the item of 1912 hours was a mistake
and that the correct item is 1912 days
as in the ledger. II thus appears that
plaintiffs testimony is not definite as
to what is the fact, but is merely what
he thinks over a year after the work
was done and that this opinion is based
on what a third person, a friend, had
copied into the ledger. The best evil
dence is the plaintiffs own slips of pa
per and day books from which the third
party copied into the ledger. The item
appears in one Of the day books as
1872 hours work horses" That this
is the item from which the copy in the
ledger OF 1872 ddyS work with horses
was made. is clear from its date, its
position with respect TO other items
and the absence of any other item
from which the copy could have been
made. And the item was inserted in
the same way by the plaintiff in an
earlier bill presented by him to the de-
PENDANTS in Washington, 1872 hours
work on road for Horses" 1t may be
added that the accounts appear to have
been loosely kept and that, as found by
the trial judge, there were number of
mistakes in plaintiffs bill. On the
whole we think the evidence such as TO
indicate a mistake of the facts or of
the nature of the evidence on the part
of the trial court rather than that the
opinion was against the weight of the
evidence, and that a new trial should be
had unless the plaintiff RENTS 5000
and propOrtiOnate amount of interest.
Exceptions were also taken to the al
lOwance of the item of S1S596 for team
ing, and to the refusal to allow credit
of $54.70 claimed to have been paid to
the plaintiffs attorney in Washington,
and to the refusal to allow credits
amounting to $2S.64 and debts amount
ing to S21.26, dated after the appoint
ment of the receiver. The facts as they
appear are such that it is difficult if not
impossible to say with much assurance
of correctness exactly what should or
should not be allowed in respect of
these items and after careful consider
alton we are unable to say from these
facts that the trial court erred.
A new trial should be had on the is
sue relating to plaintiffs status upon
which a new trial has already been
ordered on the first bill of exceptions;
if the decision upon that issue shall be
for the receiver, the judgment rendered
for the plaintiff should be vacated; but
if for the plaintiff, then a new trial
should be had upon all the issues I'M
less plaintiff RENTS 5000 and interest
thereon.

A Model Plant is not complete with
out Electric Power, thus dispensing
with small engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station? One gener-
ator can furnish power to your Pump,
Centrifugals, Elevators, Plows, Rail-
ways and HOSTS; also furnish light
and power for a radius of from 10 to &c
miles.
Electric power being used saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with high-priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available it
costs nothing to generate Electric

TUESDAY EVENING, MAE. 10, 1856
HE KILLED TEN.

One of the most terrible tragedies
ever enacted st Brockyille, Dat, oc-
curre,l shortly before noon yesterday,
resulting in the instant death OF one
man, the probable fatal woupding of
TWO or three others, and the injury OF
seven more.
About fifteen minutes to twelve a
man named Lapoint made his appear
ance on Perth street, carrying double
bsrrelled breech loading shotgun.
When almost opposite the Opera
House block be met an old man PANIED
Peter Moore, and, raising the gun to
his shoulder, took deliberate aim and
SHOT him dead.
Chi.f OF Police Rose was coming out
of his Office at police headquarters at
hi moment and ran towards the scene
o' h, tragedy. Lapnint shot at him,
| tae charge taking effect i'll his head
aud breast
Lspoint then fired at an old Indian
named Dickson. who was standing
near the corner, the charge entering
his head and neck. Constable Linsley
now arrived on the scene and found
Lapoint, who had his pocket full OF
cartridges, shooting right aud left. a
urge crowd had gathered, but every
body was afraid to go near Lapolnt,
who was evidently insane.
Linsley shot at Lapoint with his re-
volver, but missed him, and before he
could shoot second time, Lapoint shot
him in the head and neck.
A young man picked up the consta'
ble's revolver, and going to the upstairs
window OF store opposite the maniac,
fired at and struck him. Wheeling
quicker than lightning, Lapoint fired
! into the window, smashing it into atoms.
He then dropped and was quickly
captured and placed in the cell of po-
lice station, which WAS not over fifty
Yards away. Chief Rose is terribly
wounded, and it is doubtful whether he
will live. Constable Linsley is badly
wounded, but will recover. The In.
dian, Dickson, will also recover.
Other persons wounded, but not
seriously, are Sam Kilborn, Robert
Boyd, Fred Stage, George Stagg, Rob-
ert Mccormack and Thomas Debereau.
Lapoint, who is about forty years
old, lives about eight miles from Rock
Vile. He is an expert shot and spends
most of his time hunting. He has
shown signs of insanity at times. Late
ly ne has been drinking heavily.

THE BURIAL OF HOLMES.
Tomb of the Murderer IA Solid Wall
of Rock.

PHILADELPHIA, PA. May S.-The
body OF II. II. Holmes, which was en-
bedded in cement in a pine box yester-
day, after the hanging, and then placed
in a vault in Holy Cross Cemetery was
this afternoon buried in a grave ten
feet I'm depth Rev. Father McPake, VINO
was one of Holiness spiritual ADVISERS
and who remained with him TO the last
conducted the services OF the hoiiah
Catholic Church at the grave
The grave, or rather the double grave
is located I'm the western part OF the
cemetery. where single graves are sofa III
consecrated ground The box with the
bodv embedded in cement weighed over
a ton. and was too wide TO be lowered
into an ordinary grave. Hence to-day
Undertaken ORourke selected enough
snace i'm the single-grave portion of the
cemetery to receive the unusually large
coffin. The only vehicle strong enough
10 hold the box was a wagon used IN
hauling monuments, and this conveyed
the body of Holmes from the vault TO
its last resting-place.
When the funeral services were over ana
Father McPake and the undertaken ana
his assistants had departed. the grave
diggers. aided by a mason, and under
the supervision of Lawyer Rotan, plled
a layer of cement two feet thick upoh
the box. The material was packed in and
about the sides and ends OF the mover
.sarcophagus, and when the job was mn
ished the remains of Holmes were pro-
nounced safe from grave-robbers for all
time. His tomb will be a solid wall OF
rock Mr. Rotan remained to see that
the last wishes of his client were car
ripd out.
