DEBT LESS CASH IN TREASURY.

Here it is seen that during the four
years ending June 30, 1892, the nation
al debt, less cash in the treasury, de-
creased by $i34, Alb, 2s6. 90, or at the
rate of So. 05 per head of our population.
This showing is slightly different from
that made during the first year of the
present administration, which added al
most S75, 900, 900 to the national debt.
1t is of further interest TO study the
amount of interest paid on the national
debt within the same period, which, it
will be seen. decreased by 81 ,623, 36s,
or at the rate of 10 cents per capita:

Mrs. William Gerseicher, q German
woman of Wilkes Barre, who has been
deserted by her husband, tells very
sad story of wanton cruelty. Several
years ago in Europe Mrs. Gerseicher
married August Engle. Soon after this
marriage the young couple came to this
country, locating in New York city,
where the husband opend drug store,
and for eight years conducted very
profitable business. Then he died and
his body was cremated, and the ashes
placed in a costly urn, which the widow
treasured.
Some time after she married William
Gerseicher and the couple went to
Wilkes-Barre to live. Then their trou-
bles commenced. He beat her, stole her
jewels and sold them in order to provide
himSe with money When the Jewels
were gone he told her he was going to
sell the urn containing the dust of her
first husbands remains. She implored
him not to touch it, but he laughed and
brutally seized it and actually threw
the dust over the woman. Mrs. Ger

he had disappeared. She complained
to the police, who found he had sold
the urn and left the Citv.

A Sandy Run Christening.

The next case to require the service
of the borough police was call from
Sandy Run. A christening celebration
there during the day brought together
many Hungariaus, and between some of
them the best of feeling did not exist.
As the time wore on threats and chal-
lenges were exchanged, and shortly af-
ter dark the inevitable fight took place.
Andrew Panko, with a companion left
the house of festivities, for short walk
lie had not proceeded far until he was
set upon by Andrew IIudak and Tony
Cochen, who in a few minutes had his
forehead gashed and ripped open and
his clothing covered with blood.
Andrew came to town and after hav-
ing his wounds dressed swore out war
rant. Officers Dan Gallagher and Jones
went after Hudak and Cochen and at !
o'clock had them before Squire Buckley.
Both men were sent to the borough bas-
tile in default of 5000 bail each. They
