MILK, Ten CENTS A QUART. Milk men
are just now bold enough to ask ten cents
a quart, and not unfrequently fifteen
cents for anything like good article,
for milk-winter prices. 1t seems as
though the sunny skies and refreshing
showers of this fine growing season. do
not move their hearts particle. We
have no doubt but there is cOmbina,
ton to keep up the price of milk in order
that milk men may make more money,
for now no excuse of "high price of feed
or depreciation of the currency" is
worth row of pins

SKELETON FOUND.-In excavating the
ground upon which the old Washington
Hall stood in Steubenville the other day.
the workmen dug mp skeleton OF q hui
man being. From the size of the skele-
ton it was evidently that of boy OF
fifteen years Of age. The bones had been
covered with lime, and were only in a
tolerable state of preservation, being
much decayed. How the skeleton came
to be depositeikin the cellar of the hotel
is not known; in fact the whole thing is
amystery which will probably never be
anravelled.

OUR long absent soldiers are soon to

furloughs- good long ones, and plenty OF
them. They used to think the allow
auce rather scanty when they were re-
stricted to ten per cent. of the men, and
each only for ten days Half million
men are soon to go to their homes. 1t is
pleasant to think of the meetings and
greetings of husbands and wives, OF
fathers and children, of brothers and sis
tiers, of soldier boys and sweethearts-
What crying and kissing there will be;
what marrying and giving in marriage
will enter into the history of the coming
summer!

ARRESTED James Graham, charged
with having robbed the hotel OF Adam
Blnm of about thirteen or fourteen hum
dred dollars. was yesterday brought to
this city from Cincinnati and lodged in
Jail, after having mad a preliminary ex-
animation before Alderman McManaway.
1t seems that after Graham had robbed
the house he stepped into barber shop
near by and had his moustache shaved
off; went down to the river and gave
boy a silver quarter dollar for taking
him across the stream: waited the ram
on the Cleveland and Pittsburg Railroad
and went to Bellair, and from there he
was traced to Cincinnati Soon after
the robbery was committed, the police
authorities here telegraphed the police
of Pittsbmg to be on the lookout for the
rogue. A full description of the fugitive
was also telegraphed to that city From
the description given, Samuel Long, Esq,
Chief of Police of Pittsburg, recognized
a former citizen of Allegheny City, and
apprized our authorities of the fact
Mr.. Blum went to Pittsburg, and after
conference with Mr.. Long it was agreed
that he should 90 in pursuit of the thief.
II WAS soon ascertained that Graham had
gone to Cincinnati, and Mr.. Long hasten
ed after him. When Mr.. L. reached Gin
cinnati, he made known the object OF
his visit to the Chief of Police Of that
city, and after two days vigilant search
ing Graham was overhauled and made
a prisoner. He refused to tell where ne
had been stopping, but upon enquiry 1t
was found that he and his wife had been
stopping at the United States hotel
Four hundred and seventy-five dollars OF
the stolen money was recovered, and
the prisoner brought to this city,
1t seems from letters found In Mrs.
Graham's trunk that she had been re-
quested by her husband to leave Allie
gheny City and go to Cincinnati; which
she did OH Monday morning last. The
letter was signed James Hayes" and
the wife was instructed to 60 to the
United States hotel aud ask for her hus-
band under that name.
The money stolen from Mr.. Blum
amounted to between thirteen and four
teen hundred dollars: six hundred in
gold, two hundred in silver, and between
five and six hundred in Wheeling paper.
In Cincinnati Graham exchanged the
Wheeling money for greenbacks. 1t is
unknown what he did with the stolen
money that has not been recovered, bnt
it is thought he hid it before being ar
rested.
Graham is said to have borne a very
bad character before this transaction,
and was only few years since released
from five years term in the Allegheny
Penitentiary, in which Institution he
had been confined for incendiarism He
is about twenty seven years of age, ana
rather prepossessing in appearance, His
wife is said to be an excellent lady, and
it is thought she never knew the faults
of her husband, whom she married but a
short time ago while he was in Chicago.
The case will have further hearing
today, when further developments may
be made
