A l'Hillil- Wife the t'aiiHe of the Murder. Cm ri.otti:, N. C, Jan. 10. One of the bloodiest duels ever fought with knives took place yesterday afternoon eight miles from Mor ginto'A ii. For some time past Joe Harris, a young man of some promise, suspected John Aiken of being t K intimate with his wife. I larris, seeing that Aiken did not Iwed his warning given him, grew despeiate and swore that he would kill Aiken on sig' t. Yisterday atternooii they met in a public road near Morgmtown. Harris at ouw informed Aiken that one or the other must. lie ; that he had p it up with his conduct as long as he could. Aiken tried to explain that he had done nothing to be. ashamed of, and repotted that the criminal intimacy was nothing but gossip. Harris then told Aiken to prepare himself. Iledrewfrom his pocket a long-blad-.-d knife and made a desperate plunge at Aiken, but Aiken was on his guard, and before Harris could make a second ell'ort Aiken thrust his kuile up io the handle in Harris' heart. The all'air has caused an unusual amount of excitement, fnd a search party has gone out to cap ture Aiken. TIIK SII.VKK BILL. It KlioioU Kelieve It Will Taxi the limine and liecome a Law. Washington. Jan. 10. The Star says from the general tenor o'" c jnveisation among the silver ma jority in the senate, it was appar ent that they regarded their victory entirely due to the force of the irresistible popular demand which thev believe will make. itself felt in a similar manner in the hoii'-e and ultimately in the executive mansion. More cam ima and conservative friend of silver are inclined to think that the action ef the senate will prove to have been a fortunate thing lor the country. It may serve to san -ly the strong craving of the West and South for financial re lief, and thus prevent a recourse to more extieme measures in the way of sub-treasury schemes of fiat money which are mediated so seriou-ly by the Farmers' Alliance and rural agitators in the interior of the couirrv. The defeated party takes the matter calm'v. but rather gloomily. TIIE INDIANS. lliey Invite the Soldiers Feast of Boiled Dor. to a HUT TUKV KKI.T TIIKIK ;l XS Ueoaral Mile?
