The Tune of Tunes.

From the London Chronicle.
\ correspondent twho has been singing
"Auld Lang Syne' in northern Niserta),
asks me what is the most popular tune on
earth Can you find it? Aud Lang
Syne'' goes far, but it's tune is not univer-
sal You may suggest God Save the
King" which is sung in more than one
lanc uage You may suggest Home,
Sweet Home" But that is known only
where English is spoken. Then the right
answer struck me.
The universal tune hasn't name, but
* set to many varied words. You may
hear it from Strayed revelers. who shout
1--WE wont go home till morning. You
may hear it in France To the words
"Malbrook sen va-t-cn guerre.' You may
hear 1t In French Canada with the sub
stitution of ST Phipps,' who went to
war. And always The same tune that
you will perhaps recall better as the gen.
eraI confession Of diners who rise to
honor the guest Of the evening by shout
.ng For hes a jolly good fellow" Is
there any other tune that carries SO far?

the Wife of Man He
Slew.

MACON, Ga, December 2S.-NicholaS
Wilburn twenty-five years old, farmer
of Jones county. confessed in the Jail
here that December IL he killed James
King, owner of one of the largest plan
tations in middle Georgia, at the sugges-
ton of Mrs King and on her promise to
become his wife.
Mrs. king is forty-two years old, of
liking. appearance, the mother of six
children ard a leader in church affairs
and social circles in Jones county. I'M
| mediately after Wilburn had made his
statement deputies went to her home and
arrested her.
News OF the arrest was circulated in
Gray, the county seat of Jones county, and
there were many angry threats against
the widow of the slain farmer when
Wilburn's story became noised about.
Mrs. King Protests Innocence.
Fearing the danger of an attack by the
dead farmers friends, the authorities
| took Mrs. King from the Jail at Gray
and hurried her to the stronger cells in
the Jail in Macon. Mrs. King bore up
detiantly and protested her innocense.

says she declared. Il did not have any
thing to do with the death of my hus-
band"
The woman asserted that Wilburn's
charre that she kept $6lD in readiness to
aid him In flight in case he was suspect
| cd was absolutely false.
The body Of king was found in the
woods abut two miles from his home at
Roundoak December Is. His faithful
setter dog was standing guard at his
side. King held a shotgun In his hands,

Wiburn was taken before the prosecutors
yesterday, and in the presence of w. 5.
Simmons. a Macon merchant and brother
of Mrs King. he was told that the negro
had been making damaging admissions.
Wilburn's Statement.
Then Vilburn said he was ready to
confess and prefaced his account by
charging Mrs. King with offering mar
riage as the price of the killing.
Wilburn recited the details of the kill
ing without any hesitation and nswered
all questions freely and frankly.
Barber. the negro. said that few min
utes before the shooting Wilburn told
him that he was his way to kill Mr..
King. The negro says he tried to find
Mr.. King and warn him. but was unsuc-
cessful. Barber declares lie had repeat
edly heard Mrs. King tell her husband she
wished she could get rid of him, because
