When Bruce entered the bakery yesterday
morning Hacker sprang on him with q Ratchet
and long knife. He struck Bruce about the
eye with the sharp edge of the Ratchet and On
the head with the blunt side. Then he crowded
his victim against the wall and deliberately
plunged the dagger nine times into Bruce
neck and face. Bruce's wife came to his Aid.

JuRIEs.-Yesterday afternoon, in the Criminal
Court, VIM. Woodey. q colored boy, was con-
victed of larceny from the person in snatching
the satchel Of Mrs. Hobbs on August 10 last.
This being the first trial of the present term.
and number Of the Jurors never having served
before, the jurors were instructed with some
detail by Judge Montgomery. In the course
Of his remarks he said that he had heard out
side Of the District that it was difficult to OBJ
tain fair and impartial jury here; but he had
been agreeably surprised. The jurIes here in
his experience, were as fair as he had ever
met.

See MARRIED THE DRuMMER.-Miss Kitty,
daughter of E. p. Everest, Of Atchison, Kan,
one Of the general counsel of the Missouri Pa
cific, probably the most prominent lawyer in
Kansas, whose wealth is estimated close on to Q
million, was married in Kansas City, No., last
Saturday to E. B. Fairfield, young travelling
man for Boston tea house. It was runaway
match. Miss Everest met young Fairfield
some years ago, and they had been in love ever
since. Mr.. Everest was greatly opposed TO the
match, and some time ago took his daughter
on an extended European trip and offered her
&l00. 600 in cash II she would give Fairchild up.
The girl stoutly declared that not even Q mill
ion dollars would cause her to change her
mind, and that only death would prevent her
marrying the man Of her choice. On his return
Mr.. Everest forbade Fairfield the house, but the
young people met and lcorresponded, and the
result was the marriage. What Mr.. Everest
win now do 10 uncertain.

DISTRICT AFFAIRS.
Quoting from the report Of the coast survey
is stated in brief the work done by that bureau,
among which is that unusually rapid progress
was made during the year in the detailed topo-
graphical survey of the District Of Columbia,
and that for the use Of the government in the
Potomac fats litigation, and for the sake of
preserving the record Of the early maps
already seriously injured by time. the survey
prepared and published an edition, in fac
simile, Of the original "L'Enfant Plan of the
city Of Washington C179l), and a reproduction
of the "L'Enfant Plan" with the obliterated
lines and faded colors restored; an edition Of
the "Dermot Map Of Washington 079S), and
an edition Of the king Plats' of Washington
QS03).
THE BUREAU OF ENGRAVING AND PRINTING.
In connection with the bureau Of engraving
and printing, the Secretary says: The great in
crease in the work Of the bureau during the
last two years has made IL necessary to increase
the number Of plate-printing presses operated
by steam power. The new presses have been
used to print the green backs of the silver Ger
| tihcates and United States notes and certain
| varieties Of internal-revenue stamps. Their
use has resulted in great economy Of expense
and room.

the construction Of a fre-proof building suit

Gen. Boulanger has received what in this

A POOR ARGUMENT.
TBlddetord Times.l


The Portland Express is not convinced
that secret ballot would mend election
methods in Maine. Indeed the Express
seems TO think that there Is not nucn u
mend. The latter opinion, While nattering
to Portland, To which no doubt the oDselVa-
ton OF the Exprt SIS is most confined, Is nol
shared by many persons who are III POSI-
ton &c know something Of political under.
currents at election times. The principal
objection stated by the Express to a secret
ballot is that 1t requires all mel
to vote 'as IL they were ashamed
to have their action known, or could
not be trusted to act honestly.
The objection is entirely specious. Men de-
not object to being sworn in court on the
ground that to take an oath implies tha
without that form they could not be trusted
to tell the truth. The position taken by the
Express,I carried to its logical conclusion
would make every law for the pratectlon o.
the person or property an insult to right
respecting cltlZens. who might argue that al
I they had no Intention Or desire TO violate TIL
rights Of others, it was an insult tU cove
them with the same law as professional
criminals.
Laws are made for the good of all the pee
pie, and wnere wrong-dOlng can be prevent
ed by including all citizens under harmless
law which causes no honest man any incon
veniences, where is the objection? The maj
who goes hanting for offence to his dignit.
! is pretty sure to find 1t, but such super-sen
sitive mortals must put up with the sam
laws as the rest of us.

The attempted introduction of three new
names from the East into the Speakership
contest looks like an effort to divide Mr..
Reeds strength. The men selected, how
ever, have no intention of allowing them
selves 10 DC ueed for any such purpose. Mr..
Lodge says he sis strongly and unquaiifies'.-
for Mr. Reed, and should support ME-. heeu
heartily to the end.-~hicn, ne oeiieVeu,
would he section" Col Bayne, anoth-
ar-.etne gentlemen who have been brought
forward without either then knowledge or
consent, says he will under no circumstances
be candidate. Mr.. Farquhar said the
same thing, and added that he was inclined
to support Mr.. Reed. So this attempt to
divide Mr.. Reeds strength has proved a com
plete failure. Its chief significance lies in
the fact that ii amounts pretty nearly to a
practical concession on the part of his oppo-
nents that unless his support can be broken
by new candidates he Is sure to win.
