Nogale's Bank, lewiston postofce, San
Simon postoffice, station and store; STEMS

Killed in Cubo.

Cuban advices, received at London, say
that Canadian was murdered at Glen
fuegos, Province of Santa Clara, at the
end of October. The mans name is said
TO be Dalbrigeon. According to the state
ment made, three men entered his house
and being informed that Dalbrigeon was
not well, forced an entrance into his bed
room and shot him dead. One version of
the affair attributes the murder 10 the in

the work of Spaniards. The General
Government OF Spain is investigating the

his own political friends, by bolting
Democrats and by Cleveland office

cold brine is supplied to the air in the

Production of Victoria for 1896 Will
Be About 10000 Ounces.
Consul General Maratta writes to the
Department of State from Melbourne on
the mint returns for the quarter ended
Sept. 80. For the first nine months of
the current year the mint received only
152,259 ounces of gold from Western
Australia, against 160,919 last year, a
decrease of $500 ounces. Victoria has,
up to the present time, supplied 5S0,330
ounces, against 526,570 for the CORE
spending period of 1895, and if the same
rate of increase is continued the produc-
tica of the colony for 1896 will be about
10000 ounces. Imports of gold from
New Zealand and Tasmania show large
increases, but much less has been re-
ceived from South Australia.

MIsER TORTURED BY ROBBERS.
Fiends Try TO Extort Hiding Place of
Old Mans Wealth


Some time Monday night three burg
lars broke into the house occupied by
John Mirka, a miser, at AS East Pros
pect street, Cleveland. Mirka is 72 years
old. He lives alone and has generally
been credited with having large sums of
money secreted in his house. Upon his
refusal TO tell the burglars where his
money was hidden he was beaten in 4
terrible manner. This punishment fail
ing to force the information from the old
man, he was bound, gagged and a lamp
flame applied 10 his feet until the flesh
was literally cooked. The old man
writhed in agony. but protested he had no
money. The iiends then applied the flame
10 the suffering mans hands and then to
his body until he finally sank uncon-
scious. in which condition he was found
early in the morning. 1t is believed the
burglars got nothing. There is no clew
to their identity

Tariff Tax or Gold Bonds,


Republican papers are now demand
Ing that President Mckinley convene
an extra session next spring for the
consideration of the tariff question.
General Tracy, in an interview, de-
clares that the crying need of the hour
is an increase of taxes.
1t is almost always the case that in
creased taxes follow on Republican
triumph, but in the present case it Is a
question whether even q new tariff tax
can save the Government from constant
borrowing of money. at interest, to
meet expenses, and to keep up the
gold standard. Nor is it at all certain
that the administration can force

cans of the Senate gave notice, when
the Dingley bill came before them.

an extra session as an opportunity to
reform their party lines and unite
their divided forces.
There is also the fact to he taken into
consideration that the practical aban-
donment of the tariff as an issue, in the
recent campaign. has let into the lower
House of Congress Il number of Repub-
lican members who are by no means in
accord with Mckinley in his extreme
protectionist views.
1t therefore seems very possible that.

upon President Cleveland for his bond

and orators, President Mckinley may
find himself driven to the same resource

Gotham Police Unearth a Gang Who
Have Been Fleeing the Public.
The New York police have unearthed
the most extensive gang of swindlers the
city has ever known. There are over
fifty men implicated, and their method
was to buy up business houses whose
financial rating was good, and then float
thousands of dollars of worthless paper
on the public. Their territory extended
all over the land and embraced all kinds
of business They had agents in Chi
cago, Boston, Philadelphia, and all the
principal cities of the country. The re-
cent attempt of a young girl to commit
suicide because she was compelled to
pass worthless checks led to the first
general exposure of the gang.

the temperature in the Senate should
change one degree either too warm or too
cool, the device shuts off the hot air sup

cool, the supply of cold air is restricted
in a similar way.
The air supply, whether heated for win

The paneling of the gallery walls has
been renewed and painted in lighter and
more modern designs, and the lower walls
of the chamber have been restored and
colored in light pearl, with gold damask

been restored in an improved form, and
