SHERMAN SCORES ALGER.
Chicago News.

Chicago News.
The inirmities of age have laid their
touch upon John Sherman, but there is
no indication of weakness i'm the Ian
guage the eX-Secretary of State is re-
ported to have used about the conduct of
the Cuban campaign. In an interview
in the New York Times, Mr.. Sherman
says:
1.-THE man who is responsible for the
acknowledgement of the Cuban campaign,
resulting in the needless loss of scores
of American soldiers lives. and in the
inhiction of horrible tortures upon thou
sands of the brave defenders of their
country's honor, should not be in the
Cabinet"
Speaking of the Santiago horrors, he
declares that if the charges are true
the officials who are responsible should
be severely punished. In the opinion of
Mr.. Sherman, and it may be added of
the American people, President McKin-
ley has been active and diligent in the
conduct of the war. The President,
however, owes it to himself and the
country to order an investigation of the
criminal negligence and incompetency,
to call it by no harSher name, of the
War Department. If he does not order
such an investigation Congress, as Mr..
Sherman says, "holds the power to inn
peach the Secretary of War and can
infict a punishment that will mean ever
lasting disgrace in case of conviction.
1t is now reported at Washington that
President Mckinley will order an in
vestigation of the War Department
scandal. The country demands it and
the sooner the better for the good of the
army.

Politicians are now planning for the

but there may be a dark horse" who
will win the race. Popularity has much

with medicine. The most popular RENE

WHERE THE PlE-EATER SLIPS.

There is one mistake that the aggre-
CATION of office-holders having their head
quarters in Raleigh are making-presum-
ing that any considerable number of the
citizens of North Carolina are concerned
as to whether they do or do not stay In
office. There is not a man of the whole
Rad-Pop fusion menagerie that would
under the ordinary condition of public
affairs, have risen to his present posi-
ton.
There is no need therefore for them to
go into patriotic frenzy because the
people of North Carolina have made
up their minds that the interests of the
whole State are of more account than
the appetite for office of a few dozen
very mediocre and very noisy politicians.
The pie-eaters may just as well husband
their strength-they will need it for
making an honest living before they are
many years older.
The self assurance with which these
political tradesmen come before the peO-
pie of the State and request the citizen
body to retain them in office and bear
further with the infamy of the past two
years would be comical, were it not M
sulting. And yet what other reason can
the Rad-Pop fusion advocates give fol-
the proposed barter? Thus far their com
bined versatility has supplied none.
Tine people of North Carolina are an
eminently patient people, they are capa-
ole of great sacrifices as they have
shown time and again, they are an unset
fish people, as people go, but they have
not quite reached that stage of philan-
thropy where they would be willing t.
submit to the bitter degradation OF neg c
rule, the hampering of legitimate indus
try, the retarding of enlightment and
civilization, all that few political hid
gets may wobble around in places they
are incompetent to fill.

TRAGEDY AT MEMPHIS.
Physician Shot by Woman, Who
Commits Suicide.


MEMPHIS. TENN. January IA de-
plorable tragedy occurred in the outskirts
Of Memphis this evening. Dr. Shep. A.
Rogers, professor Of anatomy at the
Memphis Medical College, ex-president of
the Board Of Health, and one Of the most
prominent physicians Of the city. was shot
by Mrs. Mary Sandbrink. a widow, and
tonight lies in a dying condition at St.
Josephs Hospital.
After shooting DR.. Rogers the woman
turned the revolver to her breast and
sent a bullet through her heart.
The cause Of the tragedy is yelled in
the deepest mystery.
Nobody saw the tragedy. farmer
and his hired man went to the assistance
of the wounded man when his cries for
help reached their ears. and he was lifted
into buggy and carried to Memphis for
medical treatment.
DR.. Rogers was shot in the back, the
bullet striking the spinal column. The
body Of the unfortunate woman was re-
moved to the home of relatives
The weapon used by Mrs. Sandbrink
belonged to the woman, being identified
by her relatives when II was shown to
them. There is no doubt but that the
woman committed the deed. Before
lapsing into Inconsistencies DR. Rogers
blamed her for the deed. What can be
gathered i'm connection with the tragedy
substantiates DR.. Rogerss statement.
There were no footprints or other evi-
dences that any struggle had occurred
prior to the tragedy The right hand of
the dead woman was ungloved showing
that she took ample precautions that the
shooting contemplated should not mis-
carry.
Mrs. Sandbrink was stylishly dressed.
Every effort is being made by the police
and reporters to discover the cause of
the shooting. but up to a late hour to-
night the mystery has not been un-
ravelled. 1t is said that the woman was
infatuated with the physician. and on
other occasions had threatened herself In
his presence.
Later.-Dr. Rogers regained conscious
ness for a few minutes tonight. He
made a statement to the effect that Mrs.
Sandbrink decoyed him To the fatal spot
by writing him a note He says the wo-
man had greatly annoyed him with her
attentions. and threatened TO shoot him
on several occasions.
Physicians say there Is a bare chance
for his recovery. but that the entire lower
part of the body will be permanently
paralyzed
'The family Of the dead woman has not
as yet made a statement. but 1t is under
stood that they claim that Dr. Rogers
was engaged TO BE- married TO Mrs. Sand
brink but for some reason did not carry
out his intentions.
