A Triple Tragedy.

Harry Krooz, for many years station
agent of the Harlem railroad, at Philmont,
n. Y, shot and killed his father-in-law
and assistant, George jacob, and then
killed himself on Friday. The shooting
occurred in the station only few minutes
before the arrival of a passenger train.
Krooz had been discharged, and the relief
agent was on the train, which arrived
shortly after the tragedy, occurred to relieve
him. There is said to be no shortage in
his accounts, but he had become careless
in doing business.

100000 Men Have Had Wages Adj

The Chicago Tribune presents list of
$50 firms and companies which have adj
vanced wages during the past few weeks.
Not less than 100000 men have been af-
fected and the advance will average nearly
II per cent. Almost without an exception
the wages have been advanced voluntarily.
The total number of workers who succeed
ed and partially succeeded in winning an
increase of pay in the great strikes of 1886
was only few thousands larger than this
vast company of men who have received
more pay without so much as asking for it..

Fi,ibusterers Looking at Hawaii. -

For several weeks there has been much
anxiety among the colony of Hawaiian
exiles whose headquarters are at the Oc-
cidental House, San Francisco. Hawaiian
Consul Wilder has revealed the secret of
this activity, which is the organization of a
new filbustering expedition, to carry 100
picked men and large supply of arms and
ammunition to Hawaii. Wilder is scepti
cal of the real strength of the expedition,
but still he admits that the eXiles are des-
perate men and that they have a strong
financial backing. Many of these men
will be ruined if forced to abandon much
longer their property interests in Hawaii,
and they are ready for any desperate
scheme which promises to change the
government at Honolulu. 1t is known
that the arms and ammunition have been
ordered at the East.

Lady Maude, by Young Trustee.

T linden was foaled July 2, 1886, is rich bay
IL in color, stands 15--2 and weighs 1913 pounds
He is of kind disposition and his conformation is
of the best. Linden has proved himself game
race horse and his record of 2:15 is no limit to
his speed, as he has repeatedly shown quarters in
81 seconds. He took first premium over all
stations at the Valley Fair, Brattleboro, Vt. in
1898. He is very attractive horse and has many
admirers.
Linden will make the season of 1895 at Brattle-
boro, Vt, on the fair grounds where he can be
seen after May /, He will be in charge of c. c.
Winchester, No. l Chestnut street, Brattleboro,
who now has him at his stable with fine Linden
colt.
Linden is getting some very nice colts which
will no doubt be heard from later on. This Will
undoubtedly be the last season that the public
will have an opportunity to breed to Linden for

DELAYED STATISTICS.

Persons who have sought TO keep track or the
doipcs of city bosses have had experience OF
official reluctance to allow access to puDhc
documents. One Of the favorite methods Win
Tammany and the Mclaughlin ring OF avoid
ing exposure Of their mismanagemeht was 10
keen as many records as possible out or sighl

stress Of stealing q State, the Hill-Maynard
combination tried the same tacncs ana pre-
vented correspondents from gaining access 10
election returns while the schemes OF 1alsinca-
tion were being concocted 1t is new thlng'
however to find the Federal Government delay
ing the publication of statistics for the apparent
nurpose Of concealing the incompetence OF the
Administration.
The official returns of imports and exports
are Of great value to persons engaged in COM
morce rs well as to students Of finance and
economies. Hitherto they have been published
promptly and regularly, and every aid has been
given by department officials to inQulrers, and

VORE FOR TIE NEEDY.

A committee OF the New-iorh Charities Con
ference has undertaken TO carry out scheme
Of assigning vacant lands in and near THIS CITY
to the unemployed, to be worked by them Tor
the raising OF crops. The hard times have left
many worthy men without work, and 1t is not
likely that their troubles will entirely cease
with the spring and summer. Any chance to
provide for their own wants by honest labor
will be eagerly accepted by those worthy or
aid, and the plan Of giving them work as pro-
posed offers many advantages. 1t IS labor
test" TO applicants 1t is productive, and gives
to each person the fruit OF his own toll, and at
the same time Is non-competitive with estab-
lished industry. The potatoes raised by work
man on q vacant lot will not lower the price OF
the staple nor diminish the sales OF n green
grocer. Charity by public works Is objected to
by craftsmen who want to do 1t at higher rates
OF wages, and only by the greatest care can 1t
be made anything but wasteful for the careless
and incompetent want the same wages as the
skilled and faithful, and when the money pay
ment is frankly made not for the value of the
work but for the sake Of giving the needy sub
sistence. It is difficult to resist the plea. A man
can work vacant land at odd times and get
