BosToS, June 23.-Forty years ago a
German pedler was murdered between
North Haverhill and Benton, In Northern
New Hampshire. No trace Of the body
was ever found and the murder was only
inferred from the fact that the peddler's
horse and cart were found In the woods
by the roadside with the boxes riiied of
their contents. Ten years afterward the
bones OF a human being were uncovered
by workmen plowing near where the
team had been found. Suspicion focused
on Alexander NJ. Greenough, a young
farmer of the vicinity, but no action was
taken, and he aftetward sold out and
left the region. He located in Cowans-
vile near Montreal, Canada, and turned
counterteiter. Then he went to Central

FOR THE NEWSPAPERS.
The POstoffice Departments Policy on
Special Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The post
Office department officials have re-
scinded an order issued during the
last administration having for it's
object the encouragement of the
practice by train men of carrying
special newspaper correspondence
and other matter on other than mail
trains. 1t is said at the department
that there are very large number
of small towns throughout the coun-
try which have meagre telegraph
facilities. In many of the villages
the post and telegraph offices close
early, and to prohibit train men
from carrying to the neighboring
town or city small packages con
tanning possibly information of the
highest general Importance is re-
garded as unwise and unjust.
The newspapers of the country, it
is maintained, should receive every
possible facility for obtaining and
disseminating the news of the day,
and to this end trainmen will be en-
couraged to lend their aid.

READY FOR THE RUSH.
Anxiously Waiting FOR the Hour when
They Can Take the Land-Eyery
Nan is Armed and Trouble
Il Feared-La
Sharks at
Work.

KANSAS CRY, April 19. The gath
ering rush Of people bound for Okla
homa was very apparent here last
night. Trains from all points were
crowded with would-be settlers, and
the Santa Fe road is rushing forward
all its available rolling stock for use
On its Indian Territory branches.
In one party of Missourians at the de-
pot to-day was a man who would
have been considered insane had it
not been for the trust and obedience
he exacted from his rather hardy
followers. He was tall, lank, dressed
in rough, worn clothing and had q
thin, shrewd face and scrubby chin
whiskers. Over his pantaloons, and
stuffed in at the top of his big jack
boots, he wore a sensational pair of
overhalls made of bunting, stamped
with small Americans flags. He
carried long, brown rifle of the an
Gent but accurate ball and pacth
pattern, and around his waist were
strapped brace of cannon calibred
nayies and large knife. The lead
ers name was Daniel CENTS, and his
little company had been organized
in Davis county, Mo. CENTS had
visited Oklahoma Il short time ago
and returned last week to escort his
friends. The company was most
thoroughly armed and will certainly
brighten the timid and provoke the
bold.
The land shark is on hand. One
concern with flaming banners is sell
ing town lots in Oklahoma City,
Texas, spot on the lap IF the Pan
Handle of Texas, touching the ives
tern tip of Oklahoma. These So
called lots are sold for 50 a piece,
with an additional charge of 81 forre-
cording the deed. Next door anoth-
er crowd is trying to dispose of lots
in the promising city of New Okla
homa, said to be twenty miles south
of the other, and pretending to be
upon a proposed line of railway.
The tooters of these two institutions
stand at their doors and loudly de-
nounce each other as frauds and i'm
posters. Both manage to ply good
trade.
Meanwhile the most rigid rules of
exclusion are being maintained in
the Territory. Yet there are rumors
rife that certain favored ones have
already been permitted to enter the
tract and are hidden near Guthrie
and other points of settlement This
will bear close investigation. Capt.
Cooper, who with Capt. Couch has
inherited the leadership vacated by
the original ''boomer' Payne, arrived
in the city last night to arrange for
the prompt movement of his trains.

They Need Not Apply.

The colored people have been pa
tiently waiting to see what reward
they would secure from the new ad-
ministration for their faithful SER
vice. They have been waiting in
vain, however, for not one of .Africa's
sons has received even a postoffice
appointment. The Philadelphia
Sentinel, colored organ, says:
"The colored man is to be left out in
the cold as far as the representative
positions are concerned, and he is to
fatten on the satisfaction ofknowing
that once more the grand old party
is in power to throw it's protecting
shield around him and to guard his
vote as specially designed instru-
ment to advance the fortunes of its
state and national leaders,
The Sentinel is right in this mat
ter. The colored people have al
ways been casting their vote for the
Republican candidates and they have
received nothing for it.
The Republicans love for the col
ored people is we'll shown by the fsl-
lowing incident: Frederick Doug
lass the colored orator and states
man, visited Jacksonville, Fla,
short time ago. The principal ho-
tells of that place are conducted by
northern Republicans and their pa
irons during the winter are almost
entirely from the north. A deleka-
ton of colorcd clergymen called upon.
the directors of one Of these hotels
to ask that Douglass be allowed to
quarter there during his stay at that
place. They were refused and Doug
lass was compelled to take up quar-
tiers at the residence of one of his
colored friends.
We notice q squib in an eastern
paper reading thus: John Wanna
maker wants the motto Of our conn-
try changed from Z 3 PIuribus Unum'
TO Come to Jesus."

WEANED FROM POKER,
A Student Going Through a Course Of
Sprouts to be Cured Of Gambling.

There is one student at Harvard
who is being put through a vigorous
course of sprouts to wean him from
the allurements of the gaming table.
His case is little different from the
ordinary career of would-be EAST"
young men in Hazard University.
His father is wealthy merchant in
Portsmouth, N. II. The young man
is the pride of his fathers heart, and
he was not stinted in the supply of
funds. He had not long been in
college before he became an inveter-
ate poker-pIayer. He yielded him
self to the charms of the seductive
game, regardless of his studies and
of his health. He played poker all
night and as much Of the day time
not spent under the eye Of the in
structor. His health began to break
down, several conditions were placed
against his name at the latest exam
nations, and he was rapidly becom-
ing wreck, mentally and ply sical-
ly. He realized his danger, but had
not the moral courage to turn his
back to the card table. His father
noticed his failing health, and called
him to account. The young man
confessed his weakness, and told his
father that he had done all in his
power to break off the habit. The
father and son are both enthusiastic
yachtmen, and the father owns fine
yacht, in which he passes good
part of the summer season. Know
ing his sons fondness for yachting
he promised the young man $40,-
600 yacht if he would only abandon
the card table and devote himself to
his studies. The son promised faith
fully that he would meyer touch a
card and for week he kept his word
But the good resolution died away
as rapidly as pile of chips when q
full house is being backed against a
strong hand, and in less than fort
night he was again a nightly partic-
ipator in poker party. He told his
father he need not order that yacht
on his account, for he preferred play
ing poker to sailing, even as owner
of forty Thousand dollar yacht
Then the father applied little
paternal authority to save his son.
He came to Boston and was soon
closeted with President Eliot. The
circumstances were soon explained,
and President Eliot concurred in the
action planned by his father. 1t
was arranged that the son should
return to Portsmouth every day af-
ter class work was finished, do his
studying beneath the paternal roof,
and take the first train for Boston in
the morning. That is what he is
doing now. In order to catch the
early train he rises at four o'clock ia
the morning, reaches Boston just in
time to reach class room, remains
at the college until the middle of the
afternoon, is excused from the class
room before the students, rushes into
Boston, and is whirled hack to Ports
mouth before he has time to think
of cards or poker or any other dis
sipatiop. Boston eos.. N. n Sun.

1t is reported as indicative of mod
Grafton that while Mr.. Wanamaker'
man Clarkson decapitated 200 DEM

on Monday he only guillotined 1877,

Political Probabilities in the New
States.

Republican machine leaders are
expert confidence men. They never
fail to "claim everything" They
boosted Of possessing fall the moral
NY ana virtue OF the nation" when
tney were putting on our country's
records stains that are almost indel-
IDLE. Neither before nor just after
an election do they ever fail to claim
as certain more than it 10 practical
bic for them to win. In that way
they cover all possible chances of
gain by the floating vote or count
that may be manipulated. This is
the spirit that has guided them in all
discussions about the new States.
They affect to rely on the entire list
OF eight new Senators and all the
new Representatives as confidently
as If their nominees had already been
elected.
This Republican bombast does
not bear scrutiny. The recent cleo
lions in Montana indicate the De-
mocracy is resuming it's old-time as

the temporary cxcitements and local

A MUSCULAR REVEREND.
Sensational Engagement In Cincin-
natl Female College.

CINCINNATI, O., April 19.--An cx-
citing scene was enacted last even
ing in the Wesleyan Female College
in this city, the leading actors being
the Rev. DR.. Brown, President Of the
college, and Signor Fabiani, the mu-
sic teacher. DIR. Brown had mad
vertently omitted to include in the
music teachers monthly check S.
expenses of trip made by Signor
Fabiani, and for this the music;
teacher became SO abusive and in
sailing that personal encounter
followed, in which Fabiani attacked
the Doctor in the hall and attempt
ed to drag him to the stairway, but
the Doctor proved the better man
and the music teacher was paid and
discharged. DR.. Brown is sixty
years old. Fabiani is about thirty
five.
