NEW CASTLE.

Special Correspondence of Gazette and ournal
NEW CASTLE, May 3t.-The funeral
services of Lacrosse Jefferson, son of W.
H. Jefferson of New York, were held in
the Presbyterian Church yesterday and
conducted by the Rev. Mr.. Pattison. The
remains were inferred in the Presbyterian
cemetery.
An unprovoked assault was made on
Arthur Wise, the night operator at the
railroad station, Saturday night. About
10 o'clock an unknown drunken man
entered the office and inquired what time
the next train would leave for Whining
ton. Wise replied there would not be
any train that night. With an oath the
ruffian raised his arm, and before Wise
could defend himself struck him fearful
blow in the face, and then ran ont of the
Office. Wise attempted to follow him
and as he came out the door he was again
dealt blow in the face by the coward,
who had hidden behind the door. He
then walked out. E. F. Duffy, the ticket
agent, who happened to be in the vicinity,
followed the assailant and administered
to him richly deserved thrashing. He
allowed him to escape upon his promising
to leave the town.

'sr"cistsd Press Dispstcu by special Iires
WASHINGTON, June 2.--Miss Folsom
| arrived safe in Washington shortly after
$50 o'clock this morning and was met by
Colonel Lamont. There were very few
persons in the Baltimore & Potomac
depot when the train arrived, although it
was broad daylight. The train was COM
posed of four cars and President Roberts
private car, the latter being occupied by
Miss Folsom and the party. While Col.
Lamont was hurrying down the platform,
Mr.. Benjamin Folsom stepped out of the
rear end of the car. He was dressed in n
mixed suit Of brown with white Derby
and carried q dark spring oyercoat
over his arm. Miss Folsom pre-
sently alighted. She was dressed
in black and wore wrap of
the same color to protect her from the
morning air, stylish hat trimmed with
white and black ribbons, and black kid
| gloves. She is of medium size, and her
manner was shy and restless. She was
escorted by Colonel Lamont to the car
riage, and driven direct to the White
House with Mrs. Folsom, who was dressed
in black, and looked little tired, and
Mrs. Rogers of Syracuse. There was q
little delay, owing to the number of Eng
lish-looking hat boxes, shawl-straps, and
other bundles which had to be looked
after.
Conductor r. Mitchell, who was nj
charge of the train, said that the journey
was quiet and devoid of incident The
engine was No. SO and was run by En-
gineer Bailey, one of the most trusted en-
gineers on the road.
There was slight misty rain falling
when the train arrived. Later on the
clouds broke away and there is every
prospect now of fine weather.
AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-The White
House was entirely closed to visitors to-
day, and the usual afternoon reception
by the President was omitted. Inside all
was hustle and confusion in preparing
for the wedding. Among those who saw
the President were Mr.. Wilson l.. Bissell,
the Rev. DIR. Sunderland, Secretary
Lamar. Acting Secretary Faircliild and
Senator Van Wyck.
Several express wagons unloaded numer-
GUS packages of various sizes at the main
entrance and were at once removed from
sight. Some were addressed to the Presi-
dent, some to Miss Folsom, some to Col.
Lamont and one to ''Mrs. Grover Cleve-
land" Most of them were undoubtedly
wedding presents.

William P. McCloskey, who had acted as
secretary, handed in the names of Kyle,
Donahoe and Malloy, but Chairman Kane
announced that the selection of Malloy
had not been made when the proceedings
were interrupted by the call of the county
meeting to order. Then the meeting at
once became scene of disorder, hun

The subsequent proceedings were brief,

of HIS IIOnor's, but as BeTgstrom hasn't
kept quiet. | suppose he considered il
too foolish TO pay any attention to.
Now, Mr.. Editor, can you explain how
that decision applies TO the "hOld-over-

Sunset Railroad? How a decision of

has anything to do with the right of a

home south OF the Catholic Cemetery in
the First Ward at noon Saturday, and
has not yet been discovered. He was
dressed in a brown coat and trousers,
and was bareheaded when he left. The
old gentleman is almost an imbecile
from age and trouble. and the worst is
feared for him on account OF the expos

last two days.
Yesterday morning he was 9een on
Powder House Hill, going on towards
the SaladO, by the Salado road.
