Washington Special to Troy (N. W Times.
There is hitch in the work of construct
ing the armored battle-ship Texas at the
Norfolk navy-yard. The order to build the
craft was given in 1887. but practically
nothing has been done, owing to the fact
that the new ship building plant put in the
yard is inadequate to the task. Among the
machinery was set of rolls. costing SIS, 900,
with which to bend the plates for the new
vessel, but as the rolls are only sixteen feet
six inches in length, while every plate in
the vessel is to be twenty feet long. they
are useless, and to have a new set made
would take at least six months. New rolls
must be purchased or the plan of the ship
changed. 1t will be remembered that
under the late Democratic administration
plans were secured from England, and sew
eral bad balks were the result. In fact,
the Navy Departments most successful
work was completing the ships designed
under Republican auspices. 1t looks as
though great deal of Republican thunder
had been stolen by the Democratic authori-
ties in the matter of building up the navy.

JdmeetOWn tfa-) news
Natural gas has artifcially prolonged the
existence of the fly. In the days of old,
when the nights were cold, there being no
gas fires, the last fly of summer smoothed
down his little coat-tails, rolled up bis
trunk and fell over on his back after the
first few frosts. Now the fly, like the man
who wants small loan, is always with u.s.
He basks in continual warmth all winter
but there are precious few of him. The
average happy home. where gas bills come
as regularly as the new moon, will have
trouble in soaring up moro than three live
flies on Valentines day. Whether the
February fly lasts until the young mans
fancy lightly turns to thoughts of spring
suits is q question for scientists to tackle
We simply want TO go on record as saying
that where natural gas prevails and no tab
is kept on the consumption, it is possible by
the expenditure of from S12 to $50 to pre-
serve the life of fly all winter and keep
the household warm at the same time.
When we can see fly twiddling his hind
legs and rubbing his ears on Feb. %, we are
convinced that he will live in great and
growing age.

A Noted Convict Whose Disappearance from

Old Buck Mckinney was at one time
the most famed convict who ever served a
term in the Indiana State Prison South at
Jacksonville. He was there on life sem
tence for accidently killing a man at
Columbus, Ind. For number of years

melee during which he, attempted
to shoot one. man whom he con-
wide Of its mark and struck another man,
who was not in the fight, infiictinga mortal
wound. Seeing what he had done, McKin-
ney made the remark that it was all the
same to him whether he killed one man or
another, as he was after ali of them. This
was, to large extent, what convicted him.
He was sent to the prison In 1855. and re-
manned there until 1876. twenty-one years,
when he was pardoned by Governor Hen
bricks about the time he retired from office.
Shuler Kinney was allowed to conduct
little stand, just inside from the main en-
trance, from which he sold prison relics,
cigars, tobacco, candy and other small ar
siderable amount of money, great deal of
which he expended in endeavOring to gain
his liberty.
After his release he returned to Column
bus. and would frequently make trips to
JeffersOville, where he had a large acquaint-
ance. The visits stopped, and Mckinney
dropped out of recollection. Last night X.
p. Diffenderfer was in Jeffersonyille on a
visit to his father, and, during the course of

made what had become of him. Mr.. Diffen-

reached. When the train left that place he
was missed, and his absence was comment
ed upon, it being supposed that he got off
for some purpose and had failed to get
aboard again, being left behind. From
that day to this Buck Mckinney has never
been seen, and it is almost certain that he
is dead. The theory accepted is that before
reaching Cambridge City he became de-
rather than 90 to the Soldiers Home, which
by HIM was considered little better than
the prison in which he had spent good
portion of his life. To that end, it is be-
1ieved, he made his way to a stream near
the place, into which he threw himself and
left no tidings behind. If his body was
ever found, no one knows it."

Trade I'm Furope.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Consul General
Waller at London, in a report to the depart
ment of state, says there has been a general re-
vival of the trade and commerce of the United
Kingdom. The returns, he says, clearly show
a decided improvement in both the volume and
character Of the business done in 1888 over the
previous year, and this increased prosperity,
which promises TO continue, is not confined 10
any particular industry. IL is apparently due
to legitimate trade and not 10 speculation. The
improvement in business is especially notable
in the shipbuilding industry.
Mr.. Rufus Magee, the L. 5. minister TO Swe-
den says: There has been decrease. both
in quality and quantity OF agricultural prod
ucts during 1883, while prices are higher than
in the ten years preceding that Of 1888" The
enhanced price, Mr.. Magee says, is due to the
tariffla enacted last winter.

forth. 81 couldn't have believed he could
have done anything SO bad"
Lies about Duncan ?" she asked. "And
how do you know they are lies?'
Not about Duncan-about father. Au-
drey, do you think it possible that our
father was a swindling speculator and
that he died bankrupt"
Il never heard it before" said Audrey,
composedly. "But we know so little about
him that IL might be possible. Railway
folks do speculate and swindle sometimes,
and fall bankrupt, don't they"
"Oh, Audrey, how can you talk so !
Cyril knows nothing of this, am sure. 1
won't believe it unless some one else tells
it me-" And L repeated the whole tale to
Audrey.
II don't see why it shouldn't be true"
she said at the end. "Of course Uncle
Andrew wouldn't talk about it unneces-
sarily, and as it all happened in America
nearly twenty years ago, why should
Cyril, who is only thirty, know about it =?
And so. she added, "he has knocked your
engagement on the head.
That he hasn't. He has only con-
cocted this story to get out of parting with
any of the money, which has been in his
hands so long that he looks on it as his
own. He thinks two girls like us will be-
lieve anything, and he knows we have no
remedy. He cares for nothing but
money"
"Well, and how is it to be with your en-
gagement? 1 suppose you will have to
wait till Duncan is little better off"
81 shall not do any such thing, nor will
Duncan wish to. If Uncle Andrew thinks
he can spoil this happiness for me he is
mistaken"
you will be a fool to defy him. OF
course he will be perfectly justified in do
ing nothing for you if you do defy him" 4"
Il would be bigger fool if 1 made
Duncan and myself miserable in defer
ence TO him; and as to doing anything for
me, tell you l don't believe that story
about our father; and what he finds a
good excuse for shirking now he would
always try TO shirk-that is, he'll never
part with his precious thousands till he
dies. and then most likely he will be-
queath them for the building of some hos
pital, so that his name may be handed
down as that of public benefactor."
''Sylvia," returned Audrey, lit is no use
reasoning with you. You will have your
own way, | know. All can say is that |,
in your place, should be guided by Uncle
Andrews wishes"
So the discussion ended, and a few
weeks afterward Duncan and were mar
ried very quietly at st. Pancras church,
Cyril Holmes gave me away, but Audrey
did not come TO the wedding. She did not
even ask me what o'clock it was to be.

to hear that Cyril did not lose Audrey

AMUSEM ENTS,

A large audience greeted the first per-
formance of the reproduction of the home
opera, ''Mr. Sampson of Omaha" which
took place at the Grand opera house, last
night. The audience was demonstrative, but
bestowed its favors with more than usual
discrimination. Some changes have been
made in the cast which appeared in the
original production Of the piece, and in many
instances the changes may be commended.
The chorus is larger, more picturesque III
grouping and attire than it was originally,
and seems to grasp the idea of its introduce
tlon much more firmly than did its prede-
cessor. More pain, also, appears to have
been taken III setting the piece, cir
cumstance which contributes greatly to
Its success There is not an obJec-
tionable voice among the principals. Messrs.
Brigham, Young. Deuel. and Barton received
recalls as did also Mrs. Martin Calm and
Miss Bertha Baylies. The singing OF the
chorus was excellent. The perts seem to
have been nicely balanced. and the beautiful
choruses as consequence are very effect
lively rendered. Whatever may be said as to
tho crsrossing interest Of the story, the
measure of success which must be accorded
the performers for their acting, the fact can
not be gansaid that "Mr. Sampson" is
tuneful work which Of itself is worthy Of
patronage,
