FROM THE E Asst.

THE will of the late W. w. Corcpran has
been offered for probate in Washington.
The greater portion Of the estate, which is
valued at $4,000. 600, is bequeathed to his
three grandchildren, George p, Louis +.
NJ, and VIM. G. Eustis, to be held in trust
for them for ten years. Several legacies
of $4 900 and $1,000 are left to other rel
atives and similar amounts to various
orphan asylums in the district. The sum
of 500, 900 is left TO the Corcoran Art gall
lery, the will stating that 81 500, 900 had
already been given to that institution;
$4,000 to the Louise home, $500, 900
having already been devoted to it.
A NEW YORK special says: Jay Gould
has sailed from Gibraltar and is on his
way over the sea for America. He has
been steaming steadily for week and will
soon reach the Western shores. After
leaving the islands of the African coast he
will cut straight across the ocean on the
line of the Tropic of Cancer on the twen-
tieth parallel Of latitude to st. Thomas, in
the West Indies islands, where he will very
likely land. Mr.. Gould has purposely kept
his movements secret.
THE other night there was conspiracy
to get hold of copies Of the tariff for pre-
mature publication, but it accidentally
failed. Early in the evening Mr.. Bryan,
foreman Of the government printing office,
received a message over the telephone pur-
porting to come from Mr.. Mills, the chair
man of the committee. who had exclusive
charge of the bill, asking him to deliver
ten copies Of the same to his house at 10
O'Clock. Mr.. Bryan replied that he feared
it would be impossible to do SO, but he
would try. At 10 o'clock he sent mes
senger to the house of Mr.. Mills, to say
that he was unable to deliver the copies Of
the tariff bill as requested and was very
much astonished to learn that Mr.. Mills
knew nothing Of the order that had come
over the telephone. 1t appears that an en-
terprising newspaper man, knowing that
the long expected measure would be q
valuable piece of news, endeayored to OBJ
tain it in this way.
OSCAR F. BEGKwITH was hanged at
Hudson, N, Y, the other day, for the

in the state in hopes Of saving his neck.

STANHoPE, secretary of war, has issued

secure. Stanhope proposes that active
measures be immediateld passed by par
lament to remedy this weakness.

temple John Roxy, a brotherhood striking

lynching Bostwick was walked to Linneus,
where he is under arrest. He states he

charge of an engine from the east at Brook
field. That Roxy and others approached
the engine and endeavored to take charge
of it. An alteration ensued in which
Roxy drew pistol and when refusing to
put it up, he (Bostwick) shot him. Bost-
wick claims to have been warm friend of
Roxy and says that short time before the
shooting they were laughing and joking
together.

aged 66 years. He was buried in the
grounds adjoining the Cash mansion, be-
side his son, Boggan Cash. a young despe-

where he had been visiting relatives.
A SENSATION was created at Spokane
Falls, w. T., recently by four clerks in
the post-office quitting work in body,

derstood he has wired his resignation. The
Office is second-cla but the postmaster
is only allowed $4,000 salary. and 800 for
clerk hire. The clerks threatened to re-
sign before, and Assistant Agent Steven

JERRY LEWIS, colored we'll digger, was
buried alive in 14O-foot well about six
miles north Of Hemingford in Box Butte
county, Neb. He was engaged in curbing

In the Wisconsin supreme court an in
teresting and important case has been de-
cided. The last legislature enacted law
permitting habitual drunkards to be sent
to the inebriate asylum by due process of
law provided some person gave bonds to
pay the expenses of such drunkards while
thus confined. Under this law Coultland

release on the ground that the law was in
valid as making drunkenness criminal
act.
The commencement of what will un-
doubtedly be long series of trials and ap-
peals took place at Ottawa, H., when the

with having appropriated for his personal
use a large amount of money received in
fees and which should have been turned
over to the county. The bills presented by
Mulligans deputies showed that they must
have been men of most astonishing endur-
ance and possessed of an inordinate desire
for eating, one of them having handed in a
sworn account, in which he stated that be
had driven in buggy 10 miles in one day,
besides eating eight meals and taking a
railroad trip Of nearly 100 miles.
