CHANCE FOR DEMOCRATS.
To Win Next Time If They VIII Get

The Richmond Times-Dispatch
says there is ground for suspicion
that the alleged conspiracy against

that the President is making gooo

The president will call the ron,

set down as members Of the conspir,

The big stick will be welded Wlta

FELLED BY MANIAC.
Paroled lunatic Attacks An Old
Lady and a Man.
The Old Lady Struck In the Head
And the Man Assaulted With an
Axe and Knife.

| axe ana HnlTe.
While in a At Of violent insanity
and thinking, as he said, that some
one was trying to kill him, Joseph W
Hagood Saturday made a murderout
attack upon Mrs. Eugenia Smith
with an axe, fracturing her skull
and with a long knife stabbed Mr.
John J. Riley in the back II Colum
bia. Mrs. Smith and Mr.. Riley are
now under care at the Columbia hos
pItal and some doubts are entertain
ed as to their recovery.
The State says Hagood has been OF
parole from the insane asylum foI
just 80 days and up to his tragic
deed Saturday has been conducting
himself commendable since his re-
lief. But Saturday morning he was
seized with terrible nalady and get
ting an axe be went to the house oc-
cupied by Mrs. Smith, hr. Riley and
others, and battered down the door
Of the room IN which the helpless
was. With a blow he felled Mrs.
Smith across the bed, inficttng SER
ious fracture Of the skull, and then
he went to the room where Mr.. Riley
was in bed.
Nj Riley, a one-legged man, hear
ing the noise IN the back part Of the
house got out Of the bed and started
to leave the house when he was seen
by Hagood. The maniac gave chase
to Mr.. Riley and soon overlook and
oTerpowered MIN, dealing him blow
on the hip with the axe and then
stabbing him IN the back with knife
near the backbone.
About this time a general alarm
had been given by Mrs. A. Andrews
who was In the house at the time,
and Mr.. J. II. Faux and others over
powered the maniac and after sum-
moning the police patrol placed him
in the wagon, where he was carried
to the station and locked up.
Dr. C. F. Williams, the city physi-
clan, who Is attending the injured
people, said he can not say just yet
what will be the outcome Of their IN
juries. Mrs. Smiths fracture is OF
very serious nature and may prove
fatal. Mr.. Riley will probably get
well, unless the knife penetrated into
the lung. which the doctor fears.
Both parties we're resting we'll late
Saturday night. Saturday afternoon
tbs unfortunate man was remanded
to the State hospital for the insane
again.
He was carried to the hospital IN
the patrol wagon and was very order
ly and quiet, the only thing that
seemed to worry him was that he
feared some one would at any time
do him harm, it seems. Hagood Is
huskster by trade and is married.
His wife saw a part Of the sad affair
and tried to control her husband, but
could not. She seemed not to be
afraid Of him, as she had seen him
undergo spells at other times.

Only Five of the Thaw Jury Fa-
yored Acquittal.
WILL BE TRIED OVER
The Celebrated Case Ends in Mis-
trial, the Jury is Discharged and
Thaw is demanded to the Tombs
Without Bail, Where He VIII Stay
Until the Second Trial Which Win
Be Next Fall

The jury in the Thaw case, which
has been up in the New York Court
for over ten weeks, has failed to
agree, standing five for acquittal and
seven for conviction. After forty
seven hours of deliberation the jury
announced that they were hopelessly
divided I'd could not possibly agree
upon verdict.
The twelve men were promptly
discharged by Justice Fitzgerald,
who declared that he, too, believed
their task was hopeless. Thaw was
remanded to the Tombs without bail
to await second trial on the charge
of having murdered Stanford White,
the noted architect.
The scenes attending the announce
ment by the jury Of its inability to
agree upon a verdict were robbed Of
any theatricalism by the general be-
lief that after their long deliberation
and reports Of wide division Of SEN
t1nent the Jurors could make no 9TH
or report than one Of disagreement.
Thaw, surrounded by the members
OF his family-the devoted, aged
mother, pale young wife, the titled
sister, the Countess Of Yarmouth
Mrs. George Carnegie and Edward
and Joshiah ThaW, the brothers re-
ceived the news in silence. But 1t
was plain that the verdict was dis
appointment.
When 1t became known that the
jug was about to make its report
and that the case would be disposed
Of Thaw called his wife to seat by
his side, and sat with his right arm
thrown about her until he was COM
manded to stand and face the jurors,
who mad just come in from the jury
room.
Smiling and confident as he enter
ed the court room Thaw sank imply
into his chair when ForemanDeming
B. Smith, in response to question
by Clerk Penny as to whether a YER
dict had been agreed upon said: 1--WE
have not" This ended the long trial
which will all have to ue gone over
again next Fall
Thaw's counsel Will apply for bail
for their client, but It Is doubtful If
he gets it, as the District Attorney
says he will oppose granting him
bail. The standing of the jury, seven
to Eve against the prisoner, will have
its influence in determining the mat
ter. Should he fail to get bail Thaw
will nave to spend the long summer
in the city prison.

A FATAL FIGHT.
onsrnel Over Trivial Matter Ends In
Terrible Tragedy.

The killing Of Charles E. Newoury
ard the fatal shooting Of John NC
Kinlay and D. n. Curry at the Citice
furnace Stag pile near Chattanooga,
Tenn, Thurdsay, afternoon created
profound excitement and regret IN
the neighborhood Of the scene and
among friends of the parties.
One of the most pathetic incidents
in connection with the shooting Is the
fact that J. A. Curry, father of D. ~;
Curry, took his bleeding son ana
placing him in the wagon which ne
was using to haul Stag and hauled
him to the hospital. =.
The whole trouble seems to nave
been the result of quarrel between
Young Curry and negro employe OF
Newbury over trivial matter. me
father of young Curry was beaten IN
the face but was not seriously hurt.
He was elinched with Ach1nlay al
the time Of the shooting.

| day. The negro, Joe Evans, appear
ed composed and resigned. He show
ed no sign whatever Of either fear o

All the morning two colored minis
teTs had been with him, praying an
singing. These two preachers, tn
Revs. J. C. Goode and John w. Swinl
remained with him until the last.
Evans did not eat any breakfast
although he ate hearty suppe

Shortly before II o'clock Sheriff

leave the jail and said to him: "Jot
Evans, this Is your last scene. It !:

The sheriff then read the sentence
When he had finished Evans said:
Yes, cir"
Evans was calm and seemed per
fectly resigned. He then made this
roaro with
the Lord, am glad that He allowed
me time to make peace with Him.
The march to the scaffold was then
made. Standing on the platform
Evans asked the sheriff If he could
sing, andupon permission being CIV
en- he sang with steady voice a song,
one Of the songs used By negroes IN
revivals when feeling is tense. There
seemed no special beginning or end
Of 1t. When he stopped the Rev.
John w. Swink, colored, offered a
prayer for the condemned man.
Evans himself prayed in low tone
all the time the Rev. Swink was pray
Ing for him.
At the conclusion Evans offered
the following prayer Of his own: l
am at peace with all men. I am
guilty Of the crime. Lord, thank
thee for the time You have allowed
me. Go with Thy people who are
standing around me. I am so glad
Lam allowed this privilege to talk.
Oh, Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, |

forgiven me-.
The hangman's black cap was then
lowered over his face, and at l2.3 s
P. NJ. the trap was sprung and II
minutes later be was pronounced
dead by Drs. Hood aad Owens.
The Rev. J. C. Goode, the colored
minister, who prayed for the negro
who was lynched for the attempted
assault on Miss Brooks last Summer
was also on the scaffold with Evans,
and had been with him during the
morning.
At 1859 Evans body was cut

KEPT GOOD STUFF.
President Harrisons Way OF Telling
a Good Presbyterian.

Col. Dan Ransdell, sergeant-at-
arms of the Senate, and lifelong
friend of Benjamin Harrison, says he
has known few public men more abb
steminous than was the President,
but that on one occasion he was re-
quired to obtain q drink of whisky
for the Chief Magistrate under cir
cumstances that were somewhat en-
barrassing.
He had accompanied the President
on a trip to Cleveland, which they
reached in the midst of drizzling
cold rain. Mr.. Harrison intimated
desire for glass Of something good
and Ransdell consulted the butler.
This dignihed parsonage had been In
structed not to offer liquor Of any
kind to the President, whom the host
knew to be like himself, rigid Pres
bytertao.
But Ransdell was not to be put OF
and the whiskey was forthcoming.
smacking his lips appreciately after
the generous drink, President Har-
rison said: Dan, have always no.
ticed that the better Presbyterian
man is the better whiskey he keeps.
