i. Not Credited.
The will of Samuel J. Tilden will he
offered for probate at the office OF the surro-
gate of Westchester county in White Plains
today. The first intention was to have il
probated in New York, but it was found that
the law gave the surrogate of Westchester

has of late resided almost exclusively in that
county, so that his legal residence

yesterday that the probate would be contest
ed by George \. Tilden. He received the
same as his brothers and sisters, that is the
income of 100000 during his life, and the
right to will SlOO eco. The will provided
that If any one OF the legatees should contest
the will he should lose his share. 1t was
explained in the story referred to that Geo.

Col. Samuel j. Tilden and George 4. Tilden
went to New Lebanon on Monday evening
and in response to in nquiries last evening they
telegraphed that there was no truth whatever

who is intimate with all the Tideus, said last
evening
"The relatives were undoubtedly dlsap-

THE BARD OF LARCA6TER."
A Poetic Tramp Turns Up In Pittsburg a
Astonishes the Natives.

A Poetic Tramp Turns Up In Pittsburg and
Astonishes the Natives.
The Pittsburg Dispatch notes the fact that
on Saturday afternoon Thomas A. Armstrong
received a little parcel by mail, which, when
opened, proved to be a small book with the
pencilled words "Trampadore" across one
cover. On the inside OF the cover was this
inscription in bold penciled caps:
'The 30th book of the trampadore, or the
narrowing of the heart, by ORex Trampo,
the tramp poet bard of Lancaster"
The genius is not known in this vicinity,
but he is probably one of these peripat etic
individuals who relieve the monotony of a
policeman's life
Touching traces of the hardships the
author suffered are shown here and there in
the entries of his book. For instance
"Lancaster-A volume of poems to a lady,
lost in blast furnace when l slept" Not dis
couraged by this and kindred hardships, he
rs poemes." A streak OF excessively bad luck
seems TO have struck him here, for the follow
ing entry says, Z" have lost a volume of 100
poems, while taking drink one dark night
at pump at the Donegal blast furnace" ="
This has a value as matter OF record aside
srom its being history OF the life of one OF
whom more should be known. 1t records in
plain black and white the fact Of tramp
printer drinking at pump. To be sure il
doesn't say water, but what else can be in
fofredY And besides, doesn't the tramp him.
eelf asaign 1t as cause for his misfortune ?
H1n next volume was lost at Columbia, where
ne records in q waving hand and probably a
t0ar-dimmed eye, "One volume burned on
me IN a roll mill, by pudding vandal, 90
poems; and the next, consisting of 3S gems,
was left in the Columbia Jail.
As showing the manly nature of the bard
OF Lancaster, one stanZa OF the Hpoem "
''Give to Woman Her Rights" is quoted
"women are tender things. Hers is a milder
nature
Man he frowns and swears
He thinks 10 quiet all fears
Yes, he Is called brave and called the woman, =
master,
When she, dear angel, is supreme
Master of man, aye his queen
In all sway, but the legislation"

TIE DENOuEMENT.
The VI. p. SkIps and Krouse is Dis-
charged.

The events OF this morning form the
denouemem OF mystery which has for
several days kept more than one party in
hot water and which, springing itself too
suddenly upon the reporter of the from
bone, proved such serious shock to his
sense OF decency that he was forced TO
draw upon his imagination for one OF the
widest tales OF the premeditated and
cold-blooded theft of shoe brush that
has vet been invented The tale OF how
Krouse, wealthy Chicago merchant,
followed one-horse NJ. p. from San
Francisco to this city and then, thinking
it "time to cover his game" entered the
room and took therefrom brush or two,
is so well known that it need not be re-
peated.
The true inwardness OF the story (leav-
ing little room for the exercise Of the
imagination of intelligent readers) as
published the next evening in this paper,
is also fresh in the public mind and rem
ders its repetition unnecessary The
story as stated at that time, to the effect
that the Commoner had skipped with
the merchants '.girl - that the mer-
chant had followed them here; that he
had won her affections once more, and
that it was through her that the articles
were transferred" is as near to the true
version as any one has yct been able TO
get.
1t is not surprising that the NJ. =. and
the woman should have left this city on
the earliest train yesterday morning and
it will be very strange ii either OF them
is ever seen here again.
The Grand Jury this morning con
cluded their examination Of the case and
Krouse was discharged. 1t is stated
upon good authority that he will tele-
graph TO Denver and have the NJ. =. ar
rested there in order that he may prose-
cute his hobbs for the part he took in the
affair.
The discharge OF krouse will no doubt
settle the matter as far rs the Salt Lake
part OF it is concerned, and it will soon
die out like the greater sensations that
| have gone before.

THE MAIDEN RETURNS.
The sequel TO the Iron County
ElOpement.

Some time ago the DEMOCRAT published
the story OF an elopement which occurred
in Iron county, and in which the princi-
pals were a Mormon Bishops daughter
and Gentle youth from Denver. The
gentleman who brought the news OF the
elopement is again in town, and this time
tells the sequel to the story with the same
three-ply request that the names be sup
pressed. As it is not likely that either OF
the parties are known here the suppress
sion OF the names will not detract from
the interest of the story.
The girl claims that the young man
had induced her to leave home only upon
a promise that he would marry her when
they reached the next town. He had,
however, insisted upon her travelling II
much greater distance with him than
was at first proposed, and at last when
she had refused to go further, he pro-
posed to forego the formality OF q mar
riage ceremony for the present, and
asked her to leave with him for Denver.
The girls Puritanical ideas revofted, and
she, following suit, sought out some rela-
tives, who furnished her the wherewith
to return to her home. She says that
she had no idea her action was wrong,
and she says she was very glad to get
out OF his power.
One evening about IL week after the
elopement, the young girl returned to
her native town by stage and was soon
at her fathers door The old gent was
naturally wrathy and swore that he
would not allow her to enter the door,
but soon showed this to he idle talk, by
asking her to take a seat by the fire and
tell all about her troubles.
The old folks take the girls story as
true. She has settled down to the regu-
lar routine Of her former life, and all are
once more happy. 1t is now rumoied
that she is already engaged to marry the
good brother who was previously specu-
lating on her hand, and it is quite posi-
BILE that before the flowers bloom again
this hayward maiden will have attained
celestial glory for herself, her husband
and her husbands legal wife.
The story will be a lesson to the saint
esses to marry as their parents wish them
to, and trust to luck for the outcome.

THE BOHEMIANS ORGANIZE.
The Interesting Inaugural Meeting
of the New Social Club.

In response to the call made by the
chairman pro tenn. of the proposed Bohe-
milan Club, there was fair attendance
OF members at the Office OF the Dickert &
Meyers Sulphur Company last evening.
After some little discussion, it was de-
cided to put the question OF organization
or non-organization OF the club to vote,
in which the affirmative had large ma
jority. The constitution, bylaws and
house rules were then taken up and read
by sections. Each clause was considered
carefully before being passed upon, and
it is safe to say that after the revision OF
last evening it is not likely that the arti-
Giles will be subjected to further amend
ments. Owing to the time consumed
in this business, the election OF officers
could not well be proceeded with, and
the meeting adjourned until Monday
evening next.
Judging by the interest thus far shown
in the club, there is no possible chance
OF its proving anything but a success,
and with Il rousing meeting on Monday
night, the election OF good officers and
the signing OF the constitution the Bohe-
mian Club is sure to boom.

AN ATTEMPT TO RAPE.
N. VI. Anderson Charged With u
HetnOus Offense.

The closing OF the Police Court this af-
ternoon and the holding of private SEES
sion disclosed the fact that there was
something in the wind. Inquiry failed to
elicit any of the particulars of the trial
but the plain fact that man named n
NJ. Anderson was to be examined on the
charge OF attempting to commit rape
Who the intended victim is, is likewise a
mystery, but the presence OF Il
young Swedish girl, probably seventeen
years OF age, in the courtroom would
probably throw some light upon that
subject. Anderson is man about forty
years of age, aud, OF course, foreigner.
The lateness Of the hour when the mat
ter came out makes outside inquiry i'm
possible in time for to-day's issue
