Of the many ships which make mysterious and ofttimes venturesome voyages from New Orleans to Cen tral American ports, not one has made such a perplexing trip as the steamer Alps, reported ashore on Glovwr'u Reef, off the coast of British Honduras. Not p dozen persons knew when the Alps loft that she carried William Adler and Moses Schwartz, respectively, the heads of two of New Orleans' larges t firms, which have since gone into the hands of re ceivers. Adler, in addition, was one of the city's leading bankers. The Alps carried about $25,000 worth of groceries from Adler's wholesale grocery firm. The Hondu ran government, to which this was consigned, has been asked by its con sul to detain the shipment and also to look for arms on the Alps. The consul claims the groceries were not Intended for his government. An ex planation offered by Adler's friends is that he hopes to recoup his firm's losses by selling the groceris In Cen tral American ports. Dispatches do not indicate that the Alps is in serious danger, but the fact that Bhe ls an old boat may make it impossible to save the cargo. Making Good.

Moon, a highly respect ed farmer, living in Highlands town ship, who was shot Christmas night by Tom Lindsay, died yesterday of his wounds.

Lindsay is still at large, though the officers have been looking for him. Mr. Moon had many friends in Greenville city, and was well-known all over the mountain country. There is general regret at his tragic end: Rufus Lindsay, brother of Tom Lindsay, who killed Moon, was in the city yesterday and employed At torney A. H. Dean to defend his bro ther. He stated that his brother would surrender by 10 o'clock Mon day. . While the exact cause of the trag edy ls not known, last summer Moon had an out-house burned. He had a ?ot of wheat stored in this house and the loss was considerable. He tracked two men directly to Lind say's blockade still, and two parties, were arrested and tried, but the evi dence was not sufficient to convict. Lindsay was never prosecuted, but it is believed that the tragedy ls In some way related to this incident.

"1 am well within my rights if I shoot the cat, am I not?" asked the sufferer. "I would hardly say that," replied the legal light. "The cat does not belong to you? as 1 understand it." "No." "And the fence does?" "Yes." "Then," concluded the lawyer, "I think it is safe to say that you have a perfect right to tear down the fence."
