"There was no opposition to the per.

Hin for Election Purposes,
Weekly Budget from Berlin.

LONDON, Oct, 8.-The second ballots
which took place in 1856 Constituencies
in France to-day excite the least possible
interest in England and appear to be re-
garded throughout France and Paris
with nothing approaching the usual
election excitsment, Boulanger is no
longer a factor in any French political
problem, Those who have heretofore
been his warlnest political friends now
insist that their defeat is due entirely
to the failure Of General Boulauger
to use the large sum OF money which
had been given him to aid in carry
Ing the elections for the purpose for
which they were Intended. II Is openly
charged that the brave general has been
quietly slowing away the millions oi
francs which his wealthy dupes poured
into his Golfers, while he let the elections
take care of themselves. Boulanger
takes pains 10 create the impression that
he is Impoverished, but his disguised
allies make no secret OF their belief that
he has carefully nursed his bank account
at the expense Of his own and their po.
litlcal prospects,
The total returns from Paris show the
election Of % Republicans and IA Boul'
angists. Among tue former are NM,
Lockroy, Miller, Dreyful Lanessan, Ras-
pail aud Manhattan, Among the Boul'
anglsts are De Merry, who defeated NJ.

A BRUTAL SORT OF FUN,

A Young Girl Taken from Her BED and
spFiRhed with Cold Water by Young VII
lRinS,
READING, Oct, 6.-AIiss Eva Rsbecca
strasssr, a beautiful girl OF II, residing
in the household Of Adam shappell, a
wealthy farmer, near Hamburg, this
county, was the victim Of a shameful
outrage Friday night, at the hands Of
two young men. At 10 o'clock, after
she had retired and was sound asleep,
young Wilson Rubright and Monroe
Rershner entered her bedroom, struck
u light and awakened her. In a fright
she asked what they wanted, They re-
piled they had merely come to have
some fun.
She protested against the intrusion
and screamed for help, but they paid no
hped, aud coOlly proceeded to pull the
blanket and Coverlet from the bed, leaY,
ing her exposed and shiYering in her
night dress. Then, despite her screams
and struggles, young Rubright seized
her by the shoulders, while KeBhuer
held her by the feet, and together they
lifted her out Of bed, Standing her up,
right In the middle OF the floor, and
holding her arms with an iron grasp,
Rublight kept her 10 that position while
kershner spTlnkled her trembling body
Nth cold water,
After this performance they carried
the terrified girl down stairs into the
presence OF the farmer, who sat alone
by the fire, quietly sEoking his pipe and
Offering no reproOf. Then they released
the girl and she fed 20 her room, Yes
terday morning she arose early, came by
the first train 70 this city, and swore out
warrants for the arrest OF the two young
men aud Farmer Shappell, Detective
Kramer at once went TO Hamburg aud
made the arrests. All three gave bail.
Farmer shappell owns one Of the
largest farms IN that section, and, like
Rlbrlght and Kershner, has hitherto
borne a good reputation. The three
men are reticent about the affair, but
their friends say no harm was intended
10 the farmers protege.

TOLEDO, October G.-The Circuit Court
here yesterday was engaged in hearing
the appeal Of the Ohio Oil Company
from tue order Of the Common Pleas
Court at Findlay, dissolving It's prelim.
mary injunction against the Toledo,
Findlay and Springfield Railway, which
had secured right Of way across the land
on which the oil company held leases
for oil purposes.
The pleadings filed before the Circuit
Court show that the claim Of the oil
company has been misrepresented In

was obtained. No claim Is set UP to the
exclusive use Of the land for all pur'
poses save the owners use thereof, bui
only the right to occupy such portions
as are necessary for the production and
storage OF oil.
The claims Of the oil company in this
case are that the construction Of the rail-
way will impair the value OF the lease
by preyentingthe use Of tho land IL occu

TIE PRIEST WILL HANG,

for Ills Treatment ofa Young Girl.

Father boyle, of North Carolina, Sentenced
for Ills Treatment of Young Girl.
RALEIGH, N, O., Oct 0,-The Catholic
priest, Father Boyle, was convicted last
night Of the charge Of criminal assault
on Miss Geneva Whitaker. The crime
Of which Boyle is convicted was com
nitted last May. He was sentenced to
be hanged November 20.
Solicitor ArgO made a powerful speech
In closing for the State. He explained
the relation OF q priest toward members
OF his congregation, and insisted that
Geneva's conception Of this relation
clearly explained her trustfulness In 60
ing TO BOyle's room. He described what
constituted criminal assault, one Of the
four capital crimes known to North Car
olina law, aud said to Boyle that death
now stared him In tho face, but that II
did SO by his own invitation. He as.
serted that finger marks and bruises on
the girl were overwhelming aud absolute
evidences OF brutal force used by Boyle,
The girls good character had been
proved beyond doubt, and rhe medical
examination pointed conClusiyely Ia
violence. Geneva had cried out when
assaulted, and one Of the leading wit,
nesses for the defense heard the cry,
BOyle's story aud that Of Charles Young,
his servant, that there were no cries, he
said, were manufactured.
His denunClation Of Boyle at times
was terrible. Argument closed at G:SC
p. M, and Judge ArmGeld at once began
his charge to the jury.
The jury was out three hours, when
they returned verdict Of guilty.
