"BOSS" JOHNSON.

1t appears that all of the democratic
fusionists, except Tom B. Johnson,
were willing to admit the justice and
fairness of the proposition made by the
"regularsn for a settlement of the ex-
isting quarrel in the legislature. All
that the regulars asked was that all
contests, except onec-Ausmus VS.. Day
be dismissed in the house, the senate
agreeing to dismiss all contests except
York VS.. Davis, from the same county
whence comes the Ausmus Day con-
test. The proposal was tair and hon
orable, but "Bossn johnson would not
have it. He is the man who managed
the fusion campaign on his side for
Capt. Hooper. He was doing it, as he
claimed, against "political machines"
and party "bossism." Can any one
conceive of more slavish machinery
than that which submits to one mans
dictation or more arbitrary boss than
the man who thus defies public senti-
ment and wields the machine whip.
The regulars are pursuing the right
course this time, at any rate. Chat

BRISTOL MINISTERS
WON'T MARRY ELOPERS

Bristol, Tenn, Jan. 5.-The
Bristol Ministerial association
adopted resolutions pledging its
members, more than twenty in
number, not to marry eloping
couples on Tennessee soil, con-
trary to the laws of the state
from which either or both of the
elopers come. The resolutions
condemn the hundreds of hasty
and /" indecent" marriages of
elopers here annually, and me-
morializes the Tennessee legisla-
ture to pass laws to prohibit
them. One local marrying
parson" has married nearly A.
900 eloping couples from Virgin
ia and West Virginia, where the
laws prohibit the marriage of
persons under FL years of age
without consent.

IDEAL WEDED
LIFE BLASTED
CITIZEN or PENSACOLA
While Temporarily Insane Cuts
His Wife's Throat After Fifty
Years of Welded Life.

Pensacola, Fla, Jan. 5.-Temporary
insanity last night brought fearful
ending to nearly fifty years of almost
ideal married life. William Morgan,
an aged and wealthy stock raiser, cut
his wife's throat with a pocket knife,
bringing death in few seconds. Then
standing above her body with the open
knife gripped in his hand he cried
out:
81 wish l were dead, too"
The insane's man cry was a futile
threat, for he did not take his own life
and is under arrest today.
The tragedy occurred just after dark,
within sight of the lights of Morgan's
beautiful home, one of the finest in this
section. His wife had slipped out of
the house in terror at her husbands
queer behavior. She was almost within
reach of escape when Morgan noticed
her escape and dashed after her.
Within few steps of the house he
overlook her.
Morgan was seventy years old, his
wife was sixty-five and it was said
that for years not a cross word had
passed between them.

brother, Nelson, is in Jail badly
hurt and resting under a charge
of murder in connection with
Hiram's death as a result of a

According to Nelson's story, he
went to Oregon City yesterday to
collect his quarterly penson.
When he returned home and en-
tered the house Hiram, with an
axe in his hand, met him and be-
gan to strike at him. Nelson

Tended himself, striking his bfoth-
er several times.

House Held Short Session.

Nashville, Jan, 5.-The legis.
lative deadlock continues and nc
business is being transacted by
either body. The independent
democrats and republicans were
in their seats when the house met
this morning, but the regular
democrats did not put in an ap-
pearance. After a short session
the house adjourned until 3
o'clock this afternoon. Should
the deadlock continue Captain
Ben w. Hooper, governor-elect,
cannot be sworn in and as a con-
sequence Patterson will continue
as governor. The leaders OF
both factions are hard at work in

compromise that will be agree
able to both sides, but so far
nothing has been accomplished

LEADERS HARD
AT WORK
TO REACH An AGREEMENT
There is no Indication that Peace
is IN Sight and all May go
Home and Stay.

Surface indications early on
the fourth day of the present
legislative term were not favor
able to an early agreement be-
tween the fusionists and reg
ular" democrats in the house.
The failure yesterday after
noon of the peace agreement of
the forenoon was a decided disap-
pointment on both sides of the
legislative fight. 1t developed
that the agreement, as the result
of which the regulars of the
house were to qualify, was made
dependent upon the ratification
of I. B. Johnson, the attorney,
representing parties in pending
contests. Mr.. Johnson would
not ratify the agreement. He
says he advised against COM
promise, and that there never
was moment when the fusionists
could afford to entertain prop
osition from members who would
remain on the outside and refuse
to take the oath of Office.
There are those who are pre-
dieting now that there will likely
be no Legislative session this
year. Why such a thing does
seem possible on the surface,
there are those in the ranks of
both fusionists and regular y"
democrats who are still confer
ring with the hope of reaching
some sort of an agreement.

W|NsTON-sALEM ADOPTS
BACK HOME PLAN

The industrial department of the
Carolina, Clinchfield and Ohio Ry.,
was today notified by the board of
trade of Winston Salem, N. g., that
they have printed five thousand circu-
lars for school children to use in gath
ering the names and addresses of per-
sons who have moved west, which are
to be given to the board of trade and,
in turn, to the railroads participating
in the "Back Home" movement inau-
gurated by the Clinchfield. Besides
this they are carrying advertisements
in the newspapers of their section in
quiring for such addresses. To all
whose names are furnished the rail-
roads will mail special invitation to
come "back home" and share the glo-
ries of a new South, with specific de-
tails concerning opportunities for farm
ing, fruit growing and stock raising.
Boards of trade and newspapers all
over the South are endorsing the move
ment, and proffering their support.
The Clinchfield people say that over
million former Southerners will be
asked to visit their old homes in the
next few months. All important rail
roads east of the Mississippi and south
of the Ohio and Potomac rivers will
adopt the plan on the 10th of this

WHAT CAN The
HOUSE Do NOW /?

With affairs of the house in
their present state, having or
gained with majority present
but not a quorum, the question is
being asked, What next ?'
The answer is, it seems, that
all the house can do now, under
its own position, is to adjourn
from day to day, or until a
quorum arrives for the traEsac-
rion of business. e., the pas
sage of bills, etc. 1t is believed
by the fusionists, however, that
the house now has the right to
compel the attendance of men,
bers elected to it and absenting
themselves wilfully. Following
this out, it is probable if con-
tempt process is served and any
members were taken into custody
then habeas corpns proceedings
would result.
Many interesting complications
are possible, any, way, as matters
now stand, although it is gener-
ally believed matters viii be
settled amicably in a few hours

MRS. WILSON DEPARTED
Comparative Quiet Reigns Again
About the Corridors of Max
we'll House IN Nashville.


Nashville, Jan. 5.-Things are
bit quieter about the Maxwell
just now.
Mrs. Wilson has departed and
number of politicians are not a
bit sorry. This lady, whose ap-
pearance and subsequent move
ments in Nashville, and private
conferences with Legislators, cre-
ated so much talk, and likewise
SO much CONSERVATION, departed
from here last night. She and
her two trunks are now doubtless
in Knoxville, her home, for she
caught the go train for the East
Tennessee metropolis last night.
Her sudden departure, too, fol-
lows close on the heels of her en-
phatic statement that she was not
going to leave, and this, in turn,
has given rise to talk about the
hotels that Mrs. Wilson doubtless
received many kindly suggestions
from politicians that her leaving
was quite the right thing to do.
1t will be recalled that the advice
of the Hon. Jesse L. Rogers to
the lady was that if the two rep
resentatives would not join her in
statement that the things talk
ed about did not transpire, then
the thing for her to do was to
do was to leave town. The two
representatives have not Joined
her IN any such statement, so far
as can be learned. Anyway, Mrs.
Wilson has gone.
The departure of Mrs. Wilson
is being very generally predicated
upon the fact that things got en-
tirely too lively while she was
here, and the further fact that
too many peoples names were be-
ing mentioned in connection with
that lively state of affairs.
