She then told them she had prayed last summer as her last wish cn earth to see her children and grandchildren once more, and she believed this was the fulfillment of her prayer. On Sunday the people of the neighborhood swarmed to Mrs. Meyer’s house, and they were scon convinced of the truth of the mira- cle. Before the day had closed, however, she exclaimed: “This is the last Sunday that I shall ever have the use of my eye- sight.” When the old lady awakened on Monday morning she found that her sense of vision was again gone. Mrs. Meyer and her husband live ina quaint old farm house built about eighty years ago, situated on the Scuderton turnpike. They have lived together in the old structure nearly fifty years.

A party of twenty or thirty hunters arrived there from Nashville, Tenn., on Monday last, prepared with fine guns, dogs, tents, etc., intending to remain in that section some weeks. Tuesday, the party divided into two squads, and six or seven started for New Madrid in skiffs. The smaller skiff, containing three men, one be- ing ® young physician from Nash- ville, named Schneider or Snyder, attempted Sto make a landing at Slough Landing, two miles below Hickman.

I A gentleman from Sedalia informs us that “One-arm” Walker, a dusky individual of that city, has left there with a petition a yard long on an errand to Harrison for the Sedaia postoffice.

Two moreshots were fired into his body and then the assassin or assassins ran up and beat his head into a jelly, breaking a gun from the stock over his head. To- day George Tally went to Clarks- ville, twenty-two miles distant from the scene of the murder, and gave himself up, saying that he was the murderer and that he killed Brake because the latter had seduced his 17-year-old daughter.

Up to this time General Harrison had not apparently been aware cf he presence of the ladies, but in an nstant he wason his feet and in the anguage of Mrs. Bevis “sprang” to her side and asked her in imperious tones if she had taken note of what he had said. whereupon he deliberately toek the note-book from and declared his intention of keep- ing it. contained many things valuable to her which in no way touched him. Turning over the book he found the leaves on which Mrs. written and jerked them from the cover and returned the remains. The lady explained that she had no intention of offending and was only doing her duty to the papers she represented. Harrison replied: He was told “yes,” Mrs. Bevis’ hand The lady told him the book Bevis had “Your common sense should teach you better than to come into my house and make notes of me and my family surroundings. It is an in- sult I will not allow.” He was told there was no inten- tion of insulting him and that she had come on ahead to obtain an in- terview. “You or no other reporters can do that,” was the rejoinder. She was then invited to another room with the ladies and the Gener- al treated pleasantly there. Mrs. Bevis is a cultured lady who goes in the best society.
