life, and says it was the original
intention of the conspirators to catch ex-
Grand Secretary R. D. Layton on one of
his trips to New York and throw
him into the North river. This attempt,
Leffiingwell says, has completely terrorized
Grand Master Powderly, who has ever
since been in control of District No. 40.
Leffingwell says that at the Richmond
Convention Litchman was given the
Craftsmanship of both committees on law
and revision of the constitution. He as
serts that Litchman was thus enabled to
secure his election as General Secretary ON
q salary of $1,000 For denouncing this

A Pretty Vermont Girl Arrested TO
Forgery.

Forgery.
BURLINGTON (Vt.), November 19th.-The
city is shocked over what promises to be a
lively scandal. Miss Jennie Saxton, a
young woman of 20 years of age, came to
this city to be present at the wedding of her
sister on Tuesday night While making
preparations for that event the expectant
bride was surprised to see an officer enter
the room, and arrest her sister on charge
of forging two orders on the Burlington
Savings Bank in the mans of John L.
Mason, amounting to 81 300. The prisoner
admitted writing the orders, but claimed
that she had been authorized to do so by
Mr.. Mason. She wrote message to Mason,
informing him that she was arrested for
forging his name. and requesting his pres
ence in Burlington. He came and had an
interview with her, in which she asked
him to stand by her, but he refused to do
so. Her case was postponed to allow her
counsel time to prepare her case.
In default of bail Miss Saxton was COM
mitted 10 jail. She now charges that she
was betrayed by Mason when only 13 years
of age; that she had continued to meet
him by appointment up to the present
time; that she has letters from him making
appointments and showing their relations.
Mason is Director of the Central Vermont
Railroad. He is 80 years of age, is now
living with his second wife, and has mar
ried daughter. He is one OF the most pro-
minent men in the county. He charges
that the affair is case of blackmail Miss
Saxton is beautiful and accomplished.

THE SEQUEL.

DETROIT, November 19th.-A special to
the Free Press from Frankfort says A ter
rible lake disaster occurred last night, and
there is left not a soul to tell the story.
During the hight of the storm yesterday
afternoon, at intervals through the blind
ing snow, three-masted schooner could
be seen about six miles southwest of Frank
fort. Her poles were almost bare, and the
deck seemed clear of cargo. An attempt
was made to anchor her. and she held for
a time, but soon broke loose and drifted
helplessly before the gale. The wind
gradually increased in violence, and the
seas were growing every moment larger,
when darkness settled over the lake. Help
was asked from the life-saving station at
Manistee, but it was impossible for tug to
live in such gale. After great trouble the
life-saving station six miles north of here
was reached, and the apparatus hauled
down to the coast by a few volunteers over
the steep hills, winding ravines, tree trunks
and heavy snow drifts, and pelted by driv-
ing snow and hail. They arrived at the
scene of disaster at Herring creek at 4
o'clock this morning. after twenty-mile
struggle against the elements. The vessel

What sad commentary upon our
civilization arc those lost women and
the attitude Of society toward theml
A little child strays from the home in
closure and whole community is on
the alert to restore it to its mothers
arms. What rejoicings when it is
found, what fearful sympathy, what
heartiness Of congratulations There
are no harsh comments upon the poor,
tired feet, be they never so miry; no
reprimand for the sojled and torn gar
ments, no lack Of kisses for the tear
stained face. But let the child be
grown to womanhood; let her be led
from the inclosure of morality by the
voice of affection, or driven from it by
the strong scourge of want-what
happens then? Do Christian men and
women go in quest Of her9 Do they
provide all possible help for her re-
turn, or, if she returns of her own mo-
ton, do they receive her with such
kindness and delicacy as secure her
against wandering again9 Far from it.
At the first false step she is denounced
as lost-lost, echo friends and rela-
tiyes-we disown you; don't ever come

my mind, Cameron is natural, health
benediction. Its air is filled with gifts
from the sea, Flotsam which the law
of health allows to every man, woman
and child who viii take the trouble Of

realize the worth of this air-privileges
If they did, we would soon behold

laid the foundation, well laid it too,
and all it needs is the exercise Of

whole parish would reap rich finsn-
cial reward. Money we'll spent in an
effort to improve and beautify Lees

PROTECTION or TEAEEsEM.
By What Authority amd ny
Whom It Is being Gus Upon
the KsmblAe Momnmfm.

Omaha Bee Washington special:
The Senate, upon motion Of Senator
Van Wyck, has directed the commit
tee on public lands to aacertain BY
what authority timber cnt upon the
public domain, by the consent and
knowledge and under the rulings Of
the interior department and ordered TO
be sold without Judgment or execu-
tion of court directing the same. This
resolution Is not directed at the Mon
tana Improvement company, which is
charged with having shipped large
area Of timber, and there IS no com
plant that the proceedings against il
are irregular. But it is intended to
protect citizens and miners Of the from
tier, to whom the timber on the lands
is absolutely necessary. An act Of
Congress, passed in 1878, permits ae-
tnal settlers to cut timber on mineral
lands for actual use. Secretary Schurz
construed the law to mean that timber
could be cut only for domestic puFpo-
ses, and that every man must cut II
for his own use, and that it could not
be sold. When Secretary Teller came
into the Interior Department he modi-
fed that order so that timber could be
cut by persons who did not require il
for their own use, and could Be sold
by them for domestic purposes and
for use at mines. But he prohibited
Its being cut for shipment ont Of the
country. II has beep claimed in the
Interior Department that miners and
settlers in the northwest have exceeded
the authority given them BY Secretary
Teller, and are exporting large quanti-
ties of timber, ana Secretary Lamar
has returned to the construction orig
inally given the law by Secretary
Schurz, which is said to be working
very great hardships among the set
tiers on the frontier.
