Mr.. Kelley opposed the amendment as one which
would facilitate the commission OF frauds, and he

Mr.. Logan resented the pretensons of the gentle
man from Pennsylvania (Mr. Kelley to represent

was no desire on the part OF any man in Inois to

A Fortune Teller's Trials,

The good people of Bridgeport have for
some days been excited over the case of a
tollune-teller OF medium, or something of the
Solt, by the name of Lottie Fowler, who had
among her customers a dozen girls employed
IN the works of the Union Metallic Cartridge
Company. Her fees were 81 She told one
Of these girls that the building, attached to
The factory, where the illuminate was prepar-
ed, would blow up, within four days, and
that one person would be hurt--or killed
We don't know which. This frightened the
girls employed there, and they did not return
Ia the shop. Superintendent Hobbs, enrag-
"d at the tortune-teller sent policemen to
Brighten her out of town as an impostor, and
to demand the repayment of the fees she had
received from the girls. She paid back the
money; and the explosion actually occurred,

EXCITING CHASE OF A Horse BY A LOCOMO-
TIVE. The Montgomery, n. Y. Standard
gives the following particulars of an exciting
chase OF trotting horse over the Waikiki
Valley Railroad:
Last Wednesday morning, when the train
from Gardiner approached Lackey's bridge,
the engineer, in coming around the curve on
the down grade towards the bridge, saw a
horse on the track, which, owing to the high
embankment, he knew could not get out of
the way. The animal, which belonged to
Mr.. John Titus, whose residence is near by,
and which was once Il celebrated trotter, be-
coming frightened started to run towards
the bridge, and it was then the engineer saw
the importance of the step which he was
about to take Knowing that he could not
stop the train, it became race for life, as to
which would reach the bridge first.
If the horse arrived before the engine it
was almost sure to throw it from the track,
perhaps down the abyss below, together
with the whole train Of passenger coaches,
sacrificing every life on board He threw
the throttle valve all the way open, and
dashed down the grade at the rate of fifty
miles an hour. On plunged the horse and
on came the ponderous laundering machine
with a dcafening roar, behind. Half the
distance mad been traversed and the horse
vas within few feet of the stone work
Every pound of steam was forced into the
cylinder, and the engine gave one mighty
lunge, striking the animal on the right hip
throwing him high into the air, clear from
the stones below, where he fell with his head
turEed partly under him, never once stirring
after he struck.

THE MORAL OF THE VERDICT. After a
careful perusal of the evidence the arguments
and the Judges charge to the jury, we regard
the verdict in the late trial of Edward H.
Hoswell with profound satisfaction. It is
not merely that this individual felon, this
brutal husband, this self-constituted guardian
Of the marriage-bed he had forsaken, is to
suffer the lawful penalty for his crime. This
is much, but it is more to have removed from
the honored institution of jury trials, the
stigma that has rested upon it since the
shameless perjury of the juries that acquitted
SickIes, Cole and Mcfarland. 1t was a
question of great moment to every citizen of
Maine-further, to every citizen of America
whether there were yet community where
Jury could be empannelled Of sufficient in
tegrily 10 render in a case of this kind, q
verdict in accordance with the law and the
evidence, as every Jury is solemnly sworn to
do. The question is now answered, and we
congratulate all lovers of justice, honor and
truth, on the result. The metropolitan virus
has not yet reached us. Here at least law is
still supreme. Maine Farmer.

Till all the sea seemed bound in spell,
And silence sounded like knell.

Told seventh day,
And dawn grew clear-in sudden flights.

Stock raising is with the Indians the first
step towards civilization. When Governor
McCook first proposed to give cattle to the
Utes it was on condition that they should not
kill the cattle faster than they increased TO
this the Indians demurred, declaring that if
they could not kill them as fast and when
they desired they did not want them at all.
OF course this was not conceded, but the
stock was driven to them and placed under
the care OF American herders. During the
first eight months the stock increased eighty
per cent. There were in the lot some seven
ty cows, which being below grade the gov
ernor offered to them for beef Seeing how
rapidly they increased the Indians refused to
permit even these to be killed. In short,
they seem to have made the discovery that
by the increase of their focks and herds they
will be able to live when the game, hitherto
their reliance for subsistence, is gone

NICE LITTLE Bit OF GOSSIP is going the

that night, and she made up her mind to say

to wear the costume of Mary Stuart, at the
masquerade. This was all very delightful,
but unfortunately the two ladies met Nh
BIS name was mentioned, and in two min
utes there was a grand explanation. Both
ladies resolved to punish him. The mas
querade night came. MI b. found Mary
Stuart and was devoted to her, but she was
cold. He asked the cause. She told him
she had just heard of his engagement to
Miss A., whereupon he denied it, made de-
cided fun of Miss A., and begged his charm
er to come in the conservatory tor a quiet
talk and unmask. She consented, and I'M

A CURIOUS STORY. A late number of the
Commercial Advertiser of Honolulu relates
the fact that one Of the whale ships in that
harbor recently captured whale in the Are
tic seas, which had in its carcass a harpoon
This harpoon was known to belong to a ship
which was at that time cruising in the north
ern seas, on the other side of the continent
The whale had evidently passed from one
open sea to the other, by way of the pole.
He must have found open water, for even a
whale must come up at short intervals to
blow. 1t is certain that the Polar sea is nay
igable for whales from one side of the CONT
nent to the other. But while il does not fol-
low that ships would follow the same track,
the fact cited is one of considerable interest.
Shipmasters may be able to navigate the Po-
lar sea when they know as much about navi-

STANTON. DEAD.

The telegraph and the evening press oil
Friday announced the death of EDWIN M.
STANTON, which took place at Washington
that morning. The day previous it was
announced that he had been appointed an
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.
Truly great and earnest man has pas

our reders. He bad many noble and com
manding attributes and his death came at
a time when he was fully prepared to d"
justice to his country, in the position to
which he had been lately appointed, and
at the same time live with less labor and
turmoil than had Of late characterized his
life.
He was born in Stcubcnville, Ohio, about

legal career lie continued to practice in
Ohio uutill 1917, when he removed to
Pittsburgh, where he was associated, in
several important cases. In the winter OF
1878, MIR. Stanton was selected by Pres,

case connected with Mexican grants, gain
ing thereby, a national reputation In
1858 he began practice in the Supreme
