cessfulIy in Siskiyou.
News has been received of the robbine a
few nights ago of the stage which runs be-
tween -Alger and Linkville in Siskiyou
county. a lone highwayman held up the
stage about half way between the two
places mentioned, and ordered the driver
to throw out the Wells Fargo treasure boxes.
The latter did so, and at the request of the
road agent he gave him an ak, with
which he broke open the boxes and took
all the treasure in them, prefacing his work
with the Fadmouition to the driver not to
stir or speak, or he would blow his brains
out. After he got the coin out of the boxes
the robber interviewed the passengers and
got 81 from one man. The robber asktd
him if he had any money, to which the
passenger replied, "a dollar or two."
Then" said the young "Black Bart "dig
it up" He gave him the 81, but kept $500
in gold which he had in his purse, the
silver being lose in his pocket.
The robber had no mask on and is repre-
sented as being a young man. 1t is sup
posed he had one or more confederates in
the brush, armed and ready to shoot the
driver or passengers if they resisted.
A telegram from Washington states that
the Postoffice authorities have offered re
ward of 81, 900 for the arrest and conviction
of the robber

IF the shipping leagues really meant to
do anything for the public good. If they
could turn their avaricious eyes away
from the contemplation Of subsidies for
their own selfish purpose they might
secure an appropriation TO repair the
Delaware Breakwater. While they
are seeking subsidies which will flow
directly into their capacious pockets they
might do something for the benefit Of the
public. The Philadelphia Telegraph
says
The Delaware BrealSwater Is relegated
TO the background with an estimate Of
5000 600, about enough to repair damages
caused by the recent storms II any one
thing has been demonstrated by the ter

adequate to meet the growing demands Of

Particulars Of the Death OF Young Miss
Meredith at Petersburg.


Meredith at Petersburg.
Special correspondence EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del, Oct. 1S.-The particulars
in regard to the suicide Of young Miss
Meredith Of Petersburg, which was
briefly wired to the EVENING JOURNAL
yesterday, are hard to obtain, but from
what can be CLEANED 1t appears that the
young lady was subject to fits Of melar
cholia, and that on one occasion at laast,
some months ago while in this condition,
she had attempted to take her life. The
watchfulness Of her friends frustrated
her designs on this occasion, and she
was afterwards closely watched,
but her apparent cheerfulness during the
past few weeks caused relaxation OF
this vigilance. On Wednesday evening
she weRt to the barn alone and had not
been gone above half an hour when a
friend discovered her body, She had
evidently carefully prepared for the deed
MS she had clandestinely removed her
fathers shot gun from the house to the
barn. When found the empty gun lay
beside her and the fact that the entire
upper portion of her head was blown of
indicates that she placed the muzzle in
her month and sprang the trigger with
her foot.
JACOB Meredith. her father, is a promi-
nent and well-known farmer and much
sympathy is expressed for him.
The Grand Lodge of Good Templars

THE different receptions which the
letters Of Cleveland and Randall met
with in Philadelphia is justified
by the qualities OF the letters. Mr.
Cleveland wrote strong, hopeful, out
spoken letter in favor OF Democratic
principles. He said
We as a party are fairly enlisted in the
cause of the people and patriotism; duty
and party success require that we should
be consistent and steadfast. All personal
and selfish aims should be ssbordinated.
Mr.. Randall hoped that the convention
would be successful He was evidently
unwilling to commit himself further than
that Worse than that he made it con
venient to be away Under these oondi-
tions it is not strange that Randall's let
ter was Missed and Cleveland's was ap-

NEWSPAPERS, like politicians, which
straddle question, are likely to be in
consistent Even the wise and good
PHILADELPHIA Ledger is not proof against
this fault Commenting on the devotion
and eloquence exhibited by the members
Of the Democratic convention as being
all the more crsditable after "Their
overwhelming defeat at the polls last
November The Ledger says Of Mr..
Cleveland
The majority Of his country men, as
represented by the Electoral College, not
by the popular vote. differed with him
regarding tariff revision.
Now how could tariff revision have
sustained Overwhelming defeat at the
polls when Cleveland was defeated by
the Electoral College voter These
contradictory statements in the
same editorial cannot be accounted
for except that the first statement
proceeded from Republicanism, which
is not necessarily truthful, and that the
second statement is Mugwumpry, which
is Republicanism still retaining some
reason and some regard for truth. The
truth is that the popular vote
was 00,000 Ia favor Of tariff
reform and Cleveland, Naturally
the Democrats feel enthusiastic when
they have the popular majority and when
they know that Indiana and New York
are naturally Democratic states. and
would not have cast Electoral votes for
Harrison and Morton except for reasons
which are disgraceful to the Republicans
and discreditable to the country.
