The Tilton-Beecher trial at Brooklyn is
still the sensation of the day. Frank
Moulton has been put through as
thorough, searching and sharp cross
examination as any witness was probably
ever subjected to, and has maintained his
story as told in his celebrated state
ments % with an astonishing pertinacity.
All attempts to worry or upset the wit
ness, 80 that he might lose his self-pos-
session or contradict himself, failed COM
pletely.
THE Grand Chief of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, without any
suggestions from railway managers. has
given notice to some of the members of
that order who spend their time between
their runs in carousing and drinking,
that they viii be expelled from the order.
This new movement on the part of the
Brotherhood is certainly most COM
mendable one, and will be appreciated
not only by the railway companies, but by
the travelling public. Sleeping engineers
must out. An association whose mem
bers have the lives of the public in their
hands has no use for such men.
A WASHINGTON correspondent states
that the Ways and Means Committee of
the House are seriously considering the
propriety of reporting a law for the pur-
pose of breaking down the lobby. It Is
proposed to recognize attorneys before
committees to urge legislation, these per
sons to file a statement of retainers and
contingent fees, and no sums except
those set forth can be collected. IF the
Ways and Means or any other commit
tee succeed in devising a law that will
break up the lobby, or seriously inter
fere with their corrupt Vaccinations,
they will merit the eternal gratitude of
the honest portion of the country.
THE Chicago Times prints letter
from DIR. Heise, chief physician of the
Illinois Penitentiary, on the best modes
of punishment for convicts. He pro
nounces decidedly against the barbarities
practiced for so many years upon the
convicts, holding that the application of
the lash, the cold bath and the ringbolt
are degrading in their tendency and do
not assist in preserving order. They ex-
asperate the prisoner, while they do not
subdue his rebellious spirit. DR.. Heise
thinks that humanity should be combined
with the rigid enforcement of order, and
recommends as punishment for infraetion
of discipline confinement in q solitary
cell and reduction in the diet of the re-
calcitrant convicts.

Death in the San Gabriel Range.

We dislike to 60 away from home

from the Denver Colorado Nc,cs looks
like it:
A letter from Fort Mohave, Arizona
says that news had Just reached that
post to the effect that G. A Joy, me-
teorologist in Lieutenant Wheeler's
exploring party, died from thirst and
exhaustion while making the ascent
of peak in the. mountains South of
the old San Gabriel mission, Califor-
MIA. J. Hasson, son or DR.. Hasson,
Fort Trumbull, and G.. Thompson, of
Lieut.. Bergland's party, very nearly
met with a similar fate Willie ascend
ing Cucumongo, n high mountain of
the same range. When found by the
guild sent out in search of them, Thorn
pson was found completely exhausted
and insensible at the bottom of a deep
ravine, and Hasson about hundred
yards further on, much exhausted and
Just able to drag himself along on his
hands and knees. Both would have
pirished in very short time. Meth
er had tasted food or water for { orty-

From the Wilmington Enterprlse.f
DR.. Aborn, who has acquired great
celebrity as an oculist, aurist, catarrh,
throat and lung physician, is at the
Backman house, Los Angeles, where
he will remain about two weeks The
Doctor has for several years devoted
special attention to the treatment of
chronic nasal catarrh, deafness, all
diseases of the eye, ear, head, throat,
organs of the chest, and affections of
the nervous system. We have read
many of his testimonials, which are
from the first men Of the nation, all of
whom clearly testify to his superior
knowledge and medical skill in the
treatment of his specialties. Those of
our community who are suffering
from any Of the above-named diseases
should consult DR.. Aborn. Many of
his cures have been wonderful, and
some of them have been effected in a
space of time that is almost incredi-
BILE. Consult him by all means. He
will do you good. $

sewing Machine Factory Turns out
One Hundred Machines per day
More than IL is Cnpacitated

THE SINGER MFG cos Sewing
Machine Agent has no doubt that the
Remington agent justly anticipates harder
names for his pet" machine when 1t Is un-
derstood that IL Is neither "Ths Singer Im-
proved" " nor an Improvement on the Sing
er." BY referring to one of our dailies find
that this soft, noseless, "pet' machine has
been introduced into Los Angeles at a much
earlier date than the agent states. (This may
be owing to defect of memory.
The Remington agent has made rather
startling statement to the public in his latest
advertisement To this effect-that the Rem
ington S. NJ. Co. in the anufacture of their
family machines have increased from $4,000
to $500 in the past four months, and in the
same paragraph says that the factory is only
capactated to make 25U per day; thus allow
Ing every working day during said period
find that he gives the Remington folks |"
credit for 100 machines more per day than the
Factory, with all its "large facilities" can
produce-a pretty hard strain on the most
fertile Imagination.
The Remington Agent asks the Singer
folks" very important question. namely:
Do they base the merits of their machines
upon the sales OF former years? AS am the
only representative OF the Singer Mfg. Co. In
this countyI shall answer the question. The
singer Mfg. Co. points with Just pride not
only 10 their sales in the past but also TO the
fact that those sales have constantly increas-
ed up to the present. hold TO the rule that
the comparative sales OF a machine consti-
tutes correct criterion of its merits and q
true index OF its popularity.

the history OF the Singer Sewing Machine, Tor

In Los Angelee, 1t has already become pet

taking the place of the older aud harder run

In the manufacture of their family ma
chimes they have increased from 1900 to S.
200 In the past four months, and to-day with
their large facilities for turning out more
than $50 machires per day, tho Remington
folks are 1000 behind in filling orders and
are obliged TO enlarge their works.
In the manufacture of their rifles, revolvers,
agricultural implements, type writer, etc.,
their name has become a synonym of perfec-
tion In work and material. and everyone
knows when it bears the stamp of Remington
1t Is good and up to-not behind-the times.
Do the Singer folks base the merits of their
machines upon the sales Of former years, the

A NATIONAL AIR.-It is probable thnt
most people nre aware of the import of
the centennial celebration Mt Philadcl-
phia next year. It is intended to show
to the world what great metropolis tho
City Of Brothorly Love is, and how de-
pendent this glorious Union is upon
that village for it's wcll-being This is
the prime object, of course. Of second
ary consideration is the fnct TINT it is
hoped the occasion will bring together
our countrymen from both sides and
both ends of the Mason and Dixon line,
and that there will be such another mani
festation of good fellowship and good
feeling rs was witnessed from Bunker
Hill the other day, only upon grnnder
SCALE To signnlize this latter phase of
the commemoration Of the birth of the
republic, it hns been suggested that some
one compose suitable memorial mir. In
fact, there is no tune of national charac-
ter which the patriots of tho North, the
South, the East md the West can hum,
whistle or sing! in concert, without invok-
ing memories that should be allowed to
rest undisturbed in the tomb of the past.
During the late passage ut arms, the
Federnls monoplized all the whilom nn-
tional anthems, and the Confederates
were compelled to do their own musical
composition. True, the boys in gray
were not long at loss for soul-stirring
airs that gave new life to "dust-brown
columns" worn out with the fatigue of
the march, or set the hearts bounding
when battle was impending. Conse-
quently, "The Star-spangled Banner"
will hardly cntwine itself very gratefully
in "The Bonnie Blue Flag" even though
the centennial orchestra play the airs in
fraternizing medley. 1t is, therefore,
apparent that the committee on music
should seq to it that we have "AIarsci-
laise," or .'Wacht nm Rhein," or a
"God Save the Queen" which we oil can
shout in chorus, as we fall upon one an
others nechs, while the spirits of our
forofnthers materialize sufficiently to give
us their Jenetlirite. Yankee Doodle is
played out.

EMIGRATION TO San DOMINGO. The
chief OF the Republic of San Domingo has
issued proclamation inviting immi-
grants into his dominions, aud rs IN
inducement thereto, holding out the
privilege of importing free of duty NIL
tools. machinery and provisions needed
for three years. The invitation is ad-
dressed chiefly to those who have accu-
mulated some capital and shown some
capacity for conducting industrial opc-
rations on their own account. These,
more than nny others Of the colored race,
are useful where they are. Immigrants
are warned that they will be expected
not to interfere with the existing political
order of things. 1t will be much better
for blacks in this country to remain
where they are, under the influence and
guidance Of civilized men. 1t is also to
the interest of the whites that they re-
main, for their labor is needed in the
South.
