The Pixies Peak railroad, which is
to be in operation next year, will prob
ably be the most remarkable piece of
track In the world. 1t is already oper-
ated to point 1900 feet above the
sea level. The entire thirty miles OF
its length will be a succession Of COM
plicated curves and grades, with no
piece OF straight track longer than
three hundred feet. The maximum
grade will be SIC feet to the mile, and
the average grade 270 feet. Its numer-
GUS curves will be from 500 to 1000
feet long, in which the radius will
change every chain.

my wife suffered from Rheumatism
for months. She tried a number of
medicines but received little or no benefit.
She commenced taking ATHLoPHoRos
three days ago, and l can safely say she
has already received more benefit from
it than from all the medicines she had
taken before" J. Stephens, Hazel
Green, Grant Co, Wis. The universal
verdict as to ATRLoPHoRos is that it
cures where other remedies fail What
an amount of money might be saved if
sufferers would go directly for this recog-
nized specific.

Walla Walla, Washington Ter, a
city of 1000 inhabitants is a model
place. Its mayor. Gen. Tannatt, who

age from being out alone after dark.
A child sent for a physician must be
given permit to do so. No tobacco
mist can sell tobacco or cigarettes to

PORT RICHMOND, March PA number of

safe refuge in this section, have formed an
oath bond brotherhood, and under the guidance
of black listed miner, formerly employed
in the Monongahela valley, will visit the dis
turbed sections of the coal fields of western
Pennsylvania to perpetrate series of Mollie
Mcguire outrages. Among the bandits are
humber OF desperate men, who are believed
to be fatigue murderers and conspirators,
and they will be vigilantly Swallowed by mem
bers OF the detective corps, employed by the
coal and railroad companies. The chief of
the coal and iron police in Clearfeld, West
moreland and Fayette counties have been
privately appraised of the intended visit, and
a sharp watch will be kept upon the maraud-
ers, as soon as they make their advent il
those regions.

but no reduction in wages

LATE MINNEAPOLIS NEWS.

Chas. Allmen was arrested last night in a
Plymouth avenue saloon, on charge of en-
bezzling S14.40 from Mr.. Sterling, the gro
Gerry man in the city market
Peter Brisbois, 1,314 Marshall street, re-
ported that he had been robbed by foot pads
on Bridge square of 81 and nickel plated
watch valued at SIS. Two officers accompa-
MED him in search of the desperadoes, but
they were not found, and their victim wend-
ed his way home in a state of semi-intoxica-
| ton.
Afire broke out at o'clock this morn. in the
two story building owned by Mother Griffin,
on the corner of Fourteeth avenue and Fifth
street South. 1t was occupied by Tom Hor-
ton as saloon and it was pretty nearly total
loss. 1t is the second time Horton has been
burned out within the year. The loss on the
building is $1,000 and Horizons loss was
about 5000. Both parties were insured.
Last night Hugh Garrity's saloon, at $50
Spring street, was the scene of a tremendous
row, during which Pete Mccoy broke into
fragments every window in the house; for
which unlawful act he was arrested by Off
GERS Boswell and Blake, and placed in du-
rance to wait trial this morning for his dis
orderly conduct. During the disturbance
Clarity fired at Mccoy with revolver, and
the latter had quite narrow escape from be-
coming fit subject for coroner's inquest.
A gay Lothario of sixty winters, named
Andrew Larson, of Carver county, arrived
in the city yesterday and visited places Of
oderiferous repute in quest of fun. In Decks
saloon on Second avenue. north he got into
the coils of seductive sirens who robbed him
of S25, all the money he had. Last evening
| he reported the affair to the authorities and
shed copious tears of anguish, but not of re-
pentance, for he was observed an hour after
wards in another place of questionable re-
pute, on the same street, kept by one Moran.
| No arrests have yet been made.
The Grand was filed to OVERLOOKING last
night by fashionable audience, on the &C.
casion Of the last concert of the season by the

itself under the lead of David Blalzely with
credit. The artists, Miss Emma Howe,
soprano, and Miss Theresa Ca-r1no,
pianist were accorded the most

the prettiest and most artistic numbers Of
the evening was the soprano solo by Miss
Howe, with the flute obligatoa by Sig Free

| to the success of the concert. Prof DanZ,
pere, who retires from the leadership of the
orchestra with the concert was presented
with fine gold headed cane and Prof. DAM

An Interesting Church Trial.

LAWRENCE, Mass, March 24.-The first of
the Augustinian society suits was called,
the case of Ellen Lahey against the society
and the archbishop of the diocese, to recover
81, 500 for money loaned to defendant The
court room was crowded with depositors and
clergymen. Archbishop Williams testified
he was familiar with the affairs of the Imma-
culate Conception church, under the charge
of the Augustinian society. He knew that
deposits were received by all the pastors of
the churches. Since he became bishop, he
had not only discountenanced the practice,
but had issued written protests against it,.
He had raised, by mortgage on the church
property, 100000, to pay depositors. The
decree which governed the holding of titles
to church property was, that it be held by the
bishop who had full administration of the same,
in order that all matters pertaining thereto
should conform to the ecclesiastical law. A
provision was also made that the priests
keep their own and the church finances
separate, and not take money on deposit
without the written permission of the bishop
under whose control they were in temporal
and spiritual matters. When witness learned
of the condition of the funds of the Angus
tinian society he could have told them to re-
ceive no more deposits but did not do so, an
ticipating the difficulties could be surmounted
without resorting to insolvency. The wit
ness considered the church property good Sc
curity for the deposits. The revenue of the
churches and the deposits were made com
mon fund, but the accounts were kept separ
ate. The church revenue always exceeded
the ordinary expenditures. The court here
adjourned.

Pa,,ue or Rn,dnyL.

Neither Payne nor Randall, it is alleged,
will run on any platform that does not con-
tain tariff plank favorable to incidental pro-
lection. A Washington telegram to the
Philadelphia Press says Representative
Randall returned to this city Monday after a
visit of several days to New York and con-
sultation with Samuel J. Tilden and other
prominent eastern politicians. Mr.. Randall
confirms the accuracy of the interview with
Mr.. Tilden, in which he explicitly avowed
his determination not to be the Democratic
candidate. 1t is understood that the primary
object of the ex-speaker's visit to New York
was to impress upon Mr.. Tilden the necessity
of allowing his name to be used in the con-
vention, and that he fatty refused. OF all
the men named, prominent party leaders
say Mr.. Tilden is the one who could lead a
united party against the Republicans with
the most prospect of success. Two other
names are suggested-Henry B. Payne, of
Ohio, and Samuel j. Randall, of Pennsyl-
vania. Neither of these gentlemen would
run upon any platform that did not contain
tariff plank favorable to incidental protect
ion. Mr.. Payne and Mr.. Randall both stand
upon the Ohio platform, and if the Demo-
cratic convention should not adopt it or its
equivalent as the sentiment of the party at
large, neither Payne or Randell would enter
| the lists"

and Tom Ochiltree and life insurance agents,
this new terror has been spared u.s."
Our alarmed contemporaries suggests, as a
remedy, or at least, as counteractive,
that Mr.. Arthur should send out a hundred
thousand lightning rod agents, that Mr.. Ed
munds should send out an equal number of
agents to meet the enemy with a sewing
machine attachment and it is sure John
Sherman will know enough in this tremen-
dous crisis, start in on the new subscrip-
ton plan with million or two OF barbed
iron fence drummersl This is new form,
but an unequalled one of ''Cesarism."
1t is time for the country to arouse to the
impending danger. Great fear is expressed
for the Chicago, ILL.,, convention if these
book agents should make a descent in force
upon it. By needing the timely warning the
republic may be saved from absolute bank
ruptcy, and even the Illinois convention at
Chicago may succeed in putting a presiden-
tial candidate in the field, and his name may
not be James G. Blaine.

Woman's Temacity of Life.
Modern Are.1

1t appears from the gathered statistics Of
the world that women have greater tenacity
of life than men. Nature worships the fe-
male in all its varieties. Among insects the
male perishes at very early period. In
plants the semnate blossoms die earliest,
and are produced in the weaker limbs. Fee
male quadrupeds have more endurance than
males. In the human race, despite the in
tellectual and physical strength of the man,
the woman endures longest, and will bear
pain to which the strong man succumbs. Zy-
motto diseases are more fatal to males, and
more male children die than females. De-
verga asserts that the proportion dying sud-
denly is about 100 women to 7S0 men. -
$50 men in the United States, in 1870 COM
mitted suicide to 2S5 women. Intemper-
ance, apoplexy, govt, hydrocephalus, affec-
tions of the heart or liver, scrOfula, paraly-
sis, are far more fatal to males than females.
Pulmonary consumption, ON the other hand,
is more deadly to the latter Females in the
city are more prone to consumption than in
the country. All old countries not disturbed
by emigration have majority of females in
the population. In royal families the statis-
tics show more daughters than sons. The
Hebrew woman is exceptionally short-lved.
The marriage state is favorable to prolonga-
ton of life among women. DR.. Hough re-
marks that there are from 2 TO 6 per cent.
excess of females in the living populations.
From which statistics we conclude that all
women who can possibly obtain one of these
rapidly departing men ought to marry, and
that, as men are likely to become so very
scarce, they cannot be sufficiently priced by
the other sex.
