The New Baby Washer.

The Pail Mall Gazette is Il firm be-
lever in the story that an invention is
ready for parents which acts as fol-
lows: You simply insert the begrim-
med and molasses-colored infant in an
oritice, which can be made of any re.
CURED size by turning for ten minutes
a cog-wheel with electric attachments.
The child glides gently down II highly
polished inclined plane; his lips are
met at its terminus by an lhdia-rub-
Der tube, from which the infant can
draw Tactical nourshment. While In
this compartment, which is lined with
plate-glass mirrors, the perturhed spirit
of the infant is soothed by its frantic eff
forts to demOlish its own image, re-
fiected in the glass with a nickcl-plated
combined teeth-cutter, nail-knife, rat
tie, and tack-hammer, which are
thrust into the baby's hand by an au-
tomato monkey. Fatigued by its de-
structive efforts, the infant falls asleep,
while the organ attachment plays soft
" the melody of "Put Me in My Little
Bed Then it slips into the third
compartment. Here the baby is
washed. Another small tube admins
listers Il dose of soothing syrup, and the
infant glides from the machine, its
nails pared, its hair combed, ready for
the liabiliments rendered necessary by
the fall of our first parents.

Certainly it would. I'D better do
it, hadn't I--hey?''
"Just as you think proper" said
Summers.
So the man ran up two more rods,
and then he came down and said TO
Summers
There, that's done; now let's set
tie up"
"Do what?''
"Why, the jobs finished, and now
I'll take my money!
"You don't expect me to pay you,
/ hope?"
"Of course / do. Didn't you tell
me to put those rods on your house?"
.tMy house," shouted Summers.
"Thunder and lightning! / never
ordered you to put those rods up. 1t
would have been ridiculous. Why,
man, this is the Court House, and
I'm here waiting for court TO assem-
bic. I'm on the jury. You seemed
TO be anxious to rush out yonr rods,
and, as it WIS none Of my business, /
let you go on. Pay for it! Come,
now, that's pretty good.
The Blossburg people say that the
manner in which that lightniDg-rod
man tore around town and swore,
was fearful. But, when he got his
rods Off the Court House, he left per-
manently. He doesn't fancy the

Up in Blossburg, the other day, a
lightning-rod man drove mp in front
OF handsome edifice standing in
the midst of trees and shrubs, and
spoke 10 Mr.. Summers, who was sit
ting on the steps in front. lie ac-
costed Summers, as the owner of the
residence, and said:
81 see you have no lightning-rods
on this house"
"No,v said Summers.
"Are you going to put any on?"
swell 1 hadn't thought OF it," re-
piled Summers.
"You ought to. A tall building
like this is very much exposed. I'd
like to run up one of my rods; twist
ed steel, glass tenders, nickle-piated
tips; everything complete. May /
put up one to show you? I'll do the
job cheap.
Certainly you may If you want to.
l haven't the slightest objection"
said Summers.
During the next half hour the man
had his ladders up and his assistants
Mt work; and at the end Of that time
the job was done. He called Sum
mers out into the yard to admire it,.
He said to Summers:
"Now, that is all we'll enough !;
but, III II was nty house, I'd have an-
other rod put on the other side.

"That's true" said Summers, "it

"I'll put up another-shall ?"
asked the man.
"Why Of course, II you think it's

Accordingly the man went to
work again, and soon had the rod in

3. When the compensation has
been paid on drafts, held over as
above stated, with or without an un-
derstanding between the drawer and
holder, IN that public money!
4. Will the same acts. whicfi
would constitute embezzlement III
done by the Treasurer constitute en-
bezzlement If done by the Deputy.
In answer to the FIRST question,
Judge Maxwell directed, that the
District Attorney, in attending upon
the Grand Jury, and in aiding them
In their labors, was their legal adj
wiser, and that it was their dnty to
take his advice on questions Of law;
and, not being lawyers themselves,
they must not set up their opinions
ON questions of law In opposition to
his. They were also instructed that
they could come into court at reason
able times, and receive further in
structions on questions OF law from
the court.
In answer 10 the first part or the
second question, the court said such a
transaction would be held in law a.
equivalent TO the loan OF the public
money; that this opinion was given
subject 70 any change or different
conclusion that might be arrived at
on the trial OF ease. provided the
Grand Jury should indict any one.
In answer to the second part Of
the second question, the Court said,
there may be doubts about IT; that
the treasurer Is not allowed 10 make
any such use Of the public money,
but If he does 50 and receive COM
Densatton therefor from the banker,
or Interest thereon called a bonus, he
being the agent Of the State 1t would
not be his money; and If not public
money the Court did not know what
it would be. The Judge said he did
not wish to cay more on this point
than that the defaIcations Of treasur-
ers were now contributing largely TO
the ruin Of our country, and that
grand juries ought not to stand in
the door Of investigation of such
transactions.
The Judge said that an answer to
the third question was given above.
In answer to the fourth question,
the Court said, ii II his opinion now,
without further investigation, that
what would be eubezzlemeut on the
part Of the treasurer, would also on
the part of his deputy; that there
may be some doubt about this, and
this opinion is given subject 10 being
changed, or different conclusion ar
rived at on the trial, II the Grand
Jury should indict.
The above was all thespecial charge
given to the jury. No name Of any
one was mentioned, and the court
did not know what deputy was
meant.
RE-ISpICTMEST or RANKIN.
The jury returned six indictments
against Major Rankin, all for alleged
embezzlement Of money belonging
to the State Agricultural College.
The old Indictment for embeZzIe-
ment of State money was unani-
inously dismissed.

About midnight on Wednesday Freeholder
Charles r. Ruh Councilman Fritz A. Meyer and
Street Commissioner Hansen were walking on
Union street. on Union Hill. when they were nred
on by some person who lay In ambush. The rufian
escaped. and q search was made throughout the
neighborhood, but without success. Several
friends OF these gentlemen secured the
whole vicinity yesterday morning at an
early hour, and. from information obtained
by them, the three gentlemen appeared before
Recorder Morgan and had o warrant issued Tor
the arrest OF one John Mulvihill on the charge OF
attempted murder. Constable Brown started In
pursuit, caught Mulvihil and lodged him In the
statement in regard 10 the case except to declare
his innocence. His place 0fresdence was searched,
but there were no firearms found, nor were any
lounu on his person.
There are two causes assigned for the act The
frss Is that Mr.. Rub had Mulvhll arrested some
time since for being drunk and disordery Null
vihill was heard TO make threats that ne Wonld
second cause is that Mr.. Ruh, by his unsiring
activity In the Board OF Chosen Freeholders, nad
committee Of Investigation appointed TO uhken-
mel the corruption mat existed In connection
with the administration OF the Affairs Of HUDSON
county. The investigation encited frauds that had
been IN existence for years, and that were posi-.
lively startling In their character. the frauds
were brought to the attention OF the Grand Jury,
who visited them with severe presentment,
Mr.. Ruh's name has since been q source OF terror
TO corruptlOnists.
