1t is said that Murphy's claim to the
money will be contested by friends of

hope Of finding more money.
The vote in New York last week re-
suited in the election of the demo-
cratic state ticket excepting the secre-
taIy. The state assembly stands sew
enty-three republicans and fifty.fve
democrats, and the senate nineteen re.
publlcans and thirteen democrats, the
majorities on the state ticket were
about 10000 for the democrats except
ing in the case of the secretary of
state republican who had 10000 ma
jorlty.
Whitney, the slayer of Otero in the
Estancla grant troubles did not put in
an appearance at the Los Lunas court
last week, and Judge Bell gave his at
tOrneys a chance TO show cause why
his bond of $4,000 should not be de-
clared forfeited. 1t is claimed that
Whitney is in California under medi-
cal treatment for the wounds received
in the battle and which are very likely
to prove fatal. Be this explanation the
truth or not it is quite likely that he
will never willingly appear for trial for
this offense.
An old man whose experience should
be of value advises young people to
marry without regard to financial con-
dition. He says: Before got my
wife / never had a dollar ahead and
my credit wasn't good for ten dollars.
My wife was thrifty and the union
gave people that confidence in me that
to-day l can proudly announce my liza
bilities to reach $50. 900 with no assets
whatever. Marry, boys, and marry
early"
There is no abatement of the Chinese
emigration to the United States since
the law was passed restricting the ad-
mission of laborers of this nationality,
but in the capatity of artists, actors,
merchants, ETC., they continue to pour
IN. Aud not only do the Chinese pile
in upon the Pacific coast in numbers,
but their first cousins the japanese, are
coming too, and when Congress amends
the restriction law as it will have to do
or repeal it entirely, the japanese will
come in for their share of attention.
Contrary to all expectations the chol-
} era has broken out afresh III Alexan-
dria, with its old virulence, and, many
Europeans have fallen victims to 1t.
This unexpected circumstance is ex-
l citing reasonable fears that the disease
, will spread into Europe in the early
: spring and during the summer will
. spread all over the world. Since the
pestilence first showed itself medical
men have predicted that its dread i'm
q age would make the round of the globe
! and this reappearance seems to justify
, their belief.
Y During the season just passed 10000
! Americans crossed the Atlantic in pur-
suit of business or pleasure. No sooner
| does the American become possessed
: of few spare dollars than he has de-

!, world lives aud he starts travelling. 1t
, will not be many years ere Europe will

| Americans than for anything else.
r The managers of lottery swindles are
I receiving no mercy at the hands of
Postmaster General Gresham. The
: statute forbids the sending through the

D nected with swindles. and inasmuch as
Q lottery schemes have been branded by
