that DR.. Temple paid Mrs. Rlddlck
a professional visit on Wednesday
prior to the shooting. He informed
the family that Mrs. Riddick 5 con-
dItion was not of as serious nature
as was at first supposed. Dr.
Temple soon left. 1t is said that on
Saturday, while Mr.. Rddck was
discharging his usual pastoral
duties Dir. Temple made second
visit to Mrs. Riddlck, during which
he made Il careful examination OF
her condition. On Mr.. Rlddlck S
return his wife gave him an ac-
count of the private examination
made by Dr. Temple Mr. k'ddlcE'
who is quite deal. unfortunately
understood her to say that DE-.
Temple had made use Of language
III her presence unbccoming a gen
tlcman. lie remarked to his wife
that he would settle that matter in
the morning, and requested an early
breakfast. Breakfast being over,
Mr.. Riddick proceeded at ance to
DR.. Temples residence. Dir. Tenn
pie was not fully dressed when MIR.
Itiddick knocked at the door. His
call was answered by DR.. Temple,
and the shooting followed. DR..
Temple rctrcated through the house
to the back yard, followed by Mr..
Riddick, who cmpticd the contents
of the remaining four barrels into
DR.. Temples body. Two Of the

ed and signed, and made dying

TRUCE IN
KENTUCKY.

Frankfort, Ky, March l3.-The
Legislature Of Kentucky adjourned
sine die today.
A conference between Adjutants-
General Collier and Castleman re-
suited in a perfect understanding
being reached.
William S. Taylor, the Republic
can claimant, will continue to act as
Governor. J. c. w. Beckham. the
Democratic claimant. will make no
move toward securing possession OF
the State buildings until after the
Court of Appeals has decided the
disputed Governorship. The Le9is-
lature appropriated 800. 900 for the
use of Beckham in recognizing the
State militia.
Among the more conservative ele-
ment in each party the opinion pre-
walls that the worst is over and
that when the Court OF Appeals rem
ders its decision the danger OF civil
war in the State will entirely pass
away. 10 the Democratic leaders
with Il full understanding of the
situation only one cloud appears
ON the political horizon, which IS
Taylor's future course.
Tavlor himself will not outline
his plan of action beyond the state
ment that he will continue to act
as Governor. Republicans in
Taylor S confidence say that he will
remain at Frankfort in the dis
charge of his duties until the court
OF last resort passes upon the ques-
ton at issue. Then, If the decision
be against him. he will step out at
once and turn the State buildings
to Bcckham. The Republicans will
make every effort to carry the dis
pate into the FeleralCourts in case
the decision Of the Court Of Appeals,
the Supreme of kentuckv, is against
them; but failing in this, they will
considerthe question settled. though
still believing 4 great wrong has
been done them.
The Democratic leaders say that
they will cheertuly abide by the
decision Of the Court of Appeals.
But should the decision be in their
favor they will insist on the occu-
pancy oitllc State buildings peace
ably. if possible. but iorciDly if
necessary. Until that decision is
rendered no further action will be
taken.
lsv the agreement the K~publi-
cans understand that noturthcr ar
rests will be attempted and no
prosecutions made oi the STATE Off
GERS or Of the State militia serving
under Taylor.
