Wilmington. Feb. 3.-S. Hill Ter ry, charged with the murder of his son in law, George Tate Bland, at the latter 'a home in this city, last September, put an abrupt ending U hi trial in the Superior court here thin afternoon, shortly after 1 o'clock, by committing suicide in hi cell, in the comity jail. The weapon used was an old case knife which had been sent him with his breakfast from home this morning The blade to dull and gapped and the physi rians who reached him auon after the tragedy aay that he must have hacked hia throat at least a dozen times. Death ensued in fifteen min ute after the deed and live minute after the aurgtoui reached him. An ugly wound, three inches long and two inches deep, was found on the right side of the throat, the external jugular vein having been entirely sere red. The attention of the jailer was called to the suicide by two white prisoners confined in an adjoining cell. They heard a gashing sound from Terry' cell and peeping in through the bars, saw the man lying on his cot in the throes of death. An alarm wa given and Jailer (iapps rushing to the scene, had a strnggle to wrest the knife from the dying grasp of the prisoner. Terr)' was about 58 years of age and owned considerable property, lie was dooi keeper of the State Sen ate iu 1'JOl. Eleven or twelve jurors to sit in judgment uh.ii his case hail len elected to the Stis-rior t'ourt when his lash dee put an end to the proceedings. I lis counselors w ere very confident of murder in the siv oiid' degree, but Terry ha 1 told them time and again he preferred death to a term in the penitentiary. Tern leaves a ife andj-veiaj grow n chil dren, one the wife flis victim, and anotlier, W. li. Terr) , an employe on the Seaboard Air Line at Raleigh. As the remains of the dead man were removed from his cell this af ternoon, after a coroner's inquest had been held and the jury had rendered a formal verdict that deceased came to his death by knife wounds inflict ed by his own hand, a letter was found under his cot which had been written for him by a fellow prisoner some four weeks ago, ostensibly not to be made public until after suicide, or until he had been executed by law. In the letter he gives a history of his life at length and justifies his action in killing his son-in-law by saving that Wand fired on him first. He says that he never bore any malice toward llland and had always tried to help him along in life. He bade farewell to his wife in affectionate terms, rxtolling her virtues and ex pressing regret that to her has fallen an unhappy lot. Terry's son said hia father had been very desKndcnt for several days, anil yesterday in conrt asked him to send him a small knife with which to pare his finger nails. loiter I -s complained of rheu matism ami asked-that ten cents' worth of opium be sent him. Neith er of the requests wen; complied with, though young Terry had no idea that his father contemplated sui cide, lie also remarked to his son yesterday during the same conversa tion of a melancholv nature that. "I'm white, and they'll nexer hang me or send me to the penitentiary for a long term of years." The fu neral will lie conducted tomorrow afternoon from the late residence. and the remains wilt lie interred in Oakdale cemetety.

With all the rumors about the re moval of Mrs Maybrkk from Ayles bury prison and the promise of par don at an early day, it may lie uaen T granted that she is soon to be a free woman once more. It is a moot ed quest lull w hetlter this is a case of ' llritish justice or of llritish stuiudi- Almostany school child will tell;,v The following is the full record you that when trie ngures composing i(lf tie caso ; ;bu do . f.4 any year can he divided by lour without a remainder, then we are having what is known as leap year. Tradition has long assured us that maidens and widows may do their own courting ahen they can run a four through the figure of the year without a remainder, and eonse- Mrs. M.ivbruk was Mrs. Florence T. Chandler, a daughter of the laic W. T. Chandler, a Uinker of Mobile, Ala. She met James Maybriek, a cottmi broker, 011 an ocean steamer while cnissing the Atlantic, in May, lsso. She was then 17 years old, and of an attractive personality. She quently the joke about leap ywr'i.ji iischooliil in France and tier- goes the round whenever an engagi mtiit is announced or a marriage consummated. The woman i su posed to have signified her choice in a direct manner, and with a common sense view of the situation, it would apear to be entirely rational and proper that the woman should have one chance in four to be suited in matrimony. The queens of Kiigland were al ways privileged to do their own courting, but even year, as well as hflp year, was the queen's opportu nity to make proposals. tjuecn Victoria's ppuNisa! to Prince Allien was always a touching remi niseeticc to her majesty, and although the story is told that he loved anoth er girl liettcr at one time, faithful Queen Vic never swerved from her ehoiceand her chosen consort dur ing her long and useful life. As a great many matches arc made on earth land erhups but few in heaven , the woman should un doubtedly he satisfied with her selec tion of life mate when she is mated. Itut a good manv people marrv for other things as well as love. In this monev-loving age wealth has a tine howing in the miiiils of manv of the matrimonially inclined. All of us have w itnessed match making whi le no match woiilil have occurred if there bad I icon little or no money in sight. Young women have given consent to marry "11 fich men, when the old man would liuve I'll pushed aside except for his monev, or w hat Ins monev would give the bride in (losiiion or luxury. iirs well raised have Ijeen known to marry very sorry youngsters, lacking in morals and even good character, if then1 was monev in Imtik or real slate in sight. In all such cases it is presumable the women helped to the courting, and as it happens manv tunes, si. e :s short on.pMr!r sympathy when the groom turns out to lie a verv sorrv middle-aged man, as well us a verv indifferent sort of a bridegroom, w hen she look him for us rent roll, instead of his good character. .Mv mind goes back to a quarter of a eeiiturv or more when a young man deplored in my presence the marriage oi a nice young limy to a snappy sort of a fellow w ho had, un fortunately, inherited consideralile property. "She is too nice to be turned over to that coarse, vulgar hub," he complained. "Why don't you go to her broth rs and tell them what von know ?" I queried. Illess goodness! thev don t care. so they get in reach of the- money." "Mavis1 she is likewise inclined, I continued. "No, I don't think so," he rejoined. Her folks want her to marrv rich, but she likes riches, too, maybe." then, 1 answered, the case is hopeless. She will have to "dree her weird," as the canny Scotch were wont to express it." And she did, and when the di vorce was afterwards obtained she had a houseful of little children, unci the man found another wife us soon is iKissible. If she had been oh liged to "pop the question during the nearest lean vear, mavis1 sin would have asked the young man some plain questions, wineti would have saved her some lifelong regrets and mournful experiences. hv shouldn t the young woman signify lier choice occasionally? We have heard of maidens living all their lives in single blesse Iness, be cause no word was spoken by those thev loved. To break the ice and relieve the situation of its cnibnmss- ment, wouldn t have hurl either party. I he young man might say No, of course, but a full under standing would have cleared the at mosphere, so to speak, and saved the jxior woman some -very silly mooningsand wasted sacrifices the remainder of her days. Leap year should, therefore, be taken seriouslv. There arc as good fish in the sea as were ever caught out of it, and if the girl is quite sure she will never love anylmdy else, let her mako the young man aware of her selection, and then hike the chances.

Ijter Maybriek purchased a line residence in thesuburbsof Liverpool, and they weut to live in that city. Two chil dren were born, a boy and a girl. and for two or three vears after their wedding (hey were apparently very happy. Maybriek, however, became jeal ous, it is said, of a man named Uri el ly w ho lived in Liverpool, and w ho took Mrs M. iv brick to a race track A ioleut scene followed lift ween husliand and wife. Maybriek first blacked his wife's eyes and then or dered her out of the house. When the cab came to take her away he re fused to allow her to pi. It was said that Mrs. Maybriek Ihen threatened to kill her husband. Soon afterward lie became ill and died. The doc tors described the cause of death lis gastro-enteritis, or inllamiimtion and irritation of the stomach and bowels. The pissip of a maid employed in the Maybriek house stirred the Kng lish prosivutiiig authorities to action, and Mrs. Maybriek was arrested and immediately charged with having INiisoiied her husliand with arsenic. A search through the house revealed S.I grains of that drug hidden there, while an autopsy and chemical an alysis of Maybriek s organs also re vealed the presence of a small amount of arsenic. Y'etJhere was conclusive evidence to show that arsenic was one of the drugs that Maybriek was addicted to taking. It was also shown that a short time liefore he became sick he purchased LV) grains of the poison. The trial Ixvame largely a battle of exiwrts and was bitterly fought. Mrs. Maybriek was defended by Sir Charles Russell, who afterward lie came bird Chief .Justice of Knglaud. The presiding justice was Justice Sir Fitjames Stephens. Not long after the trial the latter went insane ami died in a madhouse. After the trial was concluded the jury retired and was out minutes, ami returned with a verdict of mur der in the first degree. Mrs. May- . brick was sentenced and the scaffold for her execution was erected close to her cell in the prison. At that time came a reversal of popular fool ing, which hail lncn stnmg against her, which was quick enough and strong enough for the death sentence to Ik1 commuted to life imprison ment. Ordinarily and on general princi ples it would have Iwcn argued in this country that Southern women of the liest Southern families are not suillv of unfaithfulness to their hus bands, and are not in the habit of poisoning them The established fact that Mr. Maybriek was an arse nic fiend would have served to make it reasonable that the accusations of martial infidelity were the result of a disordered brain, while his cruelty would have turn a strong apcal to the American instinct that a man w ho lavs his hand upon a woman save in thewavof kindness, deserves about anvthing lwid that comes te him. Moreover, it was established, on the theorvof the prosecution, that not enough arsenic was administered to him bv Mrs. M.ivbrick to cause his death, and that his own use of the drug had to Is1 added to the amount she rave him to kill him. It was held that she was guilty of in tended murder. The charge of tin judge was a virtual instruction to convict her, and this judge not long afterwards died a madman. 1 here has been much svmpathv for the woman in America: and many peti tions have gone to F.ngland for her release, while it is a mistake to sun pose that any American minister or emkissador has ever had more to do with the effort to release her than simply to forward the petitions with out recommendation And yet, while then' mav have lieen a fearful miscarriage of justice in this case, we are hound to respect p"" the character of justice that doe not bend to sentimental considerations 1 1 Mrs. Maybriek s sex, her youth, her, j tieauty. the fai t that she was an J American woman, and thus made J) the apix-al to the stranger, the fact , ) that her husliand was other kinds of J a liend as wi ll as an arsenic fiend. l the fact that she was wealthy, was s woman of refined breeding, had many influential friends, and that petitions for ber release have lieen iu circulation for many years, these things have not availed one Whit Even now her rehase is suggested as that of a ticket -of leave instead of a pardon, which will mean tliat she has lii-en released for the reason of good behavior, coupled with the fact of having served the average life terra. Her pardon would amount to an vknowledgoment of doubtful guilt or of severe punishment. We reeat that we cannot help re-siHx-ting the majestv of the law as thus interpreted and enforced, al though there are circumstances in this celebiated case that raise the presumption of a miscarriage of jus tice. 1 he men who sit on the judi cial bench and in the jury box are not infallible. Hut such miscar riages are rare indeed as compared with our American system of letting ninety-nine guilty men esca for fear we shall punish one innocent one, and the habit of our governors and pardoning boards of turning out the folks that the juries have been persuaded to convict.

It seem so applicable to farming in the middle South. It is the very basis of our fanning ideals. Person ally, I have a great ambition to r.tise grass and cattle, and I h"e it may txvome the central idea of a million farmers iii our section of the country. (irasa and cattle mean wealth to the soil: they mean wealth to the far mer. Iok the world over and see if it is not true that where grass and cattle are, there you find productive soils, good school houses and g"l churches, comfortable homes and well-to do farmers. The first ideal then for the fanner, is enough cattle and sheep and hogs to consume every bit of forage thai can be raised. I sometimes think we will never grow clover and cowjieas to any extent until we are forced to, so as to grow feed for live stock We have heard a great deal alsmt these two splendid crops and all of us know they will more quickly rescue old worn out lands than will anything else we can do. Still we are slow to listen to this message whenever it is brought "Cattle on a thousand hills'' will preach the sermon over again and then we will hear. If this whole matter of live slock production were still an untried ex periment, 1 should not U1 so opti mistic in advocating its extension Hut it is no exicriiucnt ; it is an es tablished fact as is demonstrated by the thousands now engaged in the work. Hut the thousands are so few. We need millions of people to make this a great live stock section. We are buying too many carloads of beef and Hrk and butter and clrccse from the West and North. It takes too much of our cotton crop ami loiiaceo crop ami orner cmps to buy the other things we need and have to have. I his money goes away from us and our neigh bors and finally landsclsewherethan w here it was earned by long hours ill the cotton held. We can change this condition, and quickly too, by growing on our Southern farms, not only practically all we need lo feed our own families, but have much to spare for our cities ami towns. Another ideal that is timely here is the improvement of the home sur roundings. 1 trust every Progres sive Farmer reader will be an active agent for making the farm home let ter and Ix'Uer. It will bike a long time for ns, or any other pinple, to reach perfection in Ibis respect. There arc so many things to do. The lanes nlsiut the farm may lie in need of improvement, the fences surround ing the house and barns can have a coat of whitewash each year ; the law u can lie made better and liettcr; the farm orchard can lie enlarged so as to include all of the small fruits ; the farmer's library can be made a more frequented place ; more liooks md magazines anil agricultural pa pers can Is1 procured and read. 1 bese and other ideals should al ways lie tielore ns. .Not simply to make the farm liettcr to make more money ; we all like to do this.
