that, In the year 1870, he had murdered a
man named Charles Mitchell, on Green
river. His story was that during the v. war
ne and Mitchell had robbed a man NAM 81
Davenport, in Warren county, and that that
IN the division of the spoils, Mitchell had
taken more than his share. In revenge
the selt.possessed murderer watched R;s
vic'im for ten years with the purpose Of
killing him; and at last whan an favorable Ss l.,
opportunity presented ITSELF he shot him
through the heart. Mitchell, when sho,
was standing on barge, and his bodv fsIi
INTO the river. 1t was never found and
though y: suspicious of foul play were enter, r
tamed, there was no proof even Of his

SUDDEN DEATH OF A LAWYER IN CoUR1
RooM.-A Westminster correspondent of the
Baltimore papers writes as follows under date
of Nov. 26th:
"a sudden and sad event occurred in the
Court house in this city to. day-the almost in
Simultaneous death of Elijah F. Crout, brother
of the late Hezekiah Crout, of Baltimore city,
and one of the leading members of the Carroll
County Bar.
Mr.. Crout arose to address the jury upon the
case then being tried. In summing up his
cases his manner is always very excited,
speaking in loud and rapid tone, and using
many forcible gestures. On this occasion he
seemed to be making an unusual effort, and
was speaking with more than his accustomed
warmth, when he was obser, ed to sink to one
side, every one surprising it still his manner,
but in the next moment he fell to the floor.
After falling he uttered but a word two ::
"Give me some water" when all was ever.
"Mr. Crout was useful citizen, greatly liked
by all who knew him. He was about 55 years
of age, and for the past 20 years member Of
the Westminster Bar.
GAS lawyer he has been successful, having
large and lucrative practice. He has not
taken an active part in politics Of late years,
but was at one time n member Of the Mary
land Legislature.
"He was apparently in good health, but may
have had some unknown organic disease which
has thus carried him off so suddenly.
Mr. Crout was brother of Mr.. John E..
Crout, late tax-collector for the 4th district of
this county.

WEALTH OF THE LATE WM. B. .AsToR.--The
New York Times says: at is supposed that
Mr.. Astor leaves an undivided estate (mosty
reality of one hundred millions of dollars,
even at present reduced value Of real property
on this island. He had already devised large
ly to his children aud grandchildren. He, no
doubt, leaves very large sums IN the stocks of
and cities, but the aggregate of these, vaEt as
it might appear under other circumstances,
bears only a small relation to his real estate.
ITO a reporter Of the Herald Mr.. Peter Coop
or, an old friend of Mr.. Astor, IN reply to the
query as to what amount OF property Mr.. AS
tor had become possessed of during his life,
said it was, OF course, simply impossible to es
innate it with accuracy, nevertheless he felt
sure that it exceeded by far even the widest
estimate Of the public. Giving to it the esti-
mate of value which would have been fair be-
fore the late great and very general decrease
in values he was sure that 1000, 900 would
be nearer expression of it than any other
which was likely to be made by others than
those in charge of his accounts.
"Mr. Aston leaves three sons, two of whom
for many years past have assisted their father
in the management of his estate. The third
never took any active part in business affairs.
1t is said the Aston estate descends to John
Jacob, the eldest son. He is about sixty years
old, and has one son, William.

FooT RACE AND PIGEON SHcofING.-At the
Three-Mile House, on the Hookstown road on
Thanksgiving day, foot-race was run between
J. M. Foot and Charles Anderson, distance 100
yards, on the pike, for the sum of fifty dollars
a side. Foot led from the start and won easily
in about thirty seconds, leading his competitor
some twenty feet.
A pigeon shooting match also came off in the
afternoon. About s. birds were flown, and Of
these Henry Engle made the best score, bring
ing down 30 pigeons at 26 yards rise, Paul
Krout next best, with IS, and John Harry
third, with H. The stakes were pool con-
tributed by the contestants, and were given to
Henry Engle as the best shot. The sum was
about twenty dollars.

New ORDER.-On Saturday morning last, in
the Baltimore county Circuit Court, Judge yell
lott presiding, the following order in appeal
cases was passed
"That in all appeal cases where jury trial
is prayed, they will be taken up at once while
the jury is present, instead Of under the old
rule-at the end Of the term-which has here
tofore been the custom" This rule will great
ly expedite business.
Mr.. Keech suggested to the Court that the
rules of practice in this Court be modified and
revised, as counsel, in many cases were unac-
quainted with the present rules. The Court
approved of it, but wished to consult associate
mem bers of the Bench before taking action in

RIGHT OF REMOVAL IN EQUITY CAsEs.-The
Court of Appeals has decided in the case of
Cook VS.. Cook that the right of removal from
one court to another does not exist in cases in
equity. The case was an appeal from the Cir
cult Court of Baltimore county An effort was
made, on suggestion and affidavit, to have the
case removed to another court, but the court
decided against the right of removal, constru-
ing the words in section s, article of the con-
stitution of Maryland, providing for the re-
moval of "any suit action, issue or tition,
presentment or indictment" not to apply to
cases q equity. The Court of Appeals, Judge
Miller giving the opinion, say that an issue
may be made up in the Equity Court for trial
in civil court, and that then the right of re-
moval will exist. The Court of Appeals also
decided in another case that a civil case cannot
be removed after judgment by default.

The Bazaar is edited with a combination OF

The Bazaar commends itself to every member
of the household-to the children by droll and

matron by its patterns for the chldren's clothes,
to patertamilies by its tasteful designs for EN-

uniformly of great excellence. The paper has
acquired wide popularity for the Preside en-

WOUND AROUND WITH RED Hot IRoN.-John
Latham, a catcher at the finishing rolls in the
spike mill of the Allentown Rolling Mill Com
pany, on Wednesday evening met with an &C.
cdent most painful in its consequences. He
was tending at the rolls, when by an accident
piece of spike iron in leaving the rolls ran
between his legs and bending wound around
his body. The iron was red hot and the young
man was completely fastened in its embrace.
His agony was excruciatng, and he was com
PEELED to endure it until his fellow workmen
could cut the iron eff him with hammers and
unwind part of it. His abdomen, back and
other portions of the body were so fearfally
burned that he lay all Wednesday night and
Thursday in the greatest pain, and was re-
moved to st. Lukes Hospital, whore his suffer
ings can only be alleviated for some little time
as he cannot recover from his dreadful inju-
ries.- Wilmington Tribune, NoU. 9th.
