LAST NIGHTS FIRE.

Stable Burned in the Eighth Ward.
Last evening between 6 and O'Clock,
frame stable situated in the rear of the
house of Mrs. Catherine Doerr, widow, at
532 Manor street. was discovered to be on
fire. The alarm being sounded, several
fire companies were soon on the ground,
and the fire was extinguished before the
building was entirely destroyed. The
roof and upper part were burned, together
with about a half ton of hay, hay cutter,
and some butcher tools. A horse and two
hogs were saved. A portion of the build
ing was used as a slaughter house, imme-
diately over which, in the hay NOV, the
fire was first seen. The fire was an incen-
diary's work, and it was likely started by
some one acquainted with the premises
Between four and half past four o'clock in
the afternoon the hired man was in the
stable when all was right. The building,
which was almost new, was insured in the
Lycoming company for 5000.

Tho Pardon Refused.

After the argument at Harrisburg on
Saturday before the pardon board, for
nearly two hours the members discussed
the situation before arriving at decision.
Messrs. Quay and Dunkel favored the par
don of the five applicants and Messrs.
Palmer and Stone opposed it, the former
with considerable feeling. Lieutenant
Governor Stone says the premature appli-
cation entered considerably into the dis
cussion, but he would not say that it had
a controlling influence on the members
who voted against favorable recommen-
dation. The lieutenant governor says the
proposition to hold session two days be-
fore the time fixed for imposition
of the sentence never struck him
favorably, and he only agreed to
attend out of courtesy and when
informed that the board should be fully
represented at the meeting. The attor-
ney general took similar view of the mat
ter. The action of the board will compel
Mr.. Kemble and his associates to undergo
Imprisonment if they appear for sentence
to-day, as a proposition to hold a meet
ing to-day was opposed by Palmer and
Stone and withdrawn because of it's inev-
liable defeat. The decision of the bo
against the applicants for pardon was
a great Disappointment to counsel for the
defense, as they had anticipated a favor
able verdict. The confidence exhibited
showed, mo abatement. Representative Rum
berger was the only defenant in the city,
and he expected a more cOnsoling deliver
ance. Counsel for the prosecution had
predicted for several days that the board
would be equally divided, but they began
to fear that their expectations would not
be realized, owing, no doubt, to the un-
bounded confidence of the attorneys for
the defense. Wolf is delighted with the
action of the board, but says the spirit Of
vindictivness finds no place in his breast.

but at a meeting held Thursday evening,
the board of managers refused to reinstate
him, and expelled a reporter of the Eagle

published unfair reports of their proceed
ings.

soft tissue, and later about one-half the
cavity was closed by a new bony formation

and adults yesterday afternoon, and the
exercises were Of an interesting character.
There were singing, praying, scripture,
readings, talks, and recitations by the

being the resurrection of Christ. In one
corner of the school room stood large
table laden with colored eggs, which had
been furnished by friends of the school.

A Deserted Man.

In all the discussions about the presi-
dency nobody seriously mentions Mr..
Hayes. The Bellefonte IVdtchn1an sug-
gests that if the next campaign is to be
waged solely on the fraud issue and the
Republicans will put up Hayes, the DEM
Ocrats can afford to run Tilden and let
the people pass on the disputed title, but
there is no intimation that the Republi-
cans want any such issue shaped. Their
president is not counted factor in the
present struggle. Even his alleged back
ing of Sherman is not deemed fOrInitia-
bic element of strength to his secretary,
and as to himself, nobody, unless posi-
bly, Erring Brother Key, his ex-Confed-
crate postmaster general, has proposed in
earnest that Hayes shall be a candidate
for reelection. His own one term decla-
ration does not of course stand in the
way, for if he had other qualities to rec
ommend him his reluctance to press his
claims should only be an additional ele-
ment of strength with that section oflthe
party whose favor he has seemed to
court. But no voice declares for him.
The Yale professors are out in a recon-
mendation of Edmunds; Bishop Simpson
and Henry Ward Beecher are supposed
to be for Grant; Geo. William Curtis is
disgusted at Hayes's betrayal of civil ser
vice reform; even Ohio has no good word
for him, and taking one consideration
with another his political lot is far from
a happy one.
Mr.. Hayes has not been very bad
man, however weak he has shown him
self to be :; and weaker and worse men
than he have, with the patronage and po-
sition which he has had for three years,
made themselves great political powers.
The trouble with Hayes and the cause of
his pitiable present predicament is the
shadow on his title. 1t has hung over
the White House ever since he went into
it. His own party have made him the
scapegoat of their crime and the Democ-
racy have looked upon him as the wrong
full possessor of stolen goods. No man
could live in peace, or with the respect of
any community, on property of which
all his neighborS believed that he had
come into the unrighteous possession even
on technical point. With the present oc-
cupancy of the presidency the case is one
of now almost universal acknowledgment
and belief in the utter fraudulency of
his title. Time has not cured the
wrong which was perpetrated to
secure it. Instead of being washed
in the waters of Lethe and
forgotten, the shuffling hypocrisy and
double-faced dealing of the present ad-
ministration have only recalled more
vividly the circumstances under which
it came into power. The ghost of that
fraud will not down. 1t adds fresh bur-
den to the weight that handicaps the
Republican party in the pending cam
paign; it finds it the most difficult of
all responsibilities to get rid of =; and
Mr.. Hayes cannot contribute one iota to
relieve his party from the embarrassment
occasioned it by the crime of which he
was the beneficiary.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Private tele-
grams received from Texas this evening

delegates from that state chosen yesterday
are Blaine men. As the convention
adopted the unit rule, it gives Mr.. Blaine
the entire delegation if that rule is en-
forced.

result of the Republican state convention
here is an overwhelming victory for Gen.
Grant and the rout of the treasury depart

sixteen delegates at Chicago fourteen are
for Grant. The adoption of a resolution
to cast the vote of Texas as a unit is
equivalent to instructing for Grant.

MONDAY EVENING. MARCH 20, 1880.
A Queer Fish.

The Philadelphia Times is publishing
sketches of presidential candidates which
are very creditable to their authors, who
seem to understand their subjects and to
be able to tell what they know. II. v.
Boynton, who was entrusted with that
very odd stick, Mr.. Hayes, paints his
character very freely and impartlally,
and seems to have got down to its secret
springs with great success. He admits
that the surest way not to get All ap-
pointment was to follow the instruction
which Hayes himself gave to applicants,
namely, that they should stick to it and
bring all the influence to bear that they
can secure. This advice Mr.. Hayes gave
to an acquaintance of Boynton's, who is
still pursuing it without success. And yet
Mr.. Boynton doubts whether Hayes can
be justly charged with double-deaiing, as
he universally is by the congress
men who get his promise and sell
dom get the Offices. 1t is, Mr.. Boyn-
ton explains, generally only an under
taking on the part of Hayes to favorably
consider a request which he has probably
already decided not to grant. 1t is not
quite easy to see wherein this is less than
"dOuble-dealing;'' it is perhaps some
thing less than saying {" 1 will when
meaning" WON'T" but the distinction
is scarcely perceptible. The popularity
of Mr.. Hayes's disposition seems to be a
strong indisposition to acknowledge any
claim upon him of those who think they
have claims, and an ambition to show
himself perfectly independent while
at the same time he utterly fails in the
courage to exhibit this independence in
the faces of men or perhaps it is not
so much lack of courage as it is delight
in deceiving, natural to his jesuitica
temperament. Mr.. Boynton gives hin
credit for having secured greater hon
esty in the administration of public
affairs than prevailed under Grant
while at the same time hi
shows that this has been done il
spite of the natural dishonesty of Hayes
and of his indifference as to the honesty
of his appointees and his reluctance te
remove them when this is exhibited
as notably shown in the case of Assistant
Postmaster General Brady; so that i
seems that Grant, naturally honest him
self, surrounded himself with thieves
while Hayes, at heart dishonest, ha!
generally had men about hin
who have conducted the affair;
in their charge with reasonable
honesty. That Hayes is hypocrite o
the first water has long been the genera
opinion, which Mr.. Boynton's sketcl
confirms that he has had good inten
tions has been suspected, and this toe
seems to have been the fact that he il
thick-skinned and conceited is evident
from the imperturbability with which III
goes on his winding way, nOtwithstand
ing the abundant criticism which would
have made a sensitive man drop dow
with shame. He is certainly a quee
creature.
