.ss,Tucb Ado About Nothins.,,

Yesterday the startling information was
given Capt. DAILY at police headquarters
that some unknown party had made muir
derous assault at the house of Amos Olson,
on North First street, near the Manitoba
railway tracks. 1t was charged that a
would-be assassin had fired shot through
the window and that the deadly missile,
which narrowly escaped boring hole
through Mrs. Olson, was deeply imbedded
in the chimney. Sergt. Hill and Officer
Krumweide were speedily dispatched to
make an investigation. The chimney was
closely inspected but no bullet hole was
discovered, yet the window was found to be
shattered. Inquiry in the neighborhood
found no one who had heard the report of
a pistol shot, and the theory is devolved
that either the family is DESTROYS of creating
a cheap sensation or else vicious boy with
a sling shot created the whole disturbance.

stract OF the votes polled in October cleo
ton for State officers, for the resson the
Clerk OF the Court OF Hamilton County
as refuses to certify the returns re-
quired by law. The contest over the
Scholarships from Hamilton County has
nothing to do with the neglect or refusal
of Clerk Dalton to prefOru his sworn duty.
The law provides that aEepArate abstract

Secretary Oi State tJr some weeks.
The reason ii ia not Oh file is because
the Coal.oil & ing AMI the Doodle bosses
have ordered The Clerk 10 told the fe.

OF the statutes, that the Doodle botB may
keep his hand on the throat OF the people
OF Cincinnati. In order to maintain
hold on Cincinnati the lights OF all the
people OF the State are outraged. 1t is a
question whether the people will standa
great deal of this kind OF monkeying.
The people have elected Judge Spear to
the Supreme Bench over Gibson Ather-
ton. The law provides that this returns
shall ba Canvasstd By the Governor and
Secretary OF State between the first and

further provided that Immediately upon

As stated above, the ic 'urns from Ham

THEs little dispatch came along Just in
time to attract the notice OF the free
traders in session at Chicago, but they
were probably too busy doing homage at
the shrine Of Cob;leu to give the subject
matter due consideration:
GLASGOW, Nov. l0.-The depression
which has existed for some time in the
shin building trade OF the Clyde is increas'
inv in geye,ity. There are SO many men
ont OF employment that the relief commit
tees find great dihiculty in supplying
even food i0r tile distressed people. There
were forty-seven stowawavs discovered in
the hold OF q vessel which was about to
sail for America.
II this is what happens in Great Britain
under the policy Of free trade, what is
there in that policy to make it attractive
TO the United States? And why is it taat
the distressed OF that land OF free trade
flee to this land OF protection in the hope
OF escaping starvation2 the professors
NAV write books, and the Golden Club dis
tribute phamphlets, singing the praises Of
free trade, but these things make itno Icss
difficult to get "even food for the distress
ed people" In economical inquiries a
little cold, indisputable TACT outweighs a
CARLOAD OF theoretical speculation.
1t would seem useless for the British
missi,. naries to go further in their effort

truths" Of free trade. They will have
their hands full to apply those alleged
truths with beneficial effect to their own

$4,000, 900 in orders, down TO the last fiscal
year. wheu the 1885 Offices issued orders
amounting to SlgO 100000 The feeD now

During the fiscal yoar 1G7 money order
offices were established and Ii discontin-
ued. Since the { OIe OF the fiscal year 3t'3
offices have beeQ add4d and 1 have been
discontinued.
The total amount OF payments and re-
payments of money orders was sIlS,TD6,-
