Dr. W. J. Barlow and family were
aroused by the screams of (heir

was too late to save anything, and

Yesterday evening, about five
o’clock, Jesse New died, after
short illness. He leaves a wife,
but no children to mourn bis loss.
Jesse was a peculiar man in. many
respects, but was an honest and
good hearted one. His numerous
fishing stories have made him- lo
cally iamous, and many are the
untutored young men whom Jesse
taught the art piscatorial. Peace
be to bis ashes, snd may he go to

celebrated Sharon divorce salt has
body seemed, in a good hnmer, and
thankfol that they were living to
see the good old day come ronod
again. A fine tnrkey dinner at the
residence of Mrs. J; A. Kenneday,
knocked the. wife-edge' off (be writ
er’s "large appetite,” and made him
feel glad be bad been born; yes, and
made blm willing'to be'"born

The^Christmastree'attimMetho-

were distributed to the children,
and many of the grown-up people
received very handsome presents-
Col.J. G. Parks, his mother, wife
and. ohildren have all returned to
the city and.are enjoying Christ
mas at home. Also the Colonel’s
brother, Lloyd B. Parks, is on
visit s to bis sweetheart, and. to
gether they made the atmosphere
red and resonant last night with
fireworks. Think some of the fire-
eraekeis went off half-eooked, as
they sounded more like stolen
kisses than Christmas gnns.

Nnw Orleans, Deo. 2T—To-dsy's
Picayune, in a double-leaded edi
torial leader, speaking of the Ameri
ean policy and the Nicaraguan
treaty, says: “The conntry is ripe
for an entirely hew departure, one
that is worthy our great nation and
one that will stamp itself upon the
whole history of North America.
We must adopt the policy At ac
quisition of territorial aggrandise
ment to the southward. It need
not necessarily be accomplished b;
armed invasion or inaugurated 1
blood. The Nicaraguan treaty la
the opening wedge. Let n* drive
that home, and, by invetting $100,-
000,000 In a ship oansUhere, secure
the country. American enterprise
will soon annex the whole of Cen
tral America from that base line.”
It concludes: "Sectional discord
« happily ceased, and the South
la primarily and deeply interested
in the march of empire southward,
and her statesman, by at once
championing a bold and brilliant
polioy in that dlreotion, will open
a new era for the entire oonntry
and map out a safe and short road
to prosperity and continued nation
al growth, insure tranquillity at
borne and add to the glory of onr
great repnblio.”
They have a peculiar way of dis
posing of mad dogs in Sonth Car
olina. A few days ago an animal
in Mecklenburg county was at
tacked by hydrophobia and bit
several other dogs, bogs and aheep.
All these animals were killed, ex
cept a valuable setter belonging to
Mr. MoOorkle. This gentleman
refined to slay hirpet, and pre
vented "a mad dog committee”
that bad been organised foam as-
waiting it by shotgun persuasion.
Thereupon the committee appealed
to the law, and the oaee came np
before ’Santre Maxwell After ten
witnesses were examined MeCorue
compromised the cate by agreeing
to send the dog ontaide the State.

tiff, Miss Sarah Althea Hill, claim
ing to he the wife of ex-Senator
Sharou, was for a divorce and di
vision of the common property.
Judge Sullivan's decision is very
comprehensive, containing 36,000
words. After reviewing the testi
mony be concludes by declaring'
that under the laws of California
the plaintiff is the legal wife of
8baron, and as sueb, on the ground
of williul desertion, is entitled to a
divorce and a division of the com-
mob property. The lattor is es
timated to' be wbrth $10,000,000.
The verdict is a great surprise to
the public, it having been generally
supposed, from the contradictory
character of the testimoney, that
the plaintiff would have been non
suited.' It is believed that Mr.
Sharon will appeal.
W. H. L. Barnes, the leading
counsel for ex-Senator Sharon-
saysof Judge Sullivan’s decision.
' It is an entire surprise to the
profession, both as to the law
and facts. The judgment, if it
stands, will not be a serious pe
cuniary injury to Mr. Sh&ron. I
don’t think be bas $10,000 worth of
property which conld be made
subject to the deoision. Mr. Sharon
is greatly annoyed by the present
deoision, but has not the slightest
idea of sabmistion, aad, of course,
will appeal, and we are confident of
reversing the deoision. The suit
brought by Mr. Sharon in the Uni-
ted States Circuit Court to have
the marraige contract declared in
valid, will be prosecuted.”
The plaintiff’s counsel will make
application for counsel fees and
$6,000 per month alimony for 14
months, or since the beginning of
the case.

A Ball From the Clouds.
Washington, Deo. 26.—People
interested in base ball have been
talking for several days of a wager,
said to have been made by Super
intendent McLangblinofthe Wash
ington Monnmont,tbat Paul Hines,
the well known fielder, recently
with the Providence nine, could
not catch a base ball thrown from
one of the windows at the top of the
monument. MeLaughlin said to
day that he had made no such
wager, but that be was perfectly
willing to do so. He said that he
did not believe Hines, or anybody
else, could catoh a bail thrown from
the top of the monument He
wonld probably have no difficulty
in stopping it, for the engineers of
ofthemon ament calculates roughly
that the bail would descend in
about five and a half seconds, with
a speed at the bottom equal to
about 180 feet per second. The
ball would not be going more ra
pidly than many that are easily
caught on the ball field. The
trouble would lie in the combined
difficulties of seeing the ball (and
determining its probable position
at the ground. It is probable that
the monument will be ntillaed by
some of the scientific bureaus of
the government foi experiments in
velocity.
