DIED AFTER fl CLUBBING.
John Curley, a Paper Carrier of Newark,
 Maltceated by Four Policeman.

John Curley, a Paper Carrier of Newark, Maltreated by Four Policeman. New York, July 1.-John Curley, pa per carrier, aged nineteen, of 53 Adams street, Newark, died yesterday in po- lice station cell in that city, after being roughly handled by four policemen who had arrested him for drunken ness. The policemen are Michael Long, John Smith and two others, who came later in response to, calls. The boys companions say that Smith struck Cur ley in the face with his fist when he first saw him, and clubbed him unrneci- fully.
 Curley was fighting with Patrolman Long and had torn clothes. Edward Farrell ran up to Smith and begged him to stop clubbing the boy. Doorman Joyce and the policeman supported the young man to cell, as he could scarcely stand.
 Two hours later the doorman discov- cred that Curley was dead. His friends think that there is no doubt that he died from maltreatment at the hands of the police; but County Physician FL liott says he thinks that the young mans death was due to alcoholism He found no marks on the body, he said.
 Curley went on a spree on Friday night and was fighting with @ friend who was trying to prevent him from insulting men and women on the street. Policeman Long tried to stop the fight, and Curley turned on him and kicked him in the abdomen.

Robert Ingersoll In speech before a philosophical circle at Tom Paine's tomb at New Rochelle berntcd the min isters of the country for not giving to Tom Paine the credit that was due him. We are willing to give to Tom Paine or anyone else all the credit that is due them. Two years ago l stood at the tomb of Tom Paine and at my side was n native of New Rochelle. who said that his father had seen Tom Paine car ried In q drunken condition 10 his house We pity poor Tom. But it was not by the weakness and skepticism of such men as he that tho country was made free. but rather by men like Washing ton-men of faith and prayer.
 I said that the spirit of Christ. which obtained freedom for man, was the spirit of sacrifice. Was there not a similar spirit In the hearts of the found- CTS of the countryp In this day, In which we enjoy SO much, it Is very ditil- cul. for us to understand how much tho men of the Revolution suffered and sacrificed. They fought not for them- selves, neither for their own honor. but for right and freedom. The same spirit of sacrifice that they possessed is still needed. Without 1t there. Is but little hope of a country. Mere sentiment will not save us from impending dangers. It's not those that boast of great things that are to-day the ccuntry's preserv- CTS.
 A few weeks ago there met In Chicago representatives of what Is known as the Church of Humanity. "The seal of the organization is an outline of the earth, across the equator of which Is inscribed the word Humanity Around this are grouped the words Knowledge Jus tice,' Love- 'Revarcnce.' All of this sounds well and is very fine, but when proposed that they come out from other denominations and be q distinct body and stand nobly by their principles the motion was voted down. It's not those that talk about humanity. and the rights of humanity that are always the best defenders of the country, but those that by their humble toll and sacrifice do what they can to keep the country and make her great.
 In conclusion the speaker alluded to the dangers to the country from great industrial troubles. He said that we are in the midst of a great strife, which can never be fully settled until there comes back to the hearts of Americans the old spirit of self-denial and self sacrifice, and this spirit must be pos- sessed by all, both the laborer and the capitalist.

THE FINANCIAL problem connected
with the proposed building Of q rail
road from Williamsport to Bingham
ton has been solved by an individual
named Pickett, who resides at Mon
trose. Mr.. Pickett, who has hitherto
been known to fame az the inventor OF
a gas pipe hand sled, comes forward
with the suggestion that the money
necessary 10 build the road be raised
by an advance sale OF mileage books.
He intimates that this scheme would be
much better than distribution Of stock
from which the people might never
get returns. The mileage books. I'M
like stock, would be exempt from troub-
lesoms assessments, and In case of fl.
nancial stringency might be util'
lied as currency in rural districts.
Upon reflection this plan seems
worthy of the consideration OF the pro-
jectors Of the enterprise. II the road
is built upon cash raised in the man
nar above suggested. the investors
along the line will be enabled to take n
good many rides behind the iron horse
during the next few years. The man
ner in which the road will derive rev
enue for running expenses during the
years required to redeem the advance
sale Of tickets has not been explained,
but there is no question that the re-
volving machinery in Mr.. Picketts
head will turn out an idea at the
proper time.

Bitterness exists among the believers
Of Spiritualism at Shamokin over the

HosnitaI.

Among the institutions devised by
philanthropy for the good OF mankind,
none is more worthy of liberal support
than the free hospital. The care of the
sick and afflicted is one of the strong
est obligations enioined by Christian
civilization. a high degree Of which is
evidenced in every community where
we'll equipped and bountiEully endowed
hospitals exist. On the other hand the
absence of such may ba considered as
indicating the prevalence of q spirit
exactly opposite that by which the
good Samaritan of TIE New Testament
was actuated.
The foregoing observation is simply
preliminary to the remark that the
Lackawanna hospital of this city has
for n long time been greatly hampered
in its work by the lack Of funds. 1t is
truly a deserving institution but can =
not long remain a credit to the people
of Scranton, unless it receives from
oar citizens moro encouraging support
than has Of late been extended to it.
Money is needed to defray legitimate
running expenses and provide needed
improvements to the end that the pro.
per care and treatment of patients may
be insured.
Tt does not seem, however, that the
citizens of Scranton, whose reputation
for generous giving ia SO wide spread,
need be strongly appealed 20 in behalf
of the Lackawauna hospital. The mere
publication Of the fact that its good
work is retarded because Of the lack of
financial support ought to be sufficient
TO loosen the purse-strings of the rich
philanthropistsin our midst, and at the
same time call forth generous contri =
buttons from all other classes. at any
rate it is sincerely to be hoped that the
means required for the future support
and improvement of this institution
may speedily be forthcoming from
some source.
Yesterday every bed in all the wards
of the hospital was occupied, which
pertinent fact can be added to the
above without explanation.

that life went out with a gasp before
the knife was dropped upon his neck.
Scarcely q week passes that u senti-
mental cry against capital punishment
does not arise from come quarter. All
over the land are spriukled well mean
ing people who think it too bad that
red.handed cut-throats and bomb
throwers should be punished. They
prefer that murderers should enjoy
safe berths for life at the expense of
the people in some prison where flow
ers can be- sent in occasionally. Cases
like that of Henry should demonstrate
the foolishness Of such theories. The
prison has no terrors for the average
criminal. 1t is the electrical chair,
hangman's knot and the Ruillotine
that keep q check npon enterprises OF
