For absent mindedless a citizen OF
Bangor, Me-, certainly is entitled to the
wreath. Not long since he severely Injured
one OF his fingers and was advised to
pouItIce it. He prepared a pouItice and ap-
piled 1t carefully to the diseased member
and then went abont his business as usual
Soon, however, the finger began TO pain
him In an unusually severe manner, and be
could not account for it until be made
close examination OF his hand, took hold of
the member that panied him, when he found
that the poutice was on the wrong finger.
The Pennsylvania Fish Commission met
in Harrisburg on Saturday to take action
on the large number of applications that
have been received for carp and trout. 1t
was determined TO buy carp sufficient to
fill all applications. The limit of trout
was fixed at 2. 1000 for each applicant, and
the Secretary was instructed to correspond
with the katchiDg houses and learn how
many trout are on hand with view to pro
rata distribution in the different parts OF
the State. A resolution was adopted in
structing :he Secretary to instruct market
masters to keep a close watch on the mar
kets and arrest people who sell fish ont CT

A shocking story OF debauchery and
the execution OF popular vengeance comes
from Bluffton, Georgia. A white woman
whose name is not given. had become inti-
mate with negro named Aaron Dlckey,
well known as a desperate. A party OF
young men seeing the negro enter the
woman's s house waited until midnight, when
they broke in and found the couple as sus-
pected. DickeY stoutly resisted, ba. the
young men pressed closely around him and
soon bound him. They took him out TO a
tree, to which they tied him The men
welted Dickey's back with a whip until the
blood came From cursIng the negro turn
ed to pleading for mercy. but without avail.
The vigilants told him he would not live TO
zee daylight. When one detail would
weary in the work OF lashlng it would be
relieved bY another. AS day began to
dawn the men disappeared, but Dickyy died
from the thrashing.

week asking him to take g second sober
thought over the matter and permit his
name TO be used a. the Chicago conven-
rion. In his reply Mr.. Conkling repeats
his former decliration in mild, but most
emphatic terms. The man who be-
lieves that either Blaine or C1ukliug
could carry New York is simply q po-
sonal following that defeated Blaine In
that S.ate in 1884, and as the ancient
feud between the CoukIing and the
Blaine men still exists, it would do so
again If Blaine was = candidate Does
any sane man believe, on the ether hand

Germany's Dead Emperor.

BERLIN, March 9.-EnPeror Will
liam breathed his last az precisely s 80
thi. morning. Eye witnesses OF the
scenes At the death bed 81 ate that during
the last few hours OF his life the Empe
rOr suffered no pain. Shortly after
S o'clock AL the members OF the family
staying At the Palace, the court digpi-
taries, Generals and Ministers OF State
were summoned To the chamber in
which the Emperor lay dying. The
Emperor was IN half sitting position
on a mp-oedstead. All the members
of the royal family took places at the
bedside. The room was crowded.
Prince William stood nearest The En-
peIor, half bending over the couch. He
earneItly watched the face OF the diving
monarch until he expired. The Empe-
TOR died holding the Empress py the
hand. He hao been in stupor since

period A. O'Clock, during which he is
reported TO have exclaimed Il am a
man OF peace, but IL Russis force. me
to war L shall faithfully side with my
ally. Austria"
The Emperor will be buried in the
mauso!eum at Charilottenburg. The
remains lie covered with a white cloth
on the bedstead on which he died in the

sry chamber tonight. The cathedral

HENRY BERG, the weIl-known friend
OF dumb animals, died Unexpectedly in
the city OF New York, where he was
born sixty five years ago, on Monday
Iast. In 1868. and for some time subse-
quently, he held the position of Secreta-
ry of Legislation at ST. Petersburg. and
on his return to this country in 1866 he
organized the society for the Prevention
OF Cruelty to animals IN connection
with which his name has since become
so well-known, and to the success or
which he devoted not only a very con-
siderable private fortune, but all his
time and talent. He was an enthusiast
on the subject of protecting animals
from mans cruelty, and he lived long
enough to know that his forts on be-
half Of the dumb brute had been crown
ed with so much success. He was a
pioneer in humane cause and has left
a legacy behind him of which any man
nigh, we'll feel proud.

THERE is a wide difference between
the tariff bill which has been submitted
by Mr. Randall and the bill prepared
by a majority OF the committee OF Ways
and Means. Tha Randall plan proposes
to take $40 600, 600 off the Sl2O, ,OOO, 600
Of internal taxes, while the bill of the
committee takes off only $50 900, 900.
Toe latter bill, on the other hand, takes
off Sj2 10000 from the S217 900, 900
custom house taxes while Rlndall's
bill takes of only $4,000, 900. The
Randall bill abolishes The tobacco tax
entirely. reduces the whiskey tax from
30 cents a gallon TO 80 cents, and does
away with all taxes on spirits made
from fruit or used in the arts and man
ufactures. Congress will never consent
to reduce the tax on whiskey and that
is the rock against which Mr.. RIndall's s
tariff boat will be dashed TO pieces.

Brooks Law IitfEatfou.

One OF the most important cases tried last
week before the Lehigh coarty courts was
that OF Reuben Semnel VS.. the county OF
Lehigh. Semmel has for MANY years been
constable of North White Hall township,
and susd TO recover fees and mileage for
making monthly visits to places where
liquor is sold, as required by the Brooks
high license law. The constables Of the
county last fail formed a league, having for
its object the securing OF compensation for
making monthly visits TO ell places where
liquor is sold. In October Semmel brought
suit against the county for fee OF 81 80 for
each tour OF Inspection and mileage. Sem
mel's district is the largest in the county,
and for this reason he was selected 20 test
the case. On each tour he covers twenty
five miles, and be claimed that I'm addition
to the fee OF 81 50 he was entitled to six
cents per mile, or S1.JO more, making his
compensation for each month three dollars
Judge Albright told the jury that the fee
bill OF 1883 entitled cOpstables TO fees for
certain duties and since the duties of these
officials embraced in the high license law
were compulsory they were entitled TO fee
of q 80 and mileage. He directed the jary
TO render a verdict in Mr.. SemmePs favor
for twelve Collars In payment for his ser
vices for four months. TIE commissioner

a new trial be refused it is altogether likely
