A Gray-Headed Lfbertlne Cooped.

Sheriff s. A. Langan, of Fillmore county,
pass ID through the city yesterday en- route
for Saltwater with two prisoners. One of
these was John s. Ellis, sentenced last
Saturday at Preston by Judge Farmer to
imprisonment for life for the rape Of his
ten year old stepdaughter, a crime
which it was proved he had been
repeating for six months or
more before his arrest. He formerly lived
in Martin county, and marrying the child's
mother after the latter had been seduced,
moved to cabin near Chatfeld, where he
was known as climber rat" getting his
living by cutting hoop poles, and drawing
pension of $24 a month as a soldier in
the late war. Here his wife died, and he
had lived for several years alone with the
child. What makes the crime still more
revolving is that he is a gray headed man
of over sixty years of age, and though the
heinous offense was thoroughly proven, he
whimpers and cries and asserts his inRo-
cence.
The other prisoner was Jim Riley, under
sentence of one year for breaking into a
schoolhouse at Wykoff, and stealing there
from set of old coins with which, in illus
tratiop, the teacher was instructing her
pupils.

Next Seasons Paving improvements.


The committee on streets came to tie
vote on the question of paving Third
street from Sibley to Cedar 1.-THE hill pars)
with granite, and the balance of tbs street
to Pleasant avenue with cedar blocks. Two
we're in favor of the mixed paving and two
for gaanits the whole length. 1t is claimed
that cedar blocks make the footing of
horses insecure on the heavy rise in the
street and that nothing but granite or pine
blocks will remedy this. The committee
were in receipt of a storm of protests from
heavy property owners on the street in OPP
position to the granite paving, while
Bishop Grace and others were in favor of
it and of having this paving substantial.
Cedar block paving was voted with
granite curbing for the paving of large
number of streets next season for which
blocks will be got out this winter.
The Fourth street improvement in this
particular goes to the council for Cedar
paving, but on account of the horse cars
on that street it will probably be changed
by that body to granite,

CURRENT COHMENT.

IT is estimated that the celebration of Evacu-
alton Day IN New York city cost upwards of a
million of dollars. Thousands of people were
wet in the rain, and hundreds contracted severe
colds, and it is estimated that $4,000 pairs of
trowsers, 10000 overcoats, and an equal number
OF silk hats were irreparably damaged, despite
the 100000 gallons of whisky which the statisti-
clans Of the press declare were consumed in the
metropolis during the day. And after all, it is
believed there were more Englishmen in New
York on Monday than there were on the memoir
able occasion one hundred years previous.
