A Fatal Recognition.

At So'clock last Thursday evening a farmer
named Harrington, living two miles from
Geneva, Ohio, was called 10 the door by a
knock, and opening it, was confronted bya
masked man, who sighted along the barrel of
a revolver and demanded, L want your mon
ey.r Harrington took a small sum from his
pockets and handed it to to the robber, who
took it and cried, That is not all 1 want the
balance At that moment the handkerchief
fell from his eyes, and Ms. Harrington, stand
ing near exclaimed, ION, l know him. You
do, do YOU, shouted the rufian. Take that
them and ne fired, the bullet going through
her shoulder. She ran ont of the house
to a neighbours for help, returning
with friends. Evidences Of a desperate strug-
gle we're found in the house, and Harrington
lay dead on the floor with a bullet hole i'll his
forehead. Mrs. Harrington recognized the
murderer as a fellow named Teck, who lived
two miles from the farm. Citizens are scOur-
ing the country for him Lewis Webster has
been arrested on a charge for numbering Perry

Harrington, but whose name was first gwen as
Peck. The prisoner is a ~dissapated young fell

The burning of the Catholic orphan asylum
a. Brooklyn Thursday night proves 10 have
been a more terrible affair than at first report
ed. Search brought to light no less than thir-
teen bodies of children burned to death, and it
Is thought that more remain in the ruins.
Hundreds OF children in the asylum were
tenderly protected against all harm, except
that which could have been easily guarded
againt--fire. There was q very large water
hydrant in the yard with four butts, but there
was no hose in or about the building nor any
other means Of e~xtinsnishing fire, so what be-
gun ia q trivial accident ended in an awful
tragedy. The great trouble the firemen had
to encounter was the mansard roof on the en-
tire main structure, built Of wood, allowing
free access to the flames. 1t acted simply as q
ffuo. All efforts OF the firemen were futile In
THAR attempts TO combat the flames. The gates
were also locked ana young men of tho neigh
borh0od who saw tho fire hrst la to burst
| open the gates with a ramming iron before
they could get in.
The upper stories of the asylum were divided
into dormitories by stud and lath partition
walls. The flooring and wainscoting were OF q
yellow pine, and the space between the ceiling
and slate roof was not filled in, so that the fire
rapidly made its way along the upper floor.
There we're no dividing walls OF brick at any
point en- this door.

Attorney General Brswster's Regard for
Law.

In his communication to the house of repre-
sentatives in response to the resolution of that
body inquiring whether the eight-hour law is
applicable to letter carriers, the attorney gen
eral says, after reciting the resolution: "To
this / must reply thatI cannot furnish the legal
opinion required. The authority of the attor-
ney generate give his official opinion is limited
by laws which create. and define his Office, and
will not permit him to give advice at the call
Of either house Of congress or congress- itself,
but only to the president and heads of the ex-
ecutive departments. Early in the govern
ment this was established, and suggested te
the house OF representatives by Attorney Gen
eral Wirth. When the department Of justice
was created the law in this respect was no
changed. OF course it will be my wish to con
form to any request the house of representa-
tives may make, butsuch wish / cannot comply
with without reversing the law and precedenta
heretofore established.

During the last year, 500 speeches
were printed in the Congressional
Record which were not delivered IN the
House. How many undelivered Sena-
torial speeches were printed is not sta
ted. This is an immense abuse, and it
is a fraud on the people of the country.
Half of these speeches which are pub
lished, but not delivered, were not even
prepared and written by the Congress
men to whom they are credited, but
were written by literary iobbers for
compensation duly made.

The increase in the consumption of
oysters the past twenty-five years has
been enormous and consequently there
was a probability that the natural sup
ply would become exhausted. AS a
preventive measure oyster beds were
planted, which have proved so produc-
tive that the growing demand is readi-
ly supplied. Fortunately the fecundity
Of the oyster is predictions and its
growth rapid. About two millions of
infant oysters only occupy a cubic inch,
yet they are ready for market in from
two TO FIVE years; a sheltered locality is
favorable to quick Development. The

which attain maturity In artificial beds
are considered superior to those
dredgsd for IL natural breeding-

Massachusetts, and Virginia.

Uniontown, Pa, is as old. yet not one
fifth as large. as Richmond. Va, but 1t does
net follow that there has been anything
wrong In the management OF the Affairs OF
Uniontown. Williamsburg, Va. is not "a
large as many town not one tenth It's age.
but this fact argues nothing whatever As TO
fhe wisdom Of the founders or that OF the
present or late managers OF williamsburg.
Chicago is much larger than Boston. Balti-
more, or Cincinnati. But the size OF Chi.
cago Is no proof that the municipal affairs
OF the other cities named have not been
iudlciously managed.
So as to Massachusetts, and Virginia. To
hear northern people, and some southern
people talk, ore would suppose that Vir-
ginia had not increased in population half
g. fast rs Massachusetts. When the first
presidential election was held Virginia had
IL and Massachusetts, 10 electors. Now
Massachusetts, has l2 and Virginia only 10.
But leave out Boston, and Virginia has
a. many as Massachusetts,. The two
extra congressman are due TO a commerce
that Virginia lost by going into the Union.
Why not show how Massachusetts has
degenera,ed and fallen behind in the race
for empire by stating that in 1889 Massa-
chnsetts had twelve electoral votes and
Ohio none, whereas now Ohio has twenty
three and Massachusetts, only twelve: Or
LAY ,ba, OHIO has double the population Of
Massachusetts,. Is this fact due TO Bour-
bonism In Massachusetts
All such talk Il twaddle.
