A Defence OF Gossip.

There are two sides to everything.
The adage was once more proved the
other day at dinner table. when a
young woman took up the cudgels in
defense of gossip.
Mans interest in the minor affairs
of his neighhor is older than most
other things" she said. 1T dates from
the era before the food; the patriarchs
who dwelt in tents doubtless found oc-
casion to rebuke it in their wives and
daughters. A vice is none the less 2
vice for bearing the stamp of an
tiauity. Granted. But then need We
treat an irfquiring spirit in little things
as altogether vicious? Surely there il

A College Literary Census.

During the last year an interesting
literary census has been taken among
the undergraduates of Princeton Uni
versity. This census was undertaken
to find out what was the literary at
mosphcrc" of the university, about
which so many conflicting reports have
been made. No man had a large and
varied enough acquaintance among the
students to estimate their literary life
correctly. If his intimate friends Were
studious, ne would say that the stand
ard was very high; at the same time
another man, better acquainted with
the loafing crowd, would give a very
Idiscouraging estimate.
| But since the actual record has been
compiled in figures and percentages. it
| is easy to reach a more adequate esti-
mate of the reading of the undergrad
yates. An important motive was to en-
courage each student to read the
standard books contained in the census
| list. Ignorance and carelessness are
perhaps the chief cause Of a shallow
acquaintance with good literature. and
| when a man makes a bibliographical
inventory. such as this census necessi-
tated, he is brought sharply to a cor
rect appreciation of his defects.
| A list OF books was drawn up and sub

 Windows and Curtains Down
 "The windows and curtains were down. A rifle was lying by one of the windows with the butt toward the east. There was also a rife in each corner on the left side of the room Two were of 3S-calibre. l examined them to see if they had been re- gently fired. l am positive that two or them were loaded, but am not sure as to the other one. I soiled my hands, but l do not know that this was done by powder. l don't know where that rife Is now.
 "The extreme west window was raised about four inches when I inspected the room"
 MT. Matthews continued:
 "I have talked with Caleb Powers in re- gard to Youtsey. He told me he loaned Youtsey the key to his office on two occa- sions, but did not say when. Powers told me of a meeting in his office to appoint cap tains to take charge of the witnesses be- fore the contest boards. Culton presided. He told me that Burton of Breckinridge county made fiery speech advocating pow der and ball. Powers called Burton to or der, but added that he was in favor of an open declaration of war, and believed the people would endorse it."
 It developed during Matthews testimony that Governor Taylor issued pardons to John l.. Powers, Harlan Whitaker, Charles Finley and w. H. Culton, as well as to Caleb Powers and John Davis. Matthews entered all of the pardons in the executive journal March To- He said no other pardons had been granted.
 Witness was formerly detective and at the instance of Caleb Powers had done all he could to ferret out the assassin. Public Printer, George G. Fetter told of printing badges for Caleb Powers and John Powers which were used by the 1,200 mountain men on January 25. Private Dudley William son, who was with the soldiers in the ar senal sal that they got marching orders one hour before the assassination, and were uniformed and armed at the time of the tragedy. The soldiers did not know what had happened until they got almost to the state house.

PREACHER KILLS
 A STENOGRAP HER Sensational Shooting Affair Be- tween Prominent Men
 in South Carolina.

Charleston, s. C., May 4-One of the most sensational homicides in the history of Bamburg, this state, occurred today, when Rev. W. E. Johnson, pastor of the Baptist church, shot and almost instantly killed w. T. Bellinger, stenographer of this judicial district
 Trouble between the two began yesterday over the painting of fence between the premises of John B. Bellinger, father of the deceased and the Baptist parsonage.
 This morning Bellinger met Reverend Johnson, who was armed with a double barrelled shotgun, a few words passed, which led to firing by both parties. When assistance arrived Bellinger was dying.
 After the shooting Reverend Johnson walked into house and about o'clock sur rendered to Sheriff Hunter Who shot first is not known, but it is generally claimed that Reverend Johnson only shot once. Bel fingers pistol had four empty chambers

WHEELER MAY

 That He Again Repre-
 sent His District.
WILL DECIDE WITHIN FEW DAYS

Washington, May 4.-(Special) )-General Joseph Wheeler was asked by the Age Herald correspondent tonight:
 Are you a candidate for congress in the Eighth Alabama district?"
 T am preparing statement to send to the people of the district, which I expect to have ready in a day or two," replied General Wheeler.
 Docs that mean that you will be a can didate, general?"
 T did not intend to be candidate for congress again." answered the general, but I have received a number of letters from the district urging me to run, and I feel I should not make decision without correspondence with my friends there. The election is in August, so the few days de- lay in deciding cannot be harmful.
 The inference to be drawn from the gen. erals remarks is that he will be willing to represent the Eighth district again, pro- vided he does not have to enter a scramble, and have to antagonize old friends.
 Today Senator Vest reported Senator Morgans bill for public building at Flor ence, Ala, with substitute appropriating s20,O00 for that purpose.
 Senator Morgan said today that he thought the Nicaraguan canal bill would surely pass this session if republicans did not make party matter of opposition. Senator Morgan proposes to urge the con- sideration of the bill at every opportunity. Republican senators express the view that the bill will not pass because of the deter imitation to hasten the adjournment of congress. Back of this naturally is the presidents belief that it is wiser not to legislate for the canal until the Nica- raguan commission report is completed, and the Hay-Pauncefote treaty is disposed of one way or the other.

BISHOP JACKSON DIES AT ROSELAND The End Came Peacefully Early
 Yesterday WILL BE BURIED AT EUFAULA Death Was the Result of the Chronic Disorder With Which He Has Suffered for Past Several
 Years.

Montgomery May 4-(Special )-Bishop II. M. Jackson died at Roseland his home near Eufaula, this morning at 1;30 o'clock. His death is the result of chronic disorder, from which he has suffered for the past several years.
 For three weeks past his troubles had been more perceptible in it's work, but not until yesterday was his condition considered serious. He sank rapidly from noon yes terday, and his end came peacefully a little past midnight. There can be no doubt but that the recent troubles which he had gone through hastened the ravages of the dis case.
 Dr. Jackson was elected bishop coadjutor of the Episcopal church in Alabama in 1891 At the time of his election he resided in Richmond Soon after his arrival in Ala bama his wife died and he subsequently, married Miss Cochran of Eufaula, a niece of Mrs. W. C. Oates of this city.
 The funeral will occur from the home of the deceased's family at o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and the remains will be inferred at Eufaula.

$5O,OOO FIRE
Flames Do Great Damage to New York
 Factory

New York. May 5.-Fire early this Sat urdaD morning at the Standard Varnish works did $50,000 damage, and for time threatened to burn the whole works.
 The varnish. and the materials escaping from the great tanks as they blew up, flowed over the yard and out upon the waters of the Kill Won Kull and the blaze from the various oils illuminated the country for miles.
 There was first an explosion that shook buildings for a radius of mile. Within two hours eight big tanks had been blown up. Each of the tanks contained 5000 gall Ions of material. Fire tugs from the Stan- dard Oil works at Bayonne were ordered to the scene, but they could not approach the main blaze and they were compelled to confine their efforts to keep the burning oils from floating down the hills to points where ships and boats were tied up.
 The tugs managed to hold the fire in check upon the water, while the f1remen on shore fought them back from the build ings.

JEALOUS LOVER
Shoots at Sweetheart and Wounds Two
 Men,

El Paso, Tex, May 4.-At the home of B. Alderete, at Yslete, Tex, twelve miles from this city, jealous lover, while at- tempting to shoot his sweetheart, acci- dentally wounded two young men. News reached here tonight that Miss Logan, the young lady, died at o'clock from the ef fects of the shock which she sustained when Alverez attempted to murder her. The young lady, who was about 16 years of age, had been long keeping company with Pablo Alvarez of this city. Recently she became engaged to Abraham Alderete, brother of the district clerk of Fl Paso county. This enraged Alvarez, and last night he met the girl at dance. He took her aside to talk with her, and as she was leaving him to return to Alderete, who was seated on the opposite side of the room, Alverez drew a revolver and fired at her. The bullet missed the girl but passed through the leg of Angel Yrogel- Ions, and lodged In the leg of Abraham Alderete, severely wounding both.
