Trouble tor hArnu0s
CHICAGO, June There was nearly
panic at the afternoon performance OF Bar.
mum circus. The place was completely
packed with over 1900 people. The grand
entry was being made, when one Of the ele-
plants attached TO chariot became
frightened and went believing around the
ring, dashing into the procession and
smashing one or two lighter chariots. To
add to the confusion one OF the lady char.
ioteers abandoned her horses, and they
went dashing around the ring. The wild
beasts, frightened at the uproar, began bel.
lowing and beating the bars Of their cages.
The Restless Animals
became frightened and unmanageable. The
vast audience, composed largely Of women
ard children, were greatly terrified and
rose upon the seats, and those near the exit
made rush and Jam. For few moments
general panic and frighful loss Of life
seemed in evitable, brit the continued play.
ing of the band reassured the frightened
multitude somewhat, and the employees
succeeded in getting the unruly animals
ont and restoring quiet. No one was seri-
ously hurt.

COWHlDING A JUSTICE.
Two Battles and a Prosecution Grow
ing ont Of Scandal.

tng Oul OF ~ Sthnuai.
PH!L,rGIru,A. June 7.-George c. Wyn-
kOOp. prominent citizen of Gloucester,
New Jersey, q journalist and eX.engrossing
clerk of the New jersey Legislature, was
arrested Yesterday for COwhiding Alexan-
der Harvey a Justice OF the Peace of the
same place. WyukOOp vas taken before
Justice Wright, where he gave bail for his
appearance at court Mr. Harvey is
member of the Grand Army and boss in
one Of the departments of the Washington
Mill and when he left his work on Monday
evening was confronted by Mr.. Wynkoop,
who Immediately drew raw-hide from
his coat and slsShed it across Harvey's face,
making fearful cash. This ne
Repeated Several Times,
drawing blood at every stroke. Harvey,in
attempting 10 defend himself, fell over
pile OF water pipe. Both men then clinch-
ed and a rOugh-and.tumble fight ensued,
the beligerents being finally parted by
some friends. During the fracss Mrs. An
ME Reed, a sister of Mr.. Wynkoop, stood
by with revolver and urged her brother
on with the COwhiding.
IL appears from Wynkoop's statement
that reflections anything but compliment
ary had been cast on his sister Amanda in
regard 10 her relations with Harvey, and
which Harvey had not or would not con-
tTaulCt, LnuS lSdNlug LHe lul lpEeSSiOu W re-
main that they were true. Harvey denies
that he ever heard any rumors, so that he
had nothing TO contradict.
shortly After the First Battle
Mr. Harvey met Wynkeop at Burlington
and Hudson streets and then dared him to
horsewhip him again. In few minutes
the tight was renewed. Hundreds OF
people gathered by this time and endeavor-
ed TO part them. Harvey drew q revolver
from his hip pocket and threatened TO
blow Wynkoop's brains out. Wynkoop
dared him TO use his weapon and struck
Harvey several blows in the face with his
fist. Harvey then raised his pistol to fire,
but before he could do so il was seized by
a man named Andrew Storms. Officers
made their appearance and the men then
went to their respective homes. Between
the two encounters Haryey's son Tom, it
is said, armed himself with q revolver and
threatened to shoot Wynkoop. His father
however. took the pistol away from him,
TINS probably preventing tragedy. The
stlsir has caused great sensation in Glou-
CeSter.

A Pioneer Priest Gone.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 24.-Another pioneer
missionary of the Roman Catholic
Church in the West has gone to his last
reward. The priest referred to is the
Rev. John Nj. st. Cyr, who died at the
close of his S0th year Over fifty years
of his life had been devoted to the priest
hood and missionary labor. To this
venerable priest belonged the honor of
being the first resident priest of Chi.
cago. 1t is well authenticated fact
that the great Jesuit priest and explorer
Marquette and his adventurous baud
visited and camped upon the ground
now covered by the city of Chicago, and
Marquette, who was most conscientious
in the discharge of his daily sacredotal
functions, may possibly have celebrated
mass in this vicinity, but the first mass
celebrated for the early Catholics Of Chi
cage was said by Rev. Father St. Cyr
fifty years ago.

which he helped himself to literally.
The next dish offered him, he cautiously
scanned, and told the waiter, Not any,

placed great confidence, especially on
the question of things good to eat. -

European Echoes.

LONDON, February 23.-The Times
says the marked rejection, by Parnell, in
the House of Commons, yesterday, of
the opportunity offered him for clearing
himself from the diseredit of holding re-
lations with the Irish assassins, might
be justified if his political conduct had
been from the beginning above suspic-
ion.
The Daily News says it understands
that Parnell has consented TO reconsider
his purpose of moving an amendment
to the address in reply 10 the speech
from the throne, arraigning the Execu-
tive of Ireland for the administration Of
| the Grimes Act.

patch, in which Macadaras denied that

Bros, his attorneys, Macadaras visited

and laid his case before him. Morton
| introduced Macadaras TO an American
lawyer named Kelly, connected with
the firm of Condert Bros. These three
gentlemen framed the telegram men

yam, Chief Secretary for Ireland, Lord
Lyons, the British Ambassador, having
first approved it.

BERLIN. Feb. 23.-The Landtag dis
cussed the estimates of the Ministry of
Worship. Windthorst, leader of the
Clerical party, said the government was
blamable for conflict with the Vatican,
as it had not been in earnest in its ne
gotiations. The government is not de-
sirous of peace with the Vatican, though
the Emperor is in favor of it. Sch0r-
lemer affirmed that the State would be
/ forced 10 make peace with the Roman
Curia, in order TO terminate the expat-
ration Of the Catholic communities,
which promoted Generalization and
prepared the way for the triumph of So
cialism.

Mutiny in the Missouri States Prison.

JEFFERSON, Mo-, Feb. 23.-The con-
victs in the penitentiary had just re-
turned to their shops from dinner to-
day when a preconcerted mutiny broke
out in the harness shop of Jacob Strauss
& Co. -Four men seized Van Horn, the
foreman of the collar shop, and told
Linl to remain quiet, and four men
also seized Snider, the foreman of the
harness shop, and stripped him of his
clothing. Jno b. johnson, the ring
leader, highway robber, under sem
lance of twelve years, ran into the de-
partment where the horse collars are
stuffed and set q lot of loose straw on
fire. In a moment the building with
its three harness, collar and whip shops
was on fire and pandemonium prevailed.
When the guards ran in with hose they
were met by the convictS, who cut the
hose. johnson made an effort to escape
over the wall, but despite the fact that
ed by Jesse Tolin and put in the dun
geon. his seven companions were also
confined in dark cells. The fire was got
under control, but has completely dcs-
troyed Strauss & Co.'S harness shop
and collar and whip factory. Their loss
is 100000; Geisick & Co.'s Boot and
Shoe Company lose 800, 900; the Mysen-
burg Shoe Company, $4,000; the State
Weaving and State machine shop, $780,
900; the Excelsior Loom factory, S20.-
600. The total loss, with the damage
to the minor state buildings, will be
$500, 900. The excitement attending
the fire has subsidized and the officers at
the prison are getting into shape again
this evening. The blow dealt to the
State is severe one and The peniten-
tiary, which has not recovered from the
disastrous fire of nearly two years ago,
will be of little use to the State for an
other six months. The buildings des-
troyed are owned bv the State The

EAST TAwAs, Mich, Feb. %. An
argument arose between two transfers
at Brow's Camp as to who hauled the
heaviest load of logs, one having 1900
feet of logs and the other POO feet.
The dispute resulted in favor of the
smaller load, and at night when most
of the men had retired the victor was
seated beside stove head bowed down.
The other man came in and with one
blow of the axe completely severed the
head from the body of the victor, and
while the head laid upon the floor, the
mouth and eyes opened and closed once
or twice. The cry of murder was given
and. sixty men hurriedly arose from
bed, saw the fearful deed, and without
further ceremony took log chain and
hung the murderer to the first tree, and
viii not allow him to be taken down

Don't Want Reciprocity.

WASHINGTON, Feb 22.-The Senate
Finance Committee is adverse TO the
Mexican treaty. Senator Morrill,, the
chairman of the Committee, is very Bit
ter in the denunciation of it, and does
not hesitate to say that it is job gotten
up purely in the interests of railroad
spectators. Most of the members
of the Committee think it is too sweep
ing free trade proposition to be ac-
cepted, particularly as its effects prom
Use to be very far-reaching. 1t is learned
here that the Mexican Government is
now negotiating a reciprocity treaty
with Germany. 1t is claimed, therefore,
that Germany would be able to send
through Mexico hardware and a number
of other articles to undersell us. The
Senate Finance Committee do not in
tend to take any action ON the treaty
this session. The Pennsylvania Protec-
tionists have come here in body TO
fight the treaty. 1t is to them that these
assurances OF non-action are made.

JEFFERSON. Feb. 2l-The arguments
in the Kodish murder trial before the
Circuit Court, here, were closed, this af-
ternoon, and the case submitted. Judge
Burnett made charge TO the jury, and
after celebrating n few hours verdict
of murder in the first degree was rem
dered against John Kodish and his wife,
Barbara Kodish. The prisoners have
been sentenced, and their punishment
is Stale Prison for life. Their counsel
made q motion for new trial, which
will be argued March 8. Kodish and
his wife are natives of Bohemia, aud
have resided in WATERFOWL for eighteen
years. The former is CT years old, and
the latter 90. Mrs. kodish, mother of
John Kodish, for whose murder they
stand convicted, was an old woman, 96
years of age, and lived with her son
thirty-three years. Her death, under
the circumstances produced in court,
was n revolving and unnatural crime,
and the verdict is generally approved.
