Governor Bagley of Michigan left a
clause in his will which reads: "My
children one and all shall be educated in
this country and not abroad, as it is my
sincere desire that they may grow up to
be sincere Americans and lovers Of their
native land and her institutions" 1t is a
good precedent and sentiment to multi
tude of rich Americans. Young people
educated in foreign universities too often
loose their love aud reverence for Ameri-
can institutions.

DR.. Hamilton tells the following story ::
On Saturday when every one had almost
entirely abandoned hope, the President
got off his little joke. During the late
election, when Florida was in doubt, Gen
eral Swain was continually in the habit
Of saying to him, General, you don't in
tend to give up Florida, do you?' until
it passed inte byword. Well, on Sat
urday General Garfield saw that the phy-
sicans had about abandoned hope, and
turning to General Swain. who was pres
ent, he said, General you don't intend
to give up Florida, do you?" The face
at the same time was illuminated with a
smile. The joke was so patent and turn
ed 50 neatly on Genetal Swain that all
laughed, and even Mrs Garfield. whose
eyes were suffused with fears, could not
help indulgins in a smile.
If penny subscriptions are to be the or
der of the day to make up handsome funds
for meritorous people, there should be
Iowa, whose health has been shattered
by exposure while saving passenger
train from being destroyed during storm
on the night Of July 9Th. Slapping an
impcrtinent fellows face for making an
unpatrotic remark may be well enough in
its way, but risking ones life to save the
lives of people in imminent danger is a
sort Of service that will wear better in
the long run and should be better paid.
Schuylkill county is suffering terribly
from the drought. Mahanoy Plane is,
without doubt, the greatest sufferer in
the county for the want of water. Par
ties supplying the people from Frackville
charge twenty-five cents per barrel A
number of collieries in and around Shen-
andoah have suspended work for want of
water. The people of that place have
been put on half rations for two weeks
past.

A Boston WOman's First Vote.

| A very amusing comment upon GER
tain phase of the woman's suffrage ques-
ton is told by one of the tellers at the
last city election in Boston, and vouch-
ell for by him as absolutely true. A
woman well known in strong minded
circles came to the polls, vote in hand.
Upon being asked her name, she hesita-
ted little, but concluded, upon the
whole to give it. She seemed TO have
similar misgivings about replying to an
equally impertinent question in regard
to her place of residence, but in this
matter also she decided to yield. The
name being checked upon the list, the
voter was told to deposit her ballot,
which, after examining the ballot.bo1
with some curiosity, she did. She stood,
an instant in an attitude of expectancy,
and then asked, Ws that all 2" "Yes,
madam, answered the teller. "Then,
if that is all, she asked with some as
rerity, "why do men make such fuss
about it % The tide Of voters, kept
waiting by her delay, became at this
moment too strong for her, and she was
swept forward with her question I'M
answered. She fingered about, how
ever, and in the first lull came back to
the ballot-box. "If you please" she
said to the teller, "I'd like to see that
vote | put in there "But you cannot
he said. ga vote can t be taken out of
the box" "But want very much to
see il, she persisted. what did you
want of it, madam" he asked, politely.

The surgeon's Train.

The special train, consisting Of an en-
CINE and one car, which brought Drs.
Hamilton and Agnew from Philadel-
phia to Washington on Saturday to at
tend President Garfield, made good time,
and excited not a little comment along
the road. At Magnolia Station q regu-
lar train, bound tor Baltimore, was ran
on siding to let the special pass. 1t
was noised through the train for what
purpose it was on the siding, and num-
Der Of the curious got out to see the
presidents consulting physicians
whirled past The whistle Of the ap-
preaching train was heard, and in a
moment or two it had appeared, passed
with quiver felt all around, and was
out of sight. A gentleman on the plat
form was warned that the suction made
by the rapidly moving engine and car
would be dangerous, and had just time
TO change his position before the train
swept by at lightning speed. N
The run from West Philadelphia to
Bay View was made in l hour and AZ
minutes. The distance between the two
points is "a miles and from Bay View
to Baltimore miles. Allowance being
made for slowing up in crossing bridges
passing Wilmington and other points,
the time made in the run was a mile a
minute. The engine was No. 81 engineer
Stryker, Wm. Loomis conductor in
charge Of the car.

BEER GLASSES AND BRICKS.
A Lively Saturday NiEht-Numer'
Gus Rows Which took Place.

Several rows occurred on Saturday
evening. At Mrs. Fishers saloon, on
Shipley street, between Front AID Sec
ond streets, two or three disturbances
followed each other in quick succession.
At $50 o'clock a lively rumpus was
created by a number Of drunken men.
Pool cues, beer glasses, etc, were. used,
and tor some minutes 1t looked like the
fight would terminate seriously. The
disturbance was finally Quelled by the
arrest of Samuel Townsend He was
taken to the hall, but was released on
bail. At hearing at police court yes
terday morning he was fined 81 and
costs.
A party of colored men and num-
Der of whites engaged in a fight in a

Railroad RUlNOrS,

There are rumOrs aiioat that the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad is about to va
cate the Delaware Western railroad,
but the rumor cannot be traced to any
authentic source, the officials of this
city being in Dlissful ignorance of any
such movement. There is "a report
more likely to he true that the Penn
sylvania and Delaware road from Ian
denberg to Pomeroy is to be vacated as
very little freight goes over that end OF
the line since the Pennsylvania railroad
withdrew their freight for Wilmington
and are now sending it by way OF Co.
lumbia to Perryville and from that
place up the p, W. Il b. to Whining
ton. AS for the Delaware Western
there is enough freight from the clay,
snuff, flour, Bringhurst's rolling mill
and other manufactures to more than
pay expenses even if no freight is re-
ceived from the Pennsylvania railroad.
Another rslmor is that the Pennsyl-
vania and Delaware railroad contem-
plate running regular trains from Del
aware City by way of the Delaware
junction to Philadelphia in opposition
to the river steamboats,.

Manufacturers Tried For POllu-

A trial ofinterest 70 manufacturers
was recently concluded In New Jersey.
1t was the case of the State against
Joseph and Richard K,ngsland for com
hitting a nuisance by conveying a
quantity of carbolic acid into the Passa-
ic river, whereby, the water, which il
used by the public for domestic and
drinking purposes, was rendered disa-
greeable to the taste and smell. 1t was
proved that this nuisance lasted for at
least one week. Judge McCarter, in
Court of Quarter Sessions, sentenced
