JL Kentucky Congressman Who Won't Sit Alongside of a "Nigger. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Sept. SO. Kepresentative Dickerson of Kentucky, the successor of Senator Carlisle in the : House of Representatives, refuses to sit beside a "nigger." Mr. Miller of South Carolina, the colored man "who was given the seat in the House of Mr. Elliott, of that State, last week, had, of coarse, to take the desk made vacant by the latter, and it happen s that Mr. Dickerson sits next to him. Mr. Miller is a mulatto of light complexion, dresses neatly, and is quito as good-looking as Mr. Dickerson, but the latter thinks his dignity in- , jured by having a negro Congressman so near him, and has asked the Door-keeper to lind him another seat. v Kcfused to Name Their Informants. Washington,- Sept. CO. Mr. Seckendorf, the New York Tribune correspondent, appeared before the Kaum investigating committee to-day.

Ma. S. X. Clark, of the Tribune's Washington bureau, was called as a witness, but declined to give the name of any person who had given him information. Mr. Lewis, a minority member, said he wanted to report to the House what had been learned before this Congress adjourned, and the minority report had already been drawn. The chairman said that it seemed impossible for the committeo to meet again, as this was the last business day of the session. But the committee would stand adjonrned subject to call, and another meeting would be held this session if possible. Shipping Dills Go Over. Bpsclal to lie Indianapolis Journal. Washington', Sept GO. Messrs. Farquhar and Dinglcy, who represent the shipping interests, have arranged with Speaker Heed to have the ship-subsidy bills taken up daring the first days of the next session. It is the best they could - do, for it was evident that the House would.not listen to a disscussion on tonnage bills this session. As it is, the subsidy bill has a place in the Republican campaign book-as one of the measures which this Congress has passed, for it was confidently expected the matter wonld get through. The delay is a sore disappointment to the shipping localities. Aaron Vanderbilt. of New York, has been about the corridors of the House for a week in an effort to Bpur members up to passing the bill at once, but it has been no use and he goes home to-night ( Delay in the Ballot-Box Inquiry 'Iteport.'

Miss Mattie Joseph, daughter of Bernard Joseph, a prominent merchant here, was murdered tb-day by Alexander Campbell, her rejected lover. About noon Mrs. Joseph. Miss Mattie and Mrs, W. D. Allen and her baby were sitting in the hallway of the Joseph mansion in conversation. Suddenly Alexander Campbell entered without knocking. Mrs. Joseph said: "Mattie. take Mr. Campbell into the pailor. Whereupon Miss Mattie arose, and on going toward Campbell with both hands offered to him, she saw him take a revolver from his coat pocket and, divining his intention, she turned and ran out of the house. Mrs. Joseph, Mrs. Allen and a colored servant endeavored by. frantic ap peals to Campbell to save Miss Mattio, but he broke away from them and fired at tho girl, the first shot indicting only a slight wound. Miss Mattie continued to run, with tho servant trying to drive oil the assasssin, who followed bis victim across the Joseph yard, across Central avenue, and though Dr. Shine's side gate. Mrs. Joseph was raeanwmie running around to ner irons gate, screaming in terror and crying: "Don't kill Mattie.' Their cries were una vailing, as the demon of jealousy possessed uampbell. and he continued, intent on the death of his victim, and as she faced him again he tired a second shot, missing her. She then ran around to the front of Dr. Shine's residence, where she fell backward in a bed of llowers. Then, as she was trying to rise from the ground, Campbell iired a third shot, which passed through the heart of his victim. The pistol failed to respond to tho fourth and fifth pulling of tho trigger. Campbell was arrested and carried to lail. He says he was engaged to Miss Joseph several months, but that the girl sent him a note breaking it off. Last Monday he called for an explanation, and she said her marriage to him would be distasteful' to her parents. He then threatened her life. but she apparently did not think him in earnest. He went to the house to-day de termined to kill her at hrst sight. He says he "expects to hang,' and seems indifferent to his fate. Campbell is a native of Balti more, Md., and has been here only a short time. An extra guard is at the jail to pre vent lynching. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

Kansas City Special to New York: ITcrauL Mr. J. I!. Johnson, a Chicago traveling man, well known iu this city, who returned lately from a trip through levr Mexico, savs he was the witness of one of the most horrible "duels ever fought in that land. where the shedding of human blood excites but little attention, and the slayer of a fel low-man, if the killing is done in anything like a fair fight, gees scot free. Mr. Johneon says be was in the southern part of New Mexico taking a wagon ride with his sam ples, when he arrived at the little village of Sebolla. His driver was a Mexican and acted as interpreter. There was no hotel in the place, but they succeeded in obtain ing accommodations at a house which was a slight remove from a stable. After making out a supper as best L& could, Mr. Johnson satin front of the housd enjoying a cigar. Inside he could hear the pretty daughter of his host laughing and chattering. . Ibe girl was evidently the belle of the country and knew it. She was about fifteen years old. Early in the evening a young Mexican rode up. He was tricked out in all the finery allected by the horsemen of that country, and from the effusive reception accorded by the girl he was undoubtedly a favorite. "While the merriment was at its height, another young man rode up. dresseu enough like the hrst to play the twin-brother act. He was as well received as the hrst by the girl, but it was plain that the hrst comer looked on tho second with jealous eyes. A few minutes later the driver informed Mr. Johnson that there would be trouble, for the men were rivals and tho girl was a thorough coquette. The two herders had been in the houae a short time when loud talking and quarreling were heard. Mr.. Johnson went in, attracted by the noise, and saw at once that there would be a light. The girl, pleased to bo the cause of such a row, showed her pearly teeth, and her black eyes grew brighter still as the excitement increased. Finally the rival lovers appeared to have come to some agreement, and, appealing to his interpreter, Mr.-Johnson found that the men had determined to fight a dnel with their lassoes. It was a bright moonlight night as they rodoOnt to the prairie. There wero about a dozen in the party. Mr. Johnson tried, through his interpreter, to patch up a peace, but tho man said the Mexicans told him to mind his own business, which ho concluded to do. A rapid gallop took the party fvr enough out iuto the plain to allow the duelists free room to ride at will. av f i i a i ii4rnow icrriuie mo auaiQ wouia De, air. jonnson says, i mm not yio sngntefituiea, or I certainly wonld not have been a witness to it. The two men stripped to the waist. They were bare-headed. There was none of the formality and politeness which mark the duels of civilized men. They simply hated each other, and desired to kill. The last spoken word of each was a curse. Their horses were put facing each other close together. At a given signal they rodo slowly past each other, went about twenty yards, turned and were ready to tight, l.asso in band, they slowly circled about, each keeping a watchful eye on tho movements of his rival. Suddenly a hiss was beard, and a lasso llew through the air from one man. An alert eye and a quick dodge caused it to fall short,' and before it could bo recovered the other had thrown his rope, but ft, too, was carefully evaded. This continued for several minutes, many throws being made and avoided. The deadly loop was thrown by experts, but tbey were also dodged by men who had studied the art all their lives. 'At last the smaller of the two men sent his lasso whistling through the air. I saw the other throw up his hand and arm to ward it oil', but tho loop settled down over his head and arm, and in a Hash it was tight. It was all done in the twinkling of an eye. Both horses were on the run while the loop was fastened tisht about the man's neck and arm. He was jerked ont of the saddle, and then in somo way his boot caught in his stirrup and he hung screaming between the two horses, the lasso cutting into his flesh as the horses strained apart as if trying to tear him iu two. It was simply awful. The victorious man was yelling like a demon and urging his horse to greater efforts. I could not stand the sight and rushed forward to cut the ropo aud free the unfortunate man, but before I could reach him his boot gave way, and the other started his horso running over tho prairie, dragging tbo inanimate body of his rival, which was fast being reduced to s shapeless mass. Kound and roind he circled, until at the awful sight I fainted. When I recovered consciousness I was on a bench in front of tho bouao and tho party had dispersed. Out on the plain lay thfc body of the victim of the duel, and in the houso were the girl and tho victor laughing and talking as if nothing had I .happened."

The Presidential Candidate and Ills Absence of llis-IIead.,, New York World. "You see," said the middle-aged man, "I was" born in Springfield, I1L, and lived there until after the war. From my earliest boyhood Abe Lincoln was to me an impressive figure. He used to come to my fathers store, stick his feet on the counter and talk about the aflairs of the Nation. I was present ono night when Abe came in. looking as melancholy as a man whose hens won't lay, "What's the matter, Lincoln!' my iather asked. f ' ' " '0h, nothing mnch. I'm discouraged bit. 1 fear my tilt with Douglas was not very successful.' "'Nonsense, Abe,' remarked my father. 'Your words have electritied tho country. They will bear rich fruit for you. Your.1 reputation has been merely local hereto--fore; now it is national.' : . " Do you think sot Well, I hope you're right,' Then tho future President stalked out into the night, looking more cheerful than when he entered? "I will never forget the first few days., after he was nominated. At that time-; Springfield had no postal delivery, and we were in the habit of going to the postoftico lato in the afternoon for our mail. Hometimes 200 people would gather in and near the postollit?. The evening after ho was chosen presidential candidate by his Tarty Abe came to -.tho postofiice as usual for his letters. He was dressed in tho homely fashion of tho time and place, and greeted his neighbors in his usual democratic way. He found his box full of letters and newspapers. "The next afternoon ho came again. This time his mail tilled three boxes. He was dressed with more care than he had been the day before. On the third day after his nomination he appeared at the postoflico with a basket on his arm. He went away with his basket, pockets and bat oversow ing with envelopes, newspapers, campaign documents, etc. "After that he was obliged to employ the services of a secretary, who collected his 1 mail, and wo saw but little of the great man. Whenever he appeared In public. however, we noticed that be wore what gossips called 'his Sunday best "Those were lively times in Springfield. The town was overrun withpromiuent men from all parts of.the country. It was my Erivilege to attend the reception given to is fellow-townsmen by Lincoln alter his election. I will never forget the picture he presented as he towered above hit) wife and. greeted his old friends. There was not iu hi a manner the slightest indication of what is now called 'the big-head.' Mrs. Lincoln' was very gracious and made a lino impreseion that night. I heard Abe say to my father in the hallway as wo were about to leave: . " I guess Mary will carry herself right well in Washington, old man.' "Speaking of Mrs. Lincoln reminds mo of an episode that took place some years before Abe became a national hero. There was a well-to-do tailor in Springfield who owned a handsome bouso just across the street from tho Lincoln. Mrs. Lincoln did not feel pleased that a tailor should live in a finer residence than that occupied by a leading lawyer. When Abe was oil cm circuit, thereforo, she had a story added to their house. The job was nearly finished when Abo returned. He strodo down tho street, gazed at his hous in surprise, and then crossed to the tailor's hide of the road. "'Who. lives in that palatial man&ioa over there!' be asked of his neighbor. "The widow Lincolu,' answered the smiling tailor. Then was heard a voico from tne top story of tho Lincoln house: "'Abe, Abe; come to dinner. You're late.' 99 . Horse Utievrs Caught. John Shepard and John Stanton wero arrested iu Elizabetbtowu, yesterday, having in their possession a line horho aud bugy, which thev had oilered to sell for Sl5. The low price excited Ibupicion against them, leading to their apprehen sion. The rig proved to be tho property of Peter Khrlich, the coal-dealeri ot tbis city. 'Tho men wero formerly in his- employ. They had clipped th horse's mane as disguise, after hearing of tho buspicioa against thew.
