KLLLKD IN SUNDAY SCHOOL
MISS CONNELLY SIIOOI’S HEK TItAUU
unit.
f/reat excitement prevailed all
day Sunday aud yesterdiy over
the tragedy which- occurred near
Midway, and cue which never is
to bo forgotten by tLose who at
tended Sunday School at Hunter’s
Chapel that day. 'I he place se
lected by Miss Connelly fur the
pnuishment of the traducer of her
good name, seems to have been'a
most peculiar one. Sunday moru
mg whilst the services of the Sun
day School were being conducted
Miss Emma Connelly walked di
rectly up the aisle *nd quietly seat
eel herself behind John A. Stt tidi
ly, coolly pulled her pis/ol and
shot him in the Aead, I/e tried
to get his pistol out- Retiring to
he door he fell, and died almost
instantly. Miss Connelly snap
ped her pistol twice, but it failed
to tire. When the pistol was
wrenched from her had she told
the gentlemen to be careful with
the pistol, it was cocked. She
immediately walked over to J. B.
Hunter, the Tiial Justice, and
said;
“I am your prisoner—l know
what I have done,’
Miss Connelly did not seem iD
the least excited Trial Justice
Hunter released Miss Connelly oh
her own recognizance, to go to
Barnwell aud give herself up.—
The cause of the shooting is of
course differently told, but a ma
jority of the people are in sympa
thy with the woman who look tho
life of the man whom she says vil
ified her good name.
Quite a number were at the de
pot as the morning train stopped
at Midway to see the fair slayer
leave for Barnwell, where she has
gone to give herself op to-lhe
county authorities to await atrial.
Miss Connelly was accompanied
by her attorney, Mi. William , of
the film of Skinner & Williams,
hei father, her brother, and sev
eral friends (Mr. Ccnnelly, her
brother, is iu charge of the Cen
tral He tel bar here), and the re
porter, not wishing to be too
bold, obtained an Interview with
Miss Connelly through her broth
er.
Miss Connelly is a well formed
youi g lady of medium height,
with brown eyes deep set, high;
cheek bones and sweat, interest
ing face, and one to see her seated
by her futher would not believe
that it bad been but Iwelve hours
since she had takeu the lite of the
man whom she thought had in
juted her.
The reporter, on taking his
seat by Miss Connelly, said: “I
do not wish to be impertinent, but
do you object to talking en the
subject of yisterday’s iraoedy.’
‘ 1 do not,” she quietly replied.
“I have nothing to regret about it.
Hhu bed simply punished and tnju
ry that a cowardly man had placed
on her. hike spoke well of Mr
Steodley, with wuom, she said
she had been on the best of terms,
The two families are also on inti
mate lerms. Miss Couudly said :
“I killed him because l felt h my
duty, aud 1 did not want to put
lather or biother in the position I
am now in. My name, and that s
all a woman bus, has been viliitted
and I have wiped out the stain
i with the blood of my traducer,’’ —

FEN AND IJAPER.l J APER.
H»nd-w riling is as much an ex
pression of diameter as dress or
sp<ecb,
Tbe cut, the color, and the ar
rangement of /he dress indicates
the position, taste, and inclination
of the wearer: the tono of voice,
the pronunciation, aud the thought
oxpiessed in speech is a complete
index to the individual who bolds
your attention, and Dot less cer->
t.iirdy does the color of ink used,
ti e shape and quality of paper,
and tho fashioning of /he charac
ters in a written communication
tell the story of the personality of
the iuditcr.
To be sure, we are governed or
fashioned in tach by certain arbi
trary ruleb peculiar to the lane
and place, but it iv in the adapta
tion of ibe.se mandates that iho in
dividual crops out.
Oar Own Section—We Labor For It .v Advancement. 4
Ac one time no dress was com
plete without a trail, and- it was
iu its management that a woman’s
grace or awkwaidness was appa
rent.
It is the individual surviving
under l.emileau duUouttnH that
led a certain yOtuig than to l>e
spoken of lately as “a sensible, re
spectable dude.’
The soft tones and smooth,
gratr matical sentences of educa
ted pei sons are noticeable even
when marred by the drawling
tones aesthetic culture gives, or
the twang Iho Yankee atmosphere
impart 8.
Thus does an uuoOtrusivs color
of tuk, heavy, plain, paper, aud
neatness of the sheet, indicate the
lady or gentleman, notwithstand
ing the style of handwriting in
vogue, ! .i. j
Fifty years ago, the vpry deli
cate, very regular, very slanting
characters of the iUlian style of j
hriulwiiting was in use; t' is,
while /acting in character, pos
sessed the one recommendation of i
legibility.
Then came in the English style
very square, very imposing, state
ly us Britannia kerse'f, but who!
ly illegible.
At this lime wo have in use,
generally a happy comoinatiou of
both, aud perhap- at no former
timo bus more importance been at
lacked to letter writing than at
present.
Business men consider it a most
essential dignity to maintain, and
their handsomely engraved letter
heads and carefully considered in
dications of their business stand
ing.
It was formerly believed that
illegibility and haste indicated en
terprise and promptness; but
while they do not entirely aban
don moncy-saviug and time sav
ing, they now consider beauty
saving a* well.
In letter writing it is demon
strated that it is practicable to
combine usefulness and legibii
tty-
Ladies of leisure cau have no
excuse lor such an omission,
which in them would be at once
unladv'ike and discourteous.
They are aided in this work by
the perfect pens, perfect paper,
and perfect ink ox the day.
Steel pens ar« most generally
used in preference to t/ie most ox
pensive gold one, at one time con
sidered indispensable.
The varie'y and txce/leuco of
paper rs untiunted for ladies’ use,
but the heavy cream laid, model
ate sized sheet, unruled, is consul
ered in most elegant taste.
The use of sealing wax, recent ly
inUottuced, met with a hearty re
centlj introduced, met with a
hearty reception at first, but late
ly we see but little of its use.
HE ANSWERED HER ADVER.
TISEMENT.
A San Francisco man has a pass
ion for answering interesting ad
vertisements, and last week be
chanced on one thut promised lots
of joy.
“A lady, young and refined, who
is very uuliapy in her home, would
like lo meet an honorable gcntlt
mun who wonid assist her in some
sort of profitable business. Ad

Ho addressed a letter to t.h e
young, refined aud unhappy “L,’
and suggested a meeting a meet
ing in tbe Palace reception room
carefully signing an assumed name
which sounded like that of an \hon
orable gentfemau.’ At the stated
uour ue was on hand, aud. as fort
une soiuetunes favors the brave’
the room was empty:
Five minutes later tbe glass
door swung bnok to admit a slen

and veileJ. Instinct whispered
that this was “L ” He approached
and gently lifted the veil. A
\ shriek came out from under, and
he experienced a sudden depress

was first to recover. Ho said :
“I’ll call a couple for you and
you get into it aud go siruiglit
home, and when you’re theie, get
down on your knees and thank
Heaven that you’ve a good hns
baud that can look out f. r you
when you are trying to make a

Then lie tore out to the bar
and took two of ibica Biruigbts,
aud lhauked Heaven himself for
