1800. He was re-eleeted in 18C0. In 1802
he was defeated by bla old law partner,
Francis Kernan, but at the succeeding elee

chairman, He was also a member of the
committee of ways and means and of the

payments.
At Cincinnati In 1S70 Mr. Cenkllng ro re ro
eelved ninety-three votes for tbe Republi
can nomination for president. In the Chi
cago convention In 1880 be advocated tbe
nomination et a rant for a third term.
Tbe end of bis political lire came la 1831,
when he became beitlle te Garfield ever the
matter et appointments within New erk
state, and ou tbe 10th et May be resigned

appointment at tbe bands of the legislature.

night deeply engrossed In legal studies,
and often daylight found him pondering
ever his boekr. He was engaged In in
numerable cases et Importance, and his
endeavors te de justice te hl work resulted
in an overtaxed brain, and tbe running
down of bis e; stein. These were tbe
primal causes et his death.

expected te tbe politicians of the elty, aad
they were surprised that the efllee waa left

The last Incumbent of the offlee waa
Walter G. Evans, and ha died, while

Impression waa that the offlee was abolished

A romantle atery ia reported from An An
dereon county, 8. O. In June, 1805, Wil
liam Smith, a young Georgian, arrived in
the (neighborhood of Steny Greek en bla
way heme from tbe war. Here be met Mlaa
Mary Manly, the belle or the village, and
Immediately fell In love with bar. Hla
lore waa reciprocated, and after a ahert
courtship they were married. They lived
together very happily until the first of
August, when Smith left hla bride te pay a
brief visit te bis parents in Georgia. He
premised te return In ten days. Diva.
weeka and months passed by, but Smith
failed te return.
In the course of four or five yeara Mra.
Smith, still being unable te obtain any tid
ings of her miaaing husband, mourned him
as dead, and eventually married another
man, also named Smith. With the latter
aha lived happily fifteen yeara. when be
died.
Mrs. Smith was working In the garden
laat Saturday afternoon, when a stranger
walked no tne path, and approaching her,
addresaed her by her christian name. She
atered at him in amazement a few seconds
and then reoegnlud her long lest first hus
band. Time of course bad wrought cbanges In
the personal appearance of both. The man
who had no mysteriously disappeared In
tbe perfect vigor of early manhood new
bad hla hair sprinkled with gray, and the
handsome young bride et twenty-three
yeara age was new a sedate matron. The
meeting, however, waa an afleottenate one.
Smith made a satisfactory explanation of
hia prolonged absence, and aa tbe old love
bad net entirely died out, they determined
te take up the thread of their life Justwhere
it waa ae rudely snapped asunder, and they
are new enjoying their second honeymoon.
Beyond the face that Mr. Smith has been
in California ter the past twenty yeara, and
that he possesses a comfortable Income,
nothing can be learned as te tbe cause of
hla mysterious dlaappearanoe and con
tinued absence.

This action of the treasury department Is
the result of a full and free discussion et
the subjeat at tbe cabluet meeting ou Tues
day. It Is wall known that the president
and Secretary Falrehlld were dcaireus of
applying n portion or the rapidly-growing
surplus te the purobase of bends befere the
close of the present fiscal year, and that
they had beceme somewhat impatient at
the de! ay en the part et Congress In clearly
defining the powers or the aeoretary or tbe

The notion of the Heuse en Tuesday and

Secrntsry Falrehlld aald the amount of
bends te be purchase 1 dopended almost
entirely upon the -amount offered and tbe

festly Improper for him te say anything in

accept bend p. He added, bowever, with a
smile, that aa the Interest en the bends

tbe Interest en these which were purchased
last summer, it might be fair te assume
that tbey are less valunble and conse

he said, te auttcipate tbeae things, however,
especially as he would have mil knowl

noted for carrying n peculiar solid farm
raised peeple as its passengers, a people
who are the pride et our agricultural ooun eoun oeun

our condemnation. I mean the tramp, who
Is new (tunning himself en the south bank
of the railroad track, waiting for the sound
et Heme farmet'a dinner bell, or studying
dovllmentlti some shape or ethor.
A few days age two women and n small
boy were out In a field, about a tulle east
et Lltltz, gathering chicory ; they noticed
several tramps lying en the railroad bank,
but being only a few hundred yards from
a farm hotise paid no particular attention
te them, till they paw otie or the tramps
trying te gut between them nnd the farm
buildings beyond doubt with evil inten
tions. The women took the alarm, mak
ing for home en a deuble - quick, while
the boy raised a howl that alarmed tbe
trntnps, who leit in a hurry. Hew much
longer will our farmers persist in feeding
these drones, te the danger or their wives

Mr. bherwoed announced that Master

never taken lesaena In mnsle and does net
knew one nole from another ; and, consid
ering tbt se faets, his porfermanco waa re
gard ed as wonderful by tha experta present
It waa almply remarkable as coming from
a boy of his age naturally and without train,
ing. Ofoeurso It lacked a gieat deal when
heard with Sborweod'a playing. After
Master Strlckter'i petformanee Mr. Sher
wood in a short speech Bald that a musical
prodigy had been dlsaovered quite as
remarkable as any Imported article. He
only needed a musical education. Tbere
had been a great deal or absurd talk et the
great expense of sueh an education. A few
thousand dellara would glve a boy the beat
musieal training In the world. This boy
gsve as geed premise as any Jeaat Hof Hef
mann, and be was an American, a Penn
sylvantan born a tow miles from tbla elty.
(Great applause).
After the entertalnment Master Strlekler
asld that he had never been te New Yerk,
and bad heard very llltle geed musle at hla

Detrctlrra TMek the t'aruwei)it Oing and
Net f onn.en Murdered Jenn Sharpl.ia.
The absorbing question before tbe beard
of ptrdens Tuesday waa tbe argument for
rehearing tbe application for Johnaen'a
reprieve. C. O.car Btasley and Jehn B.
Robinson presented Jehnsen's new case.
Detective Jsmes J. Denasby, or Phllsdel
pbla ; ex-Chief el Police Williams, of Ches
ter, and Geergo H. Stuart, of Philadelphia,
were preaent. Mr. Beasley asked four
months' tlme te complete the investigation,
" and," said he, " if guilty parties are net
run down within that time I will fold my
arma and see the law executed, The de
fense waa confident that guilt could be fixed
upon whlte men, inoinberaef tbeFernwoed
gang.
Oetectlve Dnnagby said that tbe guilt of
Christopher Chepas, alias Duteb Gus,"
and another known as "Ulg Charley," both
of the Fsrnwred gang, and at present in
prison en ether charges, could be proved.
This evidence was found by sclue furnished
by Harry Heater, foruier cellmate of ene et
the Furu weed gang,aml knownat'Hcetty."
It was conveyed te Chief Weed, el Phila
delphia, by letter from Heater, who aald
'Uoetty" told blm et atrip made by hla
pain for the purpese of stealing, and
that ene of thelr weapons was a leaded
lead pipe, with which te knock people
Inte Insensibility. After a tour through
tbe coal regions, during which many peeple
had been knocked en the bead, they struck
Hharpleas tee hard. Mrs. Jewell, of Phila
delphia, with whom one of the gsng
bearded, states in an affidavit that the per
son alluded te lett tbe house en tbe same
day "Hcetty" a peaks nf tbe evening of the
murder and en his return spoke of hitting
a man tee bard. "Scott y" raid te the de
tective that Jehnsen was net guilty, but he
would net tell who waf, " Ulg Charley"
rotembleH tbe man Been at Sharpleaa' gate
ou the evening of tbe murder, and the
handkerchief he were around his neck
answers l he description et the neckwear
given by Mrs. Sharpies.
Tbe detective was abruptly asked by tbe
beard why tbi information was net pro pre
duced before. Unanswered, "Because we
de net wish te Interfere with brother effi
cers." The detective said the entire gang
was new In prison, and with little time the
real facta, and probably a confession, could
be obtained. In tbe evening tbe detective
was examined In private by the beard, and
It la probable that a rehearing will be
granted,

Berlin, April 18. The emperor passed
a telerasly geed night, although bla sleep
waa Interrupted somewhat by oeugnlng.
The fever has net yet disappeared. At
half-past eight the emperor arose and be
gan attending te the ordinary business or
tha day.
A bulletin Issued by the physlelans this
morning atatea that the emperor'acendltlon
la almost tbe tame as yesterday j although
tbe fever haa net yet lett blm, hla strength
under the circumstances Is satisfying.
The physicians held another consultation
this morning. Prince Bismarck visited
the emperor at 11 o'clock. The Crown
Prince William remained at Berlin ever
night, and this morning rnviewed tbe
troops at tbe Temelheferfeld. Prlnce
William waa greeted with great enthusiasm
aa he passed along Unter den blndtn,
where the troepa detlled.
1:23 r. m, The consultation held by the
physicians this morning showed the
emperer'a condition te be less isttafaotery
than It waa yesterday morning but better
than last evening' revetl.h symptoms in
dicated. Last evening tha emperer'a
temperature reae te 89 degreea eelslua. To
day It bas fallen te 38 4-5 degrees. During
the night Dr. Ueyell inserted a wide
canula.
8:10 p. m. The emperor appeared at a
window at tha Charlottenburg castle at
12:15 and was enthusiastically greeted by
the crowds that bad assembled. Prince
Blamarek's visit this morning lasted an
hour.
The physicians have again sounded the
xtperet's lunga and found that theyara
net affected. This strengthens the opinion
that an absceaa baa formed In the traebea.
There waa a great atlr In the streeta te-day
owing te the circulation of a report that tbe
emperor Intended te drive te Berlin from
Obarlettenburg. There was mueh dlsap.

Londen, April 18. In the oeurt of
Queen's bench te dsy the libel suit for 500
Which Mr. Petera bas brought against Mr.
Charles Bradlaugb, M. P., because tbe lat
ter atated that Petera had received money
from Lord Salisbury te promote the meet
ing of worklngmen In Trafalgar square,
came up for bearing. Lord Salisbury,
en being a worn, admitted that In
December, 1883, his socretary forwarded a
oheek ter a te Secretary Kelly et the
Deck Laborers' association. He denied
that be gave any checks te promote the
publle meetings which preceded the Trafal
gar square riots, and be also atated that ba
did net algn any cbecka in favor of Mr,
Peters, whleh were te be used In connection
wltb any Trafalgar rqaare meetings. Re
plying te a queatien from Mr. Bradlaugb,
Lord Sallabury aald that he had known
Mr. Petera ler the past eight years, and
that aa far aa he remembered, Vlessra,
Petera and Kelley had always come te him
together for money for tbe peer.
Mr. Petera depcaed that he had never
received any money from Lord Salisbury,
Mr. Bradlaugb waa unable te ahake tbe
testimony of Lord Sallabury. A oeUoo
beuae proprietor abowed that a check for
25 had been given him for tbe purpose of
providing dlnner for the unemployed, it
was further shown thst the obeck which
Lord Bsllsbury had given te Mr. Kelly
waa te provide breakfasts for the starving
peer of Londen.
Mr. Bradlaugh urged the qiostlen of
privilege, but Ibis was overruied by tbe
judge.
Secretary Kelly deposed that lie had dis
bursed tbe sum which Lord Salisbury bad
aent te blm In relieving the peer aud ter
charitable purposes entirely, and that he
bad net used any of It for political pur
poses. Mr. Bradlaugh then expressed re
gret that he had charged Lord Salisbury
with giving the check In question te pro
mote the meetings referred te, but urged
that aaether checks bad been se applied,
the statement was net libelous. The Jury
