J. L. Satterwhite
Shot Mr.. Wallis.
Shooting Occurred at Hope Mon
day Night.

News reached here yesterday
that J. l.. (Poney) SatterWhite
shot a man named Willis at Hope
Monday night. We could get
only a meager report OF the
shooting, but from what we could
gather, the young man was
paying some attention to Mr..
SatterWhite S daughter and that
Satterwhite had protested. The
young man had either accompan-
led the youg lady home or call
ed on her and the shooting
followed. His thigh was broken
and he is reported to be in criti-
cal condition.
Mr.. Saterwhite had only lived
in Hope about two months. He
moved there from this county,
where he had lived for many
years and was a highly respect
ed citizen.

BOUNDARY STONES CONDITION.
Final Meeting Of Season of Columbia
Historical Society,"

The final meeting for the season OF the
Columbia Historical Society was held last
evening in the banquet hall OF the Shore
ham Hotel There was a good attendance
of the members and the general public. and
much interest was manifest in the paper OF
the evening. which gave an account of the
present condition of the ancient boundary
stones of the District
The facts were the result of a pedestrian
tour by Mr.. Fred E. Woodward along the
boundary lines Of the District In this
way he visited each of the boundary stones.
which are placed at intervals of a mile
apart along the ten-mie square, or that
portion of 1t that remains since the part
beyond the Potomac was ceded back 10
Virginia.
The condition of these stones and their
location was not only noted, but the aid or
the camera was invoked and the gistures
were reproduced as lantern slides ana
shown on the screen last evening Tor me
benefit of the audience. In this way every
one was able to make what would other
wise have been fatiguing physical journey
with ease and comfort. and saw practically
everything that Mr. Woodward noted as
he walked along the dividing line between
the territory of the District and that of the
state of Maryland.
1t was evident from the photographs. and
also from the observations of Mr.. Wood
ward which served to interpret the pic
lures that the condition of many of the
stones shows neglect. and after Mr..
Woodward had concluded and the paper
was discussed. suggestions were made that
steps be taken by the government author
tiles TO prevent these important landmarks
from being injured by the care,essness or
the righteousness of the casual passer-oy'
a resolution calling the matter to the at
tention of the authorities was adopted.
Reference was made to the fact that dur
ing the present month occurred the ami
versary of the death Of Robert Morris. the
financier of the revolution. and this called
forth illusions to the important real estate
investments made by that eminent man IN
this city and how the property Eere shared

WHAT IS A FASCINATING MAN?

WHAT IS A FASCINATING MAN?
 "What is a fascinating man?' The question has been much discussed by playgoers since MT. Arthur Bourchier produced Mr.Sutros new play at the Garrick Theatre. Some have expected to find in "the fascinating MT. Vand- erveldt' merely ap hysically handsome man, fortgeeting perhaps that John Wilkes, one of the ugliest of men, al- though one of the most brilliant used to declare that he would be only half an hour behind the handsomest man in Europe in attracting a woman.
 The handsom man, indeed, very often thinks more of himself than of the wo- man, and wants her to make love to him. MT Sutro, we believe, never in tended the term fascinating" to be synonymous with the term beautiful" 7" By fascinating, Mr. Sutro rather in- tended @ man of parts, man who, when he is left alone with a woman knows how to captivate, and charm, and manage her. It is with such man, not with an Adonis, that Lady Clarice would have to be careful of her reputa- tion
 Between the acts of the play last night a representative of "The Pail Mall Gazette" put the question to MT Bourchier, What is facinating man?"
 What is a fascinating man?" he echoed. 'Well, I should say it depends on what is inside him. That is to say a fascinating man should have brains Let me illustrate my meaning by tell inv you a story that I know to be true. A very charming woman in London married a man who was a musician. Very soon after the marriage she left him. Her friends remonstraed with her, and her reply was: Believe me, have done nothing wrong but 1 simply could not go on living with him. l got drought with him in a wekk.' Beyond heinz a musician, he had nothing in him. What a woman wants is compan- ionship, not only personal attractive ness. How often we find a charming woman uniting herself with plain man. We hear people say: I wonder how she can find in him anything to attract her! But it is not the mans appearance that has succeeded, but some quality probably of mind, that is not seen on the surface"
 But there" MT. Bourchier added, "I have only suggested these things off, hand. I cannot quite say what fascin- ates a woman; but I know what fasci- mates the public"

 The pigeon must have flown from Chicago bearing the note and the in dications are that the heart-broken girl dispatch the bird to the South land in search of the boy that deserted her, She is a fair-haired maiden of about 17, with big expressive eyes that look to be blue. The character of the picture indicates that the girl belongs to good and respectable family of Chicago. The young man appears to be about 21 years old. The face is that of a student or an actor.
