a LUNATIC's FREAK.
A Crazy Man Did the Shooting
On the Nj. and G. RailrOad
Yesterday.

For awhile yesterday the mysterious
shooting of Engineer Elliot by an un-
known mar out near the fair grounds,
promised to give the detectives some
little trouble. They took special car
and went out to the scene of action
about noon, where they found an old
negro woman living in a cabin, a short
distance away, WHO said that about
two OF three hours before the fr, light
train anne along, a tall man, in a white
felt hat, heavy gold chain and gold
headed cane raped at her door and
asked for "a match, which she gave him
through a crack Of the door. The
man went off saying he was in charge
Of a lot of convicts and she saw him
raise his stick when he got to the door
of vacant freight box
which had been left on the
track, and beat a man over the head
as if to make him get back in the car.
When the shot was fred at the en-
queer, five men were seen to scramble
from a freight box and run of through
the woods. As soon as the man shot
he advanced upon the car aud the
fireman unlinked the engine from the
tender and sped away with it, leaving
the boxes on the track; and not stop
ping until he reached " hite's station,
four miles away. The section boss
says the engine passed him as he stood
aboat five hundred yards away and the
engineer nodded to him as if nothing
! ad happened.
The brakesmol Of the freight train
knew nothing of what had occurred
until the passenger train came by, two
hours after, bringing the freight en-
CINE. All these things tended to
complicate the affair and the detec
tives began to look blue, when it was
solved in the simplest manner
A man answering the description Of
the shootist was arrested on Beal
street for smashing up things goner-
ally yesterday evening, and when
questioned at the stationhoue acknowl-
edged to have done the shooting. He
said he wanted the train to stop,
and couldn't turn off the switch so
damn him, he shot him. His name is
Billy Crafty, and he has been engaged
as porter at several places, but is BOW
out Of employment, lie is subject to
temporary Ats of insanity and did the
shooting during one Of them. He will
be tried tor lunacy to-day by Esquire
Quigley, This morniDg he was worse
and making tho court yard OF the sta
ton house ring with his wild yells
He, not long since, broken into the hall
Of the Knights Of Innisfall and created
a disturbances. The persons seen
with him were doubtless tramps.

SHARPER THAN HIS LAWYER,
who is willing to Give Him One
Near.

Some weeks ago Constable NJ. t.
Garvin procured a warrant to search
TIE premises ofRobert Taylor for two
rings suspected to have been stolen
by them Taylor's wife assisted at the
ceremony of searching the trunk and
succeeded in "palming" the rings.
The eagle eye Of the constable fell
upon this little side play, however,
and he arrested Taylor and his wife.
The grand jury upon a knowledge Of
the fact that the woman was in deli
cate health ignored the bill as
against her, but it found a
true bill against tho man. The case
came up for trial before the criminal
court yesterday, and Attorney Scot
counsel for defendant, arose and said
May it please the court, the attorney
general and | have held a %consulta.
ton and agree that the prisoner at
the bar take one year in the penitcn-
tiary without trial.
mo | won't exclaimed Taylor
you lawyers can agree to anything
you want to, but | ain I a going to ne
penitentiary.
The court decided that he had
right to trial, and the jury was soor
in possession of the testimony, but tn,
proof was SO deficient that they were
compelled to return a verdict of "noI
guilty" and Taylor TIPPED his hat
over his LEFT car and marched
gaily out into the open air, ignoran.
enough to believe that freedom by bis
own efforts was better than captivity
by the efforts Of the law.

In his Clerical Capacity.


They settled Parson Posey in the quiet
country town;
He seemed exactly suited to their
need,
But on the second Sunday he remarked
to Mrs. Brown:
"Your social life is very dull, indeed ~
And so the genial, eloquent, and gentle
Parson Posey,
Who sought to give the parish more
viyacity,
Just started Copenhagen" "ring-around-
a-rosy."
And played them in his clerical ca
pacity.
Quite brotherly and sisterly they soon
began to be;
And when he saw the social parties
thrive,
He said: Now this is spirited, and it
appears to NE
Much more as if the parish was
aliver'
He introduced the forfeit games, in
structed how to play them,
And followed up the plan with peril
nacitv.
But when they gathered forfeits, and
wondered how to pay them,
He showed them-in his clerical ca
pacity.
I'VE ought to do to others as we'd have
them do to us"
He said with earnest emphasis; but
then
Whenever he performed the solemn duty
of buss,
He skipped the ancient maidens and
the men.
II do discriminate; it is not surprising,
il it?"
He asked. "They might exhibit some
pugnacity;
And so when ] encounter them upon my
weekly visit,
Iskip them in my clerical capacity"
And so the faithful Posey, of the species
labiate,
Revolving his parishiOners among,
Remarks to the trustees: at is good to
recreate;
To prosper, we must interest the
youngT
And if a man observes to him: you do
exhibit feeling,
He winks his eye and whispers with
sagacity,
81 sacrifice myself to keep the parish
from cOngealing-
suffer in my clerical capacity"

Wool Production Of 1870 i'm the
United States

Mr.. James Lynch, of New York, gives
the following in regard to the produc-
tion of wool in the United States last
year:
Washed-on sheep, tub-wash- 1879.
ed and pulled, fb ...... 133,OOO,OOO
California washed and un-
washed .......... 100000
Oregon, Nevada, Washington
Territory, Utah, etc. -. 100000
Colorado and New Mexico :. 100000
Texas 100000
Sundry Southern and South
western States .......... 9,5OO,OOO
Total production, 1879. 232,50O,000
Total production 1878 80. 211,600,000
Total production 1877 ...... 0S,250,0O0
The report shows an increase in the
clip nearly everywhere except in Texas,
which is unexpectedly short of the pro-
duct of 1878. The clip has been nearly
all sold, and seems to fall below con-
sumption about 64,O00,OOO pounds, not
withstanding that manufacturers hold
more wool than in the former year..
The big boom in trade start
ed in the last six months of 1879,
and manufacturers instead of carrying
large stocks of goods are now working
on contracts, and the capacity for turn
ing out goods has been enlarged. The
prospects of the trade are now consider
ed very encouraging, and it is thought
the consumption of wool in 1880 will
reach 35O,OO0,0O0 pounds, of which prob
ably more than One-third will be i'm
ported.
