FEhh FROM A Hofth WINDOW.
An Ex-Sheriff of Marlon County Killed
While on a Drunk.
Charleston, S. C., Jan. 7.—D. F. Berry,
sa ex-sberill of Marion county, and a well
to-do farmer, killed himself early this morn
ing by f Uing from the window of his h- tel.
Berry was about 50 years old, and was a
fine-looking man. He bad come to the city
with some prisoners, who are to be tried
before tbe United States circuit court on a
charge of selling whisky without a license.
Miliar and Jackson are the two witnesses in
the case, and arrived in the city and made
arrangements to share Berry’s room with
him, tbe three sleeping in one bed. Last
night Miller and Jackson went to bed at
their usual time, not concerning themselves
about Berry, who seldom retired until lnte.
Tbe two young men slept peacefully
until about 3:30 o’clock this morning,
when thoy were awakened by the
sound of a heavy body striking the ground,
and the clattering of a window sash, as
though it had been hurriedly lowered. The
young men looked out of the window, and
saw through the dud light of the early
morniug tne form of a man lying near a
lence. They found Berry with his skull
crushed, and death had been instantaneous.
Just how the accident occurred no one
seems to know, but it is believed to be the
termination of a drunken spree. Ever
since Berry arrived in the city he had been
drinking heavily.

D-C.OEB DIBiGBHE.
Even Kentuckians Differ as to the
Quality of Whisky Samples.
PYom the Wathingion Pott.
“W> have some queer cases to adjust in
this branch of the service,” raid an official
of the internal revenue bureau to a reporter.
“I never thought before that there was aay
doubt about a thorough Kentuckian’s ability
to judge good whisky, but it seems that
things have come to such a pa s out in
Breathitt county, in that state, that a num
ber of the citizens there deem it neevslai yt >
make affidavits to the fact. Some time ago
a small distillery in Breathitt county was
des royed by fire, and a question arose as to
the payment of the government tax on about
800 ga.lons of liquor, Thera aas aiso a dis
pute as to the quality of the stall, and the
department has beea deluged witn evidence
of one kind and another.
“Wbat has amused us all so much is that
in the various affidavits submit, ed these
Kentuckians, win* scarcely au exception,
have deemed it neceraary to swear that they
are all good judges of whisky-”
Tnere is another affidavit from a man who
states that the mor-lng after the fire be
rode his horse along the road he was in tbe
habit of traveling very olteu, and about a
mile below the spot where the stdl formerly
stood the animal was accustomed to driuk
water from the creek.
The horse hud never before failed to drink
at that place, but on this particular morn
ing he elevated his nose in the air and posi
tively refused to couoh one drop of the tiuid
because it wiimpregnated. IV’e haveco i
cludea that inasmuch as the average Ken
tuckian takes his liquor s:raigbt the horse
decid and that bo would take his drink straight
or not at all.
This same official says that the Breathitt
eouuty case has brought to mind a story
that was told several years ago on Senator
Blackburu and the late Senator Beck. A
friend of theirs, knowing that all Kentuck
ians are f‘ >nd of good Bourbon, is said to have
sent the senators a whole barret f the be-t
whisky that the state could afford. It was
a p ime article, and when the barrel was
tapped and tne senators had sampled it they
pronounced it fine, but each of the gentle
men declared that there was a slight taint
in the taste.
“I am of the opinion that it tastes of iron,”
said Mr. Beck.
“I do not agree with you,” replied Mr.
Blackburu, ‘‘Accordi g to my taste some
body has dropped a small piece of leather
in the barrel.”
As time wagged on the contents of the
barrel were consumed, and when at last the
barrel had been emptied with the aid of a
hundred or two of the friends of the sen
ators, Mr. Beck is declared to have insisted
on having the barrel opened, with a view
of determining whether ne or his colleague
was right. Ho the barrel was mashed all to
pieces, and after a didigent search a carpet
tack was found. Mr. Beck was right.
There was a taint of iron, and his frie ids
admitted that h s taste was decidedly
acute.
When Mr. Blackburn first became a sen
ator he had au experience that will be ap
propriate to relate just here, though the
story has, perhaps, bee.i told iu print bo
fore. He was speaking to some friends in
one of the He ate committee rooms about a
celebrated brand of whisky, aud made a
statement which one of the party dis uted.
There was nobody present who could decide
tbe matter, however. In a few moments
Senator Blair, who has Deen an abst iner
from alcoholic have ages all his life, en
tered the room. The New Hampshire
man was in a dreadful hurry to get a re
p rt. so he snatched it up aud was about to
leave tbe room, when he was accosted by
Mr. Blackburn and asked what he thought
of that particular brand of whi-ky. Mr.
Blair quite rudely replied, as he drew him
self away aud snatched the door open, “My
dear sir, I cannot tell whisky from
brandy.”
Mr.’Blackburn, not knowing that Mr.
Blair was such an enemy to intoxicants,
turned to the other gentlemen present and
said: “A man’s stomach must be iu a devil
of a condition when he can’t tell whisky
from brandy.”

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY. JANUARY 8, 1801.
Si. NAT Jit PLUMB* j HAT.
It Disturbs the Ferenlty of Comedian
William H. Crane.
From the >eic York Timet.
It is well known to the crowds that have
witnessed the performance of “The Senator”
at the Star tuat W, H. Crane, the comedian,
“makes up” to resemble as nearly as pwei
ble Senator Piumb of Kansas. Mr. Crane,
until quite recently, had flattered himself
that he had succeeded In reproducing the
figure and personal appear inco of the Kai
sas statesman almost to perfection, and he
was encouraged iu this notion by bis host
of friends, oil of whom were unanimous In
and clan g that “The Sena or” of the Star
and Mr. Plumb were "as alike as two
peas.” If the comparison was not original
it was at least emphatic, and was accepted
a-decisive on the question of Mr. Crane’s
make up.
But ihe comedian bas been subjected to a
como.ete disillusion on this subject, and by
the only perso in the world who was thor
oughly competent to criticise his “make
up,” Senator Plumb himself. Mr. Plumb, in
company with the Hon. Th >mas Ryan,
United States minister to Mexico, recently
visi ed tue Star and watched toe perform
ance of “Tne Senator.” Thelaughed and
applauded as vigorously as anybody in the
large audience, but it was noticed that
whenever the “business” of tbe pay re
quired Mr. Crane to display his “stovepipo”
hat Senator Plumb mov and wearily in his
seat and wbbpei ed to his companion. When
the urtain finally dropped on ihe last act,
Senator Piumo and Minister Ryan visit and
Mr. Crane in his dressing-r om. Mr.
Plumb’s first greeting as he stepped inside
the door aud grasped the comedian’s hand
was: “Crane, where did you get that hat?”
“Hat! That hat 1” stammered the come
dian, pick ng up the object which lad
been thus flippantly referred to and bolding
it admiringly at arm’s length. That batt
What’s the matter with that bat?”
Ob, the hat’s all righ:," laughed Senator
Plumb. "Only I never wore a silk bat in
my life, and my creditors wouldn’t know
me for myself with a head piece like that.’
Crane, who had been fla taring himself
that his c muterf -it presentment of Sen it r
Plu nb was a little short of perfection,
dropped into his ’hair and fairly gaped. He
threw the offending hat into tbo corner and
declar and that he would never wear it again,
“But 1 have worn it, ands all again,” said
the comedian, in relating the story. "Pe>~
pie in New York would not recognize ‘The
Sena or’ now without his stove pipe. I
shall make Plumb wear that hat iu spi e of
himself till tbe end of my season ere.
Then, when I go to Washi gton, ‘The Sena
tor’ will appear in a plain, round felt hat,
the o Jy kind Mr. Flurab was ever known
to wear, and he will wear it so lo.ig as he
breathes the breath of life ’’
MARK TWAIN A NAIURALIBT.
How a Colonial M. P. Was Deceived by
Bis Description of a chamois.
PYom the Independent.
Not even in the wildest flights of his im
agination can Mark Twain have ever
dreamed that a portion of his “Tramp in
Europe” devoted to the discussion of the in
•ect which he so amusingly desciibos as a
chamois, would oue dav be read aloud in a
legislative assomhly and become the subject
of a parliamentary aebats. And vet this is
precisely w at has just occurred in New
Zealand. The g >vernment of the colony is
anxious to acclimatize the chamois, and in
order to acci mplish this laudable object
asked parliament for a vote of £l5O. When
tbe vote came up for discussion an bonora
lle member earn id Kerr a ose in righteous
indignation aud demanded further informa
tion.
“I should like to hear from the govern
ment exactly what these ‘shammies’ are. I
am told that they are a cross between a pig
and a sheep, and that they breed scab.”
“There is a book about them in the library,”
politely replied a member on the other side
of tbe House; "I’ll go and fetch it for you.”
Mr. Kerr, touched by this act of courtesy,
g aciously received the volume, and began
reading out, in a pompous voice, the pas age
pointed out to him—a famous passage from
one of the works of tbe eminent naturalist,
Samuel Clemens, better known to many of
his readers as Mark Twain. As the reading
proceeded the House quickly realize! the
j >ke. Not -o Mr. Kerr. When he came to
the statement that the “chamois is no big
ger than a mustard-see 1.” he stopped him
self, and, glaringo i the House, now r ariug
with laughter, fle.cely asked: “What do we
want with animals like that in New
Zealand? Why, they would be worsa than
rabbits!”
THE LAND OF OPMIR.
Some Speculations on Solomon’s Lost
Kingdom.
PYom Harper't Weekly.
The belief has long prevailed that the
enormous quantities of gold wbiefi contrib
uted to the splendor of the reign of Solomon
were brought from some part of southeast
Africa.
“And they came to Ophir and fetched
from thence gold, 430 talents, and brought
it to King Sol imon." Ophir was famous
for its gold in the days of Job, who speaks
of laying up gold as dust, and tbe gold of
Ophir was as tbe stones of the brook?.”
Where was Ophir? Some say in Malacca;
others have located it iu India; others iu
Arabia, and not a few have contended for
tbe southeast coast of Africa, about
Sofala.
There has been much discussion on the
subject, but the discussion bas been profit
less. The Sofala region of South Afn ca has
as much to recommend it as any ot>er. As
told in the Bible, the to y of the Queen of
Sheba and the story of Ophir have a singu
lar relation to each other, and seem to sug
gest that the location of the one was not tar
from tbe home of tbe other. Iu Solomon’s
time tbe round voyage to and from Ophir
covered a period of three years.
This has bv some been considered fatal to
the South African theory. When we cons
consider the times, and take into account
the diffi ulty of transport, the objection
loses much of its force. It is, at least, a re
markable circumstance that discoveries
should ris be made in the very region of
South Africa so long favored by one set of
trad tious—discoveries which p int unmis
takably to very ancient occupations by a
people advanced in the arts and industries
of civilization, and a so to the plent ful ex
istence of gold in the region at one time,
however it may be now.
WAS 6IIT NO BULL A Jo.W?
It is Alleged an i x-Cbarleston He
brew Was His Grandfather.
The Charleston World presents this story
of Sitting Bull: “ ‘A gnat many people are
alleged,’said a prominent citizen leeently,
‘sooner or later, to have Hebrew blood in
their veins.’ Nowit is stated that Shtii g
Bull can trace his ancestry of Jewish blood
as nea as his grandfather, who was a
trader named Jacobs, and Bull himself
b >re that name. Jacobs landed
In Charleston from Poland some
time in 1780, and went west,
where he plied bis crafty schemes with
inch ingenuity that ha soon became an im
portant personage among the savage deni
zens of the forest. He married a dusky
maide i, and Sitting Bull, who inherited a
great deal of his cunning, is said to be bis
grandson. Thera a e now in this city at
least two people wh > remember bearing
their parents speak of Jacobs, who made
himself so unpopular in the early days of
Charleston.”
Euit to recover His Bones.

During the Christmas holi
days your thoughts and your
purchases were for others.
Generous—proper. Now you
have a right to think of yourselves
again. What are you needing
in our line for your comfort?
Buy it—the winter season isn't
half over. So don't try to
bridge along until spring with
your old clothes. You’ll feel
better if you are well dressed.
Everybody does.
By the way, we haven't taken
you into our confidence about
our Storm Coats. When you
DO need one, you know, you
need it badly, and in a hurry.
We've a cheap line, taking the
price as a cue, but an extrava
gant lot of quality in them.
They'll cover you from your
head to your heels—that's what
you want stormy days. Fair
weather Overcoats—plenty of
them. You can’t help knowing
how stylish they are—enough of
them are on the streets this
season. Your kind of prices,
