WITH GRACIOUS GENEROSITY City Council,
last evening, passed an ordinance providing
that in the future all ordinances that have
to be published shall be printed in tone
daily paper of each political party" Such
move was entirely unexpected and un-
solicited on the part of the Democratic press,
but it will be accepted with due thanks and
becoming modesty.

Our rules OF exchange are
suspended during the holiday
season, from December 10 to
January S, owing to the fact
that the store is so crowded
that we cannot wait ON all the
customers, and it would be a
hardship to be exchanging
goods when we ought to be
selling them.
This does not mean that
goods bought during the holi-
day season may be exchanged
after January 5. They will
not be exchanged at all; but
after the 5th of Januray, we
will resume our old practice o
exchanges as usual. OF course
we shall exchange such al
article as gloves or simlla,
articles where a different siz'
is required.

An UncAlled for Insult.

Mayor Wales has not only brought him
self into public discredit by allowing his
boorish officers to grossly insult witnesses
without attempting to rebuke or restrain
them, but, II his party papers are to be be-
lieved, has acted in the most ungentlemanly
manner towards Esquire O'Nell, In regard
70 the latter's course in releasing prisoner
on bail, at the police station, ON Wednesday
morning.
No sensible man can conceive the slightest
reason for this ebullition Of spiteful temper
ON the part of the Mayor in this case The
prisoner was man of good character, who
had been held to bail on trivial, trumped
up charge, and the bail being ready, Esquire
O'Neill, as he had done dozens Of
times during the past ten years
simply attended to the proper entering
Of the bond, during the absence OF
the Mayor. The action of the latter In
afterwards raising the amount of the re-
quired bail was piece Of childish nonsense
Tor which he ought to feel heartily ashamed
while bis subsequent remarks concerning
Esquire O'Neill's action were as coarse and
brutal as they were unwarranted by the real
facts of the case.
For years Esquire O'Neill has officated
at police court during the absence of the
Mayors, always giving his services gratui-
tourly, and the present Mayor never before
intimated that this kindly assistance was
not desired. He has always acted with ex
treme caution and good Judgment
and his decisions have invariably
proved satisfactory to those for
whom he otficiated. Had Mayor Wales
desired to dispense with his services word
would have been sufficient without waiting
to insult in this gross and public manner a
gentleman from whom he has accepted
numerous favors during the past three
months, and who only continued to attend
the police court under the Republican ad-
ministration at Mayor Wales personal re-
quest.
Altogether, we think that when Mayor
Wales calmly reflects upon his course in
this matter he will come to the conclusion
that he acted in very mean and unbecom-
ing manner.

Democratic citizens of Wilmington on the
Issues Of the campaign. There should be a
large attendance, as every Democrat, from
now until the day Of election, should turn
out on every possible occasion, and thus
keep alive the enthusiasm inspired by our
glorious victory in Wilmington on Tuesday
last, until It swells into such Irresistible
proportions that no power can prevent
another grand triumph in November. John

STABBED IN EIGHT PLACES.
a Tragic Scene In a Theatre Not Down ON
the Bills.
o.

New York Star.l
During the performance at Aberle,s
Theatre on Monday night Albert Arthurs. a
dssipated Bowery variety actor, slipped into
one OF the boxes from the stage entrance
and gavr a note to an usher to be delivered
to Mrs. Arthurs, singer In the theatre,
who had just left the stage. The usher
carried the note to Mrs Arthurs, and not
suspecting anything wrong, she hastened to
the box. Scarcely had she entered when
her husband sprang upon her and stabbed
her eight times with penknife in the face
and body. Although there were several
hundred people In the theatre at the time
no one was aware of what had occu rred
until half an hour afterward, when Mrs.
Arthurs covered with blood made her way
in half conscious condition to the stage,
She was carried to an adjoining house and a
physician was sent for, who at first pro-
nounced her injuries TO be serious but
aiterward, on finding that none of the
thrusts had penetrated vital part, he said
that the patient would recover in few DAYS.
Nellie Arthurs, as the wounded woman is
known on the stage, was married to her
sanguinary husband about year ago. She
had been chorus singer in Niblo's Theatre
anu at the Grand Opera House, and three
months ago made an engagement to visit
Iexas. Her husband objected, and she
found employment at Aberle's at Sl5 a
week. She supported her husband, who ia
extremely Jealous of her, and has treated
her with uniform brutality. How he made
his way to the private box, none of the
theatre attendants can explain; but they
suppose that he sneaked in through the
stage entrance.
Arthurs, after wounding his wife made
his escape from the theatre, and Captrin
Brogan of the Fifteenth Precinct started
out with Detective Crowley in search of him.
Last evening they succeededin in arrestlng him
at No. 25 Spring street. When asked WHY
he had stabbed his wife, Arthurs said that
he did so because he believed her to be un-
true to him.

Mr.. w. G. Van Horne, general manager
Of the Canadian Pacific, states that there are
about 1,300 miles of that road completed,
and there are yet $50 miles TO be laid. The
work is advancing three and one-quarter
mills per day on the main line west, and
from one and one-half to two miles per day
on the branches. There will be 800 miles Of
branch road in operation this fall. To do
the work of construction and operate the
line requires the help Of 10000 men. OF
the force $500 are in the direct employment
of the road, and the others are under con-
tract. The pay Of the laborers working for
the road is 81 per day. Those employed by
the contractors receive 81 .25 per day. This
force will be kept at work until November
l. There has been no sickness among the
men this season and all are well and hearty.
A part Of the laborers will probably &c
South this winter. The company has con
tract with q number of them TO return them
to the boundary line free of cost. On the
change OF his Office from Winnipeg TO Mon
treal Mr.. Van Horne says that he shall still
retain an Office in Winnipeg, but the heaviest
part of the work will be toward the East.
