A Sad Case.
A Family sa5ing Sine Esy Cac,
0i EririlinDSis.

Columbus Times.
1t will be remembered that fey
days ago Il young man named lien
ry Keltzenbacher was brought Il
the hospital in this ci,y f'om Car
bon Hill, Hooking county, and iha
after a short illness he died abou>
midnight on Wednesday. the ply
siclans pronouncing his death to be
the result of trichinos:s.
The remains of the young mar
were buried yesterday afternoon
and $50 last night, Peter Keltz
enbacher. father of the deceased
young man, arrived in this city
over the Ohio Central. having been
sent here by the authorities of Car.
bon Hill. He was met at the depot
by the patrol wagon and taken 20
the hospital. where he now lies in a
critical condition.
Inquiry INTO the case reveals the
information that not long since the
family, who, by the way, are very
poor, ate some pork that is now sup
posed to have been diseased. Since
then different mem bers o: the i:,,ni-
ly have taken sick, and not moro
than week ago Mrs. Kelizenbacl.-
er and young son died Of irichin-
osis. Then Henry was brought to
this city, when he died. Now the
husband and parent is afflicted, and
it is not at all likely that he will

Living in Washington.

Washington life in any form is costly.
| 1t was not so IL the old times, Or as late
as the seventies, but at last the rich and
fashionable visitors have done their per-
feet work in this city, as in Paris and
Newport. One way 10 I've in Washing
ton, OF course, is to 90 TO hotel. and
this way is not so very much costlier
than others, after all. Another way is
10 buy or rent hcuzc outright. But by
far the larger part OF the visiting con-
tingent seek q suite OF rooms, either
furnished or unfurnished, as the case
may be, with board. i suite OF two or
three furnished rooms in any desirable
location will cost man and wife all the
way from $50 to $50 g month. Very
stylish apartments viii run still higher.
Beard ranges from $50 to S150 or more
a month for each individual. There is
one other way of living peculiar TO
Washington, which is extensively used,
but which cannot be conscicntiously rec
commended. This is to take q suite
without board and have meals brought
to ones room Ky. caterer. There are
many OF these caterers here, and they
do their work Us wei; IS is possible in
the nature Of ths ease. They charge
only about $50 a month apiece, and
furnish III abundance OF good food as
ezpeditiorlsly as they can. But the in
conyeniences and drawbacks OF the
plan are obvious. The food has to be
cooked at the caterer headquarters and
carried in trans TO his patrons homes.
Then the table has 10 be set and the
viands extracted from the vehicle and
placed upon the dishes. By this time
al! the cooked articles have become cola
and must be heated 3 gain over the fire
Or an alcohol lamp. All the courses are
brought in ut once, and while one is be-
ing eaten the next is cooling and be-
coming spoiled. In fact, tha whole
meal is spoiled before it reaches the
house. -Capit.=I Letter 10 Boston I;rGsc.ee.-

The State Senate.

An exchange speaking of tie
workings at the Capitol, makes
the following very apt statement !:
The situation at Columbus re-
manned unchanged until Wednes-
day last, when the Republicans,
finding that seventeen Sena tors did
not constitute the Ohio Seratc-
even though proceeding IN IA arevolu-
t,onary and unlawful manner-pro-
posed the appointment of a confer
ence committee. The Democratic
Senators Qbe real Senate) acceded
to this proposition, and the commit
tee was appointed five Democrats
and five Republicans. The Senate
met acknowledgements and Re
publicans-thereafter, bul no bus
mess of Importance was transacted
Peace spread her gentle wings over
Il lie disgruntled Republicans, and
he people waited patiently on the
conference committee. After much
discussion tie Democrats consented
that TWO Republicans be added TO
the Committee Oh Privileges AMI
and that the sub commit |
Tee, TO consist Of three Senators
from each party, should investigate
The Hamilton county election. The
Committee could not agree, up to
attest advices, upcn the vital ques-
ion, to wit, as to the manner of
aking the final vote on the contest
ID cases--the Republicans claiming
that upon all cases the four Sena-
ols from Hamilton county should
,e denied the privilege OF voting,
nd the Democrats claiming that
ach case be considered upon its
merits, the final votes to be taken
eparately, and the three Senators

4 Coke Hmy,itasc.

PITTSBURGH, PA, Feb. 2.-The
great strike in the coke regions
is likely to cause a coke famine
It has been estimated that the
supply on hand to day, both by
the operator and consumer, vii!
not last, at the most, over ten
days, and at the expiration OF
that time, unless the strike is
broken and the men resume
work, the furnaces will have to
be banked, rolling rlills stopped
and thousands of men all over the
country will be thrown out of
employment. The magnitude Of
the strike, in the number of men
whom it affects, and in The hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars that
will be lost 10 working men, can
not be estimated.
In this region there are be-
tween 5000 and 5000 Of the class
Of people who are termed slaves
by Ii. c. Frick. This embraces
both men. women and children,
although two-thirds Of them are
men, and a very large proportion
of them single. It's not thought
that they realize what they are
going to do when put out of their
houses. Very faw of them have
begun to make any plans for the
future. Probably five per cent.
of them will 60 back to their ma
tive country. About thirty off
them bought tickets to Hungary,
yesterday.
To an interpreter one of the |
leaders said that they were dis
gns'ed with tins country and |
would never come back again.
A few are talking of going to the
South and West where there are
coal works, and The remainder
will probably go to the already
over-crowded Hooking Valley.
The action of the strikers in
to dig coal for the en-
gines is acting as a boomerang,
the operators having retaliated
by refusing to allow the strikers
to take any coal from the bins,
and in few days there will rot
be a hundred families in the
whole region who will have coal
enough to keep one fire burning.
Coke cannot be burned, and
there is no wood to speak of in
this region, so, with millions of
ions Of coal in the pits waiting to
be dug, the operatives will have
10 freeze and 60 without food or
give in and break the strike.

SHOT HN A CHURCH.

WABASH, IND. Feb. The
particulars have just reached here
Of u sensational affray which occur
red Sunday night. IN chuich IN
the village of Dora, twelve miles
southeast of this city, in which a
young man named VIII Oates was
shot by Clayton Pavey. Two years
ago Oates eloped with Miss Ida B.
Pavey. a sister of the wou'd be
murderer, the pair going TO Niles,
Mich, where they were welded.
Upon returning they were received
with open arms by the parents,
who had discouraged the suit, but
Clayton Pavey, the young lady s
brother, swore vengeance upon
Oates, and announced that he
would shoot him at the first oppor-
tunity.
Nothing more was heard of the
matter, however, until recently,
when the old quarrel was rene Hed
for some reason, and finally culmi-
mated, Sunday night. Mr.. aud Mrs.
Oates were sitting on q front pew,
and Clayton Pavey stalked up and
declared he had came to settle the
matter, at the same time striking
Oates. The latter assayed to de-
fend himself, and Pavey drew a
and fred ut Oates, who
grasped the weapon and received
very serious wound. The congre-
cation fed in wild disorder. Mrs.
Oates dropping her baby, who was
trampled upon and perhaps fatally
injured. Pavey was arrested last
night.

nesday says: A we'll de yeloped
scheme for tie manufacture of
counterfeit money was discov-
cred at the penitentiary yester-
day afternoon. Assistant Dep
uty Warden Stensil, while going
through the boiler room of the
WOODEN mill, discovered three
men hard at work behind the
boiler on making moulds for the
manufacture of nlckels. AS soon
as they saw him coming they ran
out Of the room, but he caught
them and seized all The imple-
ments in their possession. The
three guilty men are Michael
Callihan, five year man from
Greene county sent up for horse
stealing, John Sullivan, a five
year man from Logan county for
burglary and larceny, and j. A..
Dale, one year United States
prisoner for counterFeiting. 1t is
not known how long these men
have been at work, but it is
probable they commenced yes
terday, although the scheme has
been planned for some time
The moulds were not made in a
very ingenious manner and
showed that the men were work
ing in a hurry. They expected
to make the money from a mix
ture Of Babbitt and glass, both
being obtained in PattoU's foun-
dry. The Babbitt is a metal
used to line boxes and resembles
the solder used by timers; the
glass being mixed with it would
make it much harder. An ex-
animation will be made for other
moulds.

The division at Columbus con-

that the Democratic position

ence to he rules of the Senate,
and upon full and proper inves-
tigation of The Hamilton county
election. Republican advisers
are beginning to suggest investi-
CATION now, leaving the rules of

tlement. They are beaten. and
want to postpone the day of final
overthrow. There does not ap-
