Saturday night. In one OF the most preten-
tious residence dwelt Garrett Maybe-, his
wife lydia, aged II, and daughter. aged ~.
Mr. Maybee is as wears old, paralized In the
lower limbs and totally blind Late Sstur-
day afternoon airs. Maybee went to the barn.
as wards distant. TO mix the cows and was
soon followed by her daughter with lighted
lantern. Maybee was left alone Sooh after
six O'Clock faint cries of murder were
heard. The neighbors quickly went TO the
house where the old gentleman was uncon-
scious with blood flowing from wounds on
the head and face He soon rallied, exclaim-
ing Il am murdered and robbed, and my
family murdered - He said man had
entered the house, explored the rooms and
finally came to him aud demanded his watch
under the pain of death. Maybee replied he
had none and the robber, after searching the
clothing, seized heavy stick and struck him
several blows upon the head. A search was
made for the ladies, whose dead bodies were
found in a COW stall covered with leaves.
There was no blood to be seen. The only
signs of violence were marks on the throats
resembling those OF a thumb and nnger-
There is no clue to the murderer, but sus-
picon point TO man in the nighborhood,
who has been around for year OF more but
never giving any name, and who repeatedly
visited neighboring farm houses asking for
meals. 1t is feared that Maybee's injuries,
together with the shock, may result fatally.
The town offers $500 reward for the murd-
erer's apprehension.

The annual report of L.. S. Treasurer
Wyman gives in official form and COM
pleteness pleasant statistics with which
the people are already familiar. The bur-
den of the report is that the Treasury is
bursting with money, that swift and steady
progress is being made in the reduction
of the public debt. that the financial opera
tons of the government are attended with
success, and that the only embarrassment
and danger is from the very abundance OF
our prosperity. In the fiscal year ending
June Soth, 1888, the total receipts OF the
government were SS9S. 2S7 .5Sl. and
the expenditures s265, 4os.l S7; in other
words, we spent last year only
two-thirds OF our income. Mr.. wy
man shows that the rapid payment
OF the interest bearing debt will soon at
feet national bank circulation very materi-
ally. as S2o9, 6SS. $50 in the three per cen,
bonds, or two-thiris the entire loan, were
held by these banks at the close of the
year. The number of individual bondhold-
ers Is reduced from 50.S50 to 1854, and
the number Of foreign holders of register.
Cd bonds has fallen from 1,lSl to 495. No
estimate is given of foreign holders of
coupon bonds. but it is known that by far
the largest part OF our national debt is
owned BY our own citizens.
