The Commercial Gazette, of Cincinnati, suggests that the Knights of Labor be denominated the Knights of Politics. James A. Wales, one of the brightest cartoonists on Puck and other illustrated papers, died suddenly in New Y r ork last week. Tue Indians suffered terribly during the late storms and cold weather in Mon tana Territory. Several of them were frozen to death. Representative-elect Simmons, ot the second North Carolina district, is the youngest man in Congress. He is tliifty two years of age. .A-. President Cleveland has been suffer ing from severe rheumatic pains lately, which is said to account for his some times peevish and irritable disposition. George W. Childs, of Philadelphia, has sent a contribution of five hundred dollars, to James R. Randall, at Augus ta, Ga., tor the proposed monument to Paul liayne. John E. Owens, the veteran comedian, died last week at his home in Baltimore, aged about sixty years. He was a sym pathetic and realistic actor, a generous, hight-toned and moral gentleman. When “Sunset” Cox advanced to take the oath in the House of Representatives there was a perfect storm of applause, not from the galleries, but from the Hour of the house. It made the little man blush. It was the roseate blush of Sun set. Rev. Dr. Edward McGlynn, paster of St. Stephen’s Roman Catholic church in New city, has been summoned to Rome by the Pope to explain his ac tive action in politics in connection with the late election for Mayor in New York City. A very elaborately illuminated Christ mas book for children has made its ap pearance. It is called “Noah’s Aik.” One of the pictures depicts Mrs. Noah riding up to the ark on a mule. It’s a won der she didn’t Noahnough to select a better steed from the large and varied-as sortment on hand. Thomas Dalton, a young man well known in Memphis, was shot and killed last week in the rotunda of the Peabody Hotel by Russell Godwin. Dalton was seated when Godwin approached and shot him four times. Godwin refused to make a statement. The alleged cause of the tragedy is a scandalous rumor. Paul Hull, the Chicago Xeics re porter, who wrote up a debauch in a beer cellar, indulged in by some city officials, was assaulted and dangerously hurt by one of the debauches, Commissioner “Buck” McCarty. Hull was unconscious for quite a while after being hurt, and grave fears are entertained that he will not recover. Rev. Dr. Woodrow’s evolution theo ry, and the discussion and animadver sion in relation to it, has resulted in his being retired from the Perkin’s professor ship of Natural Sciences in the Presby terian Seminary at Columbia, S. C., and Rev. J. L. Girardean D. D. of that city j has been elected to succeed him. Miss Winnie Davis, the daughter of ex-President Davis, has been the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Ethery, in Syracuse, New York, but is now in New York City, and has apartments in the New York Hotel. During her stay in Syracuse she was the recipient of many social honors and made a pleasing im pression upon those she met. Carl Van Miller, a bogus count and a cidevant musical director, has been sent to prison in Jacksonville, Florida, for two years, for stealing valuables from the houses of citizens, making lore to his music pupils and stealing their jew elry. He claimed to he a scion of Aus trian nobility, but the Austrian Minis ter at Washington repudiated him. President Dwight, of Y"ale, is said to have a prejudice against going to lied for the night without taking a long walk. His usual habit is to sit until 10 or 11 o’clock pouring over his books or driving his pen, and then tramp across New Haven's old green and through tiie de serted streets of the town. He finds a walk the best thing in the world to in duce sleep after study. Ex-Alderman E. A. Smith, ot Galves ton, Texas, who was convicted of embez-, zling $4,500 while treasurer of the Cotton Screwers’ Benevolent Association, was recently sent to the penitentiary, chain ed by the neck, and handcuffed to a com mon thief on one side and a would-be negro murderer on the other, while the officer in charge ot the prisoners con spicuously displayed a big six-shooter during the trip. United States Senator Jones, of Florida, was thrown from his carriage and injured in Detroit last week. He will be laid up for a while but expects to be in Washington after the holidays* The Senator’s actions have been so strange lately, that his friends are fearful that his mind is giving way. It is said to be a case of unrequited love with him, the fair one whom he adores resides in De troit, and though she refuses hia auit, he lingers still In that city. METHODIST PRACHKRS.

Til R SOLON’S AN 1) THE SNOW A GUAI’IIIC DKSCIIIPTION OF THE WAY OUlt LEGISLATORS ■ Whiled Away the Time During the Snow- Storm. Atlanta Constitution.] The members of the legislature enjoy ed themselves as much as anybody dur ing the snow- storm. After the early adjournment, which occurred a lew minutes after the assembly, the members lingt red for some time around the Capi tol building, many of them staying in tlie Dali of the House of Representatives. An interesting group discussed the weather arouud the northwest water cooler of the hall, and all agieed that it w-as the heaviest snow that had occurred in this section of Georgia in many a year. “It is even heavier than the great snow storm of 1809,” said Colonel Si Hawkins, as he wrapped a handkerchief around his neck and turned up the bot tom of his pantaloons. “No, I think you are mistaken about that; for, if 1 remember correct,” and here Colonel Mark Hardin was inter rupted by the general shout which greet ed his remark, which might have appear ed less ambiguous Dacl he been allowed to finish. Mr. Franklin, of Thomas, spent most of the morning gazing on the snowy surface of the house tops and earth, from the fourth story of the capitol. It was the fiist snow lie had ever seen, and lie was delighted with it. Messrs. Huff, Russell, Glenn, Clay, McCord, and a number of the other younger members of the body joined a local snowballing terror organization, and said they had not had so much fun since the session begun. Hon. Joe Lamar said he had a six year old boy at home who had never seen snow, and as all of Augusta’s snow w’as s eet, he regretted that he had nut brought him here with him. “Why, just send him some when you write,” suggested Captain Dick Wilson, as he punched tlie long hand of the ancient chronometer and moved it to the position where it ought to have been. Hon. Mr. Lumsden, of White, said that he doubted if lie had any constituen cy left at home as his county was about three feet under snow, and it was still falling. “That’s nothing to my county,” said Hon. John Perry, of Gilmer, “for the last time it snowed there it was so deep til “Chestnuts?” chimed iu a dozen voices, and the speaker said that he thought the building unsafe, and left. “Ever since I was a boy,” said Hon. Lewis Arnheim, “l have loved to see the snow, and it is grand to-day. But the best thing is to jnst put some milk and sugar with it and —” “Thanks, we will go with you—l was just about to suggest it myself,” came in wonderful harmony a dozen voices, and the gathering dispersed. The members spent theday in various ways, many going out in sleighs, many visiting the fair sex and others passing the time in keeping their rooms. Hon Bob. Berner thought the judiciary commit’ee ought to meet in the atrei noon, but the committeemen were of the impression that if the house had decided that it was not best to risk death, that it would be injustice to themselves and the house to put the committee in the slight est danger. In all, the legislature passed the day pleasantly.” THE PRETTIEST CLERK IN WASH INGTON. From the Omaha Herald.] It is said that the prettiest girl in the employ of the government is a copyist at the Navy Department. This is saying a good deal, as about 4,000 women hold po sitions in Washington, and probably 2,- 000 more in other parts of the country are receiving salaries trom Uncle Sam. Some of the “Countesses,” as the girls employed in the Treasury are called, are very pretty, but the belle of the navy is claimed to be entitled to the apple of Paris. She is a niece of our Minister to England, Phelps, and her family reside in this city. For about four years ihe young lady has been employed as a type writer in the office of Commodore Wal ker, the chief of the bureau of detail, receiving a salary of S9OO a year. She is a dark-eyed blonde, with a beautiful figure, and tlie officers of the navy are all her devoted slaves. She was so much interrupted in her work by ihem, that, Commodore McCalla, in whose room she is, was compelled to prohibit the officers from interviewing her in department hours, and got a large screen, behind which her attractions are now hidden, [f the Commotio e leaves his room for a moment there is certain to be some bol < young tar about the building to _ru n iu for a chat with ihe beauty, and when McCalla returns the culprit is profuse in his excuses. The number of officers who have type writing to be done is astonish ing, and they all want to superintend the' work. The young lady does not appear to be aware if her attractions, but cannot but notice that the other type writers are not in such demand as her self. When she leaves the department at night there are generally two or more officers accidentally waiting in the corri dor to escort her safely down the elevator and see her to the street ear.

SEQUEL TO AX OLD TRAGEDY EX ACTED IX GEORGIA. A Husband Takes the Life's Blood of Hi* Young Wife** Betrayer, and Become* a Wanderer on the Face of the Earth. New York World.] An envelope which reached the office of the Governor of Georgia this week, postmarked Kansas City, Mo,, recalled twoot the most appalling tragedies ever recorded, in one of which a wife’s honor was ruined, her betrayer slain, and her husband made a convict, while in the other a frail creature lost her life at the hauds of a confirmed old roue. In 1874 there lived in one of the pret tiest little cottages on Hunter street, in tills city, the family of Colonel Spinks. The daughter of the household, Miss Cora, was just blooming into the graces of young womanhood. When young Sam Hill, the son of an excellent family and the possessor of abundant means, se cured her hand in marriage, he was the recipient of congratulations from every hand. Into a cottage near that of her parents Sam Hill inducted his charming wife. Their devotion towards each other in these early days of love is a tale still told in the neighborhood. In time the cares of business led the husband into other cities. He noticed a gradually increasing despondency in his wile. It was a long time before the truth broke in upon him, and when it did it was on the streets, where he heard his wife’s name freely handled. Crazed with grief he rushed home, and repulsing his wife’s accus tomed caress, flung her roughly from him, while he poured forth the revelation which had been made to him. On her bended knees she confessed all. She had been betrayed by John l\ Simmons at the house of Lottie Ross. Silently he raised his weeping wife from her knees, and kissing her, lelt the house without a word. Down Hunter street he walked, until he reached White hall. There he beheld, a little in ad vance, the figure of John P. Simmons. He tracked his steps through the crowd into the National hotel and into tbo bar room. Simmons stood in the act of tak ing a drink when a bullet from Hill’s re volver w r ent, crashing through his brain. The trial which fo lowed was long and tedious. The public was shocked when Mrs. Hill entered the courtroom and fondled and caressed tlie husband who was the victim of her folly. To conclude the trial Hill made a s atement full of protestation of love for his wife, and'.hmi the pair kissed each other in open court. The sympathy which was felt for the husband gave w*ay to disgust at such a scene, and the jury promptly rendered a verdict of guilty of murder. Sim Hill went up to the supreme trib unal to have his sentence confirmed. Finally, wdien all hope had to be aban doned, Sam Hill’s friends succeeded in having him put in the lunatic asylum, from which he escaped later, and for stx years he has been a wauderer. He first went to New Orleans, then to Corpus Christi, Tex., and finally to the City of Mexico, following the career of a desper ate gambler. He always kept posted on home affairs, however. Regularly every week, until six monts ago, a letter ad dressed to Mrs. Cora Hill would be re cieved at the Atlanta post office, and be ing as regularly refused by Mrs. Hill, always found its way to the dead-leter office in Washington, 'l’hree years ago Mrs. Hill applied in DeKalb county Su perior Court for a divorce. The case was never called for trial, because, it is un derstood, that Mr. Sam W. Small, now an evangelist, but then a stenographer, was retained by Sam Hill to fight the case. And now the second tragedy remains to bo told. Lottie Ross, the beautiful blonde at whose house Mrs. Hill was drugged to her ruin, kept sinking lower and lower, hut she never ceased to be beautiful. One morning about tw*o years ago the people of Nashville were aston ished to hear that Col. Boyd, a wealthy gentleman of that city, had murdered his mistress, Birdie Patterson. Twice Boyd has been convicted of the crime, and he is still engaged in the unpleasant duty of fighting the verdict of the court. Bovd, who has many relatives in Marietta, Ga., during on* of hisjvisits there, took a run down to Atlanta, met Lottie Ross, be came enamored of her and had her con veyed to Nashville under the name of Birdie Patterson. Now, Sam Hill, having traveled the world over, is in Kansas City. Asa sentence for murder hangs over him, he must keep shady, but he has ventured to write a long letter to Gov. Gordon, nar rating his temptations and pleading for that executive clemency which it is not improbable he may obtain. FOR LOVE’S SAKE. AN INFATUATED YOUNG HUSBAND KI LBS HIMSELF Because of His Beautiful Wife’s In difference. A telegram from Louisville, Ky., says: Five months ago William Dunn, a young man who had barely attained his majori ty, was married to Miis Minnie Howard at 1226 High street. This morning his dead body was lying on a bed in the room in which the cetemony had been per formed, he having sent a bullet through his brain. The bride was a pretty young girl, and the couple seemed to get on in the usual happy style fora month or two. Differences then sprung up between them. This was continued lor some weeks before an opnn rapture occurred between the couple, although they had frequent disputes. When the quarrel came it was a violent one and resulted in a separation about a montb-ago. Since that time, however, Dunn has visited the house several times,and efforts have been made to arrange the trouble between them without success, the young wife seeming utterly indifferent. Dunn was very much in love with his young wife, and was almost crazed b/ her refusal to become reconciled. 1 his morning lie went to his wife’s room and asked for a final interview, which he granted him. She talked to him qmetly, but told him that she was confident they could not live happily together and had therefore de termined to push an action for divorce. At the end of the long talk the wife kissed the husband good-by and left the room. She had scarcely closed the door when a pistol shot rang out ir. the air. Rushing back into the room she found Dunn lying across the bed quite dead,the blood trickling from a powder-burned wound in the temple. The report of the pistol brought a crowd of people into the room, and the young wife was carried out, the coroner called and an inqu *st held. In Dunu’s pocket was found a letter protesting his undying love tor his wife, and telling rter if she could not live with him he would refuse longer to live.

Xotes Nicked From Exchange*. Mr. George C. Brown, for some years past propiietor of Brown’s hotel, in Ma con, died last week. The town council of Blakely has fixed the liquor license for 1887 at SSOO. This is an advance of SIOO. The contributions to the Young Men’s Christian Association in Columbus have reached fhe sum of $727. The Central Railroad Company of Georgia has declared a semi-annual divi dend of four per cent., payable on and after the 20th of this mouth. Virgil Hyatt, the lad who was shot ac cidently by his brother at Ellijay, is said to be gradually improving, and every thing points to his ultimate recovery. The roof of the Methodist Church at Resaca, six miles north of Calhoun, fell in last week from the weight of the snow. Nothing but the walls are standing. The damage aggregates S6OO or S7OO. Three gentlemen, a father and his two sons, residing ne *r Amerieus, were re cently married to three sisters, each cere mony having been performed by the same minister. Mr. Alex. Duncan was accidently shot by Mr. Robert Ruse last week while they were out hunting. The load of shot struck Mr. Duncan in the back. The wound is a painful one, but not danger ous. The remains of Rev. Z. 11. Gordon, the father of Gov. Gordon, who died in Goodwater, Ala., on Friday last, were conveyed to Chlumous, Ga., and interred there Sunday amid appropriate religious ceremonies. Talbotton is agitated about the liquor question, although the prohibitionists are the strongest faction. The coming elec tion for mayor and counpilmen in Jan uary, it is hoped, will put an end to dis sension, and vote the town “dry.” Atlanta folks are trying to secure the permarent location of the State fair in their city. Macon is holding on to it like grim death. Both cities will doubt less offer large Inducements to the Agri cultural Society for this purpose. The hotel block in Jonesboro was de stroyed by fire last week. The building, which was erected about 14 years ago, cost $20,000. The postoffice and about a half dozen stores were consumed and a heavy loss sustained. K. Fincher, w'ho farms near Rome, killed three hogs one day last week which weighed 911 pounds, an average of 304 pounds each. They were only twenty-one months and a half old, and were of the big Guinea and Berkshire breeds. George T. Jackson, the once wealthy business man and president of a large cotton factory, but who was convicted of embezzlement and sentenced to the peni tentiary, has been pardoned by Gov. Gordon, llis low physical condition is the reason given for the pardon. The Tlavne Literary Circle, of Ajpjgpsta, has started a movement to er.eer a monu ment in that city to Paul Hamilton Hayrie. James R. Randall, as chairman of the executive committee, has issued an appeal for subscriptions for the pur pose. It is designed to place the monu ment over his grave in Augusta. Dr. Thomas Charlton died at his resi dence in Savannah last week, after a lin gering illness. He was at one time as sistant surgeon in the United States navy, and afterwards surgeon in the Confederate navy. He was a physician of high order, a man of strict integrity, and public spirited citizen. A negro readied Columbus last week who imagined that he w r as rich. lie had in his possession SBOO which he vainly endeavored to spend. To-day he was ar rested for burglary in IJatehe-Chubbe. It seems that the SBOO which he secured was Confederate money, and it was this clue which led to his arrest. Mr. W. H Daniels, while riding near Culloden, met a Jersey bull belonging to a neighbor and endeavored to drive Dim home. The animal resented this interfer ence with his wishes and attacked horse and rider furiously, throwing both over his head. The horse was instantly killed, but Mr. Daniels fortunately escaped with only slight bruises. Mr. Thomas L. Bussey, engineer of the Marietta accommodation train, met with an accident last Saturday evening. While at the turn table his engine got oft' the track. He got down, and in walking alongside of the track he fell into the pit of the turn table, breaking one of his legs below the knee. He was carried home, where he is now doing well.—Jtfa rietta Journal. G. W. Glover, the citizens’ candidate for mayor of Americus, withdrew from the race last vceek. His followers de plored this act and censured him for his conduct at that stage of the campaign. He was a candidate nominated at a meet ing of citizens a few weeks ago, and his withdrawal, after accepting the nomina tion, was strongly spoken of, as the elec tion was only a few days oft', and hi3 suc cess was almost assured. He says it would have taken too much money to run the campaign. H- GOO!" Vot vas id mine baby vas trying to say, Ven I iroes to his crib at der preak of der day?
