the Objectionable measures that were
attempted but failed, we are inclined,
upon the whole, to put the present Legis-
lature down as somewhere about an aver
age, and to hope for still better things
this winter. Above all things it is i'm
portant for the members of the Hamilton
County delegation to keep clear of the
scheming and trickery of the corrupt rings
that figure in the municipal affairs of
this city. People are becoming more
than ever determined that there shall be
an end of the corrupt practices from
which the city has suffered, and the man
in the Legislature that lends himself to
the rings against the people, will do we'll
to arrange his affairs before leaving, so as
not to be under the necessity Of return
ing even for a temporary stay in Cincin-
natl We do not believe there are many
if any such in the delegation. Most OF
our representatives are men of large in
terests and good standing in this commu-
nifty, who can not afford to barter with
rings and have not the disposition to DO
so. At least that is the opinion the peo-
pie still have of them, and we hope this
opinion will not be changed during the
coming session of the Legislature.

A MAN SHOT FOR DEER.-On Sunday
afternoon last two young men of New Ian
caster, this county, Solomon Dean. age about
twenty-one years. and George Dobson,
year or two older, went out hunting but
neither knew of the other being out.
Young Dean laid down alongside of a fence
at clearing to watch for turkeys, when
Dobson came slipping along, and, seeing
Dean, mistook him for deer and fired.
Running to his fallen game, he was horror
stricken to find he had shot a man. The
alarm was given, and Dean was carried to
the house of Joseph Knepp, the blood mean
while squirting from hole in his back. DIR.
Swigert, of Bannerville, was sent for when
it was found that the ball had passed into
the right lung little below the shoulder
blade, passing downward and forward. An
| examination was made in front, and the
| ball was felt lying under the skin, it having
passed directly through the right lung.
Young Dean was yet living on Monday
| morning. but there was no hope OF his re-
covery. The agony of Dobson when he
found ont what he had done was beyond all
description. He begged the bystanders to
lake Deans still loaded gun and shoot him.
His own gun he smashed to pieces on a
rock. Young Dean had been urged by his
father not to go hunting on Sunday, but he
did not heed. Dobson helped to carry the
wounded man and then fled, and has not
been seen or heard Of SINCE Lewistown

A Fox HUNT IN LIGHT CosTUME.-By
special invitation the members of the Elk
ridge Fox Hunting Club of Baltimore, with
some of their dogs, took part in fox hunt
which came off on Saturday at Columbia,
in the neighborhood of Carroll's Manor
The strong westerly wind prevented the
dogs from following up the scent of the
fox successfully, but several fine runs were
made. The horse Demonstraor, full
brother to Problem, showed his pedigree by
some fine jumping in siff places, as did
several of the other horses. After the hunt
fine lunch was partaken of at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Wyman, to which the sports
men, with keen appetites after the days
riding and sport, did full justice. All re-
turned safely to town in the evening, none
the worse after gallop of forty-tive miles.
The costume of the club men was topped
boots red vests with brass buttons, bearing
the monogram of the Elkridge Fox-hunting
| Club, and black coats.

HOMIing Hogan.

There was another row last evening dur
ing the meeting of the Police Commission
ers. Mr. Patrick ]. Hogan, whose temper
has of late been getting away with him,
wanted bill of VIM. Lynn & Co., for fur
nishing heater and tank for the Infrm-
ary, paid. The bill was not approved by
Mr.. Samuel e. Bell superintendent of the
Infrmary. A lively squabble then ensued
between Hogan and Miller, and the former
excitedly arose, called Miller banked bull
headed Superintendent, blanked himself,
called the Board a BANKED Board etc.
Finally, after venting his wrath on every
thing and every one, he left the room, but
returned in short time.
He next picked up an inoffensive chair,
and twirling it around hurled it across the
room and smashed it into splinters This
seemed to cool his anger, and then he sat
down, but took no further part in the bust
ness of the meeting Pat. ought to take a

THE tissue paper ballot, which it is
claimed was used to effect fraud at the
late elections, is Baltimore invention.
No city in the country is responsible for
more of the present corrupt practices at
elections than Baltimore. Fraud, swim
ding, intimidation and general skull
duggery at the polls received great i'm
petus in the Monumental City in the
days when the Thugs, Blood-tubs, Rip
Raps and Plug Uglies were wont to meet
the Hibernians and the New Market
Boys and fight out the pending issues, SC
that the stronger party might take pos
session of the polls, drive away voters

IT is not always those who dance who
have to pay the fiddler, so San Francisco
finds to her cost in regard to the July
Anti-Chinese riots of 1877. A large
number of suits have been brought
against the city for damages sustained
and goods destroyed at that time. In
several cases judgments have been OBJ
tanned by customers for losses in linen
by the burning of the Chinese laundries.
Some of these bills recovered would
indicate that the ordinary Californian
either sported large expanse of linen or
that he very seldom sent it to the wash.
One judgment was for $50, while another
footed up $161 70. Riots at best are a
very expensive amusement, the cost of
which very generally falls upon inno-
cent shoulders

evening for Norfolk All the young Indians
will be sent to school for three years. Thir-
teen of the party are Rees, from Fort Ber-

Cheyenne, Crow Creek and Standing Rock
Agencies. The Rees were rather wild

streaming in the wind, and wearing miscel-

over their heads. The Sioux looked as If

of twelve summers was interesting
enough to cause one of the steamboat
officers to remark that he would like to
adopt her. She looked really like bank-note

dress and general behavior quite up to the
average of many lads to be met with every
day among civilized people. All had lived
on reservations four or five years, and the
Sioux have some education in their native

take questioner long to find
that John Robb," the name he has taken
from his benefactor, is young gentleman.
A little hoodlum, all smiles and capers, was
introduced as Charley White Bull, brother
of John Robb. Charley looked as though
he could enjoy the same kind of fun that
white boys are fond of. John Robb said
their father and mother are living, and they
expect to return to their parents at the end
of three years. One of the Rees is son OF

In a little over six weeks the Ohio
Legislature will again be in session.
Matters of great Importance to this city
will be brought before it, and people will
look with great interest at the positions
taken by the members of our delegation.
1t is really the work OF the last session
that settles the fate of the statesman.
People sometimes forget the work of the
first year, but everything that is done dur
ing the last winter of his term is remem-
bered for all time to come. We said
none of the hard things against the pres
ent Legislature that have been INDUCED
in by many of our cotemporaries of both
parties. Some mistakes were made last
winter, and pressures were brought to
push through a number of laws that
never ought to have been passed. But
affairs might have been much worse, and
when we remember the number of really
good laws that were made, and
