4 Queer Character Gone,

John Tnlboy Binns, one Of the most
noted characters that over entered the
Philadelphia almshouse, died in that In
stitution Wednesday, aged 90 years. Bc.
lieving himself to bc woman and affect
ing woman's ways, he was dubbed in tho
institution with tho titlo Of "Sallie'
Bnns. He was admitted February l6,
1853, and was at that time+l years OF age.
When young man he joined an amateur
theatrical club, and the height Of his am
bi;iun vas 90 play female characters. iie
became quite a Inonomaniac on this sub
iect, and his infat,iation Mt last took upon
tseifa mild form of insanity. and for the
greater part his life he was thus afflicted,
At all times and on ali occasions he be-
lievod himself to he n dashing beauty, at
whose feet scores Of ardent suitors knelt,
and upon whom society smiled with
favor. Clad In feminine attire whenaver
ball or COMFORT was givon for the pa
tients, he was the centro Of attraction.
At all times he affected an offeminate
voice in conversation, and acted in every
respect like ono of the female sex. Tho
mir of IL woman never deserted him, and
everybody who visited tho house called
on .'Sallio" and purchased specimens of
his handiwork, considering 1t n rare GU
riosity ns coming from the hand of q man
who considered himself To be u woman.

The Tennessee DeSpcradocS.

ST. Louis, October l3.-A special from
MnrShlicld Missouri, says Il. l.. GoOdnll,
sheriff of Lacle,te County, killed Rob
Taylor this morning while attempting to
arrest him OH board n passenger train II
fcw miles from Lebanon. Taylor is one
OF tho three brothers who murdered the
sheriff and deputy of Hamilton County,
Tennessee, on September lItl last. He
lad been hiding in the vicinity uf ich-
anon for some time past and Sheriff
GOOdall had been after him two weeks.
This morning tho sheriff encountered
Taylor OH Il train between Marshtield and
Lebanon, and stepping up to him presen-
ted his revolver and demanded his sur
render. Taylor instantly drew pistol,
but the sheriff was too quick for him
and fired killing him instantly. The
body WAS taken to Lebanon and the shcr-
i'll has telegruphed to the authorities in
Tennessee. 1t is thought that another of
the Taylor brothers WAS on tho train, "a
the pistol that fell from the dead mans
hand was picked up during the excite
mcnt by man who passed into another
car and was seen no more. 1t is said that
Sl6,0OU reward has been offered for the
arrest of the Taylors. Since the above
was received special has been received
from Chattanooga, Tenn, saying that the
noted desperate named Taylor is sur.
rounded near lockwood, and that u
posse has gone out to assist in his cap
,urc. This is probably the brother of
the man who was killed by Sheriff Good

Speaker Keller on the Ohio Election.

The New York Star Of Octc Der l3 has
the following telegram from Washing
ton:
Speaker KeiIcr arrived from on!o TO-
night in apparent good humur, which he
explains by saying that lie might as well
make the best of bad bargain. He says
that he began to fear just before the cleo
ton that tho State ticket was lost, but had
no idea of 80 bad q defeat. lie thinks it
will bc Il long time before the kepubli-
cans full realize how they camo to DO
showed under. The primary causes un-
doubtcdly we're the liqnor legislation OF
last year and tho Sunday closing efforts
in the cities. The Republicans can now
see that nll this was a mistake. The Dem
ocrats had but little work to do. Tho
Germans formed II powerful phalanX and
laid deep plans. In some places heavy
assessments were levied on NIL saloons
and collected without difficulty. Free
liquor day and night was tho rule on
Monday, with Il bottle to take home for
any who wanted 1t, and this plan was
carried ont generally throughout the
State. Moreover the official count will
show, he thinks. 100000 less votes cast
than in the election Of two years ago, and
he is nt a loss to understand why so many
stayed at home.
Speaker keifer does not expect that
the official returns will show more than
six Republican Congressman elected, but
there may possible he seven, and he pre-
fers to make no guess az to tho political
complexion of the next House. He
thinks tho Ohio losses will bic made UP
elsewhere, but don't know what other
losses may come. National questions
did moi enter into the Ohio campaign
and hence the Republican defeat should
have none hut II good effect on that party
elsewhere. Mr.. keiler remains this week,
and then goes on the stump in New Jer-
scy, Pennsylvania and Indiana.
