The Young Woman Who Il Engag,ny Con-
arai Interest In Wilkesborfe.
A mysterious case came before Mayor
Broderick, of W,lkesbarre, yesterday. F.
D. Burrell, man who has been running
a shooting gallery there for ,shoIt time.
made application to obtain possession of .
pretty girl Of sixteen, who had been at
work at a small hotel there for about a
month. He swore that she was his daugh.
ter that she was born in Rochester, N.
Y, in 1865, and when she was year old
he removed to Binghsmton with his
wife and baby. When the latter was
two years old his wife, ON one Saturday
night, had him arrested on false charge,
and he was taken to Jail and kept there
until Monday morning. UpOu his release
he discovered that his wife had fled with
another man, taking his child along. He
made attempts to ascertain whittier sho
had gone, but to no purpose. He then re.
solved upon devOting his life to q search
for his daughter. In order to further his
object he connected himself with circus
companies aud travelling shows, and for
fourteen years he has anxiOusly been
scanning the features of children every
where in order to get a trace of his lost
one. He came to Wilkesbarro with a cir
Gus last April and went as far a Bingham
ton with it, when he returned.
About three weeks ago he went to break
fast at the hotel where the young girl was
at work, and after looking at her he says
he recognized her. He hurried off to
BinghamtOn and obtained the assistance
of a man named Carlisle, who came back
with him and went to board at the hotel
for the purpose of interviewing the girl.
He succeeded in having talks with her
and swOre that she told him that her
name was Burrell. She said she remembered
being in city with river and boats in it.
As an offset to Burrelps claims woman
named Smith, from Pittston, widow, says
the child is her own. and in evidence
she produced Bible with family record
of the birth of one Emma Smith, in May,
1861. But the girl herself, when placed
on the stand, said that before she ever
knew Mrs. Smith she was living with a
family named Helm, in Scranton that
both Mr.. and Mrs. Helm died when she
was five years old and that Mrs. Smith
then took her that the Helms had told
her that her name was Burrell.
The girl is known in this locality as
Emma Smith. She resembles Burrell, and
says that if he can prove that she is his
daughter she will go with him. The
mayor heard the case, and as he has no
jurisdiction it will 60 to another court
There is considerable disposition to sus.
pect that Burrell is playing deep game 70,
somebody else. The girls birth is envel
oped in mystery, but it is suspected BY
many that Burrell is not her father. The
affair is creating good deal of talk and
will DO thoroughly sifted.

The New York Republican legisla-
tors are making even worse exhibition
of themselves in their effort to choose
their senators than the Pennsylvanians
did. There was no corruption in our
struggle at least. The indications are
that Bradley's story that he was offered
$1,000 to vote for Depew, is true; :;
though opinions differ very much on our
matter, and it is not easy to say
where the perjury is. The current of
belief is, however, that Vanderbilt's
money las been put up to elect the attor'
ney of his corporation.

THE case of the Chinaman and the
white woman who married each other in
Colorado and were indicted therefor in
! Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory, was de.
cided yesterday by Chief Justice Sever, OF
the territorial court. He held that the
marriage, being legal in Colorado, was
also legal in Wyoming, under the statute
and ordered the defendants to be dis
charged. A curious result of the marriage
is the social ostracism of the husband, Lee
Chin, by his own countrymen, who say he
has disgraced himself by marrying a white
| woman.
The chief signal officer is meditating a
change of the term for what has hereto
fore been known as "fair" day. This
was meant to signify day when the sky
was overcast with light clouds, but when
neither rain nor snow fell. The phrase
! generally misleads most persons to think
fair day must necessarily be one when
| the sun shines, whereas the kind Of
weather meant thereby at the signal Office
is absence of sunshine as we'll as Of falling
weather. The aim is to save expense in
telegraphing by describing weather as
briefly as possible, SO single word can be
used. To replace ''fair" overcast and
neutral have been suggested.
