New OM.EANS, Feb. 1, 18S5.
Now Hint tho wintry or rainy season l
oyer and tho Exposition is completed, let
tbo iiconle como and decido for themselves
if your correspondent has not given a cor
reel account ol tho Exposition so far us our
s-iries of letters bavo leached.
Mardi oras, the great mythological mys
tery, tho auniversary of which is now am
always havo been from a vory remote date,
celebrated in New Orleans willi much
splendor, will on tho 17th of February fur
excel! anything of the kind ever given
hero. Consequently thousands who will
attend tho Exposition haye arranged to
co'na lo this city during the lanious annual
carniyal.
T hero is no mislaklng but that the rail
roads aro not making excursion rates as
low as they might for tho benefit of thoni
selves and tha World's Show. They will
have to ccmo to it and make cheap rales as
an inducement to coma hero.
NKVAIIA.
Commissioner W. N. Havener is justly
proud of tho Kocky Mountain State over
whosa destinies at tho Exposition ho pro
sides. This Is almost exclusively a mining
country. Esmeralda and Larider counties
lead in valuable ores, of which coppr run
ning CO per cent, with cobalt crystals at
inched, taken from a depth of3,0U0 feet, is
displayed. Ores of gold, siller and quick
silver aro rich. Nilrato of soda and salt
from Churchill, sulphur and cinnabar from
Washoe: ricli silver oro from Humbolt
counties receive mnch attention. Ores con
lalning cobalt and Dickie, 15 per cent ; cop
per ore worth 1 n pound; rarbonatcs, red
oxides aro seen. 3!uby silver oro wortli
f 10,000 a ton is commented on. Tho Coin-
stock mine sends tho richest oro, which is
almost pure silver. This minn in the past
thirty years has produced over 315,000,000.
Specimens of oio Iruiu Overman mine
shows dill'crent formations for evciy live
feet to a depth nf 2,500 feet. An ingenous
model el the workings of n mine from tor
faeo to bottom is shown. A petrified birds
nest containing egga, is Iho wonder of the
young jwople who visit this department.
Piaster casts nf tracks of on extinct animal
supposed to be an elephant of hugo dimen
sions are given; Ihey are also rliotographed
where found some 40 feet below Iho surfaro
in a qiiany worked by couvicls. Said
tracks measure three feet in diameter. Also
tracks of imuiense giants of tbe genua
homo measure 22x1-1 inches, their steps ot
stridos aro 0 lect. They wero found iu
saiidslone well preserved. Sufficient lo so
cure perfect casts and to photograph. Some
fine specimens ol free gold and silver with
ores worth $20,000 a ton in glass cases to
be seen not handled. Tho Piute Indians
show much skill in pottery and glass work
sent; fruit does well, but agriculture better;
wheat goes 07 pounds to tho bushel, and 50
husbela to tbo acre. Pine hay unil oats
are exhibited. Irish potatoes weighing
fivo pounds aro excellent. Virginia city
sends a model invention ofa stock car that
seems very practicable and useful.
CALIFORNIA.
Tho golden Slate of the t'aclfio slope Is
under direction of commissioner C. II. Tur-
rlll, and eutsldo of Its untold mineral
wealth showing some handsome ore of free
gold, and wiro silver specimens, it has eov
eied n large space in thu noilhwestern
corner ol the Government Building with a
- llectiou of articles which, fjr variety can
not bo equaled by ony other Ktato. The
appearance of the display is greatly bene
fitted by tbo use of the California redwood
for )oets and shelving throughout. The
exhibit Is installed by counties, the colleo
tion of goods from each county being under
iho surviston of a special commissioner.
This system has had an admirable effect iu

Mr. Packer, of Tioga, has introduced
n bill in the House, which csrtaiuly
should become n law, The bill is urged
by tho Auditor Gauefal, It is to pro
vide for the appointment of a State II ink
Examiner whoso duties shall bo similar
lo those of the Nitloual Hiuk Examiner,
He is to iuspect nil the ilauks, nuke a
report to Iho Auditor Geueral nnd in
quire into tho workings of tho State
lianks iu geueral. This is certainly a
good bill nnd should uj passed by nil
moaus. Your correspondent n Bhort
time ngo had occasion to look over the
statements of botno of the privalu Banks
in the State department und tbete be
discovered that the business done by
some of them, in fact the mot of them
is of tho very worst kind. Some of them
havo Bout in reports shonins that they
have not niado nuy money for several
yoars, In fact are losinu nil the time. It
is unfortuuato that poor, hard-working
people should bo so misled nnd should
have such unbounded confidence, iu these
ko called limits. The majority of them
will be compelled to close up soorer or
later and jf tho people throughout tho
State aro wise they will not put more
money in Ihcso institutions than they
can afford lo lose.

lay, February 2, "An attempted assassina
tion on oco of tho principal thoroughfares
in the middle of tho day. At night n (ear
ful riot, where several hundred Socialist,
of Iho raw head and bloody bones kind, at
tacked a body of police, and I am proud to
asy that tho pnllco covered themsetyes willi
glory and the floor ofConeordla Hall, with
dislocated and haltered Socialists. Tho
socialists began tho war, they attacked tlia
nolico with chairs, spittoons, lager beer
mugs and whatever como hondy. There
wero only Captain McCullough nod threo
policemen at tho start; Herr Most anil Jus
tus Schwab with several hundred at their
backs made It yery lively ond warm for tho
finest, but as soon ns the resorves n.rivcd,
the tide of battle turned clubs wero trumps
an 1 they took every trick. I haye frequent
ly had occasion to grumblo at the police;
but Iho clubbing they gave tbo Socialists on
Monday night, who' wero spoiling for a
fight, like charity, covers a multitudo of
faults. I feel liko excla'mlng In the fulness
or my eoul, "Well done, good ami faithful
servants, club 'cm nguin." We oro gradu
ally nwuking to tha fact that things are
changing. In the oldec time, or tbo good
old time, if you plesso, the employer said
when his shop should bo opened, nnd when
it should bo closed now that soil of thing
Is donn by tho clerks; tho owner of the shop
ha; nothing to say about it. In those days
it tho clerk did not liko his employer he
left him, and if tho employer did not like
his clerk ho discharged him this plan is
somewhat alteied now. It is Irue, that the
clerk reserves to himself tho light of leav
ing whenever ho pleases, but if the em
ployer discharges him, or does not shut up
when told lo do so, bo Is in danger of being
beaten lo death, or of having his windiws
smashed, and his houso blown up, and all
of Ins property destroyed. Now York is
one of the great cities of tho wurhl. In tho
space ofa few miles thcro aro two millions
nf people. New York and Brooklyn,
though representing two municipalities, oro
virtually ono city, bound together as close
ly as the parts of Paris divided b the
Seine, or the districts of London divided by
tho Thames. Our freedom has been our
constant boast, and notwithstanding the
drcadlul scenes of riot through which we
have passed, wo appeared to think that our
social condition was much heller and safer
than the social con i ion of our neighbor.-"
To day wo are brought faeo lo face with the
bard fact, that wo are standing on a vol
cano, which may burstotony moment, in
volving us iu such ruin ami disaster us we
have never known before. Tho triumph
ot anarchy and riot, howeyer, would only
bo of short duration. While Iho criminal
classes whoso business and pastimo ate
murder and Itieft have a mighty following,
and are capable ol much mischief, we have
hero too the elements of social order repro
sented by a well drilled body of lour
thousand police, who havo frequently
proved themselves equal to tho most try
ing emergency; Ihey may occasionally take
a surreptitious glass of whisky when on
duty; inuko luvo lo tho pretty servant girls,
or be blind to the fact that there is such
thing as a gambling houso or a bagnio on
their beats: but when il comes to fighting a
mob and quelling n riot, Ihey are there
every time. In addition to this, wo can
muster twenty regiments nf well drilled and
braye soldiers In an hour; nnd while it is
pussiblo that sooner or later the city may
tulfer from one of those sudden end viulenl
eruptions to which nil great cities are li
able, wo have no fear of the final result, a rid
when tho crisis is past the retribution will
have been so terrible that you will hare no
more of socialistic murder or dynamite as
sanitation lor many years. It is not
pleasant, nevertheless, to bavo our pub'in
streets turned into a Wiiiiblcdoin or Creed
moor, or lo hav our dry goods stores made
a theater for dynamite experiments.
Concordia Hall has beeu the headquar
ters of Socialists nnd dynamiters for several
years past. Quo Justus Schwab, n loisy
ruffian, who keeps agin mill, has beeu a
prominent ica.ier. It Is auout ten years
since he tackled the police last. Thtro was
a riotous meeting in Tompkins Equore, and
tho polieo had orders to disperse it, Herr
Schwab undorlook to ilisnerso tbo nolico
He armrd himscll with a halchrt,anil wont
in, and when he came out he lookod liko a
possible subject for a coroner's iuauest. He
was a badly battered Socialist his friends
could not recognlio him for a week, and
whilo ho frequently behind hi barinvcighs
against the tyranny of '.ho police, ho bus
always contrivol since that time to keep
out of tho way of their clubs. I hope he
was not as forlunato ns usual on Monday
night, and that ho got n taste of Iho locust
Irom '-One of Iho Finest." Nothing but a
good drubbing will bring theso lellows to
llioir smses; to imprison them only gives
them better food and shelter than most ol
them have been used to, aud I think a ;
liceman's club well wielded, will be a much
better euro for socialism in our midst than
flue or imprisonment.
The events of tbo past week have not
been unproductive of good. Wo havo been
awakened to a realization of the danger
that surrounds us, and honest citizens are
banding together iu defence of social order.
Tho miscreants who blew up McOurry's
store will not escape. Society has toe
much at stake to let tho villains go unpun

costs a million of dollars lodo it, and when
Ihey are found make an example oflhem
that will not be forgotten by the present

lint II is said that gambling houses llouiish
iu Iho Captain's bailiwick, and that ho has
waxed fat therein. certain it is that Iho
Captain hath a comfortable bank account,
nnd that bo owuclh many brown stone
houses and other valuablo things, such as
it would bo difficult to compass nn a police
caplalu's salary. Should tho charges
against him now be proved, a notable figure
will disappear from the police force, and it
may render possible the execution of the
law against gambling, which up to the pres
ent timo has been a dead letter.
Tho department ol Public Works has not
csetped tho storm, nnd tho new commls
sinner, Uollin M. Squiro, who four weeks
ago was considered tho luek!e3t man in
New York, may find tho stormy path of
New Yolk politics liko Jordan, a hard road
lo travel. The men who aided his election
nro cursing their folly, as well "they may,
for tho only rccommendatlcn that Iho man
possessed lor one of the most important
officos in tho State of.New York was, that
they knew nothing about him. Tl o
truckling politicians who participated iu
the deal have learned something of him
since, and that something was nolle the
advantage of Mr. Squire. So they deter
mined that they would put him on tho
gridiron, and they did it most effectually
by striking his name from Iho hill consti
tuting the now aqueduct commission.
When Iho explosions look placo Lord
Garmoylo got out of town by tho earliest
express. Ho has been fairly hunted down
by interviewers, ami your first class New
York Interviewer is a most extraordinary
person. Ho wakes you up at two n clock
ill Ihn inornln',', makes you get out of bed,
he helps himself rom your cigar case, take!
n drink without Invitation from your priv
ato bottle, spits nil oyer Iho carpet, seals
himself down in your easy chair, cocks his
leet up on tho center table, and then coolly
asks you lo giye an account nf yoursell
from the hour of your birth with glimpses
of t ho history of your sisters, your cousins
nnd your aunts, and as an additional favor
requests that you will contra lict the libels
wl.i.h he had manufactured out of
wholo cloth in tho p ip;r ol tho previous
dav. Miss Dudley has had an excellent
epportunity'to sample- them, ond-I presume
the is not favorably impressed
Notwithstanding tho tremendous threats
of retribution by tho friends of O'Donovan
Itossa, nobody Is ofrutd, things go on as
usual. When Itidley ai.d Metiarry gel
their windows put in aud tho duiuage re
paired, caused by tho late dynamite, cxplns
ion, you will find tho stoles more crowded
than ever, end in u couplo ofwteks the af-
air will bo forgotten, except by McGarry
and tho polico.
It is not generally known that Miss
Fortescuo, tbo lucky coinpluinant In tho
Garmoylo case, is not unknown In New
York. She was engaged in small parts ul
tho Standard Theatre at fifteen dollars a
week. When nho comes back she will
command moro ducats than when she went
awoy. Tor a few weeks, at least, she will
be cheap at $500 a night.
It was n violent shock lo mlno host ol
the Filth Avenue Hotel when President
clei t Cleveland turned his back upon that
popular hostelry, and tucked his legs undo'
tho mahoguny of mine host of tho Victoria
It is true that tho Filth Avenue has been
rulher recognized as o Republican house,
that is to fay, that all Ihn Itepublican Presi
dents have stopped there, but then you
must recollect that wo havo had nothing
oiso but Itspublican Presidents since it was
buill, But it seemed lo havo a lien on the
K.teculiyo business, 1 suppose because it
was a tree blow out plenty to ent and
drink and nothing t pay. But Iho new
President starts off on a new truck, and
insists upon paying his bills, a most excel
lent habit, oven in Presidents, and while
he does it I hope his shadow will never
grow less. Ed. Stokes made sure that he
would take his tu'kcy and cranberry sauce
nt the National Democratic Headquarters
during tbe lute campaign, and it was said
that Stokes set up Iho champagne and
broiled quail for Dan Manning, in order lo
have him use his lulltience with the Presi
dent elect to havo him coma to tho Ilolf-
man. Dan cat tho quail and drank tha
champaguo and then forgot all about it, or
if ho did say anything Mr. Cleveland piid
no attention to It, ns he doubtless thought
the llolfiuan a li tilts olf color.- In all ol Us
nppointnieuts no hotel in New York sur
passes it.and for eating, nnd style whether
iu the quality nf the cookery or the mngn!
licence ot the charges it is up tohiuh water
mark with tho nobbiest hotels ill New York
or ony other lavored city. If you wlmc ut
a waiter it costs you a half a dollar, while
anything like n respectablo dinner far tiro
will knock the bottom olf a ten dollar bill.
It is a yery nobby hotel, .a first class place
for bachelois who hale plenty of money,
und are not afraid of being talked of. Thn
house with allot its elegant and expensive
appointments has a strong flavor of horso
and the prize ring. If there is a specially
good mill in some gentleman's back parlor,
or a prize .'!ui;;er match at ten dollars a
ticket, exclusively for the edification of
gentleman you can generally catch on to
It (In the polite ycrnaaular of New Yoik)
In Ed. Stokes' elegant barroom; I supposo
tho President took this into consideration,
and thought il woul 1 not be exactly tie
thing for the first gentleman In the Re
public to do, so he went to tbe Victoria
Perhaps O'Dsnovan Uoss.a thinks tho fait
of liis going lo the Victoria bus a suspicious
flavor. The dynamiters saw a terrible
Mirteut ol evil In tha opening of our big
bridge.ou the Queen's birthday. However,
he Is ut the Victoria and exceedingly com
fortable; and notwithstanding tho mishaps
to two Republican Presidents, no seutrlis
guard the door, nelhiug more formidable
than a very light breasted waiter. Tho
President goes In and out without fear of
pistol or dynamilo, though tbo city Is as
full of cranks as a hornet's nest is full of
hornets. There aro lots of palriolsdylng lo
serve their country, end only wailing for
Mr. Cleveland to give them a chance.
But while the town Is full of wicked
pililicians, wo are not altogether without
th moans of salvation and grace. An

Saturlav two spuce-lnoking men, named
Charles II. Smith nnd Harry T. Ririnnr.il.
wero arm tad in llcotown-for working the
"confussion dodge" on n number ol copie
on the East Penn Railroad. Friday thev
went lo Fleetwood, where Ihey entered tbe
the store of U-iffsnydcr A Merkln and pur
chased a pilr of gloves, offering a firiy
dollar bdl In piyment. By a quick move
ment Ihey extracted a twenty dollar bill
frsni the pile of change and pul a ten
dollar bill in Us p'ace will oat the c'rrk
noticing the trick They said they were
short ten dollars and the clerk, supposing
he had innde a mistake, handed over
another ten dollar b 11. Next Ihey yisited
tho cigar store of E. Weston and here ten
dollars weio secured. They then hired n
learn und were drive.n to Lyons Station and
entering the store of Lowis Miller bo eg tit n
pair of gloves and tendering n twenty
dollar bill In payment, but the clerk not
having change for that amount tiny left
and entered Birto's Hotel, where thev
spent money freely. One of thm laid
down the twenty dollar bill and when Ihe
bartender gaye him Ihe change he counted
it nnd it was found lo bo fivo doilars short.
A wrangle ensued, tbo bartender insisting
that ho laid ilun a ten dollar hill among
tho change and Smith claimed that be
only received a fivo dollar bill. The bar
lender subsequently handed over another
five dollar bill, believing ho hail made n
mistake. Tho sharpers next visited Toplon
and tried their gaino on Landlord Fisher,
but the hitler caught on to tbe racket anil
tho men left for Allcntown, where Ihey
were arrested An officer from Fleetwood
followed Ibom and arrested Ihem. Situr
day ultcrnoon they were taken to Fleetwo- d
and had a hearing before Squiro Dnmali,
who committed Ihem lo the Heading jail.
Boiler Explosion.
Aoout half-past cloven o'clock Friday
night a terrific explosion occurred in tl e
boiler house of the colliery of Liudcrmi.n,
Skeer .V Ca., at Humboldt, a lew miles
from Hnzleton. Tho flremin, William
Culp, was in tho Jiouso where there lire
eight largo boilers and hail just wulked
away from the one that exploded. The
first intimation ho had of anything of tbo
kind was tho terrible shock and tho noise
of tho explosion. The bailer house was
completely demolished und bricks, large
pieces of iron, umber und ether debris were
were thrown hundreds of leet away. So
great was the force of Iho explosion that
piece of tho boiler weighing a ton and
half was hurled a distance of two hundred
yards when it crashed through a dwelling
houso occupied by tho families ofjumcs
Carpenter aud William Leonard. Tho
whole lower part of the front of the house
was broken in and nil tho furniture in the
lower rooms was badly demolished. The
ocenpauts were steeping iu tho house, but
none of them wero injured. Thecscqeol
Culp, tbe fireman, frumseiious injury was
almost miraculous, lie was completely
covered by the debris, but was only slightly
injured. Patrick Boylr, the engineer, was
iu the engine, houso and was seriously
scalded, besides sustaining other injuries.
For u hundred yards ill every direction
tho debris was scattered about on the
ground. No ono seems tu know the causo
of tho explosion , but il is to be investigated.
Frcddlo Foulk, It) years old, tha slab,
picker boy tbat was crushed in the rolls at
breaker No. 0, Summit Hill, ou Saturday,
died about an hour alter beiug taken houir.
He was buried Monday afternoon at two
