The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1877-03-01

A NEW amusement is in vogue among
Mexicans in San Francisco. They wind
handkerchief tightly around the blades
of their knives, leaving quarter of an
inch Of the points bare. Then they fight
with these weapons, and although the
wounds cannot be deep, they aye often
numerous and painful.

THE suicide of Mr.. Collins, the chief
engineer of the Lake Shore road, issup-
posed to have been caused by mental
depression and overwork. He cried like
a child when he saw the Ashtabula
wreck, though no one held him re-
gponsible for the accident.

that two indictments were found against
him in that county. This is an old story

The facts are, that soon after leaving

by the grand jury, for embczzlement,

was quashed at the next term of court.
Political opponents were the movers in
the matter, and went before the grand
jury and procured the bill, just MS has
been done IN different cases before some
ofOur grand iuries in latter times. The
matter was Immediately settled, and has
been exposed time and again. No one,

a RARE and novel phenomenon in en-
igration was seen in New York last
or4O-f-rsrSJrod american stone
cutters, getting 81 80 day, were hired by
London contractors who have agreed to
construct the law courts and newTclnple
within year. They cannot get work
men enough In England to complete it.
The wOrkmen are engaged for one year,
at Cd an hour, with the privilege Of
making over hours At 10 hours day,
therefore, their pay will be little less
than 81. They will haye to work Is
hours day to earn their present wages
in New York. But they are assured of
steady work in London for. year, which
they probably do not get in New York.
This crew will be followed by others as
soon rs they can be hired. - ,
COLLECTOR Mort, of the Sixth North
Carolina District, sends to the commits
sioner of internal reuenue report of
raids in Burk county with five revenue
officers. They seized in South Mountain
three distilleries, 60 barrels of whisky
and two, barrels of brandy, and captured
N. and A. York. The property and per-
sons were taken to Morgantown. While
the revenue officers were descending the
mountains with the booty they were con-
stantly assailed by party armed with
rifles, and all but one were wounded,
Deputy Collector Gillespie seriously.
The same officers about three weeks be-
fore were shot at by concealed persons.
Deputy Collector Hughes telegraphs
from Columbia, Tenn, that Thomas G..
Williams, who acted as guide for him on
a recent raid against illicit distillers in
Lawrence county, was taken from his
house one night by disguised men and
murdered. ti
The Louisville Commercial (Republi-
can) speaks as follows concerning Gen.
eral John M. Harlan, whose name is mem
toned in connection with the vacancy
on the Supreme Bench: ''The General
has always been a hard worker in his
profession, giving but little attention to
matters outside of it, except to OCCASION
ally assist in important elections when
called upon to speak. His. extensive
knowledge of all matters pertaining to
this country and its government to-
gether with his ability and force as pop
ular speaker, have made him an idispen
sible aid to the Republican party in this
section. His. speec hes from one end of
the state TO the other, when upon two
occasions he has made the eanyass for
Governor, have done more for the pro-
motion of enlightened thinking in some
of the remote counties than any other
influence coming near them. He is es-
sentially progressive in his political
views. always bringing the work before
him up to his ideas of right, rather than
descending to conventional methods. He
has always been working for others
rather than himself, and is in this APP
pointment promoted in the line of the
profession which has been bis life study
rather than given recognition for his po-
litical accomplishments. s5' -
