YEARS AGo.-GeorSc Dawson was arrested
yesterday by Sergeant Jay, charged with
having, in connection with two other men,
shot and killed man by the name Of John

from the evidence before the magistrate that
three men entered Weiss saloon, asked for
and received drinks, and refused to pay for
them. They left the room while Weis was
insisting OH their paying, and on his going to
the door one of the party drew a revolver
and shot him. The men Immediately left the
city, and had not been seen or heard from
since until yesterday, when Dawson, who
had only been in the city for a short time,
was recognized ssSoficer Paff as the party

PROTESTANT ECUMENIcAL CoUNcILs.-The
Methodist refers to "Pan-Presbyter
Council" and says:
"The Presbyterians have robbed us of our
pet idea. We have, it continues, advocated
these several years the assembling of an Ecl.-
menic;l Council Of Methodists, and have
found no second, and now the English
speaking Presbyterlans are calling for just
such a gathering Of the members of their
faith. Singulmly enough, the proposition
comes from the other side of the water, and
from no less n parsonage than Professor
Blaikie, Of Edinburgh"

GOVERNOR PARKER AND THE New JERSEY
RAILROAD LEAsE.--Concerning the lease ofthe
works of the united companies of New Jer-
scy to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
Governor Parker in his message to the New
Jersey Legislature says:
During the year the most valuable and
extensive railway properties existing in New
Jersey, those of the joint companies, have
been leased to the Pennsylvania Railway
Company. The State having by legislation
given it's consent to such lease being effect
ed. no opinion nor action as to the policy of
the lease became necessary or pertinent upon
the part Of its officers. / deem it Of i'm
mensc value to the State that its right of re-
demption in the great properties leased
shall in no manner be lessened. Whilst we
should not at any time favor the conduct of
the affairs of private corporations by State
officials, we ought not to lessen our posses
sion of q right that in time will have mar
ketablc value worth millions"
