CAWDOR CASTLE.
Sow Macbeth, Who Founded It, Hap
pened to Select Its Site.
Tho late Earl of Cawdor was the
owner of two charming residences in
Wales—Staekpolo Court, Pembroke
shire, where he died, and Golden
Grove, Carmarthenshire —but these
were mere pleasure houses by compari
sou with the ancestral home of the
Campbells, Cawdor castle at Nairn.
This fine north British dwelling re
mained almost undisturbed from the
death of Sir Hugh Campbell In 1716
for a period of nearly 150 years, when
It was conscientiously restored by its
late owner. Cawdor castle itself had
its rise in a fierce and wild age, around
which traditions of a hazy nature clus
ter. It is a legend in Naim that the
murder by Macbeth was committed in
an old chamber of the castle tower,
and visitors wishing to conduct them
selves with gravity and respectful rever
ence are expected to receive this story
with an expression of solemnity not un
tinged with awe. That the “silver
Bkin” of King Duncan was “laced with
his golden blood” in this parti ular
apartment is a fable that need not now
be enlarged upon.

Is, however, strongly suggestive l- its

it upon the back of an asj and wher
ever the auimal should halt to set
about his work. The ass “came to a
sandstill at the russetbura at the third
hawthorn from the starting point” and
lay down. Curiously enough, as If to
confirm this tradition, to this day in
the dungeon beneath the tower a haw
thorn grows. The other two trees have
disappeared, the last one as lately as
1886. Many stirring tales are told of
tho later history of Cawdor castle,
which came to be left uu tenanted for
long years owing to the Campbells de
parting for Wales, where they married
young ladies with ample fortunes. —

Tlie Place of Love.
Home is the place of love, of rest
of peace, the dearest spot on earth to
many a heart, with an influence
stronger than death, and binding us
with a spell that neither time nor
change can break. It is home that
molds and fashions individual life. A
loving and happy home sends out lov
ing, kind, considerate and wise chil
dren to bless other hearts and homes.
Just think what a sacred place is a
pure home. Husband and wife joined
in truest and purest iove, find sweet
rest and peace in that love; and the
children born of loving parents, par
take of that love and blend together
in sweet and loving union, while pa
rental love abounds, making it truly a
loving and lovely home, though it be
in the dreariest spot on earth; for the
beauty of homes does not depend
upon the outward appearance, but
upon the heart of home—the affec
tions.

FATAL PISTOL SHOT*
Colored Beau Seeks Virgie
Griffieths’s ComDanv.
AS SHE WAS LEAVING CHURCH
Her Refusal Drove Hi in Into a
Perfect Frenzy.
FIRED FIVE SHOTS AW THE GIRL
Fatal Ending of a Colored Church Gather
ing at Mayavlllo—Murderer Still
•t Large.
Maysville, Ga., August 23.—Ed
Fields, a notorious negro of this coun
ty. shot his sweetheart, Virgie Giiffeth
to deaih last night on their way home
tram church because she refused lrs
company.
For a long time Fields has been
paying court to the Griffetbtgirl, and
by many of the negroes it was under
stood that they were engaged to be
mairied. Last night he escorted her
to church at Hurricane Shoals, a
small settlement near here: Every
thing went well on the way to church,
aud during the services the couple
occupied the same seat and seemed
entirely absorbed in each other. Fields
was especially fervent in Ins responses
to the prayers, and the two negroes
led the singing.
At the conclusion of the services
the congregation split up into little
groups, as is usual, aud Virgie became
separated from Ed. She met another
admirer, for whom she appears to have
conceived a stronger fancy than for
Fields, and arm in arm the two started
home in the midst of a crowd all
all going in the same direction. Field
accomyanied the couple, sulking along
in the rear and answering all attempts
at conversation in a surly manner.
Finally the hilarity of Virgie and her
new beau became unbearable to him,
and tie made his way to the front, aud
in atigry tones he demanded that the
Griffeths girl walk with him.
For a few minutes there was a ter
rific quarrel, and in the end Fields
drew his revolver, and holding it but
a few feet from his sweetheart sent
all five bullets into her body, produc
ing instant death. Realizing in an
instant what he had done, he hurst
through the dazed mob, and before a
hand could detain bun dashed into
the thicket and escaped- Meanwhile
the girl lay weltering in her life blood,
while the stupefied negroes, supposing
her still alive, did everything possible
to recall her to consciousness.
The news was brought to this place
and a posse was organized, blood
hounds procured and search for Fields
started. He is still at large. The
coroner’s jury held an inquest today,
and pronounced the killing a murder.
The neuroes of the vicinity are greatly
enraged at the crime, and if they can
get hold of Fields before the officers
find him, there wi.l probably be no
need fora civil trial.
