A GANG of ruffians, students at
Yale College, New Haven, insulted
Mr.. Bryan and broke up the meeting
he was invited to address in that
town. Every Democratic student in
that college should leave 1t at once
and the curse of the fair minded peo
pie of this country should be upon
this nest, breeding political vipers.

Constable After Arthur,

The grand jury found two true bills
against Walter Arthur, formerly a
Lafayette jeweler-one for horse
stealing and the other for grand lar,
ceny. Arthur left Lafayette some
months ago for hunt, using horse
belonging to MIR. John O'Brian and
buggy owned by Mr.. Jno. Baynham.
It seems that Arthur borrowed the
outfit and never returned it. AS soon
as the indictments were returned a
purse was made up by some of the
citizens OF Lafayette to defrav the
expense Of an officer and Constable
W. T. Brame left this week for Missis-
sippi, where he believes he has located.
Arthur. If found he will be brought
back and prosecuted.

was Chinn, the pro TEN. deputy door
keeper. He made no mistake about
refusing admission to those who had
a right to go in, and followed the
directions of Capt. Tyler from the
inside.
Some idea of the never before-seen
sight can be had when it is said that
on the inside even Senator Goebel
lost his urbane manner and yelled
his defiance at Blanford. A few de-
termined Republicans, or the attempt
of Walton to force his way in,
would undoubtedly have caused
bloodshed.
But it is all over now. Neither
James nor Walton will get into the
joint assembly tomorrow, unless they
go before the Senate does and are let
in by the Republican doorkeeper of
the House.

MhoIesaIe Dog Slaughter.

Herndon March l1-Considerable
excitement was created here this morn
ing by the report that rabid dog had
been seen in our town last night and
had bitten several dogs belonging to
parties in town. Work was begun
early to exterminate the dogs suppos-
ed to have been bitten by the rabid
canine. Among those kill ID was a
very fine English setter belonging to
Joe Pace, also Capt. Dawson's bird
dog "Dan" which was said to be the
finest dog in South Christian. Up to
this hour there has been Is of our
town dogs killed, among them quite
number of worthless ours and ter
riers which will be a source of salts

Herndon Won in the Highest Court.

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, March 10.-The
Supreme Court at Nashville to-day
reversed the opinions of both the
Chancery Court aud Court of Appeals
in the case of Capt. Thomas Herndon,
of this city, in a suit which involved
his right to buy tobacco on the
GAINESVILLE market, from which he
had been ruled by the GAINESVILLE
Tobacco Board of Trade. The case
went through two courts, and Hern-
don lost, and was taken to the court
of last resort, and Herndon won. The
greatest interest existed among the
tobacco men of this section.

IN THE JOINT ASSEMBLY.

Frankfort, KY, March 11.-After
hot debate over which clerk should
call the roll, Lieut.. Gov. Worthington
ruled that the Senate clerk should
call the Senate roll and the House
clerk the House roll.
The calling of the roll was then be-
gun after the Lieutenant Governor
had made strong speech in which
he declared that he would at all times
do what was right. The chief clerk in
calling the names of the members of
the Senate omitted to call that of
James and Walton, the two Repub-
lican Senators who had been unseat-
ed by the Senate majority few min
utes before going into joint assembly.
The clerk of the House in calling the
roll of House members omitted to call
the name of Kaufman (Dem.), who
had been unseated.
The roll-call showed 80, with two
pairs. Bronston asked for the reading
Of the journals of the two Houses.
He made the point that under the
Federal Statute the journals of the
respective Houses should be read,
but agreed that the journal of the
joint assembly be dispensed with.
The Clerks of the Houses then read
the journals of their respective
Houses.
The ballot for Senator was then be-
gun. Senator Elliston voted for Car
| Isle, as did Holloway, Noe. Salyers,
Stephenson, Carroll, Rice, n. N.
Speight, Violet and Walker. Edring-
ton voted for Blackburn, while Poor
refused to vote.
P. G. Smith voted for S. B. Buck
ner. The names of James, Walton and
Kaufman were not called. The Re,
publicans refused to vote at all, with
the object of breaking quorum. An
exciting scene occurred Just before
the vote was announced. The call of
absentees was called, and Flippin
(Rep.), who had been absent, arose
and started to vote. Speaker Blan-
ford shouted to him to sit down and
not to vote, and he was finally in
duced not to do so.
the Democratic members criticised
Blanford for doing as he had. He
declared he had this right to do as he
had, because he was only a member
of the Joint Assembly. The ballot
resulted:
Blackburn. .....................54
Carlisle .................. 10
Buckner .................
The chair decided that as only
sixty five votes had been cast he de-
clared that there was no quorum, and,
therefore, no election Upon motion
the assembly adjourned at once, and
the exciting events of the day, which
are without precedent in Kentucky,
or probably in any other State, were
at an end.

SCENE IN THE SENATE.

Frankfort, KY, March 1l.--No
man will ever be able to describe the
scene in the Senate the minute after
the House unseated Kaufman and
whilst James and Walton were being
unseated. The Lieutenant Governor
was ignored, the clerk put motions.
The fer ner lroke his glvel and left
his chair
The Democratic Senators yelled
their votes like commanding officers
giving orders in the midst of battle.
Senator Holloway left the cham
Der, and threatened by his manner
every Democrat who tried to make
him go back. When the clerk yelled
the result of the vote on the motion
to unseat, the Senators broke with the
ularly-appointed Deputy Door,
keepers to the House door and the
crowd reared like mob.
The real danger was that an at
tempt would be made to bring james
from the House into which he had
slipped while being unseated. He
promised some one that he would
not try to vote till further settle
ment Of the matter. Soon the only
people to hold the door was Bob
tyler on the inside and Capt. Jack
Chinn, his temporary deputy, on the
outside. When things Gained a lit
tie it could be seen that Capt. Chinn's
demonstrations TO draw weapon
were only made when the mob press
ed too hard at first, and that when he
started to draw, those around had de
termined to protect him, and ais:
prepared to fight.
