WARRINGTON NOTES.

Washington, May S.-The examina-
ton of Blair was resumed to-day as
heretofore. He didn't consider that
there was much Importance attached to
the question as to how much scrip was
offered him by Shipbered, but as the
committee might deem it so, he would
say twice 1000 shares Of par value of
hundred dollar shares. Shipherd had
asked the use of his (Blair's) name as
one Of incorporates company, but he
declined.
The democratic congressional con-
vention of the seventh district Of Indi-
ana has nominated VIM. E. English, son
of Hon. VIM. H. English, of Indian
apolis.
1t is reported on the best authority
that the a containing the four persons
was seen Saturday night driving out
Knockmanor gate, Phoenix park, in the
direction of Lucan, and that the horse
was covered-with foam and dust.
The supreme court Of the United
States denied the petition for a writ of
habeas corpus in the Mason case. The
court martial have full jurisdiction to
try him. The proceedings were within
its jurisdiction and the sentence not in
excess of its power.

Andy Borie: Ar elephant never goes
off on his ear. He departs On his lit

). G. Pratt: Why should coal deal
ers make good lawyers? Because they
know all about coke and little ton.
May Goldschmidt: The first thing
an Anglicised American swell learns to
do is to adjust an eyeglass. The second
is to yawn.
o. Miller: A Chinese baby at Sacra-
mento has been named Arthur, In re-
cognition, of course, of the veto of the
Chinese bill.
Fred SchwartZe: 1t costs this
try about SO, 900 to bury a congressman
and, considering the benefit derived the
price is moderate.
Hugh Masterson: That is a bon ton
family indeed who calls the servant who
washes and takes care of the dishes
''our minister to China"
Judge Bean: Times are good, and
a great many nice young men would
marry if they could find girls who were
able to support them comfortably.
Charley Riner: The trouble with
Kelley seems to be that the secret of
his motor is locked up in his brain,
and he has forgotten the combination
Pete HANNA: This is May; this is
springtime in Wyoming, and you want
to lay in another ton Of coal, and put
up three base burners in all the best
rooms.
NJ. E. Post: Seventy-eight hundred
bills have been introduced into congress
during the present session, and yet some
people assert that a congressman does
not earn his pay.

Pittsburg, May S.-The most de-
this city since the memorable riots, of
1877 occurred yesterday. The court
house, or the principal portion of it, is
a mass Of ruins. The fire created in
tense excitement and on account Of the
Jail being attached to the burned build

oners would g cape. A close guard
was kept over tn 3 inmates who were not
aware that the Fl Ee was in progress so
near them, A soon IS the fire was
discovered a number Of officials and
others forced their way into the burn
ing building and succeeded in saving
nearly all the records and law library.
While endeavoring to save the records
in the jury commissioners office, Harry
McDermott, a grandson of Jury Com
missioner Hogan, was killed by falling
glass. The building destroyed was of
stone, and originally cost about $780,
600. Many thousands have since been
expended on improvements. Insurance
on the burned portion is $50 1000.

Universal Sorrow and Adherence Fol-
low the Fiendish Act.

Dublin, May 8.-McG uire, one of the
men who discovered the remains, says
Only nine or ten minutes relapsed be-
tween the meeting of Cayendish and
Burke, alive and we'll and finding their
corpses. 1t is believed that Burke was
aware his movements were logged. He
had frequently been advised to have an
escort, but always refused. Early this
morning, in order to allay excitement,
orders were sent from Dublin castle to
clear away the blood at the scene of the
murder, and the police to guard the
spot with drawn swords.
The following appears in the Free
mans Journal this morning: "The
detectives have a register Of all drivers
here and are examining the drivers in
dividually in order to ascertain their
whereabouts Saturday.
Three men of the Corner Boy"
class were arrested on suspicion at the
village of ChaPelized day, unable to
give an account of themselves, they
stated hat last night they slept in the
field, one adding afterward that he
slept in a lodging house in the church
lane. The latest information is that a
park range saw a car with red panels
on which four rough looking men were
seated, pass out of the Cheap side. He
adds that he has a good idea of the ap-
pearance of the driver of the horses as
well as of the men.
Two men were arrested at Killiney,
who are said to be E%nglishmen from
London. 1t is reported that when ar
rested they had in their possession
steamer tickets for America, which
were purchased in London, showing
that they had been bought or furnished
to them in London. Within a few days
no official statement of exact facts can
be had from the authorities, who are
maintaining the utmost reserve con-
corning arrests.
Orders have been issued that all
boats from Ireland be searched for the
assassins.
The face of Lord Frederick Caven-
dish, as he lies dead in the hospital, is
calm and peaceful. Burke's counte-
nance has a look of agony.
Capt. Ross and late secretary, NJ.
Forster, have gone with special report
and as representative of Earl Spencer,
to London.
John Boyle O'Reilly and Patrick A.
Collins have telegraphed to Parnell
authorizing a reward of $4,000 on be-
half of the Irishmen of Boston for the
apprehension of the murderers of Cav
endish and Burke.

a woman's ''help" lights out in the
middle of the season she wishes the old
gentleman in black would send them
on a little faster.
M. A. Arnold: There is a limit to
Yankee ingenuity. A Connecticut man
having vainly labored for five years to
make canned corn stick to corn cobs,
so that it could be sold in the spring as
fresh, has committed suicide.
Deputy Sheriff Hosford: When 1

asked me what part of ''The Burial Of

Will Gannett: They now make bed

Xenophon, who tells of a silly fellow
that wiuked in the glass in order to OF
serve how he looked when he SUM-
bered.
Herman Kimme: Everything is tend
ing to dispirit the cold water apostles.
A frog eating Frenchman has discov-
cred alcohol in water. Wouldn't it be
too bad if the so-called temperance
folks would have to go back on water
as a beverage.
Major Elderkin: An eminent scien-
fist says that when a lady cannot sit
down without her nos becoming red
it shows that there is imperfect circu-
lation of the blood, caused by tight lac
ing. Same with gentlemen. A red
nose is a sure sign Of tightness m
where.
W. G provinces; 1t is said that the
Winnepeg hotels are SO crowded that a
nan had his arm broken trying to en-.
ter the dining room. Probably a can
ard set on foot by the landlords to cloak
the fact that the mans arm was broken
in his desperate attempts upon the no.
tel steak.
j. W. Hammond: The population Of
this country has increased 1900, 000
since the war, but the man who wants
some n to help him to owe n cook
stove cannot be made to believe any
such yarn as that. Cook stoves should
never be moved, but if they must be
moved, always let somebody else do it.
Marshal Schnitger: 1 am gratifed to
learn that Rear Admiral Nichols will
act as secretary of the navy during the
absence of the secretary. 1t would
never do to let our weak and puny navy
go a day or two without a protector.
What would become of our country if
our navy was to get lost, and the secre-
tary fifty miles away 1t is hoped Mr..
Nichols will not over exert himself and
burst a blood vessel while he is acting
as secretary of the navy.

II has been estimated by Bradstreets that
there are 1900, 900 miles Of fence in the
United States, the cost Of which has been
more than two billion dollars, or about $50
a mile. Formerly the fences Of farms weie
built of wood, and the annual repairs put
heavy tax upon the farmers. The last CEN
rus shows thst the cost OF each repairs In
1877 was S7S,6l90o0. Most farm fences
are nov built Of wire, and $4,000 miles Of
such fence were built in 1881, At . COS, Of
l0,O00, 900, or about half the cost per
mile of the old wood fences. The duty ON
the steel rods on; of which the wire fencing
is made Is so per cent. and legislation has
been proposed which would greatly Increase
the cnst 10 farmers Of wire fence.
Such action would be unwise and unjust.
The new settlers upon the distant prairies
are struggling hard TO enclose their land,
and the additional tax would bear heavily
upon them. The invention OF wire fence has
made i; feasible to enclose vast tracts oil
land for pasturage which have heretofore
been w.ste. II the price Of wire fence re-
mains low, all the unfenced land OF the
country will in . few years be enclosed
adding greatly to the national wealth.
Nothing should be done to reiard the pro
grers Of the work Of properly fencing the
country.
