A dispatch from Green Bay says g: At
a German ball in Oconto, Wis, on Mon
day night, May goth, row occurred, in
which German butcher, named Nier,
drew revolver and fired twice into a
crowd, shooting young man named
j. Ruell in the head. The crowd dis
armed Nier, when he drew butcher
knife, and cut another man badly in
both arms. The crowd then took Nier,
and were going to lynch him, and had
got as far as putting the rope on his
neck, when the officers came to his res
cue and took him to Jail. The young
man Ruell who was shot died at s
o'clock the next morning. There was
great excitement in town all day over
the affair, and several attempts were
made to break down the wooden JAIL
which were prevented by the officers.
The mob went for reinforcements, and
at half-past s returned, overpowered
the officers, and with a big beam
smashed the Jail down, took Nier and
hung him to tree about eighty rods
from the Jail, right in the village.
Nier was a desperate character, and
shot man in Green Bay about year
ago. The lynchers were all mill-men,
the citizens taking no part. All is now
quiet.

The Philosophers Stone.

The eccentric, but brilliant, John
Randolph once rose suddenly up in his
seat in the House of Representatives
and screamed out at the top of his
shrill voice: Mr.. Speaker Mr.. Speak
er l have discovered the philosophers
stone. 1t is-Pay as you gor' John
Randolph dropped many rich gems
from his mouth, but never a richer one
than that. "Pay as you co." and you
need not dodge sheriffs and constables.
" Pay as you CO." and you can walk the
streets with an erect back and manly
front, and have no fear of those you
meet. You can look any many in the
eye without fiinching. You won't have
to cross the street to avoid dun, or
look intently in shop window in order
not to see creditor. Pay as you CO."
and you can snap you finger at the
world, and when you laugh it will be a
hearty, honest one, and not like the
lau-h of the poor debtor, who looks
around as though he was in doubt
whether the laugh was not the property
of his creditors, and not included in
articles exempt from attachment"
" Pay as you CO." and you will meet
smiling faces at home-happy, cherry
checked, smiling children-a contented
wife-a cheerful hearth stone John
Randolph was right. It is the philos-
opher's stone.

The PittstOn Coal Mine Disaster.

A special dispatch from Pittston says
the coroner's jury in the case of the re
cent disaster at the West Pittston mine,
worked by Blake & Co., rendered a YER
dict on the 3lst ult. After detailing
the facts in the case, the jury declare
that the miners met their death from
improper ventilation of the mine that
when the breaker took fire there was no
means of supplying men with fresh air,
and that the means of ventilation were
not such as are required by the act of
Congress of March 80, 1870. The jury
furthermore find there was negligence
on the part of the employees of the
company in not keeping portions of the
machinery properly oiled and further,
that the company had employed on the
day of the accident a greater number of
men than the act already referred to
warrants. The verdict finds further,
that Thomas w. Williams, inspector OF
the mines, knew of these violations Of
the law, but did not protest against
them, and that he failed in his duty in
not applying to the courts for an in
junction against the operators.

A PififmI Condition.

1t is sad thing to pass through life only half alive
Yet there are thousands whose habitual condition is
one of languor and debility. They complain of no
specific disease; they suffer positive pain but they
have no relish for anything which affords mental or
sensuous pleasure to their robust and energetic
fellow-beings.
In nine out of ten this state of assitude and
torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indigestion
destroys the energy of both mind and body. When
the waste of nature is not supplied by due and regu
lar assimilation of the food every organ is starved,
every function interrupted.
Now, what does common sense suggest under these
circumstances of depression? The system needs
ing and strengthening; not merely for hour two.
to sink afterward into pitiabe condition than
ever las it assuredly would do if ordinary stimu-
liant were resorted to- but radically and permanently
How is this desirable object to be accomplished !?
The answer to this question: founded the unvary-
ing experience of quarter of century is easily
given. Infuse vgor into the digestive organs by
a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Do not
waste time in administering temporary remedies but
of physical strength and energ the great organ upon
which all the other organs deend for their nurture
and support.
By the time that dozen dose of the great vegetable

Important Decision Liability of
Express COmpanieS.

In the United States circuit court OF
the Fifth circuit and Southern district of
Alabama, during the April term OF this
year. the case of Newton ST. John VS.,
the Southern Express company was
given to a jury, who rendered verdict
for defendants. The points in the case
are these: Plaintiff, a merchant in
Mobile, forwarded by the Southern
Express company on the Goth day of
May, 1866, the sum of $4,000, to be
delivered to one J. B. Alexander, resi-
dent of New York city. For this he
paid the ordinary charge of % cents for
letters in stamped government envel-
opes, thus leading the employees of the
Southern Express company, into the
belief that it was but an ordinary bust
ness letter, having no declared value.
The letter was carried by the Southern
Express company to Lynchburg, Va,
and was then transferred to the custody
and care of the Adams Express COM
pany, to be by it delivered to the person
addressed in New York. The delivery
clerk of this latter company, instead of
that usually characterized him, suspect
ing the letter to contain valuable con-
tents, opened it and filched the $1,000,
which he found in bills of large demon
nations. Complaint reaching the Adams
company by the non-delivery of the
letter for Alexander, they set inquiries
on foot, and ascertaining the delinquen-
cy of their clerk, had him arrested and
secured the greater part of the stolen
funds. A failure to deliver the package
to Alexander was considered good
grounds for suit by st. John, who came
upon the Southern Express company.
Judge Wood delivered the decision of
the court at great length, during which
he laid particular stress upon a prOvl-
sion in the Southern Express companys
receipts for money packages, which
says " that this company is to forward
the same to its agent nearest or most
convenient to destination only, and
then to deliver the same to other par
ties, they to complete the transporta-
ton, such delivery to terminate all
liability of this company for such pack
ages" But this was only one point !;
there were others, but the princi pal one
was that alluded to above, where the
plaintiff in order to save expense, for
warded the money in a letter sealed in
the ordinary way, and not in large
envelope sealed at each corner and in
the centre with sealing-way, and having
on the upper side not only the direction
but the precise value of the contents.
This should prove warning to mer-
chants and business men, who cannot
hope to be protected by express compa-
MES, except by strict compliance with
the rules which experience teaches are
necessary for the safe conduct of a bust
ness that is now a necessity for our
civilization.

A Horrible Spectacle.

A most revolving sight occurred, on
the 3lst ult., in Paris, on the plaza in
front of the Hotel de Vile. Thirty
three Communists, among whom were
seven women, were shot in a body by a
company of soldiers. Around three
sides of the square troops to the num-
Der of 1900 were drawn up, under COM
mand of Col. Guizot. At o'clock the
prisoners, who had been confined in a
coal cellar back of the porter's lodge in
the Hotel de Vile, were brought out.
Their hands were tied behind their
backs, and they were then marched out
by the main gateway through a double
file of soldiers, and, having reached the
center of wide area in front of the
hotel, were ranged in row and made
to kneel down close together. There
was nothing on the whole plaza but
three empty scavenger carts, which
stood in line at the rear OF the prison
ers. When the company was in line
and ready to fire, Col. Guizot stepped
forward and told the prisoners in few
words that they were to suffer death for
having been caught in the act of set
ting fire to buildings and dwellings in
ssIlo. az 9ilio uloilSu1 the women Ut
tered piercing shrek, and began to
sway themselves back and forth. An
officer advanced and made them keep
still with the fat of his sword. A few
moments afterward volley was fired,
and when the smoke cleared away the
most horrible sight was presented.
Three OF the women, who were in the
middle of the row, between the men,
were still living and writhing in awful
agony. A second volley was fired, and
third, and not until the sixth did all
the prisoners cease to live. The dead
bodies were then flung into three
scavenger carts and carried away to be
buried.
