The Ink used in printing government
notes was invented by James Eddy, of
Troy, X. Y. At his death the secret was
imparted to his son, who holds it, and
hue a monojjoly in that branch of the

a year to him.
Senator Kknna, of West Virginia,
who has been seriously ill for several

doubtful if he recovers.
The long dela ed Cunard liner Umbria

The long contested canvass of the
vote of the Fifth Michigan district has
been completed and (Jeorge F. Richard
son, Iemocrat, declared elected by 10
niaioritv in a poll of 43,000. This will
make the next House stand: Demo
crats, 21S; Republicans, 118; Populists,
S. This accounts for 254 mem Iters, but
two remain to Ik; elected in Rhode Is
land. The Treasury Department at Wash
ington has sent out an order absolutely
prohibiting the importation of rags from
foreign iorts where chiiera is known to
I; prevailing or may hereafter prevail.
Collector Beard, of Boston, in com
menting on the order, said that the pro
hibition was of great concern to the
manufacturers of fine paper in Massa
chusetts.
The memorial of the Legislative As
sembly of Xew Mexico praying Congress
for admission to the I'nion should re
ceive a favorable response at the present
session. The Territory has a population
of 173,000, which is nearly equal to the
combined population of Montana, Ida
ho and Wyoming at the date of their
admission. The assessed value of the
properly is also much greater than that
in any of these Suites.
The public scandals connected with
public moneys that are breaking forth
in Europe seem to indicate that monar
chies and empires as well as Republics
1 1 reed office-holding rascals; but appar
ently they have had a greater power of
suppressing news alxut them and their
doings, (lermany is now discovering
that there is something unpleasant to
learn about the relations of some of its
own officials to the public funds.
Focr years ago President Cleveland
sent a few minor appointments to the
Senate, which the Republican Senators
refused to confirm on the ground that
they were made after the President's de
feat. Xow the same Senators are vot
ing to confirm a large number of Presi
dent Hamon's appointments, although
made nearly two months after his over
whelming defeat. This is Senatorial
courtesy or discourtesy, according to the
point of veiw from which you look at it.
The crisis in the French government,
precipitated by the exposure of the
Panama Canal fraud and bribery, is be
lieved to be past, and the Republic is re
garded as Ix'ing still safe from the in
trigues of Bonaparte and Bourbon Roy
alists. But France is always in a state
of unrest. Its Republic is not like the
United States. Its Cabinet goes up or
down with the whim of the populace,
or its Parliament, not defending, as
here, on the verdict of a general election
Election contests are not popular with
the people, but this one was forced upon
the Republicans by the action of the
Democrats in bringing the Allen-Stine-man
contest, and as it lias leen com
menced, we hojie it will be thoroughly
contested on Uth sides, and let the man
l seated who has a majority of the le
gal votes cast. Elienxburg llrrald.
The man who got the majority of the
legal votes cast id seated now and if it
was not owing to the fact that the county
is expected to pay the costs the contest
would never be heard of.
Twenty years ago General Garfield
assorted in a speech in the House of Rep.
resentatives; "I am the last man to say
a word against voting pensions to all
ersons who deserve them. But I wish
to say to the House that more frauds
are U'ing jerpetratcl on the Government
by claim agents in different 'tortious of
the country thau from almost any other
single source." The; assertion were
made at a time when the total annual
pension expenditures were hvs than f.W,
H0,000 expenditures which General
Garfield declared to lx; "swollen beyond
all account." Tli official denands for
the next fiscal year are $165,000,000!

eral Garfield ddHcribu ItMSe detuaiHlti.
A large growth of humbug states
manship will be summarily cut down
and sent to the rubbish-heap, says the
Xew York World, when this Republican
Administration ends.
A Democratic Congress will put an
end to the charlatanry which is called
reciprocity. There will l no more
threatening to tax citixens of the Uni
ted States if some oor nation in Cen
tral or South American does not stop
taxing its citizens.
There will le an end to taxation for
bounties only, under the false claim
protection to Ameiican industries."
The Rehring Sea difficulty will Ik' set
tled bv the arbitration already appointed
forthatpurix.ee. There is little chance
that we shall come out of the affair with
honor, because honor was not consulted
in the making up of our case. But
there will be no more nonsense of that
sort.
There will le an end of the Calico
Charley methods of Treasury manage
ment and of Treasury iKMj'ikeeping
We shall know where we stand as a na
tion financially within a few month?
and there will le no further attempts to
conceal the truth and fool the people.
There will le an end of the partisan
and corrupt Tanner-Raum manage
ment of the Tension Bureau.. Millions
will not le squandered during the next
Administration for pensioning the un
deserving in order to hril! voters.
There will 1x3 an end of the Wana-
maker regime of cant, hyixx-risy and
counter-bartraining iu the Post Office
Department.
The next President is a IVmocrat and
his name is Grover Cleveland.
Before the retirement of Governor
Pattison from office Pennsylvania will
prac'ically Ik? out of debt, says a Harris
burgSjHH'ial of Wednesday. According
to the annual statement of State Treas
urer Morrison and Auditor-General
Gregg the net debt at the close of the
fiscal year ended Xov. I0 last was
$2,000,592,43. The debt is U ing re
duced at the rate of nearlv a million and
a half dollars annually while theordina
ry receipts from taxes are largely in
creasing.
Although an increase of , 000,000
was paid to the school districts of the
State last year, there was a balance iialht
general fund of the State Treasury on
Xovemter 30 last of $5,3'.S, 191, So.
The receipts from all sources last year
were not as large as during the twelve
months ending on Xovember 30, lS'.ll,
but the difference is due to the large
amount then received trom the Nation
al Government and favorable litigation
The receipts last year were $10,748
759,08, while the payments aggregated
$11, 727,968, S. The state debt was re
duced $1,417,103 and $375,223,46 were
paid to defray expenses incident to the
Homestead riots.
The chagrin of the Republicans, says
the Harrisburg Patriot, at the apparent
loss of the Senate in Xovemlter through
the elections of that month is doubled
now ty tneir lauure to "count in as
they had hoped to do enough to con
tinue it Republican. The present Sen
ate stands 47 Republicans, 39 iH-nux-rats
and 2 members of the People's party.
Thirty Senators go out with Mr. Harri
son, 19 of these being Republicans and
11 Democrats.
In the new Senate the most hopeful
view our opponents can take gives the
Republicans 39, the Democrats 44, the
Populists 5, with Stewart of Xevada in
the latter classification. As the vote of
the vice-president will be cast with the
I emocrats this will make one of a I Vnio-
cratic majority all the time, with the
likelihood that at least 3 of the 5 Popu
lists will vote w ith the lKmocrats on all
important questions, particularly on
the tariff.
Following is a complete list of articles
each member of the House of Represen
tatives found on his desk on Tuesday
morning, they having lxen placed there
under the direction of Chief Clerk Yoor
hees: Smull's Legislative HandlMMk,
brass penrack, paper and envelopes,
writing-pads, a costly ivory letter ojK-ner,
knife, paper of pins, box of pens, Untie
of ink, scissors, bottle of mucilage, pens,
and pencils, handsome gilt-edg-d leather-covered
memorandum Uxik with
money purse attached, an eraser, a fold
ing corkscrew, paper weight, hair brush
and comb. Several memliers "kicked"
liecause they had not leen supplied with
a lox of toilet soap, towuls, bath
sponges, valise and a bathing role.
They may get all these things later in
the session.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania,
on Tuesday handed down a decision sus
taining the action of the Allegheny
county court in fining a newsdealer four
dollars for gelling a newspaer on Sun
day. The fine was imposed under an
old law puss! in 1794, and while it may
have fitted the times when it was passed
it is yery much out of joint with the
present age. The Chief Justice and hig
learned colleagues declare that they are
in favor of the law as "a wise and bene
ficial statute, but against ila enforce
ment except in special cases bex-a use "too
literal an interpretation and enforcement
of it may create an antagonism that
may lead to its repeal."
Among important matters of legisla
tion Vi be taken up at Harrisburg it is
expected that the labor troubles at
Homestead will receive a large share of
attention. Bills will probably be intro
duced in this connection providing for
the compulsory arbitration of disputed
between employer and employes and
others prohibiting the introduction of
Pinkerton detectives or other armed
Lodics of men to any locality tending
the ftuttLement of such disputes. Others
aiming at tlue alleged use of the militia
in behalf of capital and limiting the
power of the Government iu casing the
state trooufl into active service are an-
tidpatod.
Washington Letter.
Washington D. C, IVc. 31, 1892.
Speaker Crisp's visit to President-elect
Cleveland, on a sjecial invitation from
the latter, has leen the most absorbing
topic of conversation in xlitical circles
this week. The visit of tlie Jspeaker ot
the Democratic House the highest po
sition now held by a iVniiK-rat to the
Iemocralic President elect was, of course,
naturally an event of great interest to
lemK rats, but the efforts of the busy
hodiis who have ever since the election
Uen striving to create the impression
that these two eminent Democrats were
antagonistic towards each other has
made it of interest to everybody, except
the aforesaid husv-lxxlies who expressed
Ioubts alMiit the two men holding a con
ference until it had actually U-ei held.
That was natural, too, for that confer
ence top Mil overall of the carefully con
stricted stories of enmity Ix-lween the
SjK-aker and the President-elect which
had Ik'cii so widely circulated during the
last six or eight weeks. Those w ho pro
fess to s"e something strange in the in
vitation ami visit forget that for nearly
two years piist Sjaker Crisp has loeii
the official leader of the Democratic par
ty. The strange thing would have U-en
for Mr. Cleveland, the leader elect, to
have negW-ted to get the views of the
party's present official leader.
Senator Carlisle's exjK rience with the
Xew York reenters tins week caused
him to "swear off" on iK-ing inter
viewed. He says he was approached by
some twenty odd rejxirters and to each
of them he gave the same answer that
he had nothing to say to the public;
yet every one of them wrote up inter
views with him, making him say things
he had never dreamed of. He says,
further, that any future publication pur
porting to Ik his opinion wiiich does not
have his signature attached will le lx
gus. Mr. Carlisle's friends say that for
private reasons he has declined the Sec
retaryship of the Treasury, which Mr.
Cleveland tendered to him.
A rumor is current here that Mr.
Cleveland has succeeded in persuading
Hon. lvii. M. Dickinson to be his Sec
retary of State. This, as the late Arte
mus Ward would have said, is imtiort
ant if true. Mr. Dickinson told his
friends when he was here the other day
that he would not be a member of the
cabinet.
A Senator who saw and talked with
Mr. Cleveland this week says that one
of the first things he projxs-s to do af
ter liecomiiig President is to put a man
at the head of the ension bureau who
will take the work of that office entirely
out of politics and run it on strictly bus
iness piinciples.
SjK'uker Crisp has some very decided
ideas on the immigration question, and
they do not agn-e w ith those most jxjpu
lar just now. He thinks it will 1x3 a
mistake to susK'nd all immigration, but
favors the enactment of laws that will
shut out and keep out the undesirable im
migrant, w hile welcoming those made of
the stuff to make good citizens. He
fears, however, that the cholera scare
and other influences will be too much
for Congress, and that some very radical
legislation may le railioaded through.
The Inauguration committee has
ojtened headquarters, and, notwithstand
ing some friction among citizens con
cerning the nit-inlK'i-ship of the commit
tee, everything is now moving harmoni
ously towards the grandest inauguration
the country has ever had.
Representative Geary, of California,
although a young man, has already
gained a reputation for levelheadedness
far leyond that of many of his older col
leagues, and his terse summing up of
what the J 'arty needs will add to that
reputation. He says: "What the
lemocratie party needs mosl is to 'get
together. ( We don't want any rows, or
cliques or sets of men who wish to tear
down present organization and set up
another of their own. It is only by 'get
ting together' that the Fifty-third Con
gress will liable to accomplish the mis
sion of tariff revision which the people
at the k11s directed it to perforin.
If Senator Gray, of llelaware, 1x3
comcs Mr. Cleveland's Attorney-General
as many Deiixx-rats now think, it is ex
pected that ex-Secretary Bayard will
again Ixt-ome a memlx-r of the Senate.
Mr. Harrison has called ujon all the
executive departments of the Govern
ment for information as to unjust dis
crimination against citizens or railroads
of the United Stau-s by the Canadian
Pacific railroad. This is Ix-lieved here
to mean that iie intends to send a so
cial message to Congress recommending
retaliatory legislation.
The sub-committee of the House Im
migration committee having the mat
ter in charge has agreed uikhi a Xation-
al quarantine bill, anil will rejxjrt it to

A Strange Murder.
Bri.nki.ey, Ark., December 29. One
of the strangest murder cases ever
brought to light in Eastern Arkansas is
the one in which John Thomas, a 13-
year old Ixjy, is chargiil with the mur
der of his mother on Monday night in
the Dark Country neighborhood south of
this place. The bov is apparently of
sound mind, and when seen acknowl
edged the murder and gave as his rea
son that she got the gun and gave it to
him and comjK-Hcd him to shoot her
under the threat that she would shoot
him if he did not do as she told him to
do. Medical exjierts Ix-lieve the oy
sane and that his Story is correct. He
does not wem to recognize the enormi
ty of his offense. He was to-day re
manded to jail to await the action of the
grand jury.

wood furnace, in the upper pa.tof this

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Ilel af Lockjaw.
Newark, N. J., Jan. 2. Thomas Ry
an, of 34 Xewton street, died last night
of lockjaw. On Christmas eve, while
working in the yard of his house, he
slipiKd and fell to the ground. His
hand struck the remains of a sunllower
stalk and a small but painful wound was
:nlhcted. He went to a hospital to
have his hand dressed, as there were
two splinters in the wonnd. On the fol
lowing Wednesday the wound began to
trouble him and the flesh around it to
swell. He went back to the hospital
and there, it is alleged, was told that the
swelling did not amount to anything.
This did not satisfy Ryan and he called
on a physician, who poulticed the hand
and otherwise treated it.
On Friday night Ryan began to act in
a jx-culcar manner and to yawn. His
manner caused his wife to become un
easy, and she called upon the druggist.
The druggist told the woman that the
symptoms resembled lockjaw, and she
called a physician. Alxjut 4 o'clock on
Saturday morning she was awakened by
her husband uttering a terrible yell, and
she found him frantically trying to hold
his jaws apart. She seized a soon and
placed it between his teeth, and sum
moned a doctor. Everything jxjssible
was done to relieve the sufferer, but
death was unavoidable. The Sxoii
which his wife had placed tx?tween his
teeth was there when he died. He was
alxait 40 years of age and had been mar
ried nine years, but had no children.

Bangor, January 2. The confession
of a man in a logging camp in the
northern part of Maine, while on his
death-bed, explains the mysterious death
of a man named Walker, w ho was found
shot in the woods two years ago. Walk
er who had leeu laboring in the forest
in the Seboomook Lake region, started
out of the woods with $500, which he
had earned, in his possession.
While on his way he came to a camp
occupied by two men and asked to be al
lowed to stay there that night. His re
quest was granted. According to the
confession, soon afterward one of the
men to whom the camp belonged asked
Walker to go to a spring near by and
get some water. He started to do so,
but as soon as his back was turned the
man seized a gun and shot him. The
wound -vas a mortal one, but the woods
man did not expire for an hour. While
lying bleeding upon the ground he asked
the man who had shot him why he had
done so and received the reply that it
was for his money.
The murdererand his com pan ion took
the dying man to a liear trap, placed
his hands in it so that it would look as
though death had been caused by his be
ing caught there, and left him. It was
the companion of the murderer who re
cently died and made the confession be
fore passing away. The murderer is
still at large somewhere in the northern
part of the state.
KefiiHtdto Marry Her Parents' Choice.
Mkkidks, Conn., Jan. 3. The par- .
ento of Annie Sopatski, a comely Polish i
girl, have tried to force her to marry a
young Polander, who hails from Xew !
Briiian, ami is known as Valentine. '
Alxjut two weeks ago Annie met him for
the first time, and, yielding to the im
portunities of her parents, agretnl to '
marry him. The wedding was set for ;
Iec. 29, but when Valentine appeared i
the girl refused to fulfill her part of the 1
agreement. Valentine gave two days' ;
grace and apM3ared again on Saturday.
The girl had awakened to a realizing
sense of the "deal," and atolulcly re- '
fused to get married. This so enraged !
her mother that she burned up the girl's
wedding trousseau and otherwise abused
her. Annie sought police aid, and her.
lover was ordered out of town under peu-
alty of arrest. Before he went, however, j
he demanded recompense for her failure
to keep her agreement, and the girl gave ,
him $13 of hard-earned money. j

On Thursday morning of last week an
upright boiler in the carpet cleaning es
tablishment of It. It. Hutchinson, Pitts
burg, exploded with terrible force, knock
ing a hole through both side walls. J. O.
Cox. foreman, was blown through one of
the apertures in tlie wall and fell through
the roof of a shed SO feet below. Clarence
Shaw, aged 1, was blown through the hole
in the other side of the building, but his
clothing caught on projecting timbers,
preventing his falling. He was terrihly
bruised and scalded, but will prohably re
cover. It is presumed the explosion was
caused by frozen water pipes.
Wlsiler Noveltle for I.adlea
A Teltl foMume is a pleasing
picture, but a beautiful ball dress is a
poem, iseyer Ijelore lias a winter season
presented a wider range of fast-mating
styles as are witness this year. The taste
for histotieal costumes is increasing as we
goon, and indeed dressmaking at the pres
ent time, absolutely requires some knowl
edge of the costumes of the past. Such
knowledge Is especially needed In hall
dresses, as the latter more closely resem
ble their historical models. It is also in
evening receptions that one sees those re
vived Ptjles, SU( h as Henry H , tho Re
gen je, the l4.eie which do not apar
pn the street iu their pristine garb. Iu or
der to Hud one's way In this lahyriuth of
old and uew fashions one has only to con
sult the McIViwell fashion magazines pub
llshed at 4 West Hth street, Xew York
city. They furnish every needed informa
tion in a most practical manner. "Paris
Album of Fashion" and -La Mode de
Paris' are invaluable, and they -ost only
9XM a year or 3.". cents a copy. '-La Cout
uriere,'' price tt.ui. or .to cents a copy, gives
the most practical styles iu Paris. A
premium book, "Dressmaking Simplified,"
is given with each vear's suhseripiion for
one of these journals. "La Mode" is the
greatest magazine of. fashion for family
use, costing only fl.a per annum or 15
cents a copy. If you cannot gei these
Journals froniyour newsdealers sena to the
publishers direct.
