BKKTOII or HIS CAREER.
Morrison Kemicb Waite was the seventh
ehlel Justice or the United States and was
born in Lymp. Conn., Nev. SO, 1810. He
graduated at Yale college in 1637, studied
law and began te practice in Mauuiee City,
Ohie. In 1819 he was a member el the legis
lature, Hud In 1830 he remeved te Tolode. Jie
declined repea'ed nominations te Congress
and also a arat en the surrema bench et the
atate. In 1S71-2 be was one of the counsel
of the United States befere ttie tribunal et
arbitration at Geneva. In 1873 he pre'lded
ever the centlttillniial convention of Onte.
Oa January 21, ISTlhe became chin! Justice
of the United States and since that time
has resided In Washington
Morrison K Watte cauie of a long ances
try of lawyers. The Weltes tettled in Con
necticut mere thau two centuries age, and
even then there were men anion e them
eminent in the legal profession. Hern In
the old town el Lymp, he was edu
cated at "Vale college, and wbeu Just
of age was graduated in the same
class with William M. Evarts, Ed
wards Pierrepont, Benjamin SUllman
and ether?, who have flnce been
distinguished in statesmanship, 8cler.e,
and literature. After studying law inula
father ' (lllee, be went westward, and alter
completing his ntudtes, began te j notice In
Maumes City, Ohie. He was a successful
lawyer that was all that could lie said of
bim for the next thirty years. He seemed
te bave no political ambition, nnd held but
one public cfllce belere be was made chief
Justice that of representative In the Ohie
legislature In 1810 te which be was nomi
nated against bin earnest pretest.
A re.ent aketch of the chief Justice notes
that he 'came te the supreme eencn in the
maturity of his powers he was fifty-seven
years et age aud se vigorous in his censtl
tutloe, phyMeally and mentally, that
although be has new passed bis seventieth
birthday, be Blums bh yet no Indications et
the approaching feebleness et agn. As he
walks along Pennsylvania avenue In
Washington, where be may be sesn almost
- any fine day en his way between his hem9
and the supreme court room at the capltel,
bla step Is as light and as springy as that of
a boy; and when he reads a caretnlly pro pre
pared opinion In a complicated case, It bears
evidence in every line, net only of the
meat patient research and close analysis,
but also of growing rather than et waning
pov.e a.

It was bis patnfnl duty te announce
that the honorable chief Jostlee el the

net the occasion for any extended netlse of
the sad event. He would merely an

WIthent another word the marshal an

BESOLUTIOHS OF SEXATB AMD HOUSB.
At the same time that this brief formal

body te order, and after the reading et the
Journal, handed te the clerk, who read te
the Senate the note signed by Justice
Miller, announcing the sudden death of
the chief Justice. Senater Edmunds Im

that In January 1874, fourteen years age,
the Hen. Morrlaen H. Waite assumed the
duties et chief Justice or the supreme court
of the United States. During the Inter
vening period be had administered the
duties of that high tribunal In a manner
which had made a deep Impression upon
tbejurlsprudenceet the United States and
et the whole world He bad done bis duty
thoroughly and writ, through tlmes of
trial and trouble. His eareer was ended
for this lire. Daring that period et four
teen years there had been no stain or re
preach ; nor fault or falling ; no error, no
shortcoming In his personal or official life.
He had proved himself an upright and an
able Judge,even minded and learned. His
career bad been crowned with great honor
te himself and bad been of great service te
his oeuntry. Senater E Jmunds said that he
would move the appointment el a commit
tee of five senators te represent that body
at the funeral, and If that motion was
adopted, be would meve that the Senate as
a further mark of respect, stand adjourned
until Monday next
Bjth resolutions were adopted, and the
Senate Immediately adjourned.
Nearly all the members of the Senata
were in their places. The news had
reaebed most of thorn only a short time be
fore the hour of convening, and they hsd
battened te the chamber te lartlclpate in
whatever mark of respect was te be shown.
Every face gave evidence of grief, and the
brief proceedings were carried through
wltb a solemnity betokening a prevailing
sadness rarely Boen In the Senate chamber.
In the Heuae, after the reading et the
Journal, the announcement, communicated
by Justice Vllllar, was real from the desk,
and Representative Tayler, of Ohie, sup
plemented It by a brief reference te the able
and honorable career of the late chief Jut Jut

and sorrow, and for the appointment et a

An oyster famine, which may last for a
couple of vteek,lB new threatened, and the
bivalves are becoming very ecares. Tbe
dealers are complaining, but thore has been
no lncrease in prices or the luscious fish as
yet. Tbe reason for the acarelty la that
during the terrible bllzzird of last week the
Chosapeake bay aud rivers emptying Inte
it, In which e j stern are caught, was In a
rough condition. Large numbers or beats
that were engaged In tithing for oysters
v, ere blown te pieces, or ethei wise damiged
These beats are new being repaired,
Ever since the blizzard the weather has
been rough and there baa been little or no
fishing. The supply of oysters lu the
handaef dealers Is gradually becoming ex
hausted, and very few cau ba obtained.
People living In an Inland city like this
knew llttle et the difficulties and daugers
onceuutered by the oyster fishers, and if
they did they would probably be satisfied
te eat ether fish for a low weeks.

The Commonwealth Asks for Arrears et Tax
en ift K.rulas Amuanilaar 308,000,
A heariug was held before Auditor Nor Ner
rlf, In Harrlsburg, In the matter of the
commonwealth for crreara of tax en net
earnings due by the Penn Mutual Life In
surance company, amounting, with pen
alties, te about t-!03,000. Thb lnsoracce
company paid taxes en Its net earnings
from the paasage of the act Imposing the
tax In 1864 up te and Inclusive or tbe year
1872, when It ceased paying such tax, and
the amount ReuKbt te be recovered is for
taxes and penalties for the non payment et
the same trem that date te the present time.
It Is understood that the defense will rest
upon the contention that the tax upon gross
premiums paid by the company Is virtually
a tax upon gross receipts, and, aa the com
panies paying the latter tax are exempted
lremtbetax upon net earnings by the act
of 1873, that the company la net liable te
a tax upon nri earnings.
It will also be contended that, as the pro
fits of the company are divided among the
policy holders at the end or each year, the
company has In fact no net earnings upon
wblcb the tax could be assessed.

Geld tba Ilebbsis Did Net Qr.
A burglary and robbery was oemmltted
last night at the residence et Geerge Ful
mar, Ne. 333 North Mulberry street, la
which the berglara succeeded la getting
away with 1100, and Mr. Wghtner Fnlmer,
a aen el Geerge Palmer, narrowly escaped
being murdered.
The circumstances attending the affair
were as fellows : Mr. Geerge Fulmer bsa
been In the habit of spending many of his
evenings at the groesry store of his neigh
bor, 8. W. Tayler, 339 North Mnlberry
street He did se last evening, locking the
back deer and placing the key In a plaee
where bis son could get It In case he re
turned home before bla lather. Llghtner
returned home, while bis father was still at
the store. He unlocked the back deer and
entered the house. Tne light was tamed
down, but In the darkness he saw two men
standing before blm one of them being a
large and the ether a small man. Belore be
had time te take in the situation he was
struck en the head and face with a blackjack
and knocked down. He was badly stunned,
but heard the burglars departing through
the back yard. Mr. Fulmer called loudly
for help, and some et the neighbors hurried
te his assistance. He was found te be suf
fering from three blackjack wounds,two en
the back of his head aud one en the lore
bead. An examination of Ibe premises showed
that the burg I an bad gained access te the
house by forelng open a back window shut
ter. They had ransacked the house from
top te bottom In aeareh of money, and bad
succeeded In finding Mr.Fntmer's little pile,
whleh oenslstod of 1100 In notes and f 100 In
geld. They were evidently In the act of
dividing the boodle, when they were Inter
rupted by I.ightner Fulmer'a return, and
in the scufile whleh ensued they dropped
the geld, whleh was In (20 pieces loosely
wrspped In a bag. In their hurry te get
away In the darkness they did net recover
them. The geld was leund scattered en the
fleer el the room In whleh Mr. Llghtner
was knocked down.
The burglars were evidently well ac
quainted with the premises and with the
fact that Mr. Fulmer kept meney In the
beuse. Tbls Is proved by the thoroughness
with whleh they ransacked It Llghtner
Fulmer says he cannot Identify the bur
glars further than te say that one of the
men was small and ether large. Dr. Miles
tu Davis was sent for and dressed Mr, Ful
mer's wounds, which consist of an Indeed
wound en the forehead and two contused
wounds en the back of the head.
Mr. Fulmer, who Is a laboring man, and
has been living with his son, since the
death of his wire, bad secreted bis money
in a little closet under a stairway leading
1 em the front room en the first fleer te the
second story. Te gel into the pert of the
o'.eset where the money wis secreted the
burglar had te crawl into a narrow passage
the full length of his body.
Besides the money stolen tbe tbleves poi
a pair of geld cull" buttons and a scarfpin.
They had also packed up two baskets full
of bed clothes, sheetings and underclothes
which they failed te get away with.
Llghtner Fulmer says that In his ecu Die
with the burglars a little table en which
was a gasollne lamp was upset, and the
lamp was put nut but did net explode. He
thinks the burglars bad the geld en this
table at the time and when it was over
turned, they did net have an opportunity
or gathering It up.
The police bave been notified or the
affair, but as yet they have no clue te the
robbers.

TflE MAIN DID NOT COMB err.
Laarastar snrt Marietta Nperts Fall tn Agree
eutheRlad of metis fir a Cerk Fight.
Seme time age a cocking main was ar
ranged between chicken fanciers of this city
and these of Marietta. It was te have taken
place en Wednesday el last week, but
owing te the big blltztrd It was postponed
until Thnrsday. Chleken disputes In this
section are usually settle! In Yerk county,
and the land et buekwheat was-sgaln
agreed upon for the battle ground.
The plaee selected was net far trem tbe
Susquehanna river. Karly Thursday
morning a large number of cockers and
ether sports left Lancaster, and afteragreat
deal of trouble reached tbe fighting
grenndr. Tbe chickens were seen weighed
and eight pairs were matched. Every
thing waa reai'y ter the main
when a new and very serious
trouble arose. The Matletta people
Insisted upon fighting with what la called
drop socket" steels ler whleh the fighters
el that town seem te hsve a great fond
ness. If there la anything that Laneister
sports de net like, It Is this kind et "galf ,"
and they would net agree te fight against
them. This led te considerable wrangling.
The Marietta men used their persuasive
powers te hsve the main fought en their
condltlens.but It wsiof.ne avail, and It waa
declared off. The Lancastrians finally did
agree te give tbe Marietta people a light
Tbla was followed by three ethers, but
there was no main, Tbe result of the fight
ing was that Lancaster and Marietta each
wen two battles. The best chicken that the
folks trem the long borough had with them
waa knoekod silly by a Lanoatter cock. On
this fight there was ever (200, and our boys
secured something for their trouble. The
fighting waa oenoluded amid a great deal
el klckleg, and the Lanoaater people
turned their faces hemeward very much
disgusted with the result et the day.
While the snorts were etiRsited llzhtlnr
i the chickens, Old Boreas waa getting his
work In en the Susquehanna, which the
party had crossed In the morning te reach
the fighting ground. When It waa time te
stsrt borne the water waa found te be very
high and reugb. Seme of Ibe ptrtles were
brave enough te take the beat, but ethers
oenoluded te walk te Wrlghtavlllr.
It was a long and weary tramp, and while
aerae readied Columbia In tlme tot the
Otte train, ethers were left behind,
and did net reaeh Lancaster until tbla
morning. Te day all the pedestrians are
atlfy, sere and disgusted. The Lanoaater
boys oemplaln that they wero badly treated
all around yeslerdsy. Tbe boalmen beat
some of tbem In their cbarge for crossing
the rlver, by making thorn pay for a return
tlcket In tbe morning whleh they refused
te take In the afternoon, The principal
artlcle et feed at the fighting ground was
soup, whleh la said te have been made of
very queer-material. Fifty cents a dlh
was charged for this, and sour kreut was
as high as lebiter salad In Lancaster.
