FOND OF FINERY.

Edith Mary Burnham, 21, and Elizabeth Annie
Gibbs, 18, pupils of Bridge House Ladies' School,
Kenilworth, were at Leamington on Monday charged
with stealing six gold scarf pins and one silver brooch,
value £6 ss. 6d., the property of Robert S. Roberts,
The Parade, Leamington, and four gold rings, value
£8 Bs., the property of Messrs. Schwarck and Son, The
Parade, Leamington. It appeared from the evidence
that in January Burnham went to the shop of Messrs.
Schwarck and Sons and obtained a watch and chain
in exchange for four scarf pins and two rings. After
she had left the shop Mr. Schwarck discovered that
the two rings were part of property stolen from his
shop in June of last year, and he communicated with
the police, who, on further investigation, found that
the scarf pins had been stolen from the shop of Mr.
Roberts. On Saturday morning, Inspector Glenn, of
the Leamington Police Force, arrested Miss Burnham
on suspicion, as she answered the description given by
Mr. Schwarck. Miss Burnham admitted exchanging
the pins for the watch, but said they were given to
her by Miss Gibbs, who, on being arrested, admitted
stealing some of the articles. Both ladies are most
respectably connected, and Miss Gibbs inherits a
large fortune on attaining her majority. The Bench
fined the defendants £lO each, including costs. The
money was paid. •

THE TRAVELS OF A STORM.

The Calcutta Pioneer mentions a circumstance
connected with the two recent cyclonic storms which
appears worthy the attention of meteorologists.
Those storms struck the Scinde desert between 24th
and 30th January, and passed in a straight line across
the continent to Cuttach at the rate of 250 to 300
miles daily. The second continued unbroken across
the Bay of Bengal to Burmah. If the line they
followed were prolonged straight westward, it would
reach Vienna, which is about 3600 miles from Scinde.
There seems to have been an unusually violent atmos-
pheric disturbance in Vienna in the early part of
January, so the time and the rate of travelling would
agree with the assumption that the storms were
identical with that disturbance.

ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.

A correspondent states: "Among those saved from
the Dutch emigrant ship, the W. A. Sholten, which
was lost off Dover, in November last, was Miss Gold.
She acted with great fortitude at the time of the sink-
ing of the vessel, and begged the few English people
on board to join hands and die together. A few
days since Miss Gold was married, at Winchelsea,
Sussex, to Mr. T. Mitchell, of Van Buren, Bonaparte,
U.S. Mr. Mitchell is a farmer, and, having deter-
mined to marry, advertised for a wife in England.
Amongst those who applied was Miss Gold, and, her
portrait having been approved, she was proceeding
to America to marry the advertiser. References had
been exchanged, but neither party had seen the other.
After the catastrophe in the Channel Mr. Mitchell
journeyed to England, and, as stated above, the mar-
riage ceremony was performed at Winchelsea a fe-
days ago."

THE CRAD LEY HEA ru BOILER
EXPLIJS [ON.

The report of the preliminary iniuiry of the
Boa el of trade In,pector (Air. David (I. Watson)
into the eiroloAion of A steam boiler at the works of
.Ir. Wihiun loo,ey, mineral water manufactuier,
Tibbett's Garneus, Creeley Heath on the 18th Ne
veruber, states that tie boiler was a plain horizon-
tal cylinder, w.th flat ends. set in brickwork, and
xterualry tired. l'i,e a.:;e and make of the boiler
could not be ascertained. Mr. Foley bought it for
.f.. 8 from 3 herrip de lier in Cradley death in 1830,
and had (pal it regularly since. It was not insured,
arid no iyupection was made by person or socierl .
The eeplueim was caused by the reduction in track.
nese of the front end by corrosion until it could no
longer bear the prek•sure at which it was worked
(jOlos. per square inch) wnen it was blown out.
fue platc was grooved internally close to the rivets
by which it was attached to the angle iron ring, and
for a,bont threetif the round there was very little
metal left at the bottom of the groove, so little
indeed that it was surprising tnat the end plats had
withstood the pressure so long. Had the boiler been
inspected by a competent person previous to the
explosion the defective condition of Ow cad would
have been di.covered, and it a stay had bees fitted
at the centre between the undo when the boils r wa
made the grooving of the plate might have bee
prevent-d. Air. Thomas W. Traill, enginee sur-
veyor-in-chief, in his observations, says that flat
ends as a rule saould b 2 stayed, as defiecti in takes
place at a comparatively low pressure, and failure
must ultimately result from the continued working
of the vita. Tue owner of the boiler, he contirues,
may consider himself fortunate that no person wss
injured by the explosion.

nothing from it. Her own income will suffice for the
quiet way she intends to live this year."
"I am glad that she at least has some sense of
honesty," said Trevor, insolently; "though it is as
little as she can do, to refrain from spending money
to which another has a better right. Since you refuse
all compromise, I shall take my measures accordingly,
and I warn you that I shall exact my right to the
uttermost farthing."
"Very well; you will find us ready with our de-
fence." _ _ .

Trevor gathered up his papers, secured them in
the tin case, and, with a cool bow, took his depar-
ture.

WEST EDINBURGH-DECLARATION OF POLL.

In consequence of the interest excited by the con-
test in West Edinburgh on Saturday, both sides polled
a greater number of votes than in 1886. Throughout
the day there was abundant evidence of public excite-
vent, every effort being made by both parties to poll
their utmost strength, and the result showed that this
had been practically accomplished. The candidates
from time to time visited the polling stations, and a
number of ladies took part in the canvassing. During
the earlier part of the day the belief prevailed that the
Unionist cause would be again triumphant, and in the
afternoon posters were freely placarded bearing the
words: "Hurrah for the Union; Rayleigh wins !" to
which the Gladstonians shortly replied with the
legend, "The flowing tide is with us," at the same
time displaying the figures of the Southwark return.
There is no room for doubt that when the Unionist
placard was distributed Mr. Rayleigh possessed a
very decided advantage; but in the later hours of the
day the working men polled in large numbers, and
thus determined the issue, which was finally
announced as under:

Mr. T. R. Buchanan (Gladstonian) ... 3294
Mr. Rayleigh (Unionist) ... ... 3248
Majority ... 46
Compared with the last election the Unionist vote
glows an increase of 165 and the Gladstonian of 901
Thus the Home Rule poll has made a net gain of 736
—converting a minority of 690 into a majority of 46.
Though necessarily the representation remains in the
same hands, the election being necessitated by Mr.
Buchanan's resignation in consequence of his adoption
of Mr. Gladstone's views, it is in a party sense the gain
of a• vote to the Opposition
WEST BRISTOL.

THE THREATENED WAR.

The death of the Emperor Frederick will not (re
marks the Economist) place the direction of affairs in
Germany in any new hands. It cannot be said that
with him a rig ime has terminated. He has had no
opportunity of ruling for himself, the influence of his
judgment has been paralysed by the sense universally
entertained that his reign would be but short, and he
has not removed any of his father's greater advisers.
The new Emperor, it is understood, is devoted to
Prince Bismarck, and the great Chancellor will at first
only be a little more free to carry out his own plans.
Those plans may involve a war, but it is by no moans
certain that they will, or that the ablest of diplo-
matists may not succeed in reducing the area of the
war to unexpectedly small proportions. His own
declarations have been hitherto those of a man who
looked still towards some great compromise, and who
had a scheme in his mind which might produce evils
of its own, but would still leave the greater States free
not to make war upon each other. The present Crown
Prince is, it is true, in an unusual degree a soldier, hut
it is not soldiers who most lightly estimate either the
uncertainties or the consequences of war. As we have
repeatedly pointed out, and, so far, accurately, all
Governments are greatly impressed with the magni-
tude the next war may assume, and the very circum-
stances which bring it nearer may increase the anxiety
felt by statesmen to postpone it until conditions are
more favourable, or until it can no longer be honour-
ably avoided.

Mns. BJONES : "I hear that young Mr. Sissy is still
in search of a wife." Mrs. Jsmith : "Why, I thought
he was married ! " Mrs. Bjones : "So he was. She's
left him. She's the one he's in search of."

JEPSON: "I notice that you always speak well of
me to my face, Jobson, and while I have no reason to
believe that you do otherwise behind my back, I think
it does not harm a man to be criticised by his friends
—to be told his little faults. I know I'm not perfect,
and I would be glad to have you remind me of Um
fact sometimes." Jobson ; "Tell you of your faults ?"
Jepson: " Yes ; criticise me, tell me what your honest
private opinion of me is. That's what I want."
Jobson : "Jepson, you are six feet two, and I am five
feet four, and you want me to give you my honest
private opinion of you? No, sir. Jepson, my boy,

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

Sheep were fairly plentiful. As in the case of beasts,
business was wanting in animation, but the market was
firm and prices were well maintained. The best Downs
and half-breds realised 58 8d to 5s 10d per 81b. Lambs
were steady at 6s to 68 10d per 81b. Calves'and pigs
were quiet at late prices. The cattle trade has con-
tinued quiet, but at the same time a steadier tone has
keen apparent, the colder weather checking the desire
to sell. About the:usual number of beasts came forward
from our own grazing districts, and the quality and
condition were about the average. Although busines
has been quiet, the market has remained steady, and
full prices have been realised for choice qualities. The
best Scots and crosses were disposed of at 4s 8d to 4s 10d
per 81b. Foreign beasts were in slow demand. Values
were steady for the better qualities. Quotations:
Coarse and inferior beasts, 2s 4€l to 3s; second
quality ditto, 3s to 4s ; prime large oxen, 4s 2d
to 4s 6d ; ditto Scots, &c., 4s 8d to 4$ 10d; coarse

Lord Herschell pointing out the importance of the
work of revision of bills which came up from the other
House, and suggesting that the terms of reference

PROCLAMATION OF WILLIAM IL

The Emperor William IL has issued a Proclamation
to the Prussian people. Called to the Throne, he
says, he has assumed the Government; has vowed to
God that, after the example of his fathers, he will be
a just and clement Prince to his people; that he will
foster piety and the fear of God, that he will protect
peace, promote the welfare of the country, be a
helper of the poor and distressed, and a true guardian
of the right. Upon the fidelity of the Prussian people
his Majesty counts, with the consciousness of return-
ing it from the bottom of his heart as the faithful
Prince of a faithful people, both equally strong in
their devotion to their common Fatherland.

OCCASIONAL NOTES.

DYNAMITE IN A COLLISION.

A CAR-LOAD of dynamite, on a freight
train of the Philadelphia and Reading Rail-
road, recently exploded at Locust Gap with
terrific force, killing seven people and
wounding twenty-five persons. The freight
train had hacked into a siding to allow the
passing of a fast train going south. When
ptillincr out, some of the cars became detached,
and the train broke in two. The first par
waited for the other half to come up, whie.:
it did with unexpected violence, the con-
cussion causing the explosion. Below the
road there is a street containing one single
dwelling on the north and three double
houses on the south. Of these seven,
nothing iemained, and it was in these that
all the deaths occurred. About 100 yards
below these huildings, there was another
row of four dmilde househ, which were
demolished. Trees ne,.r the train were
uprooted, while one large tree was blown on
io the top of a freight car. None of the
;Ads were injured, although one is
said to /lave been blown a consider le dis-
tance.

A BREACH OF PROMISE CASE.

Lord Leo and a jury in the Court of Session at
Edinburgh on Tuesday, sat to try an action breught
by Miss Isabella Torrance, Loudon Mains, Loudon,
Ayrshire, against Mr. John M. Muir, of Bonnyhill,
solicitor in Kilmarnock, concluding for £lOOO as
damages for breach of promise of marriage. Mr.
James Reid, in opening the case for the pursuer, said
the promise of marriage was admitted by the defender,
and the only question for the jury to decide was what
the amount of damages should be if they were satis-
fied that defender had wrongfully failed to fulfil his
promise. In October last defender wrote to the pur-
suer explaining that he was labouring under extreme
nervous weakness, accompanied by cold sweats and
feverishness, that his body was wasting, his strength
was gone, and he could not sleep. The writer fur-
ther remarked that "There is no love between us,"
and on those grounds he asked her to break off the
marriage. Pursuer stated on the record that de-
fender was and had been attending his office daily,
and that the marriage was most cruelly and un-
warrantably broken off. He had declined to make
any reparation except the very mercenary one of
paying the value of any dresses and articles which she
had obtained for the marriage, provided the things
were given to him, and he had an opportunity of
examining the accounts. Defender stated that he had
all along been willing to make reasonable compensa-
tion to the pursuer for her disappointment. It was
further averred that in September last the pursuer
proposed to defender that the engagement should be
broken off, but she attached a condition that he should
pay her some money. After the pursuer had been
put on oath, a short adjournment was made, and on
the Court resuming, it was intimated that a settle-
ment had been effected. By Lord Lee's direction the
jury returned a verdict for the pursuer, and, awarded
her £2OO, the sum agreed upon.

THE DYING EMPEROR'S ADVICE TO HIS
DAUGHTER.

On Thursday, the day before her father's death,
the Emperor's third daughter, the Princess Sophia,
approached his bedside, anxiously concealing her
tears, lest he should ask why she wept. It was her
18th birthday, and the Emperor was fully aware of
t. He gave her a slip of paper, on which he had
written with faint characters: "Remain as noble and
good as you have been in the past. This is the last
wish of your dying father." Later the Emperor's
first tutor, it man of 88, asked with trembling lips fc;•

news of his Majesty. He was led into the bed-
chamber, but was so shocked at the Emperor's con-
dition, that he withdrew before it could be ascertained
whether the Monarch had recognised him.

FUNERAL PREPARATIONS.-CAUSE OF DEATH.

The remains of the late Emperor Frederick lay in
state at the Castle of Friedrichskron during portions
of Saturday and Sunday, and were visited by large
crowds of people. Late on Saturday afternoon a
post-mortem examination took place, Professor Vir-
chow conducting the autopsy. The examination
proves the existence of cancer, a view that Sir
Dlorell Mackenzie confirms in a report he drew up
by command of the new Emperor. All the arrange-
ments for the funeral were of a more simple character
than for the interment of the Emperor William, although
a large body of troops were ordered to take part in it. In
accordance with the wish of the deceased Emperor,
no foreign sovereigns or their representatives were to
be expected to attend. On Saturday evening a funeral
service was held in the Jasper Gallery at Friedrichs-
kron, where the body of the Emperor lay in State.
General orders to the army and navy were issued by
the Emperor William 11., in which his Imperial
Majesty, in announcing his accession, dwells upon
the need of every member of the services being pre-
pared to give his life for the honour of the German
flag.

THE MARKETS.

MARK LANE.

A quiet business was passing at Mark-lane, without
any particular change in prices. The sales of home.
grown wheat in the leading markets of England and
Wales during the first 42 weeks of the season were
2,422,646 qrs, against 1,986,843 qrs last season, at
an average ot 30s sd, against 32s lid per qr ; barley,
2,265,480 qrs against 2,421,146 qrs, at an average of
29s 3d, against 25s 7d; and oats 261,602 qrs against
338,881 qrs, at an average of 15s 1 '
od, against 17s per qr.
English wheat was purchased somewhat quietly, and
with power to sell. In foreign wheat very little was
done, and prices in buyer's favour. The flour market
was dull and drooping. American wheat 3d weaker.
Malting barley was nominally the same in value, with
very little change. Grinding was dull and rather weak.
Oats came forward freely, and sold quietly, but were
fairly steady. In maize business was quiet at previous
prices. Bean and peas were quiet and unchanged

THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BILL.

The HOUSE OF COMXONS resumed in committee the
consideration of the Local Government Bill, and a con-
siderable portion of the morning sitting was devoted to
the seventh clause, which reserved to the quarter ses-
sions the power of appointing, controlling, and dis-
missing the chief constables, and which also provided
that the powers of quarter sessions should be vested in
the quarter sessions and county council jointly, and be
exercised through a standing joint committee of the
two bodies.

Sir W. Barttelot moved an amendment in order to
place the control of the county police entirely in the
hands of the quarter sessions. Mr. Stansfeld main-
tained that it would be better to leave the police under
one authority, even if that authority were the county
council. Mr. Ritchie said the police had hitherto been
under most efficient control, and they could not at once
propose entirely to alter the existing system. On a
division the amendment was rejected by 360 to 77.
Mr. Morley moved an amendment to strike out the
words which reserved to the Quarter Sessions the
power of appointing, controlling, and dismissing the
Chief Constable. The committee divided, and the
amendment was carried by 246 to 216 amid Opposition
cheering.
Mr. Stanley Leighton moved an amendment to vest
the powers of Quarter Sessions as regards the county
police in the Home Secretary. Mr. Ritchie opposed
the amendment, which was withdrawn, and Clause 7
as amended was agreed to. Clause 8 was under dis-
cussion when the sitting was suspended.

COLONIAL STOCKS.
At the Evening Sitting Sir G. Baden-Powell called
attention to the Colonial Government Inscribed Stocks
and to their value for trust investments, and moved
that the suitability of such stocks for trust investments
should be more adequately recognised. Mr. 0. Morgan
having seconded the motion, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer admitted the soundness of the foundation
on which Colonial credit rested, but he advised the
House to pause before deciding to set aside the dis-
positions of testators with a view of authorising invest-
ments in securities over which the Imperial Parliament
bad no control. After some discussion the motion was
withdrawn.

THE REVENUE.

The receipts on account of Revenue from the Ist
April, 1888, when there was a balance of £7,647,072,
to June 16, 1888, were £17,288,948, against £17,902,624
in the corresponding period of the preceding financial
year, which began with a balance of £5,050,107.
The net expenditure was £17,309,570, against
£16,229,321 to the same date in the previous year.
The Treasury balances on June 16, 1888, amounted
to £4,012,176, and at the same date in 1887 to
£4,610,649.

A Cabinet Council was held on Saturday at the
Foreign Office at half-past twelve. The Cabinet re-
mained in consultation until two o'clock, when most of
the Ministers left for their respective offices.
The Parsee cricketers went to Windsor Castle on
Saturday afternoon, and by special permission visited
the State Apartments of the Palace, which were closed
to the general public on Saturday afternoon.
On Saturday Dr. Macdonald was informed by the
police that Frederick William Rutland, a painter, living
at Pratt's-road, Homerton, had committed suicide by
hanging himself to a bedstead at the above address on
the previous night,

A DESTITUTE MAGISTRATE.

In the Westminster County Court on Tuesday
afternoon the case of Box v. Westly came before his
Honour Judge Bayley on a judgment summons. The
claim was for £4 16s. for boots.—The plaintiff stated
that the defendant was a justice of the peace, a re-
tired lieutenant, a member of the Junior Carlton
Club, and had estates in Lancashire.—Defendant ap-
peared in person, and said all that the plaintiff had
said was true, but in spite of that he was absolutely
destitute. His property was in the market, and when
it was sold he would pay his debts as well as he
could. He had walked 16 miles to get to the court,
with nothing but a piece of dry bread. He was so
badly off that for some time past he had had to live
on dry bread and nuts. It was many weeks since he
had tasted meat. It was true that his subscriptions
at the Carlton were paid, but they were paid by his
friends. His estates were being sold, and the mort-
gagees were in possession, and they would not allow
him anything.—His Honour said upon this evidence he
should not make any order for payment.

A JOCKEY'S LIBEL ACTION.

The Lord Chief Justice and a Special Jury on
Tuesday commenced the trial in the Queen's Bench
Division of the High Court of Justice of the action
for libel brought by Charles Wood, the jockey, against
Mr. W. H. Cox, for imputing to him that he had un-
fairly ridden Success at Lewes and Alexandra-park
Races. Three jockeys—Thomas Weldon, William
Robinson, and Alfred White—gave evidence, deny-
ing having seen Wood pull horses to prevent
them winning. They said charges of pulling
were made against most jockeys by persons
attending racecourses. In cross-examination it was
elicited that it was the practice of jockeys to bet,
but not against the horses they rode. White was
pressed so closc ly to state the extent of his betting
that counsel for the plaintiff protested against it, and
the applause which his remarks as to the presence of
members of the Jockey Club led to a demonstrat'oi,
which brought a stern rebuke from the Bench. The
trial was adjourned at the rising of the Court.

MR. STANLEY.

There is no foundation whatever (says a Brussels
despatch) for a statement made by the Paris Gaulois
that the King of the Belgians had received official in-
telligence of the death of Mr. H. M. Stanley.
The Paris Journal des Debats has received intelli-
gence from Zanzibar stating that there appears to be
little doubt that Mr. Stanley is dead. The families of
the porters -who accompanied the expedition have
now worn mourning for several weeks. It is asserted
that Tippoo Tib is responsible for the alleged catas-
trophe, he having cherished feelings of revenge against
Mr. Stanley, who formerly interfered with the traffic
in slaves carried on by the chief.

ROWLEY REGIS.

TIIII BoUNDIIIIILB QUESTION. The IllOuthly
niz,eting of the Rowley Regis Local Boafd wa4 held
on Monday evening at the Public Offices. Old Hill
Mr. W. Thssano. J.P., presiding —Mr. Whitehouse
alled the attention of the Bo ird to the fact that
ithe Oldbury Local Board had determined upon
Lakin g steps to endeavour to secure a ptriion of
rividale. He certumly considerel that it wort' Ibe
very unfair if, under the Boundaries Act, the best
portion of Tividale was transferred to Oldbury, an i
.he worthless part of it allowed to remain in the
parish of Rowlt.y.—The Chairman said he did not
think the Board had much t,i trouble about, as they
had Lot as yet been consultsa as to any proposed
iiv:sion of the pari-h. Before any olt,r..tion did
,ake place that Board would be consulted. Mr.
Wailes : Oldbury is already trying t. gel; a vrtion
