while impatiently waiting for the sea
son to open he would get out his new
gun, handle with affection and die.
course on Its merits and its beauty
Until bis wife and especially his iail
daughter, Mary, became weary Of even
the subject of guns. And yet, after
discovering that his gun was not a.
interesting to Himsslfj he needed only
an lntimat1on to make him bring It
out for exhibition With pleasure
Mics Mary Edwards had bean and
she rather nked him, but held him
somewhat al srra.' lenssh-en proba-
ton, as It were. Miss Mary had 8 Nv
ing heart, sparkling eye and keen
sense Of humor. Her beau, Mr.. Rich
ard Wlldman, called to see her and
they chatsed pleasantly In the parlor
while Nj: and Mrs. Edwards made
themselves comfortable in the Sitting
room across the hall.
"1'm going to kiss you," eaid Mr..
Wlldman to Miss Mary.
"If you dare" eaid the young lady,
|"IIl certalnly: make you regret it."
"But really afh going to-" said Mr..
Wildman.
eff you do I'll go tell papa" said
Miss Mary, with twinkle in her eye
and without the slightest attempt to
get out of the way. Taking her non-
chalanee for a woman's consent, be
grabbed and 'kissed het. She promp.
tly whacked him on tie. cheek with
her hand aud then leaving the room
and walking across the hall, said to her
father, with the sweetest of sweet
smiles: "Papa, I've been telling Mr..
Wildman about your new gun and he
asks if you won't show it to him."
Certainly, with great pleasure" said
Mr.. Edwards, delighted to have some
one take an interest in his new pet
Picking up the gun he walked with
expectant pleasure into the parlor.
Mr.. Wlldman was waiting somewhat
doubting the girls purpose.
When the man with the gun came
in this door Mr.. Wildmanis doubts,
accompanied by Mr.. Wildman himself,
went out of the window without even
taking the precautlon to raise the
sash.
Mr.. Edwards looked around at bis
daughter dumb-iounded. She laughed
till she could no longer stand. Hold
ing her heart in her hands, She said
Father, you must be carefdl how you
go at people with that gun. Really, II
I di(Dlt know you we'll, I should have
been sure several times you meant to
shoot me with it. You must be more
careful. How am ever to get mar
ried if you run my beaux off like that
Take tie horrld old gun away"
Miss Mary and her mother often
talk, soto voce, about guns, and laugh
to Mr.. Edwards discontinue.
Mr.. Wildman is still missing.

While the Speaker of the next House
OF Congress is already named in Col.
Henderson, of Iowa, 1t is interesting to
note scme things concerning the Dem
ocrats who will be brought forward by
their party. There are three men
aspiring to this nomination. The
leading candidate is James D. Richard
son, of Tennessee. Being an active
memter of the House and thoroughly
vereed in all parliamentary law, he
will be a strong man for the ncm-
ination by the Democrats.
David A. DeArmond, of Missouri, 10
also a candidate. He is the candidate
of Richard P. Bland, the great silver
leader, who before his death wrote the
Democratic members OF the House to
support Mr.. DeArmond, who has been
in the House eight years.
John III. Bankhead, of Alabama, who
has been in the House twelve years,
is the third candidate tor the leadership
on the Democratic side, for that is
what the nomination for Speaker by
the minority means. It Is an impor-
tant matter. The man who shall be
nominated BY the Democrats, it be
remain in Congress until the Dem
ocrats are again in the majority, will be
the Speaker of the House then.
Dispensaries will nc: doubt be made
almost general by the next General
Assembly of North Carolina. Wherev-
or they have been tried they. have
met with the approval of their first
advocates and in some places by those
who at first opposed them. We heard

which has no bar-rooms, and who was
not too strongly in favor OF running

that he did not want them In his town

Defeat of the War


Defeat Of the War
London. Dec. I4-Each importan,
battle seems to bring worse reverse for
the British and the papers this morning
sorrowfully admit that Lord Me,hueh' 5
check at Magersiontein is the most seri-
Gus event the war has yet produced. The
Morning Pos, says: I'VE have had our
day Of humiliation appointed for US. Let
us accept !, humbly and soberly and be
better and stronger for the lesson 1t has
taugh' US. This last reverse will make
US fresh butt OF Europe. There never
was more apt occasion to prove 10
Europe what we are worth"
The position Lord Methuen assaulted
is thus described by correspondent:
"Magersfontein range terminates on
the east with an abrupt saddle rock.
some $50 feet high. Boer in,renchments
run around the whole 'front.' The posi-
ton is some two miles long due east and
west. The western end Of the trenches
follow the contour OF the kopjes and af
ford retreat"
II is estimated here that Lord Meth
uen's forces amounted to II 900 and per
haps to more. No reliable estimate o.
his losses has yet been received. They
are believed to have been at least $50.

London, Dec. I4-General Lord Me-

north of the Modder river exceeded l..
900. OF these the Highland brigade alone
lost 53 officers and go men killed. wound
ed and missing. The endless list of the
casualties began coming into the war OF

affecting scenes are witnessed. The vi

with men and women and all signs OF
class distinctions fade in the presence OF
the common grief.
The total number OF names thus far re-
ceived Of wounded and killed is Sag. This
is more than was expected from Lord
Methuen's dispatch of yesterday. AS

great fear is felt for his Communications

j. f. Toole in "KilIarney."

j. E. Toole, a German dialect come
dian, with the help of good supporting
company, presented Killarney and The
Rhine" four act romantic comedy
drama by Edward Jerome, at Campbell's
Empire theatre last evening. Toole is
the Giving picture" of fun-loving but
very earnest and dramatic at times,
German. In shape he is short and
broad, his face, although large, having a
rather simple, boyish expression. His
wit and funny salies were decidedly
original. If the applause given is to be
considered as the chief factor, he pleased
his audience greatly, as loud demonstra-
tions of approval were given him con-
stantly. There is nothing specially
prominent or noticeable about the play
1t is simply a repetition of the old, old
story, with new surroundings and a
slight change in the situation all around
The same high and low villains appear,
the same wrongs are done, but all is
righted In the last act, and the audience
is sent away satisfied.
During the evening Mr.. Tooe and
Miss Gardner sang the following songs
composed by Mr.. Toole: Dancing in
the Lane" 80, Come Along" 1.-THE
Nightingale" Love in Bloom" 81
Sing You Lullaby" and Schneider. -
