Drove Over II Prccipice.

ALTOONA, Pa, Jan. 26.-About ten
o'clock last night a Shedding party of
twenty persons from Tyrone drove
into a quarry six miles below
that place. The horses, sled and
occupants were precipitated % the
bottom of a precipice where they
lay in a great mass. AS soon as the
news reached Tyrone a special train
was fitted out and all the doctors in
the town were conveyed to the scene
of the catastrophe. The party was most
ly made up of young people. Boys
and girls with arms and legs broken
and with blood streaming from their
wounds lay in great drifts of snow,
slowly perishing from the intense cold.
The mercury stood at three degrees be-
low zero, adding to the horror of the
catastrophe. Latest reports say that
none are dead, though about g dozen
are seriously injured.

DR. CURRY ON EDUCATIoN.-Dr. Cur
ry yesterday addressed the North Caro-.
lima Legislature by special invitation on
education. Governor Russell and other
State officers were present. DR.. Curry
said it was a calamitous mistake of re-
construction to impose manhood suf-
frage without any conditions. There
would always be ballot box frauds so
long as there was ignorance. He de-
clared that if legislation did not elevate
the blacks the latter would drag chem
selves down to the nethermost hell OF ig-
ORANGE. He pleaded for longer tests for
the common schools and ridiculed the
sixty day terms. He expressed the
positive belief that no man should be
allowed to vote who was not able to
read his ballot. He had heard a legis.
lator say that day North. Carolina
is too poor to educate her children"
His declaration was not to educate
them" He said a great mistake had
been made two years ago in abolishing
supervision of schools. Speaking Of
the Normal and Industrial School, Of
Greensboro, he said that its success was
unparalleled in the history of educa-
tional institutions in the United
States. The colored normal schools be
asserted were not really normal schools
and he gave notice that he would with
draw the Peabody fund from them. He
termed Governor Johnson, of Alabama,
who is a North C%arolinian, "The School
Governor of the South" By a rising
vote the Legislature thanked DR.. Curry,
and Governor Russell thanked him in
words.

A WARNING TO MRS. IRWIl

- nAJl1NlANN ~ N94tSs -
A committee composed of leading
citizens of Charles county has been
formed to prevent the permanent re-
turn to that county of Mrs. James j. IT.
win, who was recently acquitted of be-
ing an accessory to the murder of her
husband by George Matthews, who will
be hanged March u for the crime.
The object of the committee is to
wait personally upon Mrs. Irwin, should
she return to her old home, and give
her q definite number of hours to leave
the county forever.
1--WE heard" said one of the commit
lee, "tbat this woman would return
here to live. We consider her presence
q menace to good morals. Her acquit-
tai is sincerely regretted, and as she
failed to get what we think the law
should have given her, we do not pro-
pose to have her turned loose on us.
Her brother has been told that
Mrs. Irwin had better not come back.
While there would be no attempt to
lynch her, 1 am not prepared to say
what punishment the good citizens OF
this county might give her"
The %concensus of opinion in the
county is to the effect that Mrs. Irwin
should share the fate Of Matthews. No
sympathy is expressed for Matthews,
who is roundly denounced in the
ty for his refusal to testify against Mrs.
Irwin. Just why he should have TAX
en- this course is a puzzle to those who
have known him all his life.
Said one prominent citizen: MAT
thews suddenly adopted this course,
for he spoke violently against Mrs.
Irwin when he was convicted. We
think his course was influenced by q
hope of executive clemency."
The bitterness which pervades the
entire community over the result of the
trial is strongest, probably, among the
ladies. There are no exceptions. All
the women say that Mrs. Irwin insti-
gated the murder and should feel the
full penalty of the law. One lady,
speaking of the release of Mrs. Irwin,
said: Il cannot see why the men
should object to Matthews being re-
leased. If the women of Charles county
have to put up with the presence of
such a woman as Mrs. irwin, / should
think the men could tolerate Mat
thews."
The Jackson boys, who are brothers
of Mrs. Irwin, say that she will not re-
turn to the county, but will make her
home in Baltimore city, where she will
place her two children in an institution
and it is understood that a petition for
elemency to George Matthews, convict
ed of the murder of irwin, will be sent
to the Observation-Disclosures Sun.
