WARD used Grants name for all it was
worth. if not in influencing the govern
ment with respect to contracts, in making
others believe that he had done so. It is
impossible to consider with patience the
impudence of.this man in thus debasing
to unworthy purposes a name which the
people honored and the possessor of
which was the very soul OF honor; but
what can be said of the men who accept
ed his villainy and apparently believed
that the influence in question could be dis
honestly used at Washington? The faith

Amelia OIsen's Murderer.

CHICAGO, April 1.-After Justice Ker-
stem had formally ad diourned court Tuesday
morning the police quietly brought Henry
Utz before him. Utz WAS charged with the
fearful crime of numbering Amelia Olsen,
who was found dead on the prairie a year
ago last January. He has been drinking
heavily for some time, and while intoxicated
has openly said that he killed the girl. He
has also charged William Spies, who was
shot by Of.ieer Tammillo some months ago,
with being party TO the crime William
Spies has been suspected by the police of
having something to do with the murder of
Amelia Olsen, but no direct proof has ever
been brought out While on his death bed
he is said to have been spoken to about it,
but denied all knowledge of the crime.
The prisoner when arraigned pleaded not
guilty and recanted his confession, denying
that he had anything to do with the murder.
He was granted postponement

A Clergyman Assaulted for Speaking
Against the Roman Catholic Church.
LINCOLN, Ills., April 1.-For three or
four days past ill-feeling has been prevail
ing here over the presence of Rev. j. g.
White, Of Stanford Mclean county, Ills,
whose mission is that Of lecturing against
the doctrine and clergy of the Roman Cath
olic church Among those who attended his
lecture Monday night were seventy
five coal-minars When about through
one of the miners advanced and
gave the word: "Put him out" Tho police
and several citizens interfered and sur
rounded the speaker, but they were swept
away like chaff. Chairs and canes were
used as weapons, and sore heads, black eyes
and bruised bodies were the result. The lee
turer was knocked down and badly in
jured The effort to gain possession Of the
lecturer was desperate one, and failed
only by the number of citizens who placed
themselves between the infuriated men and
their object White VOWS he will lecture
again. The men who so abruptly ended the
lecture declare he shall not

NEVER before has the appointment of
minor clerk provoked such q degree of
discussion as has that of Mr.. Higgins.
He is a medium sized man with brownish
hair just turning gray, and is forty five
years of age. He has resided nearly all
his life with his family in Baltimore and
has taken an active part in the recent
elections that have taken place there.
This Is looked upon as a crime; but he is
a thorough-going democrat of the prac =
tical school, and cntertains none of those
theoretal ideas Of politics which some
purists are trying to impose upon this
generation. The very element which now
objects to Mr.. Higgins, by the way
raised such a hue and cry when Mr..
Creecy was selected for this office that TO
please it the administration withdrew
his name; but it seems that nothing will
satisfy 1t. Mr. Higgins is an educated,
intelligent man and thoroughly, capable
OF administering the duties of his new
Office, which have been very much cir>
cumscribed by the civil service commits
sion and which are now but normal.

ONE CRISIS PASSED.
GENERAL GRANT REPORTED BETTER
AFTER A NIGHTS REST.
Some Alarm During Monday Night Caused
by Choking SpelI-A Reassuring
Bulletin-The Do octors' Lat
est Bulletin.

NEW YORK, April Am official bulle-
tin issued from Gen. Grants home at $3.50 a.
m, Tuesday, signed by DR.. Shrady, says:
"Gen. Grant has thus far passed very quiet
and comfortable night. sleeping by turns in
his chair and his bed for five
hours. At $3.50 he coughed consider
ably on account of irritation in the throat,
but experienced relief after the use of gar
gle His pulse is regular and has a fair
amount of force. His breathing is easy, and
he swallows without difficulty, having just
taken some liquid nourishment.
At 10 a. m. Gen. Grant was resting easily.
There is thought to be no immediate danger
of his dissolution.
At IL a. m. Dr. Shrady issued the follow
ing bulletin: Gen Grant feels much re-
freshed after a good nights rest His pulse
has improved somewhat in fullness and
force. H6 has taken his breakfast with
some relish. A slight amount of soreness in
the throat has been relieved by local ap-
plication." Shortly after this DR.. Douglas
called, and, it is said, had a consultation
about the advisabiiity of allowing the gen-
eral to go out for drive
Everything was quiet and subdued in
Sixty-sixth street early Tuesday morning.
A single gas jet was visible in the library
window of Gen. Grants residence The
shutters of the second story bay window
were closed tight This is where Gen. Grant
lies sick. It was learned early that the gen.
eral had some difficulty in getting to sleep.
His throat filed up again, and there was
alarm in tho household. But at daybreak
Gen Grant was asleep in his chair At 6
o'clock there were signs of life upstairs. Mrs.
Grant appeared for moment at the second
story window and gazed down into the street.
To a watcher her face appeared pale.
Passers-by glanced at the house. and some
inquired If the general was dead. Then the
somewhat reassuring bulletin of DR.. Shrady
appeared.
At 3 p. m. DR.. Douglas and DR.. Barker ar
rived at Gen Grants house and proceeded
to hold a consultation. Harrison, the col
ored servant, said that the general was up
and dressed, and appearel to he in better
health than at any time since Sunday.
THE LATEST p. m-Dr. Douglas has
issued the following bulletin; Gen. Grant
has improved in all respects since yesterday.
| His sleep is quiet and scarcely disturbed by
| the irritation of the throat. Local applica-
| tions have reduced the amount of secretions
| so they do not give the suffocating feeling
which was so disagreeabls on Sunday. He
takes his food with will and without in
| convenience"

to be a large business, and great

ONE Of the most antiquated institution

ONE OF the most antiguated institutions
in Washington is the supreme court of
the United States. The judges love to
keep the outward appearance of sever e
respectability and age, and to imagine
themselves sitting in st. Stephens or
some other foreign semi-feudal building
where beadles, maces and ponderous seals
attest how slow the legal profession is in
the march of civilization. For instance,
a steel pen is never seen in the supreme
court. 1t smacks of hlppancy, progress
the nineteenth century, and such intru-
sion into the solemn presence of the
highest court is not to be tolerated !.
Quills-goose quills-such as Shake~
speare wrote his plays with and the
feudal barons signed the Magma Charta,
these are the only writing instruments
allowed to enter into the mighty presence
of the awful majesty of the law.
The judges take snuff out oi
queer old silver snuff boxes. They smack
OF Erskine and blackstone and other de-
ceased legal lights. They would weal
wigs. If they were allowed. The only
concession in the matter of dress which
they have been able to wiring from the
disrespectful members of congress is to be
allowed to wear the silk gown, and this
they wear on all occasions. They keep
old men about the court, and these cult
vate a severe respectability, and from
continually handling musty tones acquire
a parchment like odor which follows them
