Sheriff Barnes waa granted Irtmlsttton to the jail and had a general conversation with the prisoners. There waa much expectant Interest attached to Sheriff Plummer' visit.

It waa generally believed that he tiad come here to talk with the two condemned man concerning tha Bnel arrangements for the execuMon. and that he would learn from them whether they desired to make a farewell address from tha scaffold, and if so. how much time would probably ba consumed In tha address tnd tha rellirtoue acrvlce that ia to ba held ear tha scaffold. Sheriff riummer will also allow Jackaon and Walllna each to name minister of the Ooanet to be present, and It waa thought that thla matter would also ba settled to-day. The Sheriff, however, laid that he had not coma out on business, xeapt to arrive at an understanding with' lailer H'imer regarding the removal of the eriaonera to Newport for execution.

Thla arrangerneriwas effected. Tha Sher-' lit will notify Jailer Wanner -4 hour before tha removal of tha man.

KO CONFESSION. SATS ratal. "There will be.no confession from either Jackaoa or Waning," waa the opinion expressed by Detective Crlm here yesterday and he backed up thla opinion by saying: "In all my experience with criminals I have never known one to make any confession while there was a doubt as to his g-ullt in the minds of bis friends or rata-tlaes. Neither Mrs. Jackaon nor Mrs.

A. t-ea from tba Ooapaf of HI. John 111, "lod bo loved the world that He gave Ilia anly begotten Hon, that whoeoever balleT-etn in Hlro should not perish, but have everlasting life." Among other thlnga Rev. te Bald: Ood'alove to man Is aa old as iod Hlm-aelf. haa always loved.

Uova ta of a very old origin. Ood's lova haa followed man wherever he has gone. This lova touches every part of our Uvea, lxva haa yielded a anight Influeore In the world. Kvery man Is aonualnted with lova. There la not a soul but what la either loved or lives.

Wa may be reckoned aa outcaata by the world and yet there ara thoaa wbo will continue to lova us aa i'Hig as life lasts and than cherish sweet memories when we sra gone. Human lova la easily destroyed, and yet there are aome ties that seemingly are aktn to tod Himself. The love that friend ba for friend Is vary sweet, but stronger la that of brother for brother or slater for alacer. but I look not here for tha greatest lova and then there la the love that father tias for his son. but this Is not tha strongest.

irester than ail theaa Is the love of mother, climbing higher than any love that 1 have mentioned, od ba thanked for a mother's love. Then there la tha lova that one companion haa for another side by side of mother's love, but my friends, there is another that haa a greater love than ail hese put together. Tha greatest lova in all I he world Is tha lova of Ood. No other love waa ever ao broad, so blgb or long as God's love. Tha greatest gift "His only begotten eon." Kvery thing connected -th thla leased old passage la gnat.

You paver had euch another gilt presatvted to you. You never can have, yuu never will have. Thla gift Is tha fairest among tha fair. The accepting or the rejecting of this gift settles the soul's destiny for time and eternity. Thla gift came unexpectedly and undeserv ingly, uon was under no obligation to give Ills Hon to Jla for tha world.

Tha proposition from an Indiana phonograph exhibitor for Jackaon and Walling to make remarks to ba recorded on a cylinder for rne public waa answered vester- day. Walling wrote to the exhibitor, atatlnr that they would make anr remarks that might ba desired and would sing a duet for The proposition to the prfsonera was the payment of cash or the signing of a con tract ror the payment of a rovaltv to any person that they might destrnate. Mlaa Thompson and Mlaa Storey, two young women who have paid Jackaon many attentions since his arrest, arrived in Alex andria at dusk last driving a hand some trotter to a light buggy.

Sheriff Plummer was at Alexandria yea terday. and In conversation with the two men who are to be executed on Saturday nest asked If there was anything especial that be could do in their behalf.

Walling said to him; 'Well. Sheriff, you know that George H. Jackson's testimony was a tissue of lies.

The preacher said 'The revival being held ta Music Hail Is all excitement followed by exhaustion. Character la attained by growth. Here ts where revivals are at fault. A forced growth is engendered, and a hot-house plant is the resolt. unable to survive in the natural atmosphere of the world.

WHAT RCVIVAia DO. "It takes a church which baa just passed through an exciting revival about half a year to regain it normal status and to do the work required of It. In the mean time it baa gone back to where It waa in strength and power, and feels the need of another- revival, from wblch, through a season of lethargy. It wlU recuperate sufficiently to hold another revival, and so on, ad Infinitum.

"How much better la the ceaseless. steady growth. Noiselessly and Impercepti bly soul should climb higher and higher. "There la no doubt but what, thla city needa a stirring up. Kvery cRy does.

We welcome gladly Mr. Moody or any ona else who can quicken spiritual life In the Queen City. Perhaps bo does not reach tha class of people who most need htm. but for all that wa feel that good will be the Immediate result of bis revival; but aa to the question of the permanency of that result we are not ao sure. One thing Is certain.

Mr. Moody will not quicken tha Intellectual life of the city. The (-rudeness of some of his Meaa are astounding. Hare are a few of them: The world la Hteraily to be port fled by waters, all evil to be destroyed, and then to be Inhabited by the redeemed. We trust the fire will be more successful than the water, for, according to Mr.

Moody, we inherited our atn from-Adam, even if tha world haa been flooded. He takea the Bible, lust aa It is. aa infallible, speaks of the evil of the wrne cups and urgee total abstinence, and yet Paul wrote to his young convert, Timothy "fee a little wine for thy stomach The explanation of the whaia swallowing Jonab is cer tainly original.

Do I banish God? Not at alL I put Him In humanity, not outside. Man Is not a machine, but rather a plant to grow.

City Dear Sir- received two days ago a circular addressed to me aa a candidate for re-election to the Board of Education, con. talcing the following: Ara you in favor of furnishing- text books free to the public schools of this city, tn accordance with the present school book law? 2. If elected a member of tbe Board of Ed ucation, win you exert your influence and use your best efforts to accomplish this purpose? so you pledge yourself. If elected, to vote for such appropriation or appropria tions aa shall be found necessary for the aa tsbliahment of the free text book system for tha school year 1807-98? Tba circular goes further on to state that "you ara Instructed to notify each candi date for election to tbe Board of Education that If satisfactory answers to thi above questions are received, the Free School Book Conference pledges hlra its hearty support, regardless of party politics. and that failure to answer theee questions by March 17.

or any noncommittal anawer. wm be construed aa opposition to the free school book system. I have given tho subject careful consider, ation. and. without stopping to Inquire what would become of your pledge of support In case, which ia likely to occur, both candi dates in a ward ahould return satisfactory answers, respectfully beg leave to reply for myseii.

I have never vat. at least fn cases of anv Importance, pledged myself In advance, and witnout neanng and weighing- arguments on both sides, to vote for any measure to be brought before the Board of Education, and I cannot now abandon this principle because of a desire to secure or an apprehension to lose votes In an election. All I ran promise Is that ahould I be re-elected I would do everything within my power to obtain for you, or other representatives of your cause, a full opportunity to present It to and thoroughly advocate it before the board or its proper committee, and that I should then, without prejudice, and exclusively upon its merits, cast my vote, aa my conscientious conviction should dictate. I have the honor to remain res pact fully yours. B.

The switchman went to a cup board and found a paper package, tbe con tents of which be supposed was tbe above- named medicine. Ha made a fatal error, however, aa tbe little paper contained corrosive sublimate, ona of the moat potent poisons known to materia medics. The unfortunate fellow took, a small quantity of the corrosive poison and immediately dls- coverd bis mistake.

were used, but tha unfortunate man a till experienced great pain. Tbe doctors worked un remittingly wltb him for over two hours, but at tbe end of time be was stfll In great pain and tha physicians said that he had but a slight chance for ultimata recov ery.
