused
and fresh jury will be- probably sum
moned.
When the news Of the disagreement
reached the outside of the court room
there was great excitement among the
crowds in the street and extra editions
Of the evening papers, which were is.
sued few minutes after the result of
the trial became known, were bought
up quickly by the throngs of people who
surrounded the newsboys.
When Sir Edward Clarke, counsel for
Wilde, asked for bail, Justice Charles
said that the application must be made
in chambe Wilde will be tried again
at the next session of the Central Grim
inal Court. Throughout the proceed
lDgs to-day he WAS very pale. bnt he
did not show any signs of elstion when
the result Of the deliberations OF the
jury were made known. AS Sir Edward
Clarke left the court he was heard to
remark to friend: Truth Is mighty
and will prevail"
There was big crowd outside the old
Bailey during the last stages of the
famous trial to-day; but there was no
demonstration for or against the pris.
oner upon the part of the populace. In
spite of this Wilde was kept in the
prisoners room of the court for an hour
after the adjournment or until the
crowds had disappeared before he was
taken to Holloway jail. ..

AS Governor Foster is certai

AS Governor Foster is certain
to be nominated for Governor, all
good Democrats in Rapides will
have to vote for him at the gener-
al election in April next. This
being true, it seems the part Of
wisdom for our people to fall into
line and support him by sending
delegates to the parish convention
favorable to him. Let our people
cease following the lead Of those
who would stir up factional strife
and dissension. Louisiana has
suffered enough from such causes
and now above all things, we need
peace aud qniet, so that the democ-
racy may present a united front to
her foes at the coming State cleo
ton. While some may not like
our present Chief Executive, yet
as opposition to him will not &C.
complish anything-is worse than
u%seless-it would seem folly to
continue such a course.

The name of Hon. Geo. w.
Bolton, of Rapides, has been

ernor on the Democratic ticket.
This gentleman was a member of
the late legislature and was al &C.
tive, able and faithful representa-.
tive. He was a gallant soldier IN
the Confederate Army aud was
badly wounded in the battle of
Franklin. He is little OF nothing
Of politician, but has never re-
fused to serve his people when
called upon. He lisa business man
and ~deservedly held in the highest
esteem by his fellow citizens. The
States is not urging Mr.. Boltou's
nomination, but We take pleasure
in noting the fact that strong
friends are pushing him for the
Lieutenant Governorship. BE
would makean admirable presiding
officer Of the Senate and, indeed, is
qualified to FIJI any position in the
