addition of column to each page, which
is an indication that the excellence of the
Herald is appreciated.
SCHUYLER CoLFAx has been heard from
again. A tender reference to him in a
Western New York paper calls out from
him letter in which he solemnly says :
" AS to the Credit Mobiler stock to which
you allude, can only repeat that 1 never
had share of it, nor dollar of its divi-
dends, having voluntarily abandoned four
years before the public scandal an incom-
piete contract to take some of it,"

THE Philadelphia newspapers keep up
their delightful and luminous diversity of
opinion about the trade dollar. The North
american, which sets up for an authority
on finance, declares that the furry over
the trade dollar is passing away, and it
will presently be circulating from hand to
hand as freely as ever. The Times, which
sets up for an authority on everything, in
sists to day that "the trade dollar is
Hurried out of general circulation. It is
refused by our railways, steam and pass

lateral for loans; by insurance, trusts and
safe deposit companies by the wholesale
trade by marketmen, and generally in

EX.ATTORNEY GENERAL PALMER
and ex-senator Buckalew are reported
as giving the opinion that Luzerne is
entitled to two senators. We suppose
that this is on the ground that the popu,
lation has increased to the necessary ex-
tent since the United States census of
1880 was taken. 1t is true that the con.
stitution does not seem to require the
state apportionment to be based on the
United States census, but simply to fix
the time when it shall be made, "imme
diately after each United States decen-
NAL census The Legislature can order
state census to be taken for use in lis
appOrtiOnmeut.

The LIGHT briefly chronicled on Saturday
that Carl LANCE, the revolutionary crank, had
escaped. Details are now to hand which
show Carl LANCE, his custodian, Mr.. J. G.
Fisk, and his brother, DR.. Conrad LANCE, left
San Antonio on Wednesday for New York,
and all went well until the party reached
Argyle, on the Missouri Pacific. Carl LANCE
was remarkably quiet and gave no trouble,
As the train was leaving that station Carl
jumped from the window of his sleeping birth.
Fisk was watching him from his birth, oppo-
site, but too late to prevent the escape in the
dark. The train was stopped and search
made, but the lunatic was not found. Since
his escape Carl has telegraphed his escape to
DR.. Brantley that he has won his case, and
had Fisk arrested for burglary and his brother
for lunacy. He also makes some very uncom-
plimentary comments On the Judge and jury
who tried the case.

Charley Hill illuminated his saloon on Vii
lite street in honor OF the Volksfest by sus-
pending Chinese lanterns above the roof. On
Saturday night he had a narrow escape OF
having a great illumination that he did not
bargain for by the accidental firing ofthe roof.
Fortunately at the time Of the accident there
was large crowd in his saloon, and they set
to work with will, succeeding in exlinRuish-
ing the fire before any material damage was
done. The loss by fire and water will be
covered BY insurance.

The LIGHT respectfully calls the attention
Of the street authorities to an obstacle and a
nuisance of long standing in the shape of a
collection OF second hand furniture, barrels
and other articles too numerous to mention,
placed on the sidewalk and stretching out into
the plaza by certain auctioneer at the corner
of Military plaza and Doloroso street. Not
only are these things and the fixture under
which they stand a nuisance but they are an
unbecoming and by no means pretty sight,
more suitable to back slums than TO a fine
open plaza. Hacks and all wheeled vehicles
are unable to turn the corner sharply, and
should car be coming they have to wait
until it passes. Street Commissioner Russi
will no doubt look after this.

dered one Williams about two years ago. and
J. NJ. Campbell and his son, Duncan Camp

on Friday in order to hear the habeas corpus
petition, which the prisoners have made to

An amusing contest was witnessed on
Saturday afternoon on the Military plaza by
those few spectators who were not attending
the Volksfest. Mr.. Landa had mule and a
man from the country also had one. After
disputing as to the respective pulling
merits Of the two annals it was agreed to test
them. They were then made to pull one
against the other, and the struggle finally
ended in favor OF Mr.. Landa's mule. We
believe $a5 a side was placed on the issue.
