last month, puzzled the wits OF the
police, and the detectives were sn at
sea, yet a couple of newspaper re-
porters found clue and IN an alter
noon had succeeded in "spotting"
the four boys implicated IN the muir
der. There are numerous instances
of this kind, late one being the case
of the girl Jennie Cramer. at New
Haven. The officers of the law went
about the business in the ordinary
way, held an inquest, found a YER
dict OF suicide, and there the matter
would have rested. no one being pun
ished, and suspicion resting upon no
body, had it not been for the news-
papers. The reporters kept digging
into the mystery, and at last demon
strated that an outrage and murder
had been committed, and while they
have already demonstrated beyond
doubt that the Malley Buys deiiber-
ately planned and executed the girls
ruin, they are in fair Vsy OF proving
that they were implicated IN her muir
der, il not the actual perpetrators.
Yet in this case, the Law officers
are complaining that the news
papers are interfering In such
way as to threaten the safe carriage
O. Justice. AS ia all other instances
the reporters are charged with being
indiscreet in their publications.
Everywhere there should be more
cordial feeling between the reporters
and the officers. The ordinary news
gatherer may be as safely trusted
With knowledge that the policeman
or marshal seeks to keep away from
him, as the officers themselves. He
is as anxious to prevent the failure
OF justice and as eager to punish
crime as the official, and as discreet
in his publications as the policeman
is in bis conduct. When we hear an
officer say, "if it were not for the
newspapers" he might do this or
that, the conclusion is forced upon the
mind that he doesn't understand his
business, and should at once retire
from a place which he is in no wise
qualified to occupy.

EDS. REvIEw-Your little daily is ray of
light from the scene of my happiest days.
NV childhood and youthful efforts were on
the banks of the beloved Susquehanna,w (which
since I have left this beautiful stream, is
doubly dear to me. l long to bask in the
sunshine and shadows of my native State DAY
by day; my passion for angling and hunting
add to my desire to go home from time to
time. There are yet still dearer ties that draw
me to the old play grounds; my mothers
grave, where flowers blossom and she'd sweet
perfumes, emblematic of her many virtues
and sweet disposition, the faces of my rela-
tiyes and dear friends, familiar rocks, streams
mountains, and the dear, dear old homestead.
It seems to me now that l can almost count
every stone for miles around the hills and
valleys of Wyalusing, and know the limbs of
the trees by heart
Twenty years have gone, and the changes
death and decay have wrought are many. To
enumerate them would open wounded hearts
and cause them to bleed afresh. Let us then
only behold the bright side Of the picture,
changes by time put forth. The thought that
out of the germ, points with power to our
only hope, that Heaven awaits the reunion OF
us all in the sweet bye and bye.
Iexpect with several other Syracusans to
spend week or so in Wyalusing in June.
We intend to put up with j. M. Brown and
put in full time fishing for black bass.
This city was alive with people yesterday.
IN, p;oSy m sci
and grand; more than 10000 people congre-
gated at Oak Wood Cemetery. Bishop Sims,
Chancellor of Syracuse University, delivered
the address.
Business is booming here; building and
improvements going on with rush; lots of
money and lots of push in our moneyed men.
Syracuse is destined to become large and
prosperous city in the near future. The salt
interest might be better, perhaps it will after
a while. Manufacture of steel springs, &C.,
by w. A. Sweet & Co., and chilled plows by
Bradley & Co. show much enterprise. The
electric light has been introduced and the
works are now run day and light.
Our parks and drives are lovely; the coun-
try all around us never looked more lovely.
An excursion from Bradford county to this
city would afford the greatest pleasure to all,
especially the young people. The most of us
are administration men.
Samuel Adams is doing good business
here handling the Loyal Sock coal. Sam is a
gentleman.

Launching a Ship.

Not onc-half the people who witness
the launching Of vessel can tell how il
is done. They hear a great sound Of
pounding and driving Of wedges for
half an honr or 80, then a loud shout il
raised, and the ship starts slowly at
first, but, gradually Increasing her
speed, slides with steady, stately mo
ton from off the pile of timber and
blocks where she has been standing for
months; and where but moment before
the huge creature lowered aloft, moth.
ing remains but debris OF timber and
planks, while out on the water floats
one Of the most graceful works Of man.
When the ship is about ready 10
launch her immense weight rests prin-
cipally upon blocks some eight or ten
inches square on the ends, and perhaps
some fifteen or eighteen inches in
length. These blocks are placed directly
under the keel, and in order to launch
the vessel it is necessary to transfer tho
weight ef the vessel TO the way-two
long lines Of heavy timber reaching
about two-thirds the length Of the YES
sci on either side, and about midway
the bilge or bottom. These WAYS aro
simply two lengths Of timber with
thick layer OF grease between
them, so that as soon "a the ship ac-
quircs any momentum they will slip one
along the other. To transfer the weight
Of the vessel on 10 these ways, 80 that
grayity-the stern or heaviest part Of tho
vessel being much lower than the bow
will causc her 10 move, is tho whole
secret Of launching To do this, be-.
tween the top Of the ways and the YES
sci are driven pine wedges, which, Of
course, raise her somewhat, and relieve
the blocks under the keel of part Of the
weight resting upon them. This done,
workmcn take their places under the
vessel, and with iron wedges cut and
knock away the blocks. When these
are removed, the entire weight of the
vessel settles at once upon the creased
ways, and the result is exactly the same
as would be if a person should seat him
self upon a sled pointing downhill upon
an icy slopc-away she goes,
There seems 10 be a strange sort Of
fascination for most people in the
launching Of large vessel, and in our
shipbuilding ports it is not uncommon
for thousand persons TO be present 10
enjoy the spectacle. Poae-'s Aweriodn
