The Washington Republican. saws it
cost $001 ,00e, 900, to whip the Seminoles
and it will cost us $500, 100000 before the
present war is ended.
The war is another blunder of the Ad.
ministration. 1t never should have been
commenced. Nor do we believe it would
have been had the government not been
in bad hands. Tilden, however, will soon
find way to put an end to it and save
the people the cost estimated by the
Republican paper quoted above.

The New York Herald, of Saturday,
continues to charge the death of Custer
to the conduct Of President Grant, in
removing him from his command because
he testified under oath against Babcock
and the whisky ring. It's statement is
Il plausible one, which also duplicates to
a considerable extent, Sheridan and
Terry, for the disastrous defeat of the
army. 1t charges that these Generals
had command of the expedition and they
were responsible for undertaking the
Indian force and sending an inferior
force against them. Hence the disaster.

1t is burning shame that Custer and
Reno should have been sent against the
merciless savageswith inferior arms while
the War Department have thousands
upon thousands of better. Every soldier
should have had with him a repeating
rifle and brace of revolvers. With
these the three hundred under Custer
could hrvc killed thousand red skins
before they could have been butchered.

that they were married at the John Wesley
chapel, by the Rev. John E. Price, on the

September 16, 1915, when the defendant
abandoned and deserted herself from the habi-
ta;ion Of the petitioner and has continued to
do so for three years and upwards. He fur
thar complained that she committed, at divers
ii mes, adultery with one Allen Blunt, at a
ia m in Montgomery county, Maryland.
Yesterday Carrie F. Jones entered a suit for
divorce from Wm. II. Jones. She alleges
marriage in Troy. y. Y, in 1861, and

nothing to her support, bus has cruelty abused
her ard has broken up her business as dress
maker, both in Albany, \. Y, and in this
city. She charges also that he is drunkard
and has been unf&ithful to his marriage VOWS.

POWDER AND OIL.
The Cause Of Three Accidents.


On Wednesday man was killed BY charge
Of shot fired from musket. Following closely
upon this sad occurrence came three other
accidents, none Of which, however, proved
fatal. Mr.. Charles Bean, a butcher, went
down in the country to purchase some stock,
and took his gun along in expectation OF
getting Q shot or two at game along the road
when he returned to his home to Washtngt on,
and as the piece was being removed trD Dm the
wagon the charge in the barrel was &C ident-
ally exploded, wounding his two little girls,
Emily and jamie. DR.. Tucker rendered surgi-
cal aid.
Daniel Austin, the sexton of the Methodist
church in Uniontown, attempted TO hasten
fire by pouring coal oil upon it. The oil in
the can exploded, throwing the burning fluid
over his hands. DR.. Tucker dressed the
wounds.
Mrs. Mary A. Boarman, residing at the
corner of South Carolina avenue and Sixth
street southeast, tried to kindle a fire in the
same manner as Mr.. Austin, with similar
result. She was badly burned about the
hands and neck. The house was also set on
fire, but the flames were extinguished before
any serious damage was done.
