The first large haul of shad at Glou-

of last week, when four hundred and fifty
plump. wriggling fish were gathered In
the big seine at Howell & Huut's fishery.
Though the game laws of New Jersey tx
April 10 as the date Of the opening of the
shad fishing season, the weather has been
such as to prevent the big fisheries from
beginning operations until Monday. The
haul was an unusually successful one. II
had been thought that only about two
hundred fish would be caught.

The money troubles of Archbishop
Purcell are fully brought to light in a
lawsuit, in Cincinnati, TO determine the
ownership of the diocesan property held
In his name, but now claimed by his cred
itors. Churches cemeteries, and school
houses are included in the possessions.
The Church defends its ownership on the
ground that the property was paid for by
che different congregations, and held by
the Archbishop as a trustee. The ques-
tions involved are. novel, aud the trial Is
attracting much attention.

TERRIBLE CYCLONE IN MISSOURI. -
A terrible cyclone swept over the town of
Brownsville, Saline county, Mo-, on
Tuesday afternoon Of last week The
entire business portion of the town was
demolished and seven persons were killed
and between twenty and thirty others
badly injured. The storm came from the
southwest, and was very similar to the
one which destroyed the town of Rich
mond four years ago.
The cyclone was preceded by darkness,
and the storm came upon the town with
lightning like rapidity.

CONGRESS GOES TO WORK.

A little over a month ago notice
was served upon the Republican lead
ers that they must go to work and
labor for the interests OF the COM
monwealth with more zeal, earnest
ness and regard for the demands of
the present, or be prepared for q
crushing defeat in 1884. The way
the members Of our National Con.
gress have gone to work, indicates
that they comprehend the warning
and will obey the injunction. A
time honored custom has been for
the Senate to meet at noon, but after
the first routine business had been
gone through with Senator Edmunds
moved to meet at ii o'clock in order,
TO push business with all possible des.
patch. Then, for the first time with.
in the recollection of the oldest Sena.
tor, the calendar of bills was proceed.
ed with just as if the Senate had been
in session for six weeks. If the Re-
publicans carry out the programme
SO ausliciously inaugurated. and do
not rely upon Democratic blunders
for success In 1884. they can elect
their next President without doubt.
And this wise policy seems just now
to be that which the Republicans
will rely upon, which will place them
in position to 60 before the country
with the old-time confidence of the
people to back them up, and win them
another grand victory. The general
sentiment is that there will he no
foolishness about the work of the
present Congress-, whatever may
prove the result Of its Democratic
successor, and for this the country
will be well pleased.

THE Democrats are being hard
pushed on the question Of civil service
reform, and many of the leaders are
seeking hole through which to es
cape the responsibility of nOn-sction
OIL the matter. They do not lack in
profession, but action is feature OF
the pending measure that will be
STAYED off Just as long rs possible,
and when terminal point does ar
rive as it certainly will, the Demo-
cratic host will jump the main ques.
tion with a batch of incongruous
amendments that Satan himaplf
would not think ofinfiicting upon the
public, else all signs will most surely
fail. Mr.. Brown, of Georgia, In his
speech on the subject. very accurate.
ly expresses the Democratic view of
how the matter Of civil service is
looked upon by that body of so-called
reformers. He says: "For more
than twenty years the vast patronage
Of the government has been In the
hands of the Republicans. The
Democrats have scarcely any Of it.
When we have inauguratod Demo.
cratic President and secured lair
share of the Offices to the Democrats,
it will be the proper time to consider
and act upon civil service reform"
1t will be observed that the real re-
form existing among the leaders of
the Democracy. is that Of ousting
Republicans and seating members of
their own political affiliations, thus
showing that the civil service reforms
30 gushingly supported by themis but
a sham and a show. But the Demo-
Gratis are becoming embroidered as
this question proceeds in discussion.
The preliminary votes taken ON the
measure show that as q rule the
Democratic Senators from localities
where Democratic majorities are 30
large they cannot be overcome by the
ficating vote are openly opposed to
the passage of any civil service mea
sure at all. 1t appears from the vote
on taking up the bill. that out OF
forty.five votes for 1t, five only were |
Democrats, while sixteen Democrats
voted against IL. IT 10 just possible |
that the looked.f0r blunder Of the
democrats may have its origin In
ignoring the demands Of the people
for reform.
