News In General.

Boodler McGarigle's safe return to Chicago
was officially made possible. In an inter
view State Attorney Longenecker said:
The principal witness against McGarigle'
Mic Schneider, has allied himself with the
fugitive's friends, and is no longerin Illinois.
In the absence of vital evidence, l would be
satisfied to end the case by having Nc
Carlyle fined, provided of course that he
should return and enter a plea of guilty"
The states attorney seemed to think that q
fine of 81 900 would be about right.
A special to the San Francisco Examiner
from Ensenada, Lower California says the
startling and important discovery is report
cd to have been made that the boundary
line between California md Lower California
as fixed by the treaty of Guadalupe Hildal-
go, should be sixty miles south of the line
now recognized, and that therefore Ensena.
da and the alleged gold fields are within
United States territory. The error by which
the present boundary came into recogni-
ton is explained as follows: The treaty
prescribes that the boundary lines shall he
from the mouth of the Colorado west to the
Pacific coast. The English maps of that
time incorrectly marked the ella river as the
Colorado. The line was therefore drawn
from the mouth OF the ella west. Itshould
have been drawn sixty miles farther south
from the point where the Colorado empties
into the Gulf of California. If this be true

Washington Budget.

President Harrison received his first
months salary. 1t amounted to SO, 1888. Ss.
and was delivered to him in the form of O
treasury draft. 1t was for the month OF
March minus the first three days. Mr..
Cleveland received the presidents salary for
that portion of the month.
The state senate of Illinois by arising vote
passed a joint resolution endorsing the &C.
ton of President Harrison in nominating
the Hon. Robert T. Line DIN to be Minister
to England, and directing that an engrossed
copy of the resolution be forwarded to Hon.
james G: Blaine. The resolution was then
sent to the house. which also passed it by q
Ginning to vote.
Secretary Window is preparing to move
into the famous house he has rented from
Senator Sherman at Washington. 1t is the
old Stanton house at 1895 l street, in which
the great war secretary died, or. as some
suspect, committed suicide. 1t is spacious
and commanding in aspect, and fronts one
OF the finest of the smaller parks. 1t has
been d boarding house for some years, with
Senator Hoa us it's most distinguished
permanent boarder, and it's large rooms
and lofty walls made it p opular. If Mr..
VIiuoAu WlSnes 10 entertain neXU winter ne
will have plenty of room. The house is only
two doors from Senator Sherman's, and
several other senators live in the immediate
~neighborhood.
The president is causing q good deal of fan
noyance and chagrin among the politicians
at Washington by his candor in describing
the kind of men he wants and the kind OF
men he does not wan to appoint to Office.
To n 6o1ppofipn wh0 prooanfod tho poro NJ

pointment On account OF his poverty, the
president said quite sternly: You must
not come here TO ask me to make an APP
pointment for any such reason. l cannot
give an Office to this man simply because he
is poor. While I sympathize with him deep
ly, and know what it is to be poor myself,
and while l have seen the time when l would
have liked any Office that had a good salary
attached to it, l don't think it is proper to
usesuch arguments to secure appointments
in the public service"

to America,

In the White Book published at Berlin re-
specting Somoan matters, Prince Bismarck
refsrs to the arrest of Gallien, the English
man. by the German consul at Apia, for sug-
costing that Mataafa should write to Sir
George Gray, ex-governor of New Zealand,
rs to the course Samoans should pursue.
Ex-Gpv. Gray, who is held in great esteem
in the colonies, when asked respecting his
views by the Auckland Herald as to Samoa,
said: e@. e.. ,
1t would be far preferable to leave each Of
these island groups ithindependent govern
ments, settling all disputes among themselves
by arbitration, and guided, if possible, by a
commission of foreign powers. It is
clear that America is aiming at
this line Of policy, annexing non of
them herself, and doing her utmost
to preserve the peace of the Pacific. This
also is certain to be the policy of all the
English possessions in this part ofthe world.
America will eventually become the leader OF
the Anglo-saxon race, and will displace
England from the position she now holds.
being turned towards America as the power
that is likely to preserve the interests Of the
Anglo-Saxon race in the Pacific. without
herself annexing anything, or allowing 70 r
eigners to do SO. 1t is clear that the center
OF population q already done. 1t is there
fore unwise of England to neglect her inter-
ests in such q time Of emergency. The Unit
ed States does not need a standing army,
and consequently the whole resources Of the
people SO circumstance could be devoted
solely to the maintenance OF q navy which
would make the Ang1o-Saxon race absolute
masters Of the world.

The Mine a Girl Discovered.

Among the mines here is the Sun
set, which was discovered two years
ago By Miss Nina Ingraham, a step
daughter of Mr.. Meylette. Wander
ing out from camp one day, she re-
turned with a few specimens which
she had picked up. Her mother
deemed them worth Investigation,
and the same afternoon Miss Ingra-
ham went with her father in quest of
The place where she had found the
ores. Clambering up the side of q
cliff with the grace of a mountain
gazelle, she stopped down and mark
ed the spotjust as the sun was sink
ing behind the distant ridge Of the
Elk range. A"discoverystake"ha
been prepared, was Immediately set
up on the spot. Aboutffteen months
ago this claim was leased and bond
ed to the Gillespie Brothers, who at
once organized the Sunset Mining
company md began working it,

A Wonderful Oak.

There is a remarkable white oak
at Salem, N. J. 1t stands in the
burying-ground of the Society of
Friends. I can not learn that any
one knows it's age exactly, but it is
saidto be at least 200 years old. 1t
is a wonderful tree for it's size and
symmetry, andfor the great number
and spread of it's branches. 1t was
measured in 1884, and was then 80
feet high; the trunk was Is feet 4
inches in girth, andthe spread of the
branches was $50 feet in circumfer-
ence. The circle covered by them
was ia feet in diameter and it's area
10,207 square feet. I am indebted
to the courtesy of MI. H. NJ. Rumsey
for these meas urements.
To see this tree is well worthy a
s~ummerday's journeyfrom Philadel-
phia to Salem. Any such tree is a
credit to the townin which it stands.
It's existence indicates q degree of
civilization, an appreciation of the
beauty and majesty of noble trees,
which is by no means SO general in
our country as is desirable. In too
many places such insensibility and
vandalism prevail that no tree has
a chance to attain to imposing pro-
portions, the beauty of complete
development, or the interest which
attaches to great age. I am sorry
to say that this fine tree has been
seriously injured within the last few
years,by neglect of the wounds made
by the removal of several large
branches. The large cut of surfaces
are exposed to the weather and to
the attack of enemies of all kinds,
without any protection whatever.
They should have been covered at
once with thick coat of coal-tar
or paint, While unshielded they in
vite the entrance of the spores of
various fungi, or toad-stools, which
will ultimately destroy the tree.
Their mycelium is q perennial
growth, and spreads through the
sound wood until the entire tree is
%inoculated with a fatal disease. 1t
is probable that, in a few years, this
grand tree will begin to show symp-
toms of decay. ~ y

stories finally broke down and confessed
that she had been criminally intimate with
Rowland. When Clemens came home he
found the door locked. He wat admitted
by his wife who had concealed Rowland in q
rear room. Rowland. seeing he was dis
covered, came from the rear DON toward

Horrible Crime In Canada.

w. A. Harvey, bookkeeper for J. W. Lyon
and at one time ON accountant for E. R. C..
Clarkson of Toronto, was arrested for en-
bezzling s., 900 from his employer. He was
shortly afterwards bailed out by Mr.. Lett.
During the forenoon Harvey purchased O re-
volver, but what use he vas to make of the
weapon was not dreamed of till the after
Don when for some reason the chief of po-
lice visited Harvey's residence. The chief
found the house locked, but by raising a
window at the back of the house he made
He passed the kitchen and dining and sit
ting rooms, looked Tito the parlor, and
then went upstairs, where the first object he
saw was Harvey's fair-haired daughter of
twelve or thirteen years lying on the floor of
the front bedroom, with her head in a pool
of blood.
A bloody hole in her head told the means
by which she had met her death. Thu chief
raised the dead child's head from it's cramped
position and laid it on a pillow. He then
passed through the upper hall and in a back
bed room found Harvey's Oldest daughter
lying beside a bed, also dead. The chief
went down stairs, and IN o clothes of
the kitchen he found Mrs. Harvey stretched
at full length, with a similar bullet wound.

Foreign lettings.

An enormous crowd assembled at the
church of San Carlo in Rome to hear the
famous preacher, Father Agostino. Several
person insulted the preacher n q riot en-
sued. Many arrests were made.
Count Hoyos, the trusted friend of the late
Crown Prince Rudolph, issaid to have fought
a duel with and shot Count B~altazze, the
uncle of the late Baroness Vetzera, whose
death was associated with that of the crown
prince. The duel is said to have been fought
at q village in the south of France.
A vote was taken in executive session OF
the Senate on the nomination of Murat
Halstead as minister to Germany and he was
rejected. A motion to reconsider was enter
ed. The rejection was secured by the solid
Democratic vote and by four Republican
votes. The committee on foreign relations
favorably reported all the diplomatic nom.
nations, but in the case of Mr.. Halstead the
report was not unanimous. On a motion to
confirm his nomination the nays were in the
majority, Senators Teller, Plumb, Ingalls,,
Farwell and Cullom voting with the Demo-
Gratis. Mr.. Sherman moved to reconsider
the vote, and on that motion q long debate
ensued. :

Calendar of Casualties,

The steamer Ocotian foundered on Lake
Chapala near ~Guardalajara in Mexico. A
large excursion party was on board ut the
time. Fifty bodies have been recovered
from the wreck. Efforts are being made to
raise the steamer. when it is expected addi-
tional bodies will be found.
Notwithstanding the fact that the loss of
the Conserva Is largely accepted as estab-
lished among shipping men at New York.
Henry Kunhardt, whose cousin, Carl Kun
hardt, was a passenger on board, is as con-
fdent that the Conserva was not founde:ed.
Mr.. Kunhart thinks there must have been
account OF wreckage found, and from the
fact that the chairs and sofas found were
painted white, he believes them to have been
the Nanticake's rather than the Conserva's,
which were painted in colors.

Writing for the Eye and Ear.

From the N. Y. Tribune.
There is the greatest possible diff
ference between writing for the eye
and the ear, and the knowledge OF
this difference is one of the chief arts
of the dramatist. A sentence con-
tanning exactly the same words may
be written in two ways, both equal
" correct grammatically, but one
effective when spoken, while the
other will fall fat. Take as an in
stance the line:
"a mothers love is the holiest
thing on earth
Now, though. this sentiment
should again applause, the arrange
ments OF the sentence would nearly
always prevent it. If any attempt
were made to emphasize the end of
the line the result wonld be only
absurd. But let the words be in
verted thus: r.
"The, hottest thing on earth is a
mothers love-" and The accent can
be put where it is wanted on the
last two words, and applause would
be surely obtained.

The original Aston, says Joe How
ard, SO far as we know, although it
is fair to assume he had a father
somewhere, was a very humble ped
dler-saving, %grubbing, grasping,
penurious, misery, mean. Every
cent he made he held on to it until it
became a dollar, and every dollar
until it was a hundred; and then,
when land was cheap, with shrewd-
ness and common sense he put his
money in the earth; and the earth,
which must last so long as time en-
dures, lasts, and the present gener-
alton enjoy their "high life" by rea-
son of what was done in very Glow
life," and for no other reason.

LICENSE.

ut seems to mi" remarked one Of
our citizens the other day, "that
physicians are allowed extraordinary
license in the manner in which they
juggle with the welfare of their pa
TENTS"
"Now here is DR.. who was at
tending Mr.-up to the time of his
death, and if he treated him for one
thing he treated him for dozen differ
emit disorders. First the doctor said
pneumonia was the trouble; then it
was consumption. Then the patient
was dosed for heart trouble, and SO
on until just before he died it was as
certained that disease ofthe kidneys
was the real trouble, and that which
had been at first treated as pneumo-
MIA, consumption; heart disease, ETC.,
were but the symptoms of the kid
ney disease.
"But then it was too late.
"This is only one case in a hum
dred. and I am beginning to lose
faith in the doctors altogether. In
fact I haven't had any need for their
service since I began to keep War
ner's Safe Cure in my house, a little
over three years ago. Whenever feel
alittle out of sorts I take few doses
of it, confident that the source of all
disease is in the kidneys, which l
know Warmers Safe Cure will keep in
good order, and will eradicate any
dieease that may be lurking there.
Had Mr.. - followed a similar
course, I have no doubt that he
would be alive to-day; but of course
all people don't think alike.
Zone thing is certain, however, and
this is the doctors are allowed a lit
tie too much freedom in the way they
have of pretending to know that
which they really know nothing
about. If they don't know what is
the real trouble with the patient,
they should admit it and not go on
and experiment at the cost Of the
patients life."

But few negroes carry life insurance

But few negroes carry life insurance
policies. Why? In the first place
the pure negro is not SO long lived
as the white man, and the admix-
ture of white blood seems to de-
crease his chances of longevity still
further. Another reason is that ne
groes are unable to give
family history as white men are;
They cannot tell, as rule, how their
parents died or what, ifany, disease
existed in their families. Ten years
ago a Massachusetts Insurance Co.
discovered that the mortality among
it's colored policy holders was about
twice as great as among the whites,
and this observation has been cor
roborated by that of other COM
panies, with the result of discouragg-
ing this class Of risks.
