The court thanked the grand inquest for
the efficient man nor in which they dis
charged their duties. The court did net
seothe necessity for a new county build
ing. The report showed that there are a
number of insane which could be sent te
the asylum at Harrisburg, and kept there
choaper than at the Institution, and by re
moving them that much room would be
gained. As te proper accommodations for
witnesses appearing before the grand in
quest, the court thought that an annex
would be built by the commissioners in
the near future.

And She Shake th Itanda of a Largs
Number While the Train Wattsat ths
Station A Reception tn BarrUburg.
Miss Nellie Dly, the young woman who
became famous by making a quick trip
around the world, will have completed hir
task by the time the IttTKixiOKWcsn
reaches Its readers this evening. The
young lady left Chicago en one of the
regular trains of the Pennsylvania railroad
yesterday' morning, and it was known that
she would pass through Lancaster, unless
she would take the Limited Express, which
runs around the rity by way of the cut off.
This forenoon It was learned that she was
a passenger en Attantle Express, which
waa due here at 11:35. This fact seen
became known about town, as It was an
nounced upon the bulletin beard lu the
P. R, R. station which is used for giving
the times of departure for different trains.
On the ether slde of the beard were the
words " On Tline " for Atlantic Express.
Leng before 11 o'clock people began te
wend thelr way te the station, and there
must have been considerably ever a thou
sand peeple in an about the station when
the train arrived. There were a great
number of ladles all anxious te see the
young traveler. A dispatch from Harris
urg stated that she was In the last car of
the train, which was a vosttbule. As seen
as the ongine put in an appearance
a howl from the hundreds of small
boys, that had assembled, went up. Every-'
body rushed for the rear of the train which
was up in the neighborhood of Miller fc
Hartman's warehouse. As seen as the train
stepped thore was a rush te take Miss Nol Nel Nol
lle by the hand and the car was surrounded
by a great crowd, some of whom acted llke
wild peeple. Miss llly seen made
her appearance en the platform. She
Is a young woman in her twen
ties and of rather slight build. She
were a checkored ulsier and a double rim rim
med cap. She has a very pleasant face and
leeks like a whele -souled young woman.
While the train was standing she was kept
as busy as a bee shaking hands with the
big crowd, and It was Impossible for any
ene te held a conversation with her,
although several newspaper men tried it
very hard. She scorned greatly ploased
with her roccptieu, and her face was
covered with smiles as long as the train
remained. Wiiiie Miss Bly was busy
shaking jeople by the band seme ene in
the crowd proposed threo choers for her
and they were' giveu with a will. These
who could net shake the girl by the hand
were obliged te uontent theuiselves encor
ing for her. It was surprising, however,
what a large number wero able te get her
hand, and they hung en the car platform
like flies. Theso who get te the girl's slde
wero scarcely able te get away, se dense
was the crowd. This thing was kept up
until the train started, and as it leff Miss
Bly remained upon the platform waving
her cap te the crowd Its long as they wero
in sight.
The only newspaper man from a dis
tance that met Miss Bly hore was Rufus
Reed, of the Philadelphia Js'ews. He came
up in a morning train specially te meet
Miss Bly, and his intention was te Inter
view her botween tills city and Philadel
phia, where the newspaper men gave her a
warm reception.
There wero many funny llttle Incidents
while Miss Bly'a train steed in the station
and it was curious te watch hew anxious
the oepio wero te get up te the young
lmiy. One llttle fellow, who had a tin
bucket filled with dinner, which he "was
probably carrying te his father, get In the
crowd. He was hustled around se much
that the lid finally came off the kettle and
the dinner was spilled all evor the
platform. It was tee late te save any of It,
as the pushing, surgiugcrewd walked right
evor It The party for whom the dinner
was intended probably went hungry, but
the boy had a shake of Nellle Bly's baud;
that was all he cared for. A young fellow
was asked by a friend whother he had
shaken Ncily. He replied : " I was In the
crowd almost up te her when a darkey that
weighed about 200 pounds stepped en my
feet. On account of the pain I forget all
about the young traveler, and I am net
evor It yet."

All men at the head of great movements
are Christian men. During the many years
I was In the cabinet I was brought into

all but flve of them are Christians. My

A letter from ox-Presldont Grevor Clove Cleve

concluding session of the Custom Cutters'
national convention. The full text was as

" G. II. Huntoon, esq.. president Dear
Sir : I thank you for Bending me your ad ad

tom Foremou Tailors' association, aud I
have read the same with luterast.
"The nuostlen of tariff referm dlrectlv
. affects all the poeplo of the land in a sub-
sinnuai way, anti iney eugnt te ue inter
ested in Its discussion. I am afraid that a
great many of our fellow-citizens are tee
apt te regard this as a political question,
Inlricate and complex, affecting thorn in a
remote way, and ene which may well
eneugh be left for politicians te wrangle
ever. Tills Induces a neglect of the subject
en the partef agroatnumberef our poeplo,
and a wllllnguess te blindly fellow the
party te which they happen te beleng in
their action upon It.
" It is a geed sign te bee practical men,
such as belong toyeur association, discuss
ing the question for tliomselvos. If this is
dene Intelligently, and with slncere intent
te Kocuretho truth, tariff rofermors, I think,
have no need te 'fear the result of such dis
cussion. Very tnily yours,
" Gnevnn Cleveland."
This lotter was written In reply te ene
by Mr. Iluntoen, (he president of the Cut Cut
ters' association, asking for some statement
en the tariff question as It affected the
tailors. An oxectly similar letter was sent
te Prosldent Harrison, but as yet no reply
has been received. After the letter had
been reed the convention extended its
thanks te Mr. Cleveland.

DK.MOCItA.T8 IN CAUCUS.
The New RuIch Censtdnred Determina
tion te Resist Obnoxious Clauses.
The Democratic members of the Heuso
wcre in caucus for two hours Friday night,
with Mr. Helman, of Indiana in the chair.
The subject under discussion was the new
cedo el rules new lu course or preparation
by the com initttoeu rules. Mr, Carllsle,
the Democratic inomber or that committee,
explained in detail me nature ei me prin
cipal changes projtesed te be made iu the
old cede.
Briefly stated, these that wero Instanced
by Mr. Carllsle as being particularly objoc ebjoc objec
tiouablo te the Dciuecmtiu minority are the
rules that de away with tbe old Heuse cal
endar, leaving only the calendars of the
cotiimltteo of the whele und the state of the
union ; that inuholvUitqueruinof thocom thecom thocem
mltteo of the whele; that ro-establish the
old morning hour rule when busiuess must
be considered in the order of the commit commit commit
tee list and bills must be regarded as pend
ing until disposed of, and that fall te m,ikr
privileged the motions te adjourn te u fixed
day or take a recess. There was u long
discussion ever these proposed changes,
which failed te result In the advancement
efanv practical schome for tho.atnellora-
tlnu of the repugnant feature of the new
nil os.
Theu the contested olectiou cases wero
talked e or, and Mr. Crisp told of the pur pur pur
poseor the Republicans te call up the first
of the West Virginia cases. It is generally
agreed that the intontlen of the Republi
cans Is te unseat as many Democrats and
scat as many Republicans us will glve thorn
u fair working majority' and Insure a
quorum, iu order te foice through the
rules. Although no formal resolution
was adopted, It was a matter or under
standing uiiieug the Democratic inoinbers
when the cuucuk adjourned that this Hit
publican plan should be resisted tn the
utmost, und that the minority should exer
clse all el lis constitutional riguis te pre
vent Its success. In ethor words, the de
termination Is te fight the rules legitimately
when obnoxious sections ure reucliisl. and
te refrain from voting und leave the Heuso
without a quorum If uu attempt Is made
te unseal Democratic members befere the
rules are adopted.

A SBOO.OOO LAMP POST.
Te Be Planted By Unde Sam in Sand
And Water.
Bids will be opcued in the office of the
lighthouse beard, at Washington, D. C,
July 1, for the erection of a lighthouse ou
the Outer Diamond shoal.eff Cape Hatleras,
N. O. The total cost of the structure Is
limited by act or Congress te hair a million
dollars. The Diamond shoals, which lle
southeasterly of Cape Uatteras,haye always
been dreaded by mariners as the most ex
posed and dangerous locality en the entire
Atlantla coast, and a large number of ves
sels have been wrecked thore annually, In
volving enormous losses of llfe aud prop
erty. A lighthouse en the euter shoal would
have undoubtedly saved many of theso
vessels, as the nearest light en Cape Hat
tents Is Invisible in bad weather. A light
has never been orectod In this shoal befere
en account of the extraordinary engineer
ing dlfllcnltlcs In the way. and the work
new contemplated will be the greatest
undertaking In the line or llghthouso llghtheuso llghthouse
building In the world. Thore ure but two
lighthouses lu the world that can be at all
compared with It. These are the. Rethor
sand light at the mouth of the Weser river,
Helland. In the North Soe, snd the fourteen-eeot
light at tbe mouth of the Dota Deta
waro boy.
The tewer Is te be ene hundred and fifty
feet high from low water mark te the light
lit the lantern. It will have te be of great
strength te withstand the action of the sea,
and will have te rest en solid rock beneath
the over-slilfting sands of the shoal. Te
obtain this soil d foundation aud get the
structure (e such a' height that the first
rough woather will net destrey it utterly Is
the great problem that the builders will
have te solve.
When all the odges rest firmly en the
rock the entire caisson and tube will be
tilled with caucrole te a height of thirty
feet abeve the sea lovel, converting It Inte
a solid block and column of stene almost
as firm as a graulte monolith. The action
of the seas and the constant scouring of the
sand might seen wear away the iron shell,
but the cencrete will be practically ludo lude ludo
Ktructible. It will be protccted, however,
by a rip-rap acking of granite blocks
weighing net less than two tens each.
Abeve tills solid struct ure will rise an
Iren and steel tewer divlded Inte ten
storles, Including the watch-room and the
lantern.
After getting the caisson towed out te its
final resting place the contractors will have
te work night and day, without A moment's
Intormisslen until It rests en Its foundation
and tbe concrete Is filled in, for if a storm
should arise bofero this work was dene
overythlng would be destreyed. At tbe
Rothersand light, which was built en this
prlnciple, the first caisson was thus de
stroyed and the contractor was financially
rulned by the less. In this lighthouse the
first fleer will be devoted te stores, the
second te the fog signal machinery. The
third fleer will be n fireproof storehouse
for oil for the lamp The next four floors
will contain the living rooms for the kenper
and his assistants. Thoelghth fleer will
be the service room, and abeve it will rise
the watch room and the lantern.
The llghthouse beard does net specify
what method shall be adepted, but It Is
generally understood that an Immense
caisson, eighty or one hundred feet in dia
meter, witli a hollow Iren cllluder project
lug from Us contre, will be built at the
most convenient pert. This will rosemble
a gigantic Iren pan turned upslde down,
with a tube running from Its cotitre. This
caisslen will have te be tewed out te the
slte, being lifted en the way evor a bar
whero thore Is but eight feet of water at
high tide. When It is finally at the slte It
will be sank rapidly until Its cutting edges
rest en the Bunds et the shoal. Then the
work of excavation will be begun and car
ried en us fast as the most modern appli
ances will admit. As the sand beneath the
caisson Is oxcuvated and carrled up through
the tube the sharp edges will sink lower
until finally bed rock is reached.
Werk is te be commencod within ene
month from the date of the approval of the
contract and the contractor is te fix the time
within which it lste be completed. Ne pay pay
ment Is te be made until the llgblhouse has
been in successful operation a year. Not
withstanding the unusual dlffloultlesln the
way of carrying out tills work, a number
of large engineering firms will probably
bhl. and It is thought thore will be no diffi
culty in onterlng into a contract.
