WHERE DO YOU LIVE ?

How many Edwards county boys
and girls can take their bearings as
sailors do? Any one who has studied
longitude aud time and the advanced
geography should be able to do it,
not by the use of instruments as sail
ors do. but by an arithmelical calcu-
lation.
Desiring to know how we'll pupils
can apply text book knowledge to
practice, the county superintendent
offers an instructive book, ssFairy
Land of Science, to the boy or girl
below the high school who will give
the most accurate location of his or
her home by latitude and longitude.
This is the form to use in sending the

ACCUSED OF BLEVINS' MURDER.
A Contracting PAINTER Arrested on
Confession Of a Man In
Kansas.

New Castle, Pa, Oct. 16.-Charged
with the murder Of City Treasurer
John Blevins in his Office on the night
of Jan. Z, 1890, Frank ]. Field, con-
tracing painter, of Wicklow street,
East End Pittsburg, Is prisoner at
City Hall. He was arrested at his
home at $50 yesterday morning by
Officer James McKissick, Of New Cas-
tie, who brought him here on Penn
sylyania train, arriving at 1880, city
time. Field was arrested on a war
rant sworn oby Charles McClaren,
of this city.
Some months ago H. R. Peek, OF
Gorham, Kan, wrote to the mayor
of New Castle that he had informa-
ton that would clear up the mystery.
Little attention was paid to the let
ter at the time. McClaren, however,
had formerly lived in Kansas and
knew Peek. After some correspnd-
ence he recently went there. He as
serts that he has evidence that will
convict the prisoner.
According to the story, the crime
was committed by Frank ]. Field and
a brother, Judson Field, who died
about a year ago, after writing a
confession of the crime and signing
it in the presence of witnesses. This
confession is said to be highly sensa-
tional, inasmuch as it reveals a con-
spiracy and the completely OF others
than the field brothers. More ar
rests, it is likely, will be made. 1t
is said that the confession Is accom-
panied by evidence in the shape OF
papers stolen from the city treasurer.
Field when arrested exhibited little
agitation and accompanied the officer
without resistance. He protested his
innocence of the crime. Upon his
arrival here he was taken to the Of
fee of Alderman Gilliland, where the
information was read to him,
The information alleges murder as
the result of a conspiracy between
Judson and Frank ]. Field and per-
sons whose names are to the COM
plainant unknown. 81 am not guilty,
said Field, who was trembling VIC

New Castle before. l passed through
the city once since then with the
Tenth regiment. Who do you say
was murdered?" When the name OF
John Blevins YVES repeated he said
that he had never heard it.
Field said that he was contract
ing painter and had always been a
law-abiding man. From the office OF
the alderman hewa IS taken. to city
hall and placed in a cell, where he
asked for a newspaper. Later he
was removed. to the county Jill

HIGHER LEVEL or PRICES.
Progress Made Toward II, Yesterday
In the Stock Mars;et-sOme
Z, : of the Features

New York, Oct. 16.-Further prog
tess was made toward 9. higher level
Of prices in the stock market yester-
day, although there were no actual
developments in either the monetary
or the coal strike situation to indi-
cate any material change in condi-
tons. Nevertheless the feeling was
more prevalent that the coal strike
would reach an early amicable end
and that measures are to be taken
by Secretary Shaw that will shortly
relieve the present stringency Of the
money market. Whether there was
any foundation or not in the rumor,
the money market reflected greater
ease than in some time, call loans
opening ut 9 per cent, the highest,
and then shading gradually to 8 per
cent. Considerable attention was
given to the report that there would
be certain notifications in the terms
proposed by the coal operators for
a settlement of the strike which
would insure less opposition from the
miners in the points contested. Moth
ing definite developed regarding this
report, though it was colored to som
extent by the heavy buying Of Read
ing, which showed considerable
strength throughout the day. The
dealings were smaller than usual in
other stocks Of this class and there
was a disposition in general to await
active developments before pursuing
active operations in this quarter. Re-
cent speculative leaders among the
grangers, Pacifics and Southwestern
stocks were bought freely and the
entire market showed decided
strength at one time or another. st.
Paul, Louisville and Illinois Central
were conspicuous in the days deal
dealings and made exceptional ad-
vances of 2 points. Prices elsewhere
averaged a point pretty generally,
with quite an active demand in a
number of specialties. The Gould
stocks as a group received the most
consistent support, the heavy buying
Of Missouri Pacific having sustain
ing effect on the lawer priced stocks.
In the late session stock trading was
virtually stagnant at times, es-
pecially when the market was under
pressure from realizing sales. There
were occasional bursts of activity,
and these as a rule were marked by
advancing prices. Profit taking sales
outweighed the buying orders in the
final hour and there were a number
of important reactions which wee
not checked by final upturn in St.
Paul to the BEST. The closing was
dull and easy.

A BIG FIRE.
The State Orphans Home Destroyed.
viii Be Rebuilt.

| WIZ DS NCDuHt.
Friday. the 4th Of July proved dis
asterous one fer the State of Nevada,
as the Orphans Home. or the best
part of the building went up in smoke.
The fire started as the train taxi
ing the fire boys to Reno, was ready
to pull out
Most OF the flremen left the train
and hurried to the scene, where II was
found that the main building was on
fire and little chance to fight it. The
fire had started between the roof ant
garrett and the heighth OF the building,
together with the fact that no ladder
was on hand, prevented the boys from
reaching the flames.
When hole was finally cut In the
roof the flames broke out and the
Home was doomed.
T The water supply at the commence
ment OF the fire was Inadequate. as all
the water that could be secured was
what came through the small hose at
the Home from the State reservoir. :,
The firemen we're compelled to
stretch over thousand feet of hose
which naturally took great portion
Of the pressure from them.
The boys did some good work to
keep the fire confined to the main
building and deserve the many COM
plimentary remarks that have been
made regarding the outcome Of
the fire.
When the fire started Superintend-
ent Josephs sent in the alarm and then
set all hands TO saving what material
they could.
Most of the furniture and bedding
was taken from the building. while a
great portion Of 1t was damaged. yet 1t
made 1t possible for the Home to furn-
ish the children with accommodations.
The fire kept the boys busy from the
time 1t started. about 9 o'clock. until
in the afternoon bsfor- 1t was consid-
cred safe to let the fire rest.
The main building was by this time
total wreck and there Is only one way
to repair it and that is by new one.
