SCANDAL At BISMARCK.

A correspondent of the Minneapolis Tri.
bune, writing from Bismarck, thus dishes up
a nice little morsel for scandal mongers:
Bismarck and military circles are exer-
cised over q scandal of considerable dimen-
sions which though of not the most recent
occurrence is not altogether dropped.
Several weeks ago Maj. Pitts, post trader at
Fort Rice, came to Bismarck and did not
Whilst and the temptations of this wicked
little city. He found the usual hangers-on
at these frontier posts to accompany him in
q protracted debauch, which eliminated
mors seriously than he expected. There
var . social gathering one night, wine had
flowed freely, and the doughty major was the
worse for it. A marriage was arranged bet
ween the window of "Jack" White. who
fourished here as a banker Of the frontier
character and died suddenly, leaving q
blooming young bride.
In the height of the revel the party called
in Justice Stewart. Maj. Pitts and Mrs.
White presented themselves, the usual form
was gone through, and when the justice
said, "Will you have this man to be your
lawful husband?' it is reported the bride
laughing turned and asked j. NJ. Mckenzie,
who fomerly resided in Minneapolis,
"What shatl I say? Yes or no?" "Oh, say
yes" replied Mckenzie, and the deed wa
done. When Maj. Pitts came to = ~realiza-
ton of what had been done he proceeded to
endeavor to rid himself of . burden he
hadn't intended to assume, and it is under.
stood they have agreed upon some kind of a
separation. But the affair has made q scan.
dal at least, and is the basis Of an endeavor
to supersede Msior Pitts at Fort Rice-one
Of the most profitable Of the many profitable
military posts, and this matter is still pend
ing, with q very good prospect of Maj Pitts
official head dropping into the basket.
His friends charge, however, in extenuation,
that the whole affair was . conspiracy upon
the part Of parties desiring to GUST him from
his official positionIand that propositions we're
actually made to get him out Of the scrape,
for . consideration. The whole affair is con.
sidered extremely d~isreputable to all con.
cerned, and is q sensation above sensations
in this sensational quarter.

thawing, freezing and delays
which freight Oysters are
subject to, destroying their

goods at a living profit.
9Th. Because he has had
many years experience in the
Oyster business, and there
fore can give his customers
more and better goods for
the money than any other
house in the city.
9th. Because of his con-
stantly increasing trade in
handling many hundred dollars
worth of Oysters each year, he
is enabled to get a large discount

consent to be hanged. When the
jailers heard of it they Of course
had Bernal removed and placed in
the cell with Madden, who had
himself occupied Vasquez' cell, and
got enough of it. Madden says
that the first night he was placed
in the cell he was in such a state of
intoxication that though he heard
the noises they did not cause any
fear, but the second night he re-
ceived the benefit Of what he had
missed on the former occasion, and
was satisfied that he could remain
in the cell no longer. The other
prisoners hear the noises, but only
family, not with all the volume the
actual occupants Of the cell attri.
butte. The prisoners can have no
opportunity to perpetrate a joke
upon the occupants of this particu-
lar cell, as they are locked up the
same time he is, and there are in
tervening cells between them, The
prisoner who occupies the cell has
no object in attributing these pecu.
liar manifestations to Vasquez, be.
cause he does not better his condi
ton by 50 doing. These are the
facts, from which each one car
draw his conclusions.

Elections are invariably very
quiet affairs in France, and to-day
has afforded no exception to the
rule. Indeed, the day has been
characterized by even less outward
political excitement than usual, for
the simple reason that the weather
has been remarkably fine, and that
thousands of Parisians, oblivious,
or rather unmindful of their duty
to their country, have seized the
opportunity Of going out of town.
A great many of those who remained
have passed the best of the day in
the Champs Elysees and the Bois.
1t is true that this relaxation did
not prevent them from voting in
their respective QUARTERS in the
early morning hours, and, as a mat
ter of fact, there were more bulle.

THE GHOST OF VAsOUEZ,
The California Bandit Revfaits His
Ord Cell In the San Jose jail.


San Jose Mercury
Bernal, who was incarcerated in
the county jail for the stabbing of
officer Wampatch, was on Tuesday
night placed in the cell occupied by
Tiburclo Vasquez, during his I'M
prisonment in the county Jail await
ing his doom. Bernal is not the
first prisoner who has been required
to occupy this cell, nor is he the
first who has in abject terror detail
ed to his fellow prisoners and the
jailers accounts of his first nights
experience in that dungeon. AS
was stated, Bernal was placed in the
cell on Tuesday night, and on the
following morning, when his attor-
ney visited him in the cell, the first
wish he expressed when left alone
was to be removed from the cursed
place; to be taken out, tried, hanged
or anything, only not to be re.
quired to pass another night alone
within its walls. He stated in de-
tail the facts which caused him to
make the request. He says that
about two o'clock on Wednesday
morning he was awakened
by loud noises of striking against
his cell, and knocking and chains
clanking. All was quiet for a
few moments, and then the noises
started, slowly and meaauredly at
first, but increased in volume and
rapidity until they were deafening
and terror-striking. They again
gradually lowered, and clearly
through the darkness, near the
door, he could discern the thin,
light outline of a form, still and
motionless, which gradually disap-
peared. The noise again sounded
in the same manner as before,
slowly at first, gradually deepening
and uproarious, and then slowly
subsiding, while, with their ceasing,
in another part Of the cell the same
thin outline of ahuman form was
first apparent, then filed into size
and for some minutes remained
motionless and gradually faded
away into mist. The noises, rap
ping and clanking occurred at
three different times, and, after
intervals Of some moments, the
apparition appearing at the end of
each noisy disturbance. Bernal
says it was awful aud appalling, SO
much so that sooner than pass an
other nightin such a place he would
