ESTATE AUDIToR.HOE, of Ohio sees
in the returns f the sheep growers of
Ohio splendid evidence in favor of
the Republican policy of Protection.
and especially to the one particular of
sheep growing. He.says:
II find from reports made to this
department by the several county
auditors of the State that the number
of sheep returned for taxation for the
year 1890 is 1888. 2OS. Comparing
this with the year 1888 and 1889, /
find the loss each year to be rapidly
decreasing. The loss in 1889 over
that of 1883 was 1880 head. and
that of 1890 over 1889 is but 11.S71
making an excess of loss for tho year
1889 over that of 1890 of 123, 499.
Of course our Democratic Free
Traders will claim that Protection to
the wool industry has had nothing to
do with increasing the number of
sheep in Ohio, but it is fact. ever
since the defeat of Mr.. Cleveland and
his Free-Trade heresy in 1888, this
industry in Ohio has been prospecting.
So much then, for Republican Con-
gress and to the Republican idea of
Protection to American wool grow

AS a rule, the farmer is content to
make a beast of burden of himself
and to allow other people to do his
thinking for him.
The newspaper is regarded as an
exponent of thought on all phases of
every possible question, and not in
frequently it happens that the less
they know about thing the more
thew have to say about it. The
farmer should do his own thinking
and should not allow himself to be
hoodwinked by designing politicians
who care far less for the farmers
welfare than they do for his vote.
A. certain class of newspapers
throughout the country have virtu-
ally taken the farmers under their
protection, confiding to them the
intelligence that they are shamefully
imposed on by the laws designed to
protect American industries from
competition with the cheap products
of other counties. They tell him
that protection shuts his products
yont from the markets of the world,

John Lohr on Sunday and Matthew
Mackln Tuesday Morning.
John L0hr, aged about A years,
who resided on the John II. Brown
ing farm, about three miles from
Oakland, was instantly killed Sun
day afternoon by train No. 5, which
Is due here at 5:45. From all we
could learn, Mr.. Lohr, who was en-
tirely deaf, in company with Simon
Myers, his brother-in-law, Asa Cod
dington and another gentleman,
went up TO the Snowy Creek wreck
Sunday. After staying there a short
time. they all started for home. Mr..
LOhr, however, stopped to visit Mr..
Ashby, who resides near HuttOns,
and ate his supper there and then
started down The South track toward
5S cut, When near the west end of
the cut a freight train came up and he
stepped to the North track to let it go
by. Just then No. 5 came around
sharp curve, running very fast, and
before the engineer conld stop his
tram, the engine struck Mr.. Lohr,
throwing him down In the ditch be-
side the track. The body laid there
-6ntil a train from the west came
along and was then sent to Oakland.
The remains we're taken to Mr.. John
Shartzer'S undertaking rooms, where
an examination by DR.. Henry w.
McCOmas was made. The doctor
found that his neck, both arms and
left hip were broken, and his skull
fractured. The fracture of the skull
extended from above the right eys TO
the back of his head.
The body Was dressed and encased
in coffin by Mr.. Smarter and sent
to his home Sunday night.
Mr.. LUhr was a ard-WOrking mHn

John Browning last fall. He leaves
a wife aud three children, the eldest
child being I years old.
Matthew J. Mackin was found dead
on the i. Il O. railroad track two
| miles West of Oakland on Tuesday
morning. 1t is the general belief
that he had been struck bv an east
bound frejS ht train about $3.50 a. m.
When his body was found it was dis
covered that his right arm had been
almost severed, between the elbow
anu shoulder, and Il deep cut was in
the back of his head. This was the
only scar on his person except an
abrasure of the skin on the forehead
caused, very likely, by falling on the
stones when the train struck him.
His body was taken to his home
nearby and prepared for burial by
undertaken Sh~rlZnr. Deceased was
aged about 81 Years and unmarried.
He was IA member Of the Ancient
Order of HibelnianS and Of the Cath

ment took place in the Catholic Gem

AN EPICURE's DISAPPOINTMENT
San Francisco Could Not Afford What
 Arizona Gave.

San Francisco Could Not Afford What
 Arizona Gave.
 From the Lordsburg Liberal
 Old Judge McCorkle of Arizona, when he left that land of legends, pueblos, and gold, took with him large quan- tity of the latter He sold mine for something over S2O0,0OO. With this for tune the "Jedge" returned to "the bay" as San Francisco was called throughout the Coast, there to spend the rest of his days in comfort. Having a wholesome distrust of banks, acquired fIom his ex- perience with them in Arizona, the Judge placed his coin in the safe deposit vaults, and has ever since lived on his principal, drawing on the original stock of twenty-dollaE gold pieces there when ever his purse runs low.
 When the judge first came to San Francisco he was somewhat dazed by the rush and whrl of even that not too densely populated city. But, with true provincial pride, he determined to con ceal his feelings. It was this frontier hauteur which actuated his retort in the following dialogue:
 The judge entered the breakfast room in one of the large hotels the morning after his arrival in San Francisco. The waiter presented to him that long and evolved document from which Ameri- cans chart out the morning meal. The judge regarded it apprehensively and said:
 Young man, gimme some frijoles. '"
 Beg pardon, sir?"
 You don't speak no Spanish, hay ? Well, gimme some beans."
 "Very sorry, sir, but we do not serve beans at breakfast, sir"
 "You don't, hay" remarked the Judge sarcastically, "you don't give no beans for breakfast? Young man." and the Judge lowered his rich, alcoholic bass to an impressive murmur, "young man, came from Arizoney, the poorest kentry on this here yearth; but even in Arizoney we git beans three times a day y

CALIFORNIA ON WHEELS.
The Beautiful Exposition Here for Ten
 Days.

Days.
 From the Journal of Finance.
 A most telling advertisement of the greatness of California, sent out by the State Board of Trade, is now on exhibi- tion at the Jersey Central railroads de- pot at Jersey City, California on Wheels" is the name given to this re- markable exposition of California's pro- ducts. Three vestibuled Pullman cars comprise the free exhibit of California s fruits, wines, woods and other products. The train of cars left San Francisco on it's second eastern trip on December 3, 1889, and since then has passed through twenty-three States and Ter ritories, total distance to date of over 10000 miles, and it has been seen by over ,000, ,000 visitors in l98 cities and towns.
 One car is given entirely to an exhibit of various beautiful specimens of Cali fornia fruits tastefully arranged in glass jars along the side of the car. Dried grasses and cereals gracefully hang over the ceilings and corners. Some of the preserved fruits are of a remarkable size. There are bananas four inches in diameter, apples weighing six pounds each and peaches as large as a cocoanut. The vegetables exhibited are of the same gigantic character. Onions twenty-five inches in circumference, sweet potatoes two feet long, squashes weighing nearly 200 pounds are among the most noticea- ble specimens. The different cereals, oats, barley, wheat, Egyptian corn, the dried fruits, figs, raisins, dates, apricots, prunes, peaches, apples, etc., gathered in the car are beautiful to look at. An interesting case is one contain ing collection of fruits, raised by arti- ficial irrigation. A young ostrich, IA days old, two and one-half feet high, and weighing about thirty pounds, rears his proud crest at one end of the car.
 The second car is chiefly devoted to a fine display of California wines. To the front and rear are samples of various ores and timbers. Dried grasses and flowers, photographic views, samples of manufactured products, of wools, cotton, silk, etc., fill every nook and corner.
 The third car is used as living car for the attendants.
 The exhibition, which arrived Friday, will remain here ten days, and will then return to San Francisco by way oi Buffalo.

 Joseph Smith, who owns some min ing property in Arivaipa canon, Gra- ham county, arrived in the city this week and reports matters there in a prosperous condition. The ore pro duced by the mines there is galena and silver and assays about 40 per cent lead and about eighty-two ounces silver. The New York company are operating thirty two prospects, most of which show we'll defined lodges, or true Assure leads. This company has a road eight miles in length from Dunlap to the mines, six teen feet wide and teams of any descrip- tion can pass each other any where on the road with ease. A smelter will be put up soon, and the grading fer that purpose is now being done. Altogether there are about thirty men employed, in one way or another, in Arivaipa. It is hard to get mail matter at Arivaipa, the mail reaching there only twice a week, being seventy miles from Wilcox and about thirty miles from San Carlos Indian reservation.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. %. - Willie
Rushton, until very recently assistant
cashier of the Farmers and Mechanics
National bank, shot himself dead last
night in the house of Nellie Beach. at
405 North Twelfth street. He had pre-
viously shown signs of insanity. The
story that the inmates of the house told
the police was that the man, who was a
perfect stranger to them, came there
about noon Saturday. A young girl
named Nettie Thorn engaged the man
in conversation. He went up stairs,
saying he was going to remain all night.
he said that all he wanted was plenty
OF sleep. He retired and was called at
$3.50. and then went to sleep again. At
1880, OF a little later, the girl Nettie
went up stairs again. just as she
reached the door she heard sew
erol shots fired in rapid succession.
Thinking that the man had killed HIM
self, and fearing to enter the rooE, she
ran out and around to the station
house. Two of the bullets he had fired
ploughed up the wall in two places.
But 40 cents was found in his pockets.
His watch, though handsome one, had
no chain attached to it. The man had
apparently been drinking, as two bot
ties partly filled with whisky were
found in the room, a few weeks ago
Rushton resigned his position as assist
ant cashier of the Farmers and Me-
chanics' bank, with which Institution
ne had been connected for some time.
Rumors were rife at the time that there
was something behind the retirement,
but inquiries at the bank elected the in
formation that the retirement was vol
untary one. 1t has since been learned
that the business under Mr.. Rushton's
direct supervision was not receiving the
attention necessary, and the bank
officials, 1t was said, learning of Mr..
Rushton's convivial habits, limited that
his resignation would be accepted.
Rushton would say nothing as to his
leaving the banks service, nor would
the officials, further than to say that the
resignation was induced by continued
ill health. 1t is thought that this sever
ance of his connection with the bank
has preyed upon his mind, and in his
weakened physical condition the con-
tinued use of alcoholic stimulants had
unsettled his mind. He was very
popular man, with hosts of friends In
business and social circles.

West Sixtieth street. early this morning,
Dennis Daily, three years old. the son
of the captain, Patrick Daily, was
burned to death, and Capt. Daily, his
wife and two other children were so
severely burned that they had to be-
taken to the hospital. The Chandler
had been towed from Gowanus on
Saturday. and the family, who live on
board, retired at IL OIL Saturday night.
An astral Oil lamp was suspended from
the center of the cabin, and about half
an hour before midnight this exploded,
scattering the burning oil over
cabin on fire. Mrs. Daily got up and
screamed, and then picked up two of
her children and pushed them through
the window to the deck of the canal
boat Pratt. which came alongside to
render assistance, her captain having
been attracted by Mrs. Daily's screams.
Two other boys were saved in the same
manner. Captain Daily was awakened
just in time to save his life. In the ex-
element Mrs. Daily forgot all about her
youngest boy, Dennis. She DOW rushed
back and found him in his bunk, and
when she carried him on deck he was
still alive, but burned almost to crisp.
Several canal boat men put out the fire
and notified the Roosevelt hospital au-
thorities, who sent ambulances for the
Injured people. The boy Dennis died.
The other two boys are badly burnt,
and two girls were also Injured.

French gentlemen, who started plan

found that the sum of $1,000 in silver,
which had been drawn by one of the
partners from bank in Panama a few
days before, and all their Jewelry and
other personal valnables. had disap-
peared. Suspicion fell Immediately on
the two iabOrers employed by them to
work the plantation, as, on inquiry, it
was discovered that they had decamped.
The authorities here at once instituted
a vigorous search for the fugitives,
which resulted in their capture yester-
day.
