f. Li. Duken, the Junior Membcr-l'.lcct of
I tie Legiilatute from J-ay cite,
Uommlu a UouiUlUe.
la Uniontown, tho county seat of Fay
otto county, Pa., a shocking tragedy was
enacted about 10 o'clock Sunday morning.
Just as the church bells were- calling the
people to their respective places of wor
ship the news was circulated on the streets
that Captain A. C. Nutt, cashier of tho
Pennsylvauia state treasuiy, had been shot
and killed ia a room at the Jennings hotel
by N. L. DuUcf, a well known member of
Fayetto county bar and member-elect of
tho Pennsylvania Legislature Tho high
social and political standing of both men
gave such prominence to tho affair that
the hotel was as oaco surrounded by
excited citizens from all parts of the
town. A physician was called in immedi
ately after the (.hooting, but ho pro
nounced tho wound fatal, and in ten min
utes Captain Nutt was ilea'2. Tha coro
ner was notified aud a juiy e-mpauuelleci.
From several witnec. tho story of the
tiagedy was abcertair.oJ to be as follows :
Chatles Nutt, who is a icsideat oi the
town, came homo Satuiday evening fioni
Ilarrisburg to pay a fchort visit to his fam
ily. He is chief cashit r in tho slate treas.
ury departmrnt, aud .is tho oilice would
ba closed for Chiistu:as ha had an oppoi
tuuity of making a biicf visit to his home.
Ho transacted some ba iisess that evening
and Lext mourn:,: ho went to the McClel
land hotel to s-re lu nephew, F. C. Bieck
enridge, who i- ea-'hicr of the People's
bank of Fajctte county. The two went
into tho bank together, aud after talking
over a littlo inue? of busiucjj Captain
Nutt said to his nephu.v : ' I have sj'tio
trouble on hand, and, as I wish to talk to
some one about it, I may ad well make a
confidant of you. I have lively received
two iufamojs letters from X. L. Dukes
which I will show you. I want to bcc
Dukes this morning, to have an interview
with him, aslicturn to UariMnug to
morrow.
A Ifatal ucclsloy.
then decided to go
They then decided to go to Dukes'
room, which vv.:s just across tho street
from wheio they wcie in the bank. UrccL
enridgo said ho would go up and sec if
Dukes was in. The proprietor of tho
hotel instructed the colored poiter to con
duct Brcckenridgn up to tho 100m, which
is on tho sccoud lloor. They panned
through the sitting-room and up tho stabs,
Captain Nutt at the fame time enteiiag
tho hall by the fious door and passing up
tho steps" after them. Dukes answered
Brcckcnridge's rap at the door, vher
tipon Brcekenwdgo opened it aad said ho
had brought Captain Nutt up, who withtd
to speak with him. Captain Nutt entered,
and Breckeniidge cair.o, outside and
stopped to talk with James I. Feather,
son-in-law of the proprietor. As they
conversed in tho hall, near tho door, they
hoard heavy seuflling inside and the voico
of Nutt crying out for Bieckenridgo. Oa
rushiug into tho icom they found tho two
men clinched in a tcriiblo struggle. Thcj'
at onco took hold of them and cuccecucd
in getting them separated. No weapons
wcrn visible, except that Nutt had in I113
hand a cane with which ho uunlly
walked. Feather pushed Dukes back iato
ono corner of tho room and Breckcmidgo
got Nutt off into another corner.
From this point on tho testimony is
somewhat confused, owing to tho rscited
condition of tho paities present. Feather
testified that while ho stood holdirg
Dukes, who was ten feet distant from
Nutt, ho suddenly drew a revolver liom
his pocket and exclaimed : " Yon camo
in hero to whip mo and to I shoot ycu,-'
at the saruo time raising his revolver and
tiring at his antagonist ; tho ball took
effect just below tho loft eje, penetrating
tho brain ; Captain Nutt lell to the lloor
and never spoko afterward ; Brcckcnridgo
took the dying man in his arms and
Feather engaged in a desperate struggle to
wrest the revolver from Dukcr, finally
succeeding. Breckenridgo and Feather
both testified that Nutt had no revolver
in his hand and was making no effort to
get ono ; but that after Dukes had fired
Nutt icached into his pocket, and when
they pulled his hand out it was founJ to bo
holding a revolver in a death grip.
A Claim of Self-Uereuce.
The colored porter testified that Nu.t
was standing with his right elbow resting
on thvs mantelpiece, with a cano in his
right hand, as if resting, whea tLo shot
was fired. Mr. Jennings, proprietor of
tho hotel, was fitting in a room just
below and heard a voicj which ho sup
posed to bo that of Dukes saying St.u.d
back ; I am in self defense," but ucitLcr
ofthethice wlu witnessed the shooting
remembered heating this. Finding his
shot was fatal Dukes walked down tho
steps, remarking to Mrs. Jcuuings, "I
am sorry, but I had to do it in self-do
feuco." Ho then continued out and down
tho back way to tho shei ill's house aud
gavo himself up. Ho subsequently made
a statement to his attorney to tho effect
that Nutt camo into his room aad made
an assault upon him with a cane ; Lhat he
wrested tho cano from Nutt aud tho latter
was reaching for his revolver, whereupon
ho pulled out his own aud shot in self
defence. After hearing the evidence the coroner's
jury returned a verdict that Captain Nutt
camo to his death by a pistol Ghot at tho
hands of L. N. Dukes. The bodywrs
taken to his late home, wheto tho scene en
tho part of his family was a most affecting
ono. Mrs. Nutt was completely prostrated
and is suffering from violent paroxysms,
while the children are almost iiantio with
grief. Captain Nutt was dovotedly at
tached to his family, and tha shock is an
indescribably terrible one.
Knvcloped In Mystery.
The cause of tho tragedy is enveloped in
mystery. Nutt and Dukes were never
known to Lave any difiiculiy, and all the
testimony taken before tho coroner's juiy
threw not the slightest light on tho sul
ject. Dukes was paying attention to Cap
tain Nutt's daughter, aad it is known
that Nutt regarded this with disfavor.
Some bitter correspondence must have
passed between tho two men and a meet
ing was probably expected by them. Only
two or three days ago Dukes purchased a
revolver in town, of thirty-two calibre,
with which ho did tho shooting, and when
ho went down to breakfast he gave orders
to havo his room cleaned up immediately,
indicating that hocxpected company.
The Men's Personal Character.
The personal character of both men, ro
far as known to tho public, was above re
proach. Neither had any bad habits.
Capt. Nutt was attached to his family
With a devotion that is rarely equaled. A
few years ago he built himself a beautiful
residence ou the outskirts of tho town.
Ho filled it with everything that would
add to tho pleasure aud comfort of his
family, and iheie ho delighted to entertain
his fiiends. His eldest daughter, au ac
complished young lady just blooming into
womanhood, had beeu tho object of
Duke's attentions. Sho was tho applo of i
tier latuer's eye. His own cultured mmd
had carefully directed her education.
Upon her ho had lavished money and care
without stint. He almost idolized her.
His affectionate pride in her was known
of the whole town. He regarded Dukes'
attentions to her with disfavor, and
while nothing definite is known, it is
altogether likely that tho shooting had
its origin iu some demand relative to
his daughter which ho was making of
Dukes.
Capt. Nutt himsolf was a man of pure
tastes and aspirations, and possessed rare
literary accomplishments He was a mem
ber of the Pennsylvania State Historical
society. He was a fine Latin and Greek
scholar, and in his knowledge of history
and general literature had comparatively
few equals. He graduated at Allegheny
college, Meadvillc, about tho time the war
broke out, and enlisting served through
out the rebellion. After the killing his
dead body was taken to the beautiful
home which he had built for his family.
The scene that followed was of tho most
heartrending character. His wife, a re-
.fined lady of tho most lovable disposi
tion, is almost insane with grief. His littlo
children are uuablo to compichetul the ex
tent of tho calamity that has overtaken
them Their dazed minds only realize
that something terrible has happened.
Capt. Nutt recently bought aa interest
in the Harrisburg Telegraph, with tho
management of which ho expected to be
come actively identified upon the expiia
tiou of tho term of StatoTrcasurei- Bailey,
lie was a man of warm he lit and gener
ous impulses, and nothing e.mld have been
more foreign to hi3 naturo thau a causeless
peisonal encounter.
Nicholas Lyman Dakos. who did tho
shooting, has hcrctoi'oie borr:e :; high
character for good deportnusit. Ia man
ner he is quiet and unostentatious, aud
facially clever and couenia!. IIo is noted
for attention to his own business. Appar
ently ha has Lad few iiitimatn friends. He
is sober, industi ions and stands liiuh at
tho bar and in tho community. Mr. Jen
nings, proprietor of tho hotol, tcslified be
fore the coroner's jury that he heard
Dukes 8'iy. after Nutt entered tho room,
Stand back, Nutt ! I am ou my dofen-o
and will shoot you."

Wanamakers;
Silk novelties innumerable
and indescribable. Everything
that ladies or dressmakers have
occasion for in matching; deco
rating, combining. What we,
are remarkable for, more than
for anything else in silks, is va
riety ; or, at least, we are re
puted so. You hear it said by
everybody: "If vou want to
match anything, or find a rare
silk, even an unexpectable one.
go to Wanamaker's."
lhe other peculiarity that
everybody expects to find here
is less pleasant to speak of;
lower prices. We put it second.
because there are people who
don t credit us with . lower
prices. Still, we imagine that
if one should assert the con
trary, almost everybody in Phil
adelphia would believe it.
Oftener we speak of other
aspects of our trade; aspects
less obvious or less recognized.
It is well occasionally to give
old news.

Perhaps this it is. A great many
seal coats and fur-lined circu
lars are ready-made. More
sizes are ready-made here than
anybody expects; especially the
unexpected sizes. Ready-made
work we can make in July.
Why shouldn't we make all the
