Soon after the West-bound overland
train pulled out of Truckee yesterday
morning Conductor Martin V. Murray
discovered a atough-looking tramp stealing
ride. He ordered him of the train. but
the fellow, who appeared to be imbued
with the Fredericks' idea. drew revolver
and threatened to shoot Murray.
The latter remembered that he was not
quite prepared to leave the world lust
then, and did not attempt to put the
tramp OF, but retired TO another car and
signaled the engineer to stop the train.
Murray and some of the rrainmen
fastened back to where the tramp had
been, but he had concluded to forego
using his pistol and had skipped.

tical and Patriotic Citizen.

The announcement Of the death .
which occurred at his home in vi.
roqua, this state, last Tuesday
morning, Of this noble and beloved
man. brought not only grief but
great surprise to one and all every
where. II was known that he was
sick. but the news from the sick
chamber on Monday was that the
General was in a better condition
than for many days.
General Rusk was self-made and
remarkable man. He lacked edu
cational polish, but his common
sense judgment was simply marvel
Gus and proved more than an offset
to this lacking. lie was one with a
character built upon the basis of a
rugged integrity aud natural intel
ligepce, and developed amid the at
triton Of contact with the pratical
side Of life. Ex-Presideut Harrison
says of him: Gle was one Of the
noblest and truest men ! ever knew.
He was man Of ability and dis
charged every public duty that he
was called TO with fidelity"
General Rusk was reared on a
I'm in Ohio and at an early age
embarked in stage-driving and
pioneer life. Served calamity as
officer Of volunteer troops during
the war Of the rebellion. And as
congressman, governor, aud score
tary Of agriculture of the United
States displayed such aptncss, up
ughuess and greatness as stamped
him one Of the most foremost and
reliable men Of the nation.
"lle has fought the good fight of
life, and dying full of honorr, has
left To his family aud his state the
memory Of an untarnished fame"

was caught between the spokes and the
vertehrtn severed.
The body was taken to Rdgely, where
all examination was made by the phySi-
clans Of the town. When il was found

LIVELY TIMES AT DOVER.
The Special Constabies Resolution
in Good Shape.

An Amendment to the New Castle Elec-
trio Railway Charter Requiring an
Overhead Crossing at Water and Market.
Special Dispatch 20 Gazette aud Journal.
DOVER, March SIN the Senate to-day
the revised statutes committee reported
the special constable resolution without
recommendation,
After debate. on motion of Mr. Filling,
the resolution was referred to the commit
tee onciies and towns which is considered
friendly to the resolution.
There is q disposition on thepart of some
Senators, however, to insist that the pro-
vision OF the &C: of 1891 relating to the
payment of these constables be repealed
before the resolution is acted on, upon The
ground that statutory provision cannot
be suspended by a joint resolution.
There was big fight in the Senate over
an overhead crossing amendment to the
Wilmington e New Castle Electric Rail
way bill. The bill was reported tayorably
with an amendment requiring overhead
crossings all along its line. 1t was contended
by Mr.. Pilling ina half-hour's speech, that
such Il crossing at Water and Market is
impracticahle, and that this is purely
local measure upon which the New Castle
Senators are united, and, therefore. Kent
and SUSSEX have no right to force amend
ments the former do not want.
Notwithstanding this protest the amend
ment was adopted by a vote Of 5to 4, as
follows;
Ayes Messrs. Records. Ross, Watson
Williams and Houston.
Naya--Messrs. Pyle, Filling, McAIullen
and Lacey.
Peter l.. Cooper then asked Mr.. Filling
to withdraw the bill as this amendment
would practically kill it.
Mr.. Filling thereupon moved that fur
ther consideration Of tho bill be postponed
After more debate the Senate took a re
cess. with this motion undecided on. Al
the New Castle members of both house;
are highly indignant at the dictaton from
Kent and Sussex in q purely local matter
and some are talking loudly of "insurrec
ton" against such control.
Peter l.. Cooper says If he cannot get tbs
charter without this amendment he will
abandon it.
Mr.. Spruance gave notice of bill tc
transfer to the Wilmington School BoarC
the extra 800 paid for Wilmington liquoi
licenses.
Also a further supplement to the vii
mington City railway charter, giving
power to borrow more money to merge
