BURIED ALIvE.-A colored brother,
whose name we did not learn, had a
narrow escape yesterday. He was ex.
cavating sand from the rear of the va.
cant lot on Main street, at the head Of
Union, opposite Harpers hat store
when the bank caved in on him, bury
ing him as deep as the armpits. He
was hardly got out before another por'
ton caved in which would have covered
him completely. 1t is most too early
vet for black burying parties, and we
think this chap was crowding the
season.

yesterday a young man named Pat
Malloy, who had been at work at the
Belmont Mill, but who had been dis
charged, went to the mill and challeng-
ed Faggie Murray to fight him. The two
went out on the river bank, where Muir
ray whipped him, soundly. Not satisfied
with his beating, Malloy followed Muir
ray into the mill and again attacked
him, where he was again whipped.
James Farrell then attempted to put
Malloy out, when he was attacked by
Ed. Hopkins and Malloy. Officer Reed
here made his appearance on the scene
and arrested Malloy and took him to the
lookup.
Farrell went before Squire Clohan and
obtained a warrant fol, the arrest of Hop
kins on a charge Of assault and battery.
Hopkins was taken by officer Reed, be-
fore the Justice. who held him in the
sum of $400 to answer the charge be-
fore the Circuit Court. Failing to give
the bail he was committed to Jail.

Thomas Burke, who used abusive Ian
guage to her-threatening to smack

port of the Commissioners OF the Sink.

the commissioners, it is now but 500,
500. In two years it will be wiped out.

POLICE CoURr.-The gathering of the
clans Galoots, Fusileers and Benzinists,
in the police court yesterday, was gor-
geous in TIT: extreme and presented al
most every phase Of plain and orna-
mental drunk.
John Landmesser was engaged on
Saturday last in the delightful and gen.
tlemanly occupation Of calling his vile
vulgar and BLACKBOARD names, to her
satisfaction, and the edification Of the
neighborhood. He was fined $500 and
costs, or twenty days.
Alfred LIE Shaw has been on his
good behavior for so long that we had
scratched his name from the regular
roll of fusileers, but on Saturday he ap'
piled for readmission to that glorious
band by getting happily drunk, and roll
ling over Clay street. 81 and cost, or
ten days.
Adam Coleman was so drunk on Sat
urday night that he stopped over; this
on the corner of Zane and Seventh
streets. 81 and costs or ten days.
James Templeton is another who has
been missed from roll call for a long
time. Sunday night, though, was. too
many for him, and he fell from grace
and from thepavement on Biddle street.
81 and costs or ten days.
VIM. Stephenson was scraped up out
of gutter on Saturday night decidedly
drunk. 81 and costs was the costivity.
Samuel Speidel was guilty Of disor-
derby conduct in the Eighth ward on the
lst of April. He was not not tried
till yesterday, 81 and costs.
Mary Jones is the sweet name of the
seraphic creature found about o'clock
Sunday afternoon, on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, demonstrating the right
of a woman to get drunk if she wants
to. She was too i'll to get out of her
downy couch in the cell OF the Gala
boose. She was fined 81 and cost or
ten days, all the same.
John Foster was picked up Saturday
night, between II and IL o'clock, on
Water street, melodiously but plainly
drunk. 81 and cost or ten days.
JohnWilson, a little, old, weazen-faced
dried-up specimen Of man, who parts
his hair in the middle, having the part
about four inches wide. John has
been up several times before for the
same offense as this time, indecency in
the Market house. He was fined 81
and costs or ten days, and judgment
suspended on condition of his leaving
the city in fifteen minutes. Another
name added to the list of banished mar
tyrs.
John McDermott was guilty Of dis.
orly conduct in North Wheeling on
Saturday last. He got as mad as a
halter about a pig pen Of which he
claimed to be the proprietor, and abused
everybody in reach. SO and costs was
the price Of it.

CLOSE CoLLECTIoNs.-The return Of

made by ex,Sheriff Campbell to the

a showing Of close collection of taxes
unequalled in the history Of this State.
The total amount on the tax duplicate
for Ohio county was s245,0O0. Of this
all but 1921 was collected; making a
fraction less than one-haif of one per
cent. unoollected. The ASYLUM tax
was 1892. All Of this was collected
except sl9.34. Mr.. Campbell has rea-
son to be proud OF his record. We
doubt if his work has been excelled in

THE GRAND RUSH YESTERDAY.
Emsheimer & Blum's Store
Besieged by the Ladies,

The announcement that Emsheimer
Il Blum had determined to commence
the slaughter on prices, yesterday, and
would bring everything down to the
lowest notch had the effect of drawing
to that store an immense throng OF
ladies who were astonished to find how
much lower goods can be sold than
they had any idea Of
The fact that this house is selling
lower than goods can be bought for at
auction, and that purchasers get better
goods for less money has spread like
wildfire, and the prospect is that the
crowd will be larger to-day than yes
terday.
A young army of clerks and sales
men were necessary to wait upon the
customers, and the rolling up. OF goods
sending off packages, showing beautiful
silks, alpacas, Nilsson dress goods
shawls, calicos, and the thousand other
staple and durable articles to be found
in this house, made the place look like
beehive.
Ladies will certainly not 60 to auc
ton to buy goods where they are com
PEELED to crowd and push among lo'
of men when they can get better goods
at Emsheimer & Blum's, and have ar
opportunity Of examining what they
purchase.
Ladies, 60 this morning early and
see how the tricks of the trade have
been played out by this firm, who are
noted for their honesty and fair deal
ings.

DR.. JOIN 4. HEYER


The man thet never changes his pol
itics, i" defended the right of the South
ern States during the whole period OF
the war, and since the war, TO secede
at pleasure; and will tell any Democrat
now who will take the pains to ask
him, that he holds the same doctrine
yet. He is opposed to negro freedom,
and would Immediately reenslave the
blacks if he had the power. He was
very much incensed at Union Soldiers
who volunteered from hisow immedi-
ate neighborhood, and hoped they
might have their heads blown off by
cannon balls.
He prides himself greatly on his ana
cient nullifcation and secession princi-
pies, and tauntingly calls on his neigh
bors to ''look at him and they will see
a secessionist." Claims that the peO-
pie have endorsed him once, knowing
that he held these principles, and that
they will of course do it again.
Can it be possible that DR.. Weyer is
a tolerable representative of the De-
mocracy of Belmont County? 1t would
be hard to think SO, or that he fairly
represented the views of fifty Demo-
Gratis in the county. Yet he has the ef-
frontery to claim that the Democrats
selected him once, knowing that he
held these most despicable principles,
of fnull fication. and secession, and thus
endorsed fully his political views, and
conduct towards Union Soldiers who
volunteered to fight against his seces-
sion friends.
Have the Democracy no truer repre-
tentative of their principles to send to
the Legislature? Ponder this question
well before voting.
