toholdtho Convention in the back room

b?ou culled to order before there was a loud

saw he had his pistol in his hand. He fol

my hkiids from, side to side, in the hope of
receiving the shot in my hands when he
fired rather than in my body. Ai an iter

I he remains wero taken to Wilkes Harro
Monday for interment.
Wlntbrop W. Ketchum was a native ol
Wilkes Barre, whero he was born Juno 29,
1S20. He was educated at Dana Academy
and at tho Wyoming Seminary, and taught
school from 1813 to 1817, when ho began tho
study of law, and was admitted to tho bar in
Wilkes Barre three years later. Except
when filling public offico ho continued tho
practiccof his profession., Ho was a Whig
until tho orgnnizatibn of tho Republican
party, when ho becatno an active member of
that, and held several honorable positions. In
185o ho was olected l'rothonotary of Luzerne
county, serving throe years, and then occu
pying a seat in the lower bouso of tho Legis
lature for a year. In 1859 ho was chosen to
tho State Senato for threo years. President
Lincoln, in February, 18G1, appointed Mr.
Ketchum solicitor for tho United States Court

to the1 Chicago Convention as a district
delegate, assisting in tho nomination of

dent Grant in 1876, and filled tho position
with decided credit.
llow Miss Sickles Is Said to Have Learn
ed Her Mather's Story.
A writer, in speaking of the published ru
mors that General Sickles' daughter had
eloped from Paris says :
The writer of this while in Baltimore sev
eral years ago was told a story about Miss
Sickles by a school friend of hers which is
full of pathetic interest just now. A little
party had been given at the house of a lady
in Baltimore where the writer met Miss
pickles and was struck by her quick witted
repartees and her readiness to chat about
current topics of interest. Meeting a
schoolmate of hers the next day the writer
alluded to this. "Oh, yes," was tho reply
she was gay enough then, poor child, but
she is almost broken hearted, notwithstand
ing her vivacity," A few questions brought
out the whole .sad scory. General Sickles
first wife, the, mother of his daughter, as
wiil.be remembered, was connected with the
famous scandal with Philip Barton Key,
the District Attorney at Washington D. C,
Sickles, shot Key in 1859, and killed him.
and was, tried for bis murder and was acquit
ted. His wife died shortly after, and before
her daughter was old enough to understand
tho, disgrace, of it all. .General Sickles, with
jealouiwatchfulness, kepi the facts connec
ted with her mother's.share in the tragedy
a secret ,lrom his daughter, and she knew
nothing pboutjt,, until she "was nearly nine
teen. She was a sensitive, loving girl, aud
f Worshiped the memory of her mother,whom
he had been taught to' love, and she 'fre
quently spoke of her to her friends. Miss
Sickles Vent to school in Baltimore, and
one day while reciting in class'' Bhe had a
slight quarrel with a girl front Washington.
After school a number of girls were seated
together and among them Miss Sickles and
the girl With whom she had the quare). Mies
Sickles apologized for what she had said,
bat the other girl refused to be comforted,
'and finally grew .very angry and began to
tauntMiss 'Sickles' about 'the terrible story
n'f.her mollicr'a wrong doing. "Miss Sickles
demanded an explanation, which was given
'add the'' poor young lady almost lost her
'leaiori in' the attack of Illness 'which follow'
ed. She.left the school when she recover
ed her health and soon afterward joined her
father. It Was said she' acted 'very wildly
foward h'ini rfor 'keeping thV'story hidden
from 'her, aud1' Teproachedu-hlm' bitterly
The effect of the revelation' 'was that Mies
Sickles manner and actions-.changed from
what she had been before, and she began
to worry hen father by her apparent heart
lessneas and fondness far the excitement

The Court of Wayno county sentenced a
number of saloon keepers to pay fines of
$200 for violations of the liquor law, and
some of them went to jail because they
could not pay it. The Law Library Asso

They compromised with the offenders by
taking from them foO apiece, and gave re

This was in effect a pardon to the extent of
$150, and was not creditable to the assocla
tion, nor conduclve'to' the proper admlnli

thinks, differ in some important points from
our own. They do not, ha says, make for
tunes there in order to found landed fam
ilies, and the consequence is that possessors
of large, fortunes more often devote them
to the public welfare. The mass of the
people are sober, and therefore able to work
more continuously, if not harder, than our
people.
Mr. Potter speaks enthusiastically ofthe
progress and prospects of the United States

Ai the OolleeurS Variety1 Theatre, id
Kansas City, recently, Herr Guise, a mag.
iclan, strode along the stage and made his
low salaam to the dancing girls. Around
the neck, In tbepockets and under the fantus'
tic cap of the magician were seven snakes a
tree snake, a hoop snak, a boa and various
kinds of rattle snakes. Tho boys in the
gallery shouted, whistled and screamed.
Herr Guise did several tricks with his peti.
The dancing girls were persuaded to let the
constrictor coil about their ankles.binding as
with a chain a dozen pairs together. It
was a wonderful performance the magician
showing trick after trick, with clever sallies
now and then. At one point a boy in the
audience called out that the snakes were
without fangs, and therefore were harmless,
"Come up to do stage, mine poy," said
the. performer. The boy leaped over
the footlights and stood at the performers
side. Herr Guise threw a confident "now
see"' at the lad aud taking a toothpick press
d open the mouth of one of the reptiles
that the fangs might be shown. Tho rep'
tile's mouth opened, but in an instant its
fangs were buried to the roots ill the ma'
gleian's hand, Herr Guise at once ran from
the stage and drank seven large tumblers of
whiskey. Before stupor fell upon him he
sucked the venom from the wounds, Ncv

Small llmlncm for n Judge.
Jucgo Orvls of Ilellfouto is acknowledged
as an accomplished lawyer aud n man nf
learning. In cues' similar to that which
follows, If this most wise Judgo continues
the course which ho has marked out, he will
gain a reputation for tho exercise of arbi
trary power, not to say meanness, that will
at least or if it does tot it should de
prive him of nil prospects of proferment
hereafter, besides disgusting thinking peo
ple wllli the Judgo as n Judge. Old Jef
freys was 'probably never moro conteuipt
tlbly ntbltrary. Tho llcllfonto "Watchman"
savsi A strange nnd to many a startling
exhibition of power occurred in the Court
House In this nlace on- Wednesday last.
The regular quarter session term was belpg
proccded with, and two prisoners, mcro
boys, who had pleaded guilty to breaking
Into tho rail road ticket office nt I'll I lips-
burg and robbing of it some $14, wero railed
up fur sentenso. After a short lecture by
Judge Orvls ho pronounced the sentence
of three years nnd eleven mouths solitary
confinement in tho Western penitentiary
on each, and as they turned to go with tho
Sheritfone of them pelulnully remarked to
the Judge ; 'I wish I had n chance to sen
tence you for 3 years.' Ho was immediately
called back, and for this 'contempt, of court
had an additional three years added to his
sentence, making in all six years and
eleven months. Whether this exhibition
of power in the hands of the court will de
ter other criminals from speaking disres
pectfully to it or not only time will teach,
but such an exhibiton of feoliug on the part
of n Judge is not calculated to increase the
respect that the people, who nie not crimin
als, generally try to entertain for courts of
justice"
The Census.
'Iho question of the appointment of the
supervisors of the next census Is among the
prominent topics of discussion In Congres
Bional circles. Tho law provides for the
selection of 1150 of these officials, and
although tho salary attached to the position
is but $600 a year, and the duties are ar
duous, there are many considerations which
render tho oillce very desirable. The su
pervisors havo the power of selecting all
the enumerators in their respectve dlstrlc s,
and the opportunity (or the exerciso of Idea
patronage could hardly be surpassed. The
Democrats claim a voice in naming the su
pervisors , and as the senate must confirm
the nomlncqs, all who are not satisfactory
to tho Democrats will be rejected. General
Walker, the superintendent of census,
says that in the selection of supervisors he
will be guided solely by the qualifications
of the candidates, irrespective of their po
litical afiiliatlous.so that tho Democrats will
not be afforded the pretext of preventing
tho taking of the next census, by rejecting
the President's nominations for supervisors,
upon tho ground that they are Republican
partisans,
This is the opinion of William Almon
Wheeler, the fraudulent vice president, as
given to a reporter for the Washington
Pott, anent the approaching presidential con
test : "You sec, the- grand battle will be
fought In New Y'ork next year,, and the
democrats have the advantage of us in being
able to concentrate their forces. Starting
with their 133 Southern electoral vote solid,
they have but to gain the two states ot New
York and Indiana, in the north, and their
victory is complete. The Republicans, on
the other band, must struggle to keep intact
what they havo already gained. Besides
combating the democrats in the two states I
havo mentioned, they must make n sharp
campaign in Ohio, Now Jersey, Connecticut
and New Hampshire. Wo have, in fact, to
fight all over the country."
Judge Pearson filed his opinion on- Mon
day in tho bribery cases. It favors the de
fendant. Evidence will be beard by the
Court on the points raised, but as it will be
tho same ns in the Salter case there is not
much doubt but that the indictments will be
quashed.
