Grant loaned me money when had
sickness in my family, and when went
to pay it back to him, ne looked up over
his paper and said: Never mind it

house rent I'll take it, Grant was
very particular about his orders. If
one of us disobeyed he was sure to lose
his situation in hurry. And then
again he was very particular about
Ms. Grants orders. 1t wouldn't do to
argue any of her orders with the gen

would say in that quiet way of his.

A Texas paper says that two RAM
bouillet bucks, recently purchased by
Colonel Henderson, in fight with
cayotes. killed two Of the beasts. 1t is
fact that these bucks viii fight any
dog, and having great power, could
easily kill him, but the Rambouillet as
q cayo.e destroyer is comparatively
new. Wolves and dogs have, as far
back as we can remember, been looked
upon as great enemies of flockmasters
The editor SAYS: If we can introduce
buck into this country which will not
only stand off the dogs. but butt the
brains out OF the savage cayote, why
that buck is just the fellow for us.

Enlse Economy.

The action of coroner's juries, like
that of petit iuries, is fast becoming
as unscrutable as the operations OF
providence. A few week ago n case
was reported from New Jersey, where
q young girl was brutally abused by
two ruffains and then deliberately burn
ed, and the jury returned a verdict
censuring no one. Now comes another
from Connecticut in which jury sum-
moned to investigate the death of a
circus employee who had been beaten
to death by fellow employees deliber-
ately refused to hold an inquest on the
remains, on the ground of saving ex-
pense. This saving of expense by the
way is probably responsible for more
failures in the proper execution of
the laws than any other one moving
cause, especially in rural communities
where even small increase Of taxation
is looked upon with much the same
dread as the approach of the cholera.
The fear of expense is often potent
argument against that searching inves-
tigation, without which, it is often inn
possible to secure the punishment OF
guilty parties, especially in crimes OF
the higher grades. And, as if to COM
plete the anamoly, those who have thus
unconsciously barred the road of jus
tice, are the very ones that enveigh the
most bitterly against the deterioration
ofcourts and the imposSibiity to secure
the conviction of criminals. This Il
wrong. Justice can not be secured
without expense. The higher the crime
the greater the outlay. owing tc
-~the desperate attempts Of the criminals
To cover their tracks. Rightly admin
lstrated the law should pursue its course
undetered by false economy, or in fact
without taking financial views into an,
consideration whatever. 1t must b,
unfettered TO be the irresistible fore,

ing down every barrier and uncoverin.

Carncross' Minstrels will occupy the
boards at the Opera House this evening
The reputation of Carncross as conductor
of first-class miustrelsy should be a guaran
tee of the excellence of the performance
The program contains number of features
which bears laugh in their name.
In speaking of thatcher, Primrose and
Vests Minstrels, which will appear here on
Monday evening, the Providence Courier
Journal says:
One of the very best minstrel perfor-
mances ever given in this city, not exclud-
ing the famous San Francisco minstrels,
took place at the Providence Opera House,
last evening. Everything was good, and
the greater part very superior, and, for an
absolute wonder there was something orig
NAL. Mr. Thatcher, as is well-known, is q
very admirable comedian, and in addition
his familiar specially, his scene with the
telephone was an inimitable burlesque.
MIR. Billy Rice was equally original and
amusing in lis song of "Tidings of Com
fort" And l say many other features OF
the program might be specified for excel.
lence, and with such comedians as Thatcher
Rice, Hughey Dongherty and the Rankins
such dancers as Primrose and West, Frank
McNish, Charles Queen and others, com.
pany of excellent vocalists and a fine or
chestra, the whole performance could no
but be of the first class, as in fact it was.

Badly or.

Last evening about $50 O'Clock persons for
tunate enough to be in the vicinity of Sixth
and King streets were edited aud amused by
the angry antics of Hubbard H. NJ. Ely to-
ward j. Horace Rudolph. About the time
mentioned Ely came out of the post office
in company with Mr.. Rudolph, gesticulat-
ing wildly and swinging his heavy cane in a
reckless manner. Finally the obstreperous
gentleman could contain himself
no longer, and he pushed Mr.
Rudolph partly down the stone steps
of the building. The gentleman recovered
himself and made no reply to Ely, but
walked short distance of. Ely left NUT
tering all manner of threats and covering
Mr.. Rudolph with his maledictions. The
cause of the worthy citizens anger is
stated to be as follows: Ely entered the
post office, and seeing Rudolph there ac-
costed him in relation to the contest in the
Fifth ward, asking him what he thought
Beecher's chances were. Rudolph replied
that lie would not received enough votes to
warm himself. This, Ely took as an insult,

now manifest to all the world that complete
unity exists among the Russian people. The
existence of such feeling will aid i'll Civ

A White Haired Prisoner Overcome
While Being Sentenced.

white-haired old colored man, who was
convicted in the United States District Court
of having embezzled letter containing a
check for $780, drawn TO the order Of Lewis
Wolfing, was called up before Judge Butler
for sentence to-day
The convicted prisoner approached the bar
with faltering steps. He said that he had
never been in a courtroom befeore except
as a spectator.
The Judge made some remarks before i'm
posing sentence. Before he had finished,
the prisoner, who had been trembling vio-
lently, fell in a swoon. A low cry arose
from the crowd in the room. Two officers
carried the old man into the freer air of the
hallway.
When he revived he was told that the
Judge had decided to defer sentence to an
other day.
The old man, however, with tears in his
eyes, begged to have the matter ended at
once. He said that he was quite strong
again and would try to bear up.
The Court decided to crafty him and he
was brought to the bar again. He trem-
bled, however, In spite of himself, and as
the Court imposed upon him a sentence of
nine months Imprisonment and fine of
800 he fell again into the waiting arms of
tipstaff. He was not unconscious, but SO
affected that he could not stand, and when
after little time he was led to the rear of
the court room, the tears were standing in
big drops on his cheeks.

Keeping a Boy From His Mother.

PHILADELPHIA, May 25.-I.ast September

cumstances and placed her two year-old boy
in the care of Mrs. VoI Sieden, of No. 722
Noble street, agreeing to pay 81 a week for
his board until she should be able to take
care of him again. Having procured en-
ployment with a farmer living near Strouds
burg, who gave her permission to keep her
child at his house, Mrs. Lloyd called on
Mrs. Won Sieden and asked for her boy. To
her dismay Mrs Van Sieden said she did not
know where he was, and when Mrs. Lloyd
declined to believe this statement she said
the boy has been placed in St. Vincent's
Home. The boy was rot fonnd at the Home
and Mrs Lloyd asked the Society for Pro
tecting Children to aid her in recovering
him. To an agent of the society Mrs. Won
Sieden admitted that she knew where the
boy was, but refused to give him up, be-
cause, she said, she loved him as if he was
her own. A writ OF habeas corpus to pro-
duce the boy was served on her, but she
went before Judge Finletter and repeating
her refusal was committed to prison for
