julius Newman, . mere boy, who
vas arrested on complaint Of his
mother, who could do nothing with
him, proved . little too sharp for the
chief Of police. The boy, 1t seems,
has q passion for running away from
home and has been roaming about In
Nebraska and has been In jail ii
Omaha, besides getting iuto much
other trouble. His mother appren'
tioed him to . cabinet maker, and
while the boy seemed quick to
learn and willing to work, yet
no would not stay content, and
run away again. Then tn,
mother concluded the only way was to
send him 10 the reform school, and &C
had him arrested. While waiting II
the oalabooAe for q hearing he I'm
proved the opportunity Of noontime,
and the absence Of the officers, to max,
his escape. Over the door leading
from the front room into the calaboos,

protected by iron hars. There seemet
no space large enough for Of cApe, bu
the boy someway squeezed himsel
through this transom between the bars
and thus got into the front room. Tn.
front door being locked, he could no
even then get out In tho street, ans
while trying to raise q window. Tn,
ohlef Of police returned from dinnei
and found the boy there. He, tn,
chief, did not know the boy by sight
and on asking him what he was dom,
there, received from the boys lips
long and touching story of how Mar
shat Jackson had sent him up Their,
to see about some boys who had ssolel
his backing brushes, the little FELLOW
pretending to be q boot, black. Tn,
boy cried so aud played his part q,

and make them give up the same, an,

Brown q Young were surprised o,
Saturday morning to find that the
slaughter house, on the creek belof
Orvis' packing house, was burned I,

burned 10 one seems to know, but j
probably went in the night sometim,
as there was slaughtsring being don
there the day before. There hs'
been no fire about the place, so l
naturally seems to have been oausec
by lncendiArism. The building ant

That Closet Rcatsessment Decision.
Our Democratic friends in West Sr-
pinia are in trouble; wherefore We observe
some very fine squirming to get out. Tho
Grecnbrier Independent, one oil he ablest
OF tho Democratic newspapers Of the State,
recently made an explanation, seemingly
by authority, OF the manner III which the
personal property reassessment came
about. II was then that the three Jr lges
Of the Supreme Court Of Appeols were
uncovered In caucus assembled with the
State administration and certain Demo-
cratic politicians, and it seemed to be the
opinion Of the party that the Independent
had explained too much.
Now we have from the Independent an
explanation explaining the original expla.
nation. Behold this: "Ifthere is tho least
Improperly, after case has been decided
aud the decision made public, in judge
stating what the decision was, we fail to see
it. Tie truth is that our friends Republi-
camel IRE driven to great straits to fad
something amenable to just criticism in
the course OF the present State administra-
ton" We have not understood 1t 10 be
the practice Of judges to go about explain
ing their decisions. A decision should be
30 plain that everybody will understand it,
and filling tits there is a regular way to
have it interpreted.
But the point OF importance is that he
Supreme Court OF Appeals never has de.
cided the case now in controversy. That
court decided the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad case. The State administration
and certain Democratic politicians, three
Supreme Court judges among them, made
this pretext for deciding case which
they made up themselves, and the
case and the decisions were to put
taxes on personal property hitherto
exempt, and it was all done to help the
Democratic party out OF financial straits.
The point on which was based this reas.
sessment by executive order never has
been decided, but II the original explana.
ton by the Independent be by the card,
taxpayers know how 1t would be decided,
for majority OF the court has privately
declared itself.
II the State administration "acted wisely,
promptly and patriotically," why is 1t that
the party managers now repudiate the
State administration and, to make sure OF
their ground, take pains year before the
convention to set up ticket on which not
a single member Of the present administra-
ton gets place?-eyery one Of them dis

triotism deserve better Of the party.

Corn nua " heat IN 1883.

The Department Of Agriculture's Septem-
Der report on the condition Of crops verb
fes Tor the most part the reports by teie-
graph and adds much valuable information
from home aAd foreign correspondents
Wet weather and late planting, followed
by drought, cool summer and early and
sharp irosts have told on the corn crop.
The Department looks for four-fiths Of q
full crop, an average Of 23.2 bushels per
acre, or an aggregate Of 1000 million bush
e's about the same as last year. This yield
will be q little below the average, which for
ten years has been 20 bushels to the acre.
The yield for the bad crop year Of 1881 was
1876 bushels to the acre. .raos.sa
Having in mind Geographic adyicea from
the great corn States later than those which
enter into the Departments estimate we do
not look for better showing. The cool
nights have continued, and the recent frost
damage in large areas, particularly in the
West and Northwest, seems to have exceeded
that at first reported. In the East great
deal OF very backward corn will be cut for
fodder.
Last year there was full crop Of wheat,
yielding 10 s bushels per acre. This years
crop will, It is thought, be about So million
bushels less, say 4lS million bushels, a
yield OF eleven bushels to the acre. The
yield for the memorable crop year Of 1881
was but 3S3 million bushels, or l0.2 bush
els to the acre.
in the matter OF cereals our country has
Jared much better than foreign lands,
Great Britain's wheat acreage is decreas-
ing quantity-in nine years 1t has fallen
2S per cent and the end is not yet. This
year she will have to buy largely-in the
opinion OF the Agricultural Departments
statistical agent more than ever before,
1870 excepted Other authorities think
the imports will necessarily be larger than
in any previous year, without exception.
1t ia thought that Great Britain will have
to buy 100 million bushels Of foreign wheat.
Roumania, a large exporter to Great
Britain, and the Black Sea wheat district
Of Russia, have not had satisfactory mar.

can not get elsewhere, and the prospect is
that she will have to buy largely, to the
benefit OF our farmers. H 80

A MONSTER MONOPOLY.
How the Abolition Of the Tax on
Matches Will Make Several
Miilionaires.

CLEVELAND, o., April 10. = Gentle.
men connected with the Diamond
match company, ono of the greatest
monopolies in the country, impaired
startling information to your corre-
spondent to.day. When the tariff bill
was before congress MIR Swift, the
president, and Mr.. o. @. Barber, Vice
president of the Diamond match com.
pany, appeared before the committees
and worked the Hobbies to have the tax
o n matches retained. At the time, it
war thought this action was to better
the condition of the Diamond match
company, who had driven all the
email manufacturers out of busi.
ness by combining all the
large match factories In this
country and Canada. Now 1t appears
that the action was taken with hopes
that the opposition would cause the
match tax to be abolished instead of
continued. The Diamond Match com.
pany operate immense factories at
Akron, O., Wilmington, Del, Chi.
cago and other points In United States
and Canada. At the Akron factory
alone the company turned out In the
month of March, $1,000 gross of
matches, a gross being LA boxes,
which retail at eight cents each. This
Is the greatest amount vel turned out
by this factory in the same period.
The profits heretofore at the Akron
factory have been about $780, 600 per
year. When the stamp tax Is abol-
ished the company will put In pocket
as a clear profit 81 a. on each gross,
which heretofore went for stamps,
This will make an extra profit of
$50, 600 per month, or the enormous
sum of 81, 0CO. 900 extra profit in one
year. This Is for the Akron factory
only, the other factories having the
same or nearly the same capacity.
According to those figures tho men
who form the Diamond Match com
pany will all be m%illionairss at the
end of the next twelve months. They
do not anticipate that tho retail price
of matches will be reduced for a year,
at least, and do not care II the blgges.
kind of q reduction comes after that
time, as all Immediately concerned In
the company will have become indie.
pendently rich, and will be ready tc
retire feom business. The Diamond
Match company has proved itself ont
of the greatest monopolies of the age.
For years they delighted in paying
the stamp tax, and secured stamps to
immense amounts from the govern
ment at o discount, and drove out all
the small manufacturers on the Amer
lean continent. The company is com
posed of Swift Of Wilmington, Del.
