Poorhouse In Tyngsboro, Mass, Q town
teven miles from Lowell, . man with n
Imournfully strange and romantic his
tory. His name was willard Pierce,
and he was SO years old when he died !.
He had been In solitary confinement
in cell eight feet square for forty
ears, his food being passed to him
through q grating. He was hopelessly
insane during all this time, and would
sit all day long on q stool In one corner
with his face buried in his hands, but
II disturbed he would growl and snap
at the intruder dog fashion.
His hair and beard attained An
extrno binary length and hung in
a matted raven macs over his shoulders.
Despite his age, II had not turned color
la particle. His hands from conhne-
ment and the manner In which his
nails were allowed to grow had o close
resemblance to the talons of a mon
strcus bird, and his wizened face and
eyes, glittetiDg with insanity through
his thick beard, gave him q wild, un-
earthly appearance that, once seen,
could never be forgotten.
Ii ID said that In his young days
Pierce, Harvard grad uate, taught the
district school at Ty ngsboro, aud while
there fell In love with the acknow ledg

to Tynssboro TO find bis afiisnced un.

relapse, from which his reason never
recovered. His fckle sweet heart went
to New York City TO queen 1t rs the
wife OF a Wall Street broker, while he
dragged out forty years of u miserable
existence.

Interstate Commerce.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l0.--The confer
ence of The interstate commerce bills
reached an agreement to-day and will
soon present their conclusions. Many
of the features of both the Cullum and
the Reagan bills are retained in the
conference measures. The penalties
provided in both bills ore well retain
ed in the conference bill. The COM
mission provided for in the senate bill
is preserved, but shippers may elect to
prosecute for damages in the United
States courts on their own behalf, with
the provisio that they shall not have
the right 10 pursue their remedy in
the courts and through the
commission in the same case
it is made unlawful
for any railroad to charge more for
the transportation Of passenger, or of
like kind of property, under substan-
tally similar circumstances and con-
ditions, for a shorter or longer dis
lance over the same line and in the
same direction. The shorter being in
Guided with the longer distance, with
the proviso that in special cases, upon
application by the railroads, and after
investigation, the commission may
prescribe the extent to which such
railroad shall be relieved from the
operation of this action. The meas
urc adopts the House bill prohibiting
pooling.
Each railroad is required to print
and keep in every depot, for the in
spection of the public, the rates it may
establish between points upon its line.
They are also required to file with the
commission copies of all joint tariffs
of through rates to which they may be
party, and the commission is re-
quired to secure publication OF such
through rates as far as Iray be found
practicable. These are the principal
notifications of Importance. When
the substitute bill has been printed
the committee will go over it carefully
and may change the phraseology
slightly.

Gift Concert Tickets.

Those who want tickets in the
Grand Gift Concert to be given for the
benefit of the Confederate Home
should buy at once. The concert takes
place at Austin December 81. They can
be bought at A. c. Quicker Il Co.'s
bookstore, Main street: j. ID. A. Har-
ris' book store ON Main street, the
HERALD Office, Hickox a. Hearne's
drug store, Main street, and Ii. Il O.
telegraph Office in Windsor hotel.
Owing to the continued contribu-
ton OF presents TO the Confederate
Home Gift Concert enterprise and the
rapid growth of the enterprise, the
managers have found it necessary TO
postpone the drawing until December
81. in order to enable them TO make a
more satisfactory arrangement for the
occasion. Those who have already
purchased tickets can hold them, as
they are good for the 9th.

LII. FOSTER is being mentioned for
the position Of secretary of state. A
better selection could not be made.
Our first choice is Joe Baines, but 1t Is
not likely he can hold over, and we
are therefore for l.. L.--Belton Jour-
nal.
The HERALD also is for able, genial
and competent Joe Baines; but would
suggest Mr.. Foster as a man more
suitable for commissioner of iDsur-
and, statistics and history. What say
the press to that? This important
position has heretofore been filed by
old gentlemen, worn out in publicser-
vice. In Mr.. Foster the governor
would have a vigorous, young and
progressive man, we'll qualified to be
head of that department.
