Samuel Morss, editor OF the Indianap-

notorious during the Cleyeland-Blaine
campaign Of 1884 by aspersing the char

about tho tombstone OF her dead babe
in searh Of proof that she had not been
married the proper length Of time when
il was born, Mr.. Blaine made tho mis-
take OF suing Morss for libel instead OF
pumping a buCketiul OF buckshot into
his rotten carcass. Had he chosen the
latter course no power on earth could
have prevented his elevation to the
presidency. Blaine owed II to his wife,
to his dead babe, to his own self
respect, to his party, to kill Morss
aud to kill him so dead that Cab

steam foghorn. He failed to do his
duty and lost the presidency, as he well
deserved to do. And now Blaine has
gone down to his grave disappointed

CHICAGO, april 1.-THE strike at the

and they and tho exposition officials
were too busy to discuss or express

the end Of tho exposition, no discrimi-
nation against eitherunion or non-union
men and the business agents OF the
unions to have free access to the
grounds so long as they do not material

The Worlds Fair officials to-day in
creased the landscape force to almost
1000 men. These mon are working q
wonderful transformation. The great
gang is commencing up at the north
end OF the grounds where the state and
administration stands. AS the wave Of

LONDON, April 1.-THE would-be as
sassin OF King Carlos yesterday turned
out to be prominent society man and
a member Of the aristocracy. He denies
having any political ends to serve. and
it is not thought that no belongs to any
political party. The assassin is either
insane or suffering with delirium tre-

the horses, which the king himself was
driving, and addressed very insulting
language to his majesty before firing
the shot His name is Levi. The king
had never seen him before. OF 80 little
Importance did his majesty consider
the affair that he calmly continued his
drive, while Levi was taken to prison.

An article in the Pittsburgh DispGtch
describes the stone mine which ia being
so successfully worked near that city.
" has demonstrated that mining for
stone is not only great deal cheaper
than the old method Of quarrying, in
vogue everywhere else in the country,
but it Is more desirable in many other
ways. Following is the article in full,
It will interest quarrYmen elsewhere
and not be void OF interest to builders:
Up on the side OF Gazzan's Hill, in
the Thirteenth ward, q new method Is
in practice OF conducting one OF the
Oldest industries OF Western Pennsyl-
vania. When tue white man made his
appearance in the forests OF Western
Pennsylvania his first work was to cut
down trees and build house OF logs,
As civilization advanced he improved
on this style and from the lodges Of
rock on the hillsides quarried stone and
erected better dwellings, Ever since
the business Of quarrying stone has
been ono Of the most important Of this
section Of the state, and each year the
demand has been growing greater.
OF late this demand, from the great
strides Pittsburgh has been taking, has
become enormous. The finer grades OF
stone for the larger class OF structures
have, Of course, been brought from
other places, but the quarries in and
around Pittsburgh must still supply
the stone for the foundation walls for
all the buildings. This has been be-
cause the local stone is the cheaper.
Az a result OF this constant demand the
quarriea OF Pittsburgh are rapidly dis
appearing. The work has been con-
fined to the face stone along the sides
OF the hilla, and comparatively little
could be taken out from one place. As
the work would progress the earth
above. or the stripping, as it is called,
would increase to such thickness that
the expense OF removing 1t to get out
more stone would not be warranted by
the returns. In this way quarry after
quarry has been worked out and now
almost all the stone easily gotten at has
gone. Besides houses are covering the
hilltops and available locations are be-
coming fewer.
