Kothschild. A large and heavy envelop-
was received at the bank addressed
to the baron and was opened by M
Zadkovitz, the confidential clerk Of the
well known banker. Just as the clerk
tore open the envelop it exploded w ith
great force, tearing his right eye out and
blowing off some of his fingers.
The police were hastily summoned,
and an investigation was immediately
commenced The remain? of the
strange envelope were picked up and
examined, with the result that the
p iiiee ollicers exp-esx-d the opinion that
i tl,p enveloe was nothing more mau au
infernal machine.
It consisted of pieces of cardloard
tightly bound together and was iiite
bulky. Hut there was nothing Ptrange
in its aapearance, as peculiarly con
strut ted packages of similar appearance
are frequently received at banks ami are
found to contain money, securities or
valuable papers of various descriptions.
The cardlniard envelojK' of mis package,
it is presumed, contained fulminate of
mercury so arranged that when the out
er covering was torn oihmi an explosion
occurred.
I v the combine jieople telt the truth,
tin- iM:ty leaders have been guilty of at
tempting to bribe delegates, and are
therefore subject to criminal indict
ment, tine or imprisonment. If the
ouay leadeis tell tiie truth, the combine
leaders, from governor down, have Ix-en
equally guilty. No Republican wilo has
intelligently and carefully watched the
down grade of his party in I'cnusylvaaia
will deny than both sides are telling the
truth.
J i in.K Wai.i.ack, of Lawrence county,

the commonwealth vs. Charles Moore,
who was charged with abusing a livery
rig. The young man was found guilty.
and when sentence was to be passed hi?
attorneys moved to arrest judgment on
the grounds that the law was unconsti
lulional. The man was discharged from

Talk about a higher duty on tinplate
is rather tardy now, when the present
rate of 1. - cents tier pound has leen in
force for a year with no injurious
effect upon the industry in this country.
Moreover, in spite of the dismal predic
tions of the duty from '2. 2 cents to 1. :
cents per pound the tinplate industry iu
the I'nited States has grown under the
new tariff as never before. Tin and
Terne, a Pittsburg publication, express
es tlie hope that the rate of duty will Ie
increased to 1 . e") cent "as soon the par
ty favoring protective duties again
comes into tun power. 1 lie eagerness
of manufacturers to engage in the man
ufacture of tin vlate under the present
rate of duty shows how extortionate and
how excessive, (even from the protec
tionist standpoint, was the duty of -
cents per pound imposed by the tariff
act of 1VO. Tht.se who are counting
upon an increase in the duty on tinplate
are deluding themselves with false hopes.
Sioux Citv, la., August 2." Karly this
morning in a disorderly house occurred
what was probably a murder and sui-
ide. Max Noack, of Marcus. Ia.. was
found dead in a room with a bullet
wound in his brain. Hy his side lay
Hazel Hammond, an inmate of the
house, with a bullet wound in her head.
The doors of the room in which the
bodies were found were locked and had
to be broken into. The lamp had been
overturned and the clothing of the dead
had commenced to burn when the trag
edy w-as discovered. The cause of the
shooting is unknown.
Noack hail been in the city only a few-
weeks, and was but little known. Ha
zel Hammond, or Ora Minton, as her
right name is said to be, is said to have
come from Central City, Nob , where
her parents are reported to live. Noack,
it is lielieved, was trying to induct- the
woman to leave the live she was leading
ami return to her home and that when
she refused he shot her and then killed
himself. It is reported by some that
Noack was the woman's half brother.
and by others that he was her husband.
Noack formerly worked at (Srand Island
and Lincoln, Neb. The doctors to
night say the woman may live.

Portland. Ore , August 2i A sad
story of a mother's murder of her boy
and a subsequent attempt at suicide is
reported in a special to the Ornjimitin

The wife of James Tetthrow, a well

arose In-fore the others of the family
were awake, and, wrapping her six year
old bov in a quilt, took him to the river
and held iiis head under water until life
was gone.
Throwing the body into the river, she
returned to the house, awakened her
husband, and asked him to go for a doc

over to go to sleep. The wife again left
the house, but this time was followed.
She went to the river and threw her
self in, but was quickly rescued, though
she fought her rescuers with dcsjK'ra
tion. When the boy was missed she told
how she had taken him to a "nice bath
ing pool, and, although he clung to my
neck ami lagged me not to, I put him in
and held his head under the water."
Mrs. Tetthrow is thought to le insane.

It is shown by an analysis of census
figures that more than half the men in
twenty-eight of the forty-nine states and
territories are engaged in agriculture,
and that farming is the leading pursuit
in all of them except New Hampshire,

cut ami New Jersey, where manufactur
ing and mechanical arts take the lead.
There are in the I'nited States ',',000,1 t HI

that intelligent farming pays.

Thk Chicago 7,'o"; reports that at a

Western Freight and T rathe Association
in that city the question of moving the
present corn crop, the largest in the his'

the discussion it was said that with tht
present modes of transportation it would
take more than two years to move the
corn out of Kansas and Iowa to Kastem
points for Kuropean shipment. And
corn is only one item in the output of the

in the much talked of ir.teiview relativt
to returning prosiieritv. "What does
the senator think of the political situa
tion'.'" asked a traveler of an intimate
and confidential friend of one of the Re
publican leaders at Washington. "He
s very sorry, was the frank reply,
'that this wave of prosperity has come
so soon, w hue lie does not regret that
the eople are more prosperous, he
thinks it would have been lietter for the
party if the revival of business could
have been delayed a year or so longer."
What does he think of the political
outlook''" was the next question. The
Answer wa: "He is much disturlied
alioiit it. A few months ago he thought
the Republicans were going to have
things all their own way, but now he
fears that this revival iu business, ami
especially the general increase in wages,
will blind the people to the real facts of

New Castle, Pa., August 1. A most
remarkable case was brought to the no
tice of New Castle physicians tiiis
morning. Ten years ago last June Hor
ace (iraham, a well-known young man
about tiie city, got into a light with
another young man. during which he
was badly cut on the wrist. The wound
healed and gave him no trouble until 1
one day this week, wh.n the pain be- !
came niteu-e ami he called in a phrsi
cian, who found that an at-ess had
forme. I. This morning there was re
moved from the young man's wrist two
inches of the knife blade. The point
was almost against the palm of the
hand, with the sharp edge of the knife
toward the skin. So deeply and tightly
was it imbedded the physicians were
obliged to cut it out. (iraham sup-
oses that during the light he was struck
with the knife aud the blade broke off.

Frke wool is surely working wonders
for labor. Careful and conservative
lists show that since the Wilson reduced
tariff took effect last autumn there has
Im-ch an increase of wages in fifty Amer
ican woolen mills. This is quite pheno
menal, and no logical explanation of the
facts is possible save that the great boom
of free wool which the Wilsou bill gave
American woolen manufacturers has en
abled them to expaud aud branch out
as they have never before done. The
woolen industries are placed by the new-
tariff on high vantage ground for ot
taining satisfactory sales of their pro
ducts both at home ami abroad. Free
trade in raw wools is a bonanza of un
told value to them. This is the logic of
the greatly improved and improving sit
uatiou in all American woolen mills.

Keese lsel Kirjrle.
Port Jervis, N. Y., August 2.". Two
young wheelwomen wearing bloomers,
when alioiit to enter the village of Mat
amoras, early this morning, came sud
denly upon a Hock of ge-se. They
slowed up, and the gei-se attacked one of
the young women, who wore bloomers
They plucked so viciously at her
wearing apparel that thev upset her. It
required the help of two small boys and
her companion to drive the geese away,
after which the women remounted their
wheels and returned in the direction of
Milford. They were city loarders at a
summer n-sort on the New Jersey side
of the river.
o Funeral .Needed lor Mr. Hall.
Franklin, Pa., August 22 An ex
plosion of uitro glycerine occurred just
oub-ide of the city limits atll:L this
morning. A man named Hail, a resi
dent of Oil city, was driving a wagon
loaded with nitro glycerine to the mag
aine on the top of bully hill, and was
within loO feet of the building when for
some unknown cause, the stuff explixl.nl
The wagon and horses were blown lo
atoms and not a vestige of Hall's re
mains are to le found. A hole five feet
deep was torn in the earth. The shock
was so great in Franklin that wiudows
were blown out and a number ot chim
neys were kuocked down.
The most fashionable fabrics for yacht
ing gowns are serge, linen and duck.
Heauriful models are made of white linen
with wide sailor collars of some bright
color. The popular ecru linen collarettes
and plastrons are used both for cotton and
wool dresses. The skirts are gored, lined
with silk and have a stitT interlining half
a yard deep. Mohair is the favorite fabric
for French cycling costumes. The Knick
erlmckers are very full and strapped over
the knee. The skirts are short and made
with Several side-pleats or hox-pleals.
Tin- jackets have full skirts, wide revers
and large sleeves, which describes as well,
the newest coat for early autumn. The
cape w ill continue to be the most popular
ga'liienl on account of the continuation of
the voluminous sleeve. Hotli capes aim
jackets, as well as entire costumes in tailor
style, will he braided in the same color or
black. The. new shades of alpaca are also
braided. Novelties iu woolen fabrics are

ors. The most recent importation of silk
are al! Ihe varieties of faille and corded
silk. Velvets and velvet ribbons appear
in great quantities and velvet flowers in
all varieties and colors will lie used by
the modisis during the coming season.
The Mcdowell fashion magazines n
w hich one s.Hs many illustra-ious uf these
new fancies are very interesting read
ing for this month. They give both
the Paris and New York fashions and are
of invaluable service to the professional
as well as to the amateur dressmaker.
