AN item is going around through
the newspapers that the postmater
at Kasota recently invested in u
Louisiana State lottery ticket, and as
a reward for his venture drew Il prize
of $4,000. 1t is also said that he is
in peaceable possession of the amount.
Surely this is apiece of excellent
luck, and while it is proud fortune
for the Kasota p. Nj. the lottery will
make Il bonanza out of the transac-
ton in the way of free advertising

at is also proposed to buy the land in

THE prosecution of the State in the
Malley case has practically closed,
and the defense now comes forward
and will try to prove an alibi. From
one side of the case-that against the
Malleys-it seems morally certain
that conviction of most heniOus
crime must follow. 1t has been
proved that arsenic had been admin.
istered to Jennie Cramer; that she
had been raped short time before
her death; that the Malleys had been
with her all of Friday and Friday
night, the night of her death; that
the Malleys were extremely anxious
to find Blanche Douglass after the
body of Jennie was found, before any
one else should see her; and the denial
of the Malleys of all knowledge of
Jennie Cramer after Thursday, was
proved to be false by the evidence.
If it is proved that these boys are
really the murderers of the unfortu.
nate girl, there is no punishment
known to law that is too severe to be
visited upon them.

THERE is every probability that
the present congress will abolish the
postage upon newspapers and maya
zines. Postmaster General Howe, in
his letter to congress recommending
the repeal of the present law resulat.
ing postage upon such publications..
says: 1T may well be doubted if the
whole people get rs much information
of public affairs from volumes gra-
tuitously thrown at them 10y the gov.
ernment as they do from newspapers
and magazines which they purchase
and pay for" The postmaster re-
cites other considerations which lead
him to the conclusion that congress
may at the present time soberly
abrogate all discrimination between
subscribers to newspapers and maya
zines and send the same through the
mails without charge, whether such
subscribers reside within the county
of publication or outside of it.

A sculling match between Courtney and
Lee, fixed to take place yesterday after.
doom at Richfield Springs, New York, had
to be postponed on account of the rough.
ness of the water, which threatened to
swamp the boats. 1t will take place,
weather and circumstances permitting, at
half past three o'clock this afternoon.
Courtney has received several tele
graphic inquiries regarding his intentions
challenging Ross after the race with Lee
has been decided. In reply, Courtney has
said that if be is successful in the contest
now ON hand he will probably challenge
Ross for a race this season, and is pretty
confident that he can beat him whatever
distance is agreed upon.
Wallace Ross publishes card stating
that as he has received no reply to his
challenge to Edward Hanlan, wherein
Ross offered to row Hanlan for 81, 900 a
side and the championship of the world,
lie claims the championship. He refers to
his inability during the last two years to
get on race with HanlaD, but offers to
accommodate him this year or next.
Finally Ross offers 20 defend the title OF
Champion against all corners, and de-
clares he will make match with any one
for from 1000 to $1,000 side, Hanlan
preferred.

The DAILY INTELLIGENCER to-da,
enters on the nineteenth year of its ex
istence. Started toward the end of the
rebellion for the comfort and protection
of the small but vigorous contingent OF
the Democratic army, it used its artil-
lery effectively for that purpose under
the quartette of artillerists in the firm OF
Cooper, Sanderson & Co.; of whom
soon after peaceful times returned
only Henry G. Smith-lately gone to his
rest in Tennessee, and whose memory
shall be ever green with us-remained to
conduct the journal in association with
the present senior editor, who has been
at the bellows for fifteen years, aided in
the latter half of the period by the able
and active Democrat to whom is now
confided the headship of the Democratic
state organization. We need say
nothing for the INTELLIGENCEH, which
all these years has spoken for itself, and
by its words is known.

The secretary Of War Thinks Mason Guilty.
The decision of General Swain in the
Mason case is hardly likely to reach the
president for his concurrence or disap-
proval. 1t is understood that the secre-
tary of war will in day or two render a
decision overruling that of General Swain,
who holds, as he did previously, that
Mason being off duty at the time he fired
the shot at Guiteau, was out of the prov
ince of the military authorities and could
not be tried by court martial. The secre-
tary holds, on the other hand, that Mason,
being soldier of the United States army,
was at all times under orders and subject
to military supervision. On this ground
he will hold that General Swaim's decision
is at fault.
