Robert Richardson, into the mental con-
dition of Mrs. Sarah NJ. Garnett, wife of
Samuel G. Garnett, of Port Byron who has
been suffering from alteration of mind for
some time. condition induced by over
taxing herself N her domestic duties.
The lady was sdjudged insane and or
dered sent to the Elgin asylum. The
case is doubly sad in view of the
fact that u daughter aged nineteen,
has become so anxious over her
mothers condition as to impair her
own mind. aud she will be before the
county court this evening. Mrs. Garnett
has taken particular care in bringing up
her children, and the daughter who is
also probably insane, had been educated
for school teacher.

Timothy Kennedy. ESQ. is a boomer.
| lie is one of those men who believe In
getting around in the morning pretty
near the bird that catches the worm.
This morning Kennedy as usual, rose
with the sun and apparently the thought
struck him that it would be an unique
idea to get the re st of the town up with
him. and if there was any portion of the
population that fingered undisturbed in the
arms of Morpheus when Kennedy got
through they must be afflicted very much
after the manner of the dummy police-
man that Marshsl Miller keeps around to
talk with people who call to dispute their
dog tax to answer the telephone when
complaint is burdening the wire con-
corning the dump boat
But we ale drifting away from Ken>
| nedy, and the shock, which sounded like
a cannon's roar ut few minutes before
this morning Aud by the way it is a
sober truth, all joking aside, that Ken.
nedy was not on evil bent when he
caused that disturbance He is employed
by Davis & Co. to superntend the sewer
excavations on Market square The
great number of farmers who occupy the
square in the cay time make it imposs
sible to do the blasting that is necessary
in the day time. So last night Kennedy
| dug down to bed rock, and early this
morning he thought would be good
time to blow out the impenetratle forma-
ton before the farmers got around. He
put IN four st cks of dynamite in as
many holes, and by means of an
electric battery sent them off
simultaneously. This in brief explains
that terrific noise that so many were ask
ing about today, and if you desire to in
vestigate further, go down on the square
and look at some of the shattered
window paues. which represent 800
damages, and while the rocks flew in
all directions, the buildings in the inn
mediate were 81 badly shaken up that
the windows were cracked and fell out.
In the Schafer house saloon four four
and a-half by three feet lights were bro
ken. together with thirteen smaller panes.
Two windows in John Koch's shop. across
the alley, were broken, and a window IN
Sauerman's and one in Pfoh's building on
the opposite side of the square were
cracked. There will be no more quadru-

SPENCER SQUARE.
The BeautifaI Public Park Practical
Iy COmpiete-The Ornaments.


The Beautiful Public Park Practical
ly Compiete-The Ornaments.
The last consignments of the Spencer
square ornaments arrived from New
York over the c.. b. & @ this morning,
and were at once taken in charge by Com,
missioner Jackson who started force of
men at work putting them in place,
Messrs. Champion and Searle Of the Inn
provement association assisting in look>
ing after the details. The task of
raising the Cable memorial fountain
Is about completed and by tomor-
row night everything will be in
place. The ARGUS has frequently des-
cribed in detail the many lovely designs
which contribute to the beauty of the
square and only brief allusion is necessary
now. About the elegant Cable monument
fountain Mr.. Jackson has artistically
grouped the different vases, the large
Harper vase being directly in front and
facing on Second avenue. with the Others
in pairs-the Darts Sons, Potter and
Hurst. Huber and Wagner. Sudlow
and Truesdale. surrounding the big foun-
tain, with the Spencer vases on eth
er side to the east approach, and the
Schneider and Magill vases on either
side of the Davis drinking fountain. The
smaller vases from the lawyers ornament
the coping of the Cable fountain. The
lion couchsnt, gwen by Mr.. Fred Wey-
erhauser, are on either side of the walk
to the large fountain with the deer given
by Judge Drury on the east triangle. The
statues of Hebe from Mr. Gilpin Moore.
and Flora from the attorneys, are Placed
on the east and west side respectively. OF
the walk to the band stand, while the nu-
merous iron settees and chairs of hand
some workmanship are tastefully distrib-
uted along the walks.
The square as it at present appears re-
presented an outlay of $1,000, this in,
Guiding the filling. grading. walks
and all ornaments, and it has
also enhanced the value of prop
erty not only in that neighborhood,
but has improved the general appearance
OF the city to fully that extent. The city
should now take steps to provide a
Waterman whose special duty it shall
be to guard the square at night and pres
vent trespass. Mr.. Jackson desires
the public to know that the settees about
the fountain are intended particularly fol
ladies and ladies and escorts, and he wants
the public generally to ENJOY and show an
appreciation of the park by visiting Ii al
all times, especially in the evening
1t is not too early to begin to think OF
Franklin square and Market square, both
of which will be put in as good condition
next spring it is to be hoped as Spencer
square. The people in the neighborhood
of Franklin square should lead the move
ment in which citizens generally will CO.
operate as cheerfully, no doubt, as they
have with reference to Spencer square
while the city should see TO it that Mar

Dropped Into CFearfuD Poetry.

WASHINGTON CRY. Aug. 22.-During
the debate yesterday in the house on the
bill defining lard, McClammy of North
Carolina @drapped into poetry" with start
ling results, POLITICALLY. He said he could
only think of one verse, and that came
near paralyzing the house:
@You may break, you may shatter the
lard trust if you will,
But if you listen TO the testimony taken
before the committee on agriculture,
and find what pure lard is made of,
you will find that the scent of the
whole hog will hang round it still"
