AN OLD-TIME FIGHT
UNCLE SANS MIDDIES SETTLE
DIFFERENCES WITH BARE
FISTS.

New York, May 7-Midshipmen
wygant and Wallace of the battleship
Kearsarge, who had been at odds ever
since their ship left the southern drill
grounds for this port, have settled
their differences by a pugilistic en-
counter.
Shortly after the Kesrsarge dropped

clad in their civilians clothes called
a closed carriage and drove to seclud-
ed spot of Staten Island.
There were no seconds, tho battle
was fought in the darkness with bare
fists and it lis not known which was
victorious. On the return they both
exhibited faces badly bruised. They
appeared to have reached an amicable
settlement. As result of the battle
the "middles" are confined to their
rooms. According to their brother
officers they are on the sick list. but it
is asserted that "sick list" is . mild
term for compulsory confinement.

PHYSICIAN SUICIDES
PROMINENT YOUNG MAN OF
MEMPHIS FOUND DEAD.

Memphis, May 7-Dr. Stephen E.
Rice. aged 80, q scion Of well known
Memphis family, q ripe scholar, q
young physician of wide repute, . ia
vorite in society, and withai . gentle
man In the highest sense, is dead.
Alone in his room, a victim Of des-
pondency and despair, a pistol in his
hand, o bullet in his brain, the pailor
Of death on his face-the facts pointed
to but one conclusion, deliberate sui
eide.
The tragedy occurred yesterday af-
ternoon in the front room Of his moth
er's handsome residence at 36l Poplar
street. The negro servant, the only
other occupant of the house, was
thrown into . frenzy Of excitement
when she heard the report Of pistol
from the room where the physician
had for several hours been pacing the
floor.
Theories have been advanced to ac-
count for his suicide, but as far Is
anyone knows the true cause Of the
self-destruction is sealed in deathly
silence. DR.. Rice gave no reason to
anyone. With his demise the only
hope of sscartaining the true reason is
gone.

Outrageous State of Affairs at
Jackson, Ky.
Officers Of the Law Said to Remain
Idle While Murder Is
Committed.
OUTBREAK THREATENED DAILY

Louisville, KY. May Especial cor
respondents OF the Louisville newspa-
pers sent to jackson, Breathitt county,
to investigate the assassination of
James B. Msrcum, send back kilograms
telling of an appalling condition of aft
airs there, and saying the condition is
one that calls for heroic treatment.
The first step in that direction was
taken by Governor Beckhsm. who has
forced County Judge Hargis to apply
to him for reward, and has issued
the largest reward in his power, $500.
Governor Beokham realized it was
doubtful whether Judge Hargis would
act, wrote him yesterday suggesting
that IL the local authorities had no
clew that he apply to the governor for
reward Judge Hargis made the re-
quest, and the reward was offered
In spite of the action taken by Gov
ernor Beckham, the kilograms receiv-
ed from the correspondents sent to
jackson would indicate that unless
some stronger action is taken the Grim
inals will go unwhipped Of justice.
For years the county has been with
out coroner, and County Judge Har-
gis alleges that he has asked some of
the best people in the county to take
the office, but all have refused. There
has not been an inquest held in any of
the feud cases.
As told in the special dispatches, the
names Of the murderers are known to
nearly every one in jackson, but they
dare not breathe them for fear of add.
ing to the number of marked men,"
The assassination was at close range
and was witnessed by many, including
the sheriff, Edward Callahan, who
stood in Hargis' store and saw the as
sassin fire. But Callahan took no
steps to apprehend tho murderers. He
excuses himself on the ground that he
feared to 60 out, as he might himself
be shot. Search for the asssssins was
made by posse, consisting Of Captain
B. J. Ewin,s deputy sheriff and friend
of Marcum, who was at his side when
shot; e. II. Noble, Asbery- Spicer, 8.
s. Patrick and Mrs. Sarah Patrick,
sister of Msroum and her daughter
Florence. The posse searched the
courthouse and obtained access to all
the rooms save the courtroom, from
which Jim Cockrill was killed. the
Office of County Judge Hsrgis and the
Office Of Sheriff Ed Callahan. These
offices were locked and admission wai
not to be had.
Such is the state of affairs. OF
course, 1t may have been but coinci-
dence that these offices should have
been vacated and locked just at the
tine of the assassination, and it may
have been coincidence that Sheriff
Callahan showed cowardice and that
County Judge Hsrgis declared it was
useless to try to find the assassin,
though he claimed TO he willing to act
if any one would swear out a warrant.
The best people of the county are
afraid to express their views, yet all
would welcome the impeachment and
removal of the apparently negligent
officials. and have new deal all
around. There is growing evidence
that the Marcum assassination was the
result Of plot.

There is no such thing as a cheap studio

Il want to protest against that word studio"

we all agreed to call them workshops after
Tom ran across that tonsorial studio
They have debased the word" agreed one
of the men. 1T means nothing any more when
every Tom, Dick and Harry and no end of

There are a lot of this sort in New-York espe-
