AN EQUITABLE CLAIM.

The facts given in our morning edl-
tion relative to the unfortunate loss 70
the city of all benefit from the hand
some donation Of Judah Touro and II.
d. Shepherd suggest similar disasters
that have occurred to other bequests OF
a similar character, respecting which
our worthy Mayor is preparing re-
port, which will soon appear. There is
a Typographical error or omission of a
in the statement OF the donation OF
Mr.. r. D. Shepherd for the finishing
the building for the Almshouse and en-
bellishing the grounds. It should have
been $50, 900 instead Of $4,000.
Those old gentlemen had their own
ideas relative to the most judicious ap-
pllcation of their charitable means.
One Of their favorite ideas was that of
an almshouse where both home and
shelter and employment could be fur.
nished to the destitute, and beggars
and tramps would be required to abide,
under wholesome restraints, but In COM
fort and under a judicious discipline.
There appears to have been keen and
large prescience evinced by these vener-
able philanthropists in their plans. In
those days beggars and tramps were al
most unknown in New Orleans, now
they are as numerous as the vermin in
Egypt during the plague. Thus an aims
house of the character indicated has be-
come great need. a most desirable in
stitution.
The edifice erected previous to the
war and paid for out of the legacy Of
Mr.. Touro was burned whilst in pos
session of and used as the barracks for
United States troops, then in the occu'
patton of the city. Has not the city q
just and equitable claim upon the
United States government for reim'
bursement of the amount OF this char
liable bequest destroyed? Would any
government refuse to restore to 80 noble
a purpose the value at least OF the prop
erty which was taken out OF the hands
of its trustees and used for government
and military purposes |? Are there no'
innumerable precedents In the action o
Congress and of the government for th'
granting of such reimbursement, ever
of private losses and much more Q
charitable and benevolent institutions
caused by the acts Of the government
and it's officers and employees?

HOW NOT TO do IT.
An Irate Citizen Talks on the CoDdi-
tion of the Repaved Streets.

Correspondence OF the Register.
II seems to me that our city 10 various
ways is entitled to q diploma for TINS
thing, especially in the matter OF laying
paveInents and crosswslks in our streets.
II does seen 10 me that If there Is any
way by which street can De kept torn
up, the street filled with debris for long
time, to the great inconvenience ana
danger OF bodily harm to both man and
beast, our city knows how 10 do 1t. They
have almost succeeded Ia making water
run up blll--it scarcely ever runs In the
cutters, which were intended for It,.
For instance look at the corner OF Chap
line and Sixteenth streets. For two
long years we endured mud hole there,
coneoling ourselves with the thought
that when it WAS paved 1t would be such
a comfort. But atss, since 1t was paved
it is no better, and the water, instead OF
running in the gutter, breaks for the MD
die OF the street until IL reaches the Elm
Grove track and follows 1t down and
lies In miniature lake on the crossing
Of Chspline aud Sixteenth streets.
Then take tha crossing At Bookings
corner. That square was reported finished
ten days ago and that has been lett with
rocks to fall over and holes To fall into
almost lmpassable.
To-day notice some more OF the same
kind OF artistic work. .se some large
rocks, evidently intended Tor cross-walks,
and instead oil putting them along the
side OF the street they are thrown IN the
gutter, making very good dam and
throwing all the water Into the centre Of
the street.
Wnen street is paved the contractor
rams it II little and throws on about two
or three inches OF DIRT s. no one can tell
anything about it, aud the first wagon
that passes over it after rain cuts
through to the hubs.
No one appears to be responsible lor
the WORK; no one seems to have charge
of the streets; in fact no one seems TO
know anything about it ex 2ept to k"o~
ho,1 not 10 do It, CITIZEN.

Horrible Murder.

TERRE HAUTE, October 3l.-A horri.
bic murder was committed yesterday al
ternoon about three o'clock, eight miles
west OF this city, near Sanford station,
on the Indianapolis and 81. Louis rail-
road, at the residence of Burgerine Trtt,
wealthy farmer HIS daughter Rosa,
aged nineteen, has been the object OF at
tentiOns from young man IN the neigh
borhood, and also from Sylvsuus Burn
hsm, hired man who has been in the
employ OF Tritt tor three years. Sunday
evening Rooa's lover paid her visit,
which caused quarrel with Burnh
and he threatened her, saying that he
would get oven with his rival. He WAS
also incensed by Ross's b-cther
who wanted to whip him on Mon.
day, but was prevented by
the elder brother Last night the two
old folks were awakened by the light
and found the upper story OF the hou.e
on fire and Blrnhsm missing. The house
was consumed, with everything in it,
after which the corpse Of Rosa was found
In the ruins with her legs and arms
burned of, but there WAS enough evidence
to show that the girls throat had been
cut and deep wound in the side. She
had been also smothered IN large car
pet, SO that the trunk was not much
burned. The murderer WAS seen coming
into the city early this morning, but it Is
not known where he went. He was from
Tennessee and has relatives here. The
face OF Mrs. Tritt was badly scorched
when she tried to get up on discovering
the fire.
