THE CONTINENTAL RIFLE TEAH.-It is .
well known fact to all lovers of the rifle
that without competition in the way of
matches" the sport loses much OF its At
tending excitement and interest. The Con.
tinental Guards have the desire to prove
their efficiency in the use of the rifle, -
we'll IS they have heretofore proven their
admiral knowledge Of the drill and deport-
'ment of the soldier. They have selected .
team, consisting of eight members Of tho
company who have won their positions in
the team by their respective scores made in
three days practice. The scores made have
been remarkable, considering the guns
used, being the ordinary Springfield. with
the heavy pull of six-pound trigger. The
team has challenged any and al military
companies to meet them in front Of tho 200
yard target, and We hope to see tho glove
thus thrown taken up by some of our or
CARNATIONS ut an early day.

A Washington dispatch says Blaine was
prompt to reply to Mulligan's allegations,
but the friends Of both admit that the con-
troversy is not yet settled. Blaine's oppo-
nents are confident that the doings have
done much to iniure his prospects at Gin
cinnati, while Mr.. Daine's friends insist
that the Mulligan scandal will only result
as many others have done, in making
Blaine more popular with the people.
The sensational point of Mr.. Kerrs de-
fence, If he concludes to publicly make it,
will attract scarcely less attention In the
country than the crime with which he ia
charged by the witness Harvey. The most
inexplicable feature in the transaction up
on the assumption of Mr.. Kerr's honesty is
that he should have gone out of his own
district to have selected an appointee from
New \ ork, when other congressman were
overrun with applications for these covet-
ed places. Mr.. Kerr's friends state that
his real explanation is this Kerr in fact
had no applications from his own district
for these places, for the reason that he was
known as an anti-war man. He had Just
come to congress with such record, and
old Union soldiers in his district did not
care TO appeal to a man with such antece-
dents to obtain them place in the army.

The investigation committee, in their re.
port in the Mary Merritt case, will com.
pletely exonerate Mr.. Bristow.
Mr.. Kerr's case looks better for him, and
it is thought that he may be able to ere
long to prove his innocence to the satisfac.
ton of everybody.
Robeson, too, has improved his case and
the democrats do not talk any more of i'm.
peaching him, but will content Themselves
with severe censure.

years, standing indictment against him.

connecting links in the damning cham of
evidence against the prisoner Tatro, we're
found. 1t will be remembered that the
bedrooms occupied respectively by the
murdered woman and her husband and Ia
tro and were separated only by an ordinary
lath and plaster partition. In this partition
it was found that hole had been dug.
The natural supposition is that Tatro had
watched his victim through this hole while
at her toilet and thus fed the lust which
finally led to his awful crime. 1t also ap-
pears that one day previous to the murder
Butler and Tatro had been at work in the
field sowing plaster, and to protect his
clothes from the dust Tatro wore linen
coat. When he came home at night, Tatro
took off this coat and threw ii on the floor
in the kitchen. Butler remembers seeing
his wife pick 1t up and throw il in the back
passageway with the soiled clothes for the
wash. Upon uDroling the bundle of cloth
ing found near and upon the murdered
womans body, this coat Is found among
them stained with blood In such manner
as 10 indicate that some one tried TO wipe
blood from his hands on 1t. The inference
is that when the flend had finished his
bloody work he went to this passage, pick
ed up the coat and attempted to cleanse
his hands. Tatro's hands, when he was ar
rested, appeared as if such an attemp. to
wipe the blood off them had been made.
Hundreds of people from all parts of the
country have visited the scene. The pris-
oner still adheres to his improbable story !;
but shows such signs of weakness as to
lead the officers to anticipate speedy con-
fession OF the crime. Sheriff Morrill, will
at once set about preparing secure room
for him in the attic of the jail, where he
eau hold no intercourse with anybody.
Public opinion has pronounced an unan-
nous verdict of guilty against him.
