of our people who failed to hear Mr.
Eaton on the subject of Hebrew
Monotheism, at the NJ. E. Church
Tuesday evening. missed one of the
grandest treats ever presented in this
city. He gave his version and explain
alton of the many difficult points of
the old testament in most vivid.
forcible and interesting manner. 1t
was full Of instruction and truth. He
held his audience in perfect attention
throughout, speaking nearly two
hours. His singing was also fine and
listened to with marked attention. Mr.
Eaton should be solicited at some
future time to repeat this lecture, as it
should be heard by every citizen.

THE HILEs CAsE.-After about
four days trial of this case in the
United States District Court at La
Crosse and the examination of large
number of witnesses, the case came to
an end for the present, with disagree
ment Of the jury, 9 being in favor of
conviction and three against. The
charges of fraud were made against
only three of the five originals, Mr..
Geo Hiies, James Hiles, his son, and
w. r. Jarvis. In the evidence it
was shown that Mr.. Jarvis was absent
from the polls most of the day and
deserved an acquittal while the evil
dence against MIR. Hiles and son was
more positive. 1t is to be regretted
the case was not settled then and there
and the rights of the parties definitely
established. The case will probably
be tried again at Madison as it is one
of grave Importance to every citizen.

The awarding OF the first premium
for best display of plants and flowers,
to Mrs. Geo. Zenier has created some
dissatisfaction amorg other exhibitors
owing to the manner in which it was
done, Mrs Zenier and w J.. Scott
each having fine display. 1t is
claimed that two of the judges were
absent, Mrs. j. w. Cameron and Mrs
Samuel Hiles, and that no substitutes
were appointed to fill their places,
leaving but one judge and the superin-
tendent to pass judgment, which has
proven quite unsatisfactory. No
complaint, however, is made because
Mrs. Zenier received first premium,
but because of the manner in which
it was awarded It is hoped these
little differences will be avoided 10 the
future.

A Fair Count.

Treasurer Wyman and Assistant Treasurer
Graves formally entered upon the discharge
of their new duties yesterday. Tho former
received several beautiful floral tributes from
the female clerks in his office.
The examination of the cash in the treasury
is progressing satisfactorily. There are sixty
persons, including female counters, engaged
in this work under the supervision of tho
general committee. The different divisions
OF the office are in charge of subcommittee
detailed from other branches of the Treasury
department. The count so far has shown a
deficitsof five cents in bag of silver, and an
excess of six cents in the accounts of the in
terest teller 1t is supposed this discrepancy
will be explained as tho count progresses
The cash is being counted twice-the first
time by the committee and again by the rep
rcsentatives of the treasurer. 1t will require
two or three weeks time to complete the ex-
animation,

THE AsHUBLOT.


The OmcinI Report Of Her Loss-A Court
OF Inquiry Organized 10 Investigate the
Matter.
Rear Admiral Clitz, commanding the
Asiatic station, reports to the Navy depart
ment under date of Hong Kong Feb. 90,
giving facts concerning the loss of the United
States steamship Ashuelot gathered from the
report of Comd'r II. II. Mullan, the comman-
der of the lost vessel. The Ashuelot left
Annoy at y. m. on tho seventeenth of Feb
ruary with fine weather. AT 6 p. m she left
Chapel island. At 8 p. m. the weather be-
came foggy, and the engines were slowed.
At a. m. IL had been the intention TO change
the course, and the navigation, Lieut.. A. b.
Wyckoff, had come on deck for that purpose.
He was in the chart room consulting
with the commanding officer when
land was reported ON the starboard bow The
helm was put hard starboard and tho en-
gines stopped, but too late to clear an out
lying rock and the ship struck at few min
utes after abreast Of tho fore rigging as far
MS could be judged under the bottom. Sound
ings showed Ia fathoms. The ship struck
one of tho East Lamocks. The boats were
cleared away, both anchors let go, and at
tempts made to save the ship, but it was
found that she was filling rapidly, and that
the bilge pumps were of no use, SO she was
abandoned. She sank in twelve minutes
from the time the order to abandon ship was
given. 1t was impossible to beach her, as
the nearest point available was five miles dis
tant. With the exception of few unimport-
ant articles, both officers and men lost all
their personal effects A court Of inquiry to
investigate the circumstances of the loss was
ordered on board the Richmond, and was in
session at tho time that Admiral Clitz's report
was written. The wreck now lies in an up
right position in about seventeen fathoms of
water, with nothing showing but her top
masts. Work cannot well be commenced b5-
fore April or May, after the change of mon
soon. Lieut.. ID. II. Mahan and five men from
the Richmond were detailed to remain in the
vicinity of the wreck and protect IL from pill
lage. Paymaster Whitehouse, of the Ashue-
lot, was ordered to take special charge of the
investigations connected with the final dis
position Of the wreck, and upon his report Ad-
miral Clitz would be enabled to determine
what course to pursue.

The Milwaukee Horror.

The large six story Newhall hotel,
of Milwaukee. was burned down on
the morning of the 10th inst. The
fire was discovered about 4 o'clock
A. NJ, hut had made such Roadway
and spread so rapidly that but little
could be done in alarming the sleep
ing inmates. In less than half an
hour the immense building was all
ablaze. The house was crowded with
guests and employees and the scene
which followed the first alarm heggars
description. Many jumped from the
upper windows only to be dashed in
pieces on the stone pavement below,
others rushed to the stairways, only
to find their retreat barricaded by a
solid sheet of flame. There were
many heroic deeds performed bv the
firemen and others. and many a hair
breadth escape. The loss of life is
appalling. Sixty.eight dead bodies
have been already recovered and it
is estimated that there are from 90
10 80 more in the ruins.
