Literary Notes.

Louisa "A. Alcott Is said to reveal
herself In most interesting way In q
number Of letters written 10 Ave little
gtrls) which are to appear In The
April Ladies Home journal. These
letters were written during the busiest
peroid OF Miss Alcott's life, and present
. pen picture of the author drawn by
her own master hand. In these she
talks with singular frankness Of her.
self, her work, her aims, her home,
her spiritual belief, and Of the influence
that directed her to literature. She
never saw any Of her live correspon.
dents, but their youthful frankness, In
tense interest in all her writings, and
their love for the author and for the
characters Of her creations, impelled
her to turn aside from her work and
cares to find diversion in chats with
such eagerly enthusiastic, admiring
and sympathetic friends. Miss Alcott's
first letter is dated 1872 and the others
were written at intervals up to within
q short time Of her death.

is altogether too serious q matter for
jocularity. Those who perpetrated the

vermillion Republican: Michael
Odland and Miss Isabel Larson were
married at the home Of the bride in
Norway township on Wednesday OF this
week. This was somewhat Of sur
prise to Mikes many friends, but they
all join in extending congratulations
just the same. Our worthy ex-treas-
urer and ex-register Of deeds Is one OF
the best OF Clay county's young men,
and his bride comes from one of the
best families in the county, and their
large circle Of friends, whose name is
legion, join in extending to them the
best wishes for happy and prosperous
married life.
Fitzgerald Enterprise: Last Mon
day Messrs. |. N. LOwshan aud A. p.
Hird made q personal canvass Of Fitz-
gerald to find out the number Of busi-
ness houses and residences, just for
their own satisfaction. They found
within the limits Of the city 745 places
where people lived, and 139 business
houses, not including hotels and real
estate Offices. Counting In the So resi-
dences just east Of Monitor drive. which
are practically in the city, we have a
total Of 8O4. This count nis not abso-
lutely correct, but will come very close
to the truth. We are glad to publish
statistics such as these, for they show
the public just how We are growing.
Fitzgerald Enterprise: The negroes
at work here laying track and grading
Tor the G. & A., are paid ninety cents
per day, where they board themselves,
and eeventy-five cents where the COM
pany boards them. They are charged
five cents per meal or can cook for
themselves. The meal is . very coarse
one, consisting Of ''6ap-jacks and SOW
belly" The hunks ia which they sleep
are not very inviting, to say the least.
Nevertheless they seem to get ralOng
very well. Their work Is accompanied
by 9 monotonous song, which sounds
rather peculiar to one unaccustOmed to
It. An Overseer Is constantly present
to prevent too much shirklng and to

AN ANGRY OFFICER.
Col. Ludlow, of the Engineer Corps,
Has n Tilt with Mr.. DooIittle.

WASHINGTON, May THE Nicaraguan
canal hearing before the House committee
on commerce to-day was enlivened by an ex-
ceedingly tart colloquy between Colonel Lud-
low, the chairman of the government COM
mission, and Representative Dooltte, Of
Washington. The character of Mr. Davis,
an engineer who had assisted the commits
sion in Nicaragua, and whose statement, re-
peated by Colonel Ludlow that no other
engineer than the members of the govern
ment commission had ever traversed the en-
tire canal route, was the cause of the con-
troversy. Ex-senator Warner Miller had
spoken Of Mr.. Davis as discharged and dis
credited employee Of the canal company. Col
onel Ludlow was endeavoring to establish
the high standing of Mr.. Davis as an engi-
neer, when Mr.. Doolittle remarked that,
having already used Davis to vilify the
company, it was needless for Colonel Lud-
low to try to bolster up his evidence
Thereupon Mr.. Ludlow replied: II repre-
sent the government Of the United States
here, and have no purpose but to establish
the truth. Mr.. Doolittle will doubtless have
all the time ne wants to comment on my
evidence, but insist that he shall not take
my time"
Il am a member OF this committee" Mr.
Doolittle responded. holly, land / have my
rights, and you shall not trample over them
with all your topheaviness.'
Colonel Ludlow complained that there had
been disposition to treat the commission as
though its members were recalcitrant wit
nesses who were trying to conceal the truth.
what interest does he represent here other
than the one We do?' he asked, referring
to Mr.. Dooiittle.
''I represent my constituents, and that's all
] 20 represent" replied the member, and
added: If you have any other insinuations
/ hope you will not hesitate to make them''
This is all unseemly and undignified and
no man can say that l provoked it," re-
turned the Colonel, and then the chairman
called the committee to order. while other
members expostulated against the ''spat.'
Colonel Ludlow spoke again on the engineers
ing features Of the project and was followed
by Lieutenant Menocal, who made brief
statement.
Another belligerent incident closed the
hearing. A gentleman announced himself as
McIvor IAN officer of the late Confederate
States army and military adviser to the
President of Costa Rica,' and demanded
that he be heard. and when the committee
adjourned without hearing him, burst into a
violent TRADE. declaring that he hal been
insulted by parcel of dogs and denounc-
ing Colonel Ludlow as the head of a black
conspiracy against the canal and tool of a
corrupt administration

Der from his store tonight Thomas J. Mar
shall, proprietor of the Golden Rule dry
goods store, Nos. 278 to 2S2 West Madison
street. was shot twice and died a few mo-
ments later on the sidewalk in front of
his place. The robber escaped after firing
several shots to intimidate the people in
the street. He wounded two other persons.
They are Alexander Beggs, shot in the left
leg, and Katie Hynes, shot through both
knees. The robber. who is said to be
young man not over twenty-five or twenty
three years old. entered the store. and.
while man, now thought to be confed-
crate, was engaging the attention of Mar
shall. ne approached Miss Matte Garrett
son, the cashier, and demanded what
money she had. She screamed, and Mar
shall came to her aid, chasing the young
fellow out TO the sidewalk. Just as Mar
shall emerged from the door the robber
turned on him and fired twice, both bullets
entering Marshalls breast and causing his
death before he could be carried into the
store. Just as the shooting occurred a ca
BILE car stopped on West Madison street,
just in front of Marshalps door,. Many of
the passengers. hearing the shots, jumped
up to see what the matter was. The MUIR
derer, thinking they were about to inter-
cept him, as he had started to run across
the track to escape, emptied his revolver
at the crowded car. One bullet hit Miss
Hynes and another struck Mr.. Beggs, who
was walking along the s-Tcet nearly
block away. The fellow then ran north on
Ann street. lodged into an alley and es-
capped. No arrests have been made as yet.
West Madison street is a very crowded
street after nightfall, and the murder was
committed in the sight of a hundred peo-
ple but was done so quickly there was no
chance to apprehend the murderer.
The police have sent out orders to arrest
two men who are known by the names Of
Samuel of Posen" and the Mexican" A
third man, named Geohegan, is also being
looked for. as he was seen on the North Side
a short time after the murder. walking very
fast. and looked as though he had been
running for long distance.
Late tonight it was said that Mrs. Mynes
was very badly injured and her death is
probable.

Kid Mccoy came into The ring smiling
and confident. weighing 154 pounds He was
in the pink of condition. Charley White and
Sam Tonkins were his seconds. Corbett's
ex-sparring partner, Jim Daily, of Buffalo,
accompanied by his seconds, Peter Butler
and Jack McTiernan. Harry Boiand and
Charley Kelly. was very slow in getting into
the ring. DAILY was by far the heavier OF
the two weighing 16S pounds.
Round MCCOY landed left jab on the
body and left swing on the face. he foi-
lowed with let's on the face and body and

Buffalonian to grass with a hard left on the
face.
