THE PRINCES OAK REPLANTED.
Minister Pauncefote Sets Out Tree at
Mount Vernon.

The trip of the new steamer Manchester to
Mt Vernon yesterday after she had been chris
tened at the wharf, as was stated in The STAR
yesterday, was a memorable one. Sir Julian
Pauncefote, at the request of the Prince Of
Wales, planted a young oak sappling in front
OF the tomb to replace the one which the prince
planted in 1852 and which died afterwsrd.
This tree grew from an English acorn which
the British minister brought from home
with him when he returned with
his family. On the occasion of the
planting Sir Julian made a most happy speech,
in which he thanked the ladies Of the Mt. YER
non Association for their aid He concluded
as follows:
Il hope that this English oak tree will be
more fortunate than its predecessor and will
endure for many generations as an emblem Of
the sturdy qualities which distinguished Wash
Ington and the race from which he sprang
hope. also. that it will endure as token of the
feeling of attachment and admiration enter
tanned by the royal family of England and the
people of England for this great and kindred
nation, which owes so much to the genius and
virtues OF Washington"
Mrs. Manchester Laughton regent Of the as
sociation responded in fitting manner.
Among those present at the tree planting
were Mr.. Geo. W. Childs of Philadelphia. Lady
and the Misses Pauncefote Admiral and Mrs
Franklin. Mrs. Jeanette Nj. Thurber, Mrs
Field, Mrs. Hearst and Miss Bayard.

A Silver Resolution.

The Republican State Central Com
mittee at its recent meeting at Vir-
ginia City adopted the following:
ResoLUed, That this committee re-
aflirms the State and National Re-
publican platform of 1883, including
the declaration that "the Republican
party is in favor of the use of both
gold and silver as money" and that it
condemns all efforts to dernonetize
silver"
The latter part Of the above resolu-
ton is slightly garbled, for tho Ma
tional Republican platform OF 1888
did not condemn all efforts to de-
monetize silver, but simply all efforts
of the Democratic party to demone-
tie silver. The National Republican
platform of 1888 did not denounce
the successful efforts of the Republi-
can party to delnonetize silver in 1873.
Stick to your text, gentlemen.

ING
Called to Meet at the Courthouse
May Gath.

The characterization Of silver and
its consequent degradation to mere
commodity in The markets of the

ceivable folly or stupendous fraud.
To us it was aud remains a coDspir-
acy, conceived, executed and main
tanned in violation Of the spirit of our
institutions and in utter contempt of
tho general welfare of the people.
It's object was to destroy The quartz

PROSTATE the Industries OF Nevada.
We believe tile time has come to
shake off the barnacles OF Wall

outrage by demanding and exacting
free and unlimited coinage.

THE FOOLS NOT ALL DEAD YET.

John Hill Was Persuaded That His Vito,
In Heaven, Was Not in Style.
John Hill Of Carbon lale. Pa, has brought
suit here against Mrs. Samuel Wyeth for the
recovery OF about $4,000, alleged TO have
been obtained under false pretenses. Mrs.
Wyeth is a medium and Hill was strong
believer i'll spiritualism. When his wife
died Hill consulted Mrs. Wyeth as to her
condition in the unknown world, and was
told that she would be perfectly happy but
for the fact that she was not so becomlngly
dressed as the angels by whom she was sur
rounded. This grieved Mr.. Hill. and he
asked Mrs. Wyeth what the milliners up
there charged for dresses, having, perhaps,
dismal recolections of what their bills were
in this mundane sphere.
Mrs. Wyeth said she would ask the de-
parted spirit and afterward told Mr.. Hill
that prices for dresses in the prevailing
style ranged from $40 to $1,000. His wife,
the medium said, was disposed to dicker
about the price, but assured him, through
her, that whatever would be expended for
her would be duly returned to him by the
Lord.
Finally Mr.. Hill was told to put whatever
money he could spare under a certain stone
and assured him that it would reach its des-
lination. He was liberal in his ideas and
told the medium that he wanted his angel TO
dress as well as any of her celestial neigh
bors.
After while the calls for new robes be-
came numerous and eXIgent and the money
put under the stone disappeared SO quickly.
that he suspected it was removed by other
than spiritual hands. He consulted his
friends and they advised him to bring suit.
Counsel for the defense will argue that
there is no proof that the money was not
taken away by spirits.-Utica Observer.

A FRENCH MURDER.
Remarkable Case of Downright Cold
Rlooded Delibe q ton.

Remarkable Case of Downright Cold
FLOODED Deltberat;on.
For downright cold-blooded elaboration,
the crime for which man and woman have
just been condemned at the Assize Court of
the Department of the Deux Sevres rivals
the murder Of O'Connor by the Mannings.
The victims wife was nurse, and the
couple lived together in the little township of
Bieloux. One day last April the poor mans
body was found some miles from his abode.
There had been foul play, for his legs were
tied together with rope, and heavy stones
were attached TO the body. The skull had
been completely battered in, and it was evil
dent that his asSailant or assailantS had in
tended to throw the body into a neighbour
ing stream. After awhile, suspicion fell on
the wife, and eventually, under the search
ing gaze Of Judge d'lnstruction, the
wretchcd woman confessed that, aided by a
mau named LaDy, sine had indeed made
away with her husband. Lamy also con-
fessed soon after being arrested.
II had been arranged that they were to
murder the husband on the 18th Of March
last, but on that date he did not return home
and the wretcbes put off the execution of
their project until the following night. On
the 18th Lamy came armed with an ak and
a razor and gained admission 10 the house
before the husbands arrival at home. Imme-
Glately the latterdld come he was struck vio-
lently from behind with the Ratchet and fell
lifeless in the passage. The woman helped
the murderer to wash the body and to Carry
1t TO the spot where it was found. The
couple then went back to the house and re-
called themselves with pancakes, which were
made by the woman. 1t is no wonder that
even French jury c0nld discover no extern
uatlng circumstances and that consequently
the criminals were sentenced to be guill0-
tined,-LODd0p Daily News
