SETTLING A WAGER,
Last evening Charles Eckmau decided
an election wager by hauling John Fine
frock on a wheelbarrow from the upper
Reading depot to Centre Square, a dis.
tance of about a mile. According to
agreement Eckman wore the uniform of
the Young Mems Republican club, to
which he belongs, and at intervals
along the route chsered for Cleveland.
Quite a procession followed the wheel.
barrow, which was decorated with Chi
nese lanterns. A drum corps furnished
the music and large flag bearing the
names of the successful candidates was
carried by several boys. Eckman wheeled
his man to the IETELLIGENcER office,
where he dumped him and, after three
cheers for Cleveland we're given, the
party dispersed.

A Lively Runaway,

This morning a rather lOw-sprited
looking grey horse, hitched to o wagon in
which there was q new stove, stood in
front Of Kepler's hardware store on North
Queen street, thinking of Thanksgiving.
Suddenly he imagined that he ought to
run away, and when another team came up
behind him he started up street. His
wagon first struck another of the same
kind turning it almost completely around
but doing no damage. Near Orange street
two mules with load of corn behind
them were sleepily going north at the
time. The runaway team ran into them,
breaking the coupling pole Of the wagon.
In front of Copland's there was horse
and butcher wagon, which was occupy.
ing considerable of the street; the runaway
animal seemed to be aware of this fact aud
dashed into the wagon which quickly
few around, man who was in the vehicle
was thrown over the dasher and was
quietly lying on the Belgian blocks before
he knew what had struck him. The grey
horse continued up street to tho City
hotel, where he was captured. The wagon
had an axle broken and a part of it was
left sticking to the wheel. Strange to say
the little stove, which was the sole oocu.
pant OF the wagon, was but slightly
broken. The quiet-looking horse which
created all this disturbance is owned by
Joseph Espenshade, Of East Lampeter
and the driver, who was
as we'll as disRusted at the con-
duct Of the animal, was Elm Pickle.

CREMAToRY FOR CHOLERA.
Among the SUBJECTS that came up before
the Philadelphia health board at its
meeting Tuesday was q suggestion by DR..
g. Bolton Massey for tho erection Of a
crematory In connection with the mu-
nicipal hospital. The communication con
tinues
"Suoh disposition of the first fata
cases might do much to arrest the early

sir Charles e. Seiveiile, Bsrt =, on Trial as
Toledo tor biRamy.
The greatest local sensation of the year
in Toledo o., eliminated Tuesday in the
opening of the trial of Sir Charles Z.
Neiveille, bart, alias Sir Roger Arthur
TichbourLe, alias Charles Newbold charged
with bigamy. He came to Toledo May Q,
in company with Lillian, youngest daughter
of G, J, Whitney, the millionaire music
publisher, OF Detroit. He had been EN-.
ployed as coachman by Whitney, and, in
teaching the daughter to ride, had taught
her t. love him. She was IL years old and
he 40, They were married here, but were
discovered and separated by Whitney.
Neiveille was locked up in Jail and Miss
Whitney is an asylum.
While in jail Neiveille made startling
assertion that he was the long lost Itch
bourne heir. He told the story circu mstau
TALLY then, and sticks to it now. He is a
distinguished looking man, of British cast,
aud talks cockney. Whitney employed a
detective, and soon learned that Neiveille
had two wives in Dstroit, one il Schenec
tady, aud one in PeteTboro, Ontario that
he had married Celina Maud Rolie of
Newark, n. j., few months before that
he had wife in Paterson, N. j., and had
served term in Sing Sing and one In
.houtLoai iui oiBahyi aui, hudiy, tuat hc
had eloped with the jailer's wife at Cam.
bellsford, Ontario. His names were as
numerous az his wives, of whom, it ia
estimated, that he had not less than ten.
Most of them are still living.
To-day two Of the women he had
married, Lillian Whitney and Celina Maud
Role, faced him 10 the court room Two
men VINO had married him and two wit
nesses to different ceremonies also ap-
peared. The defense in the case tried to
delay proceedings but in vain. A jury was
empannelled lsta in the afternoon and two
witnesses werL sxamiued for the state.
One testified to giving marriage license
to Neiveille aud Whitney, the other to
marrying them. Nsiveille claims to have
papers in his possession which will prove
his innocence. Miss Whitney, who was
thought to be insane at the time of the
marriage is now determined to shoot the
prisoner.

ascribed to him by Philadelphia inter-

Telegraph, which was responsible for the
original publication, reiterates the truth
and says that If Mr.. Bruce was misre
ported at all it was only In that the
publication of his interview withheld
some things "which would not be agree

This Is very plausible and, likely, a
very truthful statement. Mr.. Bruce is

policy declared by Cleveland and not in

The lunacy committee Of the board O 4

ommendod TO the board the advocacy
before the next Legislature of bill ap-
propriating $3.50, 600 for the erection of
hospital for insane criminals, as suggested
by commission appointed by the Legis.
lature in 1875. The committee states that
the number of insane in the state Is 6. 304,
and the present accommodations pro.
vide for less than half that number. A
few over crowd the state hospitals some
have suitable private treatment, but by
far the larger part are either In pris.

Music has received quite an Impulse at

opening OF musical reading room, sup
piled with musical journals and books of
reference. 1t is on small scale as yet.
but 1t may grow. One thing that the
school greatly needs is general reading
room, and it is to be hoped that the prin-
cipal and trustees will supply this need at
an early day.
Saturday noon much amusement was

them, though inwardly pretty sore, took
the Joke in good part 1t must be- said of
them, that during their terrible dissp

admirably, and their Democratic friends
have refrained from offensive remarks.
Candidates for postmaster of Milersville
are springing up in every fence corner
Some were not aware that there were so

Grim, Gerth, Brown, Smith aud Fenster-

urged that when the appointment is
made the interests OF the Normal school
will be consulted, as three fourths, perhaps
nine tenths, of the business Of the post

1t is understood that there would have
been change next spring in any case, as
the present incumbent, A. o. Newpher,

PolIutfng Drinking Water a Nuisance


Judge Thayer, who is probably the
ablest of the Philadelphia judges, has
instructed the juries who are trying par
ties accused of polluting the Schuylkill
above the waterworks, that 1t is An ir-
dictable nuisance to permit any foul
matter to pass into the river that will
damage the water for drinking purposes
The judge said he epHld conceive of nc
greater nuisance than the pollution OF
the drinking water Of the people, and
that the jury had only to consider
whether the accused persons had al
lowed injurious matter to pass into the
Schuylkill to find them guilty. This
will strike the general understanding as
good sense and good law. It Is certainly
true that We have right to pure drink
ing water, and that we should be
protected in 1t by the law. The waters of
the rivers and streams above and below
the ground may be used for drinking
purposes. Ali the water on the earth,
save the brackish water of the sea, is
generally capable of use for drinking
purposes.
1t would seem therefore that Judge
Thayer's law, which is commended by
the public sense, forbds the casting of
any foul matter into fresh water
streams, above or below ground.
This being the law, it will be at once
noted that the law is not obeyed. Our
surface streams are used for the pur-
pose Of carrying off the sewerage of our
towns, and the streams below the ground
which supply our wells are used in like
manner to take away the drainage of our
cess pools. Wells in thickly populated
districts cannot be used because of the
generally porous character Of the water ;
and now it lis happening that the borders
OF our streams are becoming so densely
populated as to cause their water to be
unfit for the drinking use of cities.
The law which protects them from
pollution has been In allegiance. Judge
Thayer and his juries revive 1t in Phila-
delphia and punish few of the nearest
transgressors. But what are the judges
and juries going to do with the towns on
the Schuylkill above Philadelphia that
empty their sewerage into the stream ?
And what is TO be done with all the
other towns in the country which pol
Lutte its streams What is to be done
with Philadelphia itself or 10 she to be
permitted to empty her sewers into the
Delaware and Schuylkill on the theory
that their waters below her limits are
not drinking waters
With the law, as Judge Thayer ex-
pounds il. and his juries execute it, we
think the officers of all cities with
sewers have cause to feel uneasy, lest
they may shortly find themselves in
Jail. g.
