HUGH o'poNNELL's TRIAL.
Testimony of Newspaper Correspondents
Who Were at the Riot.

PITTsBURG, Feb. 15.-The afternoon
session in the O'Donnell trial was given
up to hearing the testimony of newspa>
per correspondents who were present
when the riot occurred.
Frank McQuiston testified that he was
up in the cupalo with O'Donnell during
q part of the battle. A number of other
correspondents were present, and O'Don-
nell warned them mot to see anything
which could be used as evidence"
George Campbell, editor of the West
Elizabeth Star, said that he was standing
on the river bank when the rioters were
pumping the oil at the barges, and he
heard some one behind him say: "That
is no way. Build raft, load it with oil,
set fire to it, and let it float down
against Them
He turned around and saw it was
O'Donnell. On cross-examination wit
ness said he did not know for sure that
O'Donnell said that, but he heard the
words, and on looking around saw O'Don-
nell standing there.
Harry Goshorn, of the Pittsburg
Despatch, was in the cupalo and corrobor-
ated the other witnesses.
In conversation with O'Donnell about
the matter, he said, speaking to several
men: Gentlemen, this is no longer a
riot, it is a revolution"
Robert w. Herbert, another Despatch
reporter, said he was in bed at the Car
negie hotel when the general alarm was
sounded.
When he came out men, women and
children were running about, shouting,
calling to each other, and making all
manner of noises.
cit was" said Mr.. Herbert, "the wild
est, most thrilling scene of excitement
had ever enjoyed"
"Did you enjoy its? asked Mr.. Patter-
son.
Eyes, really enjoyed it," said the
witness, and then everybody laughed.
Mr.. Herbert was still on the stand
when court adjourned.
During the session in the morning
w. H. Burt, who had charge of the Chi
cago contingent of the Pinkertons, testi-
flied thst O'Donnell called out: "Don't
land. If you come ashore every --
- of you will be killed"
Joseph Malloy, another Pinkerton. tes-
titled that O'Donnell gave orders to
armed men ON the bank, and replaced one
man with pistol with one who had g
shotgun. He then came to the bank and
called to Capt. Cooper that he wanted Etc
talk to him.

CONGRESS MOVING SLOWLY.
Invalid Pension Bill in the House-Canal
Bill in the Senate.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-After a short
conflict between the Democrats and Re-
publicans of the House yesterday the
Democrats were obliged to yield grace
fully and to agree to the terms which
the Republicans presented. These were
that general debate on the Invalid Pen
sion bill should continue until the minor
ity was accorded six hours debate.
Then the debate continued but it was
without special interest.
The Nicaraguan Canal bill was before
the Senate again for a couple of hours,
and was then laid aside SO that the Sun
dry Civil Appropriation bill might be pro
Ceeded with.
The Canal bill was the subject of two
speeches and of running discussion in
which Mr.. Sherman, who is in charge Of
it took leading part. He explained
why it was that 100000 of stock,
already issued, was left outstanding.
AT one point in the discussion, Mr.
Teller, (Rep., Col.) referred to a state
ment OF Mr.. Sherman as a misrepresenta
tion whereupon Mr.. Sherman exclaimed
that that was false, us he had misrep
resented nothing.

THE MExICAN's COURAGE.

An Instance Which APPLY illustrates Hi
Bravery.
"The Mexican is not usually trained
fighter, but he doesn't lack courage"
said a traveller recently. HE will take
more punishment than any white man
living before admitting that he is whip
ped. He is mixture of Spaniard and
Indian, and inherits the reckless dar-
ing of the one and the stoicism of the
other. The bravest deed I ever wit
messed was performed by a Mexican
some years ago at Durango. A menag-
erie was exhibiting in the town, and
a large, fierce leopard escaped from
its cage and went bounding down
the principal street. A child
about two years old was playing
on the curbstone and clapped its
hands with glee as the beautiful beast
came bounding toward it. Everybody
was skurrying for a place of safety,
when a rather handsome young Mexi-
can came around the corner. The child
was midway between him and the
leopard, and both advanced toward it,
eying each other. When a dozen feet
distant the leopard crouched for a
spring, but the Mexican was too quick
Tor 1t. lie sprang forward, caught up
the child, threw it behind him, drew
his long knife, and advanced on the
leopard. The latter beat the pavement
with its tail, and made an ugly kissing
sound like that of monster house cat.
l expected to see it spring upon the
Mexican, but it did not. When his
antagonist was within a dozen feet OF
him the leopard sprang across the
street, and with low growl trotted
off"-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

An Interesting Question

Men are as common as potatoes. We
see them everywhere. Still the most in
teresting object in this world to look at is
a famous man. People go in tlocks to see
him. 1t is called hero worship. 1t ought
to be called soul-worship, because it is the
soul you are admiring. Have you ever
seen an ugly face grow handsome after "a
little acquaintance
From the soul the body form 10th take
For soul is form, and doth the body make
CHAUCER.
We believe in monuments to public
men 1t attracts the attention of our
youth, and is healthy inspiration. Wa
cities in the world. Her industries go on
uninterruptedly. We have no strikes,
Eve,y sensible person is improving his
condition. But the question is, to whom
shall we build our first monument What
name stands out in bold relief that we
would consider worthy of the distinguish
ed honor We need not care what out
siders think. We must go on the princi-
pie that every family loves its own, and
we, the people of Waterbury, are one big
family. 1t will be interesting to the peo-
pie to know that we have let the contract
for putting new front on our building,
South Main and Grand streets. 1t will
soon be finished and people will come
from all parts to g. it. Talk about your
monuments This will be the monument
that the people will flock to see. The fine
hand of the skillful artist will here be
seen at its best and the people will rise up
and call the Waterbury Furniture com
pany blessed Our bui ding inside is
complete and our trade is double what we
expected at this time of the year. Our
new crockery department is model of
excellence Our carpet and stove depart
ments are Just what you " ould expect in a
first class house. Remember that the wo-
men of Waterbury God bless them-were
unusually prolific last year, in honor of
Columbus we suppose, and increased our
population, to the inspiring tune of .21O
babies. We think we can hear their
musical voices now, crying for the baby
carriages which we have bought for them,
and we stake our reputation on their
beauty, style and finish. Oh, they are
elegant, and no mother who loves her
child can afford to buy until she sees this
line. We wont attempt t. describe them;
they must be seen to be appreciated, be-
cause the low price and new style will
surprise you. We guarantee our prices
this year to be considerably lower thSn
ever before. We can afford to as we have
increased our capacity in every direc
ton. We are buying in immense quaint
ties in every department, for cash. We
own the buildings we occupy, and the
rent we put back into the business. We
have every advantage that money can
afford We a'e into business this year
with both feet and we mean to agreeably
surprise the people who visit us. Remem

lOrsville, Lackawanna county, Pennsyl-
vania, was dead. Mr.. Jones was in the
05th year of his age and was one of Tay-
lorsville's best known citizens. His death
was the result of a paralytic stroke
which he received some time ago. His
body was buried Wednesday afternoon
and the funeral was largely attended.
The public schools of Pooler have
closed and the youngsters are once more
at liberty Before the next session opens
1t is likely public meeting of citizens
will be called and memorial sent to the
board of education, asking that this sec
tion receive more attention and better ac-
commodation for the education of chill
dreH. Last year those who availed them
selves of the privilege of sending their
children to school here were taxed 35
cents to pay for the rent of small house
that was used as a school. Another griev-
ance Is that the children are not given
the same amount of schooling that city
children receive. Next fall several
families will send their children to school
in Savannah rather than let them remain
here.
The chances of Pooler having brick
hotel are becoming more certain every
day. In a conversation with several gen
tlemen who are financially interested in
the project, it is learned that the com
pany has received some very fiattering
encouragement recently in shape Of
moneyed men inquiring for stock. There
is no doubt that three-fourths of the stock
will be taken up by representative men Of
Pooler The organization of the company
will very likely be effected in a few days.
The projectors of the hotel say that this
town will be greatly benefited after 1t is
in running order. The idea is to erect a
brick structure that win cost at least
S., 900, and get an experienced man to
manage it. Several locations have been
"sized up" but as yetit has not been de-
cided on what lot it will be bnilt. One
object will be kept in view, though, when
the committee makes its selection, and
that is not to crowd themselves, but have
plenty of room, so that as the town and
hotel patronage increases, the accommo-
dalton can be increased by adding wings
and additions to the building. A small
park or garden will also be one of the at
FRACTIONS 10 boarders, and that will ne
cessitate the use of at least one-half acre
of ground.
