In an interview with tho prise fighters
efter their sentence by Judge Reed, at

happened as anybody living. ] think
what has happened is u just warrant
from H. aven, for he was praying night
and morning that II he couldn't win he

tho cause of his death was when no

broken heart" Spring Dick thought
both the Judge and jury were preju
diced. "There has been 80 much talk
about it," said Dick, "that they
help be. would rather have
been tried and sentenced by some other
Judge. Nv. got a good heart to serve
my sentence, though. No use Of man
fretting over ii. The only thing that
touches me is my wife that has Just
come over from England. She Is all
alone, and stranger in the land"
Martin Neary said that the verdict was
an outrage. Collyer Thought the verdict
proved at once that the jury had made
up their minds before, and were not
governed by the testimony. 1t seemed
10 strange to him that he declared he
lid not know what to say about it.
Jlark was worried over his sentence be- |
'ause his father, mother and sister had |
ust come over from the old country,
md were dependent on hira for support,
y were also his wife and two children.

Considerable interest Ia manifested In

A crowd OF people were standing
around the great engine in Machinery
Hall, at the Centennial, watching and
admiring it, when man stepped from
from among them and took from his
pocket tin box, and opening ittook out
what appeared to be an exceedingly di-
minutive alcohol lamp, and placing it on
the corner Of the platform, lighted it.
Then it began to buzz something as q
humming bird might if only small
enough, and upon close examination 1t
was found to be a perfect steam engine,
in full motion, having for its foundation
a twenty-five cent gold piece. It was
composed of gold, steel and platinum,
the fly wheel being three-fourths of an
inch in diameter, tne stroke one-fourth
of an inch. and its full weight seven
grains. A magnifying glass had to be
used to see it distinctly.

The Eastern Troubles.

The entry OF the Turkish fleet into
the Black sea, to be followed by the
fertilization of the coast at Sinope and
Trebizond, says the New York Herald,
shows that tho Porte does not regard the
armistice with very great hopefulness as
leading to permanent peace. This is at
least prudent. Russia cannot object to
the entry Of Turkish vessels into the
Euxine when she herself has already
torn upthe neutrality clause of the treaty
Of Paris. 1t may put Turkey in bet
ter condition to meet the onslaught of
Russia if war with the northern power
is inevitable, but at the same time it is
a decided step toward provoking such a
conflict. The tender of ten thousand
breech leaders to the Servian militia by
the Grand Duke Michael Constantine is
another significant feature of the armis-
tice, and far fiom promising one. 1t
looks as though the great war had only
been postponed.

Ii. ne Houses Mission.

Mrs. Irene House, in announcing her
intention to become a public lecturer,
writes to Garrett, the brother of the
husband whom she killed, thus:
shall never rest until I have divorce
abolished for every cause ali over the
United States. shall never rest until
have the laws relating to schools so
changed that Christianity from infancy
shall be installed as thoroughly as the
alphabet, accompanying every study,
and fit my charges so that sin cannot
get hold on their minds or lives. The
world will learn that, although I have
read medicine, and might become n
practicing physician, and make living
by curing, yet believe in prevention
more than euro later applied, in that as
we'll as all other branches of practice. l
have got my mind firmly made up that
all the faults and sins and evils of life
can be entirely oycrcome-eradicated by
commencing with consistent correction
aud Christian instruction with the infant
mind within the very first years of life.

The IrOuClads.

The Pail Mall Gazette, in comparing
the most formidable OF the Russian iron
clads, the Peter the Great, with the
R.itish nrnadnaneht, says that II the
former can average tweitu hnvt., L..
designers may think themselves lucky.
The Devastation steamed from Malta to
Smyrna in forty.eight hours, at the rate
OF fourteen and one-half knots an hour;
in point of armament and thickness OF
armor plate, tho vessels are nearly alike,
each carrying four thirty-five ton guns.
The Thunderer is more powerfully arm
ed with two thirty eight and two thirty
five-ton guns, and would be still more
formidable. The Dreadnaught is larger
than the Peter the Great, carries four
thirty -eight-ton guns, is faster than
either of the others, and probably the
most dangerous ironclad aaoat at the
present time.

The Orator.

There are a number of middle aged
gentlemen, who, thinking themselv
endowed by nature with oratorical abiii-
ty, visit Sunday schools to display their
speechmakipg qualities. One of these
gentry had a round of four or five
schools which he visited regularly and
as regularly bored, ending his orations
invariably with "Amen" While visit
ing one of the schools, the superiu-
tendent, ont of courtesy, asked him if
he desired to say few words to the
school. "Wa'ai, yes, I'll just say
word or two!" and, Strengthening him
self up, he began "Wa'al, chil'un,
the superintendent wants me to speak
to yer! Meow, what shall | say-what
shall l talk about?" A brig t little
fellow, about four years of age, sitting
in the frort seat, who evidently had
heard the orator before, jumped to his
feet, and lisped out loud enough to be
heard oil over the schoolroom "Thay
Amen, snd thit down !"

Heptenstall in st. Louis, she being only
seventeen years OF age, and o comely

and at the same time drunkard, and
the poor girl soon found herself eking
ont a miserable existence with sot OF q
husband. When the hard times came
on the condition OF the Heptcnstalls

weeks age Mrs. Heptenstall called at the
mayors Office and stated that her child
was dead, aud that she had no means by
which to procure its burial. The mayor
went to the premises shortly after to seq
about the burial, and found the poor
mother engaged in keeping the rats from
the dead body OF her child. Not long
after the mayor was notified that Hep.
tenstall had deserted his wife, and that
she was starving to death. The mayor
paid another visit to the premises, and
found the woman in the most miserable
condition, produced by hunger and mat
tention. The mayor concluded to send
her to the county hospital, but on tho
way she died and her suffelings were at
an end. A short distance from the city
the vehicle passed her brute OF husband
on the highway, staggering from the
effects of drink.

The Indian War.

A correspondent interviewed Gen.
Sherman on the Indian question. The
reporter asked if he was satisfied with

"Perfectly satisfied" he replied.

have chance to make SO much trouble
again, for our treatment of them will be

"Well, we must be more rigorous aud
end our leniency toward them in many
ways. Those of them who surrender at
the Indian agencies now are not only
deprived of their arms, but also of the
opportunity of beginning fresh belliger-
encies."
"How long do you suppose it will
require to end the present hostilities ?"
"The indefinite course of these
affairs precludes my giving you definite
opinion on that subject. We are NOV
ing upon them in four Columns. There
is only one body OF them remaining, and
their uumber cannot be very large.
Miles took 500 tents, which must have
comprised 1900 Indians. We shall

if it takes ali this winter and even the
following summer. we will dog them till

Very Badly Frightened,

When the bandits made their recent
raid in Minnesota on the Mortified
bank they captured, near Mankato, an
inoffensive German, named Dunning.
After he had piloted them to a roadway
which they wished to find, they calmly
debated the question whether they
should permit him to go on his way or
kill him on the spot. After the
question had been discussed quite freely
a ballot was taken, and the Germans
life was saved by the vote of Charley
Pitts, the robber who was subsequently
killed near Madelia. Duuning was COM

of the return of the bandits. He finally
