HELD To BAIL.
John Roberts Has His Examination For
Shooting Galloway.

The preliminary examination in the
case of the Territory of Wyoming VS..
John Roberts, the colored man who is
charged with an assault with intent to
murder, occurred before Judge Lee yes
terday afternoon, County Attorney Mann
appearing on the part of the prosecution.
The defendant was not represented by
counsel. Several witnesses were examined,
and from their testimony it appeared that
the defendant called Galloway out of the
Tivoli, fired two shots at him, and after
chasing him through that place and out of
the south door, fired a third shot. Evidence
was also adduced tending to show that.
Just prior to the shooting Roberts had
been trying to borrow a revolver of an
other colored man. Roberts in his own
behalf testified that Galloway drew a re-
volver on him, and that in trying TO
wrench it away from him the revolver
was discharged, after which he (Roberts)
got possession of the weapon, fired a shot
at Galloway and after chasing him through
the Tivoli fired another. Roberts claimed
that Galloway had been too familiar with
his wife.
At the conclusion Of the testimony the
court held that even under Roberts own
statement of the matter he must be held
to bail. The court therefore required
Roberts to give bail in the sun of $500
for his appearance at the next term of
court, and being unable to give it he was
committed to the county Jail.

@-T The earthquake shock which was so per-
ceptibly felt in some sections of Baltimore county
a few minutes before ten o'clock on Tuesday night
last, was very severe in the South, where in some
places it created the greatest CONSERVATION. In
Charleston, South Carolina, the shock-or rather
succession of shocks-caused houses to topple over
and the people fed in dismay into the streets for
safety. 1t is believed that at least sixty persons
were killed, while many others were injured. A
great deal of property was destroyed, including a
railroad bridge, which was shaken from its foun-
dations. Telegraph and telephone wires were
thrown down and for time the city of Charles
ton was entirely cut off from the outside world and
it was impossible to learn the full extent of the
damage that had been done. Never in the history
of that city had it sustained such shaking up
and the people were paralyzed with fear at this
most remarkable visitation.

"No Objections to the Country"
The I,fer;Or

find these words in an advertisement in one
of the daily papers. man in Chicago wants a
situation. He says he can take care of horses
and make himself generally useful, and closes with
the gracious assurance that he has no objections
to the country. Of course, he would prefer to get
a place as coachman, or drayman in the city,
where he could enjoy the society that gathers in
the saloons. But failing in this he would conde-
scend to live and work in the country. We rus
tics ought to be profoundly grateful to this deni-
zen of the city, that his aversion to us and our
rude surroundings is not insuperable. We should
hasten, no doubt to offer him every inducement
in our power to cast in his lot with US and try to
ciyiize us. But / confess that don't feel so. On
the contrary, am disguised with the fellow
snobbishness. We don't want men in the country
who come to it reluctantly; who consent to waive
their objections to it under the pressure of stern
necessity. We are enthusiastic in loving our
rural homes. We believe that to live with us in
the pure fresh air is far better than to live in the
reeking atmosphere of the town. Ifthat man had
said in his advertisement, "The country prefer
red," we would have tried to find place for him.
We would have thought that he was at least o
temperate man who could live beyond the shadow
of a whiskey. saloon. But his form Of statement
is not likely to attract the countrymal who wants
reliable help. The phraseology of this advertise
ment implies that this man regards himself as ex-
ceptional Its meaning is: Wage-vorkers as a
class prefer the city, but am willing to waive
that preference. But what is the cause of the
preference? Why do laborers want to herd to-
gether? Are men like CATTLE naturally gregarious,
or are they drawn together by the attractions Of
the corner grocery?

@- Lately there has been great deal of spec
Congressional contest in the Second district
Some of the Baltimore papers have asserted with
much positiveness that the Senator's sympathies
were altogether with DR.. Shaw; that he wanted
him renominated, and some of them even went so
far as to say that Mr.. Talbot had been "ordered'
to get out of the fight. Some people actually be-
leved these reports and based their calculations
as to the result upon them. The UNION stated
some time ago that it did not believe there was
any foundation for such rumors and it now turns
out that this conclusion was correct. few days
ago Senator German met State Treasurer Archer
the political situation in this State and we quote
from the Suns regular Washington correspondent
what he said about the Second district, viz:
GAS between Representative Shaw and Mr.. Tai
bolt, who is also seeking the Congressional nomi-
nation in the Second district the Senator says he
has no right to interfere and has not done so in
spite of all that has been said to the contrary. In
his opinion the people of the Second district are
abundantly able to select their own Congressman
without inquring whether their choice will be sat
isfactory to him. As he has maintained all along,
he does not propose to mix up in any of the Con-
gressonal contests this fall and for that reason he
is going West, where he will be away from politics
and politicians for awhile at least"
In view of the fact that the relations between
Senator German and the Sms correspondent are
quite intimate and the still further fact that that
paper generally reflects the views of Maryland's
senior Senator, the above may be accepted as true
in every particular and should set at rest the idle
rumors that have been so industriously circulated
by interested parties.

Cremation by Electricity.

Lancaster Pal E1dminer.
Although the voice of the church has recently
been raised against the practice of cremation, the
advocates of incineration, as opposed to inhuma-
ret desistaqh 5rgR ahsi t e. c rsna
ton is that several hours required to effect the
complete calcination of the body, even in fur
mace which would fuse cast iron or copper. There
is also sentimental principle which prevents
many persons from consenting even to listen to
reason on the subject.
But the new process, if it can be economically
carried out is free from all objection that of
adverse religious conviction. The corpse is con-
nected by conductive wires with powerful dyna-
mo machine of great electro. motive force The
instant the connection is made the body is COM
pletey carbonized, and its destruction is claimed
to be exceedingly swift and entirely accomplished
without evolving unpleasant fumes. 1t is not
stated whether the experiments have been so sys-
tematically carried out as to make the discovery
of practical utility, but it is certain that the
subject of disposing of the dead of large cities
must one day receive attention as matter OF
necessity.

Gss- The Philadelphia Press recently published
some facts showing the prices of the articles
usually called necessaries of life seven and eight
years ago. The general conclusion reached is
that the same amount of money will 60 further in
obtaining necessaries at present than it would at
the period mentioned. In the case of tea and
coffee the price now paid is practically the same
as in 1878, but the quality is stated to be twenty
five per cent. better. All kinds of spices are
twenty-five per cent. lower than in 1878. All
kinds of vegetables and garden produce are stated
to be lower by twenty per cent. than they were in
1878. The great development of the Western
dressed meat traffic, of recent years, has had the
tendency of reducing the prices for this class of
supplies. All kinds of miscellaneous groceries,
such as coal oil, candles, dried fruits and canned
goods, are stated to have declined in price from
ten to twenty-five per cent.

w- Last week The UNION mentioned the fact
that there were numerous complaints in the Belt
that the county cffcers-polcemen fremen, gar
bagemen and others-were busily engaged in po-
litcal work to the neglect of their Duties and the
attention of the County Commissioners was called
to the matter with the suggestion that should
these rumors be found to be true, the Board should
take steps to compel those officials to attend strict
y to their duties and keep out Of politics. At the
meeting of the Commissioners this week Mr.. Todd
stated that complaints against the officers had
reached his ears and he presented an order to the
Board setting forth the facts and at the same time
directing the employees of the county to remain at
their posts and attend strictly to their duties, at
the same time assuring them that they need have
no fear of mourning the displeasure of the Board
by voting their own sentiments. Messrs. Crout
and Rittenhouse, the other two members of the
Board, declined to sign the order and therefore no
restriction has been placed upon the acts of these
officars
