Of Claiborne and st. Philip streets. For
some time the bloody affair was enVel-
Oped in mystery,
Although occurring in broad daylight
and on popul0us thOrOughtare' there
seemed to be no person who was able
to throw light Oh the deed, or who
could furnish evidence necessary to
enable the courts to act. NotWlth-
standing, however,
CERTAIN ARRESTS
were made, some as charged with the
crimes, others as suspicious, and quite
number of witnesses in the case. Since
Tuesday last the grand jury of the par
isl has had the affair in hand, during
which time and up to half-past six
O'Clock last evening that body has eX-
amined in the neighbOrhOOd OF one
hundred and twenty witnesses, and ex-
erted itself in other ways to ascertain
the real facts in the case. The result OF
it all has been the following:

The white House Barber Must
GOs

when Grant was President he had a
colored barber, whom he had designat-
ed to shave him. appointed to a clerk
ship, in the Fourth Auditors office,
Treasury Department. At least he was
carried on the rolls of Office as clerk,
but he did but little work in the treasu-
~. He barberized Grant twice week:
and also shaved Porter, Babcock and
others of Grants official household.
He was not kept at work one hour a
day on an average. Hayes kept him,
and so did Garfield. He is now the
official barber of the White House, and,
besides attending to the President,
sbaves Phillips, the private secretary,
and the White House clerks. Through
an intimate friend he tried to fix him
self with Gov. Cleveland, Cleveland's
answer was, after hearing. the applcar
tion: "That's one Office | will abolish.

have to pay for my barber.-Hartford

has there been anything to equal it.
Nearly every parish in the northern
portion of the State has had the subject

most of the cases, very nearly all, when
voted upon temperance has been victOv
is the part the press is taking in the is
sue in favor of temperance. Newspa--
Ders that until recently opposed local

be admitted that the good result are
attributable, to q large extent, TO the
