GEN. FULLERTON's BODY
Foundztloating in the YOughiOgheny River
Sasen Miles Below the Bridge.

FoundsFloating in the Youghiogheny River
Sasen Miles Below the Bridge.
The pody of Gen. Joseph Scott Full
lertonao st. Louis, Mo, who was
killed ~ the wreck of train No. 2 at
the Yhughiogheny river bridge, a
mile al q a-half west of Oakland, on
Saturday, March goth, was recovered
last FE oAy, twenty days after the
fatal a&eSdent, at a point about seven
miles dawn the river from the scene
of the Yreck.
The Sbody was observed by Mr..
Joseph Kisner floating in the middle
of the Stream, who allowed it to pass,
thinkingit was some rubbish being
washed down by the high waters. On
second thought, however, he conclu-
ded to iayestigate, and jumping on a
raft moorad to the bank, he put out
intc.thy3river and after considerable
haff Work succeeded in towing the
body to shore where he secured it and
sent a messenger to town to inform
the authorities. As soon as possible
Mr.. c. F. Schroeder, the B. & 0.
agent, accompanied by Undertaken
Bolden and one or two others, were
driven down to the river where the
remains were identified as those of
Gen. Fullerton from a photograph
Mr.. Schroeder had in his possession.
The body of the unfortunate gen
tleman was entirely nude except that
he had on an undershirt and short
sleeping jacket. 1t was in an almost
perfect state of preservation owing,
no doubt, to the GOODNESS of the water.
An examination of the remains re-
vealed the fact that number of
terrible bruises had been made on the
been broken. On the middle finger
Of the left hand was found two sold
rings, one set with a ruby, an emerald
and a diamond, and the other a plain
gold band, engraved, m. W. H. to J.
S. F., Feb. "a, 1879. Mizpah," These
were removed and given in charge Of
Mr.. Schroeder.
After caring for the body as well as
could be under the circumstances it
was placed in an ice box and brought
to town and taken to the undertaking
rooms Of Messrs Shartzer & Bolden,
where il was embalmad and DrpDarpd
for burial Friday night Saturday
morning the remains were placed in
plain though costly black case and
shipped to Chillicothe, Ohio, the same
evening on train No. /, where the

THE TALK OF THE TOWN.

Every year in springtime,
just as sure as fate,
Quite lot of trouble
Women folks create.
All are disregarding
Wishes of the men,
For each one is bent on
Cleaning house again.
Hubby says it's useless,
Makes an awful kick
Freaks of foolish women
Fairly make him sick
Vain are all his protests,
Might as well keep mum;
Goes to work Disguised,
Feeling mighty glum.
Taking up the carpets,
Gouging out the tacks:
Now and then a recess,
Easing aching backs.
Task at last accomplished,
Rooms are badly mussed;
Woman's in her glory
Kicking up a dust.
Home come hubby hungry,
Growing like a bear
Till the meal is ready,
Then a milder air.
When the supper's over
Gladly he'd retreat,
But his wife gives orders
Carpets he must beat.
Fiercely he belabors
Carpets he thought clean,
Dust in clouds arising
Makes a dreary scene.
Thuds get weak and weaker,
Man feels almost dead,
Trembling with exhaustion
Totters off to bed.
Through a weak of worry,
That's the way it goes;
Every day adds something
To the string of woes.
Falling over buckets,
Slipping on the soap,
Treading on the points
Tacks that upward slope.
Busting, sweeping, scrubbing,
Making queerest finds,
Putting down the carpets,
Hanging up the blinds.
But at last it's finished,
Men no more complain;
Till next cleaning season
Harmony will reign.

BATTERED him TO DEATH OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ARRIVAL OF THE BRIG WITH COL
ONISTS ON BOARD.
The Percy Edwards Arrives Off Port,
Eighteen Days from San Francisco
All Well on Board-Purchase

The American brig Percy Edwards,
with 100 venturesome young men on
board, hove to off port about o'clock
this morning, and Capt. Peterson came
ashore in his gig to report all well on
board and make few purchases.
Eighteen days ago the little vessel left
San Francisco for cruise to the Fiji
islands for the purpose of establishing
a cooperative colony, probably on Le-
ouka, very fertile, but sparsely pop
ulated island of the group. The ven
ture has excited a great deal of com

al the present time, and the officers are
powerless to carry on their investiga-
lions properly without one.
Marshal Brown is of the opinion
that there is no occasion for alarm
over the Spreckelsville affair. From
information now at hand it seems to
have been just such an affair as might
have happened in any similar settle
ment when the people were incensed
over an attempt of one of their num-
ber to rob them. The japanese have
not in any way detied the officers.
When they do, the Marshal says, It
will be time enough to consider the
matter in very serious light. In case
such an emergency does arise, the Gov
ernment forces, police and military,
are ready for duty on the briefest
notice.
The murder at Maui has been the
topic of general conversation on the
streets ever since the news arrived, on
the Claudine, and has aroused great
deal of feeling against the japanese.
The rather exaggerated reports that
were received at first are largely re-
sponsible for that. Some of the gos-
sips on the street corners yesterday
were industriously spreading the re-
port that six white men had been
killed in a pitched battle between a
Japanese mob and the authorities
Even as late as this morning it was
told on the water front that three
white men had been killed. The feel,
ing has calmed down somewhat-now
that the truth of the affair is known

Doyle will go to Maui tomorrow morn

to be on the ground while the investi-

there is no official interpreter at Maui

ment in California, from which State
nearly all of the colonists came.
The run down from San Francisco
was very pleasant ont, fine weather
prevailing all the time. The majority
of the men aboard had never been to
sea before, and sea sickness was al
most epidemic for the first fortnight.
In fact so many men were ill, that had
the question of turning back been put
to a popular vote, there would have
been an overwhelming majority in
favor of it, but all were to i'll to agitate
the matter and the brig sailed on.
Spirits and hopes revived when the
nausea bad passed away, and today
there is not a man on board who
would turn back if he could.
Capt. Peterson had an interview
with Port Surveyor Stratemeyer as
soon as he came ashore and afterward
with Surveyor General Castle. The
only fee required of him was for the
medical inspection, and he was given
permission to take off what stores he
might need In an interview with a
reporter for The Star, Capt. Peterson
said that it would be useless waste
of time and money to stop here for any
length of time.

Seas, nor overthrow any government
What we propose to do is to colonize
an island of the Fiji group, and to es-
tablish such trading relations with the
islanders as will enable us to realize
handsomely on the money we have in
vested.
"We have, fortunately, secured fine

no fear that they will have. There art
