ifOrnia.

During a riot on the night Of February
9TH, at Eureka, California, between Chi
nese, a stray bullet killed David Kendall,
member ofthe City Council, and another
severely wounded a boy. The news Gre
ated such excitement in that city that a
mass meeting was called, and over 1000
citizens responded. Resolutions of indig-
nation at the lawless acts of the Chinese
were adopted, and a committee appointed
to notify the Chinese that they must all
leave the city. Groups Of citizens visited
each house; compelled them to pack up
their effects, and then marched them to a
large warehouse, where they were impris-
oned, awaiting the departure of steamer
for San Francisco: A second mass meet
ing, attended by 1000 persons, was held
the next day, and standing committee ap.
pointed, empowered to prevent any Chi
nese from locating in that city in the fu-
ture.

A RINK RUPTURE.
Seductive Tendencies of Adjusting the
Feminine Skate.

Society at Youngstown, Ohio, is again in
flutter over the reported elopement of
Mrs. Norris L. Baldwin and William Rich
ards. Mrs. Baldwin is only eighteen years
DID, Richards has been floor manager of
the roller skating rink, and Mrs. Baldwin
has been constant attendant. The atten-
ton paid her by Richards caused talk, and
her husband ordered her not to attend the
rink any more, but she refused to obey.
On Tuesday Richards disappeared, and on
Thursday night Mrs. Richards packed her
trunk in her husbands absence and went
to Akron. She has a sister there, and it is
supposed that Richards is with her. Bald
win says he will shoot Richards on sight
Baldwin was once wealthy. Other elope-
nents are reported from rinks throughout

A WICKED WIFE.
She Throws Her Husband From a Second
Story Window.

On the night of The 9TH a policeman pass
ing along Terrace Row, Hoboken, N. J.,
saw man thrown from the second story
window of large house, and found John
F. Benrens, a wealthy wholesale druggist,
living insensible and bleeding. He endeav-
ored to enter the house, tut,wa refused
admission. He broke open the door, and
was attacked by Mrs. Betrens, who for
hade the policeman hsr husband'
in. The woman appeared frenzied with
rage and drink. Assistance was procured,
and Behrens was carried in Mrs. Behrens
endeavoring to attack him. Being foiled
she swallowed dose of ammonia A
ply sician was called, and administered an
emetic. When Behrens regained con-
sciousness he declared that he fell out OF
the window. 1t appears to be case of
periodical mania, Mrs. Behrens having
several times attempted her own life Mr.
Behrens is iii a critical condition, and the
doctors do not venture to express an opin-
ion as to his recovery. Mrs. Behrens was
not arrested, but kept under the surveil-
lance Of the police, who, on account of the
high station Of the family, tried to keep the
unfortunate affair quiet

Between so and IS members of the In.

in Jefferson Hall, at Allegheny City, Pa,
on the night of the 10th inst, to discuss
socialism and anarchism. Joseph Frick
and John Staubb made lengthy addresses.
The former spoke in German, and loudly
denounced the United States Senate for
passing the dynamite resolutions. He said
the Senators were all millionaircs, and that
they were playing the part of police for
England. AS the poor man could not get
his rights by law and order he advocated
murder and revolution. Stuabb spoke in

England's Recuperative Powers.

Earl Roseberry, in an address to the
Liberals at EPSON, on the 9th, said the
Khartoum catastrophe had been sent to
test the spirit and patriotism Of the coun-
try. About one hundred years ago Eng
land suffered humiliation as great as any
in history. She had just signed treaty
giving over her fair province, now the
United States Of America, to independence,
and was compelled to surrender to sue
cessful rebellion Of her own subjects. She
had E3oJooo,ooo floating debt and was
unable to send an army into the field. Brit
ish statesmen scrupled not to say that the
sun Of England had set, never to rise again.
Yet within nine years England commenc.
ed war with France, which proved the
most gigantic and successful she had ever
undertaken, and which left her the leading
power Of the world. 1t behooved English
men 70 present An undivided front to the
enemy.

Heavy Damages Claimed.

Thomas Riley, Of the firm of Delone g.
Co., liquor dealers of Omaha, has COM
menced suit against the Union Pacific Rail
road Company for 100000 damages. The
complaint alleges, in substance, that the
plaintiff was riding on freight train be-
tween Green River and Evanston. Wvo..
and rendered to the conductor thousand
mile ticket. The conductor refused to re-
ceive it without permit accompanying it,
and demanded the fare. Mr.. Riley re-
fused to pay it, whereupon the conductor
stopped the train between stations, and the
complaint alleges, with the aid of the
brakeman, forcibly put the plaintiff off.
The plaintiff claims to have received in
juries from the force used by the conductor
and brakeman. Mr.. Riley states that he
has travelled many times over the Union
Pacific on freight trains, and has never
been obliged to obtain permit. On the
other hand, it is claimed by the railroad
men that his familiarity with the rules of
the road made it especially just that he
should abide BY the rules when the con-
1uctor demanded it. The case will un-
ioubtedly receive the general attention Of
men. Mr.. Riley i at the pres.

General GOrdOn's Death.

Colonels Wilson and Wolseley, of the
expedition to khartoum, arrived at Korti
on February 10th. They made the jour-
ney from Gubat in four days, bringing the
news of General Gordon's death. One Of
the pashas among General Gordon's forces
marched the garrison to the side Of the
town nearest Omduran, saying the rebel
attack was expected at that point. In the
meantime another traitorous pasha opened
the gates at the other end, and allowed the
Mahdi's troops to enter, and they easily
captured the town. General Gordon was
stabbed while leaving the Government
House.

SLOW WORK.
The Dragging A;cn" OF t:,e River and
HarEor Bill IN ;',e House.

The River and il4rj.r bill is dragging
along slowly in Congress. The bill is fifty
pages in length, and as yet the House has
considered in Committee of the Whole
only six pages. At every stage it has met
serious opposition, and the delays have
been so great that there has been some talk
of on extra session. Randall, as Chairman
of the Appropriations Committee, has no
tilted Willis, Chairman of the River and
Harbor Committee, who has the bill in
charge, that the Appropriations Committee
was Of the opinion that it should have the
right of way to pass the regular appropria-
ton bills. The postotfice, legislative and
executive, and sundry civil appropriation
bills will be ready for presentation to the
House next week, and their consideration
will occupy at least six days. The Demo
cratic leaders are altogether opposed to an
extra session, and there is no reason why
If the House will wave the river and
harbor bill-all the regular appropriations
can not be passed by the 25th ofthe month.
The river and harbor bill has now been
under consideration for a week, and two
weeks more would be required to pass it if
progress is not made at better rate than
has thus far attended the measure, If, on
a straight vote between those who are
anxions to pass Immediately all appropria-
ton bills and the friends of the river and
harbor bill, the former should be beaten,
there would be some prospect Of an extra
session, but the present condition Of busi-
ness does not by any means warrant the
idea that an extra session will be necessary.

negro four years ago, and went to Balti-
more. It has been ascertained that Miss
Cooke was weak minded from infancy.
The negro (Riley) was raised in the Cooke
family, and managed to control the girl in
her actions. He soon tired Of Ter, and
year ago married colored girl, who turn

MONTANA INDIANS.
Proposed Consolidation of the Red Skins
Reservation.

There is a good chance for some action
this session of Congress on the consolida-
tion Of the Montana Indian reservation, so
as to open considerable territory to settle
ment. Senator Dawes has reported from
the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs
bill fixing the boundaries in Northern Mon
tana.
The domain on which it is proposed to
confne the Assinaboine and Gros Ventre
tribes is included in the boundary line be-
ginning at the northeast corner of the
Fort Assinaboine military reservation, run
ming south TO the mountains, thence along
the range coast to the 1oSth meridian, and
then north to the British boundary, and
west to the beginning-all that portion of
the territory described in the act of April
IS, 1876, which lies west of line drawn
due south from the national boundary, at
the western extremity Of the Sweet Grass
Hills to the Marias river, as assigned to
the Piegan, Blood ard Blackfeet Indians,
belonging to the Blackfeet Agency. This
land is to be held under executive order
for the occupancy and benefit of the Ind-
ans, or to be patented to them in severalty,
if Congress shall SC direct hereafter. In
order that these Indians may be enabled to
give up the chase and to assist them in be-
and to become selfsupporting, the sum of
$4,000 a year is to be given the Indians
of the Blackfeet Agency, $4,000 year is
to be given to the Fort Belknap Agency
for the term Of fifteen years from the pas
sage of this act, and $4,000 to the Fort
Peck Indians-this money to be expended
by direction of the Secretary of the lnte-
rlor in the purchase Of agricultural imple.
'nents, seed, necessities or in the purchase
Of cattle Or sheep, and to keep them on the
way to civilization and self-support. The
Government agrees to issue rations to the
Indians, as may be necessary, in addition
to what they produce, to their comfortable
subsistence for three years. The land ~
ing outside the limits of their reservation
to be placed in the public domain, except
such as may be necessary for the military
reservation of Fort Assinaboine.
The measure is we'll received on all sides
and it is thought it will pass both houses if
any similar bill can this session. The Sec
retary Of the Interior has recommended to
Congress that about 100000 acres of the
land included in the Blackfeet, Fort Peck
and Fort Belknap Indian agencies, Mon
tana, be restored to the public domain and
opened to settlement, and that the Indians
be paid $4,000 annually at each agency
for fifteen years.
