THE hitch between the school depart.
ment and Senator Coke recalls similar
experience of a representative of the
INTELLIGENCER once upon time with
the auditor generals department under
its present administration. Applying for
the privilege of examining the bills for
supplies furnished to the state, he was
asked what was wanted with them, and
upon answering that it was for publica-
tion, was denied even sight at them
Insisting upon his right as citizen to
examine the public records he was told
that he might see them as private citi-
zen, but not unless he would agree to
make no memorandum of them for pub
lication, though the chief clerk admitted
that If he scrutinized and carried away
in his memory any knowledge of their
contents to be used as an editor, the de-
partment could not prevent that. OF
course, upon mature consideration of
the request and a reference of it to the
chief of the department, such toploftical
nonsense was abandoned and free access
given to all the records of the state-as
should be afforded to all citizens at all
times by all public officers.

The last state elections proved the
nearly even balance of political parties
in this state, and the DemOcratsI in
liberal recognition of their apparent
slight minority, propose to give the Re-
publicans fifteen congressional districts
and take thirteen for themselves. The
Republican proposed apportionment
provides for sixteen Republican districts,
nine Democratic and three doubtful,
giving the seventy thousand Democrats
of Philadelphia no member. The Dem
ocrats of the Legislature should stay in
session until Christmas rather than yield
to such hoggishness as that.

P0ro HAllucinatfOn
London Dispatch to the World.
Those likely to be best informed regard
the statement of Lady Florence Dixie as
to the attack made upon her near Windsor
as pure fabrication. Not trace of any
struggle can be found on the damp mould
on which the struggle is alleged to have
taken place. Two large men dressed in
women's clothes could not possibly have
reached her house without being seen.
Three men, a soldier, publican and q
gardener, who were all within few yards
Of the scene of the alleged struggle at
the time alleged, have all been examined
and neither saw nor heard anything of it.
Lady Florence herself is now bewildered
about it, and it is unnecessary to say that
she has the reputation of being half-mad.
It is now known that she wrote to Parnell
on his release avowing herself to be a
strong nationalist and urging him to act
with her,

TO-DAYrs SESSIONS.

Finishing Up the Conference work.
L. Conference was called to order at

Tho Lybrand Testimonial.
Mr.. Gray said it had been his privilege
to enter the church under the ministry of
the sainted Lybrand the father, who has
long since passed to his reward and in
1S43 he became acquainted with the son,
who is now with us. He then informed
him that he believed the dispensation of
the gospel had been committed to him.
He entered this conference and for thirty
years served it as statistical secretary. A
committee was appointed at the confer
ence of last year to prepare for Brother
Lybrand a testimoial for his long and
faithful services. 1t is the privilege Of the
committee this morning to present brother
Lybrand check for $20O. This is not Of
course sufficient peouniary reward for
the important services rendered by him,
but is simply token of the affectionate
regard 10 which he is held by the confer
ence. Mir Gray presented the following
report which was adopted
We tho undersigned, q committee ap.
pointed last year to raise testimonial for
Rev. g. W. Lybrand, have performed the
duty assigned rs and take pleasure in
reporting $500, as the sum total Of con-
tributi0ns. We express the sense If this
conference when We say that his labors are
highly appreciated and regret the necessity
for bjs refusal to serve in the capacity Of
Ata.istieal secretary.

A WOMAN FATALLY BURNED.
A Tramp Arrested on Suspicion of Beins {

A Tramp Arrested on Suspicion of Being the
Cause OF 1t.
Up to Monday Charles Horn and family,
consisting of his wife and three children,
resided in small house in the village of
Springville, above Mt. Joy. They were
very poor, and being unable to pay their
rent were turned out of the house. As
the weather had been fine for several days
they started on a tramp on Monday, in
tending to secure living by begging and
peddling. Yesterday they camped in
Kauffman's woods, which is in Rapho
township, about a half mile from the town
of Mannheim, where they built q tire.
The man started to town, leaving
his wife and children in the woods. Some
time during the day persons residing in
the neighborhood were attracted to the
camp and a horrible sight met their gaze.
Mrs. Horn was lying beside the fire in a
helpless condition, her clothing was en-
was found that her body was burned
80 that she could scarcely see.
able to talk intelligently. She said
she was sitting at the camp, while the
children were playing near by, when a
made an attack upon her, throwing the
fire at her. Her clothing took fire, and as
there was a stiff breeze blowing she was
soon in the condition as when found. Tho
man fled at once. She gave a description
of the fellow, and man who tailed with
it was arrested by Constable Watson. He
is repuIsive looking tramp, who gave his
name as John Lough. Squire Gibble
committed him to Jail for hearing, and
he was brought to town this morning.
The injured woman was taken to the
Washington hotel, in Mannheim, with her
husband and children. It is impossible
for her to recover, and her death is ex-
pected any moment. The children say
that they saw no man at the camp, but the
woman declares that they we're at another
part of the woods when the affair occurred.
Some people in the vicinity doubt the
story and think that the woman's clothing
accidentally caught fire.

The Cameron forces nave accom-
plished their purposes in Chester county
by securing the nomination, equivalent
to an election, of A. D. Harlan, of
Coatesville, to succeed Mr.. Everhart in
in the state Senate. Everhart could lie
relied upon as an opponent of Cameron,
and he was not afraid to vote against his
election even as the regular Republican
caucus nominee. His election to Con-
gress was a relief to the Cam
eron people, who did not look
with favor upon the prospect of his pre-
sence and vote in the Senate in 1885.
But there was danger to them that his
successor would be no better. That
danger has been averted by the success
Of Harlan. He is loyal henchman of
the clan. He will do its bidding in
spite of the wishes of his constituents.
Cameron has scored point for his re-
11ection.

Observance of Spy Wednesday.

Spy Wednesday, or the day set apart
for public execration OF the base betrayal
of Christ by Judas Iscariot, was appropri-
ately observed in the Episcopalian and
Catholic churches to-day. 1t rings up the
curtain on the first of a series of acts
which lead up to the tragedy Of the Cross
with its glorious den0uement, the resurrec-
tion. At St. Peters in Rome, and at the
great cathedrals of the Catholic church in
this and other lands, where the highest
pomp and most solemn ceremonial required
by the ritual are observed, this day marks
the beginning of Isne6r0, an evening
service, 80 called because of the symbol

FEATURES OF THE STATE PRESS.

FEATURES OF THE STATE PRESS.
The Reading Herald. Philadelphia Cron
scle, and the Eoening Telegraph all deplore
the facility with which divorces are oh
tanned in this state.
The Scranton Republican declares that
there is not upon the files of Senate or
House a single measure whose defeat
would be loss to the state even were the
Legislature to adjourn tomorrow.
The Pittsburgh Dispatch thinks that
some of the live questions are what are to
be properly classified as political offences
and political offenders, and what the
bounds and limits of extradition.
Tue Easton Argus hopes the Democrats
will have the courage and ability to
squarely face the apportionment issue and
approach this difficult subject in fair,
impartial spirit.
The Doylestown Democrat is rejoiced
that the proposition to change the mum
bsr of senators to the state Senate back to
SO, and the members of the House to 100,
does not meet with favor.
The Altoona Tribune declares it is the
duty of every editor to keep the successive
issues of his journal as clean and pure as
he possibly can. Even with his most
rigid scrutiny he will often-more oftenel
than otherwise-fail to reach the standard
which he has SET"
The Philadelphia Eoening Nea,s thinks
it was best for Rev. DR.. Everett to be
located as, shedding quasi political rela.
ton, he is in danger of being criticised
and even arraigned in conference for mat
ters over which an inferior body would
exercise no control"
To the Germantown Telegraph "the
contrast between the liberality of. private
business men and firms and the parsimo.
nious meanness of politicians and public
officials, in the matter of newspaper ad
vertising, is nowhere more remarkable
than in Philadelphia.
The Pittsburgh Leader is not yet per
suaded to "Pive up the splendid American
idea Of throwing the responsibility of pro-
tecting their own honor on the girls them.
selves, by which plan it is more vigilantly
guarded than it could be by the most
careful watching of all the parents ir
Christendom."
The Pittsburgh Post does not think Mr..
Randall will be defeated in the Demo-
cratic caucus. When the time for action
comes it will be found the business senti
ment of the country demands his election
as speaker, as a guarantee there will be
no disturbance Of the tariff until it has
