SAD CONDITION OF OUR RAILWAY

Our railway interest is the great.

its condition. By reason of ever

honest financiering, and reckless
management, it drifts like an over

terest, that the child is now born
who will see few if any of the roads
paying interest on their stocks
Does such a suggestion strike the
reader as absurd 7 Once upon a
time a foreign syndicate invested
twenty-five millions OF dollars in
what was very properly considered
our best and safest railroad stock,
on guarantee for certain number
years of eight per cent. per anuum.

A somewhat curious duel took place few
days ago at Kicheneff, the capital of the i'm
portant Russian province Of Bessarebia. A
gentleman OF the name of Paul Usakoff and
Prince Temariaf quarreled together about
some trivial matter ct the MOBILES club, 7" and
f1na,,y determined to settle their differences
by a duel. On the following morning
geon on the outskirts of the city and ek-
changed three shots apiece without doing any
injury to one another. On the following day
they again met, at the club, and after a short
conversation began to quarrel afresh with
increased vigo' Growing more and more
excited the dis ute at length degenerated into
a regular kicking and fisticuf struggle.
The prince who all along had been the
aggressor, WIS in the act of receiving a SOUND
and well des rived thrashing, when suddenly
the thin varnish of civilization gave way, and
all his innate and national barbarism getting
the upper hand, he flew with wild yell at
n. Usakoff, and, catching the latter's lower
lip between his teeth, bit it completely off.
1t is needless to add that that terminated the
fight NJ. Tsakoff is still confined to his bed.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, April PA large
number of delegates to the Democratic
day, have arrived, and with them came
the few candidates who had not put in an
appearance before The lobbies of all the
hotels and the headquarters Of candidate.
were crowded.
Myers and Matson, candidates for the
Governorship, Munson, Dougherty and
Brown for Auditor. Myers for Secretary,
Byrnes for Treasurer, GleSsner, Smith and
Wilson for Attorney General, and French
and Griffith for Superintendent of Public
Institutions, were all on hand In the
race for the Governorship, Matson is
steadily rising in favor. He has number
of the best politicians in the State working
for him, and the Myers men concede that
he will be stronger opponent than they
had expected.
A caucus of the friends of eI-Congress-
man Cobb was held last night, and it was
determined to present his name for Cover
nor. Vanderburg and Posey counties will
present the name of Judge Black for the
same position, and il is now certain that
Boone county will present Bynun.
As the delegates continne to arrive the
conviction is becoming stronger that there
will be deadlock in the conven ton.
For several campaigns the party ha,
selected tie nominee for Lieutenant Gov
ernor from the defeated gubernatorial as
pirants and this fact has deferred every one
from seeking a second place upon the
ticket. Within the past two days many
leading Democrats have been trying to per-
suade John E. Sullivan not to stand for
National delegate, but he positively refuses
to withdraw from the race. He succeeded
in gaining pledges from number of the
delegates of the district and thou h under
indictment in the conspiracy cases, there Is
fear that he may be selected As one of the
national delegates.

We heard a rather illustrative story lately
from one of our neighboring factory towns
An old fashioned Yankee of Quaker stock
who ran small shoe factory, indulged in a
theory that nothing could pry out of his
mind that moral wrong was somehow per-
petrated upon the community at large if a
woman were allowed to earn above a stipu-
lated sum each week. As his help was paid
by the piece, and he had to keep tally in the
main with current prices, he found this
rather hard to manage at times The swift
ness of one young woman especially troubled
him greatly. She would persist in running
financially ahead of Others. At last he made
a special cut down in her prices, and told her
why he did it. She gave him a baleful
glance, frightened her lips, and went on work
ing By Saturday night next, despite the
cut down, she made ten cents above the week
before. Another week went by, when he cut
her down still more. The dansel still proved
game and rose TO the occasion. After week
or more the Quaker conscience grew scared
and asked her what she meant. ''It means =
said the girl, ''that you may keep on and IN
keep on till you have cc-vse on your hands

SllClNG A CHINkMAN.
A Well Known San Francisco Mongolian
to Suffer a Horrible Death.

SAN Francisco. CAL. April 25.-Advices
received yesterday by members of the
Chinese colony. are to the effect that unless
executive clemency is manifested, Chang
Tsee- Yin-Tyn, well known among his fel-
low countrymen here, will on Friday next
be put to death by the horrible process
known as ''slicinS." The method en-
ployed is to fasten the miserable offender to
an upright stake, securely fasten his hands
and feet, and slowly slice portions of flesh
from the different parts of the body until
death puts an end to the sufferings.
At first the pieces sliced are small por-
tions from the arm. another from the leg,
then finger, or perhaps an ear, then the
breast is sliced until the vital parts are
reached. As u method of torture it is in
describable, the time elapsing before death
intervenes running from three to six hours.
Chang was member of the Chinese colony
here, some years ago, but returned to his
native country in 1850. His crime was the
poisoning of a cousin, who refused to lend
him money. Not only was the cousin
killed by the drug but five other members
of the family also died from its effect
