THE New Castle County Republican
Executive Committee has had its meet
ing, and it was harmonious throughout,
disappointing the wishes and expecta-
tons of the Democratic papers. 1t met
just like every other county committee
met, performed its duty, declared +. c.
Sidham the nominee for Sheriff, and
Charles f. Sparks the nominee for
Coroner, and was then addressed by
Anthony Higgins, Esq, i'll ringing
Republican speech, after which the com
mittee adjourned as harmoniously as it
met, and the members went home to
prepare defeat for the Democrats at
the election in November.

The great fire at Jersey City last
night caused by leaky gas main, and
by which the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company has lost million of dollars,
isanother strong argument in favor Of a
rigid Inspection Of gas mains and all
gas pipes placed in, under and through
our buildings. A small leak of gas
may appear like very trifiing matter,
but IL carries death and destruction
with It. y gas filter and plumber
should be an expert workman, and one
that feels the great responsibility that
fe.ts upon him.

a stand, and the colored voters support.

were defeated. THIS is the first Demo

such elections Cleveland expects to b,

Murder in New Madrid County.

NEW MADRID, Feb. 10.
county last month, which has just come to
light-indeed, the whole story is not yet de-
veloped. The dead body of Vic Marquis, a
farmer living at Big Ridge, this county,
was found on the 4th instant in Otter
slough with his head almost in fragments.
The discovery was made by John Stitt and
his father while out running their traps,
who Immediately notified Coroner Mills,
and an inquest was held. At the examna-
tion, Vic's wife was the only witness sworn
and examined, and stated that one julie
Singrey confessed to her that he killed her
ever divulged the fact she should meet the
same fate. The body lay in the slough dur
ing the severe weather from the 18th day of
January (having been murdered on the
evening Of that day. until the 4th of Febru-
ary. Singrey, it is said, deliberately assas-
sinated Vic, left him lying on the spot and
went to the house and told his (Fic's) wife
what he had done. He and Vic started to
this city and when about mile and a half
distant from the house on their journey
Singrey thought it time for him to execute
his horrible design, and promptly present
ed his gun and shot Vic in the back part of
his head with No. s buckshot, tearing the
head almost to atoms. Singrey has been
arrested and is now in Jail, awaiting his
trial before the Circuit Court which COM
mences next month.

To see a religious meeting break out into
thunderous applause is somewhat Of rarity in
these decorous days, but this occurred at themass-
meeting of young men at the Y. NJ. G. A. yester-
day afternoon. There were present about 500
men, almost all between the ages of sixteen and
thirty five years. no ladies or children being ad-
mitted. A male choir led the singing. On the
platform, near it, We're Rev. Mr.. Austin, of
New York, Patterson of Chicago, Brandt of St
Louis Clagett of Alabama, 2. NJ. Williams of
Carondelet, and other ministers and workers.
After prayer and reading the 3lst chapter of
Job, the evangelist, DIR. Munhall, began his
address. 1t was powerful delineation of the
awful consequences of certain vices, and partc-
ularly of dishonesty and Righteousness. He
dealt with the subject from the standpoint of
the psychologist. the business man, the moralist
and the Christian. His assaults upon evil were
at times so vigorous that carried away by sym
pathy and feeling, the audience broke out into
hearty applause. 1t was an address calculated
to be OF infinite value to young men, dealing
faithfully as it did with subjects upon which
they are too often ignorant or thoughtless.
