City Of Country People.

My Blue Ridge Mountain suggestion
is stlll further emphasized by the gem
eral appearance of many of tn. citl-
gems. and 1 believe that also llnd n
correspondence in the type. No people
can be accurately measured by theI-
city representatives. The real life of a
nation is It's country life. The real peo-
pie of a nation are the country people.
The Boer is emphntically country
man. Pretoria is but the capital city
Of a country people. 1t is a mistake to
regard them as barbarous simply be-
cause they are not well dressed. The
clothes of Reuben Hayseed, of HllIvlue,
may look like the deuce, yet Reuben
and his Transvaal counterpart, will be
quite certain to treat a strange visitor
or a friend in his own home with the
utmost OF his possible hospitality.

FOR MURDER OF MAT TOOLE
CHARLES SMITH, A WHITE MAN,
CHARGED WITH THE CRIME.
cret Until Yesterday-The OfHcers
Were Looking for Evidence.

The facts in a sensational incident that
occurred last Saturday were mase public
In the sherih's office yesterday. The in
cident has a bearing on the killing Of Mat
Toole, which occurred in the Fifth ward
dui ng the first part of the month of June.
1t will be remembered that MAJ Too.e
was shot near the Cleveland compress one
Eight and the identity OF his assalant
was a mystery. One of the three sh3 ITS
fred penetrated Toole's left groin and he
was token 10 st. Josephs inhrmary, where
he died a few days afterward. The only
possible clue to the identity of the man
who shot Toole was the cry OF a negro
woman, the only other person pfesen&, who
said: "Oh. Jesse, for Gods sake, don't
Kill US" The affair happened at ni,ht
and it was too dark to distinguish per-
sons with any degree OF certainly. The
woman says she called the name OF Jesse
because she imagined it was her sweet
heart and that ne had come to Kill her
and Toole.
on that evidence the officers arrested
Jesse Meyers. negro, and charged hun
with the crime. 1t seems now that Sher-
if Anderson was not VIII lily satisfied with
the arrest OF Meyers on the charge, Tor
in a few days after the negro had been
arrested he and Deputy Wynne commenced
to work on the case in another direction,
They have worked ortinuously since
then and on Saturday morning Charles
Smith, Il white ~ood peidler. residing In
the vicinity IN which Toole was XII rel,
was arrested on a warrant from justice

Deputy Wynne made the arrest while
Smith was on Market square with his team
