A Chance for Women.

The Christian Women's Exchange, of
New Orleans, are anxious to make a display
creditable to women, and invite the women
of all countries to cooperate with them.
There are several ladies in the city who
are represented to be experts in fancy
ueedlework and embroidery. Should any
Of them be DESTROYS of displaying their
skill at the Worlds Exposition, to be
held in New Orleans during the present
Winter, Rev. George Rafter will furnish
them all necessary information

There is considerable discussion through
the newspapers of the Territory over mail
routes and proposed mail routes.
A gentleman from the Fort Fetterman
region in conversation yesterday, said he
could not see how they could possibly be
as well served from Rawlins, which is
pushing its claim, as they are at present
from Rock Greek.
ut cannot be denied > said this gentle
man. that the Rock Greek route is the
best Summer route we could have, under
the existing circumstances. In Winter it
is entirely different however, The roads
become almost impossible, owing to the
heavy snow falls, and it takes US seven or
eight days to get our mail at Fetterman.
For Winter the best possible route is d.
rect from Cheyenne over the regular
stage road as far as Hunton's ranch,
where they branch off in the direction Of
Fetterm, By this route the mountains
could be skirted and the principal diff

have come over this road in all seasons,
and know there is never any difficulty
about it. About three hundred people
depend on Fetterman for their mail and
don't know how many more there are in
the Buffalo and Fort Mckinney region,
and if the route BY way of Hunton's wa.
selected for Winter and the Rock Greek
route maintained for Summer all Of then
would be saved an immense deal of in
convenience and the cause of public
morality very much advanced

The bridge at Fort Fetterman, which
was badly injured last Spring by the
floods, is nov in a rather delapidated con-
dition. Brushwood and trees have accu-
INFLATED in the river, and tive of the
stringers of the bridge are gone.
The importance Of the bridge being re-
paired is evident. All the travel going
north over the Platte must 20 across this
bridge, or go by the way of Fort Lara
mie. A few dollars judiciously expended
will ave much expense and trouble,

Mr.. Alex. Cox arrived in the city from
Chicago yesterday and leaves to-day for
his ranch at Fort Fetterman. He says
the shipments of cattle from the vicinity
OF Fetterman will be about as heavy as
last year and will not begin in good earn
est until about October /. The cattle
have been rather slow in fattening up
this season, owing probably to the lack of
sufficient rain in that region, but they are
now in very fine condition to make a most
excellent quality of beef.

Mr.. Richardson, Of the Electric Light
company, while coming from the electric
light house last evening noticed volumes
of sparks being firted about by the high
winds. Going to the spot where the
sparks seemed to be taken up he found
that some one had carelessly dumped a
quantity of live cinders by the side of a
frame dwelling. Securing some water he
extinguished the fire. Such carelessness
on a night like last night is inexcusable
and might very readily have resulted in a
serious fire.

One of the most interesting features of
Wyoming's exhibit at the coming New
Orleans Exposition. will be the collection
of Indian relics, owned by Mr.. Harry
Oelrichs, who has loaned them for this
purpose. This collection of relics and re-
mains is probably the most valuable and
interesting owned by any single individual
in the country, and will doubtless attract
as much attention as anything that could
be sent there.
Rev. DR.. Rafter received from New Or
leans a large and beautiful lot of litho-
graphs depicting the principal buildings
with their surroundings. The main build
ing of the New Orleans Exposition will be
the largest structure Of the kind ever
erected. 1t will cover over thirty-three
acres, or l,656,03o square feet, The
main building at the Centennial Exposi-
tod covered $40, 800 square feet, and the
Crystal Palace, at Sydenham, London,
l,400, 600 square feet
The Exposition promises to be a won
derful success, and Wyoming's exhibit
there will be neither the least valuable or
least interesting.

A LIST OF CRIMES.
An Old Man Attacks His GrandsOn's
Wife and Stabs the GrandsOn-A
Clue to Another Bloody
Mystery.

ST ALMANs, VT, May 81.
Grand Isle, Lake Champlain town. is ex-
cited over probable murder. A day or two
ago Jacob Kent, so years old, attacked his
grandson's wife. who lives in the same house,
and when her husband came to the rescue he
stabbed him in the abdomen with a pocket
knife. The wound is considered fatal.
The parties had been living together un-
pleasantly for some time past. The old man
was released on bail. The victim is said to
be dying.
The authorities here think they have a clue
to the Meyer-kraus mystery, involving the
supposed murder of Hartmann kraus, for
which Oscar Mayer is now awaiting the
action of the Grand Jury. A telegram in the
New York Herald, from Chattanooga. Tenn,
five weeks since, tells of finding among the
baggage at the depot, soap box containing
decomposed remains. which was addressed
to one Wallace, at Clinton, Tenn. Wallace
is the name of a saloon keeper at Plattsburg.
n, Y, where Meyer, the supposed murderer,
paw ned some articles belonging to kraus, the
missing men. The authorities here think
that finding the box may lead to the solution
of the mystery. and propose to look the mat
ter up. kraus' body, it was thought at first,
had been put through the ice into the lake.
but continued search failed to reveal its
whereabouts.

letter from Havana, dated Nav IL, SAYS ::
The results of the commercial and political
crisis through which the island is passing
without any hopes of a near Improvement,
are daily becoming more potent. From the
Province of Matanzas three families have
emigrated to Mexico, and the machinery of
| six abandoned plantations has been shipped
to Vera Cruz, to be used in Mexico. Planters
find themselves in a precarious situation, as
nobody is willing or able to advance money
for the raising of next years crops. Many
of the planters are obliged to abandon their
plantations. A great drought prevales over
a vast region of the country, and is doin 2
especial damage to the tobacco crop and to
the cattle raising interest.
The political situation remains unchanged.
Ii is stated that all the insurgents captured
are Immediately shot, without trial. The
press is now under more restraint than at
any previous time.

The Pennsylvania Bank Closes LIS
Doors on Account of Run.

PITTsBURG, Pa, May 2l.
The Pennsylvania Bank of this city closed
its doors at 80 this afternoon, and posted
the following notice: Owing to a continu-
Gus run for several days, we have decided
that it is wise for our depositors and all con-
cerned to suspend payment for the present.
There is great excitement large crowd
surrounds the bank. Officers have been placed
at the doors.
President Riddle of the Pennsylvania bank
which has been doing the largest business of
any bank here states: lowing to the un-
founded reports made current bv interested
and malicious persons there has been a run
for several days and our deposits have de-
creased betw cen $500, ,0GO and 500, 900 in five
days. We therefore deem it wise to take the
action which we have"
President Schwerts of the Third National
bank said he had seen the balance sheets of
the Pennsylvania bank and thought it would
be able to pay all of its debts and that it was
solvent. The other banks here are strong
enough to stand the crisis. They would
stand by each other as they did in New York.
At meeting of the bankers tonight it was
decided to pay off the liabilities of the Penn
sylvania bank. the latter being deemed sol
vent.
President Riddle of the Pennsylvania bank
said tonight, The directors this afternoon
began an investigation of the affairs of the
bank. The examination justifies the state
ment that the bank will pay, dollar for dol
lar, OH the deposits and stock. We have
received offers of assistance from many
sources"

A Statue of the Great Reformer I'm.
veiled at Washington.
WASHINGTON. Nav 20,

WASHINGTON, May 20.
The bronze statue of Martin Luther in
Thomas Circle, was unveiled here today.
The fund for its erection we're contributed
from all parts of the country and is the work
of the Lutheran church of the whole nation.
The statue is eleven and one-half feet high
and stands on pedestal of the same height
The total cost is $1,000. The statue stands
in front of the Lutheran church and repre-
sents the great reformer as he stood before
the Diet of Worms conducting his defence.
The unveiling ceremonies began at two
O'Clock and were presided o er by Associate
Justice Miller of tie United States supreme
court For the occasion a rallied platform with
seating room for several hundred had been
erected around the foot OF the pedestal for
the accommodation of members of the statue
association, clergymen and invited guests
and in the centre an awning decorated with
bunting afforded shelter from the sun to the
orators of the occasion.
The fine weather drew n large crowd of
people. Long lines of carriages occupied
the streets. The exercises began with music

POLITICAL.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Democratic State COnventiou-Delegate
Uninstracted but Will support
Tilden.

CONCORD, Nav 2l.
The democratic State convention was
called TO order this forenoon hy Charles F.
Stone of Laeonis, chairman of the State
committee. There was a large attendance of
delegates and spectators. The convention
organized by the choice of Hon. Hosea W.
Parker of Claremont for president.
After the appointment of committees, Mr..
Parker made an address in which he de-
nounced the protection policy of the repub-
lican party and devoted much of his speech
to exposing its tallacies. A tariff for revenue
only was demanded and this was TO be the
issue in the coming campaign.
The resolutions declare against all laws
tending towards Capitalization of power,
wealth or political influence, declare that
taxation is an incident not an object of the
government, and should only be levied to
provide means for the economical maintain
ance of the government and the timely dis
charge of its obligations, bearing lightly on
articles in common use, and demand the re-
duction of the war tariff in accordance with
those principles. They commend the action
of the democratic majority in the national
House in the recent earnest efforts for tariff
reform and regret the defeat of these efforts.
and insist that there shall be no cessation of
efforts until the revenue system shall be re-
established on just md honest basis. The
resolutions further call for thorough reform
in financial administrative affairs, arraign
the republican party as false to the interests
of the people and again assert their utter con-
demnation of the great crime of 1876.
The resolutions were adopted.
Frank Jones of Portsmouth, Henry O.
Kent of Lancaster. Frank A. McKeen OF
Nashua and Alva w. Sulloway of Franklin
were then chosen delegates at large. Alter
mates were elected. No instructions were
given the delegates but the unanimous senti
ment of the convention was in favor of 1.-THE
old ticket" They will undoubtedly support
it at the national convention.
The convention then adjourned.
