toward his home, near the Central road,
suspecting no i'll, he was overtakcn and
suddenly halted by man who demanded
his money. He refused, and upon the in
slant the stranger struck him a fearful
blow in the face with brick, which he
had in his hand. Besides making a terri
BILE wound, the blow Frustrated Mr. Searls
to the ground, from which he recovered
himself before the robber could repeat
the blow, and ran to his house short dis
lance away. Intelligence of the outrage
was Immediately sent to the officers, who
instituted a search for the criminal and
finally found him concealed in a box-car
at the depot, from whence he was taken
to Jail. The fellow, who gave his name
as Samuel Mcbride, is tramp cigar maker,
from Webster City, who had been loafing
about town for a few days, dead broke,
and out of work. He adopted this way
of raising the wind, but without success

RESTAURANT PRICES AT THE CENTEN-

J. I made partial tour of the restaurants
to-day, seeking both information and sus-
tenance. At the 1rois Freres the quest
for the latter was not very satisfactory.
To put it mildly the prices at this estab-
lishment are exorbitant. I came away
rather hungrier than went, having paid
for few swallows of weak soup, two
slender mutton chops and bit of bread,

a row of five middle-aged women, seated
on sort of elongated pulpit, and regis

10 cents-total SO cents. If L had in
dulged in the luxury of butter, il would
have added 10 cents to the reckoning.
Potatoes were marked in the bill so cents,
roast beef 80 cents, cold meats 60 cents,
half roast chicken ST.. The prices OF
wines were not correspondingly high, be-
ing about the same as at first-class hotels
in the city. The prices at the American
restaurant for better fare are much more
reasonable. Roast meats cost so cents ):
vegetables. Is to. 90; puddings and pies
20; cold meats, 40 to so, and tea and
coffee Is cents. Still cheaper is the tariff
at Laulin's German restaurant, where
the figures seem to be no higher than at
the city establishment of the proprietor,
viz: For soups. -15 to rs cents is charged; |;
steak, SO to rs; roast, 40 to 60; vegeta-

A FAMILY PYRAMID,

A party of colored individuals took the
Southwestern Railway to visit some rel
atives near Bakersport, KY Upon ar
irving at the depot the aforesaid passen-
gers stepped out upon the platform of the
car preparatory to getting off the train,
which was passing the platform at the
depot.
The conductor. seeing the danger they
were in, haHooed to them not to jump
off ta tat
The old negro said: :" I is going to git
of here, white man; you can't fool me;
| is rid on these here thing before
So saying he leaped from the car upon
the platform, and. it being covered with
sleet, he skated off and fell upon the
ground beyond, which lay at least ten
feet below.
The old woman followed his illustrious
example. and over she went on top of the
old man. 1e
The girl, who weighed about three
hundred pounds. followed her mother
and became the capping stone, so to
speak, though if an artisan had seen the
pyramid he would have thought the base
of it had turned up. g,aaHS
By the time the train stopped the old
African presented himself at the end of
the platform, much fatter in appearance
than when he made his exit.
The last we saw of him he was railing
at the top of his voice: ~
"jist like woman always wants to
visit in bad weather! And now will
have to su de white folks of dis train in

In the condemned cell. undeniably com
mitted suicide beneath the noses of his
vigilant keepers. Despite all his protes-
tations of innocence, the man was well
aware of his own guilt. and had a new
trial been accorded him an astound-
ing amount OF, new testimony could have
been produced to fasten the crime upon
him more decisively than the prosecution
did in the first instance. There was
newly developed evidence Of his criminal
intimacy with the murdered girl and of
his application to have an operation per-
formed on her. The case it appears was
adjudicated upon, prior to the murder,
by the synagogue to which both assassin
and victim were attached. Still as the
manners and customs of the singular
community of Russ Polish Jews, estab-
llshed on the east side of the town and
completely isolated from English speak
ing residents of that quarter are so thor
oughly unfamiliar to the police, q consid-
cradle time elapsed before the fact was
known of ecclesiastical Judgment having
been given. 1t now appears that the
petty synag0gnes. attended by the Polish
Jews. one on every other block, are the
sole tribunals to which these fanatics at
fach moral Importance and their DEGREES
are implicitly obeyed It is said that
Rubenstein finding Sara Alexander to be
pregnant and consequently by their law
an adulteress. caused his case, he being
also an adnlterer. to be brought before
the tribunal Of this particular people,
which adjudged the girl to death, and
that he. the father of the unborn child,
must be her executioner. his punish
n1ent to be in the world to come. In
pursuance of this rigorous decree Ru-
benstein murdered the girl and, detected
and condemned. starved himselfto death.

A QUESTION OF CoLoR.-After the OPEN
ing exercises were over, and the crowd
had dispersed through the immense build
ing, leaving the grounds comparatively
open and clear, one of the Turkish ex-
hibitors, clad in the flowing silk. gown
peculiar to his country, and accompan-
led by beautiful young woman. who
seemed to be his wife, and who was mag
nifcently attired in the national costume
and brilliant with many gems, passed
through the avenue leading from Machin-
cry Hall to the main building. The cou-
pie attracted great deal of attention and
much innocent comment. When they
had just reached the door of the grand
gallery, they were met by certain well
known negro member OF Congress from
South Carolina who was accompanied by
two of those peculiarly beautiful colored
women who are so often met with IN the
Palmetto State. As the parties approach
ed each other, the Congressman, who
was swelled out in all the dignity of u
dresscoat and white kid gloves exclaimed.

inspected the face of the lady from the
