MURDER OF MRS. RORsOHACH.

Many witnesses testified at the coro-
nel's inquest at Portsmouth, yesterday
evening, when DR.. Gray o. Holladsy,
city coroner, inquired into the tragic
death of Mrs. Mary Lawless Rorscbach,
who was slain by burglar Tuesday
morning last at her residence, in Park
avenue, Park View.
The most recent development in the
murder was the information procured
from Mrs. Caroline Davis, whose resi-
dence is directly in the rear OF the
Rorschach premises. She said that on
the morning of either September 2 or 3
she saw two men in the rear of the
Rorschach premises, between and 4
o'clock. Mrs. Davis describes the men
as negroes, one a tall mulatto, the other
a dark man. She states that the mulatto
was attempting to force an entrance into
the Rorschach house when the black man
Who watched for him, discovered her
looking from her window at them. Mrs.
Davis wished to fire at the men, but was
prevented by hes husband.
She saw the tall mulatto on other oc-
casions near the Rorschach residence,
and once she saw the same man attempt
to enter another house near it. The de-
scription given by Mrs. Davis Of the mu.
lstto tsllies exactly with that of Thos.
Archer, who is confined in the city Jail
suspected of the crime.
Trolley Conductor Wick testified that
the night Mrs. Rorschsch was murdered
he saw mulstto acting in suspicious
manner near the Rorschsch residence.
| Another development in the murder Is
letter written by Archer since his con-
finement in Jail to his mother and inter-
cepted, in which he told her how to tes'
tify at the coroner's inquest. He die.
| tated that she tell the jury that he retired
that night between and 10 o'clock, and
that while sitting about his home be sel

Embarrassing.

F'The sexton of a quaint old
Maryland church, said a clergy
man, Showed me through the cool,
dim building one warm afternoon
and as we were departing pointed
to the Bible on the lecturn and
smiled.
GA strange thing happened last
Sunday in connection with that BIZ
ble,' he said. we had a strange
minister preaching here, and when
he opened the book he came upon
a notice and read it out with all
due solemnity. 1t was a request for
the congregations sympathy and
prayers for John @. Griggs, who
had been deeply afflicted by the
loss of his WIFE
''The sexton paused and chuckled
softly.
You see, SIR he said, our
regular minister has been using
that paper as a bookmarker more
than a year, and John @. Griggs, in
a natty gray suit, sat in a front pew

A Castle In Ireland

The name of castle for a country
house is preserved in Ireland, rath-
er curiously, for Ireland has not the
vestiges of French customs so no
ticeable in Scotland. The dullest
little villa, so it be solitary in an
Irish country place, bears that
name, and tha@smile of the Saxon
when he arrives and sees the. castle
is cheap and unscholarly. Where
the Celt-the female Celt, that is
does earn and deserve that slight
sign of derision IS in her practice
with her visiting cards intended for
London use. The word castle there
for a second and country address
does seem to'suggest Manifestations,
if not sieges and sally ports.-Lon-
don Chronicle.

SOLVED IN sLuMBER.
A Problem That Was Worked Out and
Written During Sleep.

Many persons have written while
wrapped in slumber. Coleridge
writing the poem of s'Kubla Khan
in his sleep is a classic instance, but
there are numerous others. Here is
one, which DR.. Carpenter mentions
In his book on Mental Physiology.
A professor at Amsterdam had
been given by banking house of
that city question to solve, inyolv-
ing long and difficult calculation.
Several times he tried to obtain the
solution, but each time he made
some mistake. At last, all wearied
out, he gave the problem to some
of his students, telling them that
if possible he would like the answer
in three days. One of them, eager
to get into his teachers good graees,
took it home and worked on it for
three successive nights in vain.
"At last I bent myself over my
figures for third evening. 1t was
winter, and I calculated till half
past 1 IN the morning, all to no pur-
pose. The product was erroneous.
Low at heart, 1 threw down my pen
ell, which already by that time had
beciphered three states. l hesitat-
ed whether would toll through the
night, as l knew that the professor
wanted an answer the very same
morning. But, lol my candle was
already burning in the socket, and
the persons with whom l lived had
gone to rest. Then I also went to
bed, my head filed with ciphers,
and, tired in mind, l fell asleep. In
the morning I awoke just early
enough to dress and prepare myself
to go to the lecture, vexed at
heart at not having been able to
solve the question and at having to
disappoint my teacher.
''But, oh, wonder As I approach
my writing table l find on it paper
with figures in my own hand and
think of my astonishmentD the
whole problem on it solved quite
Alright and without single blunder.
[ wanted to ask my hostess whether
any one had been in my room, but
was stopped by my own handwrit-
ing. Thus I must have calculated
The problem in my sleep and in the
lark to boot. And, what was most
remarkable, the computation was SO
'uccinct that what I saw before me
IN single folio sheet had required
,hree slatefuls, closely beciphered

BROWNSVILLE PAYS THE
DEBT.

Texas has been borrowing irlSi
potatoes from Colorado for Ions
time. Colorado has been gener
Gus in the matter and has nevei
locked up the potato bin and re
fused further Accommodations, evl
IDENTIFY believing as big a State a:
Texas would not fall to pay bach
some day.
1t is a pleasure to note the fac
that Texas has started i'll to make
good, Brownsville being one OF the
points to lead in the reciprocity
movement.
Brownsville recently shipped a
car of spring potatoes to Denver,
not only as good stuff as Colorado
sent here, but said to be better IN
quality.
In fact, Denver commission
merchants paid about double TIE
price for the car of Brownsville
potatoes that Brownsville mer-
chants recently paid for a car of
Denver potatoes of last year S
crop.
So Texas is going to finally di-
charge its potato debt to Colorado,
and Brownsville has the honor OF
making one of the first remittarces
on account.-Fort Worth Star.
Texas will not only pay back
the Colorado potatoes. This State
is going to pay back the sugar
that was borrowed from Louisiana,
the corn that has been loaned by
Kansas, the hog meat that came
from the Jingle, and the -four that
Dakota furnished. Development
of waste places and Investigation
by intelligent farming methods
have united in making Texas an
empire that needs no foreign com
u1erce save as a means of disposing
of her surplus.
That is the reason for Texas
prosperity and shows why the eyes
of the world are focused on this
State by the Rio Grande. There are
hundreds of thousands of acres of
land in the pastures of Southwest
Texas today, devoted to cattle
grazing, which will be worth 500
an acre in ten years for the truck
and farm crops that will abe pro-
duced thereon; and the harvest.
time on these farms will be at a
season so much earlier than any
other section of the country can
harvest things of like character as
to make the crops of the highest
possible value.
Texas will pay back all she has
borrowed-uot only of products of
the soil, but in cash. The fact
khat an inconsiderate lawrnaking
body is making it hard for business
men to remain in the State and
prosper will not prevent the soil
from making good for the entire
State. Texas has a proposition so
excellent that there
is no end to the possibilities of her
growth and development. There
will be more prosperity in Texas
during the coming ten years; and
the end of that period will show a
greater change for the better than
can be readily imagined from the
progress that has been made in the
past. For Texas has theresources
that make this possible San An

Huelya, Spain, and thence to Pensa-
cola, as a member of the crew of
the British steamer Eastlands, which

iron pyrites.
The young man did not make the

Tomorrow nigh will close the most

will receive diplomas, and Mr.. Louis
Hannah, Miss Cora Louise Simpson
and Mr.. Fred Stewart will receive
certificates as special students.
With one exception, %his is the
largest graduating class of the
school.
The principal and patrons of The
Classical School are justly proud of
the institution
Among these are Mr. c. Franklyn
Zeek, recently graduated from Tulane
University as a first honor man and
Latin medalist; Mr.. Heron D'Alem-
berte, who has been AZ honor student
since his entrance in the University
of North Carolina; Mr.. L. y. Salt
marsh, one of our promising young
business men; Mr.. Penn Harvey, who
is completing his junior year at
Princeton University with honors. In
fact the school has yet to see fail
ure among its graduates.
1t has now gained a most enYiable
reputation as preparatory school,
and is rated by educators who have
been in a position to judge its work,
as one of the best fitting schools in
the South.
The work of such an institution as
this deserves much at the hands of
a community. Educationally, its in
fiUence has been marked, and will be
more pronounced from year to year
Financially, it is a factor of no mean
importance. 1t is safe 10 estimate
tLat during the seven years since its
foundation it has saved the city nearly
hundred thousand dollars
The years work will be closed by
an address to the graduating class by
the Hon. Thomas II. Clark, of Mont
gomery, an able and versatile writer
and polished speaker Those who
know Mr.. Clark by reputation are con-
graduating the class of '07 and the
school that they will be favored by an
address from him.
The principal of the Classical
School wishes it understood that all
interested in the cause of education
are cordially invited to the exercises,
which begin at $50 p. m, in the audi
torium of the school on North Pala-
fox street.

FULTON'S EVIL CAREER
is RATHER DIVERSIFIED

turn to Pensacola, Fulton promising
TO behave better.
Buncoed Paint Firm.
Before coming to this city, Mrs.
Fulton alleges, Fulton secured from a
wholesale paint firm of st. Louis S25
and a mileage book under the agree
ment to travel for the firm and sell
paint. but instead of doing so he used
the mileage book to bring himself
and wife to Pensacola, and appropri-
ated the S25, never making any at
tempt to represent the firm or sell
any paint.
In Business Here.
After reaching here, she states, he
engaged in the painting business with
a gentleman named Taylor, but after
two houses had been painted the part
nership was dissolved, Mr.. Taylor
accusing Fulton of defrauding him.
He next entered into partnership
with E. r. Cobb, she states, and after
a short time this partnership was
dissolved, Mr.. Cobb finding himself
out in the sum of $3.50.
Habits Grew Worse.
The complainant states that the
habits of her husband continued to
grow worse, and finally became un-
bearable, so she decided to return to
her relatives in st. Louis. When she
was at the depot to board the train.
Fulton, she said, threatened to kill
her if she left the city, and was ar
rested by a police officer
She is now in st. Louis, with rela-
tives, and as Fulton is serving a term
and cannot and will not support her,
she asks for a severance of the ties.

down by three games yesterday, Gulf
