''SOME Of our Irish American citi-
zens,' says the Pittsburg Post, "are
manifesting better judgment and infn-
itely more common sense in dealing with
the Home Rule issue on this side of the
water than are certain Americans to
the manner born. The Rochester IN.
" Union, whose editor is an Irish
American and a strong advocate of
Home Rule for Ireland, criticises unfa-
vorably the action of the State LegisIa-
ture in passing resolutions of sympathy
with Parnell and Gladstone and the at
tempt to have similar resolutions passed
in the House Of Representatives.
Nothing, says the Union, could be
better calculated to embarrass both Mr..
Gladstone and Mr.. Parnell at this mo-
ment than i'll advised expression from
official bodies, whether Of government
or of private organization that NAV be
readily cabled over to London to inhame
the English mind and further excite
the English prejudice We are in
clined to agree with the position taken
by the Union. The opposition to Glad
stone can point to these resolutions as
proof that Irish Americans are clamor-
ing for the establishment of Home Rule
"a consideration which will not help
the measure in the minds Of a certain
class of Englishmen, whose support the
Premier cannot dispense with. At any
rate, Parnell's habitual reticence may
be safely initiated by his friends on this

FRANK HURD's claim to seat in
Congress from the Tenth Ohio district
vas finally decided against him on
wednesday of last week, by vote of
lO5 in his favor to 16S in the negative.
This result took place in a Democratic
House against one Of the most promi-
nent and distinguished Democrats in
the country, which is most notable
thing, and one that we do not remember
ever happened to a Republican in a Re-
publican House. When Thaddeus Ste
yens held the lash over a Republican
House the contest for seat was always
decided IN favor of the man who be-
i0nged to the dominant party and not
upon the merits of the case. the turning
out of his seat of that battle SCARED he
TO, General Shields, although indisputa.
bly, elected, being the most conspicuous
Of Stevens performances in that line.
The unseating Of Henry D. Foster, Of
the Westmoreland district in this State.
in favor Of John Covode, was only a
little less in its downright injustice.
More than forty Democrats voted
against giving the seat to Hurd, and
they did so Oh the simple ground that
Hurd had failed to satisfy the commit
zee that he had received more votes
shan his opponent, Romeis. Hurd's
friends in the district express their de-
termination to nominate him again next
.all and send him back to Washington
with such a majority as will convince
Congress that the popular voice Of
Maumee country ls largely in bis favor.

JOHN SHERMAN, of Ohio, introduced
q bill into the Senate last week to paw
William T. Crump s., 600 as a compsn-
satiOn for injuries received while nurs-
ing President Garfield, Precisely how
Crump was injured is not stated, and
even if it was it is no reason why the
government should indemnify him.
The general allegation is made that his
health was seriously impaired by the
constant nursing of the ex-President.
Admitting this to be true, the question
is who is his debtor, the government or
Mrs. Garfield She is abundantly able
TO foot the bill and would never feel the
loss. If Congress allows this claim it
will be regarded as a precedent in the
future, and there will be no end to the
bills that will be fled against the gov
ernment by persons who happen to be
employed at the White House when a
President dies. If Mrs. Garfield won't
pay CTump, then John Sherman himself
ought to pay him. The man whom
Crump nuTsed made Sherman Secretary
Of the Treasury, and it is not very ex-
lensively believed that he lost anything
during his four years tenure of the Of
ice.

The Bishop of Madrid Shot at the Cathe-
dral by One OF His Clergy.

At 1890 O'Clock on last Sunday morn
ing, while the Bishop of Madrid was
ascending the steps leading to the en-
trance of the Cathedral he was shot
with revolver by priest standing at
the top of the steps, the ball entering
his abdomen. This was followed by
another from the same source, which
wounded the Bishop in the side, where
upon the wounded man fell upon the
steps. The priest then descended the
steps and fred still another shot, which
took effect in the Bishops thigh.
The assailant was then seized and his
victim borne in an unconscious condi-
tiOn to a private chamber IN the Cathe-
dral, where the last sacTaments for the
diving we're administered 20 HIM. Being
Palm Sunday, the Cathedral was more
shan usually crowded hy worshipeTs.
and when the fearful work of the priest
was realized 2 furious mob followed the
carriage in which he was conveyed to
prison bY gend' d'aTmes. whose presence
alone prevented a lynching. The mo-
tive for the crime was revenge. He
was dismissed from She priesthood, and
had fruitlessiy applied TO the Bishop to
be reinstated Queen Christina has in
quired into the Bishops condition, and
the Pope has telegraphed his blessing.
The Bishop died on Monday.

IF Mr.. Cleveland marries Miss Fol-
som, of Buffalo, sometime next June.
as it Is now believed he intends doing.
James Buchanan will be the only bach
elor President that the country has ever
had. There have been four Presidents
who were widowers at the time of their
Observation-Disclosures, Jackson. Van
Buren and Arthur, and sixteen were
married men when they entered the
White House. John Tyler is the only
President who ever married while hold
ing the Office. This took place in June.
1914, the bride being Miss Juliet Gardi-
ner, of New York. The ceremony was
performed at the Church of the Ascen-
sion, in that city, and not at the White
House. There are four widows of Pres

Pattisen to Higbee.
HARRISBURG. Aprilz15. sc

IlAENflSbO NNr- y ~ IL IL oos
Rev. f. E. Higbee. D. D., Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction-Sir 4:
In view of the recent disclosures
of gross abuses. mismanagement
and neglect in the Department of
the Soldiers Orphans Schools, which
have taken place during your incum-
bency as superintendent, I deem it for
the best interest of the State and Of the
schools that there should be a change in
the official direction of that Depart
ment.
When you were appointed TO vour
present office, last year, these abuses
and this NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. were up-
known to me. Had I known them
would not have regarded your cOntinu-
ance in Office as being for the public
interest. The exposure of them pro-
ceeded from private source. ard was
not the result Of your Official act, In-
deed. you have certified in a letter to
me. under date of March 6. 1886. that
the charges were untrue and shat the
schools were properly managed. A
thorough investigation has, on the other
hand, convinced me of the existence of
the abuses and evils alleged.
The circumstances appear to me TO
demand your resignation as Superin-
teudent of the Soldiers Orphans
Schools, and l therefore request that
you will give me an opportunity TO ap-
point to the head of that department
some one who will assist me in the re-
organization of the schools and their
superintendence in a way more in ac-
cord with my views of duty and the re-
quiTements of the law, as to which we
evidently so radically differ, aud as to
which harmonious views and action are
of such Importance for the well-being
Of the department.
Yours respectfully,
ROB'T +. PATTtSON.

IN pursuance of the resolution offered

a leading Knight of Labor, who was at
Washington urging the passage of the
resolution, said after the announcement
of the committee, that with the excep-
tiOn of Governor Curtin aid Mr.. Grain,
Of Texas, the composition of the
committee is unfavOrable to the
workingmen, there being too many
champions of railroad corpora tions
among its members. Assuming this to
be true we have no doubt that Messrs.
Curtin and Grain will see to it that all
the facts in regard to the origin of the
trouble are ELECTED, no matter whom
they affect, and that they will be fully
embodied in the report which the COM
mittee will make to the House for what
ever action it may take. Ali that Con-
gress wants is the facts, and any white
washing report will meet with prompt
public condemnation. After the COM
mittee has examined Mr.. Powderly Jay
Gould and some others at Washington

The manufacture of lager in America

gone ahead and spread itself like the mus

about 2,2O0 breweries in this country, and
they sold last year over 19, O0O. 600 barrels of
malt liquors. OF this, New York and
Brooklyn contributed near a quarter. The
next largest producers are Milwaukee, St.
