AFTER the rumpus oyer the ''expedited''
mail service has subsidized, that is. if the
star route trials ever come to an end, there
is another branch of expedited service
that can properly come in for little at
tention. The figures show that last year
under the highly moral and virtuous adj
ninistrarfon of President Arthur, the In
dian service cost $9A36, 747.4O more than
in any other year since. the formation of
the government of the~NAited States.
Why so? There were no tfozsA 4ndians
than in former years, but on The other
hand the Indian population constantly
grows less, but since the induction of
the remarkable peace policy under Grant
the cost has been vastly augmented
From 1855 to 1868 the cost of the Indian
service was $49,305, 1890. From 1869 to
1882 the cost was $91, 243, 731 59-an excess
of nearly forty-two millions of dollars, the
two periods being identical in point
OF time. The first was period of frugality
and honest administration, tie last a
regime OF fne-spun philanthropy, extrava-
gance and corruption. 1t is quite time for
the people to look into their affairs, and
wipe out the great abuses of public trusts
that began under Grant and have con-
tinued ever since. There is abundant work
for the next Congress. Reform Is neces-
sary, and it should be vigorously instituted.

A MONTH ago Joseph Brady, charged
with the murder of Lord Cavendish and
Under Secretary Burke, was found guilty
of the crime, and yesterday he was execn =
ted, a gathering of ten thousand people
standing with uncovered heads as his soul
was waited into eternity. That he was
concerned il the conspiracy which resulted
in tbs murders unfortunately admits of
little doubt: that he was guilty of actual
participation in the murder is merely sup
position, based upon the statements of in
formers who were themselves self-con-
victed of the most atrocious crimes.
Brady died with the air of a martyr, and
such no doubt he will be regarded by
many thousands who have no sympaty for
murderers and cannot. approve of assassina,
ton as a means of accomplishing political
ends.

a PIcrURE-politely speaking a painting
WAS sold the other day for $4,000. The
gentleman who caused the picture to be
sold was Mr.. Jas. r. Keene. He paid
$4,000 for it, but that was one day when
he thought he knew something about art.
Having found out his mistake he sacrificed
$4,000 to get rid of his work of "art." VIM.
Il. Vanderbilt, who knows about as much
about art as goat does of chemistry, has
paid as much as $4,000 for a "pictur.''
A. I. Stewart paid $4,000 for a painting,
though he admired and enjoyed the
gorgeous frame more than he did the
decorated canvas. It is very
iamiable in these rich men to
encourage the artists, and it is fortunate
for the artists that the rich men know
nothing of art. The country is full of
mere daubs, that are oftener purchased be-
cause surrounded with a frame that is
more artistic than the alleged picture.
There is this compensation, that the money
Monsieur Shoddy pays out does some
good, even if very little of it finds it's way
to genuine artists.

Mr.. PULITZER, the new owner of the New

read the World will give thanks that there
the Cockney Jennings is to be dispensed
with. This country had enough Of him
while he was with the New York Times. A
paper such as Mr.. Pulitzer proposes to
make of the World is what New York and
the United States wants, and will encour-

A TOWN WIPED OUT.

CARTHAGE, Mo-, May 14.-At 7:4O yester-
day evening a storm which had been
threatening for hours struck the town of
Orange, few miles west of here in the
shape of cyclone and in few minutes
the town was entirely destroyed with the
exception of few dwellings. Six persons
were killed and thirty three wounded,
many seriously and perhaps fatally. The
storm was not so disastrous to Webb City
as at first reported. A very few people
were hurt and none killed, and but few
houses unroofed and some moved off their
foundations. Business signs were crrried
three miles from the city by the wind.
Joplin and Carthage escaped with very
little injury but the storm passed up the
Spring river valley moving everything in
its wake, killing and injuring people and
stock. The cyclone was about 200 yards
wide and travelled in northeasterly d.
rection.

ing shelves in one of the closets, on which
lay pistol, brushed the weapon off. The
trigger struck the shelf below and the
weapon was exploded, and the ball striking
her in the side of the head, crushed through
the skull and lodged in the brain. The
sharp crack of the pistol summoned her
husband and the servants. She died few
minutes later. She was member of al
most all the church societies, was attractive
in personal appearance, and the rector and
herself lived in handsome style in an ele-
CANT house, 95 Summit avenue.
Another account of the accidental shoot
ing of Mrs. Maria Stoddard, wife of the
rector of st, Johns Episcopal church, is
tbs absorbing topic of conversation to-
night. The facts of the shooting were
learned by county physician Converse this
evening, and he has ordered an inquest.
Mrs. Stoddard was cleaning out
a bureau when she found a
pistol. Her husband who was
by her side, and who was the only person
present at the time of the accident, took
the weapon and started for room ad-
joining. AS he turned to enter the room,
the pistol strsck against the door and was
discharged, the bullet entering his wife's
head. about two inches behind the ear. She
fell back in his arms unconscious. Ae
lifted her to the bed and called for help.
Four physicians arrived, but Mrs. Stod-
dard expired shortly after the accident.

The st. Landry Democrat has
been complaining bitterly Of the action
of the Morgan Railroad in advancing
freights forty per cent. as soon as low
water put an end to navigation in Bay
GU Boeuf and the Atchafalaya, land
calls upon the people to see to it that
at the next State election on man shall
represent them in the General Assem-
bly, who will not first pledge himself
to use his aid and influence in suppress
ing this-and other monopolies of sim
liar nature, and put himself squarely
on record as being fairly, squarely, IN
equivocally and publicly pledged to
the passage Of a law establishing a
railroad commission for the State,
clothed with ample powers to take the
various railroad companies in our State
in hand and compel the carrying of
freight and passengers at reasonable
rates.
For some time past a belief has been
obtaining that this State has been too
careless as regards the powers given
railroad monopoIes, and that it is get
ting high time steps were being taken
to dsarm such monopolies of the pow
er with which the State has invested
them, and which, in number of cases
has beeen abused and carried to such
a length that the people have begun
to protest in language not to be mis-
understood.
1t is to be hoped that at the next
session of the General assembly this
matter will be taken up and measures
enacted that will prevent a repetition
Of such methods as have been adopted
by this Morgan road and practiced up
on the people who are left to it's ten
