tines were lying on tho ground. 4
Gordon OF police instantly surrounded

Of the whoic series of Whitechapcl

shows that the murderer possessed
some surgical skill. Tho woman was
about 30 years old. ITor clothing vas

This is an ngo OF rcason, OF thought,

man who does not steal because hc

Much credit is due Gardner & SIN
for their mechanical skill in its finish.
The design and plan o: the building
was prepared By Mr.. Kelly, who hap
ply combined convenience with u;il-
ity.
The Grammar Department will oc-
cupy the second floor, while the
ground floor front will be used by the
intermediate. The Primary Depart
ment is . feet By -, oae story high.
All the rooms are Il feet from floor
to ceiling. In each Of the depart
ments blacEboards occapy the four
sides OF the rooms.
The Grammar and Intermediate
Departments will each conveniently
accommodate upwards of sixty pupils,
while the Primary Department will
afford ample room for from forty TO
forty-fiye children, without inconyc-
nicnce TO teacher or pupils. 1t is,
beyond doubt, the most convenient
school cdiiice in the county.
The entire establishment, taken rs
n whole, is an ornament as we'll as a
credit 10 u town, and especial praise
is due to Gardner &Son for the work
maniike Ii in which the build
ing was erected and finished, working
so truthfully TO the plans and specifi-
cations as furnished by the architect,

TREASURY STATEMENTS.

United States Treasurer Huston
ds5arves credit for any homes. Efforts
he may mako to simplify tho methods
OF Treasury bookkeeping, but he
would do vol 20 coniine his attention
TO his own improvements without be-
ing seduced into absurdities by his
nnxiety to mako n point on tho Late
Administration. Sir. Huston is right
in some OF his ideas-tor instance, IN
thinking it time to stop considering
all outstanding fractional currency a
liability. But when no says that
Secretaries Manning and Fairchild
purpossly swelled the column of liza
biIiti.s in order to increase the sp-
parent s:zs of the surplus he is mere
l. eilly. Such a course would have
precisely the opposite effect The
large. the liabilities the smaller the
surplus.
