Actually Boiled Alive.

SHAMoKIY, Pa, Feb. 23.-The most iiend
ish attempt at robbery ever brought to public
notice here was perpetrated yesterday morn
ing at Luke Fiddler colliery. Paul 0sman
was actually boiled in steam by three masked
men, and the doctors say he cannot possibly
recover. The victim resides at Hickory Ridge
and when on his way home from Shamokin
he was stopped near Luke Fiddler by the
masked robbers. The highwaymen seized
and ran him to pipe close by, which emitted
steam and boiling water from the mine. They
told him that unless he gave up 500 which he
had when he left Shamokin they would boil
him over the pipe. Osnan begged his tor
menters to release him, maintaining that he
had no money. The robbers then held him
over the escaping steam to torture him into
submission. Osman was not over the steam a
minute before large strips of skin came off his
back. He Shrieked in agony for help but his
cries were unheard He tainted from pain,
and the wretches thinking him dying laid him
..rnn a nile of blanks and fed Miners dis
covered the unfortunate man senseless an
hour later. He was removed to his home and
the physicians found that one side had been
burned TO the bone from the knee to the neck.
He cannot possibly recover. The police are
looking for the robbers

Washington Correspondence Baltimore Sun.
of all the host of aspirants for the Republl-
can nomination for the presidency not one IS
entitled to the designation of statesman IN
any proper sense Of the term They are, all
Of them, nothing more and nothing less than
mere scheming and selfish politicians, with
no thought beyond that of personal and pri-
yate gain and advancement. The open, ayowed
candidates are all actively at work in setting
up the pins for the choice of delegates to the
convention and there will be no hesitation in
taking any step to outwit each other. The
underhand methods, the plotting, the circum
venting, the bribery, the bargaining, the CIV
ing of false promises will go on to the moment
of the nomination. 1t would probably not be
too extreme an estimate to figure up TO fifty
the list of men who fancy in some contingency
or other the lightning may strike them. The
names of half dozen men only are proml-
nently mentioned in this connection. Yet
the chances are much more than even that
the candidate will not be taken from that
group.
A oUAY-PLArr COMBINATION.
Unless there is an extraordinary change in
the situation ia the next three months, the
balance of power in tine convention will be in
the control Of men who may change their
minds as to the candidate at the last minute.
OF course, Mr.. Plat, nominally as he may be
for Governor Morton, will cast the vote of the
New York delegation TO suit himself when the
time comes, and very few people believe he
has any idea of giving New York's Governor
any serious OF honest support. Quays can
didacy is nothing bat a blind. He must laugh
to himself at the joke he is playing upon the
creduIous He has taken this course for no
other purpose than to hold now strongly in
hand the Pennsylvania delegation. With the
delegation instructed for him, it will be in his
power to hold it solidly and to throw it solidly
in any direction. Mr. Quay knows perfectly
well that no man with his furnished record
could make Il successful run for the pres-
dency. Gallons as he is, he would not dare
to have his past career exposed to the gaze of
the country, as i would be under such cir
cumstances Many of his own particular
friends admit that his prospect of carrying
Pennsylvania even would be very dark. But
with the Pennsylvania delegation held tight
in his hand, and Plat having the same hold
on the New York delegation, the two would
be the most potent factions in the convention.

Legislative Notes.

Senator Herring has introduced bill in the
Senate to regulate the fees and salary of the
sheriff of Carroll county. The bill, it is I'M
derstood, reduces the salary somewhat, and
reduces the fees for taking prisoners TO state
penal institutions. 1t is not to go into effect
until after the term Of the present sheriff ex-
pires.
The Senate bill abolishing the office of State
Fire Marshal was on Wednesday ordered
engressed for third reading by "A vote Of 20
to l. II the office is not abolished Governor
Lowndes has indicated a purpose to appoint
Mr.. Z. J. Lawyer, of Westminster, Fire
Marshal.
The House on Wednesday night passed the
House bill reducing the district road commits
sioners in Carroll from three to one. A great
mass of local bills have been introduced in
both houses, but particularly in the House OF
Delegates, and the number is being added to
daily. Many will get no further than COM
mitlee rooms.
The Senate and House have each been
working on assessment bills, the Senate on
the Herring bill and the House on the Bankert
measure. Up to date the prospect for new
assessment is not bright The Senate has
been considering a registration and election
bill this week also.

Chairman Carter on the war-Path.

Senator Carter, of Montana, IS Chairman of
the Republican National Committee, and he
thinks he is loyal as Republican to the prin.
ciples of the party as any gold-bug Republi-
can ''magpie" in the East. He is red-hotfor
free coinage of silver, and he voted against
taking up the tariff bill, believing the finan-
cial question is the only one of moment. The
gold bug press and ''magpies' have asked
him to resign and criticised him more or less
severely. On Wednesday he made his pro-
missed speech in reply, and he laid on the lash
pretty heavily. He criticised the tariff bill as
un. Republican, and as unnecessary. The
President, he said, did not ask for relief in
the way of more revenue, and the Republic
cans had made themselves ridiculous in en-
deayoring to force tariff bill upon him. The
veto of a Republican tariff bill, continued Mr..
Carter, would raise an issue, but veto of the
pending bill ''would raise laugh at the ex-
pense of the Republican party.
The Free Silver Republican Senator from
Montana was out in great shape. He had no
gloves on, and he dressed off everybody and
everything that was not exactly up to his idea
of full-blood Republicanism. He fairly took
the clothes off the President, but he also
scored the gold-bug Republican mag -pies,
as he called them, that followed the President
in every move he made.
1t begins to look as though the Republicans
at Washington will hang themselves just as
the Republican party of Maryland is prepar
ing the moose for its neck.

Curious Storms in Australia.

VANCOUVER, b. c., February 27--The
Canadian Australian steamer Miowera, from
Sydney, brings news of great suffering and
loss of property in Australia by the extraor-
binary climatic conditions. There is UMPIRE
cedented heat on land and an excessively high
death rate from sunstroke, eighty corpses be-
ing buried in Sydney in one day. Terrific
storms prevailed along the coast. Crops in a
greatmany localities have been ruined. Herds
of stock are starving and dying for want of
water, and there is distressing array of ma
rine casualties reported.
The town of Murrurundi was almost en-
tirely destroyed by an electric windstorm. 1t
was night when the storm struck there. The
whole country for thirty minutes was aAame

light. On the Queensland coast the storm
was of awful violence. At midnight on Jan

people on board The crew abandoned the
vessel with some eighty-fve passengers, land
ing them safely at the lighthouse. The yes

Origin of the Electoral College.

(Ex-President Harrison in Ladies' Home Journal
THE origin of the Electoral College, he
says, has been the subject of much specula-
ton. The only American precedent is found
in the first constitution of Maryland, where
provision was made for the choice of State
Senators by electors chosen by popular vote
in specified districts. In the Massachusetts
convention Mr.. Bowdoin said This method
of choosing the President was probably taken
from the manner of choosing Senators under
the constitution of Maryland An attempt
has been made to find the suggestion of the
electoral college, as we have come to call it,
by some in the method then in use of choos-
ing the German Emperor, and by others in
the method of choosing Pope, by the col
lege of Cardinals. Sir Henry Maine thinks
that the members of the Convention were to
a considerable extent guided by the example
of the Holy Roman Empire And as Mary
land, where the electoral college was first
used, was Catholic colony, the suggestion
seems plausible. But there was this differ
ence: Our electors are not permanent
body, but fresh men chosen every four years.

A wonderful kentucky Negro.

LEXINGTON, KY, Feb. 16.-Paul Bryan, a
negro boy, fourteen years old, is a wonderful
phenomenon, says Middlesboro special. He
is entirely unlettered, and neither his father
nor mother can read. None of them ever
heard of Milton, Shakespeare or Young, and
yet this boy can repeat from each of these
authors. He can repeat nearly all of Ham
let's soliloquy, knows those passages from
Miltons Paradise Lost which so sublimely
describe Satan, and nearly all of Young's
Might Thoughts In addition to this he
can quote passage after passage of Scripture.
The medical men account for it on the ground
that when the lad was a small boy his mother
cooked for the family of noted clergyman in
Alabama and the boy was allowed to play
about the study of the preacher, with the white
children. In a few days he will be taken to
Knoxville, to be examined by experts, and he
may be placed on exhibition.

In a Hole.

Governor Lowndes held back his appoint
ments until the very last moment allowed by
the constitution, in order that the patronage
could be used as a rod over the Legislature to
force the election of Wellington. the election
of Police Commissioners and State Treasurer,
and for further ends of the Allegany Ring.
Now he finds that some of his nominees are
VIGOROUSLY unfit. The Governor does not
want to withdraw them, for he cannot name
others. II the Senate rejects them, the Gov
ernor could send in other names, but the
Senate does not feel inclined TO help the
Governor out of the hole in which he has
placed himself.

May Be Past Praying For.

Richmond, Va, Feb 21.-It is the custom
Of the clerk of the House of Delegates to invite
minister to open the proceedings of the body
with prayer. Rev. G. J. 0chischlaeger, an
English Lutheran preacher, was invited to
serve the House as Chaplain next week and
he responded ~ do not believe in opening
a premiscuous political body with PRAYER.
The promiscuous character of the body makes
il an abuse of prayer, and the political char
acter of the body makes it an unnatural union
of Church and State. l, as Christian, and
any member of the body as Christian, can
privately. pray for the sessions, but the State
which that body represents has nothing to do
with prayer.
The minister's letter was read in open ses-
sion and was the basis for many jokes on the
hopeless and unregenerate condition of the
Assembly.
