tuesday.
TROUBLE OCCURRED INA SALOON.

Tuesday afternoon Tom Ordway
shot and instantly killed A. ID.
Moseley at Fredonia. The tragedy
occurred in a saloon about three
O'Clock in the afternoon. Mosely
was shot five times. Ordway gave
himself up and his examining tri-
al will be held at Princeton today.
Mosely was buried at Fredonia to-
day.
About eighteen months ago
Mosely shot and killed Ordway s
father at Fredonia. He claimed
that he killed Ordway in self.de-
fense and was acquitted.
1t Is reported that Mosely had
threatened to kill young Ordway
Saturday but was avoided by the
young man. Tuesday afternoon
they met in a saloon, and Mosely
attacked Ordway with a knife. The
young man drew a revolver and
emptied the contents in Mosely s
body 1t is said that the trouble
occurred in a room in the rear of
the bar and that there were no
witnesses. Mosely was about forty
five years of age while Ordway
is about twenty,seven years old.
The tragedy created great excite
ment.

WHEN THEY ARE CONVERTED.

The Cumberland Presbyterian
church was crowded Sunday night
At the close of an impressive SER
mon Rev Wyatt requested all the
christians present who we're con-
verted before they were twenty
years old to rise to their feet. In
response $50 people rose; after
they we're seated he requested all
who were converted when they
were between 20 and 40 years of
age to stand up; twenty-five arose,
and then he placed the years at 40
and beyond and one man arose. 1t
is needless to say that this occular
demonstration of his contention
that it is wise to seek Christ in
early life impressed itself on the
big audience.

A nice little rain both Wednesday
and Thursday nights laid the dust
nicely and cooled the atmosphere, SO
as to make it pleasant for the next
days celebration.
The speeches were all listened to
with the closest attention. Those of
Messrs Botkin and Curtis touched a
little upon politics, but not enough to
seriously injure anyone's feelings ex-
cept the SqueamiSh little editor of the
Dispatch. He was more displeaSed
with Curtis even than he was with
Botkin because both these speakers
are strongly opposed to bosSism.
Rev. Woodward can make very
handsome Woodman speech even if he
is not member.

All this may be dry as dust to the
average feminine reader, but IL never
theless of great importance to our
country's prosperity. The lightest
minded visitor may find pIenthy of
amusement in a ranlble through and
around the agricultural Department
at Washington. In its vast green
houses on the mall are many wonder-
full and rare specimens of plant life,
worth going far to see. Among these
none Is more remarkable than the
famous kissing Palm or, as scien-
tifically designated, the Palmetto os-
culari. 1t derives it's name and SCI
entific value from the remarkable in
fiuence 1t has over all persons who
come within given radius of it. This
influence, powerful as the strongest
magnet, insinuating as a perfume and
subtle as the very ether, is exerted
upon young and old. grave and gay
alike, and finds expression in an ire
sistlble impulse to indulge in kissing:
and only by feeling the presence of the
plant can the influence be thrown off.
This is no myth, but actual, embar-
raised reality. Staid, middle age per-
sons, prosaic married couples and aged
people are just as likely to find them
selves suddenly and ecstatically kissing
their companions of the opposite sex
as lovers in their teens" There is no
accounting for the phenomenon, but it
is true as preaching" Many of these
persons, entirely unaware Of the tnfiu-
elce averted upon them. have mar
veled at their unaccustomed actions
when at a safe distance from the mys-
FERROUS plant, and some of them have
been known TO return, again and again
of course purely in the interests Of
scientific reaearch. Young couples,
who because of diffidence have found
it impossible to break away from the
formal Mr." and Miss" generally
address each other as George and Mary.
Jennie and John after brief tarrying
in the vicinity of the Palmetto oscular.
How many engagements and marriages
this enchanted shrub has made, not
even the wise statistician of the De-
partment of Agriculture can say The
palm itself Is so extremely rare that
its species is almost extinct It is a
native of the South Sea Islands. and
with the greatest difficulty can be kept
alive in our uncongenial atmosphere.
That ancient historian, antiquary, poet,
philosophy and theologian, Giraldus
Cambrensis, has written a lengthy
treatise on the plant and traced the
origin of kissing to 1t. Probably a
healthy specimen of it grew in the Gar
den of Eden, and our first parents
happened to stray under its branches in
the early days of their acquaintance
before the serpent got in his work.

dams" said Capt. Dixon of the Royal
Engineers, who commanded the Indian
allies of the British. cit is a great
pity that so fine a young man as you,
and your commander is represented
to be, should fall into the hands of the
savages. Sir, for Gods sake, surrend-
er, and prevent the dreadful massacre
that will be caused by your resist
ance."
Lieutenant Shepp coolly replied:
when the fort shall be taken, there
will be none to massacre"
AS Lieutenant Shepp turned back to
the fort an Indian attempted to snatch
his sword. Capt. Dixon at once In
terfered. Maj. Croghan, who was
standing on the ramparts, saw the oc-
currence and it heated his blood.
Prof. James D. Butler of Madison,
Wis.,. had it from his grandfather,
Israel Harris who was with Ethan
Allen, that what that doughty fighter
did say was not lin the name of the
great Jehovah and the Continental
Congress when summoning the British
commander to surrender as his story
has it, but Come out here you id
old rat" Both history and tradition
agree in Croghan's case that his Ian
guage, when he saw the indignity Of
fered to his lieutenant, was couched in
lIlC pldlllB LpulSlNS ISIIllS VI
speech, and not in the dignified elo-
quence preferred by history. He shout
ed: "Shepp, come in, and we will blow
them all to hell" And he soon showed
that he meant it.
The attack began at once, the Brit
ish opening fire from their gunboats
and from a five and half-inch how
itzer, which they had landed. In or
der to create the impression that the
garrison had several heavy guns, the
solitary cannon was shifted from one
blockhouse to another and fired at in
tervals. When it became dark the gar
rison ceased replying to the British
cannonade and Maj. Croghan ordered
his six-pounder to be trained so that
it would rake the ditch in the direc-
ton of the northwest angle, the most
assailable part of the stockade The
gun was masked and loaded with a
double charge of slugs and grape shot.
