Hannah More, if blue stocking. was
not an advocate If woman's rights. In
1898 she wrote to Horace Walpole: II am
sure have as much liberty as | can make
good use Of now | am an old maid; and
when l was young one had, dare say,
more than was good for me- If were
still young lshe was then 43l perhaps I
should not make this confession. So many
women are fond Of government, / suppose
because they are not TT for it. To be I'M

animal so much indebted 70 sub0rdination
for its good behavior as woman. / have
soberly and uniformly maintained this
doctrine ever since / have been capable Of
observation, both from what / felt 1T home
and have seen abroad" This was said in
view of Mary Wolstonecraft's book, which
Mrs. More was "invincibly resolved" not
TO read. No wonder this good lady and
her books have gone OGt OF fashion.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, July PA tele-
gram from Chicago announcing that
Thomas Litzenberg had been shot there
while committing burglary, caused much
surprise in this city to-day. Five years

Young men in Indianapolis. He is a
nephew of the late Vice President Hem

a democratic politician. Six years
ago he was a candidate for county auditor.
For several years he was cashier of the First

old friends that he should turn out a burg

ever. since his departure from indianapolis.
He became defaultar for $1,000 while in
the Chicago postoffice, where he was given
an appointment by President Cleveland,
but the loss was made good by his in
fiuential relatives and a prosecution was
prevented.

tory During q Severe storm.


tory During "a Severe Storm.
From the Chicago Tribune.
CARLISLE, Pa, July 24-This afternoon
a fearful wind and thunderstorm, accom-
panied by vivid flashes Of lightning, passed
over the Cumberland valley, doing consid-
cradle damage to properly and stock. Dur
ing the progress of the storm a bolt of light
ming struck the shoe factory in this city
and played frighttul freaks with the
building and machinery. At tue time
there were 800 hands employed in. the
building, most Of them being women, and
when the bolt oecended a panic-stricken
crowd rushed for tho doors. Several of the
young ladies were slightly shocked, while
three fell to the floor unconscious, thus add
ing to the confusion. 1t is thought the
Misses Spangler and johnson are fatally in
Jured, as up to this time they have not re-
covered consciousness. Six other young
lady operators were seriously injured, be9
ing bruised in the rush. The lightning also
crushed and burned out two shoe machines,
besides doing other injury to the building,
though no fire resulted.

''When Governor Campbell says the
large number Of business failures last
year were due to the tariff he proves
himself to be the worst kind OF dema-
gogue," says our esteemed but dyspep-
tic neighbor the HtelligCRcer. 1t adds:
Everybody knows that the money string
ency last winter which caused so many fail
ures was due directly 10 three cause.-the
failure Of crops, the British expansion OF
South American loans, and the actions OF
dishonest bank officials.
While these are very remarkable and
original reasons for last years business
failures, let Us for tho sake Of nuttinG
our neighbor in a better humOr, grant
them; but, let us ask, what has caused
the still greater number Of failures to
date this year? Our crops are magnih-
cent. there is no British expansion OF
South American loans" and there is
only the usual run Of dishonest bank
officials.
Come now, neighbor. be cool and think
a moment. Would there not be fewer
failures, would there not be more money
in the pockets Of the people, would not
business in general be brisker, If the
hands of American industry were not
tied and the back Of the American con-
sumer almost broken, by McKINLEY's
60 per cent tariff tax on the necessaries
OF life?

VERY WIDE OPEN.

The rascality Of Mr.. JOHN HoEY and
Mr.. CLAPP SPooNER, late president and
vice-president Of the Adams Express
Company, exceeds anything in the line
of cold nerve that has of late years
come to the surface of the financial sea.
The company is out of pocket $780,
600 or $500, 600 by their operations,
and although attachments for recovery
were issued yesterday, it is doubtful If
there will be anything left to recover
after prior claims on the ill-gotten gains
of these Napoleons of finance have been
settled.
The story is interesting. HoEY was
one of the founders OF the company and
in 1878 was elected president, with
SpooNER as vice-president. Prior to
the deal by which the Adams
Express Co. purchased the Boston Dis
patch Co. and the Kinsley Express Co.
in New England for Ss5O,OOO, HoEY
and SpooNER had actually sold out all
their stock in the Adams Express Co.,
though they engineered that shady
transaction and continued to draw their
salaries and act as President and Vice
President. They had simply purchased
these New England concerns for
$50, 600 and then, as President
and Vice President of the Adams Co.,
bought them from themselves for $780,
600, using the money of the Adams Elk.
press Co.. and coolly pocketing the
difference. At the time neither Of them
owned a dollars worth Of the Adam:
stock and had no right or title to make
the purchase at any price.
For the past three years neither HoEI
nor SPooNER have held any stock in the
company, and HoEY in that time ha:
drawn 100000 in salary.
1t is past comprehension how such
wide-open rascslity and extraordinary
looseness extending over so long period
Of time could escape discovery. Il
shows q most astonishing lack Of super
vision and management in the affairs 81
this great concern. It exempliRes tbs
evil, which is entirely too prevalent il

NEW SAVINGS SYSTEM.
The Ingenious Invention of Mr.. Theodore
Krogh, of This City.

The Ingenious Invention of Mr. Theodore
KrOgh, of This City.
Mr.. Theodore Krogh, night clerk at
the Stamm House, and brother OF
Prof. d. M. T. Krogh, has perfected and
applied for a patent upon what he
terms the "Savings and Retail Pur-
chasing Stamps System" The system
is similar in many respects to the stamp
savings system in many cities, but it
differs from it in that the stamps may
be used in trade with the retail mer-
chants who are subscribers to the sys-
TEN.
The depositor gains per cent upon
all his savings and in addition gains 5
per Cent. upon all the money used
for current expenses. A limited num-
Der of merchants in each line of trade
subscribe to the system. The depositor
receives S1.0O in stamps for each 95
cents placed in the bank, and uses the
stamp at the stores Of the merchants
who are subscriber to the system. Mr..
Krogh argues that merchants will read
lily subscribe, because while they lose 5
per cent, they gain trade and all sales
are strictly cash.
Mr.. Krogh has succeeded in getting a
number of Wheeling men interested In
his new system, and will appear be-
fore the next meeting of the Board
OF Directors of the Wheeling Title and
Trust Company, for the purpose OF ex-
planning the system and trying to in
duce them to adopt it.
