A number Of young msn, not oouspic
uous for their supsRior intelH9snos. me,
in . pEivass apartment Of . ho0oe on
6padfna avs0ne last evening. Tins
hung hsavily On thar hands, and the
snaRsskioo Of ooe thxt thsy relieve the
oppressive ennm By lauahine foe the
drinks vas hailed with enthus,asm.
The contest commsnced, and one Of
thsm continued to laugh for half au
hour, whsn his facs had changed from
red to darker hue. Then his friends
became alarmed, and begged him to de-
sist. This, howsvsr, he coold not do
and his only response was . continuance
Of the hoarse spasmodic noiss. He
laughed a. IL doing il by contract
His forehead became hvid, and the veins
ssoed out distinct like yhipcords. The
arteries in his neck became distsnded
almost to bursting; symptoms Of apo
plsxy became apparent. and it became
evident that remedial measures must be
adopted, or be would die laughing.
One Of the party ran to . drug store
and procured q drau2ht, which was ad-
minisered to the irreprsssible cachina-
tor. The effect was salutary, and to-
day F. does not feel much the worse for
his voluntary and dangerous display of
laughing.

THE TUNNEL DISASTER.
Investigation by the Railroad Companies
Engineer Arrested.

NORTH ADAMS. Oct a.
The investigation of the railroad accident
in Hoosac Tunnel by the railroad commits
sioners was continued today, and Manager
Locke was sworn to testify as to rules. He
was cross examined severely by Troy and
Boston attorneys. Emerson +. Watson, en-
gineer of the locomotive which ran into the
caboOse Saturday last, causing several deaths,
was arraigned here today on a charge of hon.
iciie, in causing the death of James Bosely,
one of the victims. He pleaded not guilty
and went to Jail without bail.
In continuation of the investigation of the
recent casualties, by the railroad commits
sioners, this forenoon. A. NJ. Locke, Mana
ger of the Troy ( Geeenfield railroad was
sworn first. In reply to the question as to
the rule governing the Troy & Boston engine
the morning it run into the States engine
Deerfield, or its caboose. and killed six men
or more, he said, that the roads general rules
and yard masters orders governed il. The
course in such cases would be for engineer
Watson to come around bv the west bound
track. or flag himself when he came on the
east bound track. The manager said further
that the engineers must protect themselves
while in the yard regardless of the States
rules as no rules as no can be trusted to gov
ern the running of the engines id the ward
when there are seven or eight in il at a time
Such rules are printed in no other yard to
the managers knowledge. The yard master
must have control of the yard. In the case
of the accident Saturday morning the Deer
field and its car were proceeding on their
rights and had no right TO expect that there
was another engine on that track. The com
missioners adjourned till next Saturday

state Sunday School Convention.

The annual State Sunday School Conven.
ton met in Hallowell yesterday afternoon.
The convention was called to order by Rev.
r. l.. Howard. A short praise meeting was
held, followed by prayer by Rev. c. Allen.
The chairman appointed committee on
welcome was made by Rev. E. Martin, in
which he welcomed the convention to the
city and to the work which he regards of
vast Importance.
response was made by Rev. r. l..
Howard, president of the contention,
in which he expressed gratitude in be-
half of the convention that they were count
ed worthy of being thus welcomed. Yet the
attendance did not make the honor very great,
as it was less than it ought to be. He re-
sponded for the children in and out of the
Sunday schools, saying they are the hope of
the church and nation.
The report of the State secretary indicated
a hopeful view of the work. Twelve
hundred schools have reported. and sO,-
600 or 10000 scholars and teachers are
reported in the schools. He urged more
vigorous efforts.
Rev. B. F. Snow reported the work in
Aroostook county.
In the evening praise meeting was held
led by the Hallowell Choral Union. After
the praise meeting followed an address by
James G. Lane of New Hampshire, and
sermon by w. ii. Clark, State secretary.
This was followed by discussion.

THE CON EFT.
DIR. Il. A. Gould Claims to Have First
Discovered Ii.

BosroN, Oct "a.
Late sdvices received at the Harvard Col
lege Observatory from DR.. b. A. Gould at
Cardoba, South America, show that the honor
of discovery of the great comet belongs to
him. 1t was first seen at his observatory
more than day previous to its discovery by
Fiulay at Cape Good Hope. and FIVE days be-
fore i: was seen by DIR. Cruls at Rio. Late
letters from the Cape to prominent. English
astronomers show that the comet wss OBJ
served there upon the day of the Perihelion
passage clear up to the edge of the sun when
it suddenly disappeared. This observation
has no parallel in the history Of astronomy
and evidence of the extraordinary brilliancy

servatory has just completed new orbit

heretofore obtained. and gives unmistakable
evidence Of the perihelion. BY means of
this q comparison of the observations of
Finlay, with the position which the present
orbit gives from that date, has been made
and the variation between the observed and
computed place is less than the diameter of
the nucleus of the comet. From this Close
argument it is evident that no sensible per
turbations attended very close approach to
the sun.

ascertained that after all the indebtedness
was settled the amount due the government
from the Central Pacific r. X. Co. was over
$4,000. Application was made to the com
pany on the Goth inst. for the payment Of
the amount, and on the 23d inst. it was paid
into the U. S. treasury.
Request WAS received at the treasury
department from assistant U. S. treasurer at
Baltimore for 81, 100000 in gold certificates.

At the instance of the department of JUS
tice warrants have been issued for the arrest

Shaw's arrest has not been reported.
The Curtis Case.
The political assessment case of Newton
NJ. c. Curtis for petition for habeas corpus
was called in the United States supreme
court this afternoon. Elk Assistant Attorney
General Smith of the counsel for the petit
toner, opened tor the defense. Gen. Curtis.
he said, is now undergoing imprisonment
under an indictment charging him with hav
ing received money for political purposes
from other employees of the government.
Smith asserted that the court below had no
Jurisdiction of the case. for the reason that
Gen. Curtis was not an executive officer
within the meaning of the statute, and the
court below had no right to try him. 1t is
an insult to the understanding to say that
vi, ing a few dollars more or less in support
of political or religious ideas in which ore
believes, or in permitting the use of a hall
for their propagation has any tendency to
corrupt the public service or impair the eff
cheney of public servant.
Solicitor General Phillips then began his
argument in behalf of the United States. He
said no nice enumeration of powers conferred
by the constitution is required here, for i,
seems beyond controversy that the federal
legislature can make provisions to secure to
the United States the full and undistracted
attention of all who occupy office under them
to the same general extent that this can be
done BY any government. Such provisions
are plainly necessary and proper for the
execution of federal powers expressly grant
ed by the constitution. 1t will not be denied
that one who receives money for political
purposes thereby becomes trustee in behalf
of some public purpose. This the legislature
can forbid. After speaking about half an
hour Mr.. Phillips closed his argument and
the court adjourned.
