MDEDEEED HIS MOTHER
An ElevenTearOld Colored Boy Cut His
Mothers Head Ofi with an Axe He Claims
She Made Him Do It
Somerville Tenn March 23 A
singularly atrocious murder was com-
mitted here this morning the victim be-
ing Mrs Sallie Hobson colored and
the murderer her elevenyearold boy
Mrs Hobson was a servant in the
tamily of an Episcopal minister
and lived with her four children in a
small bouse in the rear of the parsonage
This morning her husband who has been
in the country at work called at the
house in company with another negro
and aftpr a short stay started out for a
walk Returning half an hour later
a terrible sight met his eyes
On one side or the door lay
the decapitated remains of his wife
and several feet away her head A stick
of wood on which her neck had been
placed when the cutting was being done
shows three distinct cuts of an as The
boy was found playing with the other
children his clothing saturated with
blood He at once claimed that
the blood came from a chioken which he
had killed bnt at the coroners inquest
admitted that he had committed the
crime He said his mother laid her head
down on the block and told him if he
did not qut her head off she would kill
him The boys story is not believed
and he was placed in jail pending fur-
ther investigation

London March 23 The East End
tailors held an enormous mass meeting
today at which their wretched condi-
tion was mournfully discussed A more
hopeless set of men perhaps never ex-
isted All spirit is crushed out of them
by the remorseless sweating system
into the miseries o which they have fal-
len Even the wild eloquence of social-
ist Lyons who has devoted much time to
an attempt to organize and energize
these poor creatures failed to arouse to
any confidence in their own powers of
selfsalvation or any hope of relief ex-
cept from what seems to them the all
powerful arm of the governing class
Accordinely the outcome of the meeting
was the adoption of a resolution to
PETITION THE QUEEN FOP HELP
and also to send an appeal to the Inter-
national Labor conference at Berlin to
consider their case and if possible to
take some action in their behalf The
petition sets forth in vivid and pathetic
terms the condition of tho tailors who
since the days when Kingsley selected
thorn for portrayal in Alton Locke1
as types of industrial misery which led
to the chartist uprising have been if
possible growiujr more wretched until
now their life is merely a short and bitter
strugsrle with starvation They pray tho
queen to interfere and save their fami-
lies who are dying of consumption and
inanition in their filthy dens But tho
queen will hardly be able to do anything
for these unfortunate subjects of hers
as she has but recently received the re-
port of a royal commission on the sub
ject which fails to solve the perplexing
problem

Five thousand Italians have embarked

The tide of emigration is not due to any
illusions as to Americas being an Eldo

derstood now than formerly but the
condition of the Italian peasantry is sim-
ply unbearable and emigrants act on tho

on that floor were impassable when
the Rev Dr MoPherson delivered the
opening prayer At this time at the
foot of the stairs hundreds crowded the

this distance No funeral held in Chi-
cago ever brought together a larger
number of sorrowers A quartette from
the Second Presbyterian church ohoir
sang at the close of the prayer and wore
followed by Dr Thomas who quoted the
Ninetieth Psalm and a chapter from Job
in tho course of his brief tut comforting
remarks
Professor Swing then read a most elo-
quent tribute to the dead

spoke eloquently and at length and
again offered prayer Dr Clinton Locke

mencement of the services had remained
with her sister and friends in an adjoin-
ing room but had been present during

WASHINGTON NOTES
STONEWALL JACKSOX S WIDOW SEEKS
A TENSION
Special to the Gazette
Washington March 23 The appli-
cation of Mrs Thomas J Jackson for a
pension for the services of her late hus-
band Gen Stonewall Jackfon in
the war with Mexico has been received
in the pension office It was forwarded
from the office of D G Max-
well United States commissioner
at Charlotte N C The affidavit
of Gen lames Lougstrect certifying to
the service of Gen Jackson during tho
Mexican war accompanies it They
wore comrades In that struggle as well
as in the war of the rebellion There is
also an affidavit of Dr Joseph Graham
who was present at her marriage on
July 15 1837 with Gen Jackson
Mrs Jacksons maiden name was
Mary Ann Morrison nnd she was
a niece or W A Graham
who was senator from North Carolina in
1843 and secretary ot tho navy under the
Fillmore administration Your roporter
called on Commissioner Raum today
and asked whether Mrs Jaoksous appli-
cation for a pension would be favorably
considered He replied I have not
taken it up yet but I can see no reason
why it should not be granted Section
471G Revised Statutes says No
money on account of pensions shall
be cranted to any person or to the
widows children or heirs of any de-
ceased person who in any manner volun-
tarily eugasred in or aided or abetted
the late rebellion against the authority of
the United States But section 5 of tho
act granting pensions to the soldiers and
sailors of the Mexican war approved
January 29 1887 says that section 471G
of the Revised Statutes is hereby re
pealed so far as the same relates to this
act or to pensioners under this act This
latter clause gives Mrs Jaokson a clear
title to her pension in my opinion

ThaEvening Discourse in Full Gods Helpful
Sympathetic ami Panlonng Love
Sam Jones necdotes and
Witty Sayings
Not less than 14000 people heard Sam
Jones proach yesterdavand these figures
do not include the largo numbers of peo-
ple who were unable to get within reach
of his voiceand who went away from the
tabernacle to await a more opportune
tiino to hear the gospel preached by the
eloquent stranger Morning noon and
afternoon the tent was crowded to over-
flowing All the benches were tilled
persons standing up filled the aisles and
crowds clustered about the entrances
At the evening service some folks came
as oarly as G oclock in order to pre-
empt the front seats From then untt
S the people swarmed in that neighbor-
hood All available space outside the
tent was occupied by tho carriages ot
those who drove to the preaching and
when the service was over a couple of
dozen street cars awaiting outside were
jammed and packed before any diminu-
tion of the crowd was observable
Professor Excell lead iu tho singiiig
as usual and the harmony of some on0
trained voices raised in the utterance of
the sacred hymns was such as is seldom
heard in these parts Proiesaor Excell
sang a couple of solos during the day
with fine effect
At night preliminary to tho regular
service the choir rendered As thy
days thy death shall be and Look
and live
Rev J Morgan Wells came to the
front He said lie had a little subject to
whioh he wished the audience to direct
its attention It was the subject of
money Thojpeople smiled which he took
as a good omen The expenses of the
meeting so far he said had been about
S10Q0 and he wanted to raise that
amount right now The reverend gen-
tleman assumed his most fetching tona
and manner and pleaded with the peo-
ple to come to time He asked for con-
tributions of S10 each but only a few
scattering gentlemen and ladies re-
sponded to the appeal During this
time Mr Jones came along and taking
his chair on the platform watohed the
slow process After awhile he seemed
to get tired and rising to his feet said
You people here are harder to get
at than most folks But here we have
this debt Theytell me they want 51500
And what are you going to do about it
There is only one way to get out of it
and that Is like the old nitrger woman
said She was accosted one day by a white
man who knew her and who said
Aunt Sarah where is Uncle Mose
your husband He promised me a couple
of weeks ago that he would come around
and do some work for us but I havent
seen him since Its time he was show-
ing up
upIs
Is dat so boss Well now youll
have to oxouso Mose dis time Hes
dead
Brother Wells will have to excuse
Fort Worth for the same reason I
reckon She u dead religiously Now
the brethren say tho preparations for
these meetings cost 1200 and we are
going to make you pay it it we have
to get it out of you a nickel at a time I
dont like that way of doing and Id
rather chip in myself than to go at it in
that way I would rather be one of ten
to pay down 150 a piece to help the
thine out and if thero are nine others to
come I will head the procession I would
rather do that than wait at every meeting
for the hat to be shoved under your noses
to got a nickel every time We will have
to seine it out of you If you can stand
it I can We will have to go on the
seine principle I guess We will pro-
ceed with tho seine If you want to do ic
that way let the show soon
The show went on The result was not
announced
When the hat had been passed around
Professor Excell rendered a solo Are
You Ready in fine style
Then Mr Jones spoke His text was
For God so loved the world that He
gave His only begotten Son that whoso-
ever believeth upon Him may not perish
but have everlasting life
Tonight ho said wo shall
speak of our obligation to God in return
for the great love which God has given
us and of which he has given us every
manifestation There are two classes of
people Those who love God and they
are the ones who know God and those
who dont love God and they are tho
ones who never have known God
God must be loved if He bo known for
He is the most lovable being that mortal
eyes ever looked upon I have only to
look upon God and upon what that God
has done for mo and for my loved ones
in order to call out every sentiment of
gratitude in my nature and make me
fall down in adoring wonder at
His leet This is true If we
know Him we must love Him I have
won the love of my dog by the simple
power of kindness to him so that when I
go home after a long absence and walk
to the gate my dog is the first one to
run out to greet me and he jumps up aa
if to kis3 me and he seems over-
joyed at my return I can
soarcely get to the house for him
and he seems to say lam so glad you
are back And where have you been all
this long time And now if you want to-
go bunting tomorrow I will be on hand
Just count on me I will be there
And he just prances around and talks
just like a dog can talk And I say to
him What is it that makes you
love mo so and he answers Becausa
you are good to me You never struck
me a lick in your life and when you have
gone away you have told the children to
be good to me when you are gone I
have won him by human kindness Same
with my horsei Next to a good woman
