Or else this noise like whirrinS wings,

And, though | strain with either ear,
The dark is silent all around;

A sort of sound comes like sigh
Perhaps the darkness rushing past,
Perhaps the minutes passing by;
Perhaps the thoughts in peoples heads,
That keep 50 quiet all the day,
Wait till they're sleeping in their beds,
Then rustic out and fly away!

IN AN ASYLUM.
WIFE OF FORMER JUDGE. THOMAS
J. MACKEY is FINALLY SENT TO


J. .NIACKEY is FINALLY SENT TO
AN ASYLUM AFTER MACKEY'S
Washington, June 6.-Mrs. Rather
inc S. Mackey, the wife of former
Judge Thomas J.. Mackey, of South
Carolina, was brought here yesterday
evening from Alexandria and sent. to
st. Elizabeth's Insane Asylum, to
which Institution she was committed
recently by Justice Cole. Mrs: Mackey
came here while under the belief that
she was being taken to Falls Church,
Va, an arrangement which was made
by her husband, after his arrest on
charges of cruel treatment of his wife.
The former South Carolina jurist
was arrested yesterday in Alexandria,
upon a warrant sworn out by George
Porterfeld, of Charleston, w. Va, a
brother of Mrs. Mackey, who charged
Judge Mackey with threats against
Mrs. Mackey and cruel treatment Of
her. The case came up before the
mayor yesterday afternoon, and Mrs.
Mackey accompanied her husband from
their, boarding house on Patrick street
to the police station, clinging to his
arm. When Mayor Simpson took his
seat upon the bench, Mrs. Mackey re-
quested a private conference with his
honor, and endeavored to secure the
release of her husband Mackey in
sisted upon having his legal rights,
and succeeded in getting a postpone
ment long enough to enable him to
secure Col. K. Kemper as his counsel.
After considerable controversy
Mackey proposed to take mis- wife to
Falls Church, but this her brother re-
fused to allow, and demanded that the
case be tried. A. compromise was
effected at last, by which Judge Mackey
on condition, it is alleged, that the
charge of cruelty against him be
dropped, consented to bring his wife to
Washington. Mrs. Mackey declared
her willingness to accompany her hus-
band, but believed that she was going
to Falls Church. She was greatly dis
tressed when she learned that she had
been brought here and would be sent
to St Elizabeth S. She was at first
taken to No. 1 police station, and
later was removed to the asylum.

AsHTON's STATEMENT.
Alleged Murderer's Account of the AZ
fray With His Victim.

A verdict is expected late today in the
case of George Ashton, colored, who has
been on trial since Thursday in Criminal
Court No. for the murder of Ida Jackson
the 9th Of last November.
The principal testimony offered by the de-
Tense was a statement from Ashton which
was substantially similar to that submitted
to the jury yesterday by his counsel, as re-
ported in The Star. 1t was in substance
that Ida Jackson, the day of the crime. had
applied harsh names to the defendant and
struck him with chair and clinched with
him. He admitted that he struck the
woman with his fist several times. in order
to make her release her hold on him. The
woman finally fell to the floor, and Ashton
also fell in such way that he rolled down
stairs. When he realized that the woman
was dead he proceeded to a police station
and delivered himself to the authorities.
The consideration of prayers for instruc-
lions occupied considerable time after the
close Of the evidence. After these were out
Of the way Assistant United States Attor-
ney Gould late this afternoon began sum-
ming up.
