TIE TWO FAIRS.

The weather last week WAS most delight
fully favorable for The two fairs Of Sedgwic,
county. No other single county in the
United States probably. could hold two sue
cessful fairs at the same town in the same
week. Sedgwick did that thing. At least
the officers Of both claim much larger at
tendance and interest than MAS anticipated.
all of which but proves the excellence of
the county and the temper OF the people.
There is no denying the fact that the crowd
al both places was larger than any outsider
counted upon. The possibilities OF single
county fair. or better, of district fair. ut
this poin, could hardly he estimated. An
annual agricultural, horticultural and stock
exhibition. could be held at this point that
would eclipse everything in the state save
the State Fair at Topeka. But we lind il
useless 10 criticise the course of the two as
sociations here. Both appeared To do their
level best. and as both are satisfied any crit
icism would probably be felt 10 be gratui-
tous. While the entire exhibits OF both
would have made bu, slim show il con
solidaled, srill there was nothing bui the
best exhibited. The old fair had some
splendid herd, aud pens. aud the new asso--
citation had as fine fruit and vegetables as
were ever exhibited in this state The ap-
Piles. pears. peeehes and small fruits. aud
the potatoes aud corn exhibited al the new
fair were simply superb. The grapes butter

were unsurpassed.

Throwing stones,

On Saturday q oolored woman named
Adeline Davis came to the police sta
tion and swOre out warrant for the
arrest of boy named Alfred Watson,
whom she charged with having struck
her in the eye with stone Her eye
was swollen shut, and it was evident
that she bad received severe blow.
The boy who is but seven years old was
present with his mother in the evening
and Squive O'Neill heard the case. The
parties live in Elizabeth street, and
Mrs. Davis testified that she was sit
ting at q friends door, when Alfred
chased girl in an alley and threw the
stone which struck her In the eye. She
said that she had been to DIR. Mckay,
who after an examination said that in
his opinion her sight was permanently
injured. Shortly after she was struck
she complained to the boys mother,
and asked her to correct him, which
she refused to do. Several persons tes.
titled that the boys in that neighbor.
hood are constantly throwing stones,
and corroborated her testimony in re.
spect to his hitting her. The squire
said that there was too much throwing
done by boys on the street, and If this
boy was older he would fine him the
full extent Of the law. Although he
was 30 young, he had probably depriv-
ed this woman of her sight, and he
should be punished for IL. He then
imposed a fine Of 80 cents and costs.

Assaulr and battery.

Saturday evening just as the last case
had been disposed of, a colored man
named Thomas Williams, came into
Police Station with the blood streaming
down his face from wound in the
head. He said that he was a host, er at
the Delaware House, and the injuries
had been inflicted by Edward ,denen a
bar tender at that place. An officer
was sent over who arrested the offender
and brought him in for a hearing. The
colored man said that he was sitting in
the kitchen, talking and laughing
with one of the girls, when Menen
came in and after a few words had
passed between them committed the as.
sault. The accused made a statement,
and said that Williams had a number
of tickets and some money which he
had taken in during the day for horse
feed, and when he asked him to hand
them over to him he had answered in
an impertinent manner, and he then
struck him. The Squire told him that
was no excuse for his beating a man
In this manner, and he would have to
learn to curb his temper. He imposed a
fine of S.. and costC.

Would Not Accommodate Him.

Saturday evening an elderly man
nalAed Samuel johnson, with disabled
arm, was charged with disorderly con-
duct. The evidence showed that he had
been going from house to house begging,
and where persons did not give him
as much money as he thought they
should, he would throw it in the street,
and make use of improper language.
Upon being questioned by the acting
Mayor, he said he was from West Ches-
ter, and had come to this city in search
of employment as private watchman.
Squire O'Neill told him that when per.
sons needed private watchman, they
did not as a general thing employ stran'
gers, and ne thought the best thing he
could do with him would be to send
him to New Castle Jail for ten days as
a vagrant. The prisoner asked in an
ironical manner if he couldn't make it
sixty days, when the Squire replied
that 1t would be too long time for the
tax payers to support him.

of all three wore crushed with hatch

gled in a most brutal manner. An in

She Married the Other Fellow.

SusquehAnna county has recently
had romance in real life. Miss Eu-
phrasia White, daughter Of ex.Sheriff
VIM. White, of Auburn has been IA
vored, for quite length of time, with
the whole-hearted attentions Of q man
by the name of Davis.
Such attentions were not entirely to
her liking, but on account of the
wishes of her step. mother, they were
allowed from time to time until finally
day was set for the wedding of Mr..
Davis and Miss White, and that day
was Tuesday last.
The happily expectant bridegroom
arrived from his western home the pre-
vious day. But about this time, says the
Scranton Times, Miss White seemed
to take matters little more In her own
hands, and there being certain other
young man in the case who seemed to
be much nearer her ideal, wedding
took place on the Saturday previous
the Tuesday aforesaid, and q wedding
at which the western lover was very
oonSpioious-but altogether owing to

rsy for the Latter CnrrIers,

Judge Freeman, Assistant Attorney
General for the Post Office Department,
in constituting the recent act of Congress
fixing the salaries of letter carriers,
holds, first, that the salary of letter
carriers in first class cities should be
fixed at 1000 per annum for the first
class. 800 per annum for the second, and
600 for the third or auxiliary class; sec
ond, that in cities of the second class, the
highest salary paid to principal carriers
should be $3.50 per annum, and to the
auxiliary carriers, 600; third, that on
the establishment of the service in SEC
ond class cities the principal carriers
are entitled to receive $3.50 per year,
which is neither the highest nor the
lowest salary allowed at first class cit
les; fourth, that in cities where more
than one class of carriers are employed,
to such positions must be
made the lowest grade or class. The
Assistant Attorney General also holds
that each carrier is entitled, after one
year efficient service, to promotion to
the next higher grade.

In and 1t was q wonder that some one
was not thrown from the train. The
brakeman, however, pulled the bell
rope and the train was stopped which
had the desired effect of quieting the
disturbance. Some fifteen minutes was
lost in this way, and after the Atlantic
City express had passed the excursion

out further trouble. During the melee
considerable blood was split and the
man who weighed 40 pounds and could
slick any man on the car" had the

few miles further on another stop was
made in order that the Cape May Ex-

ing at Camden at 6 45 where the FELTON,
was in waiting to convey the passengers
to Wilmington at which place they ar.

yond these few disturbances, raised by

The knights of Labor were in session

counselled tenants of the companies to

necessary funds would be furnished.
The session was harmonious, and, as
result, it is stated that the New Cen

will withdraw from the proposed ten.

miners occupying the Georges Creek

meet on Monday evening. The miners
have forwarded the companies an Off.

. hN Giant Match MonopoIx.

The Philadelphia Press of Saturday
says editorially:
With the adjournment Of Congress-,
the match monopolists breathe easier
and have Immediately put up the price
Of matches. Knowing that with the re-
peal of the tax their power to monopo-
lie the match business will be at an
end, and fearing that the tax must 20
by next winter, they have resolved to
make the most Of the brief rehpite that
is left them.
Yesterday every wholesale grocer in
Philadelphia received a notification
that the price of matches had been ad-
vanced all the way from twenty-five
cents 10 one dollar and a half on each
gross, according to kind. Retail deal
ers will of course advance their wares
proportionately.
This is the second advance made by
this monopoly. After the consolidation
of all the manufacturers into one cOm.
pany, the price was Immediately ad.
vanced from Sl.8O per gross of boxes
100 matches each to $21O
per gross.
The Government allows credit and
discount to the buyers of stamps by the
wholesale, and it is on this account
that the monopoly favors the tax, rs it
gives it a great advantage over small
manufacturers who are unable to CON-
pete at all,
The failure of the Senate to pass the
Internal Tax bill, owing 10 the persistent
opposition Of the Democratic Senators,
will take something out of the pocket
book of every match consumer in the
land to swell the dividends fthis giant
match monopoly.
