Shot for a Bear.

Last Saturday night Grant
Bowman was shot and killed at
Bryant by Geo. Irish, resident
of that place Bowman had been
in Bryant only a few weeks, and
it was learned that he was in hid
ing from officers from Kentucky
for some crime committed in that
state. The day on which the
shooting occurred a sheriff from
Kentucky came to arrest Bowman
but he took to the woods. That
night about eleven o'clock Mr..
Irish was aroused by his dogs,
and he got up, took his gun, and
went out to see what the trouble
was. He saw in the edge of the
clearing what he supposed to be a
bear and fired. Then he discover
ed that he had shot Bowman who
had been skulking through the
woods. The injured man lived
about twelve hours, and it is
reported he fully exhonerated
Irish, and said he would rather
die that way than to be taken
back to Kentucky. The coroner's
jury attached no blame to Irish

The Minneapolis Exposition
this year will contain a greater
number of attractive exhibits than
ever. At a recent meeting Of
prominent manufacturers, it was
decided to put in very elaborate
displays, and in order to add
interest to them, it was decided
that they should be movable in
character. Manufacturers from
abroad are showing much inter
est this year owing to the recent
admission to the sisterhood of
states of North and South Dakota,
Montana and Washington, and as
a result are bringing forward their
finest goods for exhibition at
Minneapolis. Prominent among
these are Messrs. Powers &
Weighman, of Philadelphia, the
largest manufacturers of chemicals
in the world who will place on
exhibition their mammoth display
they had at London, Paris and
other old world exposition centres.
A number of other equally prom
inent in the manufacturing world
will be represented, SO that
undoubtedly in point of general
interest the Exposition of 1880,
will be the best yet held.

One pensioner Of the govern
ment has just had a piece of good
luck. His name is Richard Whit
ing, and in 1883 he was granted
pension of S24 a month, which
was subsequently increased to $50
per month. Afterwards through
a mistake made by surgeon the
pension was reduced to S8 per
month. The pensioner applied
for a re-opening of his case, and
assistant Secretary Busy has just
decided that he is entitled to
pension of S72 per month and
arrears since his discharge which
will amount to $4,000.
The government departments
are having a good deal of trouble
with the telegraph companies
owing to the suspension of the
contract for carrying government
messages. The telegraph people
are making Uncle Sam pay cash
at transient rates for all the mes
sages sent. The postmaster gen
eral, who has authority under the
law to set the price for this work,
claims that one mill per word is a
fair price, this is denied by the
telegraph companies and in the
mean time government officials
have to pay for their messages.
Before leaving the city for
short rest Secretary Noble receiv-
ed the preliminary report of the
commission which has been inves-
sigating the re-rating of pensions.
He has instructed the commission
to proceed with the investigation.
He wants the proceedings for
twelve months. He declined to
make public the preliminary
report but said the full report
should be given to the public just
as soon as it is finished. / under
stand that the Secretary is salts
fed from the report that there has
been no serious wrong doing but
he deemed it good policy to have
a fuller investigation made lest
some OF the enemies of the Pension
office should say that the months
included in the preliminary inves-
tigation-Dec. 1883 and May
ISSo-had been selected before
hand on account Of the showing
shey made.
Secretary Window has returned
from his trip to Boston and will
remain in Washington for afewdays
before taking a short vacation. He
worked very hard since the 4th of

hours, these officials have been
obliged to put at their desks.

ton always means unlimited hard
work for the men who have to
map out and put into operation its
policy, and this being such a
radical change from the demo-
cratic administration has made
the amount of work to be done
much greater than usual. 1t is
no exageration to say that the
members of the present cabinet
have worked harder during the
last five months than they ever
did before in their lives and sew
eral Of them have been for years
at the head of large and success
full private business concerns.
They have all earned a rest.

Sunset" Cox, the funny" dem
oCratic congressman from New
York never forgets 20 be humor-
ous. He has just returned to
Washington from a trip through
the four new states and he cody
claims credit for the passage Of
the bill making them states by the
last congress. This is carrying a
joke almost too far. If | remem-
Der Alright, and I think l do, the
credit for the passage of that bill
belongs to the republicans, who
informed their obstinate democrat
ic colleagues that unless the bill
was allowed to go through the
House the President would call
an extra session Immediately
after his inauguration for the
express purpose of passing it.
Mr.. Cox is entitled to the credit Of
having sufficient political sense to
make a virtue of necessity, and
for having persuaded some Of his
more near sighted democratic
colleagues to vote for the bill. Let
Mr.. Cox be as funny as he wants
to, but don't let the record on this
subject be muddled or confused.

TROU BLED FEARED,

Some excitement was manifested at the

upon receipt of cablegram from Com

mediately communicated the information
to Sec. Blaine, who carried the news to

the state and navy departments who is
in position to know the contents of the
cablegram refuses to say anything about
it except one official, who complained the
sender did not appear to know much
about the situation. Nevertheless it was
generally believed at the department, and
that the news from Hayti is not reassur-
ing, and it was currently reported that
Capt. Orkney has been ordered to sail i'm

SPECIAL INQUIRY.

The special grand jury to deal with the
Cronin case was impaneled yesterday in
Judge Shepard's court. In addressing
the jury Judge Shepard said he expected
q full, exhaustive and impartial investi,
CATION of the murder. The entire resourc.
es of the county, he said, would be at
the disposal of the jury, and witnesses
who would not testify should be made to
do 30. The grand jury had in its posses
sion the power to do so. There are two
Irishmen ON the panel, W. J. Quan, q
we'll known wholesale grocer, and O'Neil,
eX-county commissioner.
Judge Tulley announces that he will
review the testimony taken before the
coroner's jury in the Cronin case and
decide whether or not there is enough
evidence to hold Alexander Sullivan with
out bail. He will announce his decision
tomorrow.
The clerk who sold the furniture found
in the cottage where Cronin was murdered
has seen a photograph of John J. Ma
roney, under arrest in New York, and
says he undoubtedly is the man who
bought it.
