Nicaragua has enacted laws that
bears very hard on the alien, notes the
San Francisco Examiner. The under
living idea seems to be to have the
alien furnish the money for q govern
ment devoted mostly to his own op-
preston. When Nicaragua shall have
acquired the largest standing army in
the world and the largest navy it may
be able to execute these laws. In the
meantime much satisfaction may be
derived from contemplating the fact
that such august enactments adorn
and glorify the statute books.

Says the New Orleans Picayune
The Government of Italy has determ'
tned to effectually suppress the brig
andage which has long terrorized the
Island of Sicily. 1t proposes to de-
clare martial law in the island and to
send thither $4,000 troops, who will
have the assistance of the local police,
and will push vigorous compaign,
especially through the mountainous
districts. The courts where the brig
ands are tried will have special meas
ures taken for their protection. The
Sicilisn Malta in this country will
doubtless soon have large accessions to
its ranks.

Englishmen, Irishmen and colored
men are the usual employees about
stables in New York, though elsewhere
Italians have come to be employed at
all sorts of unskilled manual labor.
The fact is, explains the New York
York Sun, that Englishmen are bred
to the care of horses, Irishmen have a
curious sympathy for the brutes, and
colored men enjoy the cosy warmth
of stables in winter time.

WRECK ON THE LEHIGH.
The Burning Cars Set Fire to White
Haven, Penn.

Poor train running caused a disastrous
wreck on the Lehigh Valley Railroad at
White Haven, Penn. The strikers put the
blame on the non-union men who were in
charge of the colliding trains.
The first train passed White Haven all
right Non-union men were in charge OF
the second, piloted by telegraph operator.
After tho train had passed over the noun
tain and was approaching White Haven the
engineer gave the signal "Off brakes" Then
he put ON full head of steam and .spulled
OUT
The brakemen, who were also non-union
men, did not respond quickly enough, and
the train parted In two places. The
engineer did not notice the mishap and
went on. The first broken section came
to a stop about fifty yards on the south
side of White Haven station, but the
second section, or rear end, of the train
was under more momentum, and had
not stopped when it was approached from be-
hind by the third freight train, drawn by en-
gine No. III, with nine cars OF mixed
freight, mostly -four, feed, molasses and hay.
This train was also in charge of nom
union engineer with pilot The train was
going at the rate of thirty miles an hour.
The crash occurred along the main street
and was heard all overtown. As soon as en-
gine No. III struck the caboose ahead. the
Goals in the caboose stove were scattered in
every direction and the whole wreck was
soon on fire. The caboose was cut in two
and one-half of 1t was thrown against the
second story of Ruhnks Hotel.
In ten minutes after the accident the hotel
was in flames, and in less than an hour il
was in ruins. The flames communicated te
Thomas w. Ricker's grocery store. This
also was destroyed, as was Cramer's livery
stable %
After working hard for three hours more
the firemen finally subdued the flames. The
second fire increased the losses by Smiths
Hotel, briggs drug store, J. W. Coons gen
erai store, Fishers jewelry store and Forsch
ner's jewelry store
The property lost to the Lehigh is 100000
and if it is compelled to pay for the property
destroyed by fire in the town, caused by th'
wreck, the loss will foot up fully $4,000.

MR.. OLNEY'S REPORT.
A Years Work in the Attorney-Gen-
eral's Office.


The annual report of Attorney-General Oh
ney shows that the volume of the business OF
the Federal courts is rapidly increasing. The
number of criminal prosecutions pending in
the Circuit and District Courts of the United
States on July 1. 1898, was 1886 against 3SOS
pending in the same courts July l, 1885,
while the expenses of the United States
Courts, exclusive of judges salaries, in
Cured and paid in the fiscal year 1898 were
$4 $685. .676, against 81, ,874, 733 incurred and
paid for the like expenses in the fiscal year
1885, Qualification is expressed at the Su-
preme Courts progress in overcoming the
arrears of business which, until the estab-
lishment of the Circuit Courts OF Appeal,
steadily increased. =
The Attorney General recommends that
thesystem of supporting United States prls-
oners should be changed. There are l1Sl
United States convicts confined in the various
penal institutions of the country, from
Maine to California, and he believes that i'm
mediate steps should be taken for the erec-
ton of at least two penitentiaries and one re-
formatory, capable of accommodating all
prisoners sentenced to long terms by the
limited States cOurts

Do you ever notice how few patche

Do you ever notice how few patches
people are wearing? asks the New York
Sun. It is because clothing is so
much cheaper now than it used to be,
Chat it is not worth while pulling old
garments together. When they are
worn out, they go into the rag bag or
are given 60 tramps and new ones are
ordered of the custom tailors, or more
often are bought outright at the near
est hand-me-down shop. A pair of
colonial boots, recently shown in a
shoe makers window, was almost cov-
cred with homemade patches. Such
exhaustive eking out of old boots is
not in vogue nowadays; it is cheaper
and better to get new goods.
