nineteen bodies had been removed, and

forty, and asked, in the name OF humanity,
that something be done 10 prevent this

IIOIsT BY HIS OwN PETARD. - lancaster,
Pa, January 6.-George Barr, aged sixty
years, a tinsmith by trade, living at Stras-
burg, was fatally wounded by device OF
his own on Monday. Barr, who is very &C.
centric, was troubled by some boys, and, in
order to scare them away, he took an iron
box from The hub Of a carriage wheel. filed
it with powder, plugged the ends, leaving a
small hole through which to ignite the pow
der, and laid the box where the boys gene
rally met. He then ran a train Of powder
from the box to place where he concealed
himself, and waited for the boys TO come.
When they appeared he set the powder off,
and an explosion followed. The boys es-
capped injury, but Barr was not so fortu-
nate. Pieces OF wood entered his body and
legS, inf citing wounds from the effects OF
which he will probably die.

OF INTEREST TO TELEPHONE suBscRrBeRs

OF INTEREST TO TELEPHONE sUBsCRIBERs
The transfer Of the wires OF the Telephone
Exchange from the old central office, cor-
ner OF Thirteenth and Main streets, to tle
new one, corner OF Ninth street, is nearly
completed. The wires Of the Edison CON-
pany, which since the consolidation have
remained in the Western Union Office, are
already removed, and in few days all the
wires will radate from the Piedmont build
| ing. The work Of removal, like all "mov-
ingS," has occasioned considerable confu-
sion, and consequent annoyance to sub
scribers, and the cause has not been under
stood by everyone. We Ire assured that
there will be i'm future little reasonable
ground OF complaint OF the service.
The manager, Mr. Tracy, is inde-
fatigable in his endeavors to have things
put in perfect working order. He is pro-
posing some notifications which augur
well. One is the offer Of separate wire to
each subscriber on graduated scale OF
prices according TO distance from the GEN.
tral Office. Another is callel the "law
system" OF service. A ''lOng wire" is
run from the central Office (0r as many as
may be needed in addition &c the regular
wires, each connecting, perhaps. seventy
five or a hundred subscribers. At the end
OF each "lOng wire" in the central office
sits an operator with the telephone conin-
ually at his ear. The subscriber presses a
spring in his office, which connects his tele-
phone with the "long wire," but does not
ring any bell; then he speaks TO the opera
tor. For convenience the subscribers may

he says concisely, "2j on 49," The opera

he repeats the order TO the switchman the
subscriber hears aud knows be has been
understood. lets 20 the spring. and the

wires, he proceeds with his communication.
When he has finished he can press the
spring again and say, "DiscODnect % and

4 SUIT ABOUT CHURCH PROPERTY
Gnte-6eitum issue between tAe northern and
southern parishes Of the Presbyterian
Church at st. Louis has been revived by Il
salt commenced at st. Louis. The property
in litigation is the Walnut-Street church,
which has become much increased in value
since the split in the congregation, when
one side chose to adhere to the Union and
the other to the Coniedcracy. The Union
section retained possession OF the building,
and now the other body claims to have con-
tinued the real Walnut-Street Presbyterian
church, and that the property should have
remained in their possession.

Ring-Wearing Gentlemen.


Gentlemen in England have very general

clean and out OF danger Of knocks and
blows. Nor are we unaccuStOmed TO the
examples OF anuular gorgeousness-nOta-

are not so cared for. But this is not the
ring-wearing of the gentlemen in England.
| There small rings set with stones are in
| favor. Diamonds set in heavy hoops,
rubies as eyes in the heads OF golden
snakes which coil three or four times
around the finger. diamonds and rabies,
diamonds and sapphires. in alienation, are
seen upon the fingers OF most OF the men
who are above the lower middle class-nO-
blemen, clergymen. army officers, univer-
sity dons, hard-headed men of affairs, mer-
chants. Not one ring only; indeed, sim
Gle ring upon mans hand is rather cX-
eeDtional. You will see a big fellow with
big brown hands, or an elderly man OF staid
business habits, with three or even four
jewellcd riKgs upon his fingers; not
urfrequently there would be two upon one
finger. The turquoise is in great favor
the most unmanly and woman-propcr Of all
precious stones in my Judgment most
suitable to the fairest and softest OF the
sex. 1t is frequently alternated with the
diamond on heavy hoop. wide space be-
