"Wistar parties," in honor of their
founder. DIR. John Syns Dorsey, DIR.

"A NEW BRICK YARD.
which - CompIet. I'm Every Particul

Which - Complete In Every Particular.
One of the most complete brick yards
in the state is the one which has been made
by Jacob Griel and managed by his sons
jacob and John. 1t is situated Oh Lemon
street, between Pine and NeviD, and
covers Q acres of ground, which is en-
closed in "a high pale fence. The kins-
two in number-are situated in the south
ern part of the grounds. They arc of the
latest designs and have a capacity of 15O,-
900 each. The walls arc three feet thick
and fifteen feet high and roof IS yet twelve
feet above that, with ventilatOr, &c. The
flues are of improved style five feet in
height, and the iron grating is an inch in
width. There are three sheds for drying
purposes each being 100 feet long. They
are supplied with trap doors on either side
which in case of storm can be let down in
a few minutes. The beds are sodded
along the sides and look pretty. The
sand for the yard is kept in two sheds en-
closed in either end of tho yard for that
purpose. In the shed for tompering the
clay there are two large hoppers which
were made by Richard Blickenderfsr. On
the east side Of the ground there is a
large stable and shed, capable Of holding
a largo number of horses, wagons, carts,
&c. The Office is neat little building on
the northeastern corner of the plat, and
there arc new frame water closets near the
stable. All the buildings are whitewashed
and present bright appearance. Twenty
five men are given employment at the
yard, and the number is divided into
three gangs. The most of the brick burned
at the kilns for some time, will be used by
Messrs. Griel, who will erect large num-
Der of houses during the summer. The
bricks are all made by hand, no mac hines
being used, and the clay is dug from a
field of Mr.. Griel's on the north side of
Lemon street and just opposite the brick
yard.

ANYTHING more ridiculous than the
attempt of the Massachusetts Legisla-
ture to impeach the validity of one of
Buffers vetoes it would be difficult to
imagine. 1t was written by him and
signed while he was in the state, and
was afterwards sent by messenger under
his directions, but because it happened
the state the legislative solons in the op.
position to him sought to invalidate it.
OF course the supreme court has de-
clared against them, but their position
was SO puerile and trifling that it is easy
to understand how a man of Buffers
calibre can profit so largely from the
character of the opposition to him.

The reportof the Democratic House
committee on the failure of the Repub-
lican Senate to agree to an apportion-
ment fixes the responsibility for that
failure just where it belongs. There is
no great difference in the political
strength of the two parties in the state.
At most the Republicans have slender
plurality, and on a fair vote, relieved
from the advantage to the party in
power of having the patronage, the
Democrats number as many as the Re-
publicans in Pennsylvania. When,
therefore, the Democrats offered to give
the Republicans IL out of 2s congress-
men, and % out of 50 senators, they Of
fered more than they were in fairness
bound to concede and when this was
rejected the Democrats were justified
in refusing TO give more or take less.

THE governor has called an extra ses-
sion of the Legislature as he was ex
pected to do, and has summoned it to
meet Immediately which we also think
was the right thing to do. The weather
is hot and legislation will be uncom-
Portable 4; but for that reason it is likely
to be hastened. The members who failed
in five months to do what their duty re.
quired them to do, were entitled to no
consideration for their comfort in de-
Gliding the time at which they should be
called in extra session. The legislation
they omitted needed to be promptly
done, and the best time to have it done
was the earliest.

EVENING. JUNE 8. 1883.
ur. HendrIcks' Interview.

The New York World gets from Mr..
Hendricks, in reply to telegram, ask
ing what he said to Turpen, a reply
which does not deny that he was correctly
reported by that gentleman, who he says
was friend to whom he talked freely,
without suspicion that the conversation
was to be reported, and without intent
to thereby forward his own political in
terests. It was just a free and easy
conversation, you see, without any par
ticular purpose. In such conversation
Mr.. Hendricks may be supposed to have
expressed his honest sentiments. But
here comes Congressman Cobb, who de-
clares to an interviewer that he cannot
believe the conversation with Turpen to
have been genuine because it does not
sound like Hendricks" and Its senti-
ments are purely the reverse of those
that he has often expressed to me. lie
is quoted as saying that the country
thinks extremely we'll Of Mr.. Tilden
that it has recorded its very high opin.
ion of him as man of honor and integ-
rity; that he personally holds him in the
highest regard and all that sort of thing
Well, that is so different from the terms
in which l have heard him speak Of him
that I cannot bring myself to believe
that he ever uttered such sentiments
His views relative to Mr.. Tilden, as he
has often expressed them to me, are any
thing but those expressed in the inter.
view"
Then Mr.. WattersOn comes along and
declares that Mr.. Hendricks never had
confidential relations with Mr.. Tilden ;
and some one starts story that they
have never been friends since they met
at Saratoga in their early candidature,
and Mrs Hendricks expressed her Opin.
ion that Tilden's cash had got him to
the head of the ticket, when her hus'
bands brains should have got it for him.
It's no news to the public that there has
been no love lost between the candidat
on the old ticket, SO that Congressman
Cobb's surprise at Mr.. Hendricks warm
expressions of admiration of Mr.. Tilden,
expressd to his friend Turpen, is not to
be wondered at. And yet it is undeni
niably Mr.. Hendricks privilege to change
his mind. He has had close interview
with eternity through a pestiferous toe,
and might be expected with this expe.
rience to be disposed to cultivate amica
BILE relations with all men, and to be
ready 10 forgive his worst enemy. Te
be sure, 1t was going little further thar
the situation called for to reform the ole
devil Tilden, as he appeared before the
educating toe experience AS al augur
after the toes teaching, Mr.. Hen
bricks might have been little more re
served in his laudation of Mr.. Tilden to
Mr.. Turpen, but we need not find great
fault with him for his benlgnity. If W.
all had his inducement to exerciss
charity to all mankind maybe we would
all forgive Mr.. Tilden for permitting III
to he uDdOne in 1876.

The meeting of the American Medical
association in Cleveland is made nOta BILE
by the conspicuous absence of any del
egates from the New York Medical sOci
ETY.. That organization has disbarred
itself from fellowship in the general as
sociation by adopting a code of "ethics, u
which permits its members to consult
with homGopaths. The New York soci-
ETY. can probably stand this exclusion as
we'll as the American Medical associa
tion. At best the national society must
be regarded as the exponent of special
school or system and not of the whole
science and profession of medicine.

As the work of the Legislature comes
to be better understood and appreciated
the independent and even the more lib
eral Republican sentiment of the state
unhesitatiDgly pronounces the present
General Assembly the cleanest that has
met since the Stalwart Republicans
have controlled neither branch of it..
No measure has passed that the Repub'
lican party can claim credit for, al
though most of the best legislation
effected has been knocking for years at
the doors of Legislatures controlled by
that body. To be sure, some that was
good has failed and its failure We hold
inexcusable, but, as is pointed out, sins
of omission by legislative body are the
least serious, and even little good
mixed with evil from a Pennsylvania
Legislature is much to be thankful for.

FOREIGN NEWS.


An official report from TOnquin in re-
gard to the recent hostilities near Hauo
states that Capt. Riviere was killed while
endeavoring to prevent the capture of a
gun which was subsequently recovered.
The French column retreated in good
order. The wounded were carried back tt
Hanoi. The dead were left behind. The
enemy lost 113 men. The situation at
Hanoi is reassuring. Two companies of
troops started from Haiphong for Hanoi
on the 87th ult. The commander of Fort
Nam Dinh telegraphs that he is able to
repel any attack.
Soldiers Poisoned.
One hundred and forty-three soldiers
stationed at Posen have been accidentally
poisoned. The condition of tho men is
dangerous.

THERE are some very good men on
the House committee to investigate the
relations of the Standard oil company
to the state; but not one of the Senate
committee is satisfactory. Senator Hall,
as the counsel of the Standard company,
and in the very matter, too, which
prompted this inquiry, is disqualified to
act on the committee. Senator Herr's
relations make him an equally undesira
ble member; while Grady could no;

BARNUM'S CIRCUS TENT BURNED.
The Mammoth Canvas Destroyed Almost
Flash-The Animals UDiEjured.

The Mammoth Canvas Destroyed Almost In
Flash-Tho Animals UDiI.jured.
At Chicago, at o'clock Tuesday morn
ing fire broke out in Barnum's circus,
consuming the main tents, dresses and
paraphernalia. The blaze caught from
one of the lamps and the canvas was con-
sumed like flash. There was no loss of
life. The animals, fortunately, were in a
separate tent, inside the baseball park, and
main tent there would probably have been
a considerable number of wild beasts
roaming about the streets.
When the alarm was turned Ill the de-
partment responded quickly, but before
any engines were brought into action the
destruction of tho main tent was complete.
Several streams were played on the blaze
| and the firemen succeeded in preventing a
spread of the fire to the adjoining
| canvas, under which were the cages
of the wild beasts. The flames rar up
the canvas to the centre poles
in a twinkling, and gorgeous scene was
presented on the lake front for a few mo.
ments, Michigan avenue for blocks being
as light as day, while the shipping lying
in the harbor was clearly outlined. The
tugs in the harbor added to the uproar by
| an incessant screaming of their whistles
The canvas and guy ropes being destroyed
the centre poles were precipitated to the
| ground, crushing the private boxes and
| carrying the fire in among the reserved
| seats, causing their complete destruction.
The night watchman in charge of the
| stable tents was appraised in time to enable
tho hOstlers to lead out all Of the horses
quietly. The wild animals bad all been
locked up for the night, and, as they
could not see the flames, wore in no sense
panic stricken, although the smell of
smoke appeared to excite some of them.
The actual loss to property is estimated
at from SIS, 900 to SIG 900 with no insur-
ance, but the interruption to the perform
ances must necessarily increase the loss
very considerably to tho showmen. The
canvas destroyed covered six acres of
ground, and it was claimed to have been
the largest single one in tho world. The
management has duplicate on hand, and
in the event OF the costumes not being
entirely destroyed expect to throw the
show open Immediately.
Entangled In Falling Circus Tens.
During the performance of a circus at
Suspension. N. Y, Tuesday night, the
canvas tents were struck by terrific rain
squall and utterly demolished. About
1900 persons were in the tents, and a
terrible panic ensued. A great many people
were injured, but none fatally.

ALABAmAS ABSENTEE.
Vineenrs Case Growing Worse
as More Light Is Shed
Upon IL.
Special to the oouricr-Journnl.

MONTGOMERY February As
more light is shed on the defaleation
of Treasurer Vincent the worse his
crime appears. His exploits 10 the
eame OF draw poker are wonderful to
relate. He was as unlucky in reach:
ing for the jack pot as he was in bets
ting on cotton. He played often and
heavily, and 500 at a sitting was not
an exceptional loss have it from a
gentleman of unquestioned veracity
that within the last six months be lost
$500 at sitting. The gentleman
plays himself, and is familiar with the
subject Toward the last Vincent
lost his head and got reckless.
Vincent's cotton gambling propen-
sites have been known for a long
time to men high in Office and the
States regard. He endeavored to
persuade at least one member of the
Legislature to join him in cotton
speculation. He would deal BY the
hour on futures, and used the capitol
building telephone to keep posted
through the day on the markets. Con-
viction is growing that in the light Of
Vincents habits, there was
ALMOST CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE
on the part Of the Governor in his
administrations. The law gives the
Governor ample power over the Treas.
urer's office. Governor 0'Neal knew
that Governor Cobb allowed him TO
act two months without bond, but he
is generally excused, Other parties
through whom Vincent dealt are
MOhr, Hannaman & Co, New York
and New Orleans, and Walters & Co.,
New York. 1t is stated that he lost
large sums on deals made through
Warren, Reese & Co., brokers here
and through Lehman, Durr Il Co. 3
cotton and clearinghouse. A conyic.
tiOn is growing that the special Legis.
lative committee is after those with
whom Vincent dealt, and that when
they report there will be music 10 the
air
Rumor says Pinkerton's detective
agency are shadowing Vincent, and
have telegraphed the Governor that
he will be forthcoming on suiIic
reward. The appointment of Hon
Fred II. Smith, Of Dallas county, to
the vacant Treasurership gives great
satisfaction. 1t is probable that a
compromise will be made with Vim
cents bondsmen, giving them time
and possibly reducing the amount.
The tendency is strongly that way.
