caught in bush and threw his watch into

A BRIGADE of the Salvation Army is low
ering rents in the city of Easton, Pa. By a
seeming paradox number Of arrests have
been made OF young men who disturbed"
tine meetings. A certain Minnie Yongston,
a lieutenant in the brigade, has been arrested
also. 1t appears that she was converted" in
Brooklyn, where she was known as tough
one. Her physical constitution was such
that she was unable to either beat the TOM
tom or sound the hewgag without the stimu-
lating effects of beer, when she made Rome
howl in a way that even the Salyationists
stood around and enYied her. In addition to
the regular attractions of the Easton meet
ings, it is related that the crowd in attend
ance at q recent evening found amusement
in watching prize-fght between colored
and a white boy No arrests were made.

REPRESENTATIVE HEFFREN, the Jumbo of
the House, rose to personal explanation
with respect to the article OF General Reuben
Williams, which was republished in the
Journal of yesterday. In a flippant and
bantering tone Mr.. HeGren denounced the
article as in many respects false; but the
principal point he relied upon for his vindi
cation was that the Supreme Court of the
United States had decided that the military
commission had no legal authority to try the
alleged conspirators. One of the false
hoods" Mr.. Heffren indicates to be, that he
never was a Knight of the Golden Circle but
cided that the military commission had no
legal authority to try the treason cases, but
we have yet to learn that that fact turned a
traitorinto loyal man, or lessened the crime
with which the conspirators were charged.
At the time Mr.. Heffren took the stand
to peach" upon his associates we presume
to hear his story as evidence, and he I'M
doubtedly told the truth as witness. Did he
or did he not perjure himself, in his own es-
timatiou, by giving false evidence-evidence
upon which the lives of his friends and asso-
ciates were declared forfeited? If Mr.. Heff-
rem told the truth-and we believe he did
then treason against the State and Federal
government was rampant in Indiana-treason
which involved murder, and Mr. Heffren had,
by his own confession, knowledge Of it. At
tho. conclusion of his "explanation'' Mr.

Heffren asked: Surprising it is all true,
what are General Williams the Indianapolis
Journal and the Republican party going to
do about it?" This is the question, in style

THE USE OF THE HoRsEwH1P.

The horsewhip as weapon is slowly COM
ing into favor. 1t has always had its advo-
Gates, but as these were mainly among the
female sex, who can only WELD one in left
handed, Intellectual way, the merits of the
whip as means of punishment or defense
used however, in the hands OF muscular
man, its advantages are many.
1t possesses all the desirable properties of
the unloaded pistol with none of its dangers,
and will eventually take the place of that
deadly instrument. Many men richly de-
serve personal chastisement whom it seems
and for this reason they usually escape
punishment In this class the genus
"masher' ranks first. Nobody wants to
shoot him, and everybody knows he ought
to be thrashed within an inch of his life. 1t
has remained for the chief of the st. Louis
fire department to set a fashion in this
adopted with good results, The chief
is a large man, and he carried good
stout whip. He watched the proceedings of
a masher and his Objectionable attentions to
respectable ladies until he thought it time
for them to stop He piled his whip vigor-
ously upon the person of that young man,
nor ceased at his cries for mercy until he was
in such a condition that he could not appear
in public for several days. That the chiefs
conduct on the occasion was appreciated by
the citizens, and its beneficial effects at once
seen, is evinced by The action of the Mer-
chants Exchange. That body did itself
honor by presenting the chief with a gold
mounted whip with an inscription showing
that it was for services rendered to respecta-
BILE women of st. Louis. The recipient &C.
knowedged the gift in speech in which he
promised to wear it out if necessary in whip
ping "mashers"
A Chicago father has also found the whip
useful in dressing down" a youth who had
made arrangements to elope with his sixteen
year-old daughter, he having already enticed
away one or two other girls in that part of
town. The fascinating youth will not be
able to e!ope this week. AS an eliminator

BLOOMINGTON, Jan. IS.

A STRANGE, hairy little creature named Krao,
is on exhibition at the London Aquarium, as
the missing link between man and the lower
order of animals. Krao is described as very
bright-looking, intelligent girl OF about seven
years of age She caught, according to the
occouut given of her, in the forest near Laos,
and brought to England by Mr.. Carl Book,
O Norwegian, who, since the expedition de-
scribed by him in "The Head Hunters of BOrneo,"
has been exploring Siam and the wilder states
to the northeast. Hearing, in various quarters,
of the existence of a race of hairy, tailed men,
similar in appearance to family kept at the
Court of Mandalay, he offered a reward for the
capture of4i specimen. man was caught, and
with HIM the child now exhibited, and a woman
of similar appearance then allowed herself to be
taken. When the little one attempted to wander
the parents called her back with plaintive cry,
"Kra-o," and the call has been adopted as her
name The eyes of the child are large, dark
and lustrous; the nose Is hattened,
the nostrils scarcely showing; the cheeks are
fat and pouoh-like, the lower lip only rather
thicker than is usual In Europeans, but the
chief popularity is the strong and abundant
hair. On the head 1t is black, thick and straight
