nearly 400 persons died in New York from
the first Of October to the middle Of De-
cenber from this disease. whereas only
% died In Paris In the same period. 1t
says the French physicians were enabled
70 save at least 800 lives in the past three
months by the use Of this remedy, and
the people OF this country should provide
asufficIent quantity for the use of all at
the earliest practicable moment. During
The first six months Of this year, there
were 1Ao0 deaths In New York city from
this disease, aud to stop this fatality. 1t
contends the serum should be manufac-
tured in such quantities as to enable every
physician TO get a full supply. 1t there.
Tore urges tho rich to send'in their eontrl-
buttons In order that the needed guam tity

Some persons have thought 1t singular
that men imprisoned for gambling should
be allowed to engage in similar games In
prison and continue the practice for
which they have been deprived OF liberty.
Whatever may have been the practice OF
our sherlffs in the past. we are confident
that Mr.. Gillis will look Into the matter,
on his attention being called to 1t, and en-.
force suchrules as may DO deemed best
by the Jail commissioners, or his own
good sense may suggest. 1t is untortu.
nate that there Is not some employment
for prisoners beyond that afforded by the
stone pile. as time hangs heavily on their
hands and amusement or work of some
kind seems necessary to render prison
life endurable, Books and papers should
be supplied in abundance and thus an op.
portunlty he afforded for all prisoners to
improve their minds and go forth at the
expiration OF their term with the deter
minatlon to lead better lives and prove
themselves To be good lnw'abldiug ,citl-
zens.

Implicated In an Arkansas Crime for
which Five Men Were Hanged.
FREDERICKSBURG. Va, Dec. 27.-B. F.
Harris, of knabel, Ark, reached here yes
terday with warrant for the arrest Of
Charles j. Searcy, the Aqua Creek train
robber, for crime committed in Arkan-
sas. 1t is claimed that on the Goth Of last
August Searcy held up, In broad daylight,
at the point Of the pistol Mr.. f. b, Harris
and robbed him of 1854. Sam Martin, n
pal of Searcy's, lived next to Harris, and
found out that Harris had tho money. 1t
was Martin who placed Searcy in posses
sion Of that fact. Scarcy escaped after tho
robbery, but from the LIST until the 9th Of
September was concealed in Martins
house. On that date Searcy, Martin and
Morgantield, or Morgan, who is now held
in Cincinnati for the Aqua Creek hold up,
all left for the east, where the Aqua rob
berry was accomplished. The warrant for
Searcy's arrest has been properly Endorsed
by Virginia magistrate, but as s;earcy is
already indicted in this state he will not
be surrendered by the authorities.
Scarcy and Martin are said to be two OF
seven men concerned in the train robbery
at Oliphant, Ark, a few years ago, which
resulted in the killing of McNally, for
which five of the seven were hung, but

q. Tinker and 5. l.. Jennings, two young
men of Rochester, N. y, made a wager
during the latter part of September that
they could walk from Rochester, n. Y, to
this city, "a distance OF 400 miles, By
Christmas. They left Rochester Oct. 2,
and arrived here six days ago. The con
dition of the wager was that they should
not ride on u train, stop at hotel over
night or carry watch, and that they
should support themselves en- route ex-
ciusiyely by means taken from home. They
are both musicians, Jennings playing the
hagoclet and Tinker the ocurina, and prin-
cipaily ON these instruments they gaiued
