hon. CHARLES J. F0LGER,
The New Secretary Of the Treasury

The vacancy occasioned by the death
of Chief Justice Church, of the Court Of
Appeals of the State of New York. was
filled by the appointment of Judge
Charles J. Folger, of Geneva, one of
the two Republicans elected in 1870,
when the court was reorganized, who
held the position until Oct. ~, when
his nomination as Secretary of the
Treasury was promptly confirmed by
the Senate. He is now the incumbent
of position to which his learning, ex-
perience. energy and jud gment emil
nently adapt him. Prior to 1870, the
new Secretary of the Treasury was a
County Judge. and sat for several terms
in the State Senate with the father of
Governor Cornell.
Judge Folger was born in 1919, in
an old-fashioned, double-fron: wooden
house, which is located on the highest
portion of Orange street, in the town of
Nantucket, overlooking the island and
harbor. His father, Walter Folger,
was q man of exceptional parts. Be-
fore the age of 20 he had acquired a
good knowledge of algebra, logarithms,
.gauging and navigation. He also I'M.
'derstood surveying as practiced by lat
itude tables then in vogue.
The strong traits of the family are
preserved to a remarkable degree in
later generations. Judge Folger is q
gentleman of the highest legal attain
ments and great general experien &c.
He has for half century resided in
New York State, where he has secured
a large circle of friends and admirers.
The new cabinet officer will find his
duties in every way congenial, and the
people have entire confidence not only
In his judgment, but in his integrity.

Another terrible mill disater oc.

Another terrible mill disater oc
CURED in Minneapolis early Sunday
morning. -Four Touring mills and.
one cotton mill were completely de.
stroyed by fire, entailing lows of
$416, 500. The mills destroyed swere
named the Empire Mil, & s Pillsbury
Mil, Excelsior Nil, 8 owned BY.
g. "a. Pillsbury &Co., and the ssMin-
neapolis Mill, owned by Croker,
Fisk & Co. The cotton mill was
owned by D. Morrison who is also
heavy loser by the Excelsior Mill.
The fire originated in the basement
Of the Empire Mill and was discov-
cred when yet in its incipiency, but
the flames spread so rapidly that
nothing could be done to stay their
progress by the few men at work in
the mill at the time. The fire depart
ment responded promptly to the
alarm but they also were unable to
stay the progress Of the flames. But
the fremen worked hard and hoped
to con6ne the fire within the two build
ings first enveloped, when, with a
suddenness that knows no descrip.
ton, the roof of the Minneapolis mill
Of Croker, Fisk & Co. parted, the
front and rear walls fell out, and the
explosion was concluded with con-
cussion which shook with an awful
power all the massive structures in
the locality, SCATTERING the glass in
windows blocks away, and bringing
men and women from their beds and
morning maps into the presence of an
awful calamity Assistant Chief En-.
gineer Fredericks and John Tuhey, a
member Of hose Go. No. 3, and three
mill hands were buried in the ruins
and instantly killed, and several
others we're seriously injured So fal
as can be learned, all those killed by
the explosion were single men, and II
is some slight consolation to know
that sorrowing widows and helpless
little ones are not left behind tc
mourn their fearful ending. The
mills destroyed had a capacity of g.
800 barrels, being about one-tenth o.
the Minneapolis milling capacity.

The towns of Caldwell and Hun
newell, Kansas, have been greatly
excited the past few days over the
suspension Of their respective banks.
The president and cashier of the
suspended banks were making off
with the funds when overhauled
by the Infatuated depositors. Armed
men are patrolling the streets and
the dishonest bankers are likely to
be Maxwellized unless money due
depositors j. produced. The civil
authorities are powerless to protect
the bankers from mob violence and
if the Governor undertakes to send
militia to the scene Of the disturb.
ance the trains will be wrecked.

It is the general opinion that the
most fatally damaging testimony that
has yet been offered against Guiteau
is that furnished by himself, while un-
dergoing cross.examination by Judge
Porter last week. Out Of Guiteau's
own mouth the prosecution has
shown, as it could have done by no
other means, that the plea Of irres-
possibility and the pleaof . supposed
supernatural impulse are untenable.
Guiteau's own confession says that
his act was dictated BY 2 vindictive
determination to be revenged for
disapp ointmellts. II is. very gener-
ally conceded that the de ense made
. mistake ia putting Guiteau on the
stand, but the country will not gr,lm-
bleif the jury convicts the assassin
on his own testimony. q

Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, DC, Nov. 80, 1881.
If Ex-senator ChaEee is made
Postmaster General, and General
Edward Beale. Secretary of the Navy, J,
as it is believed 10 poll tical circles,
and hoped in society clrcles, there
will be, III the Cabinet, the sinews
of q gay, fashionable season. Both
of these gentlemen are Immensely.
wealthy, and one Of them, General
.Beale, has strong social predellc.
lions, with the advantage Of long
stay in Washington, and train
ing in Vienna, the most aristocratic
court in Europe, where he was Unit.
ed States Minister during Gen.
Grants presidency. Ex-senator
Chaffee is, like the President, wi.
dover, but his daughter, who mar.
ricd a son of General Grant, will
perhaps preside over his home, as.
sisted at receptions by her mother
in-law. Young Mrs. Grant vas ed
ucated in Paris and is, I am told, q
thoroughly accomplished woman.
It is curious to note how, year by
year, social official life in Washing
ton is conforming more and more to
European court models, and under
the social influences that are likely
to prevail during the next four years
this conformation will probably go
on. It was noticed that, in the re.
ceptions held by the President dur.
ing the recent visit of the French
and German guests, he did not stand
still and receive while the guests
filed by and shook hands in the old
conventional way, but he waited
until all the guests had assembled
and then, entering the room walked
up and exchanged greetings with
each one in the circle. This, / be-
lieve, is the Continental way,
though not the English. It is the
way in which, according to Ma
dame Remusat, Napoleon the Great
received his guests. It he's certain.
ly some advantages over the old
way. Some change would seem in.
dispcnsable for, owing to the
traditional democratic accessibility
of the President on reception occa-
sions, the increase of population al
the capital, and the ease with which
the White House may he reached
from all parts of the country ard by
all classes of people the reception
ceremonial under the old form was
becoming to onerous for mortalman.
It has not been uncommon in pas
time, for the president to stand fol
three hours and shake hands con,
stantly with passing heterogene
Gus throng.
The contest for the speakership il
becoming daily more lively. About
one.third of the Republican mem
bers have arrived in the city, anc
are domiciled for the session. A,
present, Mr.. Hiscock of New Yorl
seems to have the largest support
but he lacks many Of having ma
jority of the Republican members
and his two most formidable rivals
Kasson, Of Iowa and Kiefer, O
Ohio, are active and hopeful. It il
not improbable that the contest be
tween the two last named gentle
men will result in deadlock, ii
which case, Mr.. Orth, of Indiana
Mr.. Burrows, Of Michigan; or Mr.
Dunnell, of Minnesota will draw
from their support. At any rate
we will know the result of the eau
Gus nomination before next Mon
day, and there is no longer doub
that the Republican caucus viii
name the next speaker.

A Boy in Il Cyclone.

Ny son Werner A. House, while on the
road from Atchison, last week, was riding
with gentleman on horseback, about dusk
Thursday evening, northeast of Emporia,
when the great cyclone struck them. He
drove ahead few rods. when he saw the
man whom he had left but a few moments be-
fore killed by the terrible monster. The
horse was knocked to the ground and Killed.
He rode to house where some men had
gathered to get from the storm, and while in
the house the roof was taken off, but none of
the inmates harmed. He then went to the
barn for protection, but that was blown one
way and then another until he was forced to
find protection IN gutter. He said the
storm gathered in the heavens and looked
like great dark cloud in the shape Of a fun
mel. with the small portion at the base, and
as the storm increased it grew lsrger at the
base. He said trees, boards. ETC., were fly
ing in the air, and he had all he could do to
keep out of their way. He said that what
struck and split the man in two looked like
fire.-CoLden Gate.
