idhlsoh N"uutyi WAS III INC CITY yesterday
He came down 10 renew rh3 Acquaintance
OF the young vJt3rs' Of this city, prepar i
tory to again entering the race for tn
appellate Clarhship Of this district He
comes early this time, because, when he
mad. the race against "BDb" Wtlbanks be-
fore, he found many voters who had pledg
ed themselves 10 his OppOneut. This, the
fourth, Judicial district Is composed of
thirty-four counties and il will take some
lively work to make the rounds; but Mr..
Burton is an energetic and determined
young man, qualities which count strongly
in favor Of a candidate, if properly used.
He will, Of course, have some strong oppo-
nents, among them, probably some Of the
same who entered the race before. Mr..
WIlbanks will doubtless run again and It
may be that Mr. Starkel the next strongest
candidate before, will try his chance again.
But these gentlemen must not rest on their
oars very much longer if they would make
successful fight.
Alta discussion before the Boston Evan
gelca Alliance Monday, upon the location
OF the Garden Of Eden the Rev. DR.. W. F.
Warren, President Of the Boston Universi-
ty, read an elaborate paper in support of
the theory that Adams abode was at the
North Pole. The speaker said that he had
first begun TO study the subject because he
had found that all religious writes were
completely in the dark in regard to il.
Whoever seeks location for the terrestrial
paradisr, with respect to light and darkness
and celestial scenery, must seek it at the
Arctic pole. Proofs were indicated to verify
the existence Of a great continent around
the North Pole before the deuse, with
fora and fauna consistent with its being
the cradle of the human race. Tie doctor
is logiCs. and strict reasoning might carry
him 10 that conclusion. We all agree on
goodness aud purity being the opp site Of
wicke1ness and evil, and Hudcs b-ing the
opposite Of Heaven; but whoever supposed
so cool place would be thought of for
our here alter Go on with the Arctic ex-
p!orations.
One Of the Republican ward bummers,
of the Fifth ward, negro named Louis
Adams, langui,hes IN the calaboose for
stealing, since yesterday evening. He and
his "pal,' another negro named Louis
Meadows, were suspected Of having stolen
corn from car on the Wabash tracks near
the gas house. Mr. Kjefer was first to sus-
pcct the theft, from the fact that Meadows
came in wagon to the car in which Adams
was sacGiug corn aud when Mr.. Kiefer
came suddenly upon them they looked con-
fused. Bet these suspicious were not
aroused till after the wagon had gone some
time when Mr.. Kiefer notified Chief
Myers who took up the trail made by the
team, followed it carefully along the MIS-
,issippi leyee, outside, along the New leyee,
over Grave Yard Ridge, out to negro town
in the upper extremity Of the city, and
there found the team standing in their
tracks in front of Meadow S shanty. Traces
Of corn were IN the wagon bed and when
the chief unceremonicusly entered the
front door of the house and walked through
to the back room, he found there four or
five sacks full Of sheled corn. Being ques
toned where he got the corn, Meadows
said that he had gotten it from Adams who
took it from the car mentioned above and
told him to haul it to his (AdamsO house
which was right next door to that Of
Me dows. Meadows and Adams are both
under arrest and will be examined to-day.
Il is firmly believed that Adams, who has
been long employed in the yards of the
Wabash, has made petty thIeying almost
an everyday practice.
Henry Clews & Cos business circular
for March gives the following summary of
business of the country: 1.-TWO months of
the year have passed, and the country can
not congratulate itself upon the improve
ment in business than many expected to
characterize the opening of the year. There
Failures are less numerous and less impor
tant in amount than they have been; and
there is a slowly improving feeling in re-
spect to credits. But the general state of
business is still far from being satisfactory,
In almost every branch of trade, the
