T. Eih.tt, who made the welcoming ad
dress to President Cleveland here this
morning, u:e.t on t!io stand before the
ceremonies? were over. liie traiic mci-
r3
dent occurred jnt as President Cleveland
ciose.il his remarks in response to the
judge's welcome. Though the day was
not uncomfortably warm, the spot in the
centre of the square where the speaker's
stand had been enacted, was an exposed
one, and Judge Ellett, who stood for ag
me with his hat oil, as the president was
speaking sat dowa and was soon over
come by the heat.
Dr. liryant of the presidential party
took direction of affairs and remained
with the unfortunate gentleman while
the president was escorted to the cotton
and merchant's exchange. Judge Ellett
died just live minutes after the piisideut
left the reviewing stand.
Dr. Kennedy Jones came to the assist
ance of Dr. IJrvant and the two worked
with the prostrate form but without avail.
After leaving the stand, the pre sident
drove to the cotton exchange, where a
reception to t'ne public was held for an
hour. The president and Mrs. Cleveland
were :issjted by the postmaster-general
and Mrs. Vilas. From the exchange the
party was escorted to their train, and at
I o'clock started for Nashville.
The. fact of Judge Ellett's death was
kept from the president till -he reached
iJartlett, Tenn. The peesident was great
ly shocked at the news of the death which
was there conveyed to him, and expressed
the warmest sympathy for the bereaved
family. Dr. liryant says he found no
signs of life when he reached the unfor
tunate man's side, but said nothing until
he was relieved a few minutes later by
the local physicians, to whom he said
the judge was dead.
A Row With Anarchists.
P.v.as, Oct. 17. 2:13 a. m. A lively
little scrimmage affair occured in Belle

had been harangued by Louise Michel
was going on. Two sergeants de Villes
were slightly wounded by kicks in the
stomach. Three arrests were made and
Louise Michel ran off unpreceived. Two
or three faint cries of "Vive Boulanger!"
were heard and the only significance of
this bogarre is its evidence of Boulanger's
waning popularity.

the thieves. Haying ascertained that
they had not passed through either Ash

the dog again got the worst of the en

It has been accepted iu certain quarters in

legally proscribed to get llrst information are
fair, and are but incidents of the business and
the locality. A telegraph operator tlie other
day took a different view of this rule of Wall

that he was iu the offices of many other brok

"Lust night about 11 o'clock, your honor, I
was standing in the door of the morgue when
a man cama through Dunbar alley. He was
bare headed, his nose was bloadiug, and ho
was all covered with sawdust.
'Hello!' I aaid; 'you're iu pretty bad luck.

'Oh, nothmy he said; 'I've just been over

ranie inio the alley limping badly. One of

was bloody.

"I went inside, v-our konor, and presently I
lerceived a face peering through tho window
of the morgue from the ouLsi.ia. It was the
tcorst bunged up faco I ever saw. The forc
fiead was skinned and gory, tho eyes wcr
mere lines on mounds of discolored flesh, and
the lips were like two slices of cantaloupe.
All his front teeth were knocked out and
blood was dripping down ou his shirt front.

A baby entertained a 'Wednesday matineo
audience at a Broadway theatre. The play
had failed, and fewer than a hundred jier
sons were there to sec it. The erformers
had accepted tho verdict of rejection by tho
public, and were disposed to gag aud guy.
Tho one comedian in the company who had
been able to make any fun with his role was
inca;mcitated by illness, and had to be omitted
much of the time. It was a doleful occasion.
A farce with hardly any audk-nca to laugh at
it is exceeded ia gloom only by ono which
cannot provoke a smile on one out of a
hundred faces. No mental barometer could
have measured the depression of spirits in tha
auditorium, but it wsus. nevertheless, much
less there than on tho stage. When it YTO3 at
its worst an infant escaped from its possibly
slumbering mother, toddled lonesomoly down
tho aisle, steadied itself at the orchof t-ra rail,
got its first impression of Jhunder right from
tho blaring mouth of a big bugle, and fell
backward with a wail of horror. The roar of
laughter astounded the actor who happened
to be at the footlights. Nothing like that had
besn heard that week in the house. He
looked dowu and saw the causa of the merri
