Ah Him, Chinaman, who has
been in the employ of NJ. McInerny
for over eleven years, was burned to a
crisp last evening in fire in the rear
of the McInerny premises on Judd
street. The body was absolutely unre-
cognizable when it was found, being
burned to cinder.
At 7:45 an alarm was turned in by
the Bell Telephone central office. En-
gine No. 1, the chemical, and the
supply hose answered the call, but
arrived too late to save the burning
house. The flames, however, Were
prevented from spreading by the good
work of the department.
The cause of the fire is not known.
The Chinaman, All Him, occupied
the building alone. He had attended
wedding during the day, and re-
turned after dark. He went to his
room, and shortly afterwards the
building was in flames. All Him was
seen to come out of the building, and,
soon afterward, to rush back again.
He was not seen alive after that.
When the engines arrived, the
house was in full blaze, and it was
evident that nothing could save
it. The firemen, however, did
what they could, and succeeded in
keeping the flames from spreading to
the adjoining buildings, which would
assuredly have caught fire had it
not been for their efforts.
When the flames had burnt them
selves out, search was made for the
body of the Chinaman. AT last it was
found among the ashes of the build
ing, by Chief Hunt and Captain of
Police Andrews. The body was SIM
ply mass of charred flesh, and pre-
sented a sickening sight to its finders.
The form of the man remained, and
that was all that would enable one to
tell that the blackened object was once
human being. The body was placed
in a sack, and put in one of the out
houses, where it will remain until
this morning, when an inquest will
be held on it.
The cause of the fire is unknown.
1t is supposed, however, that the un-
fortunate man overturned his lamp,
and thus set the house afire. AS the
building was in remote portion of the
yard, Mr.. McInerny was totally un-
aware of the fire until it had gained
considerable headway.
The other Cinnamon in the vicinity
would not say much about the occur
renee, claiming that they knew moth
ing whatever of the matter. They
were greatly excited during the con-
f1agration, which drew large crowd
of natives as well.
The dead man, as was said before,
had been with Mr.. McInerny for
eleven years, in the capacity of yard
man. He was a hard worker and was
much liked by his employer. it is
supposed that when he went into the
house the second time he intended
to try and save some money which he
had in trunk in his room.
The building was insured for $3.50
in the Sun Insurance Company, and
is a total loss.

Refused a Passport.

At last, it has been discovered
when J. w. Brown arrived. Ac-
cording to his own statement, he
was put ashore at Lahaina on the
18th ultimo. He came from the
Sound in sealer named Helen.
All this was learned on Saturday
when Brown called at the Custom
House for a passport. 1t was re-
fused him on the ground that the
clerk did not know whether or not
his statement was correct. Brown
will have an interview with the
tax-collector today, and if he can
convince that officer that he is not
liabS for personal taxes, the pass
port will be issued.

stole second. Holt made base hit to
center, and, on McNicors tumble,
got second, while Hart came home.
Pryce then lined out a two -bagger to
center field, and Holt crossed the
plate. AHA knocked the ball well
into the center field, and the hit would
only have given him one base had not
the ball bounced crooked, and Carter
was unable to stop it. AHA got to

home. McCorriston hit to Lucas and
was put out, leaving AHA on third.
The Crescents managed TO get three
runs in the fourth. Lisbman got his
first on a tumble by Hart. Ross hit
safe to left and advanced Lishman,
and Angus got his base on balls. This
filled the bases, and McNicol came
nobly to the rescue with a two bagger
and brought in Lishman and Ross.
Angus was on third by this time, and
McNicol led off his base far enough to
tempt Pryce to throw to second and
Angus came home. McNicol was
caught between second and third and
put out, but his play was clever one
and added run to the Crescents'
score. Lucas and III. Wilder were
soon retired. The Hawaiis made one
run in this inning on base on balls
by Hart, a stolen second, and hit by
Willis.

Ex-PREsTDENT HARRISON SPEAKS
The Republican State Convention
for Indiana was held at Indianapolis
on April rs. Ex-President Harrison
was enthusiastically cheered when he
was led to the platform, and he made
a short and stirring speech. He re-
futed the idea that the present de.
preston is only a periodic panic and
showed by facts that the cause
was IN the attempt to wipe out the
protection idea and to submit to the
doctrines of revenue tariff only.
He showed that the workingman to-
day was realizing the impossibility
to separate himself from his employ
er, and that he must not listen to
the vicious appeals for him to strike
at his employer and give blow that
will recoil upon his own head. He
said: "The times are full of unrest,
disaster and apprehension. | believe
to-day that all the tumult of this
wild sea would be stilled as by the
voice of omnipotence if the great in
dustrial and commercial classes of
this country could know to-day that
there would be no attempt to strike
down protection in American legis-
lation.n
His closing words we're: "Every
man, l have always commended, has a
right honorably to seek office, and
that a President had no right to
complain that his time was somewhat
occupied in attending to them. APP
plause.l But there is one conten-
ton that goes with all this that must
not be forgotten. When a man has
honorably, earnestly by appeal to
his friends or to the appointing pow
er, sought a nomination and failed
he is altogether to be reprohated if
he carries his grievance home with
him and deserts his party. So, in
advance, 1 appeal to this large body
who are to be disappointed to day to
put themselves at the front in cheer
ing for their more fortunate com
petitors.n

LIQUOR LICENSES State Jour
nal is in receipt of answers from the
mayors of Grafton ahd Martinsburg
in reply to the saloon license in those
towns.
In Grafton the corporation license
is $500 year.
In Martinsburg the license is very
low, being only $40 a year-$5O to
retail spirituous liquors, and to re-
tail malt liquors, 500.
The mayor Of Martinsburg very
kindly furnishes the additional infor,
nation that the number of saloons
licensed in 1894 is smaller than in
1898; the total city revenues from
saloon license in 1898 being $1,000
and in 1894 only 1920.
The license in Martinsburg is prob
ably lower than in any other town in
West Virginia, and Parkersburg
probably comes next, being $3.50

GRAVEYARD VANDALIsM.-One of
the most degrading acts of vandal-
ism that has been heard of recently,
took place in Shepherdstown Tues
day night, Some unknown persons
entered the German Reformed
Church Cemetery there, knocked
down and broke about seven monu-
ments and tombstones. One of them
on the lot belonging to the Koontz
family has the appearance of having
been broken with a sledge or some
heavy hammer. There is no clue to
the guilty parties as yet. The COM
munity is very much shocked and no
effort will be spared to find out who
done the inhuman act and see that
they are given the punishment that
should be melted out to such seroun-
drels. This is a piece of barbarlsm,
the like of which has not been heard
of in this section of the country re-

felt but slightly, and the cost of
annual cultivation would not be in
creased. Culture for either crop and

grown, trees 35 feet apart each way,
is estimated worth $500 per acre by
competent authority. Order the

borers.
