The following story reads ike a

Brownsville, Jan. %. (Specian
In the sunni 9r of 1878, " nen the

height in Mempn.s 5, young man, a
member of the Howard Associatio4
as one day wa G along The
streets of that city v zen he heard
the cry of a chilu In distress.
/ Going into the hou.e he discovered
little -,irl sitting beside L or moth
er on bed bitterly crying and
trying to awaken her. o. going
up to them, the young man discog-
cred the mother was dead, having
died of the dread disease. He took
the child to the house, next door,
and gave her in charge of a negro
woman to keep until his return.
He then procured aid and succeeded
IN getting the lady buried. After
burylng the lady, he returned to the
house of the colored woman and got
the child and carried her to the po-
lice station. After some discussion,
it was decided to take her to the
Church Home Orphanage of the
Episcopal Church. This was done.
Some months after this, Mrs. j.
p. Quigley had the misfortune to
lose an infant, and desiring to adopt
child she went to the Church
Home and found this one, whom
she adopted and educated as one of
her own.
Fourteen years rolled round and
one summer day Rev. Ireneas Trout
was at a picnic in the Quigley
neighborhood and met Miss Theo-
dosia Quigley, whom he married
almost year ago. He was aware
that she was an adopted daugh-
ter of Mrs. Quigley, but did not
know until one day last week that
she was the same little orphan that
he had recued SO many years ago.
Rev. Mr.. Trout is the rector of
Christ Episcopal Church, at this
place, and he and his lovely wife
have made many friends since COM

banks says whenever the
governorship of Tennessee is
mentioned the birds actual
~ whistle the name Of Bob
Taylor in col nection there
with. From all over ii
State, demands are being
made upon him to make tt
race. He is looked upon /
many as the only Nc es who
can lead the democratic party
out of the Wilderness. Bob
Taylor, like the balance of us
weak mortals, has his faults;
but no man en- doubt his
ability, question his loyalty
to democracy or deny that
his heart overflows with kind
ness towards his fellow man.
Neither can his popularity be
doubted. When Bob Taylor
gets out among the people,
there is no man in Tennessee
who can draw larger crowds.
Men will leave the cotton
patch and allow grass to grow
in the corn rows; the good
women will let the COWS and
calves together, in fact every
body on the place will neg
lect their duties in order to
come out and hear Bob Tay-
lor. There seems to be mag
ic in the name. The democ-
racy of Tennessee could do
worse than nominate Bob
Taylor.

in his charge that Mr.. Patter-

ring his late canvass for con-
gress, in which he was sue
cessful, Col. Patterson made
speeches in every county in
the Tenth Congressional Dis
trict of Tennessee. So fair,
honorable, even-tempered,
just and statesmanlike were
his utterances, that he attract

elsewhere, and he was called
upon to deliver speeches in
the principal cities of the
South. He accepted these

MIR. WILLIS MADE A. STATEMENT
Denies the Stories That Hawaiinns
Dislike Him.

San Francisco April 23.-Albert $. Will
lis. minister from this country to the Ha-
waiian republic. arrived from Honolulu to-
with his family will go TO his old home in
Louisville to spend his three months
leave of absence. He denies absolutely
the stories that he Is persona non grata
with the Hawaiian people or government,
and says that he was not summoned to
Washington upon any complaint of the
Hawaiian government and that no re-
proof has been given by Secretary Olney
for any act of his in Honolulu.
Mr.. Willis says he has received nothing
but kindness from the Hawalians and de-
clares positively that he will return to
his post at Honolulu at the expiration of
his furough.
THE report that / sighted the Hawai-
ians on Washington's birthday" said
Mr.. Willis, lis absolutely untrue. l enter
.ained no one at dinner on that day, but
President Dole of his own volition sent
play during the evening. So far as my
failure to observe the Hawaiian republic
anniversary on January II Is concerned.
that Is a matter which l will discuss only
with the state department. My position
in declining to participate in the cele-
bration was the result of my careful
consideration of the orders under which
| am instructed to represent the United
States at Hawaii beyond the reach of the
telegraph wire and where / must often
act without any special consultation with
the secretary of state"

the matter up with the department, nav

II am In receipt of your letter dated

sum be made Immediately availdb BILE.
Your letter not having been received until
after the sundry civil bill had passed the

with Hon. George L. Shoup. United States
Senator, forwarded to the senate a copy
of your letter for such action as he may
deem proper to take in the matter and
recommended the appropriation Of the
amount asked for. l hope the means may

N HIS REGULAR VACATION
Minister Wills Left Hawaii for No
other Purpose.

Washington, April 23.-Touching the de-
parture of United States Minister Willis
from Honolulu on the 10th inst for the
United States, 1t is learned that the min
lister was granted permission long ago to
take 60-days' vacation from his post
whenever he deemed the conditions war
ranted him absentlng himself from the
Islands. If his refusal to participate in
the ceremonies attending the celebration
of the Hawaiian independence day Jan
uary II last. has been made a subject of
official complaint by the Hawaiian govern
ment the fact can not be confirmed here.
Although Secretary Olney could not be
communicated with respecting the mat
ter, II Is believed that If there has been
such complaint 1t has not yet reached
the state department, but remains to be
forwarded. There Is good reason for the
belief that the administration felt that
Willis had acted without proper consid-
Grafton in this matter in view of the fact
that the present Hawaiian government
has been officially recognized by the
United States government. but there is
no evidence that the subject has been The
cause of correspondence between the two
governments and as to Wills return 10
Hawaii 1t Is probable that will be left
to his own determination.

to find 1t widen out as they go dow
Pure gold is visible In this rock
Another assay received in Wilbur Ic-
Gently from ore on another ledge only
shows 81 cents worth of gold and IS cents

tons of this ore to pay the assayer's
charges.

pacity, besides shipping ore from a prop
crty on Palmer mountain to the Ever 1T

saying from 5000 to $500 per ton and the
ore they are now handling is of the higa-

Republican Senators at Washington
Held Brief Caucus.

Washington. April 23-The republican
senators held brief caucus today Sena-
tor Chandler suggested that adjournment
ought to be possible by May /. and was
supported in this opinion by the almost
unanimous vote of the caucus.
1t was the general opinion that the
appropriation bills should be kept to the
front until disposed of. and no more ad-
journments over Saturday are contemplate
ed. Senator Sherman was authorized, as
chairman of the caucus, to appoint a
steering committee of nine to take charge
of details to the order of business in
case 1t was found possible to consider 9th
er than appropriation bills.
Considerable interest was manifested
in the caucus as to the attitude of the
democrats on the subject of adjournment
but no one was able to give definite in
formation on this point. Senator Sherman
appointed Messrs. Allison. Aldrich. Hale

and Prltchard as the steering committee

When the British rallied and drove back
the Matabeles they were engaged with
only portion OF the Matabele force, and
soon as the enemy swarmed over the
ridges in large number they almost sur
rounded the British. compelling the lat
ter to retreat. The squad of troopers pre-
viously said to have been for time quite
cut off and only able to extricate itself by
a brilliant charge through the Matabele
Gordon. was Captain Gray's scouts. They
were to a certain degree ambushed and
almost in the hands of the enemy, when,
by a desperate rush, they extr.cated
themselves.
1t is now said that both the Hotchkiss
and the Maxim rapid firing guns worked
badly. and were only used for a compare
lively short time. No correct estimate
of the killed or wounded has yet been re-
ceived. the only statement made on the
subject being that OF the official report.
which says that the British loss was very
slight and that the Matabeles lost very
heavily.
The opinion is gaining that the British
suffered a bad defeat, and that the Mata-
belle loss was not so great as at first re-
ported.
