Exeter students Fight the Police.

An Exeter IN. H. special says: At
the close of the school year at Phil
lips Exeter Academy the boys have a
bonfire, dance, and parade, accompa-
MED with fre-crackers, cannon. and
tin-horns. At midnight Sunday about
one hundred and fifty students had
arrived on the spot, and others were
added to tho number later. Arrange
ments having been made for full
supply Of materials for bonfire, the
fire was started, and then came the
war-dance, blowing of horns, firing Of
cannons, &C., and stranger in Exeter
would have thought that the old historic
place was to be turned upside down.
The students were cOstumed in various
ways-Some as Indians, many with tall
hats, and most of them with blackencd
faces. Nearly all carried clubs. 1t
seems the police intended to allow them
to 60 so far and no further, and when
the boys formed in line to march out Of
the grounds they were ordered to stop by
about twenty of the officers. This
caused dispute, and clubs were re-
sorted to on both sides. Several Of the
students were bruised, and the police
men received their share of the pound
ing. Several of the boys were arrest
ed, but one or two were rescued by the
crowd before the police could get them
to the lookup. Many fremen were
sworn in as special policemen, and two
boys were locked up. They were fined
S. and $40 respc ctiyely.

The story Of au Old violin.

An Aurelias On. " special says:
In 1873 a friend Of Benjamin Doane,
of this town, died and bequeathed to
Doane violin which had been in tho
friends family for so many years that
no one knew from whence it originally
came. Although the age Of the instru-
ment was in question Doane attached
no special value to it. A few weeks
ago he was offered sl2 for the violin,
provided that he would have il put IN
good order. lie took the instrument
to W. ii. Perry, of Auburn, who Is .
musical expert and repairer Of instru-
ments. lie took the old violin apart,
and while examining the inside Of its
body he found unmistakable evidence
that it was an old Italian instrument,
with indications that 1t was genuine
Cremona. Perry consulted the leading
musical authorities, and the violin has
been pronounced a genuine specimen OF
the work of Paolo Maggini, who was Q
famous violin-maker in Cremona In
1918. The instrument is worth at least
81 900. Mr.. Doane now refuses $500
for il.

ing Her LisGc Fortuae.
The New York Commissioners OF
Emigration have involved themselves in
curious quandary. Among the pas
sepgers IN tbs polynesia, which was
quarantined recently because OF SMALL
pox on board, was child seat
out by relatives to join her pa
rents in this country. The little
one was placed in care Of a
family who promised to see her on her
journey to within a few miles Of the
town in Central New York where her
parents are now residing. The child's
passage was paid to New York, and to
insure money for her journeying be-
yond that city 500 francs, or sll9, was
sewed in her clothing. The unfortu-
nate child was one Of the early victims
Of the smallpox, md when the Poly
nesia reached quarantine she was
sent direct to Riverside Hospital.
Her clothes were burned and her
money was destroyed with them. She
has now recovered, the family who
took care OF her as far as New York
have gone West, and the address Of her
parents is lost. In this quandary the
Commissioners of Emigration have de-
cided that the child is pauper, and are
treating her as such. The child is being
cared for and an effort made to trace
her relatives in this country, but there
is no fund to repay the girl the money
she has lost.

Secretary Manning has requested the
resignation Of Horatio G. Burchard, Of
Illinois, as Director Of the Mint. 1t is
understood that Burchard will decline
to resign on the ground that there are
no charges against him, and further,
because his term Of Office will not ex-
pire until February, 1889. 1t is said
that friends Of Burchard question the
right of the Secretary Of the Treasury
to remove him, inasmuch as he was
appointed by the President under the
special statute which provides that the
incumbent shall not be removed except
on charges sustained by the Senate.
Burchard's friends assert that his adj
ministration Of affairs has been honest
and efficient and that the Senate will
not consent to his summary removal.
While it is understood that Secretary
Manning is dissatisfied with Burchard's
management of the Office Of Director, it
is not believed he will act arbitrarily in
the matter and remove Burchard, ex-
cept for reasons which would be ac-
copied by the Senate.
