name of Morris Moriarty of Scanned street.
He was brought before Recorder Hackett yes
terday and pleaded guilty to robbery in the
first degree. His honor. in a few pointed re-
marks, expressed the repugnance he felt TO
sending young men to state prison for long
periods, but stated that the public welfare
demanded that such a crime as the accused

punishment. He therefore sentenced him TO

fifteen years. ". Y. Herald. 12th.

ADVANCE IN THE PRICE OF ICE-Tne rise
in the price ofiC In New York, which has
been for some time impending, was an
bounced to go into effect yesterday. Sixty
cents per hundred pounds is TO be hereafter
charged to private families, and forty cents
TO the large cash trade, including butchers,
pork packers, restaurant keepers aud Others.
This il an advance of 100 per cent. on exist
ing prices. The New York Times says Il is
acknowledged on all hands that unless the
weather changes entirely, aud continues
more than ordinarily cold during the next
four weeks, there will be little or no ice gath
cred In that latitude. Already the deal ers
along the Penobscot and other rivers in
Maine are holding their stocks in expecta-
tion OF heavy rise, and cannot be induced
TO sell except at the highest prices.

money for the purpose OF going into business;
tnst his wife was killed during the mbard
ment OF Paris i've years ago; that his money
was nearly gone, and that when he was
pepniless he should then quit the world.
On Saturday last he brought home two large
plsnks OF wood and a large double h2ndled
knife, such as Is used by tanners for scruplng
the hair oil skins, bat no notice was taken
of IL, witness thinking they were for cutting
up into models. Nothing was seen OF him
on Sunday, and on Monday morning his door
was burst open, when IL was discovered that
he had committed suicide by cutting OF his
head with guil,otiEe. The two plaDkS hal
knife had been placed. Grooves had been
cut In the inner sides or the plaukS for the
knife To run down easily, amt two heavy
stCL es were bound to the upper part OF tle
knife 10 give il weight, and by means of
pulley he had crGwn up the knife and let il
fail on his throat, the head being cut clean
of. Coz hTmatOry evidence having been
given, the jury returned q verdict of suicide

THE INsIDIOUS GAME of three card monte
bias worked such havoc in the rural districts
that the legislatures OF several states have
been obliged to consider mea sures for the
supp ession of the evil. The Iowa legisIa-
ture is the latest one to take cognizance OF
the matter. The house of that body has
passed bill making swlndling three-card
monte men liable to line and Imprisonment,
and comforting upon conductors, station
agents and other persons employed in public
conyeyances or in places of public resort, au-
thoTlty 10 arrest such swindlers, with or
without a warrant. The law will probably
pass the senate without opposition.

ONE OF THE BEST OF THE Doc STORIES.
Yesterday, as the morning train over the
Rochester road was nearing Alfred, the en-
gineer discovered a large Newfoundland dog
on the track. He blew the whistle, but tue
dog stood his ground, and thinking some
thing was wrong, the engineer whistled down
brakes, and the locomotive stopped within a
few feet of the dog. A four OK load of logs
had attempted to cross the track, but the
sled caught on the rails. The driver heard
the train approaching round a curve, and
rushed down the track TO stop it. His dog
took in the situation, and dashed around the
curve and stopped the train.-( Portland 1ae)
