A DASTARDLY MURDER.
Ktaitnton, Va., October 15.—Win. M.
Brown, a prominent citizen of this couuty,
was shot and killed in the rotunda of Un
fair grounds to-duv by Stuart Koerner. The
murder has caused intense though subdued
exei ten lent. The killing is regarded its
dastardly. There has been au old grudge
between the two men. Krocucr hud de
clared that he intended to kill Brown
on sight. They met in the crowded
rotunda at the fair grounds, Brown’s wife
having hold of one arm and their little
child the other bund. Scarcely a word
pussed when Koerner nlaced his nistol al
most against Brown's body and ured, the
hall eutcring two inches below the heart.
Koerner was at once arrested ami hurried
to jail. Brown was taken into the oiien air,
where lie died in fifteen minutes. The news
Hew like wildfire utid brought u large crowd,
lu twenty minutes feeling found vent iu
threats of lynching. The mayor lias
ordered military guards mound the jail
to-night. The jtosl-morlnn examination
will he held to-morrow. Brown was an en
ergetic and prosperous young farmer and
was generally liked. Koerner is a member
of a promincut and wealthy family. At
college some years ago ho killed a fellow-
student in a ouarrel. After a long trial he
was acquitted. His friends claim that his
mind is unbalanced, and insanity will be
the plea in his defense.
A School Girl Assaulted.
PiTTsnruo, October 15.—A special to the
Chronicle-Telegraph from Primrose, Pu.,
says: Last evening a number of girls were
returning from school at Oakdale, near lure,
when they were met by three boys, two
white and one colored, aged about 1H, who
attacked them with revolvers. All of the
gills escaped but Annie McKcnny, aged 11
years, who was seized by the young outlaws,
brutally assaulted and then left lying oil the
ground in an unconscious condition. She
was found by friends some hours later, und
a posse was at once organized to capture
the assailants. After a long search they
were run down and arrested here. The
condition of the girl is serious, and it is
feared that she will not recover. Great in
dignation prevails and lynching is freely
talked of. The boys arrested answer tile
description of three prisoners recently es
caped from the Morgan reformatory.
THE HOHKNZOLLERN VENUS.
Berlin Letter to New York Tribune.
The Princess of Meiningcii is the Venus
of the Hohcnzollern blood. To her the
Graces have been eminently partial. The
rosy cheeks and Oneco-Koiimn profile, soft
blue eye, clear complexion ami teeth
whose * setting llygieu might have
given, make easily plausible the
stories of her heart intrigues,
but give little clew to the unhappy mar
riage to which she was martyred. The
beautiful Princess fell unon her knees be
fore the sturdy grandfather, it is said, ami
begged and entreated the recall of the nup
tial cards; but he proved inexorable and let
the tears flow unchecked. She loved
another who was not a prince of the blood;
but the name llohenzellorn ruled the incli
nations of her heart and manacled her to
a man who was her peer only in descent.
Her bounty, alliance and position have
made her, In a manner, desperate, and she
wields her manifold charms indiscrimi
nately.
The papers of a last July morning were
filled with accounts of a sensational suicide
iu oue of the shady walks of the park. The
victim was a promising young ofliccr, scion
of one of the wealthiest and noblest fami
lies, and no cause was assigned for the
sudden ami fatal deed. A royal hand held
the key to the mystery. IIo had fallen in
love with the princess, and was encour
aged until the husband became jealous
of the lavish attentions. On the
evening preceding the fatal morning the
young lieutenant was in company with
the Prince and several comrades. They
“dined like the g«»ds’’ and when midnight
came Were ill a mood that little shadowed
the coming event. A night promenade sup
plemented their orgies. At one of the
smaller cafes an altercation arose and the
Prince slapiKil the officer in the face, glo
rying in the chance to resent his jealousy.
Law forbids a subject to challenge a Prince
of the blood, and the man was compelled
to “turn the other cheek” and let the insult
go unavenged. Smarting under this of
fense to his honor from the husband of the
woman ho loved, he left the gay Bacchanals
and hastened to an unfrequented path of
the gardens to commit the terrible crime.
MIt. TATES VOTE.
Clerk llransrll lias Ills Say as to Falsifying
Die Iteeurd* of Die House.
Atlanta, Ga., October 12,1885,—Messrs]
Ei*i rolls: lu your issue of this date is an
article headed “Falsifying the Records,'
which starts off with this statement: “Our
special Atlanta correspondent states that
after careful and thorough examination, it
was discovered that the vote of Mr. Tate,
chairman of the railroad committee, had
been affixed to the official tally sheet of tie
House hy the clerkut sometime subsequent
to the roll call.”
I desire, first of all, that no one shall be
held responsible for any act of mine, i
called the roll referred to*, nnd I pronounce
the statement absolutely and totally false,
both in what it states and what it implies.
A roll call is not completed uutil the names
of those voting “aye" and those voting “nay”
have Wen footed np, the figures put down
and the vote announced hy the Speaker.
The House of Representatives of Georgia
has constantly followed the practice of allow-
ng meuilssrs to record their votes or change
them from one side to the other ut any time
prior to the declaration of the result by the
Speaker, except in joint session of the Gen
eral Assembly. Mr. Tate did not answer
when his name was called, but liefore even
side had In-eu counted up he came up
to the desk and, in hearing of the Speaker
and others *rho were present, said: “Mr.
Clerk, put me down ‘no,’" and it was done,
aud, to the best of my recollection, two
votes were added to the “ayes" after Mr.
Tate's “no" was put down; und then the
sides were counted un, and when the count
was completed the tally-sheet was handl'd to
the Speaker and the result, “ayes HJ and
nays 7h," declared hy him, and so placed on
the journal, and has so stood ever since.
To the charges that you see fit to make in
the remainder of the article, I deem it un
necessary to reply, as the basis of them all,
the statement quoted, is absolutely untrue.
The foundation being rotten, the super
structure must go down with it. in so far
you insist upon pure methods und true
*11 iu the clerks office, nnd that the
House protect itself against the danger of
any manipulation of the votes of members
or of the records, I go with you and liclievo
that I aiu ns milch in earnest in desiring both
ns you or any one else in this State; and
and that it is on well, or better protected
now than it ever has been. Yours truly, 1

THE TOWN OF PULLMAN.
TUe People DUcontented-Tliry Claim a
Lack of Freedom,
New York Huu.
ItsooniB that even in the city of Pullman
tho workmen are threatening to strike
against a proposed reduction of their pav,
and complaining that the cost of living in
the ideal community is so great that they
can now barely make both ends meet.
Pullman is the town established by Mr.
George M. Pullman for the purpose of pro
viding model homes for those employed iu
the work of the car manufacturing compa
ny of which he is president aud to carryout
very definite theories of his as to how work
ing people ought to live, lie bought 4,(MM)
acres of low prairie land, ten miles from
Chicago, an average price of about $200 an
acre, and began iu 1881 to build the city of
Pullman, which contained a year later more
than 2,ooo inhabitants, aud now has a pop-
illation of 8.000 or more. As a business
j speculation the enterprise must have hceu
very successful, but as a social experiment
it has not worked so well,
Mr. Pullman started out to make a town
of perfect beauty aud order, and accord
ingly he or his company put up all the
houses, w ith a single architect to direct,
laid out all the streets and provided what
ever seemed necessary for the comfort of
the inhabitants. There are pretty separat
cottages for families, tasteful apartment
buildings, a theatre, an arcade, a common
stable, a school, a church and a parsonage
a market, gas aud water, public squares,
macadamized streets, a hotel, which con
tains the only Imr-rooui allowed, a fire de
partment—in fact, everything people ought
to want, in Mr. Pullman's opinion.
The streets are kept as clean as a newly
scoured pan, and shade trees have he
planted on either side of them. Not
broken window is to be seen in all Pull
man, nothing looks dilapidated, and even
the humblest suites of rooms in the fiat-
houses are provided with gas and water,
and the cottages contain the latest of mod
ern improvements. The streets are kept
sprinkled so that no dust may disturb the
fortune*# inhabitants, the lawns are always
well trimmed, only the most unexceptional
plays are allowed in the theatre, and among
the 0,000 volumes Mr. Pullman has given
to the library there is none that people
ought not to read. So universal is the pro
priety that new-coming workmen who con
tinue in Pullman their old habit of sitting
at evening on their piazzas or doorsteps in
their shirt sleeves are soon shamed into
giving up tin* practice, and nobody dares to
keep other than a beautifully clean and or
derly house.
But, of course, this perfection of order
and prosperity could not l>e maintained if
the people were left to themselves to live
as they pleased. Accordingly, tho Pullman
Company owns everything and directs
everything for them. They cannot own
their own botflies, for they might alter them
in accordance with a taste which did not
agree with Mr. Pullman's. They must not
have charge of the municipal government,
because they w'ould be sure to run it con
trary to Mr. Pullman's notions. If they
want a church of a particular
persuasion they cannot build it,
but must hire a hall of Mr.
Pullman, and unfortunately, tho rent
charged for the one church provided by him
is so largo that no denomination can afford
to take it, while the halls in which religious
services are conducted on Sunday afford ac
commodations for only one-eigiith of the
population. Of course, there is no newspa
per in such a town, for there is no freedom
of opinion no public opinion at nil. Mr.
Pullman himself furnishes the ouly opin
ions that can have free expression, and the
inhabitants must be on their guard, for all
the lenses are so drawn that an objectioim-
hle tenant can he turned out on ten
days notice without any assigned reason.
Yet the people of Pullman are not happy,
and grumble at their situation even more
than the inhabitants of towns not model
are accustomed to do. They say that all
this perfection of order costs them too
much iu money, nnd imposes upon tle ni
an intolerable constraint. They want to
sit in their shirt sleeves when they lire so
minded, and oven praise of the neatness
nnd propriety of their home does not com
pensato them for the loss of the opportuni
ty to be dirty if they please. They might
manage it badly in Mr. Pullman’s opin
ion, but, all the same, they want
t» run tho municipal government
themselves, according to the or
dinary Amerienn fashion. They secretly re
bel because the Pullmau continues
its watch and authority over them
even after work hours. They declare that
they are hound hand and foot by a philan
thropic monopoly. At any rate, they de
mand that they shall he well paid for sub
mitting to Mr. Pullman's plan for making
th m comfortable and happy, instead of
getting happiness in th< ir own way. For
his theory of n model community is first-
rate, except that it takes no account of hu
man nature. If people did not want to reg
ulate their own lives and form their owa
opinions, tho city of Pullman would he

enteiprise ami a social experiment.

One of the many frivolous cam-* constantly being

before the grand Jury this weak.
It seems that some time last July a negro aa black
as the hinges of Tophetcame to Macon and n ported
at tin- Unite.! States Court building that he had a
big case of distilling in Gum Swamp, lu the vicinity
of Mctlae. Thu deputies pricked up tlo-ir cars, and
it was not long before Commissioner Erwin issued
warrants for the am-st of the Illicit distillers, in
ternal Revenue jUollector Cabatiis* had not long
after considerable time spent in hunting up
Teyauces, aud luoming found them wandering
about in the swamp. The negro h-.| them over
mile* and miles of ground, and flually acknowl-
, ... happy frame of mind.
There they were lost in the swamp, having tramis-d
since midnight, with no breakfast, nor
auy prospect of getting any. Fiually Mar-

held a reception.
From dark uutil midnight, feasting and high
revelry went on amid the wa*htulH« and fiat-irons,
while the Chinese gods pinned to the walls of the
laundry looked down upon th*- scene grinning aud
winking their eyes with delight.
Among the distingui-hi-d guests present were Gus
Rogers, tho negro banjulst, two negro harmonica
idayi-rs from Atlanta, ami a score or more of siuull
boy*. Major-General July, and Lee, the deaf and
dumb negro cripple, occupied seats on beer kegs,
just outside tile d.Mir.
Sam Lee and his cousins o|s>ued the ceremonies
of the evening by vigorously ironing a huge pile of
cuffs and collars, while, at the same time, tlii-y
ehauted that good old Chinese s..ug, entitled.
••Wanuky Witunky Whatlkity Rang."
The society r«-j>orter of the Tklf.oiupu, who was
an honored guest, caught one verse of the song,
which is herewith published for the edifleatiou aud
delight of the Tklkouai-h'k readers:
“Waunky waunky whauklty bang,
Yi ki si ki vvizzie wazzle dang.
Pinky doo pinky doo - ink tank imp.
Hip loppy skip loppy snap."
The jiathetic wonts of the song moved Major-
General July to tears, ami caused Lee to fall off ..f
his beer keg. The society reporter was paralyzed.
The song concluded. Oils Rogers, the ban joist, sat
