HONEST LITTLE HENRY.
fIiD Experience Proves That Virtue Is Its
Own Reward.

Own Reward.
Ills name is Horny Parker. His par
ents live in Il humble cottage at tho
foot of Long Hill. They are poor but
honest. The father works in tho saw
mill and the mother does all in her
power to holp him make Il living. She
has worn tho same bonnet for twenty-
two years and she goes bare footed oyery
summer To save shoe leather. All! she
is indeed n true wife. and Mr.. Parker
has ofton blessed the day he found her.
Horny is now twelve years old. Ono
day last year his fond mother said to
him:
Horny, lot us surprise your dear
father tonight. lie tolls all day long.
He works ton hours for nine hours pay,
and he never strikes. Let us surprise
him with something now for supper"
with all my heart" exclaimed little
Henry, as he left his play. What
shall it be?"
"a fine, fat custard, my by. You
run over to Mrs. Thompsons and ask
her to lend me bowl, three eggs, a cup
OF sugar and pint of milk and will
mako tho custard."
'But, mamma, don't you already owe
her two barrels of sugar, carload OF
eggs and a hogshead OF milk?"
probably more than that. but when
you have good neighbor don't let 60"
Little Henry departed in bouyant
spirits, and as he was about to cross the
bridge he espied an object in the road.
Going closer, he discovered that it was
largo, fat wallet. He picked it up ard
opened it, to find that it contained sew
eral hundred dollars. No one was in
sight; no one had seen him. An evil
voice whispered to him to take tho
money and throw the wallet away, and
for a moment he was tempted. But for
moment only. Thon he lifted up his
head and said aloud:
mo, will not DO it. This Doodle be-
longs to Judge Gherkin, who lives in
the biggest house in town and lends
money at eighteen per cent. will carry
it straight to his office.
He did so. The Judge counted over
the money to see if it was all right, and
then smiled upon tho honest lad and
said:
boy, thank you, and this next fall
I'll give you two shillings q cord for
saving up my woodpile."
Honest Henry ran homo to tell tho
good nows, and his mother laid her
hand on his head and said:
My son. you did right. am proud
OF YOU Now run along after those
things, and if you are not bacl, in three

A Pretty Jewess Mysteriously
Murdered.
EXCITEMENT IN WALL STREET
DeEocrats Carry the Election at
BiddefOrd, Maine - Strikes
and Strikers.

associated Press Dispatches to THE HERALD
FEW YORK, March 10-A mysterious
murder was discovered by Blumah Levy,
a feble, tottering woman OF 20 years, in
a gimy cellar at No. 3 Eldridge street,
thii afternoon. The murdered one was
a yung, good-looking woman, and evil
derly Jewess. Her body was covered
with bruises and her skull was frac ured.
Shnds of human skin, hanging in light
thr.ads from her finger nails were mute
evidences of an awful struggle with the
murderer. No one had occasion to use
the cellar for six months before today,
when Mrs. Levy went down to get beer
kes to preserve pickles in. Upon the
discovery of the body, the police were
Immediately notified, but go far no clue
to the murderer has been discovered
For the past year Mrs. Levy's son used
the ground floor as place of business
and rented the floor above to two rich
Hebrews, who founded Hebrew school
Isaac Jacob, the crazy Hebrew who re-
Gently shot and killed Herman Rogo-
zinski, and shot, but did not kill, Mrs
Rogozinski, and when pursued shot and
killed himself, was janitor of the school.
1t was said he had a number of wives,
and the police think the murdered
woman was one of Jacobs wives, and
that he killed her before his onslaught on
the Rogozinski family.

in his power--i1 season and out of
season and without much scruple
as to the manner-to prevent
the city from carrying out the
mandate of the law and depositinr
the moneys with an institution that has
agreed to pay AZ per cent. year for
the deposits and secure the city against
any possible loss. AS public officer his
duty conficted with his position as a
bank president, and he has not hesitated
to look out for No. and let the peoples
interest suffer. He has prevented the
city from receiving 81, 600 month in in
'terest upon money which he, as banker,
has used for his personal profit. This is
the gravsmen of Mr.. Frankenfisld's
offence, and that is what the HERALD
would like to have explained.

A NEW DODGE.
Fears that the North Dakota Lot

Fears that the North Dakota Lot
terry will Yet BE a Reality.
ST PAUL, Mimi, March 10.-The North
Dakota Legislature few days ago ap-
pointed seed wheat commission, some
of the members of which are acknowl-
edged leaders in the lottery scheme, and
the opponents of that measure at once
expressed the fear that through the ne
cessities of their constituents some of the
anti-lottery members would be won over
by the commission. A Pioneer Press
special tonight says there is the best OF
reason for believing that the lottery bill
will be taken from the table tomorrow
or Wednesday, in order to get test vote
on it. AS it requires two-thirds vote to
take it from the table, that, if secured,
would be enough to pass it over veto
If the motion carries, new bill will be
introduced, making the tribute annually
$3.50 900 instead $l75 900, while the price
of the charter will be raised from $25 ,00O
to $50 900, and $2l 900 will be paid at
once into the State Treasury. The seed
wheat question will be used with power
full effect.

STRIKES AND STRIKERS.
North western Switchmen Block
Business at Chicago.

CHICAGO, March 10.-The switchmen
employed in the Chicago and North
western yards, between 800 and 400 in
mum ber, went on a strike this morning,
badly blocking business. The men
claimed that Yarimasier Brooks was
over bearing and dem anded his removal.
After four hours blockade and confer
ence, the company removed Mr.. Brooks,
and the men returned to work. An hour
later they quit again to demand the dis
charge of two switchmen who had made
themselves obnoxious. This matter was
settled after another hours delay, and it
is now thought the trouble is over. The
railroad officials say the whole trouble is
due to ill-fesling between the rival
switchmen's organizations.
SYMPATHY AT MILWAUKEE.
MILWAUKEE, March 10.-All the switch
men employed here by the Chicago and
Northwestern, numbering about fifty,
struck today, in sympathy with and in
support of the switchmen who struck in
Chicago. Trains are greatly delayed
and by O'Clock there was blockade at
the station here. Engineers who were
asked to help get trains out refused.
Freight traffic is practically at a stand
ooiii' iIaoCi LII VIC oN6uluS Gley T6C0lV6u
advice from Chicago that the strike was
settled, whereupon all returned to work.
SHIRT MAKERS STRIKE IN GOTHAM.
New YORK, March 1O-Two Thousand
shlrt-makers went on strike in this city
today. Many of them are women, and
they demand uniform rate of pay in all
the shops They also want the bosses to
provide machines for them to operate.
Many bosses conceded the terms de.
manded, but the others are holding out.
The pleatmakers joined the shirt ma akers
out OF sympathy. A number of pants.
makers struck, but the strike did not
become general.
The workmen employed on the build.
ing of the Temple Court annex struck
today. They demand that only union
men be employed on the work.
STUDENTS ON A STRIKE.
KALAMAZOO, Mich, March 10.-The
students who had hearing before the
faculty and asked to have those who
were suspended for abducting two pro.
fessors reinstated at the end of this term
expected reply this morning, but upon
receiving none left for their homes today.
1t looks very much as though the faculty
will reconsider their decision.

A Rated CASE.
Henry VS.. The Travellers Insuranc
Company of HertfOrd.

Company of HertfOrd.
DENVER, March 10.-The Master in
Chancsry's report in the celebrated case
of 7. @. Henry against the Travellers In
surance Company, of Hartford, was fled
today. The report finds cash balance
due Henry of $92 ,5l0.16, and that there
should be returned to him collaterals ag-
gregating over a million dollars, and or
ders the cancellation of all Henry's obli-
cations. The Master finds that these
obligations have been paid to the Travel
ers' Insurance Company by the receipt
of bonds of various irrigating
companies, of Colorado, with which
Henry has been connected. All claims
made by the Travellers Insurance Com
pany for the misappropriation of money
by Henry in Kansas and Colorado are
rejected by the Master. This result
affects the most important Agricultural
districts, and changes the legal status of
more than half of the large irrigating
canals of Colorado. An action was be-
gun by Mr.. Henry today in the United
States Circuit Court against the Travellers
for $500, 600 damages for illegal seizure
of property. More suits for damages
will follow.

The Fair and the Fruit Growers

The Fair and the Fruit Growers.
Today the members of the Fruit Grow
ers' Convention open the annual session
of that association in the Los Angeles
theater. 1t is body of experts, each of
whom knows a great deal about some
one or more branches of fruit growing
Papers OF great value will be read and
discussions had on them which will
throw great deal of light on the topics
before the session. No doubt the meet
ing in this city will attract a large num-
Der from all parts of this section, so
noted for the products of itsorchards.
Tonight the Southern California citrus
fair opens at Hazards pavilion. Much
preparation has oeen made for this ex-
hibit of the citrus products of the Sec
ton, and there is very active competition
among the districts for the handsome
premiums offered by those who are
managing the fair, aided by the State,
which gives $500 for the purpose of
making an exhibit.
These two events coming together is
peculiarly auspicious. 1t will be pleasure
for fruit growers from the upper part of the
State to be able to see at one glance
what this section is capable of in the
production of citrus fruits, and it will be
no less pleasure to the people of this Sec
ton to show the best results of our ef-
forts to 30 intelligent body of expert
fruit growers. 1t will be of large mutual
benefit to them and to us.
The citrus fair is in excellent hands,
and there is no shadow of doubt az to
the success of the undertaking. Our
citrus fruits are now at the very acme of
perfection, presenting to the eye and
palate all their choicest qualities. 1t is
risking n ,thing to assert that the world
could anot furnish finer display of or
anges and lemons than will be seen to-
night at the Pavilion.

AN EXCITING ELECTION.
The Democrats Garry Biddef0rd,
Maine-ScrappinR Officials.

BrDDEFoRD, Maine, March 1O-There
was great excitement here over the mu-
nicipal election today. One hundred
special police and twenty-five deputy
sheriffs were on duty. The votes of men
whose naturalization papers were issued
by the municipal court in alleged viola.
ton of the law were being challenged.
The special officers were working in
sympathy with the men. In one ward
two deputy sheriffs arrested challenged
voter, but special officer and a
crowd liberated the prisoner. In another
ward Deputy United States Marshal
Stackpole drew revolver when crowd
interfered with his arrest of voter.
Stackpole succeeded in holding his man
and also caused the arrest Of a special
officer who interfered. Warrants were
issned for the arrest of deputy sheriff,
and ten minutes later the local police
captured Deputy United States Marshal
Stackpole, and Deputy Sheriff Parker, of
North Berwick, and hustled them to the
police station, followed by a mob.
The election resulted in a complete VIC
tory for the Democrats.

The Lower Mississippi Breaking
'ahrOuRh It's Confines.

ARKANSAS Cry, Ark, March 10 The
levee broks about six miles above here
at Sappington Loop yesterday afternoon.
The break is due to the fact that the
levee was built largely OF sand. Since
the break the crevasse has not widened
materially, and a strong effort will be
made to stop it. Considerable water has
come in already, and it is filling up the
back country, but SO far there is no water
in town. 1t will be day or two before
the place is flooded, if it is flooded
at all.
ST. LOUIS. March 10. - Reports from
the lower Mississippi river are to the ef-
feet that the flood has become alarmingly
high all along the river. Levees are
breaking at various points. There is
great apprehension that large section
of country on both sides of the river will
be inundated.

Then they notified the Wermsers to de.
