A FIGHT WITH MANIACS.
Desperate Attempt OF Insane Criminal'
20 Escape from New
York Asylum.

general uprising of the inmates of one Of
the wards Of the state asylum for insane
criminals In Auburn, New York, took place
last week. Ward Six In the asylum contains
tifty-scven patients, among whom are some Of
the most desperate criminals in the country.
Numerous attempts hvve been previously
made in this ward to overpower the attendant
and effect escape, and on nearly every oe-
casion the ringlender OF the revolt has been
Edward Meredith
Head Attendant LucIe who was In charge
OF the ward, was approached by Meredith, who
pulled out a slung-shot which he had kept
concealed in his clothing and dealt Lueie "A
terrific blow in the back OF the neck, render
Ing him unconscious. At the moment the
blow was struck, number OF Mcredlth's as
sociates who were in the secret rushed into
the room together and they secured the chest
of dozen razors with which the attendants
shave the convicts weekly. With the formid-
able weapons and a number OF sung-shots
similar to the one carried by Meredith, thirty
Of the inmates OF the ward charged upon the
attendants and made a determined dash for
liberty.
In a short time twenty five physicians at
tendants, guards and laborers at work in the
building appeared upon the scene For thir-
ty minutes pandemonlum reigned. The Of
ficers grasped anything within their reach
for weapons and bravely undertook to quell
the disturbance
The mad rush OF the demoniacal convIcts wns
stayed, but they continued to brandlsh their
razors and threaten the life OF any one who
dared TO arrest their progress.
The ringleaders were finally forced from
the hall into an adjoining room, when num-
Der of attendants rushed up with line Of
hove from a fire plug and huge stream OF
water was turned upon the rebels This heroic
treatment quickly cooled their ardor and the
backbone OF the enuete was broken. The
| conyicts quickly capitulated, laid down their
weapons and returned pen!tently to their
cells

In New York the other day the Samuel j.
T'llden estate, after year Of litigation which
cost over 500 900, was settled, and the rcspcc-
tive heirs have their shares of the estate. The
exact amount divided has not been made pub
lie, but it is understood that the total value of
the estate was $500, 900, and that after setting
aside 500 900 for contingencies the balance
was divided Into twelve shares of s-i5O, 900 of
which each OF the children of Henry A. Tilden
brother OF samIal j. Tildcn had one while
the remaining six shares went to the Tllden
trust for public library, diminished, however,
by the 81 100000 which the executors paid Mrs
Hazard in compromise Of her claim. Mrs
Hazard Is the sole descendant Of Mrs. Petlon

mise made before the decision Of the Court Of
Appeals she would have received II the figures
given are correct, about g. 100000. a report

The Eleventh Lesson.

In every respect It will bo observed
that the pen aud pencil differ from each
other. The question as to tho merits OF
each for reporting purposes has been dis
cussed to q considerable extent by MEM
bers of the profession. Those reporters
who employed pencil while learning,
never afterwards giving tho pen fair
trial, OF course regard the pencil with
the greater favor. OF those who havo
fairly tested both, the majority prefer tho
pen. The advantages OF each may DO
seen from the following comparison.
!. Pen work i, permanent; pencil
writing fades out In few years.
2. Notes taken with pen arc black
and easy to read; pencil writing Is hard
on tho eyes, and for this one important
reason a pencil should be used as little
IS possible.
8. Writing with gold pen, which is
yielding, sensitive instrument, Is much
less fatisuing than manipulating PEN
ell, which Is stif and infle1ible.
Proper names are so numerous that a
vocabulary of them could not well be mem-
orizcd; aud this would be unnecessary,
since the practical writer may readily
invent sufficiently Ineligible outlines for
the most diiIlcult of them. The halying
principle, circles, loops and other ad-
unctive signs should be employed more
sparingly than when writing common
words.
The learner who always cultivntes a
compact style of writing will in the end
be both more rapid aud accurate. BY
,ompactness of style is meant that tho
characters be written not only small, but
:losely together. The handwriting of
most all beginners is too large and sprawl

The Burlington's Fast Time Between
Denver and Chicaso-It VIII Go
Into Eject April 2A.

For some time past there has been consider
able agitation in railroad circles over the mat
ter OF fast time and the ability Of eastern lnes
to shorter up the time between Denver and
Chicago. Many have claimed that the pres
| ent schedule, averaging about thirty-iivt
| miles an hour, Is fast enough, and inasmueh
as 1t places passengers In Chicago early the
| second morning and In ample time for all
eastern connections there is no necessity for
any change The fact, however, that the
| Burlington's famous No. has for years made
| the run from Chicago to Denver In twenty.
nine hours has caused the travelling public
to inquire why the same time Is not made
east-bound. This inquiry has grown until II
now amounts to almost demand, and Bur
llngton company, with its usual progressive
spirit In all matters pertaining to the public
welfare, proposes TO meet 1t.
Under the new schedule, which goes into
effect next Sunday, April "A, two additional
fast trains will be put on, making three
through trains daily each way between Den.
yer and Chicago. The new train eastbound
to be known as the Chicago special" will
leave Denver at 9 O'Clock a. III. and reach
Chicago at . p. m, the next day, making the
run, after deductlng one hour for change
from mountain to central time, in twenty
eight hours, and beating the famous No. rs
time just one hour. The time of the special"
10 Omaha will be thirteen hours and forty-hve
minutes, thus enabling passengers to leave
Denver and arrive at Omaha the same day,
and Chicago with only one night out
No 3, the fast mail, - will be the new train
west bound, and will leave Chicago with pas
sengers at 10: 30 p. m. The fast mail will
leave Chicago at 8 o'clock a. M, overtaking
the passenger at Ashland, Nebraska, and
arriving in Denver at 10 o'clock the second
morning.
This will give the Burlington route the
four fastest trains in the West, one of them
being faster than the celebrated Pennsylvania
limited
Some arc inclined to ionbt the ability Of
the Burlington people to make this time, but
the regularity with which their No. !, leaving
Chicago at / o'clock every afternoon and ar
riying In Denver nt 6:l5 the next evening,
rolls into the union depot every day, together
with the phenomenal speed they have recent
ly made with special theatrical trains, dem.
onstrates that they possess both the track
and the equipment to make the time with
safety.
This movement on the part of the Burling-
ton management to give Denver the benefit
of three such fast trains daily and a service
that Is unsurpassed by any railroad in the
land. will no doubt be duly appreciated by
our citizens aud the public generally, and
should, as It doubtless will rebound in an in
creased business to this already popular line.

How do you like it?" asked the host
Exquisite. replied the marquis.
Then" said Lord Beverly, finish
the glass; only in II full glass can ono
