Their Latest Outrage Near BIasOntOwn,
 Pa, Causes Great Excitement.
 MASON TOWN, Pa, Sep. 10.-Excitement in this vicinity is still intense over the latest outrage by the Cooley gang, which occurred late Thursday night. Six mem bers of the gang entered the house of John A. Walters, near here, when all were in bed, and after tieing MT. Walters and Jacob Cover, and locking Mrs. Walters in her room, they began the search for money.
 Finding none, they lit lamp and held it to the feet of their prisoners, also draw ing a razor and declaring they would cut their victims throats if they didn't tell where the money was.
 The marauders finally compelled the Walters to give up their money, which amounted to $200, the most of which be- longed to Mrs. Walters, Besides the money, fine watch, 8 revolver and lot of fine clothing were taken. The house was ransacked.
 The gang finally departed, leaving their victims tied hand and foot and gagged. All are old people, and were unable to offer roSiStancA

 Sullivan was touched by the pathetic little story. He called for his valet and told him to write down the address as follows: "Manon O'Sullivan. Sack-a- beg, County Kerry, Ireland" Then he sent letter to his shoemaker, Bryan McSwyny, New York, telling him to make pair of shoes with kangaroo up. pers, elkskin soles and porpoise hide faces, and spare no cost. And after he was through training for the day he sat down and wrote the autograph letter tc accompany the shoes, fac-simile et which is printed with this article. The shoes were shipped on the City of Paris in a neat box, with the directions care fully printed on the outside.

this wealzness-if it can be called wealzness-and has excited surprise among those who know him by exhi- bitions of the tenderest feeling. Refer ence is maderparticularly to his kindness toward the numerous boys who have come to visit him from the surrounding country. A crowd of thirty little fel- lows came to see the great pugilist b few days since. He was busily en- gagged rehearsing his new play. But when he heard that the boys had come to see him he dropped his work and went downstairs to shake hands with the boys and to invite them into his homely gymnasium. Here he put on his sweaters, banged the pendent ball, lifted heavy weights, boxed with Jack Ashton and did every thing he could think of in a physical way to entertain his little visitors. Then he took them all with him when he went down to Peconic bay for his daily bath. It was a very pleasing scene to witness this herculean fell ow, whose name is the synonym the world over for brute force and strength, showing the pigmies how to swim and lifting them over his head as mother lifts her babe. But a more striking instance still of ! Sullivans willingness to please oc- cured recently. He was seated on the ! wide, old-fashioned veranda, sitting E the upper portion of a pair of twelve dollar shoes with a jackknife to ease his feet. There was the freedom of a large nature in this act, as very few ! men, even were they millionaires, would | deliberately ruin a pair of twelve-dollar shoes simply because they caused them little temporary annoyance. While he was engaged in this destructive busl- ness man approached, who said:
 "Mr. Sullivan, have 8 message for l you from Ireland"
 Zip! went the knife through the soft calfskin. Then, as he viewed his work with evident satisfaction, he called to his Japanese valet and told him to put his shoes on for him. Turning to the visitor, Sullivan exclaimed, with almost
 painful abruptness:
 "Well, sir, what is your message? Do
 they want me to knock the boobies
 into the sea?'
 ''No, sir,'' replied the stranger, with
 smile. My message is from a pretty
 young Irish peasant girl, eighteen years
 old"
 Here the big fellow became inter
 ested. Looking the stranger full in the
 eye, he asked in deep basso profundc
 voice which made the windows rattle:
 "What the devil does pretty young
 Irish girl want of me?"
 "She wants to know if you will send her pair of shoes, No. 7's, was the re. ply.
 "Well, she has big feet enough, any
 how. wear only 9's myself" said Sul livan. "What is her name?' "Manon O'Sullivan. She lives in the hamlet of Sack-a-beg, in the county O.

 '"That may be-" said John L., with quickening interest. "My father came from that part of the country. But let's have the whole story, man. How did the girl happen to send such re- quest by you?"
 "It happened" said the stranger,
 'that about year ago I was travelling through Kerry, and knowing that your ancestors came from that portion of the country, made some inquiries con- corning the birthplace of your father. In the course of my investigation l found that nearly every O'Sullivan in Kerry-and there are thousands of them-claimed some relationship to you. started my search in Tralee and got on what thought was the right trail when I arrived at Sack-a-beg, which is a small hamlet about four miles from Tralee in the lower Kerry mountains.

 The contradictory elements in the character of John L. Sullivan, the cham pion heavy weight pugilist, arc very fairly illustrated in the following stan ks of Bowery song: He's all right when you know him, though he's

Appeals From the Lower Courts Soon to
 Be Argued.
 ALBANY, Sep. 1O.-An the indications point to a very exciting contest between the Secretary of State and the County Clerks over the new Legislative Appor- tionment law. The General Term of the Supreme Court in the Rochester District having affirmed the decision of the Spec ial Term that the apportionment was un- constitutional, the whole matter will come up before the Court of Appeals when 1t meets in this city on October B.
 It Is a question whether the Governor has power to convene that court at an earlier date-most of the legal minds be- ing of the opinion that he has not the right. But the Clerk of the Court, who is supposed to reflect the opinions of the individual members of that body, says that the Governor has the undoubted right to convene the Court of Appeals in the same way that he can convene any other court
 As the matter now stands the law is unconstitutional, and the Secretary of State could not proceed under it to serve notices upon the County Clerks to pre- pare their election blanks. Anticipating this, the Secretary of State served such notices upon the Clerks three or four days before he knew that the General Term would give an adverse decision upon the law. He has now been notified that, on the 18th of the present month, a motion will be made before the Supreme Court at Saratoga to compel him to serve notices upon the County Clerks in ac co rdance with the old apportionment Should some of the counties elect un der the old law and some under the new there would be a surplus of Assembly | men in Albany next January to take th' oath of office. In that case the trouble might be a very serious one.

 When Mrs. Allaire came to herself, she did so with full consciousness ot what had happened. She had come back to life again with unclouded req son. Her eyes were bent inquiringly upon Andrew Hollister, who sat by her side with her hands clasped in his.
 Speak, oh speak, MT. Hollister-" she murmured, and then her voice died away.
 The merchant obeyed, speaking slow ly and tenderly but plainly and firmly. He told her of their first anxiety con- corning the Dreadnaught-how letters and dispatches had been sent to Singa- pore and to the Indies where the ship had never arrived, how search had been made all along the course traversed by Capt. John and how no sign or trace of the shipwrecked vessel had come to light.
 With parted and rigid lips, with a fixed stare, Mrs. Allaire listened, and when Andrew Hollister had finished, a half groan, half sob escaped her, and then like avail came the words:
 "My child dead-my husband dead. Oh, why did not Zach French let me die?''
 Then suddenly her face lighted up, and there was such wonderful display of that energy and force of character natural to the woman that Dr. Bromley: was fairly startled. With a strong and steady voice she called out:
 "Then there has been nothing heard from the Dreadnaught since you made search for her?"
 Nothing" replied MT. Hollister.
 "And you look upon her as lost?"
 ''Yes-lostr'
 'tNor not a word from John nor from any man in his crew2''
 Mot a word, my dear Molly; we have given up all hope"
 "An hope?' she queried in a tone that seemed almost tinged with irony.
 As she had uttered these words, she had risen from the sofa and stood with her right hand stretched out towards the window through which the ocean was visible. MT. Hollister and Dr. Bromley followed her movements with 8 secret dread, fearing that the worst had come. But Molly's face was not that of lunatic. It was lighted up with glow of her great soul
 "An hope2" she repeated. "You say you have given up all hope? But, MT. Hollister, if you look upon John as lost, [ do not! Without him this fortune will be but dross in my eyes. shall consecrate it to the search of John and his companions of the Dreadnaught! And with Gods help shall find them; yes, shall find them"
