but we failed to discover them, and
when the jolting tossed us into the
air we had many misgivings about
whether we should alight where we
started from, or into the mud below.
We,.visited Bolivar Heights and other
points Of historic interest, and oh,
how lovely were the views from the
tops of the hills! We could trace the
windings of both the Shenandoah and
the Potomac and see where their
waters unite With the added beauty
of summer verdure I could hardly
imagine a more charming scene. It
is quite favorite summer resort.

If there has hitherto existed any
doub5 that Congressman Powers de-
sired a reelection this year his letter
to the Burlington Free Press, last
week certainly ought to dispel any
such Illusion. His statement is al
most as frank as that of Barre al
dermanic candidate, who, when he
received the caucus nomination
and was called upon for a speech
mounted the platform and said: I
tell you boys want it, and want it

TRIED TO SHOOT THE DOCTOR
THEN HUGH GIEHLEI WAS AR
RESTED FOR CARRYING CON
CEALED A DEADLY WEAPON.

About S.45 Saturday evening DR..
Lewis Slaughter, while in his office at
No. sos West Tenth street, heard a
great amount of screaming coming
from a wagon in front of his home, and
on investigating found that the wagon
contained three Germans-apparen
under an evil inhuence-and two chill
dren, one girl about 70 years OF age
and a boy about g.
1t appears that the man driving in
tended going over Washington street
bridge, but on passing the street was
in the act Of turning when the left
front wheel buckled. This frightened
the children and they attempted to
climb out of the back of the wagon.
The men were trying to stop them
from doing so, which caused their out
cries.
DR.. Slaughter hurried out and help
ed the children out OF the wagon and
sent them into his house as they were
very wet and suffering severely from
exposure.
He then told Hugo Giehlei, who wae
driving the wagon, that he could fix the
wagon and put his hand on the wheel
to do so, when Giehlei drew a revolver
and made an attempt to shoot his
benefactor, when friends quickly inter-
fered. The doctor fed and, going into
the house, telephoned for a policeman,
who soon arrived and took Giehlei to
the City Hall. The other two men and
the children were allowed to go home.
The policeman took Giehlei to the
Hall in his wagon and after locking
him up started for the Delaware
House stables with the wagon. AT
Fifth and Market streets the buckled
wheel broke down entirely and fell on
the hind feet Of the horse, which tried
its best to break away, but Policeman
Pierce, who was driving him, jump
ed out and caught his head.
At the Hall Giehlei was locked ur
on the charge Of carrying concealed a
deadly weapon.

The Canal Bill to he Discussed In the
Legislature This Week.

ALBANY, Jan 2L-There is every
promise of plenty of excitement in the
assembly during the coming week to
make up for the previous inaction OF
this body Of the legislature. The excite
ment will arise over the canal investi-
cation question, and during the battles
over it the Democrats will endeavor to
show that they have strength enough
10 make themselves felt throughout this
session. The bill drafted in the ways
and means committee last week and
introduced in the house by Assembly
man Nixon will not come up for action
until Wednesday, but the Democrats
will begin their preparations to fight II
tonight.
On Friday Assemblyman Donnelly,
leader of the Democrats in the house.
and Leader Cantor of the Democrats in
the senate held a conference on the ca
nal question, and IL was decided that
Mr.. Donnelly should make a fight for
the same changes in the bin that Sem
ator Cantor had previously urged be-
fore the senate finance committee.
These changes are that the canal in
vestigating committee shall consist of
five instead OF seven members, that
they shall be named in the bill and that
a report from this committee shall be
made to the present legislature. Imme-
diately after the session tonight eau
Gus Of the Democrats Of the assembly
will be held, and It is expected that
the caucus Will, with practically no OPP
position, adopt a bill that shall include
these changes.
With 2OS bills already introduced the
senate has enough business in hand &c
make this the third week of Legislation
active so far as the discussion in com
mittee is concerned of some Of the mosi
important measures that viii occupy
this winters session.

To Tnx Ground Rnnts-

ALBANY, Jan. 24.-The recent mes
sage of the state comptroller on the
subject of taxation is bearing fruit al
ready. one of its results is the prepara-
ton of a bill which is designed to dis
tribute more equally the burden Of tax
alton. Legislators who have seen n
rough draft of the measure are greatly
interested in its provisions. One of its
sections provides for levying taxes on
ground rents. This will yield a very
large revenue. especially in the city of
New York. Ground rents have hereto
fore escaped taxation, and it is argued
by the promoters Of this bill that such
rents should share in the burden Of tax
