the town. 10000 are Hebrews, and, with
the exception of 400 Spanish and 300
Askenasi families which follow some
trade, they all live on aims from their
European cO-religionlsts. They include
1900 Austrians and Hungarans, all very
poor; but the most wretched are the
Morocco Hebrews, who must live on
about fifty cents a month-how, can be
imagined. A correspondent of Lon
don newspaper who has questioned a
number of prominent Hebrew bankers,
merchants, and professional men in
Vienna, says that they almost unani-
mously asked why they should give the
anti-Semites the pleasure of even talk
ing of leaving the country in which
they, their fathers, and forefathers We're
born, and in which they have the same
right to follow their vocations as those

Palestine? They were by education,

class, and they not only felt quite COM

THE GREAT CONTESTIN NEW YORK.
The political situation in Greater
New York increases in interest, if not
in principle, daily. Seth Low seems to
be sticking with much adherence.
Platt of course will stick, and if it is
Platt's will General Benjamin f. Ira
cy will stick as his candidate for may
or. 1t now looks as If Henry George
might be the candidate of the free sill
yer Democrats. The talk is that in the
Tammany platform absolutely nothing
Will be said about free silver. The
candidate for mayor will be gold
man. An attempt will doubtless be
made to convince the Democratic
masses who are in love with Organism
that the nominee is not foe to their
ideas, but there will be nothing in the
Tammany convention or in its results
to satisfy the free silver men. and the
committee will so report to the central
body. The free silver Democratic con-
vention will be reconvened, the COM
mittee will recommend another ticket,
and Henry George. or some one who
represents his views, will be nominated.
The hackers of Low are much en-
couraged by the situation. They figure
that with Low in the canvass with 49,
900 enrolled supporters, mostly from
New York. and the hundred thousand
additional votes which conservative
calculators give him; with Henry
George combining his labor vote of 6S,-
900 ten years ago with the silver Demo
cratic support which last fall cast 1884,
377 to 5,541 for the gold ticket; with
General Tracy or another in the field
with the solid support of the Platt ma
chine, and with a Tammany Hall ticket
made UP by Croker Sheehan- Scannell
shorn on one side by Low of decent
Democratic votes and on the other by
Henry George of silver support, Low

Time and the counting of the votes
will tell The contest is a great and
most important one.

THE LUETG ERT TRIAL.

Few murder trials in this country
have excited such general interest as
the Luetgert trial in Chicago. Luet-
CERT, sausage maker, is accused of
killing his wife and destroying her
body in one of the watts Of his factory
by means Of caustic potash. The prose-
cution has put in it's evidence, which is
circumstantiaL 1t has been shown that
there was an unpleasant state of affairs
CERT went into the factory the night she
is said to have been killed, and it is
asserted that some pieces of bone, a
pair Of corset steels, a wisp Of long
hair and finger ring that were found
in the vat that had held the potash are
the remains of Mrs. Luetgert. For the
defense it is claimed that Mrs. Luetgert
still alive. In proof Of this three wit
nesses, one a hotel barfeeper, another
policeman and the third hotel clerk,
all from Kenosha, Wisconsin, have tes-
titled that they saw Mrs. Luetgert at
the Hotel Maple, Kenosha, alive and
well, on the evening of May 9. This is
two days after the alleged destruction
of her body. If this testimony is cor
rect, of course Luetgert is not a muir
derer. There does not seem to be any
who say they saw Mrs. Luetgert are
not honest, but of course they can be
mistaken. How easy it is to be mis-
taken in such a matter is pointed out
by the Boston Herald, which recalls
the fact that in the celebrated trial of
DR.. Webster for the murder of DR..
Parkman in Boston several witnesses
went on the stand and testified to hav-
ing seen DR.. Parkman in the streets Of
Boston after the time of his alleged
death at the hands of DR.. Webster. Dr..
Parkman was man of marked and
peculiar individuality, which it would
seem to have been very difficult to mis-
take. Yet these witnesses We're mis-
| taken. They did not see him, but they
| saw somebody else who resembled him
| in appearance. 1t was afterwards
demonstrated that DIR. Parkman was
! dead several days previous to the time
when these witnesses swore that they
saw him alive and walking
| If Mrs Luetgert is alive it is to be
hoped she will appear before the trial
| is over. Her husband is in tight spot
and though he didn't appear to think
| he needed her when she was with him
| he needs her now.

It was grand sight enough to- see

think that the elegant skating is all
gone. and it certainly is for some time,
as the whole business went out shortly
after the. channel was cut through the
middle.
Mr.. George N. Lawrence. treasurer
of the Haynes & Dewitt Co., visited
a number of the fields down the river.
At Randolph there is a clear sweep
made-where the ice was about five
inches in thickness before rain came.
At South Gardiner it was IL or IL

At the IceborO fields there is thick

before there was about inches of it.
With "a hours more of the thaw, the
whole business would have gone on

The fact of the ice holding out is
welcome news to the many men about

MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Augustus Singers Are Organizing Hopes Of
Avery Large Delegation.

| There is movement on foot, in
charge of the musical people of Au-
gusta, to form large club to represent
the city at the grand musical festival
under the direction of Mr.. Chapman.
the widely known director of the
Apollo club of New York.
1t is expected that at least so singers
will join the, organization and will,
perhaps, unite with those from Gar
diner and Hallowell, and hold rehearsals
| together. Mr.. Chapmans time. of
| course, is limited. and, when he passes
| this way, it is thought by far the best
plan for all the three cities to join
forces and hold rehearsals together
The outlook is very encouraging to
put it softly. The grand concert at
Lewiston will comprise 1000 voices. and
will be accompanied by Anton Seidl's
orchestra. Madame Nordica of whom
Maine is proud enough of to claim as a
daughter. will sing, and other famous
soloists will appear
The music will be selected from the
best oratories and operas, and, under
Mr. y hapman's supervision. will be ar
ranged to make up the greatest event
of its kind ever known in the State.
The next rehearsal VIII be given at
Gardiner. next Monday, when the
voices which have not already been
tried, will be heard, and further ar
rangements will be made.
Augusta was very successful, some
eight or ten years ago. in bringing to-
gether large chorus of voices. under
the name of the Orpheus society. and
there is thought to be many more savail-s
able singers today than there were
then, which will promise wen for the
