Swayne Impeachment Matter
 Will Have to Go Over
MINORITY FILES A REPORT
Vote Is Close in the Judiciary Com mittee-First Parker Presidential Button Makes Appearance
 in the House.

Washington, April 1.-(Special.) )-There seems no doubt here that the senate will decline to consider the impeachment case against Judge Swayne of Florida at this session and that the matter will go over until next winter.
 The filing today of the minority report from the house committee on judiciary in the proposed impeachment proceedings aginst Judge Swayne of the United States court of Florida awakened new interest in the case Representative Gillette of Cal ifornia prepared the views of the minor ity. He argues that the evidence In the case is not sufficient to warrant impeach- ment proceedings.
 When the Swayne case was up for dis position before the judiciary committee the vote in favor of impeachment stood to 5. The committee membership is seventeen. MT. Gillette after the filing of the majority report stated that he believed that when the minority report had been prepared he would secure the signatures of eight other members and that consequently the minority report would become in actuality the report of the majority. MT. Gillette's report is signed by four members. This makes but six members in final record as op- posed to the impeachment proceedings against eight in favor Chairman Jenk- ins of the committee on judiciary has signed neither report. although he is said to have voted against impeachment in the committee.
 Those who voted in favor of impeach- ment proceedings were Messrs Palmer of Pennsylvania, and Powers of Massachus- etts, republicans; DeArmond of Missouri, Smith of Kentucky, Clayton of Alabama. Henry of Texas, Little of Arkansas and Brarfley of Georgia, democrats

DARLING
HAD CHERRIES

"The Nature Mans" innocent trust
in humanity and his equally innocent
willingness to be fed by humanity
without expense to himself, were i'm
posed upon several days ago. AS a
result of the imposition there are those
who say that the nature man ought to
have acquired considerable of a Jag
not a roaring Bun like that described
by experts as being "ossifed' but a
mild sizzle such as should have made
nature seem a little farther off.
Natures Darling visited a number of
local saloons in the course of his in
vestigations of Honolulu and how the
civilized part of the human race lives.
In accordance with custom, he was not
averse to accepting trilies. whether in
the shape of "Niklz" or dimz or good
things to eat. In one place he was
supplied with some fruit. They were
beautiful round red cherris offered to
him by a tempter who thought the
nature man would simply sample them
and pronounce upon them. Instead
the nature man declared the first one
very good the second better and then
proceeded to polish off" all the con-
tents of the battle He returned the
bottle remarking that the cherries were
| excellent.
The cherries had been cooked and
STEPPED in preparation of which al
cohol is not a small ingredient They
were intended for cocktails and if the
nature man hadn't happened along and
taken a fancy to them, they would have
entered into cocktails enough to make
a dozen nature men borieyed.
Darling hasn't given his "impreshunz'
after taking the cherries. There are
those who say that Darling ought to
have had an edge after the cherries did
their business, but the nature man isn't
saying anything about it. The per-
petrator of the joke confidently expects
him to call for more cherries.

YOUNG GOULD SHOOTS.
Fires a Revolver Over Crowd of
Pursuing Fellow Students.

New York, Dec. 21.-While being
pursued in upper Broadway by a
crowd of Columbia university sopho-
mores, who were bent on capturing
him, Kingdom Gould, the son of
George ]. Gould, drew revolver and
fired over the heads of the crowd. He
then fed to fraternity house, which
was soon surrounded by the sopho-
mores, and from which he was rescued
by his father, who took him away in
a carriage under the guard of three
men, supposed to be detectives.
On a previous occasion young Gould,
who is a freshman in the Columbi
school of mines, escaped from the
second year men by drawing a geol-
ogist's hammer, which he dourished in
the manner of a pistol.
Young Gould was on his way from
the college grounds when a group of
sophomores appeared and attempted
to capture him for the sophomore din
ner to be held tomorrow night at
which it was planned he should fur
nish entertainment for his captors,
much after the fashion of other pris-
onerS of war. As soon as the sophie
mores began to close in about him
Gould took to his heels. He had not
run more than a block. when, seeing
that his pursuerS were gaining on him
and that he could not escape, Gould
turned suddenly and drew u revolver.
nearer or try to touch me- he
shouted.
The elder classmen still pressed for
ward.
He won't shoot one of them cried.
Gould then raised the revolver and
shot over their heads.
you'll find out whether I'll shoot
or not" he cried.
The sophomores at once fell back
and Gould took refuge in the fra
ternity house. The students gathered
achievements, surrounded the house
and kept him a prisoner there until 6
o'clock. At that hour George J. Gould
came to his sons rescue. He drove to
the fraternity house in a carriage, ac-
companied by three men, two of whom
guarded the carriage while the third
went with him to the door. Young
Gould Joined them there and walked
between them to the carriage and,
after watching until it Disappeared
the sophomoreS dispersed.
While Kingdom Gould was being
kept prisoner at the fraternity house,
a party of twelve sophomores was sent
to watch the Gould residence in Fifth
avenue to make sure that he should
not escape them Intending to cap
ture young Gould if he appeared, the
twelve second year men waited before
the house until the carriage contain
ing the Gould party arrived, after
which they returned to the university.
