NORFOLK. January ID, 1888.
This morning about o'clock Mr..
Bryan Lynch, who was found asphyxi-
ated by gas yesterday, died at his room
opposite the Purcell House. He was
keeper of the billiard. rooms at the Pur-
cell House, and for several years was
baggage master on the Norfolk and
Western railroad. He was always proud
OF the distinction Of having been General
Lees steward during the war;
a committee OF prominent Democrats
of the city left for Washington last night
to interview Secretary Whitney and Sen
ator Barbour in regard to work In the
navy yard here and its apportionment
among The workiDgmen of Norfolk,
Portsmouth, and Norfolk county.
The truckers are complaining about
too much rain for their work OF making
ready for the spring crops. The kaie the
truckers are shipping now is OF the
Scotch variety, and they receive Sl.25
per barrel, which is profitable, as Scotch
kale is stiff, and it takes very little to I'LL
barrel. The regular blue kale OF the
trucking fields will come later on.
The colored oyster-shuckers OF this
vicinity are greatly complaining of hard
times on account Of the scarcity of work.
A cold snap would help this class OF
people amazingly. The oyster fourishes
best in cold weather, and the industry
languishes in oil its ramitications when
the season is mild.
The United States jurors were paid OF
yesterday by Deputy Marshal John Fl.

There was snow and hail here last

a rour-Footed PaBtomimist Inspires
Terror on Broadway.
pnnnln VIM hannened 10 be on Bro!

People who happened to be on Broad
way between Thirteenth and Eighth
street shortly after 8 o'clock last eve
ming were treated to the sight OF genu-
inc camel chase-somethng extremely
uncommon in the thoroughiares of a
well.regulated metropolis, 1t is doubtful
if the treat WIS thoroughly appreciated,
however, for the larger portion OF the
SPECTATORS evinced remarkable desire
to get speedily out of view.
The animal, which was by turns the
chased and the chaser forms portion
of the small menagerie required nightly
at the Academy of Music i'll connection
with the presentation of the spectacular
pantOmime "Mazulm, and it was being
taken from the theatre to the stables at
Prince and Wooster streets. Near the
Thirteenth street corner the camel es-
capped from its keeper and began to run
2igZGg course for wntowD, approach
ing first one sidewalk aud then the other,
TO the CONSERVATION of male pedestrians
and the unutterable terror of those of the
other sex. Several ladies fell to the
ground in sheer fright, while others ran
and lodged or stood helplessly in door
ways.
But among those who saw the career
ing animal were a couple of men who
had some experience with untamed
brutes and didn't share the general ter
ror. They were George Hicks, an ath-
lete. who is quite well known in apro-
fessional way. and Richard Brown, a
horse trainer, who has seen rough life in
Australia and in the West. They
cautiously followed the camel down
the street, watching for favora-
bic moment to advance upon him,
and they found their chance near
Eighth street. a private carriage con
tanning II lady and gentleman and little
girl was coming up Broadway. The
driver saw the camel and tried TO turn his
team around. The camel saw the car
riage and prepared for a charge. Then
Hicks and Brown sprang quickly into ac-
ton, both going to the ANIMALS head and
grasping ut its nostrils, so as to smut OF
its breath. The animal struggled, but
uselessly, for the men wouldn't be shaken
off, and the humpbacked beast was soon
under control
A policeman first and the breathless
keeper later reinforced the clever cap
tors of the camel, and the keeper
marched the animal off to the stable.
The elephant and other four-footed
actors in the play came along a few
moments after, fortunately not in season
to add their efforts TO the afterpiece in
the street.

DOGS AND POULTRY BURNED.
A Prize SHOW Consumed in keGi.
mental ArnOry.

CoLUMBUs, o., January 12.-The
Fourteenth Regiment armory, o frame
structure on Spring street. was burned
at 6 O'Clock this morning. The fire
caught from defective flue, and soon
enveloped the building. The drapery
and evergreen went like flash, every
thing gong up like an explosion. The
force OF men about the amory endea-
vored TO get the valuables and livestock
out, but were unable to do anything of
consequence. The building was totally
enveloped in less than ten minutes.
There were LOCO rounds of ammunition
in the building. The cartridges exploded,
the bullets flying in all directions,
making itdangerous for the men to work.
Pete Ball (cOlored) was struck in the
head with a bullet-not serious. Three
hundred stand OF rifles and the uniforms
of all the men of the regiment were de-
stroyed, as we'll as the equipment and
paraphernalia. except the tents. The
officers lost much OF their goods. Adju-
tant- General Axline estimates the loss to
the State at $4,000. Other local organi-
cations and drill corps had their uniforms
in the building. and lost the same.
The Ohio Poultry, Pigeon, Kennel,
and Pen Stock Association opened their
second annual exhibition at the arInory
Tuesday. There were displays from
nearly every State east OF the Mississippi.
The value of exhibits is estimated at
over $50. 900. All the poultry and pigeon
stock and nearly ali the dogs were con-
snmed. The famous Gordon setter
Royal Duke, owned by Walter Ham
nett of Philadelphia, valued at $40. 900,
broke his chain and got out. badly
singed. The only other dogs saved
were Champion, the English setter Of
Paul Gladstone, Of Pittsburgh, valued
at $40, 900, and two Irish settlers and a
pointer belonging to residents OF Co.
lumbus, which had been taken home last
night. Among the dogs burned was
Patti NJ, prize pointer bitch of Cleye-
land, which has taken prizes at all the
kenuol.shows and was valued at 81, 900.
In all over 800 dogs of Different breeds
were lost, composing the finest display
ever made in Ohio. Sir Charles, said To
be the finest specimen OF the st. Bernard
in America, owned by II. l.. Goodman,
OF Chicago, valued At $1,000, and the
whole Of the Alta Kennel, OF Toledo,
Ohio, composed Of ST. BerDards, were
burned. There were between 600 and
500 entries in poultry, carrier pigeons,
eic,, from many States--all burned. The
catalogues and record OF prize-winners
were burned, which. makes detailed in
formation difficult to secure. The show
would have closed TO night.

cessive tariff taxation in North Carolina.
There was cause for complaint against
each, but there was far more complaint
rs TO the method OF internal taxation
than there was 10 the amount. Why, he
asked, should not the excise tax be- re-
pealed greatly modified The exigency
which called it into existence had long
since passed away. II involved the right OF
a man to do what he pleased with his
own within the bounds of the law Of
liberty it involved the right of farmer
10 sell the prodnct of his labor TO any
purchaser who offered the best price 1t
involved the right of husbandman to
utilize the fruit OF his orchard instead OF
leaving il to rot on the ground IL in
yolved the still more momentous question
whether the poor mans cabin should be
indeed his castle, protected by organic
law. or whether it might be ransacked
at any hour OF the day or night by
petty official, "dressed in little brief
authority, in search of tribute for an
overlooking Treasury. The people OF
North Carolina cared little or nothing
about the tax on spirits and tobacco
they would pay 1t cheerfully If they
could be spared the oppressive and vex-
atious methods and machinery of its col
lection. It was not question Gas was
often so triumphantly stated of choice
between free whiskey and free blankets,
because the duty on blankets was now
practically prohibitory, and they would
not he any cheaper if the excise on
whiskey was removed.
Mr.. Vance proceeded with much de-
tail to illustrate many Of the inconsistent
cies in the tariff, particularly as bearing
against articles consumed by the poor
and III favor of those consumed by the
rich. He declared that the central theory
of the tariff was iniquity and that be was
opposed to the whole thing out TO out. He
should not vote to put anything on the
free list the tax on which was pure reve-
nue.. He should strive earnestly to reduce
taxation on the necessaries OF life, and
he should discriminate in nothing except
against Injuries and in favor of the help
less and unprotected.
The resolution was laid aside, and then
the Blair educational bill was taken up
and q constitutional argument made
against it by Mr.. Gray.
During Mr.. Grays speech Messrs.
George and Blair frequently interiected
remarks and questions, and the remain
der of the session was occupied by de-
bate between these three gentlemen.
The bill went over as unfinished bust
ness, and the Senate at 4:35 adjourned
till Monday.
