the election in Stafford for members of Parlia-

Long Branch Cor. In New York Wofio.
One of the many incidents that occur
ed here this morning illustrates the spirit
which animates every one here The
teams for hauling the iron and wooden
sleepers for the special track were all vol
unfairly contributed by the New Jersey
farmers, who also directed the trackmas-
ter to take all the clay and earth that
was needed for balancing the track from
their farms. Everybody was only too
anxious to help. Among the throng of
ladies and gentlemen who were watching
the progress of thu work was one little
lad, Willie Scott, the son of summer resi-
dent here, from New York He watched
the laborers for long time, amid the
conversation of the group around him.
Suddenly an idea seemed to strike him.
and darting out towards where the men
were driving the spikes through the rails
into the sleepers, he asked one of the la
borers, "Sir, would 3ou please let ne
drive one spike into that rsilf' The brsw-
ny man comprehended the little lads de-
sire and immediately handed him the
hammer, saying: am afraid, me little
boy, it's rather q heavy job for you; but
go ahead and try"
The little lad grasped the hammer
shortly, and when the laborer had placed
the spike for him he began his work. 1t
took many hard blows from his little
arm, but with the assistance of the Ia
borer who struck every alternate blow,
the spike was finally driven home, and
tue little fellow came over to his father
with proud look on his face, saying:
well, have done something for the
President, haven't 1, paa''

g. Chspmsn, of New York. asking that
q Receiver he appointed for the Ohio and

administration of the office of Receiver,
and IS be had received his appointment
from Judge Drummond, he would now
ask to withdraw his resignation as Re
ceiver snd ask an esrly and thorough
investigation of his administration of
the trust. Judge Matthews SAID that this

to withdraw his resignation and ask al

TOO MUCH RELIGION
sends q Young ST. Louis Lawyer 70
An Insane Asylum.
st. Louis Republican.

The idea of lawye. being crazed by
too much religious meditation has In II
40 much novelty that it Is absolutely
startling, yet that q case OF the KIND mas
occurred in st. Louis, an examination OF
the police records of yesterday Will
show. In the morning well known
citizen applied to the authorities at the
-Four Courts for an officer to arrest his
son. The name of the man to be ar
rested was given as John w. Pauley, and
II was said that he could be found in ms
Office on the south side of Pine street,
between Fifth and Sixth. Officer Kelly,
who started to make the arrest. was
warned to be on his guard, as Pau
lev had armed himself, and his lunacy
had begun to be violent Finding the door
of the office open, the Off ,er looked In
cautiously and his eyes fell on table on
which were conspicuously displayed q
large dirk knife and pistol. A young
man sat at little distance absorbed In
reading the Bible Kelley took advan-
tsge of his absorption, and by quick
movement secured the weapons, the
young man as ne did so springing up and
CRYING out, You villain" He was per-
suaded to go the Four Courts, where he
carried his Bible with him. 1t was some
thing of curiosity in the building and
Pauley feared tnat it would be taken
from him His watch and jewalry were
left at the bar of the Central Station, as
is customary in such cases, and he was
cal ried down stairs to cell, still keep
ing q firm hold on his Bible, which 1t
was thought best not to take away.
LET me keep it," he begged. Il may
convert some poor sinner. On his way
to the cell he WAS very anxious to stop
and exh ort TO repentance the sinners whom
he passed His relations will have
him cared for in some institution
for the insane-probably St Vincents.
He is young man of good family, aud
though there may be something of the
lud1crous at first glance in his malady,
his case is, in reality, very sad one. He
has received the best education in law
and literature, and was just commencing
career which might have been q bright
one. For time he was with Judge Van
Wagner, who now fills the bench of the
Court of Criminal Correction. For some
time he has shown an inclination to make
a constant study of religious subjects,
and this idea finally 50 possessed him
that he thought of nothing else. Mys
teries, which the best human thought has
failed to fathom since the foundation of
the world, attracted him, and his study
served only to leave them mysteries,
while his intellect, which would have
solved them, is left in ruins.
