And ytt, there are Mine rertons who eoulil not find any to pierce them if there ntre twice that Dumber. The Republican rnemU-n t the Ilou-e at Harrisbur, on Monday tnused a resolution rndorMii the court of Bpoaker Reed during his term e Hpvak er of the Fifty-first OonRresp. The re solution was passed by a stritt larty vote. Ill klixoto.n, Vt.( held its first elec tion tinder a ballot-refurm law on Tue das. and for the first time in twenty years fleeted a I Vinotratie Mayor. Free and fair eWti.ms seem to result in Dem ocratic sueee? with fctr.-nj:ly suggestive uniformity. Thk New York Herald thus truly an swers a timely conundrum: '"What w a subsidy? Well, when a company owns aline of MeamfhipK and can't make it pay, some congressman offers an appro priation bill to make up the deficit from the federal treasury." Thk Fifty-first Congress, says the New York llrrald, left the walls of the Treas ury vaults standing, which id something to be thankful for. Now the people must pay heavier taxi and get us ou a got! footing again. That is what the people are for under the present Admin istration. Thk appointment of James Kil duff, editor of the Galiitzin Virulietitur, as one f the Commissioners to revise the bituminous coal laws of this State is a gotxl one. Mr. Kilduff is a firm friend of the miners, understands their needs and in the revision of the laws their in trests will be ablv taken care cf. Co.sc KitsiSG the appointment of Sen ator Blair to be Minister to China, the New York World says:. "The appoint ment itTeminently fit. He is more Chi nese than American in his idesis, and besides he can do lo harm in China." He might be useful to the Chinese, too, in teaching them how to manage educa tional bills of a national character. GovEuxou Him. of New Y'ork has re fused to surrender a fugntive from Con necticut justice on the demand of act ing Governor Morgan U. Rulkeley, on the ground that Bu'keley is not legally the Executive but holds the Gubernatorial office in defiance of the will of the people, of the State. He is simply a usurjer as has been judicial ly shown by the proper authorities of that State. Thf following are the names of the members of the commission to revise tho bituminous coal laws: Andrew Hunt, of Allegheny, First district; Ed ward Bell, of Westmoreland, Second dis trict; Robert Sneeden, of Mercer, Third district; William B. Wilson, of Tiogo, Fourth district; John Kirk, of Fayette; James W. Kilduff of Cambria; William Barker, of Allegheny; John Bond, of Centre, Fifth district. Is view of the extravagant cost to the Government of the funerals of dead Sen ators and Congressmen, it would be a wise provision if the next Congress would pass a law requiring dead statesmen to be cremated and their ashes sent home by mail. They are generally believed to be merchandise while living, and when reduced to oehes ought to travel in the same class. One cent an ounce and free delivery would be a great sav ing to the Government. Thk revenue's of the Government for the fiscal year ending June 30, were estimated by the Secretary of the Treas ury at 172,000.000. For the fiscal year ending June 30, ls'J, the estimate is S-lJ.OOO.OOO. Upon this basis of es timated revenue the profligate Congress which adjourned finally made appropria tions which Senator Carlisle thinks will reach t.'L'ii.noO.CXHX This extravagance is without parallel, as it is without excuse-, like plundering mercenaries eacking the burning city, the ReedCon gress has snatehexl at everything in sight. With authorized outgo nearly 1 100,000,000 in excess of probable re ceipts, the Treasury will U bankrupte-d. A deficit of not less than $5e0(H.,000 will certainly have to lie provided for by the next Congress. TiiKKEhasbccn little in the Conduct thus far of the Legislature cf Pennsyl vania, says the Philadelphia AVxnf, that ceiuld afford hope of fair and honest leg islation at its hands; yet the Scauor An ti-Discriminotion bill, which is designed simply to carry into effect a plain pro vision of the Stato Constitution, surelv dese-rved Itetter treatment than a con temptiutus negative reitort in the House from the Judiciary General Committee. iecure in the favor of the great railway corporations, these, legislators may fan cy that their servile abasement will lie acce-pte-d by the jjeople of the State as a permanent legislative condition. Rut they are mistaken. The voters of Pe-nn-sylvani.i are becoming aroused to the gravity e.f the offense of persistently de nying the means of enforcing a plain ml equitable constitutional provision; and when the storm shall come coritora tion influence wiil not save the men who Lave lnrayed the public interests at Harrisbnnr.

They are merely mentioned by the Tribune for thrj purpose of having (something that it can successfully deny. The statement i'f the Tribune that Sher iff Ftineman performed his duty in a very successful but in an extraordinari ly tender manner,' L- but a reietition of part of the statement of the Freeman. If Sheriff Stineman wag appalled when he mounted the scaffold with Marsh ami saw the immense audience thai the managers had let in to see the exhibi tion, tacked in the jailyard as close as Sardinia in a box, he did not show it. If, as he stated on the scaffold, after the execution, his "patience haditeen sorely tried" it was no wonder. Sheriff Stine man dune his duty bravely, but sadly erred when he left the box containing the blank paset-B within reach of the Chairman of the Republican County Committee and the Deputy Revenue Collector for this district. The statement of the Fuekma.v that the Chairman of the Republican County Committee and the Deputy Revenue Collector for this district were issuing passe to the execution has not, will not and cannot e denied. There are too many of the seven hundred spectators that know letter. An inmate of tho State Penitentiary of Colorado, haa devised a plan by which a convicted murderer is made to exe cute himself and a bill has U-en offered in the legislature of that State to adopt the plan of execution. That the bill will meet with objections on moral as well as on other grounds goes without saying. In this county, supposing poor Marsh could have quietly executed him self, how many of the seven hundred who are now or ought to be considering themselves under obligations to the Chairman of the Republican County Committee for the chance of witnesng the great moral show, would have been disapjtointed! The benign influences of a Christian hanging, unde-r the manage ment of theChairman of the Republican County Committee in this county would have been lost. The idea of a law of thct 'viud may le entertained in a front ier WeMern State like Colorado, where the refinements of civilization are but budding; but here in Pennsylvania, a State dotted over with churches and Schools, where civilization has got her growth and reached maturity; where even calamities are regarded as but the chastisements of Providence intended for our good and where the execution of an unfortunate criminal, under the manage ment of a Chairman tf a Republican County Committee with the proper means of grace, may lie turned into a Republican bitting, the law we believe will never 1 looked upon with favor. Forbid it, heaven ' It has tome to light that the funerals of three United State-s Senators Hearst, Miller and I5eck have cost the Govern ment 2o2,000, or em an average, about $77,GTi6 apiece. At the fuueral of Sen ator Irearst nine Pulman cars, in addi tion to those provided fur the family and congressional committees, were attached to tho train that bore the dead Senators' remains across tho continent to Califcr nia. The nine Pulman coaches were filled with dead-head relatives and friends of Senators "and Congressmen who had not the remotest interest in the funeral as mourners, but who were anx- i ious to make a free trip to the Pacific elope at the expense of the Government, with wines and refreshments free. The funerals of dead statesmen are turned into junketing picnics for political bum mers who have the pull with Senators and Congressmen and instead of being a mark of resttect are but the occasion for looting the Treasury for the benefit of the political and personal dependents of the men, sent to Washington to take care of the people's interest!- The magnificent -Treasury surplus cf 100.0O0,000 left by Cleveland's admin istration, says the Philadelphia lUcord, is gone, and the Treasury is threatened with an early deficit of 0,000,000. Rut the conditioned the fiuane'es had no restraining influence upon the Repub lican majority in Congress. They went on accumulating exjienditures for indi gent tensions, sulsidies and other like extravagances as if there had been no bottom to the Treasury. In vain the Democratic minority protested against this recklessness and wa.te. The min ority could only look on while Speaker Reed manufactured his quorums out of me-mlters not present or voting, and lashed his followers into support of de'sptrate and tle-structive partisan pro gramme. What doe-s a discerning pub lic think, in the end, of Speaker Reed's parliamentary system and its legislative results? How long would it take such a statesman, practicing such a system, to bring popular government into the deep est repreiach? General John M.

The UiiiUl fctatey Treusiiry is tuikrupt, 6 far ue the reckless rul extravagant ap propriations voted by the liep-blieaa iVimrni can , i i malue u so, anil it woum! be actually so to-Uay xi all of the appropriations had to be paid at once. In the dying hours of the Fifty first Congress the Republicans threw prudence, conscieni'e, fear of the here after and every othe-r restraining in fluence ove'rboard, and boldly voted for every possible thing that promised to assist in the looting of the Treasury, which their leaders had agreed upon for the purpese of confroting the Democra tic Congress with a deficiency. Old ruoulely claims that had been refused a hundred times were tacke-d on the ap propriation bills, and railruaded through, extra salaries were voted to employee who are already paid beyond their de serts, and money was scattered around in every direction as though the Treasu ry was overflowing to the Republicans. Where the mony is to come from to pay all of these wild appropriations is more than anyone can see at this time; it isn't in the Treasury nor can it possi bly get there under the present methods of taxation. Two years of Democratic economy in the House and a purging of the pension rolls of the frauds thereon may pull the country through without making it necessary to put new taxes uf)Oii the already tariff ridelen people. The Republican ox-Re-presentatives are loath to le'ave Washington until Mr. Harrison has tlistributed the plums now at his disposal, which includes nine new U. S. circuit Court judges as provided by the new law, which purports to be for the relief of the Supreme Court, but Mr. Harrison pre'posos to try their patience, as he is going to Maryland to-morrow for a few days of wild duck shooting, and says he will do nothing in the mat ter until his return. Ex-Speaker Reed has a pretty thick skin, but he couldn't hide the chagrin he felt when every Democrat in the House voted against the usual re-solution of thanks that Mr. McKinley, after vainly trying to persuade a Democrat to do it, had offered. Served him right is the verdict among: Democrats. Senator Vilas is here looking just as natural as when under Mr. Cleveland. He says that Wisconsin has cut loose from the Republican party for good and all, and that her vote may be confident ly counted upon for the Democratic can didate next year. It is pleasing to know that the Fifty first Congress eiid one good thing. It passed the International copyright bill, although it was apparently done under a misunderstanding, and Mr. Harrison signed it with a quill jten, from the wing of an American eagle, which had been provided for the occasion by one of the editors of the Century magazine. Senator Edmunds is entitled to thanks for having balked Senator Plumb's scheme for transferring the employes of the Census bureau to the regular clar ified departmental service, without the formality of a civil service examination. Mr. Plumb attempted to hitch it on to an appropriatie-n bill, but Mr. Edmunds raised a jMiint of order against it, which was sustained by the chair. And while giving thanks I must not forget the Democrats in the House, who with the aid of a few Republicans jumped ujion the Pacific cable sul-sidy "job", after it had be-en agreed to by a conference ceimmitte-e, and strangled the OTe from it. The Democ-ratic Senators also deserve well for the smartnesa they displayed in preventing the mail. subsidy bill from being sent to & conference committee, which would surely have incorporated the tonage subsidy dill in it. It is much be-tter to accept the least of two evils than to have to take them both. Senator Inpalls made a very- "small" use of his last othcial hour. " He dis missed the clerk of the committee of which he was chairman and apointed his son, Paul Ingalls, clerk to the com mittee.

Rochester, March. 9. Matilda Cun ningham is at her home, 24 Cortland street, the victim of her sister's jealous spite, her face badly burned bv vitriol. Matilda, aged 27 years, and her eister Iena, three years older, room in the house of their uncle, Michael McFar land. They occupy separate beds in the same room, directly ever Mr. McFar land's sleeping apartments. At 1 o'clock this morning Mr. McFarland was awakened by a woman's shrieks. Jumping from bed he discovered Ma tilda6tanding at thesink, bathing her face and head and groaning terribly. - Just then Ieua was seen running from the house. She was followed, and the po liceman on the beat arrested her. She would not talk. A doctor was sent for, and the unfor tunate woman was found to be badly disfigured. Her forehead, cheeks and nose were badly burned, and the eye browe entirely gone. It is thought the sight is also destroyed. Matilda was sleeping at the time the vitrei was thrown. A tiart cf the con tents cf the bottle burned a large hole in the tick.

Tb Coroner's jury finds that tho officers and directors of the company are legally responsible) for the reason that their agent, Engineer Fowler, was unable to distinguish tho danger signal, and for the further reason that the wreck was fired by a car stovo which the company used in violation of the laws of the State of New York. The verdict is based on the assumption that a white light, when seen through smoke and fog, liecomt red as eilciarity increase, while a yellow light become red with still lew obscurity. In other woreLs, that had electric arc lights been used for signals instead of the etrdiuary yellow light, the accident would not have happened, and hence the directors, in ne'glecting the mean6 for safety, are criminally responsible. Mr. Dejew gave bail in the sum of $23,000, his bondsman being Mr. Cor nelius Vanderbilt, and the trial will doubtless be one of the most important and interesting in the history of that class of cases bearing upon the doctrine of criminal negligence. If the grand jury shall find true bills against the- ac cused, and they are put upon trial for their liberty, they will spare no effort to make their defense as complete as pos sible. The burden will be upon them to show why they continued the use of the car stove after they had been for bidden by law to do 60. But the chief interest will center in the degree of re sponsibility which the law imposes , not merely upon trainmen and others direct ly concerned in the can-vine of passen gers, but upon the directors, who have the entire management in their hands and who have it in their power to decide what is necessary and what is not necessary to guard against fatal accidents. JHiUburg CommercUU. Trn by a LIoo. I 'a kip, March 9. A terrible scene, by which a well-known lien tamer will lose his life, was witnessed at the hippo drome in this city do-day. The sjtecta cle of "Nero" is being prepared at the hippodrome, and one of the features cf the show, as propposed, is an attack by a number of lipns upon wooden figures so arrangetl in the arena as to represent human Iteiugs. Sects, the lion tamer, had just concluded the day's drilling or training of sL lions for this performance, and was driving them into their cages when one of them sullenly refused to re enter his cage. Seels managed to cage the remaining five lions, and then turned his attention to the rebellion: an imal, which had taken refuge in a neighboring passage. Sects armed himself with a lance and trietl to dislodge the refractory lion, but in so doing he tripped and lost hold of 1 ,'oar3'i off- "d looking inside, saw lying on his lance, the weaiton rolling several ,' ,tUe wLeal H sack and a ,na"V, Lat- Short yards away from him.

Seet's cries for help soon brought another traine r to the se-ene. The latter caught up the lance and gallantly attacked the lion, inflicting a severe wound yi the animal's forehead. Cowed by the wound received, the lion released Sects and slunk into its cage. Medical assistance was proinptlv sent for, and everything possible was done to pave the lion tamer's life, but the latest repetrts are that lie is in a dy ing condition. Trjing His ew knife. San Dieoo, March 6. A story cf a hor rible crime comes from San Quentin, Iower California, which rates among the horrors of Nero's time. On Sunday last Joseph F. Muir, a half-breed, made an attempt on the lifeof Filer Sanchez, who was lying asleep on the sidewalk ia front of a saloon. Muir came !onw Un SJS'g"" altout half drunk and tried to awaken x ailing he etitencd i , ? " V --.m uu, urawing a Jiune. jnaue a motion to elisem i.:. He feared the job could ru.f done with a dull knife, for after feeling the edge of the blade, he stepped inside and sharpened it quite deliberately on a stone, trying it occasionally on his own dampened finger, and then smiling at the bystanders, who thought he was jesting. He finally secured the proper edge, and, kneeling by the side cf San chez, plunged the blade in the sleeping man's abdomen, partially withdrew it, ran it over against the hip bone,, and turned it upward as far as the ribs would allow it to go. Muir then pulled the shirt back over the wound, straightened up, smiling at the ttrsons around him licked the blood from the blade on one side and placed the knife in the scab bard by his side. He was seized by those who witnessed the crime and placed in custody. Sanchez was alive at last accounts. Referring to his crime, Muir says he was a good friend of San chez, but he wanted to try his new knife. He is now in jail at Fjisenda. Tne Folly or Writing Letters. Logasspoet, Ind., March 10.

If the so-called hotel keeper of St. Aug ustine and Chest Springs depended ujion the traveling public for a living for three months, they would be under another kind of patma-e before the end of this time. Ignorance runs riotously when boudsiuen aud signers of such license petitions fear not to he tarred with the same imtimrality that hovers about their blasphemous, drunkard-making grog-shoiis. They prob ably have greau-r uread of tar, however, titan of immorality. Such men. if not thus Ignorant, are as suredly brimful of hatred for their neigh bors when they do all they can to umke. drunkards, blasphemers aud idlers of them. It is claimed oy a great many people that every applicant for w hisky license will bo successful because, certain elections are soon to be made. Such claimants should know that it is known it matters little, however, w hether it is known or imt that the voters are not all, nor nearly all, advo cates of a demoralizing rendezvous at ev ery cross-roads. Necessity for a hotel should lie the first condition. There can be no such thing as necessity growing out of the appetite of a few local bondsmen and signers. An occasional stranger pass ing through the place Is not a sufiicient reason for the Stale to commit a suicidal aeuion like licensing whisky-shops at w hich Its local citizens may. choosing the imperfection of their liberty, unman themselves by drunkenness or habitual drinking. A necessity in this cax should sipnify such a frequency of strangers that the hospitality of the place, wouid bo ex hausted in a very short tim. The stranger-traveler who needs hospltalitv at St. Augustine or Chest Springs are so 'few that onet-pare Ited-room at each place wonld. en an average more than accommodate them. Strangers, penniless and poor, pass ing through these places, have no trouble In Ending lodging and a rmeal at other houses than the taverns.
