AQuestion Of veraclty,

A party of Russian, German settlers
from Exeter were in town the other day,
and asked the Record to state that among
the statements thrown right and left by
Edward Braddock during the recent cam
paign was one to the effect that IN no
year had his tax valuation been less than
$1,000. This statement they said that
Mr.. Braddock made IN the presence of
one American and two Russian-G Germans,
whose names they gave. They went to
the county treasurer's Office and got the
figures of Mr.. Braddock's assessment,
which they asked the Record to print,
and which are as follows:

A Claaa Call.

Ed. Church and Geo. Alsdolf, while out
on the praNle yesterday looking for their
sheep, were chased by pack of wolves.
They first noticed the wolves running
along high ridge near tho timber and
about mile away. While they were
watching the wild creatures, they noticed
them suddenly stop. and before they
could wink they made plunge down
the ridge and bee line toward the
unarmed men. Church and Alsdolf
wheeled and ran with all their might
toward an old granary, which was about
twenty rods of. When they reached
the granary they found 1t nailed up tight;
but, seeing the wolves right close on their
heels, they had to do something, and that
mighty quick. As good luck would have
it, two boards projected from the corner
OF the granary, which enabled them to
Chamber up to the roof of the building.
They didn't get there minute too soon,
as the leader of the pack got about an
inch Of cloth out of Church's pants, and
came near pulling him back to the ground.
The roof of the granary was car-shaped,
and about two inches higher than the
wolves could jump. When they saw
that the wolves could not reach them
they got right down on their knees and
gave thanks to The man who built Tic
granarY for building 1t as he did. The
wolves would jump and snarl, and bite
off pieces Of boards from the corners of
the building; hut the men were safe.
After they had stald there about two
hours the sight Of number of wheat
teams approaching scared the wolves off;
but it was not until they watched the
last tail disappear over the ridge that
they ventured down. Just now the
whole country along the timber is alive
with hunters armed to the teeth.-lnkster
Tribune.

The Death of the Priest.

Lying in silence in the dim room, the wax
lights soitening the resolute features, he rests
his folded hands upon quiet heart. The
white lilies bend over the sleeper. Alone
with God
A noiseless procession moves about the
bier, sister with the orphans to whom he
has been indeed a Father. The little boys
look on in mute awe. 1t is the first time
they have seen him so silent Many Of them
recalling the touch of the strong warm hand
and the CHEEKY voice, turn back fearful
glance as they pass out into the sunlight per.
picked by the mystery in the dim chamber
A young girl kneels beside the sleeper
and breaks the silence with her heavy sobs.
So young to shed such bitter tearsl The
trained eyes Of the sisters observe that she
is not one of the Faithful, but sometime,
somehow he has touched that heart with
his kindliness.
Two young colored men stand with bowed
heads for a moment and then give place TO
several Fathers, and thus the procession
passes-the old, the young, women and men,
priest and layman, protestant and catholic,
black and white do reverence to the priest
and good man, who for the first time "weeps
not with those who weep"
The eyes of the illustrous dead look down
upon him from their places on the wall and
we think OF the greeting they will accord
one whose life of courage and remuneration
has been inspired by their Common Father,
the Lord Jesus Christ.
Father Jacob Ambrose Walter passed
away almost suddenly on Thursday, the 9th
of April, 1894, aged 81 years. His life and
character have impressed themselves upon
the people about him He was born in Bal.
timore, Md, of an old catholic family, and
educated at st. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore.
His first appointment was at Hickory, Har-
ford county, Md. In 1860 he took charge
of ST. Patrick's Parish, in Washington City,
where his life of service ended on the 9Th
instant.

Canal Bills Killed.

Governor Brown withheld his signature
from the two canal bills passed by the Leg.
islature, and they are, therefore, "killed" by
the pocket-veto. The Governor had until
Monday night to decide on his action in re-
gard to these measures and he said that he
would not sign them.
One of the bills provided that the State
should waive all its prior liens in the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal in the interest of the
laborers' claims for work done and unpaid
from 1877 to 1890. The claims under this
bill amounted to about $4,000.
The second bill provided that the State
should waive its liens in behalf of creditors
who hold judgments against the canal.
These judgments amount to about $500, 1000.
In lengthy opinion Attorney-General
Poe advised the Governor to veto these bills
In speaking of the bills and his veto Gov
ernor Brown said:
1.-THE canal bills as drawn do not meet the
object desired. shall in the near future
arrange for the auditing of the judgments
and accounts SO as to present them to the
next General Assembly in such form as to
enable that body to deal with the question
accurately and definitely without embar-
RAISING the States interest or its action so
far as the future of the canal is concerned.
This delay does not in the least impair any
interest in these unsettled accounts, as un.
der the present legal restrictions surround
ing the canal no settlement is likely to be
reached before the fall of 1895. Certainly 1t
cannot be the desire of any one of the claim
ants to embarrass the State or to throw OBJ
stacles in the way of settlement in some
form by which the State could receive q
sufficient moneyed consideration to enable
It to at least meet the outstanding obliga-
tons of the canal.
81 am sure when the opinion of the attor-
ney-general is carefully examined and due
consideration given to the arguments offered
that all parties interested in the result aimed
at by the bills referred to will willingly and
cheerfully concede that their interests are
much more likely to be subserved by de-
liberate and careful investigation into the
accuracy of each and all Of these accounts
than by any measure which undertakes to
deal with an unknown quantity. These
bills seem also to be in conflict with the
spirit, if not the letter, of the constitution
(section 80, article 81
AFTER giving the most careful considera-
ton to the proposed measures, and with all
the sympathy possible for the claimants and
bearing in mind the responsibility that
would, in my judgment, assume OF embar-
RAISING the State in its final settlement or
disposition of this property, am compelled
10 withhold my signature, with the hope
that the question can be submitted to the
next General Assembly in such form as will
enable it to- act promptly and more satistac-
torily to all interests involved"

The Genuine Oliver Chilled Plows made only
by the Oliver Chilled Plow Works, South
