DG- Mr.. Asa Needham, of the Po-
tomac Steamboat Company, tells the
following good story. Jim McCutch-
in, who put up that job on Billy Lee
and caused him to sink the ship Of
Sion, was great wag and wit in bis
day. No man in South Baltimore
was better known than he. Upon
every occasion where a humorous
song was required to fit some local
event Jim could always be relied on
to supply it, He was a painter Of
vessels, and ornamented their cut
waters aud sterns with pictures to
suit the taste Of bis patrons. On one
occasion captain from down the bay
got to dickering with McCutchin to
paint hon on the cntwater of his
schooner. Jim wanted $40 for the
job, but the captain declined 10 pay
more than S.. Jim finally told the
captain that he could paint the lion
for IS, but as post and chain would
be necessary to hold the animal he
must have $40 for the extra work.
The captain declined and said he
would risk the lion getting away. Jim
painted a So lion on the cutwater in
water colors. The next time the cap
tain came into port he went for Jim
at lively rate. The lion had disap-
peared. Jim replied that he knew
the tarnal thing would run away If
he was not chained, and told his GUS
toner so before be painted it. There
upon the captain paid him $40 for a
new lion. post and chain and secured
q good JOB. p-Baltimore Times.

GoIdin Oregon.

OMAHA, Neb., June 25.-The new
gold discovery on Snake River, Ore
gon. is believed to be genuine and
bona fde. kilograms follow each
other fast into the Union Pacific
headquarters, augmenting the won
der and importance OF the new find
Doubts are many and expressions
free that it Is another C9ur d. Aiene
boom. A railway official said TO day,
however, that such fictitious excite
ments are never raised in midsum-
mer. when they can be exploded so
soon. The new fields are in Union
county, Oregon, among the Eagle
Greek Mountains, in the peninsula
formed by the junction of the Pow
der and Snake Rivers. The nearest
point on the railway is Durkee, or
Baker City, about thirty miles dis
tant. A wagon road runs within
eight miles of the scene. A new
camp, known as Pine Valley, of 200
men, has been formed, and parties
are pouring in at the rate of fifty a
day. The mining consists of placer
and quartz Below all the quartz
ledges the placer mining is panning
from 10 to 25 cents. What sorted
rock one man could pound out in a
mortar in one day has yielded as
high as $500 Old prospectors pro-
nounce it a great discovery.

BALTIMORE, June 25.-William r.
Thompson, farmer living two miles
from North Branch creek. in Allie
gheny county, was working in a
corn-feld yesterday, when he motto

of bees around the stump OF an Old
oak tree standing in fence corner.
He approached and rashly attempt
ed 10 investigate them by striking
the stump with his hoe. In an IN
stant a whole nest OF wasps. prob
ably 800 or 600 strong, attacked him.
They settled all over bis head, and
the man was soon rushing frantic
ally TO the house, screaming for
help. The wasps chung to him with
the most remarkable persistency,
and when he reached his home his
wife was compelled to beat them of
with a broom. There was scarcely
"a piece Of skin as big as penny on

A Maryland Isawhide at Work Again

BALTIMORE, June 24.-The second
case of whipping for wife-beating
took place to-day. The prisoner,
Frank Myers, a young man of slen-
der build, was led out pale and trem-
bling, dressed merely in his under
shirt and trousers. He was hurried
ly stripped and lashed to the post
while the Sheriff prepared himself
for work. Deputy Thurlow counted
and in rapid succession the blows
fell, the whole twenty hardly occu-
pying the same number of seconds.
The first lash was the most severe,
the supple rawhide twisted itself en-
tirely around the victims body. 1t
made long and deep cash from
which blood flowed freely. During
the punishment the prisoner threw
himself into all sorts of contortions.
The punishment was terrible, but be
bore it bravely.
The prisoners in the Jail, who
knew of Myers's crime, were kept
out of sight of the whipping post,
but they could hear Deputy Sheriff
Thurlow's voice as he counted the
lashes, and as soon as twenty was
called out they all set up a loud hur.
rah. Such is the dread of this pun
ishment that several persons against
whom warrants have been issued for
beating barricaded themselves
| in their homes and gave the police
the greatest possible trouble to cap
ture them.

Coun,erfciter, AZ work.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 25.-Of-
ficers of the United States Secret
Service, together with a squad OF po-
lice officers under Lieutenant War
mock, of the First Police District,
raided the dwelling Of Thomas Nc
Nulty, No. 1914 Garrett street this
afternoon and found him, together
with young woman named Mary
Brasly, engaged in the manufacture
of counterfeit coin. The man was
in his underclothes and was mould
ing half dollars when the officers
broke into the room. A complete
outfit, consisting of furnaces, melt
ing pots, moulds. ladies, plating
batteries and other counterielting
paraphernalia. was captured, togeth-
er with over $500 in spurious half
and quarter dollars of a very danger
nus description. McNulty has been
under surveillance for some weeks,
being an old offender and one of the
most skillful coiners In the country.
The woman Brasly is known to the
police as an expert shower OF the
queer" and is also an adept at man
ufacturing the crooked coins. The
former was arrested in this city in
February, 1888, and 100 bad halt
dollars found or his person, for
which he served eighteen months In
the Eastern Penitentiary.

WILKEsBARRE, June 23.-David
Williams, miner, has been partial
ly Insane for some time past,
brought on by the excitement OF
the Salvation Army meetings. This
morniug he attempted to kill his
little erandchild, Minnie Jones. He
said the Lord told him in the night
that if he wanted to save sinners he
would have to make a sacrifice. An
innocent babe would best answer
the purpose. He accordingly went
to the house of his daughter and re-
quested TO see little Minnie. He
took her to the garret OF his own
house and bound her and was about
to kill her when her screams brought
help. The maniac broke away.
Reaching his daughters house he
made break for her with the knife
and succeeded in inflicting a severe
cash in the arm. The injured wo-
inan made her escape into a room
and locked the door. The maniac
then stabbed a neighbor's boy who
was sitting on the front step. The
neighborhood was now greatly excl
ted and four stalwart policem en- ar
rived on the scene succeeded in cap
turing the lunatc after much ditii-
Guilty. He is now in Jail.

The damage was particularly
heavy among the tenement houses
along Jones Falls. The water rose
to the second stories, and there was
considerable anxiety felt for the peo'
pie living in the houses, but fortu-
nately no lives were lost. One en-
tire family narrowly escaped drown

be turned loose to save them. There

ERIE, June pa horrible muir

West Mill creek, and Hugh brown,
an old man nearly eighty, has been
arrested for the crime. Brown, who
is a very muscular old man, invited
Charles Dunn, a Grand Army vet

formed man, about 40 years old, ac-
cepted, but wus this morning found
outside the shanty with his head
severed from his body, his heart cut
in twain and trunk gashed and
hacked with an axe belonging to
Brown. Brown says be came home
after midnight and thought Dunn
was sleeping on the floor and when
he awoke this morning he saw the
pools Of blood and found the body
as described. He declares the crime
was committed before he came. 1t

the body was dragged outside and

why Holiinger was shot.

CHAuprpsBURG, Pa, June % On
the night of May 81 John Hollinger,
a young man belonging to wealthy
family living near Waynesboro,
Franklin county, was shot dead dur
ing a fight with three men, who had
intruded in his yard. George and
David Freeman. living near the Hol-
linger place, and Henry Ressler, a
suitor for the hand of Alice, sister OF
the Freeman boys, were subsequent
ly arrested on suspicion OF having
entered Hollinger's yard to steal
chickens in the night, thus leading
to the fatal affray.
1t has just been discovered, how
ever. that the three men had gone 10
the place to kill Hollinger. atthe in
stigation of Alice Freeman, who al
ter having become infatuated with
Hollinger and having been wronged
by him was stung to hatred 10y his
rejecting her and marrying another
lady. She told her brothers and
Ressler that Hoilinger had betrayed
her and this melted them TO the
murder. Two attempts have been
made by citizens TO lynch the pris-
oners. Able counsel have been en-
gagged on both sides for the trial
which takes place In August.
