Sheriff A. D. Shewsburg of Sherman,
Tex, has been arrested by the Sheriff
of White county, Tenn. Sheriff
Shrewsbury holds requisition papers
for two men-Jim Kirkendark and Z. NJ.
Skirlock-wanted in Texas for minor
offenses alleged to have been committed
several years ago, and his attempt to
proceed under this authority has caused
the trouble. He made his arrests in
Dekalb county and started at once for
Texas. At Sparta, where a stop was
made over night, the officer was
awakened late at night by service of
writ of habeas corpus issued by Judge
Smith of White county, ordering the
surrender of the prisoners, on the
ground of illegal detention. Shews-
burg at once proceeded to the Jail, and
securing his prisoners, started ont of
town, but was stopped by the Tennessee
sheriff, who arrested him, charging
illegal attempt to remove prisoners
from the State and contempt.

The ball in the house of representa-

The hall was elaborately decorated. a

mounting the clerks desk, and stream
ers setting off the bare stone walls in
fine style. The galleries and floor were
packed, and it was with difficulty the
dancers could proceed. Gov. McMillin
and Mrs. ]. NJ. Head and Mayor Head
and Mrs. McMillin led the grand march.
A constant stream of people poured up
and down Capitol hill, and it was Iy all
odds the gayest social event in the cap-
ital in years.
The delay in the arrival of the trains
greatly discomfitted the ladies in charge
of the breakfast and dinner for the
regiment. Many of the men did not
eat breakfast, but left the depot with
friends as soon as they could get out of
the crowd. By the time the proceed
ings at the Tabernacle were over most
of the men were hungry, and with vis-
iting guardsmen and Confederate
veterans were fed at Amusement hall.
There was oceans of stuff for all, and
much food was left.
