lack Taylor, one of the six per
sons indicted for the murder of Will
liam McCausland, who was murder
ed in Cumberland township, Septem-
Der 10, 1887, is the second one to be
put ON trial for this most atrocious
murder. The tedious and difficult
task of selecting jury was com
menced Tuesday, and when court adj
journed that day but five had been
secured.
lack Taylor is resident of Ma
sontown, Fayette county. and is aged
about 50 years. He is married and
has several children. On the day
McCansland was murdered Mr. John
Parker, who was an important wit
ness in the trial of George Clark,
who has been convicted for the same
crime, says he saw "Clark and man
he believed to be lack Taylor" run
ming down the ravine leading from
the scene Of the murder, going in the
direction of the river. Jacob Prov
ms, the ferryman, swore he saw
Clark and lack Taylor cross the
river the same day and go toward
Masontown, their home. This is
the substance of the evidence given
by the two witnesses at the trial OF
George Clark that has a bearing in
the trial of lack Taylor. We un-
derstand that new evidence will be
presented in this trial. but as to its
character we are not Mapprised.-
Doubtless Ben Clark, one of the par
ties indicted, and who voluntarily
made n statement to w. L. Webb,
Esq, in the presence of several per
sons, which statement was reduced
to writing and sworn to by Clark,
will be put on the stand. His evil
dence will be awaited with no small
degree of interest. Ben also made a
statement to Capt. J. Z. Sayers.-
Taylor is ably represented at the bar
by Capt. James E. Sayers, who is as
sisted by Thomas L. Lincoln, Esq.
District Attorney Huss is assisted
by Robert F. Downey, Esq, Of this
place, and w. S. Anderson, Esq, Of
Youngstown, Ohio. Mr.. Anderson
has had considerable experience in
criminal cases, and is said to be very
shrewd in examining witness, and
is fine speaker.
One hundred and eighty witnesses
have been summoned, ITO Of whom
are for the defense. If all these wit
nesses appear and are examined, il
will make the case long and tedious

and far east. According to L'Illustra-
ton, the Paris pictorial, the country
has advanced as rapidly since the French
occupation as any in the world, and the
Anamite section of the exposition proves
as much. Anam as whole contains
some 100000 square miles and 100000
people, and though the French own but
a small part of it, their influenceis great
in all sections. There is, great progress
in the arts Of civilized life, trade is in
crcasing and Christianity is tolerated
throughout the country. The Anamites
Mt Paris, however, are heather, and, ac-
cepting the Partisan view Of it, their
heathenism isn't a very nice kind.
In the fine arts the exposition is a
world in itself, and column might be
filled simply with the names Of the paint.
ers whose works appear There has beer
steady and tolerably rapid increase
from the start in the number of visitors
and by the last estimate Paris had 400,
900 people more than her resident popu
lation. All that number, say the man
ayers, could easily be entertained in thu
grounds at one time without discomfort

Well, the Paris exposition develops
unexpected beauties, and certain sections
of it are SO complete that on any other
occasion they would be expositions in
themselves. Thus one enthusiastic re-
porter has devoted many days together
to the department Of Java and adjacent
regions, and finds new curios and beauties
at every turn. He finds those supposed
semi -barbarians wonderfully expert in
manipulating plaits, making screens,
flags, mats baskets and many more arti-
cles out of flags, rushes, rattan, bamboo
and native grasses. The economy in com
mon life displayed by some of the Malay
races is quite surprising. Their cooking,
their choice of the most nourishing food
and adaptation Of clothing to Its proper
purpose excite admiration. Even their
weapons, which seem at first SO awkward
and antiquated, are found well adapted
to their situation, and one no longer
wonders that the Dutch had such diff
cult task to get control Of the island.
Another explorer has taken Anam or
Cochin China for his province, and his
report almost makes an American
ashamed that so little is known on this
side of the great work the French are
doing among many peoples of the south

than it is really worth. The common
people Of Paris are "band Of brothers"
when it comes to settling with the for
eigner; no matter whom the latter ap-
peals to, all will swear that the bill Is
ruinously low and according to the orig
inal contract. They have a byword
which may be thus rendered: keep the
money in Paris-if it knocks about long
enough it will come to me-" The great
crowd, too, enables the drivers to snare
the unwary. ILLUSTRATION has carl
cature representing a jocular and half
tipsy driver with badly demoralized
American and his wife in an open car
riage, the driver saying:
s'No room at the Terminus hotel, none
at the Continental, not even breathing
space at the Grand hotel; it only re-
mains for me to take you to the Hotel
Dieu (hospitaD, and must make rush,
too, so they will take you at once, with
out question, as an urgent case" M
The question as to whether the impe-
rial governments would patronize the
exposition is no longer question-as
governments they are letting it severely
alone. Russians, Austrians and Ger
mans, few individuals Of them, are
there, and England is, of course, splen-
didly represented. as she never allows
politics to interfere with business
Japan is there, however, and in truly
gorgeous style, some Of the Japanese
productions in the way Of grouping flow

In conclusion, though the exposition
grows in study, it can only be repeated
that it is great rather as a show, q dis
play of fine things and curious people,
than as collection of the useful

the charming mistress Of the White
House. She seemed to possess one Of
those rare intellects which combine mas
culine force and directness with femi-
nine delicacy and tact, and with it was
a charity for opponents rarely attained
by man or woman. Her refusal to per-
NIT wine to be served on the White
House table excited some criticism, but
her conscientiousness in the matter was
universally acknowledged, and she re-
ceived many encomiums and testimo-
malls from temperance people in both

Lucy Ware Webb was born in 1888, in

physician, and was married to Mr.. Hayes
Dec. 80, 1862. Their domestic life was
singularly quiet and happy until the
beginning Of the civil war-the date
when so many lives were changed. Mrs.
Hayes engaged in the work Of aiding her
husband in his military career and in
serving sick and wounded soldiers with
all the ardor Of an affectionate, talented
and patriotic woman. Whenever posi-
BILE she remained with her husband in
camp, and many anecdotes, amusing as
well as affecting, are told Of the happy
influence she exercised there.

noting is the rarity of crimes. Either
mankind have grown a great deal better,
