Died Suddenly.

G. W. Gastell, keeper of a small
lunch stand on East Broad street, and
q man of almost herculean size, came
to his death last night, in sudden
and surprising manner. The deceas
ed was apparently well and hearty up
to q short time before his death,
which, we understand, resulted from
an attack of lock-jaw, He was a com
parative stranger in the city, having
arrived here, from some unknown
point, several months since and en-
gagged in the restaurant business. He
was a quiet, peaceable and industrious,
if somewhat uncommunicative, cit
izen and held the esteem and conf
dence of his neighbors and acquaint-
ances. His remains will be inferred
in one of our local cemeteries this
afternoon.

Another Deadly Crank.

Initiating the example of the crazy
assassin of Carter Harrison and would
be assassin of Edwin Gould, desper-
ate and blood thirsty crank fired two
bullets from six-shooter, into the
unoffending body of a prominent New
York city contractor, at whose hands
he immagined himself deeply wronged.
The man shot was Frederick Mat
thies. The man who shot him is
named Thomas Bradley Matthies
was superintendent of construction OF
the new Postal telegraph building.
But for the fact that ten policemen OF
the broadway squad, with billies and
batons, defended the PROSTATE, bleed
ing, mangled, shrieking form Of the
would-be murderer mob of over
1900 men armed with sticks, clubs
and stones would have lynched the
fellow. The police had all they could
do to keep the struggling crowd back
AS it was many head was cracked
by the police in their struggle to get
the crazy man through the crowd.

The Pulse of New York an elabor-
ate scenic production will be at the
opera house Friday, Noy 5rd. The
interest of the piece centers around
its scenic surprises and many excellent
mechanical effects. A good plot is
interwoyen which makes the thread
of the story interesting. OF the seem
ic attractions the steam pile driver in
operation, given in the first act, is one
of the most striking, real pile being
driven. The elevated railroad is an
other clever achievement in this line.
There is also The Little Church
Around the Corner--Brooklyn Bridge
and Pier East River being espec-
tally realistic. The Company, headed
by Carrie Sweeney, is a strong one;
she is a popular favorite and will in,
troduce her German specially, with
the celebrated wooden shoe clog, os
well as sing numerous popular songs.
Miss Sweeney is truly Americas

orite of the ladies and children.
1t is safe to assume that whenever
the fruit and vegetable products of
this section are sufficiently large to
demand it, there Will be found men Of
money and enterprise sufficient to es-
tablish a Canning Factory in this city
and local factory Of adequate size
and capacity VIII be promptly estab-
lished. This assumption is fully jpst-
fed by past experiences of the coun-
try. In every place where factory
of this character has been established
the great draw back to the enterprise
has been the inadequacy OF fruit and
vegetable products, which necessi-
tates one whole year of idleness for
the new factory, as it takes full sea-
son to increase even the vegetable
crop to sufficient size, while on the
other hand factory can be purchased
and set up in running shape in one
months time. Let the orchards of
Of our fruit growers be increased and
the acres OF truck farmers multiplied
