SWhoa. Burchard I"

A curious story comes from Washington
that Blaine and Logan met for the first time
since the election on the street in the federal
capital, and that when about passing
Logan cleared his throat and shouted,
"How are you, Burchard Whereupon
the story goes. Blaine stopped looked
embarrassed, smiled and cordially shook
his late associate in misery by the hand.
Soon after the election comical actor
in New York, who played his part with a
donkey. convulsed his audience by calling
to the beast "Whoa, Burchard - But the
luckless divine's son was justly indignant
at the use of his fathers name and i'll Il

A Proper Precedent.

Governor Pattison has conformed with
the policy of the law and the comfy of
states in requesting the Judge of Clear
field county to release Patrick W. Norton,
4 citizen of New York state, who was got
into the custody of Pennsylvania officers
by kidnapping. 1t seems that Norton was
wanted in this state for causes for which
extradition proceedings would not lie. He
was decoyed from Canada into New York
state by forged telegram; and when he
had got within its jurisdiction was arrested
on a local warrant but, instead of being
taken before local court, was, as the
governor states it, carried forcibly and
against his will into this commonwealth,
where another warrant, sued out in this
commonwealth, was served upon him, -
under which he was detail ned in the county
of Cleariield.
BY such irregular and violent proceed
ings rs this, it may have happened that
the cause of justice would have been sub
served but it is the policy of the state
not only that the ends of justice be
reached but that they may he secured
by orderly methods. The arrest OF persons
without due warrant of law, is a violation
Of one of the most essential personal rights,
aud to encourage its infraction might lead
TO consequences the most serious to society.
Accordingly when the facts in this case
were laid before Governor Cleveland and
were by him promptly communicated to the
governor of Pennsylvania, the executive of
this staie--who himself had no power to
order the release of the prisoner-notified
the Sieariield court that the governor of
New York was before his court, asking for
the release of Il citizen unlawfully de-
tanned there and he was released.
II the case is, as reported, the first of its
kind TO occur in this country, it is well it
was disposed Of in such way as To estab-
lisl, the precedent that il makes.

Tuesday evening, as the east-bound passen :

was nearing a bridge crossing the Pecos
River, near San AntOnia, Texas a
number of torpcdOes exploded on the
track, causing the engineer to stop the

with drawn revolvers, compelled the con-
ductor to stop at Langtry, the next small
station. At Langtry twenty more cow
boys boarded and took possession of the
train. They were all more or less under the
influence of liquor, and amused themselves
by shooting out all the window lights and
lamps, terrOrizing the passengers generally.
As the train passed small stations cowboys
would show their heads out of the broken
windows, and shoot and yell. A passing
freight train was saluted in similar man.

the roofs of the cars riddled They robbed
the train boy of his stock of peanuts and

shot. Judge Falon, United States District
Attorney Evans, and Sheriff White were
among the passengers, but thought best not
to make their identity known. The gang left
the train at Uvalde.

HillSdalc, "A little village in Bergen county,
New jersey, on the line of the New York

man named Gurnee kept a country store at
one of the crossroads. His wife and family
live in modest little cottage across the road

Tuesday evening he went into Gurnees

country youths gathered there, and fingered
after all the rest had gone. When Gurnee
was ready 10 close for the night he called
Cisco to his aid, and the colOred man assisted
him TO roll in the barrels and lift the boxes
from the stoOp TO positions inside the door.
Then he sat by the stove while Gurnee drew
out his money drawer and proceeded TO
count up the days receipts preparatory 10
placing them in the safe. While he was thus
engaged with his back turned Cisco crept
stealthily up behind him and dealt him a ter
rlblc blow on top of the head with slung-
shot Gurnee fell to the floor, and the col

money that lay ON the desk.
