is He CRAZY7-
Edward Stevens, Charged With Ar
son, VIII Be Tried Before
Judge Nixon,

Edward Stevens, who played a prom
inent part in the trial of the Starr ar
son case several weeks ago and who Is
now In Jail charged with arson await
ing the action Of the next grand jury,
has acted and talked so queerly since
his arrest that some doubt has existed
as to his sanity. Accordingly an affi-
davit in lunacy was filed with Sheriff
McCallister, as is customary in such
cases and he in turn notified the Pro-
bate Judge, Prosecuting Attorney and
Clerk of Courts, as the law requires.
Judge Nixon will hold examining
court Thursday morning at 10 o'clock
for the purpose Of determining wheth-
er or not the man is insane. If he is
found Ito be so, trip to the Athens
asylum will be the result and his case
will not go before the grand jury.
However, II he Is found to be sane the
law will take its course.
Such cases are rare and 1t is a
strange fact that this Is the second of
the kind in Washington county during
the past few monlls. The other case
was that of Corbln Little, who, charg-
ed with murder, was tried before the
examining court, adjudged insane and
sent to the Athens asylum.

If you dance, there will be plenty OF
opportunity for you to exercise that
pleasure for the big pavilion is there
and to encourage your feet to keep a
proper rhythm, the Marietta orchestra

there will be plenty; and If you want
an evening Of rare enjoyment, go up.

TUESDAY. MAY 60, 1900.
A Floating Palace.

The steamer Francis j. Terrence
was the scene last evening of quite a
reception, the big boat having been
lighted in all its departments in order
that the public might look in on her
loveliness.
Many took advantage to go aboard
the craft and enjoyed promenading the
spacious decks of which there are
three. All were brilliantly illuminate
ed till the entire floating premises con-
stituted a gigantic glitter. The boat
has been watched with the closest at
tentlon by the citizens of Marietta
for she is of an unusual type, being de-
signed to fill the wants of pleasure
seekers. She certainly must fill that
want to the bulging point, for in every
feature there is that perfect attention
to detailswhich conduces to the utter
completeness of the craft.
Marlettans may take especial pride
in this beautiful boat, for she is al
most entirely a product of this city
Marietta artisans having laid her keel
and put the finishing touches on her
pilot house. The hull and upper
works were built By Knox g Son, and
her engines by The Pattln Bros. Com
pany.
On a trial trip yesterday the boat
conducted herself in most satisfact-
ory manner, pleasing her builders and
her owners as well
1t Is expected to take the Torrance

in the river shall permit her steaming
out Of this port. We noticed last night
that she was drawing about three feet
of water, so that her height consider

boat.
