N. G. Gonzales; editor of The
State, and a widely known news,
paper man of the South, was shot
by Lieutenant Governor James Fl.
Tillman in Columbia, South Caro-
lima, on the 10Th inst, and receiv,
ed wound from which he died on
Monday.
The shooting was the outgrowth
of feud,-the aftermath of the
Tillman McLaurin fist fight in the
U. S. Senate some months ago, the
Lieutenant Governor being neph-
ew of Senator Tillman. After the
disgraceful scene in the Senate the
President withdrew the Senator's
invitation to the banquet in honor
of Prince Henry of Prussia. Young
Tillman then withdrew an invita-
ton to the President to attend the
Charleston Fair. The editor of the
Columbia State condemned young
Tillman in unsparipg terms for his
impudence and boorishness, and
when the South Carolina campaign
was in progress continued the
assaults in Incorporate language.
Tillman was one of the candidates
for Governor, and Gonzales in his
paper, denounced him as a coward,
liar and everything that was base.

died of apoplexy, aged II years.
NJ. de Blowitz probably had a

Mr.. Ralph had been in failing

YOUNG ROYALTY IN GERMANY.
A Number Who Will Soon Come to
the Front in a Spectacular
Way.

The members of the royal family,
who have been hitherto in the infant
class, will now play leading role in
court society. There is, first of all,
She crown prince, lusty, fun-loving
young lad, who has just reached the
age of manhood, and for whom the
court intriguers are trying to make a
brilliant match. At present gossip
has it that Princess Alice, of Great
Britain, the daughter of the duchess
of Albany, is to be the favored one.
But the crown prince, like his father,
insists upon making his own choice,
regardless of political considerations.
But if predictions go for anything
he will doubtless marry member of
the British family, and Princess Alice
combines both royal English blood
and beauty. She is now living with
her mother in Potsdam, near the
royal palace, and is the favorite of
the kaiserin at little family gather
ings, country strolls and drives
around Sans Souci, says the Brook
Ign Eagle.
After the crown prince comes
Prince Adalbert, who is now living
in Kiel, and is to be the future lord
of Germany's' navy, just as Prince
Henry, as the next eldest of Kaiser
Wilhelm, became chief admiral
Prince Adelbert is being bred for the
sailor life, however, and will not be
seen much at court. The third men,
Der, however, is charming, hand
some lad called Eitel Fritz, who is to
enter at Bonn university with the
crown prince and has already become
a social lion. The remaining chill
dren are still to be kept to their
studies.
AS in all court centers, society is
divided into various sets, each of
which has it's own leaders by virtue
of office or lavish entertainment. The
most exclusive court set is that with
which the kaiser and kaiserin sur
| round themselves at the new palace
in Potsdam, in which are included
Prince and Princess Henry, the arch
prince and duchess of Schleswig-
Holsteip, brother of the empress;
Prince and the beautiful Princess
Leopold of Prussia and the different
, reigning leaders of the Prussian
houses affiliated with the royal fam
lily. This circle is the simon-pure
''Hohenzollern" society, in which only
family relation counts. Then come
the members of the royal cabinet and
their wives, with Chancellor and
Countess Won Buelow at the head.
Countess Won Buelow is an Italian
by birth and one of the most brilliant
of social entertainers at the old
chancellor palace in which Bismarck
lived when in Berlin. Adjoining this
estate are the ministerial residences
and gardens of Baron Won Hichthof=
en-, minister Of foreign affairs; Min
lister Won Rheinbabep, minister of
finance; Minister Posadowsky, minis
ter of culture study, and others.
All the ministers are supplied with
palatial residences by the govern
meRt, where they entertain accord
ing to their measure.
