MR.. GOODIES RETORT.

Mr.. John Goode, who is in Washing
ton, being asked if he had seen that Capt
Wise, in his speech on Friday, had made
an attack on him as the professor of NO.
gro elimination" replied as follows:
ooh, yes, | have seen it, and as John
Quincy Adams said ofStephen A. Doug
las in the House of Representatives on a
certain occasion, If it affords the gentle
man any pleasure to pour upon my head,
now whitened with the frosts of many
winters, the walls of his impotent wrath,
let him enjoy it, let him enjoy it. The
new constitution of Virginia makes no
discrimination whatever between voters
on account ofrace or color. The provisions
of the suffrage article apply alike to all.
As an advocate of these provisions, ]
claim to be better friend of the colored
man than Mr.. Wise has shown himself
to be. would lift the colored man to a
higher plane of intelligence, while Mr.
Wise, for the sake of paltry fee, would
involve him in race trouble too terrible
for contemplation. AS for myself, l de-
sire no better epitaph upon my tombstone
than this: Here lies the eliminator of
illiterate, vicious suffrage in Virginia.
Nothing coming from Mr.. Wise"
continued Mr.. Goode, could injure me
in the estimation of the people who
know us both. In this connection am
reminded of an incident in Mr.. Wise's
eccentric career Some years ago he
made political speech in Rockingham
county. After the speech the people adj
journed to the hotel for dinner. At the
table one old farmer said to another, sit
ting opposite to him, How did you like
the speech today? well, said the other,
'as to that little fellow, Johnny Wise, it
seems to me that when he gets up to talk
he always starts his mouth to running,
and then goes away and leaves it. ;"

The American doctors who conducted a
second autopsy last week on the body OF
Mrs. Ellen Gore, the american singer,
shot and killed in Paris week ago last
Wednesday, today submitted report
which agreed with that of the French
physicians in stating that death was ac-
cidental.
The Kaiser's former military tutor,
Capt. Sidney O'Danne, who for twenty
five years past has been confined in
various asylums of Germany, escaped
from his keepers today, while being
taken from Berlin to private hospital.
O'Dann was re-arresied at Hamburg,
this evening.
According to report the Kaiser has
inherited a fortune. Herr Wilhelm

presented the Kaiser with villa in
Tyrol, has left will bequeathing his
entire fortune valued at 1915, 900 in
securities and $3.50, 900 in cash, to the
Emperor.

Turkish troops at Planina near the Bull
garian frontier. The Macedonians lost

1t is stated in London diplomatic
circles today that Venezuela has yielded
in part to the demands of Germany and
England for claims put in by the
citizens of those countries. 1t is said
that the back down on the part of
Venezuela is complete enough to at least
delay the contemplated presentation of
a joint ultimatum by Great Britain and
Germany.

Fuller complimented the lawyers on
their able argument. and expressed re-
pret that he did not have time to write
out an opinion covering the many in
teresting points raised by counsel. He
made the significant remark, however,
that all these points had been passed up
on. and this was taken to mean that the
Supreme Court had already rendered de-
cisions which fully cover the case.
The decision was rendered late on
Saturday evening, and in less than an
hour the State board of canyassers had
issued the certificates of election to the
Congressman, including that to MIR.
Carter Glass, who will take his seat on
Monday for the first time as the sue
cessor of Maj. Peter j. Otey, OF the
Sixth district.
Capt. Wise says he will push the
case to the bitter end, and, besides tax
ing an appeal to the Supreme Court,
will at once institute in various sections
of the State the proposed S., 900 damage
suits against members of the constltu,
tional convention, the governor, and
other members OF the State board OF
canvassers. He will seek to prevent
Mr.. Glass taking the oath by asking
some republican member of the House
to move to refer his credentials to a
committee for investigation and not
allow him to be sworn in. Capt. Wise
left for Washington Saturday night.
He said: ''The republican party has
no backbone; neither the Presi-
dent nor any of the leaders care
a rap for the negro. Mr.. Roosevelt will
invite Booker Washington to dine with
him, but if a score of negroes are shot
down within sight of the White House,
he will not raise his hand to bring the
guilty ones to justice l am the only
friend the negro has left, and Twill keep
up the battle for his rights as long as
there is ray of hope. While we were
fighting to perpetuate slavery, the
negroes were defending our wives and
homes

A Tempestuous Voyage.

New York, Dec. AFTER five days
of fierce northwest gales which reduced
the ships speed so that she was over "a
hours late, the American liner St. Louis
pulled into New York harbor early this
morning, and her passengers got their
first view of really clear weather since
the ship left the English Channel, No
vember % Shortly after leaving South
ampton fierce gale sprang up, accom-
panied by violent squalls. Dangerous
seas swept the decks and the passengers
were kept below almost the entire voy-
age, while officers and crew were kept
on the the jump. The days runs with
the exception of one we're all under 400
knots. John Vain, Norwegian sailor,
was swept overheard by huge sea just
after the ship left the English Channel.
Yesterday off Nantucket, fire broke out
in passageway off the main deck, and
intense excitement prevailed on the ship.
The blaze was soon extinguished.

The LAST session of the 57th Congress
met today and will continue till the 4th
of March next. The people of this
country need expect no relief at its
hands from the burdens of taxation
which they have so long borne, for it
seems to be the intention of those now
managing the country's affairs to make
the appropriations equal the vast sums
received from taxation. Indeed, relief
seems far off, for Senator Hale, of Maine,
one of the most influential republicans
in the Senate says, "Neither this winter,
nor the next, nor the winter thereafter,
unless Congress loses its head, will any
revision of the tariff be made" and he
adds that what he says represents the
general sentiment of the republicans
throughout the country.
