En- las anteriores cartas hemos dicho
que una de las mayores procupaciones
del principe Bisbark es la de dar d la
Alemania la paz religiosa perturbada
en- los primeros amos del imperio con
las famosas leyes de Mayo y otras dis
posiciones acordadas contra ell clero ca
t6lico en- Alemania. Ahora diremos
que Ell parlamento prusiano Landtag)
ha aprobado Ell proyecto de ley politico-
eclesiastico por una mayoria de 223
contra 1O7 votos. Verdad es que la
ley procede de la iniciativa del princi-
pc Bismark y no de las negociaciones
diplomaticas entabladas con Ia corte
pontiical; pero aun en- Ell Vaticano no
han sido bien recibida la noticia de la
aprobacidn del proyecto dc ley precnr-
sor de otras reformas de mayor tras-

Las camaras inglesas estan dando
pocas pruebas de actividad parlamenta-
ria. Esto Sc comprende porque la ma
yoria liberal va descompouiendose,
La question de Egipto ha separado de
la mayoria d los radicales opuestos al
sistema de conquistas de Lord Bea-
consfeld. Los moderados estan in
quietos por las concesiones hechas d los
parnellistas con la esperanza (frustra-
da) de llegar a la paz social en- Irlanda.
Faltan La unidad y la firmeza en- la di-
reccion de la politica interior y ex-
tranjera; pero como las camaras sus-
penderan pronto sus sesiones, no habra
por ahora decomposition total de la
mayoria parIamentaria, nj hay anuncios
de crisis ministerial.
Los armadores ingleses han vuelto d
reunirse para tratar de hacer un nuevo
canal en- ell istmo de Suez con capitales
britanieos, para que la nueva via mari
TINA quede al exclusive servicio de la
marina inglesa. No pensamos que tai
proyecto Sc realize, al menos por ahora,
sean cuales fueren los deseos de los ar
madores ingleses.

DIGGING A GRAVE IN THE FARk.
A Picturesque Burial Under the Will
TreeaI tho Edge of tho Lake,

A Picturesque Burial Onder the Willow
TreeaI tho Edge of the Lake,
Bordering the upper lake in Central
park, New York, about pistol shot from
the no street entrance, stands weeping
willow tree. Its branches sweep low over
the water. At 10 o'clock Thursday MORN
ing decently dressed man, carrying a
bundle under his arm and shovel over
his shoulder, stopped beneath the tree and
gently placed the bundle on the ground.
With the shovel he dug square hole at
tho foot of the tree. In it he laid the
bundle and then threw back the earth he
had removed. He Strengthened himself,
wiped the moisture from his forehead and
was about to go when heavy hand was
placed on his shoulder, and a voice said
"Phat are yees doin ?"
The sun flashed on the buttons of park
policeman.

The policeman marched him to tho
Yorkville police court and arraiged him
before Justice Herman. He said he was
A. Blaurock, of 115 Chestnut street. He
told the justice in German that his pet dog
had died, and that he had thought tho
pleasantest place for the interment was
under the willow tree on the edge of tho
lake. The dog had been in his family for
ten years.
Justice Herman said that the law would
not permit the use of Central park for
such purposes and fined Blaurock S..

DOING HIS DUTY,
A Conductor who had Not Got Instr uctlop
demanding Tickets or the Money.

A Conductor Who had Not Got Inst uctIODs
Demanding Tickets or the Money.
A stern and gray bearded conductor
went into the presidential Car just as the
train was passing Ream's station, N. G.
Secretary Chandler was pointing out
to the president the earth
works and other interesting points
of that fiercely contested battle
field. "Tickets," said tho conductor. AS
the president had been invited to take the
trip over the road as it's guest, tho con.
ductor's demand was rather embarrassing,
"Have you passes ?" asked the conductor,
They had no passes. "Have you tickets ?''
They had no tickets. "Then you will
have to pay fare from Weldon to Peters,
burg"
This conversation was carried on with
Private Secretary Phillips, but the presi-
dent heard it, and he looked on with an
amused smile ; but when the conductor
said that he should have to charge them
$47, that is, for the full capacity of the
private car, which is built for eighteen
persons, there was some disposition to
argue the point with the conductor, but
he stood firm. He must either have
the money, tickets or passes, but
he left the car for a while for Mr..
Phillips to decide. The embarrassment to
MIR. Phillips lay in the fact that, having
accepted tho courtesies of tho road for the
presidents :party, he felt that he might

MURDERED FUK MONEY.
A Country (srOceryman and His Two Cf
dren Killed by u Fiddler.

Country Groceryman and His Two Chill
dren Killed by u Fiddler.
Barney Doyle and his two little girls,
aged five and seven years respectively,
were found murdered in Doyle's grocery,
at West Union, Doddridge county, w.
Va, at midnight. The murders were
committed with hatchet, which was
found near by. Doyle was cut all to
pieces. More than score of gashes mark
his person, several of them on his head.
Near by Doyle lay the bodies of the chill
dren, who had been in bed and had been
awakened by au attack on their father.
only to be killed by the murderer for the
purpose Of concealing his identity. One
of the children was dead when found, but
the elder of the two exhibited signs of
animation and by dint of great care she
was restored to consciousness long enough
to tell that the murderer was James
Harper, worthless fellow who lives near
the scene of the tragedy.
Harper does various work for a liveli
hood and at night fddles for country
dances. The motive for the murder could
readily be determined, for in the room in
which it was committed an old fashioned
hair covered trunk, with it's lid shivered to
kindling wood, was found in a corner, it's
late contents scattered about the room.
Silver coins were found everywhere, which
the robber dropped in his flight.
Doyle was a widOwer and kept his
grocery as a blind for doing an illicit
liquor business. This he carried on for
years, and it is thought that he had accu.
nulated large sum of money, which he
bOasted he would not trust to the banks,
but would keep under his own eye. The
robber must certainly have obtained
several thousand dollars, if the lowest esti-
mate of the contents of the chest is at all
accurate. 1t is thought that Harper had
assistance in his crime, and a man named
Mckinley has been arrested rs an acces-
sorry. Another man named Weekly is al so
suspected of completely, and he is now
under bail for threatening to kill Doyle
for seducing his wife.
A Dwelling Burned at ShamOkin.
Between and o'clock Thursday morn
ing in Shamokin fire broke out in the
double dwelling occupied by ex Mine
Inspector Hemingway and John Slaymetz.
The flames spread 50 rapidly that before
assistance could be had the entire building
was burned to the ground. Both families,
however, saved their furniture. The origin
of the fire is unknown. The loss is 81 500
insurance, $1,000.
"A Woman Assaulted by Two Boys
Near Shenandoah brutal attack was
made upon Mrs. Mary Groady by two boys
aged fifteen years each and named Thomas
Ellis and Richard Rodgers. In the assault
Mrs. Groady's arm and collar bone were
broken and she was so badly injured rs to
be unable to appear at the hearing. The
young ruffians were held under bail to
await the result of her injuries. The mo-
tive is unknown.
