from tho Presidency of tho New York

roads. James II. lluttcr was elected
President of tho Now Vorlc Central,
and John Nowell of the Michigan
Southern.
Ono of tho largest retail fur trades
that over took jil.ico in Maine was mado
at Kincs a fow days ago. The lot iiur
chased consisted of ono hundred and
twenty beaver skins, ten fishor or "black
cat," forty sable, four lynx, and a largo
number of smaller skins, all taken with
lu eight weeks.
Robert Cator and Anthony Maloney,
two well-known Schuylkill county
racers, ran a ono mllo race in Athletic
Park, Ashland, last Saturday after
noon for $'25 a side. Tho raeo was
run in a pouring rain, tho track being
heavy and muddy. The men wero
literally covered with mud at tho finish.
Malonoy won tho raco in fivo minutes
and eighteen seconds.
Governor Pattison ha intimated
that if tho Legislature does not pass
tho Apportionment bills, he will call an
extra session for that purposo. Ho
maintains, with considerable force, that
tho constitution ordains that an appor
tionment shall be made. It is tho duty
of tho Legislature to mako one, and ho
has taken an oath to see that tho laws
and tho constitution are faithfully exe
cuted. Every person leaving Russia for resi.
denco abroad is taxed $5 for his pass
port, a part of which sum goes to tho
pension fund of tho army. Quito a Btir
has been made among tho upper classes
of cities, like Moscow and St. Peters
burg, by a proposition to add to this a
further tax of $5 a month, or SCO a
year, during absence, tho payments to
be mado to tho nearest Russian consul.
Persous who fail to do this will bo do
taiued on tho frontier when thoy return,
and thero obliged to pay their arrears,
plus 10 per cent, compound interest. It
is estimated that, on an average, about
100,000 persons cross tho frontier on
business or pleasure every year.
The Apportionment Bills.
Tho now congressional apportion
ment bill, reported in tho legislature,
gives a delegation it is claimed of
nineteen sure Republican districts, sev
en suro Democratic districts, and two
doubtful. The XVIth district is con

Lycoming, Sullivan and Montour.
The senatorial apportionment bill puts

together, and calls the district the

Hayes and the Conductor.
A HAII.UOAD MAN WHO KNEW HIS I1UTV
AND 'WAS PIlOMOTEl) TON DOING IT.
From tho Boston Traveller.
Mr. Hayes was traveling, absorbed
in tho afTairs of tho State, whon he
was politely waited upon by tho con
ductor of the train and his ticket re
quested. Tho Presidont explained who
ho was, but the conductor said that his
orders wore imperative. IIo was oblig
ed to show something at tho end of his
ronto for every passenger who travel
ed with him, and it did not make aoy
difference who tho man was, ho must
cither havo a ticket, a pass or tho mon
oy. As President Hayes had neither a
ticket nor a pass, ho reluctantly pulled
out his pocketbood and counted enough
monoy to pay his passage.
Hayes was a very close man in mon
oy matters, and ho was highly indig
nant at tho treatment he had under
gone At tho end of tho road ho stalk
ed into tho office of tho President of
tho railroad and laid the facts before
him, with a request that tho conductor
bo cither discharged or reprimanded,
Tho railroad official calmly paid him
back tho monoy which ho had given
tho conductor for his fare, and Mr.
Hayes continued his journey in n much
happier frarao of mind. Tho conduc
tor when ho found out that tho Presi
dent of tho U. S., had mado a com
plaint against him, was very apprehen
sive, nud hi fear of dismissal was by
no means allayed when ho received a
summons from tho President of tho
road to come at onco to headquarters.
When ho arrived Mr. Hayes's story
was repeated to him, and ho was asked
if ho had anything to say, Mr, Con
ductor took tho rules out of his pocket
and read them, saying that he saw
nothing which exempted any passen
ger, oven so high a personage as tho
President of tho United States. Ho
was then told that it was not tho pur
pose of tho President of tho road to
dismiss him for a breach of rules, but
that ho was to bo promoted to a more
responsible position, with a much high
er salary, lor his faitbfulluess.
Suing Mason's Wife.
Mrs. Bcttv Mason has filed answer In
tin1 Equity Court at Washington to
tho suit of Benjamin F. Blgolow for
counsel fees !n defending her husband,
Sergeant Mason. Sho states that Big
elow volunteered to nssumo tho caso
and was not of her choico i that sho
never agreed to pay him for Ills servi
ces, but had of her own volition paid
him $370, for which sho holds his re
ceipt ; that ho connected himself with
her husband's dofonsc onlv for his own
glorification nnd for tho bonefit of his
reputation, nud finally sho douics tho
jurisdiction of tho court nnd holds that
his claim is not good in equity, but
must bo prosecuted ns any otlior civil
action.
Tho Eiohest,
To-day William II. Vanderbilt stands
tho richest man on tho American conti
nent. Ho has SI'jO.000,000 of money
In United States bonds. Ho owns rail-
TVoads, and laud, coal fields and iron
mountains, the best wiro and the fastest
horses. His homo is a palace and his
barn more sumptuoiiB in its arrango
ment than the homo of many a million
aire. His table is supplied by tho best
markets in tho world, prepared by tho
most skillful cooks, and yet there is a
suspicion, amounting to almost a posi
tive belief, that his lifo is not a happy
one. His riches aro a burden; they hang
about him liko mill-stones about tho
neck of tho man thrown into tho sea.
Vanderbilt is not a popular man; monoy
is his god and tho peoploaro but things
to wring monoy out of. What cares ho
for tho toiling masses 1 What cares ho
for anything or anybody except his
property and himself! IIo is nothing
moro than a greedy, grasping miecr,
damning everybody but himself, and
perchance in tho timet solitudes of his
grand palace, ho himsely may not bo
excluded. With tho wealth that ho oan
command, ho could make tho namo of
Peter Cooper sink into insignificance,
but as yet ho appears only as a grand
and miserablo failure by tho side of
Now York's honored philanthropist
Orit.
ATerrifioStorm.
A torriblo thunder storm visited
Chambersburg, Franklin county, on
last Friday night. Tho bolts of light
ning were blinding and tho peals of
thunder terrific The rain descended
in torrents, swelling tho streams con
siderably and in a number of places
doing much dnmago to the growing
crops. About twelvo o'clock lightning
struck Shanks Tunkcr church, situated
about one milo and a half south of
Grecncaslle, burning it to tho ground.
Tho building was a large brick one, and
was ono of tho finest and lnrgest own
ed by that denomination in this county.
Tho lightning struck near the roof,
running along tho cornico nud setting
tho entire upper part on fire. Tho
light was distinctly seen in Greencas
tlo, and tho alarm given. Ono of tho
companies responded promptly nnd it,
with tho assistance assistance of the
citizens of town, succeeded in remov
ing all tho property in tho lower part
of tho building, Thero was a quanity
of bedding, bedsteads, dishes; knives,
forks, etc., used at tho love feasts in
tho attic, which wero burned. The
building is totally destroyed, only a
portion ot tho walls standing. There
was no insurance upon tho church as
the Tunkers do not havo their houses
of worship insured. About six o'clock
in tho evening the James M. Brown
homestead at Brown's Mill, occupied
by Hiram Small, was also struck. The
family, fortunately, were at the barn
attending to tho feeding and milking,
thus escaping all injury. Tho bolt
struck the rod, which proved a non
conductor. Tho fluid ran down through
tho house and out to tho cistern, setting
tho building on fire in soveral places,
and before any asssstanco could be
procured the entire building was en
veloped in flames, nnd all of it that re
mained is n charred and blackened
mass. Tho family succeeded in saving
a largo portion of tho furniture, but a
great deal was lost. Tho building was
stone nnd frame.
Two of the Fhconix Park Assassins Make a
Confession.
There was quite a sensation at the
opening of tho trial of Patrick Dolaney
and Thomas Cafferty, two of tho men
charged with participation in tho Phce
nix Park murders, beforo Judge O'Brien
in Dublin. Tho two had scarcely been
seated in tho prisoners' dock beforo
they asked to be heard, and formally
entered a plea of guilty, and, despite
assurances that their confession would
in no way lighten tho penalty, they
persisted in having it entered.
When Delanoy was called upon to
plead, he said: "I am guilty of being
in tho park at tho time Lord Frederick
Cavcuuish and Mr. Burko were killed,
but I did not commit murder. I plead
guilty to that, but not to murdering
them." The Judge explained to him
that this really amounted to a plea of
innocence. Delaney then formally
pleaded guilty. IIo said: "I was
brought into this nt first foolishly, not
knowing what it was. I was forced
from my work to go to tho park. Wo
had to obey tho orders of tho society
or tane tno consequences. v lien 1 not
in tho park I could not get away. I saw
the murders committed, but took no
part in them. I went to tho park on
Kavanagh's car. Ho speaks tho truth.
So does Carey. Tho murders were com
mitted by Joe Brady and Timothy
Kelly, nnd by nobody else. I saved
Judgo Lawson's lifo at tho risk of my
own. I was put on to shoot him by
Mullett nnd Brady, and tho only way
to escape tho task was by calling tho
guard's attention."
Judgo O'Brien, in passing sentenco
on Delaney, said ho had n duty to per
form. He had, at the previous trial of
tho prisoner for attempting to shoot
Judgo Lawson, pitied him, because ho
showed somo fooling for tho wlfo and
family. The prisoner would see to what
misery they had been brought by the
wicked system of tho conspiracy. Tho
enormity of tho crime and tho penco
and welfare of society precluded tho
possibility of passing any sentenco but
that of death. Tho fact that ho had
pleaded guilty could not, unfortunately,
bo taken into account, nnd tho prisoner
was well awaro of it boforo ho mado
his confession, Tho Judgo then sen,
tcuced him to be hanged on Juno 2
next.
When CalTrey wasplaoedin tho dock
his faoo wore a smllo. Tho consequence
of pleading guilty wa again fully ex.
plained to him in open court, hut ho
persisted in his plea. On being asked
whether ho had anything to say why
sentenco should not be passed upon him,
Caffroy replied, in a loud, clear voice;
"All 1 havo to say, standing ns I am on
tho brink of tho grave, is that when I
went to Phiunlx Parle I did not know
what was going to happen until twenty
minutes beforo tho murder was com.
milted. I wan bound to go to tho Park
under pain of death."
IIo was sentenced to bo hanged on
tho samo day ns Delaney.
Crop ReporU for May.
Tho North Toxas reporter for tho
National Agricultural Bureau makes
tno iollowing crop report for May l :
"Whont is lato but lookB well i and
barley hardly an average, but little of
tho former sown. Nntlvo hay, our
only spring pasture is looking well i
oom all planted nud good stand cot
ton not all planted, but somo is up; tho
stand will be good, having had rains
recently. There will be less plnutcd
owing to tho low prices and scarcity of
labor, particularly at paoking time.
Tho farmers arc behind hand with
tholr spring plowing. Tho spring
planting of all crops aro about tho
Bamo as last year. Tlioro will bo n
largo crop of millet Our season and
planting this year are about twenty
days late, notwithstanding which pros
pects are good. Tho recent rniiiB liavo
iivon now life, nnd planters aro cheer
ful and hopeful.''
Beports on Dixmont Asylum,
Tho Dixmont Asylum reports nro
published. Senator Hart, of this dig
tiict, signs tho majority one, which
docs not convict tho management of
permitting tho maltreatment of pationts,
or tho detention of insano persons. It
does however, assume that tho
State, by reason of the largo amount it
contributes to tho support of the insti
tution, should havo a controlling influ
ence in the management, and recom
mends legislation with that in view.
It further alleges that Dr. Reed is too
much enfeebled physically for tho ar
duous duties devolving upon him, and
argues that tho medical supervision of
the patients nnd tho business manage
ment of tho concern should be in other
hands. It ohargrs that patients havo
beon admitted to Dixmont upon the
certificate of an outside physician, nnd
ono of tho two assistaut physicians
connected with the institution, which
is a violation of tho law, and a plain
wrong. Tho keeper of an insano per
son should not be empowered to havo
part in deciding whether ho should bo
placed under his control as keeper.
Tho minority report claims that Dr.
Reed is in tho power of intellectual
strength, and fully competent in every
way for his trust. They say private
parties have contributed nt least n
half million of dollars to tho institution
nnd that there' is neither law nor fair
ness in tho assumed right of the State
to take tho management out of the
hands of theso individual donors.
They point to the Tewksbury investi
gation now in progress in Massachu
setts as sufficient evidence that hos
pitals managed by States may bo in
famously raanaced. They admit that
tho certificates of tho insanity of tho
proposed patients by physicians con
nccted with tho hospital is a question
able practice, but explains that it some
times saves expense to parties who
would otherwise be seriously burdened
by tho cost of securing tho admission
of fiiends needing the care nud treat
ment of tho institution. Tho reports
were laid on tho tablo to be disposed of
when printed. Williamtport Sun
and Hanner.
