penitentiary, at Raleigh.
Sheriff Wheeler. OF Oxford, IN gong

half dressed prisoner, eyaded the mob
keeping its members from his track by
pretending to 60 toward Roxboro, in
stead of Durham.
A blood-spattered well-house, with
a knife beside it, gave the clue which
led to the arrest of Montague, who
lives in the neighborhood. In his
house the bloody skirt of Mrs. Sanders,
aud other parts of her clothing, were
found. Blood and auburn hair also
we're found on the negro's clothes.
That the first intention was to throw
her body into the well appears likely.
copious quantities OF blood having been
found all about the place.
Suspicion fell upon Montague III a
remarkable way. He had been heir-
ing an Overton family butcher hog.
Miss Sanders also was there. While at
work upon the slaughtered animals
he was seen with knife which IS said
to be that found near the well. a
neighbor, Immediately upon seeing
it. exclaimed, That's Nathan Monta
gue's knife; he tried to sell it to me
today"
The murder was discovered 10y
neighbors, attracted by the fire. in the
midst of which the bodies we're visible.
The old mau and his granddaughter
we're close together, being found in the
corner of the house, and the daughter
was several feet away.
At the inquest yesterday it was
declared tina; the girls screams were
heard about 10 O'Clock, pistol shot
following cries OF fmurder.
In the negro's bone were found a
pistol with three empty chambers and
the bloody skirt, which was identified
Immediately by the girls mother, who
said she had worn it the same day.
Mrs. Sanders was visiting in Oxford,
and reached the scene yesterday after
noon.
Montague's wife, on the stand, de-
clared she had never seen the skirt
before.
With the exception OF some ex-
plantations differing materially from
those of his wife, Montague has said
nothing to incriminate himself.

nuELs ON THE TAPIs.

A large number Of duels are to be
fought at Nagyyarad, Hungary, as q
result of dispute about the costume
worn by the president of the local union
of solicitors at a ball. 1t appears that
the man tn question attended ball
given by the Nagyyarad law students
in light blue summer suit aud brown
boots. The townfolks who had been
invited interpreted this costume as an
insult aimed at them. A meeting OF
the law students called to debate the
question was of very stormy nature.
One hundred and twenty-five deadly
insults. it is recorded, we're offered,
and are to be wiped out by a cores
ponding number Of duels. The police
had to break up the meeting. The
duels are to be fought with swords.
an article was published in radical
newspaper in Madrid Monday night
calling Deputy Myro, who was involved
in personal quarrel in the chamber
Monday with Deputy Iglasias, coward.
When the question between them was
settled Monday, in time to prevent a
duel, Deputy Fuente took part part IN
the settlement, siding with Iglasias.
1t appears that Myro connected Fuentc
with the publication referred to, and
challenged him to meet BIN on the
field OF honor. The seconds of the two
men met yesterday afternoon and made
arrangements for a duel, which viii
probably be fonght today.

of flowers or chou posed we'll toward the
back for trimming. In these turbans the
cleverness with which the straw is hand ed
and the resulting lines tell tho story, and
consequently the best Of these models
command g price quite out Of proportion to
their air of chartered simplicity, for they
have passed through artist hands and
artists in millinery come high. We have
seen most attractive little draped turbAns
OF this class in white with a touch Of black
and one good model in white yedda has a
drapery of black velvet running from the
right front across the top to the left back,
where it ends under a full feather tuft.
The draped turban made entirely from
tulle appears in some very attractive forms
and either in one tone or in several shades
OF one color Often the tulle is used In
soft full folds interviewer and one shade
may veil another. A handsome ornament
of some sort, usually holding a soaring
aigrette or plume is likely to be the only
trimming for one OF these tulle turbans,

airy version OF the Oriental turban which
is fashioned from an i~nterminable fold Of
linen.

closely around the head, while the crown
is softly draped. A good model has the
soft maize color straw drawn low around
the head as one might swathe a wide
textile fold, in front the two ends cross,
one disappearing, the other running back
on the left side OF the crown. where its
fulness flares to fan or ring shape. The
draped crown Is of black satin and a
jeweled ornament holds the straw drapery
in the front
More fantastic turban effects are draped
of black satin with close low set brim and
high full crown and are trimmed merely
in big lozenge shaped motifs Of white
or colored yedda posed round the brim
with the drapery emerging from beneath
them.
Then there are the flower turbans, al
ways lovely, and the turbans with brlms
of straw and entire crowns of flowers.
In the latter class the newest shapes have
r. plain or draped brim OF straw, out OF
which the flowers seem to be growing, a
flower pot effect which is slightly absurd
and yet, grace to the beauty of c%oloring
and materials. often quantity charming.
