THE SAND-DE MISSET LETTERS.
 The story, as we piece 1t together from the letters, is amazing. From be- ginning to end, 1t is the woman who
 plays the part of the man. It is not for nothing that the enamored Alfred addresses his idol as mon George His George, in fact, not only plotted, but |carried out the elopement, and in so doing proved an unexpected courage and determination. The first act in the
 drama has an air of strangeness which. belongs only to the truth. One evening,
 in December, 1883, . cab drew up out
 side 8 certain house in the Rue de Gre- |nelle, house which none who know
 the story can pass without reeonstitut- ing the scene in his minds eye. Within the cab was prim little lady iii a prin little bonnet, who had come to ask of
 Mme de Musset permission to carry her son to Italy. The permission was granted, with a result which might have been foreseen. Between two ego- ists, as fierce as George Sand and AL fred de Musset, agreement was in1pos- |sib1e. Neither would surrender a jot of independence or caprice to thesoth and after an interval ofacrises and hys- teria de Musset returned to Paris and champagne, while George Sand sought what consolation might be found in the lserious attentions of Dr. Pagello.-s George Wibley in Blackwood's Maga- zine. r

SECRETARY TAFT'S .FTELrLo!,'
 It was while Mckinley and Taft were discussing the terms of the instructions of April [, 1900, to the Philippine com mission that went to Cincinati and for the first time met MT. Taft I was very young, and except for limited news paper experience had never had to Seek out so important a person as a United State judge seemed to. me to be- | asked the hotel clerk if he knew where Taft lived and where he worked and at what hour the next morning for it was then at night had best go to find him. He told me briefly that one only might, but was certain to find him at that very hoir in his room In the United States court building. If he isn't there. 1t will be the first time, lie Esaid. And how will I get Sin to see him ?" asked. Knock on the door and walk in, he answered: and 1t was as he said. A great groWr-up boy came bounding out into the anteroonl and read my card. Hello, ' he cried, and bearned as If I were The One Person. Hello" he repeated, as if he enjoyed it; acorne along in. \ If MT. Taft should become President the f1yphen iri that greeting will become as famous as the one inserted into the delighted of his predecessor. The ''de-lighted' is sent spasnlod ideally from betwen cIeached teeth. It is sibilant, an escape of the steam of energy from the inside The

l. TRIPLE MURDER.
T hree People Killed and the Building Burned Over
 Them.
MT. w. M. Stephenson, Mrs. Stephenson and Mrs. Will lie Barrett, the Vic
 tins.

One of the most diabolical and hellish crimes ever committed in this county was perpetrated by some unknown party or parties, at the home of w NJ. Stephenson, IA miles East of this city, on last Friday evening. About s o'clock, p. m., the Stephenson home was discovered, by neighbors, to be on fire, who rushed to the scene, but were unable to subdue the flames. After the building was burned to the ground, the charred remains of Mir. Stephenson, his wife and Mrs. Barrett, a neighbor lady who was spending the night with them, were discovered in the fire.
 These three were the only peo- pie on the place, and as they were all dead, the whole affair was sbrowded in mystery. Sheriff Wilson was notified, and went inn mediately to the scene. A cor oners inquest was held over the re- mains, and, under the evidence, the jury decided that the people were murdered by parties un- known. A little daughter of MT. Stephenson, who was at party at Selma, at the time the deed was committed, says that she had q purse, with four silver dollars in it. in the house, and also, watch. The rim of the purse was found in the ashes and showed that 1t was open. No trace of the money or watch was found. A bush-aNe was, also, found in the ashes oi the burnt house, whieh the little girl says was kept in an out-house Mr. Stephenson's head was severed from the body, and Mrs. Bessett had on q heavy woolss jacket. that had failed to h:sfn entirely off
 which showed shat they had not retired fes~the night at the time oi the burning.
 T MT. Stephenson was very pros. sperous farmer and, as it was gen. erally believed that he had money
 Ne impression prevails that the aNpl crime was committed for tbt pursese of robbery. Every etfor is beNg made to ferrit Q the per.
 petratM, and if yaught d just

A great many plans have been suggested for advancing cotton; but the most eXtravagant that we have heard of IS that which comes from Courtland, Alabama, and is to burn 100000 bales. This plan would certainly re- duce the supply, but better plan we think, would be to lay aside the 100000 for next years sale, and plap some thing in the place of cotton. I 25 per cent reduction in acreage would help out some and the ex- pertinent should be tried.
