SHENANDOAH HERALD ?S PUBI.I8IIKD WEEKLY BY JOHN H. GRABILL WOODSTOCK, VIKGINTA. .FRIDAY FEBRUARY 7, .908; a i President has had his say, and it was said in hisinost strenuous Style. At the present time, it looks like Taft or Hughes as the Re? publican nominee and Bryan as the democratic. Mr. Bryan does not propose to heed the advice of politicians. He considers the people supreme and will be governened only by their suggestions. If it is settled that Mr. Bryan is to be the next candidate for President, and that he is to le consulted as to the choice of his running mate, why go to the un? necessary expense of holding a convention ? IN THE VIROINIA LEfllSLATURE. Richmond. Va., Feb. 3.?Having for Its purpose the impeachment of Judge J. Wa G. Blackstone, of the Eleventh judicial circuit, a resolution was pro sent* d in the House today by Ham R. Houston, of Hampton. There are two petitions, the first eicned by a committee of voters of Elizabeth couuty and the second bj 400 voters. Judge Blackstone was accused of lntox;cation on the bench during tin trial of a negro named U/.zell, fe? ing the Accomac race riots last sun - mer. At the Tzzell trial Judge Black? stone arraigned Governor Swanson for sending tnx ps to Acccmac, ssjlng lt was the act of a spectacular Gover? nor given to spontaneous combustior i The Governor responded to tl e charges stating that he would ret seriously consider condemnation from acch a source. It is believed the investigation will make it necessary to extend tbe session to 90 days. A measure offered by Senator Strode seeks to provide a loan fund for the aid of needy and deserving students at certain of the state educational II tutions The resolution by Delegate Thrift. of Madison, to invite W. J. Bryan to address the legislature at an earlj date was unanimously adopted by ths House. Gov. Swanson is in ace and will invite Mr. Bryan. The Hou^e Committee on Courts of Justice bas fixed next Tuesdav as the time for the hearing of witnesses foi and against Judge Blackstone, ar. is probable that ths joint-resolutioi. method of procedure, which does not take awav from the accused the righi to hold official position in tbe future, will be adhered to. If Judge Black? stone should be impeached he wouii. never again be allowed to hold anj office of trust in the gift of the State.

The city is in a state of uproar. The King's second son, the infant Manuel, was slightly wounded, but Queen a. who strove te) save the Clown Prince's life by throwing herself upon him was unhurt A band of men, waiting at the corner of the Praco do Commercio and the Rue do Arsenal, suddenly sprang toward the open carriage, in which the royal family were driving to the palace, and leveling carbines, which they bad concealed upon them, fired. The King and the Crown Prince, npon whom the attack was directed, were each shot three times. Ths*King died almost instantly, and the Crown Prises lived long enough to be carried to the Marine Arsenal nearby, where he expired. Almost at the first shot the King fell back on the cushions dying, and l moment the Crown Prince was rise and then sink back or. the seat. Queen Amelie jumped up ard * I toward the Crown Prince, in an apparent effort to save his life at tbe cost of her own, but the Prince had received his death wound. The police guard tired upon the assas? sins and killed two of them. Tbs royal family were returning from Villa Vicosa, where they had been sojourning and were on their way from tbe raih osd itation to the palace. A strong guard was in attendance be cause of tbs recent uprising in tbe city and the discovery of a plot to as? sassinate Premier Franco and over? throw the monarchy. Tie band of murderers, however, had selected the most advantageous spot for the commission of their crime, for they were concealed from the eyes of the police until the carriage had wt* elad ll to the Praco do Commercio, a large square. Before any of thc guards we**e aware of what was hap? pening the assassins leaped toward the carriage, and instantly a fusiladt >; shots rang out. In a moment al] was confusion, the King and Crewe Prince being shot down without the ilighteat chance to save themselves. Police guards sprang upon the regicides, the number of whom is somewhat uncertain. Besides thc ^assins killed, three othei saptured, and on9 of these com . suicide after being placed ir prison. It is charged that one of the murderers was a Spaniard, named Cor dova. HA7RY K. THAW NOT QUILTY. New York, Feb. 2.?Adjudged not guilty of the murder of Stanford White, bf reason of insanity at the time the fatal shots were fired, Harry Kendall Thaw was held yesterday hy? the court to be a dangerous lunatic ^nd was whirled away to the State . for the Criminal insane at ? an. It was a quick transiton from the dingy little cell in the Tombs, which had been the young man's home f< r more than eighteen months, to tl e white-bedded wards of the big asylum, tucked away on the snow-covered sloping banks of the Hudson River, fifty miles above the city. The verdict came after twenty-five - and when every one Ii the case had abandoned all hope of an agreement ever being reached in this or any other trial. hours after the foreman's lips bsd framed the words, "Not guilty,'* with the accompany mg insanity clause, Thaw, protesting that be was sane, ssl o hil wai to Mattoawan. A lit :fa!l he had been received in the institution under commitment paper*., which directed his detention "until discharged by due course of law." No more unwilling patient ever made a journey to a State Institution. Thaw's train cn its way to Fishkill Landing, where a carriage was taken to Matteawan, passed beneath the very of grim Sing Sing, but at no time since his arrest on the night of June25, 1906, had the young Pittsburg millionaire ever held the thought that he we?uid see the inside of that famous prison, and he heeded it not. Justice Dowling, it was said, had been consulted in the matter of an ap? peal for habeas corpus after he had signed bis order of commitment, and informally had advised Thaw's coun? sel againat making an immediate con? test. The prisoner's consent was won ?; ly after a lively scene with his coun s i and his wife, the latter pleading .. th him for more than an hour to be co itent for a time at least with what s had given bira. Under jroraise that some action sp e-dily *ould bc taken looking to th ? appointment of a comm'ssion to i ,uire int. his present sanity or for transfer to private institution, / here his wife and oth^r members of is family might reside with him, Thaw consented to go without further p *otest.
