TUE.IOKi; OF 'IHJ. "BROOKLYN KID."
Sending Heme an Account of IHs Own
Death at 1 he Hands of btage-KebberS.
A few days age there appeared a copy
of a letter forwarded te the Brooklyn
Eagle narrating the murder en the btaked
Plains of Texas of Ed. White, a boy
known asthe " Brooklyn kid." His parents
arc new living in Brooklyn. Siuce the pub
lication of that letter the original has
been carefully compared with ether effu
sions which arc undoubtedly in the same
handwriting, aud it is agreed by White's
brothers, seme of his old companions and
by Will Hewell, who traveled with White,
that the communication was written by
the "Brooklyn kid" himself, Superin
tendent Campbell, of the Brooklyn police,
has sent a communication te the sheriff of
the place asking for all information in the
matter. The boy was well known in the
neighborhood of his home and attended
the public school in his district.
An Attack en Tne Women Quickly Avenged
A young man named Lee, of West Mid
dlesex. Buticr county, started out en a
hunting expedition. Late in the after
noon, while walking through the weeds a
few miles from home, he met two young
lady acquaintances, who also lived iu
West Middlesex. Without any proveca
tien whatever, Le raised his gun and
fired two shots, wounding both women,
but neither of them seriously. He then
ran away, and the young women managed
after much pain and difficulty te reach
their homes, where they informed their
friends of the sheeting. A brother of ene
of them, named Allisen, together with
three ether men. started iu pursuit of Lee
and came upon him iu the weeds. He
made a desperate resistance, and when he
found that his capture was inevitable be
committed suicide by sheeting himself in
the head. All the parties are well con
nected, aud the affair has created the most
intense excitement. L03 was twenty-one
years of age and has always borne a geed
reputation. His motive for the sheeting
is unexplained.
The Deficiency in the Heading Pestiifflce.
Inspector B. N. Sharretts, who discev-
cred that Gee. "W. Grant, Reading's post
master, was short in his accounts te the
amount of $3,000, called a meeting of
Grant's bondsmen, Samuel S. Kutz, J. W.
Levau and Abraham B. Bechtel, and noti
fied them as te hew matters steed. They
were greatly surprised and informed the
inspector that they would make geed the
amount. They were then notified that
thei could name a man te take charge of
the office or supervise its management
until another appointment be made. They
concluded te de the latter. Grant has ten
deied his resignation, te take effect en the
first of the coming month. Twe of the
suieties, Bechtel aud Kutz, were willing
ie let Grant stay in charge of the oflice
until his successor had been named, but
Levan would net agree te this. Grant has
confessed judgment in $3,000 te his bonds
men which was entered in court. A num
ber of candidates are already iu the field,
among them being Geerge K. Whitncr,
who is pushed by J. Heward Jacobs and
the united delegation te the next Republi
can state convention. A delegation in
Whitner's interest will leave for Wasbiug Wasbiug
iugten shortly te piess his claims. Sena Sena
eor Den Cameren is said te approve Whit
tier's candidacy. Efferts have been made
for some months te sccuse the lemeval of
Grant.
la Smallpox Spread by Carriages -.'
feme excitement has been caused iu
Philadelphia by the publication of a letter
addressed te the beard of health by D. H.
Schuyler, at: undertaker, who writes that
smallpox is being spread ever the city by
means of carriages. He says that it is
largely the custom te have the bodies of
childicn, who die of smallpox or ether
contagious diseases, carried te the ceme
tery in a carriage, instead of a hearse, as a
carriage costs less. Very often, after
a caniage letuins te the stable after such
a funeral, it is immediately sent te take a
family shopping or te the theatre or else
where. Iuquiry ameug tha undertakers
of the city conebcuates Schuyler's state
ments. The undertakers say theie is no
doubt but that many cases of smallpox
found among well-to-de families and
for which no cause has been assigned
arese iu this way. This practice is said te
prevail mere or less in every large ciry,aud
one undertaker-said that in New Yerk lie
knew it prevailed, because he had been in
business theie at one time. Schuyler's
reason for writing the letter is, he says,
that " he could net bear te see death
spread se certainly any longer." He ad
mits having been guilty of the practice
himself. "
Kailreatl Accidents.
Flagman Patrick M. Griffin, of the New
Yeik Central & iluiheu River raihead,
found a piece of weed diivcn between the
rails at the Rivcrdalc avenue crossing,
near the iron bridge, se as te threw the
train off the track. Twe trains had passed
ever, wheu the weed was found. The
weed being pait of au old tic the flange of
the wheel cut into and passed ever safely.
The police aie of tin impicssien that the
obstruction was placed en the track by
seme labeicrs living along the railroad
who helped te clear away the wreck of the
Albany express at Spay ten Duy vil. They
worked all night and wcie net paid for
their services.
A collision ecciuicd en Thuisday night
en the Lake Shoie & Michigan Senthern
raihead, near Sturgis," Mich, in which two
freight trains, including fifteen cars ami
two engines, were completely wrecked.
The accident was caused by tlie cat elcss
ness of a telegraph opciater. The le.ss is
heavy.
The fast Height en the New Jersey
Central read struck ami killed James
Tiusmau, living at Milferd, N. J. He was

Sunday with his family, and when killed
he was walking te take the train for Mil

The Ant! Jewish Agitation.
.The pci sceutien of the Jews it; Russia
continues te awaken the deepest sympathy
among all classes in Londen and te pro
voke a strong feeling against Russia.
Mr. Gladstone's lcfusal te remonstrate
with the Russian government is strongly
condemned. When the bastard aud
mengicl population of Bulgaria was badly
treated the premier made all Europe ring
with denunciations of the utirpcakable
Turk, buthp was netiu power then. The
Rethschilds and ether pewciful Jewish
families :nc raising a fund for the etnigia etnigia
tien of the Russian Jews te the United
States, but they caunet de much without
active aid from the government, ami this
Mr. Gladstone declines te give them. The
Russian authorities appear te be encour
aging the war upon the Jews, probably
because Jew-baiting is heading off Nihil
ism. Dispatches lelating te the brutali
ties perpetrated upon the unhappy people
aie suppressed by the military ccuserhip,
but the talcs told by fugitives show that
they aie being subjected t the vilest
tieatment and teiturc. The Czar, who is
said te be peisenally well disposed te the
Jews, is powerless. All his time is de
voted te providing for hi3 own safety, and
his chief officers prefer that the peasants
should murder Jews rather than dig
dynamite miues. It is stated en geed
authority that German residents in Russia
aie also being maltreated, aud that when
the Jews are disposed of the peasants
will made short work of liistnarek's co
patriots. The Czar and the Emperor
William are continually exchanging love
messages, but their subjects cerdi illy de
test each ether.
A meeting of citizaes of New Yerk,
without distinction efciced, will be held
en Wednesday evening at Chickcring hall,
for the purpose of expressing their sym
pathy with the persecuted Ilebi.jws in the
Russian empire.
A Practical VlewefOsmr.
Washington Republic.
I notice that a great many journals are
denouncing Mr. Wilde as a "feel" and an
"ass." because he wears long hair and
knee-breeches and is se exceedingly " ass
thetic," but they are altogether wieng.
He is neither a feel nor an ass, but a very
astute young gentleman, who, as peer
Leuis ..Napeleon said, comprehends his ci a.
Whoever happens te encounter Mr. Wilde
some ten or twelve yeais hence wil prob
ably find him living comfortably
en the proceeds of his "felly,"
and will sec a lather pertly gen
tleman, dressed in a plain business suit,
wearing his hair close cropped, taking a
keen interest in the stock market, but lit
tle or none in Beauty with a large B, and
manifesting a particular aveisien te lilies
and sunflowers. " The secret of life,"
said Mr. Wilde at the close of his lecture
in New Yerk, " the secret of life is in
art," but he didn't mean a word of it.
Cunning Mr. Wilde ! The secret of life is
net in art. The secret of life new-a days
is in humbug, and you knew it.
The Highest Railroad llridge.
The Kinzua creek flews at the bottom
of a ravme between Bradford and Alten,
Pa., ever 300 feet deep and 2,230 feet
wide. This chasm has for years prevent
ed a railroad connection between that re
gion and Pittsburgh. The Erie railway
is new spanning the ravine with a bridge,
te make the long desired connection by
extending its Bradford branch te Johns Jehns
burg, Pa. The bridge will be the highest
railroad bridge iu the world 303 feet.
This is GO feet higher than Niagara's sus
pension bridge, 170 feet higher than the
great bridge across the Ohie at Cincinnati,
189 feet above High Bridge, New Yerk ;
170 lect higher than the East River bridge,
and 45 feet higher than Portage railroad
bridge ever the Genesee river. The Kinzua
scructure will consume 40,000,000 pounds
of iron. It will require 30,000 yards of
masonry. The cost will be ever $500,000.
The Bradford branch will connect with
the low grade division of the Allegheny
Valley railroad, and will make a short
through route between New Yerk and
Pittsburgh.
An Old Bell.
The bell hauging in the belfry at the
Episcopal church in Ellicottville, N. Y.,
is ene of the eldest iu America. It was
cast in Moscow, Russia, iu 1703, and was
ene of a chime of bells in a cathedral in
that city. The cathedral was buined by
Napeleon in 1811. Several years after
ward the bell was sold in a let of old
metal which became ballast for a vessel
sailing te New Yerk without cargo. An
drew Moncelev of Trey discovered it in a
scrap pile in New Yerk years afterward.
He bought it aud for a long time it was
kept by him at his bell foundry in Trey as
a cuiiesity. In 1831 a resident at Ellicott
ville went te Trey te buy a bell for the
Episcopal church which had just been
completed. He induced the feundrymau
te sell him the old Russian bell. It has
been in use here ever since.

In illustration of the lack of proper dignity
in American politics, air. JMathcws caus
tically rcceuuted his experience some years
age as a member of a committee which
went te Washington te present the then
president's wife with a portrait of her hus
band. The president was found standing,
with an enormous cigar in his mouth,
between two disreputable politicians ene
from West Virginia and the ether from
Kentucky and while the committee pre
sented the address and the portrait, the
picsidcnt puffed away at his cigar, his
hands meanwhile being plunged deep in
his pockets. At the conclusion of the pre
sentation the cemmittee was allowed te
withdraw without a word of thanks. Frem
this Mr. Mathews was led te believe that
geed manners wero net considered an cs
sential characteristic in a public officer.
