debate was had on the Civil Rights

Poland, from the House Judiciary
Committee, reported favorably on
Pages bill 10 restore the law relating

has sold the paper to T. J. BUTLER

Mr.. MARION owned and edited the

it paper known and sought after
throughout the Pacific Coast. We
trust the new proprietor will stand by
the interests of Arizona as unwaver-

Washington dispatches show that the work of
prosecuting the men who have defrauded the Gov
ernmsnt in the whisky tax goes on with remarka-
BILE success. Up to the pre- sent time there has not
been single failure on the part of the Govern
mcnt to secure conviction in any case that has
been brought to trial. The Treasury Department,
as we'll as the Law Department has shown great
energy and determination in this matter, and the
result will, beyond doubt, be great saving to the
Government. The excise on spirits has always
been extremely difficult tax to collect, and it
affords, at best, many opportunities for evasion,
but the history of the latest and most extensive
conspiracy to defraud the Treasury gives evidence
that an honest and on the whole, effective admin
straton of the law is not impossible.-NeW York

A very interesting fact in connection with tn Q
the loss and destruction of fractional currency il
ascertaincd from the Treasury Department. 1t is
very well known that the Government is yearly
the gamer by large amount by the disappearance
OF small notes and currency. But the figures re-
gardng the three and five cent issues Of fraction
al currency, when it is remembered how many OF
them are required TO make dollar, particular
ly interesting. The issue OF these notes ceased in
April, 1869. at which time there had been issued
$500, 900 of the denomination of three cents and
$1,000 900 of the fve-cent series Although over
six years have elapsed. there still outstanding
S92 600 in three cents, and over 81, $4,000 Of the

Mr.. Rice lives and has lived for twenty years,
form subject in which I do not take much inter-
est, but there may be those of your readers who
are anxious upon this point. To them let me say
that the South end is the bugbear of Beacon
street. Beacon street holds its head high above
that locality. Socially it never sees the place 1t
does occasionally condescend to know the High
lands, whish are made up Of wards in the city still
further south, and it recognizes acquaintance IN
the suburbs but the south end is the home OF the
parvenu in Beacon street estimation. Its carrla-
ges are never allowed 10 stop there moment
more than is necessary. This is all very absurd
when it is remembered that the largest portion Of
the business lifebood of Boston flows in the
veins of the enterprislng and intelligent young
merchants who make up the staple OF South end
society: but you may see from 1t plenty that no.
body that sets himself up to be Exclusive" goes to
the South end to do it. 1t is here that Mr.. Rice
lives. He is in it and of it, and is indeed one of
its chief representative men. 1t is ludicrousiy
wrong, therefore, to charge him with Beacon
street assumption. lie has cast in his lot with an
other class Of people altogether. Mr.. Castor does
live if not Beacon street, in the Beacon street
neighborhood. Nobody ever charged him with
spirit of social exciusiveness. lie has put on less
OF the airs OF Office a. the result Of his election
than any man who has sat in the governors chair
within recollection, and exhibits an unaffected
courtesy that gives him many friends. The most
absurd mistake made about our governor is that of
the Chicago Tribune, which speaks Of him as over
70 years cid. He doesn't look day over 40,
though he is about So. Both Gov. CASTOR and
Mayor Cobb were originally from the city OF Rox-
bury, where they were influential politicians to-
gether in the early days of the war. Politicians
from this section have been singulary successful
of late years. The three latest mayors Of Boston
have been from Roxbury and Dorchester, and the
latter place furnishes the member Of Congress

4 FoRGERS CURIOUS HISTORY.

Max Wadn, who is now in jail in Newark, n
j., waiting trial on charge of forging note ftr
81 900, and who tried to commit suicide by hang
ing himself in his cell Thursday night, 2lst, has a
curious European history. His wife, who resides
in New York, visited Newark Thursday, and
stated that his real name was George Schwartz !;
that 1866 in Bavaria, he was tried and convicted
of forgery and sentenced to ten years imprison-
ment that while en- route to prison he tried to es
CAPE but failed, and then tried to commit suicide,
as he did in Newark. lie served six years, but be-
i'll that the physicians said he would not
live if longer imprisoned. He was given ticket
of leave for year on condition that he would re-
turn and serve the balance of his term. He ran
away to America however, previously inducing
his wife to marry him by professions of wealth,
&c. lie deserted her in New York, and but for
his arrest for forgery would doubtless have been
married to another woman by this time. In his
Bavarian crime he had confederate, who while
attempting to escape, was drowned in the river
Danube.

The late sam Cary ran poorest where he wa

him.
If the proposed new constitution is accepted by
the people of Texas, the Governors term Will DC

BY the death of Frederick Hudson, through a
sad accident, in Concord, journalism has lost one
Of its most worldly representatives. He was sixty
four years old at the time of his death, having
been born in Quincy in 1910. When very young
he removed to Concord, where he received his
early training. He attended school in Boston, and
was graduated at the Mayhem School in the class
of 1880, in which among others were Thomas r..
Gould and Edward Davenport. In 1886 he went
to New York, and very soon after entered the Of
fee Of the New York Herald, then recently estab-
lished lie retained hs'connection with that jour
nal for period of thirty years, rising by his in
dustly and talents to the position of managing ed
itor. In 1866 i'll health compelled him to abjure
the anxeties and arduous duties of daily journal
ism, and he retired from active duties. Since that
time he has lived in comparative quiet at Concord.
Here he wrote the History of Journalism," which
is by common consent the standard work on the
subject Mr.. Hudson had host of personal
friends and was greatly esteemed in Concord and
