 'One of the specifications to the charges set out an open defiance on the part of Scott of Colonel Colson's authority in the presence of other officers, and he harbored desperado and bad character in his quar- ters after the colonel had issued orders for his expulsion from the camp. .rs
 Serious Trouble Threated
 'General Frank scented serious trouble, and being of a peaceable nature, sought to patch up the trouble as the regiment was soon to be mustered out, and induced Uhe colonel to withdraw the charges.
 The regiment was much divided be- tween the two, but both Scott and Col son were known to be fearless and not in- cdned to brook much talk, gossip was rath- GIT felt than heard Afxer this things were quiet until the regiment was mustered out.
 The day after that ceremony was con- pleted hostilfties began in earnest. Leuten- ant Scott was dining at restaurant with a panty of friends. Colonel Coson entered, and giving his order for dinner. proceeded to the only vacant seat at the table where Scott and his friends were seated, appar- ently not noticing the presence of the lat ter until some remarks made by Scott at tracted his attention. Colonel Colson thought it was intended as an insult.
 Just what followed next it is impossible to say, but Scott arose deliberately and quietly laid down his napkin, pushed his chair to the table and stepping behind it raised his pistol. As he did this Colson fired, the ball passing through the space Scott had just vacated.
 'I don't know who fired first" said a witness, ''but several shots were exchanged, one lodging in Col sons groin. from the effects of which it is said he will never recover. No notice was taken of the matter by the military au- thorities as the men had been mustered out The civil authorities also ignored 1t. After the shooting Colson was carried to his room and Scott went home Shortly af- ter Colonel Colson's recovery he went to Washington to wind up his congressional affairs

TITLES CHEAP FOR CASH.
II You Want to BE n Prince buy tho
Honor In Italy.

II You Want to BE Prince buy the
Honor In Italy.
\ Throughout Europe Italian titles Of
nobility do not enjoy very high rep
utation; so much so that, as general
rule, mere Australian baron is more
highly considered than an Italian mar
quis, says the London Mail. One ex-
PLANTATION Of this fact is that many of
these Italian mobiles with high-sound-
ing handles to their names are not in
very enviable financial situation.
Many astounding instances may be
cited of Italian dukes and counts who
occupy the strangest positions abroad.
Some are coaehmen, others hotel por-
tiers, one is an interpreter in railway
station, another is butler in the family
of an American millionaire. In New
York there Is we'll known Italian
count who has run an elevator for
several years past. In southern Italy,
where poverty Is greater than in other
portions of the peninsula, the great
noble families are compelled to resort
to the most extraordinary strategems
to save appearances. In Naples poor
families have adopted a system of mu-
tual carriages and horses, which is
somewhat curious. Five or six families
agree to pay the expenses of a luxu-
rious establishment, generally four
finland, with coachman and footman.
The carriage door, with the various
coats of arms of the different families,
Is alone changed, according to the fam
lily which uses the carriage. On great
occasions these families draw lots to
see which shall use the carriage and
horses. But strange fact is that
now, when SO many noble families
have become impoverished, the Italian
government is about to increase the
price Of titles. In future the man
who wishes to bear a princes crown
must pay $4,000 to the government;
to become duke $4,000 is sufficient;
for $4,000 one may be marquis. and
for $4,000 count; $2,40e is sufficient
to become baron, and s., 900 for the
simple prefix de" These figures ap-
ply only to the titles conferred by the
king. Besides these royal titles are
the dignities conferred by the pope,
with which several American mer-
chants and business men have been
honored. These papal titles are some
what cheaper than those conferred by
the king. At the Vatican brand
new count may be created for 81, 400,
and marquis for $4,000. American
amateurs should take note of this fact.
1t Is hardly necessary to add that the
proud old Italian aristocrats look down
with the greatest contempt on these
parvenu noblemen, whether created by
the king or the pope. These proud
Italian aristocarts of ancient lineage,
such as the Colonna, the Borghese, the
Orsini of Rome. the Strozzi of Flor
'ence. and the viscomte of Milan, con-
slider themselves vastly superior to the
most ancient mobiles of France and
Great Britain and the equals OF most
royal families. Some of the old Roman
mobiles even claim direct descent from
the days Of ancient Rome.

THURSTON CHAMPIONS
UNION REPUBLICANS

On Wednesday the Republican Ma
tional Executive Committee will decide
contests among delegations to the Ma
tional Convention and the first cise
which that committee will handle will
be the one from Delaware. Most of the
Union Republican plans have been ma
tured with such secrecy that the an
nouncement that Senator John M.
Thurston of Nebraska, would appear be-
fore the national committee to advocate
the justice of the Union Republicans in
asking admission to the convention has
caused great stir in the ranks of the
Anti-Addicks Republicans.
On the floor of the st. Louis Conven-
tion, four years ago, Senator Thurston
was the spokesman for the Regular Re-
publicans of Delaware, and it was large.
ly due to his earnest advocacy of their
claims, and his bitter denunciation ol
the claims set forth by the Union Repub-
licans, that the latter were thrown out
of the convention and the Regulars were
seated.
This time, however, Thurston, is in
line with the majority party, and it is
announced that he will make the argl-
ment in favor Of seating the Union Re.

UNION REPUBLICAN
PARTY Is RIGHT.

From the Dover State sentinel.s
The delegates to the Philadel-
phia convention, chosen by the Union
Republican party, will be seated. Ofthis
we have not the slightest doubt. But
suppose they are not. That will not
swerve the party one hairs breadth from
the line marked out. 1t will still battle
for the principles of the Republican
party of old.
This recalls the alternative presented,
few daye ago, to member Of that fac
tion that calls itself regular and boasts of
its party and Hnhalting allegiance to the
administration. He was asked what
would become OF his party if it was de-
MED recognition at the National Conven-
tion. His reply was, 'If we are not
seated we are all gone to -" This
man is recent appointee to Federal
office in the Law Department of the
Government. Later than this, indeed,
this very week, the question was asked
of another so-called regular. "What will
we (the Union Repuhicaas) do if they
are not seated?" His reply was, 81 be-
lieve you fellows will still go on fghtirg
the battle of Republicanism " Then the
alternvtiye was put. "What will your
dupont crowd do il they are not seated?'

OFFICIAL Is 0VERPAID.

From the Georgetown Union Republican
We repeat that the allowances
to the clerk of the peace are out of pro-
portion to the emoluments of our other
public offices; that they are out of pro-
portion to the work done; that they
should be reduced; that the office should
be placed upon salaried basis; that this
is the only way to help those who pay
the taxes by freeing the Levy Courts
from manipulations and wire -pulings, il
not worse. This is a matter that con-
Germs every man who pays tax, and he
has right to understand where his
money goes, and whether it goes Justly
or unjustly, extravagantly or economi-
cally; and if it can be brought to his at
tention that there are offices in our
midst where only ordinary capacity is
required, getting ont of the public treas
ury year alter year, more money than
the people pay their Governor, their
judges, their many other public offices
of necessarily greater responsibility, it is
right to do SO in order that he NAV act
intelligentlv as to whether it is to be
continued, or ended. We propose to
give the information if possible. There
was time when growls and threats
from certain sources intimidated those
who ATTEMPTED to state the facts to the
people. "1t don't 60 now."

ASHBRIDGE ACTED PROPERLY
From the Sunday Star.

From the Sunday Star.
The very good people of Philadelphia
and elsewhere who are finding fault
with Mayor Ashbridge of that CITY, be-
cause he declines to dismiss Director of
Public Safety English, at the instigation
of Mr.. John Wanamaker, appear to us
to have gotten the cart before the horse.
The charge against Mr.. English being
OF criminal character, the obvious
course would be to have him arrested
and tried in the ordinary way. There
appears to be no good reason why Mayor
Ashbridge should usurp the functions Of
the courts and attempt to perform per-
sonally the duties that specifically de-
yolve upon judge and jury. The fact
that Mr.. Wanamaker and those who are
backing him do not adopt this only
proper method OF bringing to account a
person who is ci arged with criminal
offense does not imply any great amount
OF confidence on their part in the
strength OF their accusation. **

A DREAM OF THE LEADERS.

There have been claims made that the
Democratic party will win in the coming
campaign, because the Republicans will
have two tickets in the field This is a
dream of the leaders. In the first place it
is by no means certain there will be two
tickets, and in the second place it is
doubtful if the Democratic party could
win anything worth having ii there were
two tickets in the field. TIE Regular Re-
publicans will carry majority of the
legislative districts in New Castle county
without the assistance of the Union Re
publicans, though Of course they would
carry more with their assistance. In
Kent county the Union Republicans can
certainly carry the county against the
Democrats without the assistance OF the
Regulars, unless the Regular Repub ian
party has had phenomenal increase since
the last election. In Sussex county there
a e districts which the Union Republi
cans can carry without tn assistance I I
the Regulars, and others which the Re :
- 'sn'av carry without the assistance
of the Union iieIrbli ans.
