The deer between the kitchen and the dining room was unlocked and the thief was able te make his way all ever the house. He went up stairs and entered the room of Mr. Cestello's son Hugh, who was steeping by himself. The young man was awakened by a noise as though some one was crawl ing around en the fleer. He was fright ened and did net knew what it was, but fi nally concluded It was his brother William, who he supposed had the nightmare. Hugh then heard the party leaving the room.

Themselves Along tlie Creck en Suiiituy. The weather was splendid yesterday nnd many people took advantage of It te spend the day In the country, which since the recent heavy rain falls leeks beautiful. The Mtonncicher held their regular May walk yesterday morning, and ulteut one hundred members left the hall at fi'o'deck headed by the Iroquois band. They marched nut te the creek and halted at the old city water werks,where the band played a numlier of selections. A tine lunch was provided nnd the greater part of the fore noon was very pleasantly spout. The Mienncreher were net the only peo ple who enjoyed themselves, but hundieds of ethers had a geed time along the Cones Cenes toga. The Kast End street ear line was kept busy all day and they hauled great crowds of people te and from the ends rf their route. One of the favei ite resorts was at Potts', at Wltmer's bridge. The beauti ful little grove has been greatly improved this ssasen by Mr. FetU, who has added a strip of land te it at the north end, in which he bus planted many young maple trees. The seats in the grove were in demand during the afternoon and many poi'seus enjoyett themselves rolling around en the grass. Mr. I'etts has twenty beats of, his own, but there was none tee many In the afternoon, when all were in use. At pres ent there are nlue beat houses In the little grove, nnd there are from twenty te twenty five private beats 111 Ilium. Many of these were In use yesterday and last e cuing as they will be every evening when the warm Weather opens. Thn most disagreeable part of a trip te the creek by Kast King lit refit at present Is thp terribly thick dust which covers persons whether they walk or ride In the cars.

BUKAKINQ TIIK tlltOL'.VIl. Why the Church llell Rang lu the Fairly Morning. The ringing of the Presbyterian church bell this morning at 7 o'clock was an un usual sound In this city, and caused many te oak, What Is the matter T" It was In response te a notice riven from the pulpit yesterday by the pastor, Rer. Jes. Y. Mitchell, D.D., who requcsted the congregation te assemble at that hour en the lofradjelnlhg the church, where the chapel Is te be built, for the purpose or formally 'breaking the ground." At that hour several hundred ieople were gath ered. The services were conducted bv the pastor, assisted by Rev. Thes. Thompson, of the Memerial Presbyterian church. The congregation, led by the choir, sang the hymn, "I Love Thy Kingdom lxrd." Mr. Thompson read the 21th Psalm, and the dedicatory prayer was offered by the pas tor. After singing "Pralse Ged Frem Whom all blessings Flew," the jmster, Rev. Jas. Y. Mitchell, I). I)., with pickaxe in hand, quoted from the 127 Psalm, the words "Kxcept the Ixml build the house they labor lu vain that build it," nnd, in the name of the Triune Ued, broke the ground with the pickaxe. Then taking a shovel he cast the earth Inte a cait, nnd with the benediction, pronounced the ground dedicated. Immediatetv after the members of the congregation, mala nnd female, began digging and worked nobly until they had leaded the first c.irt, nnd sent It en Its way. The scrvtce w as in every way apprepriate and Impressive, and the interest shown by the people nt the begin ning, Is a sure prophecy of a successful carrying forward of the work or building a chapel te completion. 1.1st or Unclaimed Letters.

Amuslnc Incidents eftha Iaist Per- formance lu this City. Magician Keller, at his concluding jHir jHir fermance in Fulton bjeru house en Satur day night, thoroughly pleased an audience of moderate site, and mystified n com cem com uilttee of extraordinary intelligence. Dr. Ii V. Gerhnrt, Henry Martin, II. Frank Ilrcuemiin, W. Parke Cumnilngs, Geerge Hey and Rebert Clark,, of the Intki.M (iKui'Klt, took scats upon the stage as a detective committee. Mr. Ketlnr did many wenderAil things, nnd Mrs. Martha K. St ecu, the mind reader, read llgures and cards and informed various remnrknble feats, but found Mr. Clark un affected by the luttueuee. A suggestion from Mr.W.Hei'iltsh that n member of the committee should held the cards was met by the request that he should come upon the stage and held them. He did se and the mind reader told him that a caul he had llxed his mind upon was the three, or spades. Mr. llelnltsli turned up the card he was thinking ef mid found it te boas prophesied. Theu the magician showed that the entire pack was made up of threes or spades, having been changed by slclght-ef-hand. 9 Mr. Chirk was shul up lu the spitltunllst cabinet nleng with Mr. Kellnr, who wns appamntly lashed llrnily te a chair. The racket Inside made the audience anxious for his safety, and he dually emerged weal ing his coat inside out nnd with a broken tambourine nreund his neck, wille Kellnr sat lu his chair apparently lashed as thinly as ever. Mr. Clark says that ns seen ns the deer wns closed Kellnr sllpicd his hands from the knots with ense, and began a feat fill banging of tilings nnd ting ing or bells, nt ' the sumo time remarking, "new we are in here te make this Interesting; take oily our coat nnd help along the fun." Mr. Chirk kindly helped along the fun. There being no top te the cabinet It was very light inside. In a brief speech Mr. Kellnr declined that in his long cxMrionce with mediums and magicians of nil seits he had net met with nothing that he did net believe could be accounted for by natural means, nnd he had no reason whatever te bcllove In spirit ualism. He has exposed many fraudulent mediums and his testimony before the Seybert commission Is widely known. Uu Saturday night he explained some very mysterious tricks, among ethers the apparent turning of wnter Inte wlne, which wns accomplished by chemical action. TIIK FltnXCII CKXTKXNIAL. Informally Opened by n Pistol Shet nt President Cnrnet. On Sunday at neon President Cnnnt left the Klysoe Pnhice In a four hoi se car riage te drive te Versailles whero he was te be reisMved by the ministers, senators and deputies and tnke part In the coro cero core monles commemorating the 100th anniver sary of the opening of the states general. In Pails a great crowd surrounded the Klysoe and when a chorus of bugles announced thn departure of the presi dent and suite, there was great en thusiasm. The top of the picsldent's carriage had been raised because of thicat euiiig weather. Suddenly a man wearing a frock coat, a long brown Ward, nnd an excited though gentlemanly demeanor, ad vanced nnd raising n revolver fired elnt blank ut the president. A isillceiiiiiu struck up his arm before he could tire again nnd the crowd rushed upon the would be assas sin with cries of "Te the river 1" "Drewn him!" "Leng llve Curnet I" The pollce rescued him with great dlftlctilty and he had been se roughly handled that It was a long tlme beYore he could reply te iiuostiens. He dually declared that he had net iutcndisl te kill the presi dent, but only wished te call attention te the Injustice of the minister of marine, who had sent him te military prison. He had served In u .ouave iMglinent. Three of the chambers of his revolver contained blank cartridges and three niore were empty, while there is no doubt that the exploded shell in the seventh chamber wus also u blank as there wus no bullet mark about the carriage. President Caruet leek the mutter coolly and continued his drive te Versailles, which was one continuous triumph through shouting ciewtls (and past houses decked with beautiful llerul devices. At Versailles he was formally received with tliiindeiing cannon and the cheers of uiuiiy thousand troops massed en both sides of the splendid avenue with their bayonet tepiss.1 lilies glittering lu the sun. The ceremonies wcie brilliant mid impres sive, being conducted in the famous " Hall of Mirrors." After lunching lu the " Hall of Matties" the rostensl fountains In the park were unveiled and the presidential jKirly returned te Paris.

TIIK TIlKASllltr IHNIl, Hew the State Officials Have tlrcu Mis using the People's Meney. The following Is published In the Phila delphia JYwim . Mkadvim.k, Pa., May 4, 1880. 7b Mm Kterllency Jnmct A. ilrmvr, Oortrner. When charges were made against the sinking fund commissioners you hastened te their defense, and by your letter (called an Interview) tethe public made their cause yenr own by admitting that they had con suited you and that with youreensont they had sold $1,000,000 United States bends be longing te the sinking fund. And further, thntyeu and they had done this en the advice of distinguished bankers. Te still further relieve you from the charges of misfeasance, If net malfeasance, In elllce, you Imd Mr. Hall rend in the llouse of Hopresontntlvot (see pages !WS and 1HSI Ieg. lslatlve Recerd) letters from the fiscal agent of the style and Drexcl A- Ce. Mr. Hall rcferred te them ns the "prominent llnanclers of the state and of the country as well." These two letters, together with your interview- (letter) have been sent broadcast ever the state, pi luted In ilmest every Republican pusr as your answer In the case of the people or the commonwealth against their stnte elll- ccrs. In these two letters thn law nnd K)lley under which von acted Is clearly defined and set forth. Let us cepv first from the letter of the fiscal agent: "The. laws governing the commissioners require theiii te purchase thn leans ofthe common wealth whenever It Is practicable nnd only te Invest In United StHtes bends whim It fs Impossible te obtain the state leansat reas onable prices; and the commissioners have autiieruy te sell UnlKsl .-states leans when ever the state leans can be purchased nt n price deemed for the lest Interests of the commonwealth. The commissioners or the sinking fund are required also te prefer the leans next maturing, nnd thev hae thero there thero ferodlrocled their efforts te obtain the llve liercents." Drexel Ce.sav, among etlinr things : " Resides we consider It the very best policy Tet a state ns Well ns an Individual te use Its own funds In liquida tion or Its own debt, and It must be obvious that purchasing United States bends sub ject te the iluctnntlonser the market Is a speculative oKratien which should net be entered into by the state. It certainly would net, we think, be geed Nllcy for the commonwealth te ndvnnce the price which the slnkimr fund commissioner Imvn established for the pttrchase of the llve per cent, bends of the state." New, governor, no honest client will permit a dishonest or ignorant attorney te set up for him a raise, fraudii'ent or dishouest defonse. This I charge you have dene bv circulating the two above In part quoted 'lettcrs. And lu proving this charge, excuse me for being se plain that nil who rend limy understand. First. I charire that the law Is mlsstntisl. both in word und inference. Second, J charge Hint you were advised te violate the second lotter of the constitution, also the letter mid spirit of the law; and third, I charge that you and your subservient com cem com missienors have violated both the letter and spirit of the constitution of veur state and the net of assembly. Fer the first charge what Is the lawT First, the last clause of section 12 or aillele 1) of the constitution says ; " And the monevs or the sinking fund shall never lie Invested lu or leaned upon the socurltvef anything uxcept the bends of the United States or of this state." Second the act June fl,l&s;i, pamphlet laws, pnge7il,elcnrly directs hew this Investment, net may, but shall ba made, as follews: First, by the purchase Second, if state bends cannot be purchased " for the best Interests of the common wealth, It shall be the duty ofthe said com missioners te ntithorlzethoiiuniinso bv the tlscnl agent ofthe kittle or the bends e'f the ei suae nouns ai me men marKei rates," united HtatcH at the then market rates," Third, when stnte bends ure imrchnscd they ure nt nucecancclltsl, but when United Slates bends tire purchased two contingen cies may happen, elther of which will Justify their sale: first, "whenever the money shall be leqitlred for the ex tinguishment or the publle debt," and sts.-eud, " whenever the leans or the commonwealth can he bought ut such prices ns they may deem for the best Interests of the commonwealth." New, governor, this Is the law, as you nnd your commissioners well knew, and when the tlscnl agent says you "uie joqtilred te piefer leans next maturing. " veil knew he misstated the law. The words " next maturing" up-ar in section :t or the act or 137(1, pamphlet laws, pages 75 nnd 75. This makes clear the first charge. New for the second. Yeu say in your letter tluit you acted en the advice of " distinguished bunk ers, " and the tlscul ngeut says you bought live per cent, leuns becaiise he doclares It te be thn law. unit Drexol A Ce., sav " It must be obvious that purchasing United States bends, subject te the fluctuations or the market, Is a speculative operation which should net be entered Inte by the state." They, therefore, se udvlscd you, although the constitution says you etui buly invest In state or United States bends nnd the act of June IS, 1H.H.I. says you must iu et In either stnte or United States bends. This advice of Drexel ,t Ce., taken in con nection w lth the fact that they say you must net )ay mero for state bends than lh price already iigreed iirii (which price thu sjo sje sjo ple have n right te iiromnie Is se low no bends can be purchased) would make it "geed policy ler the commonwealth" te refuse te Invest ene dollar lu either statu or United States bends unless the sumo can be lmichascd at prices llxcd by yeursehijs, while) the law says you must Imest lu either state or United Stales bends " at the then market rates." New rer the third charge. First, with 8l,IM),lil cash lu the sinking fund, you refined te Invest it in statu or Culled States bends as commanded by the act of 1KH.'1, and second, when Iho law only provided two contingencies under which you could sell United States Ixnuls you sold $l,nm,0oe when neither existed. It could net have been the first. that the meiiev was "icquired for thu extinguishment of the nubile debt," for only ?'J7o,0eo fell due during the year. Ner dure you sa it was bivattse "leans of Iho commonwealth can be bought nt such prices," for you only purchased during the entire year, ending Net ember :J0, lBSM, JSHiOOer state bends, und had you sold no United States bends November !'. IS", veu would have had cash lu sinking find iLOlKI.UI.'i.T.I, or 21S,tu;.7;i mom than would have L-en reqiilrisl te meet the entire sinking fund expuni os for the year ending November 30, ls.stl. And still further '"" Mhl these United (States bends when they were ad vancing in price 1-10 of 1 percent, perdav. And they would new be worth 5 per cent, mere than when llrst sold. Hut te further show Iho reckless way lu which these bends were sold; Veu piled up the cash In the sinking fund by .March !tl, 18S.S, te ii,"'Si,TM.:i7. Thus it Is clear you and your commissioners luvu vielutisl the constitu tion nnd laws of jour state by leaning tills large amount of money te the "stub treas ury ring banks" under the guise of a lie isxlt; that you hae refused te invest it In state or United States Ismils, ns commanded by the act or ISs.'), hiding, according te the advice given you by Iho fiscal ngent of the state und Drexel A Ce., behind the proviso of the third section of thu act of lrt7u, which saj-s; "Provided such pur chase can be made for the host Interests of thn commonwealth," knowing well that that hivtien wus reicalnd by thu net of lhrtlt; und further that It was because of that sec tion lu the act of lh0 that culled furthoiias furtheiias furthoiias sageorthoiici or 1H.S.-I. What conclusions can the tssiple draw from thesw facts except iii.il tii4 mini iiiti iniiiiin in iiisirtiujie llieir jiris'e law ecus among lavorei uuiiksT The presumes a reasonable creature Knows ami intends the actual results that fellow his acts. Applying this rule te you and thn commissioners of the sinking fund, you mid they should have been prosecuted for this flagrant violation of tlie law, or seir-ress-t heiild cenieI veu te resign because or lnconiieteney. Tills, governor, Is the case of the trepin of tlie great commonwealth of f'ennsvlvaiila iigalust the state treasury ring that (s using their money; tlie man whom thuy elected get orner, w he lehises te see that 'the law s ure executed and hu Imsoiiie u servant of that ring, and the ctimmlssleuers or the kinking fund, who lelate the law- with their governor's consent und approval.
