Lew Hewling Loudly Fer " Hnmeuy."
He Brags That Every Appointment
Uy Denues Will Be Itls Selection.
The content for mayor of this city, which
comes off finally at the polls next Tuesday,
, basidragged aWg rather slowly and un
'evehtfnlly until within the past few days.
Thus far the Intelmekxckii, for reasons
stated at the outset, has forborne editorial
cnmment en the candidates ; and will con
tinue te adlicre te this policy. The Ex
uminrrand iStua Era, however, In their
most recent Issues hnve beeu moved te
Inveigh with much zeal against such of
their party friends as see (It te vete 'Inde
pendently en municipal matters. If we
were te Inter the political situation from
the perturbation In the editorial minds of
the directors of theje organs, It might be
suspected that the Republican candidate Is
In serious danger of being beaten.
In the contest at the Republican prlmar
les.what isknewn asthe Hartmat-Sensenlg
faction was warmly for Denues. Its ward
politicians champlenea ltls cause with zeal
and bittern ess, and backed It with meney.
Wherever a Davis man showed his head
they hit it. The present mayor, Capt.
Edgerley, was especially bitter against
Dr. Davis, and as much as said he
would be cut te death If nominated
new. His pollce wcre almost solid
for Denues, and the most shameful
debauchery aud bribery ran riot In
several wards In Denues' behalf. The
New Era, for purely persenal reasons,
rather favored Denues; and its candidate
for lieutenant governor, E. K. Martin,
esq., was prudently politic, and kept out of
the fight. Hut tlie Hartman crowd gave
out that Denues' nominntien was a Hull
King victory, and that it meant the su
premacy of their crowd in the city ; that no
Martin delegnle could be elected te the
ltepubltcan state convention from Lancas
ter. Moreover, It Is well known that Capt.
Denues js politically bound te the Hart
man faction, and that no man who does
net train with it could have tlie ghost of a
chance for a municipal appointment under
a Denues administration.
Under tliose clrcumstances it Is qulte
natural there should be some llttle apathy
among (he Republicans who have never
worn the Hartman cellar; and, in some of
the wards, the" inore iudopendont men of
the party, while willing te vete tlie regular
ticket, de net propose te be made te eat
dirt nor te be dragged into throwing up
their hats for a Hartman candidate
Accordingly the JVew Era has been in
sisting that Capt. Denues Is the candid at e
of no clique or faction ; and the Examiner,
which Is mero distinctly recognized asthe
Stalwart organ, is rearing gently in the
same strain. Hut the Independent
Republicans, who have been se eften
deluged with the Hartman bluff,
brag and bluster, show no signs of
being intimidated and are jiet disposed te
hand themselves evor te crucifixion.
Denues was hardly nominated until Hart
man was bragging that every appoiutment
was premised him, and that the police or
every ward would be solid for his ticket
and for anti-Martin delegates at the next
primary. New, that he finds these chickeus
coming home te roost, he is howling for
" harmony " in one breath, while with the
next he vows vongeanco against Dr. Davis
and all of his friends.
Anether thing that scorns te be troubling
the newspaper supporters of Capt. Denues
Is thoasseitlou that a geed many of the
Republican liquor men who are incensed
at his course en the Prohibition question
will net vete for him; while seme of the
small cigar dealers, butchers, milkmen and
confectionoi s.aggruvated bythe persecution
of the KauHman-Crawford-Rittenheuso
"Law and Order" society, are rather indif
ferent te the electien of a man supposed te
be In sympathy with the movement.
The Xew Ei a, which has been the single
local daily backing the Kauffraau-Craw-ford-Rlttcnheuso
movement, very natur
ally comes te the support of Capt. Denues,
aud declares its cand idate never has been
a Prohibitionist, nor a member of the Law
a-id Order society ; and Lew Hart
man Is carrying around the petition
for Crawford's- appoiutment te show
that hi candtdate was smart enough
net te sign it. Captain Denues
hopes te cupture tlie Prohibition
vete and (he Kauffinan-Crawford-Rlttenheuso
clique, while his political
backers and newspaper clacquers whip
Inte line the kicking shopkeepers and ice
cream dealer. It remains te be seen hew
this attempt te carry water en ene Shoulder
and whisky en tlie otlier will weric.
Anether interesting element In the cam
paign is tlie attempt te " work" the O. A.
R. Quite a number of Grand Army men
are indignant that Dr. Davis lias been as
sailed fur daring te oppeM) Denues' nomi
nation. They say tlie doctor was a soldier
and a (S. A.R. man himself and had as
geed a right te be a candidate as Denues,
who is net strictly speaking a "one-armed
soldler" in the seuse his supporters imply;
he did net leso his arm in tlie war,
but It was shot off while the captain was
firing a salute te celebrate a Democratic
victory, before the war, when Captain
Denues was a pre-slavory Demecrat.
Thus gees the drift or political discus
sion. It is the ISTKM.ieuscun's duty te
ehronlcle it ; net, in this campaign, te com
ment en it.
Mcanwhlle tlie Democratic organization
in the city is solid and active. With Repub
lican quarrels It has nothing te de. Its party
has unanimously presented aclcan, capable
candidate, whom its voters believe te be
quite as geed materlal ter mayor as Capt.
Denues; and who is entitled te the solid
support of the Democracy, and bids fair te
receive it.
batanti and described the qualities that
make poetry worthy the name, he awarded
the prizes. After the contest speeches wcre
made by Drs. Hark, Dubbs, Kleffer, Stahr
and Prof. Mull. Short addresses wcre alto
made by. tome alumni.

Jehn Suavely and Henry Strickier were
heard by Justice Ruth, of Rothsvllle, te

The complaints were made by Constable

sioner H. C. Demutb, of this city. The
charges preferred were fishing en Sunday
and with a seine In a trout stream.
The hearing attracted a large crowd, as

cases were fully made out. At the con
clusion of the testimony, Jehn A. Ceyle,
esq., attorney for the fish commlssleuor,
stated that it was net their Intention te
have these defendants severely punished,
but that a sufficient line should be im
posed te prevent similar violations In the
future.
The defendants wcre willing te pay tlie
penalty prescribed, and a fine of tZZ was
Imposed for fishing with a selne, and in
addition the defendants paid all the costs
In the case.

This morning Newton D. Harsh, a young

Light company, had a thrilling oxperience
and a narrow escape from a fearful fall, en
Grant street, near Water.
A corps of olectric light linemen, under
Su-ierlutendent Shoemaker, were remov

teen feet from the ene which was being
taken out.
Harsh was en top of the pole from which
the wires bad been taken and it was with

Shoemaker Mas en the ethor pole work

te which young Harsh was clinging. It
began falling and Shoemaker, ebserving

rope evor the falling pole and about .the
shoulders el the lineman.

Oxford, Feb. 14. The farmers' Insti
tute advertised te be held here en the 13th
and 14th of February, under auspices of the
State Beard of Agriculture, opened yester
day morning under circumstances and
with a spirit and lnterest that augured fav
orably for Its success. The meeting was
promptly called te erder by Hen. T. K.
Stubbs, of Oxford, and Jes. Reynolds, esq.,
of East Nottingham township, cx-ceunty
commissioner, was called te the chair.
Hen. T. K. Stubbs and Douglas Brlnten, of
Oxford, wcre named for secretaries, and
after a short but appropriate address of
welceme given by Mr. Stubbs, the
meeting was opened ter business, the hall
being already well filled.
" Seed Time and Harvest," was the sub
ject of a paper by Samuel Broemoll, of
Upper Oxford, In hlch agriculture,
nnclent and inodern, religious thoughts,
aud high moral ldeas were deftly blonded,
and the audionce were clearly shown that
In all the walks and occupations of life the
nature oftlie seed sewn was n sure Indica
tion of what the harvest would be.
Ferrest Preston, of Llttle Britain, fel.
lowed In a geed andlappreprtate essay upon
"Success In Cattle Feeding" which was di
vided under the three heads of "buying,
feeding and soiling." Under these heads
he proceeded te full and geed dlroctiens as
te the necessary requisites te succeed, but
railed te show hew this requisite, under
present conditions of our markets, wero te
te be attained, no doubt because they are
unattainable The paper was well rocelved,
and was dlscussed by Dr.JC. W.Stewart, J.
Richards and ethers.
After adjournment, for dinner, meeting
reassembled at 1:30, the question box was
epened and after answering of questions
the regular papers were taken up. The
read questien was thoroughly venti
lated. Chas. R. Downing, or West Chos Ches
ter,read a strong and exceedingly caremlly
prepared paper en "Macadamized reads a
means or cheapening read tax te (armors."
He advocated the macadamizing or the
principal oreur country reads, a row at a
tlme, beginning with the worst piace. This
he said could be successrujly done by a
nine inch layer of material properly pro pre
pared, at a cost of $3,000 per mlle, and clted
Instances of reads In Vermont being suc
cessful with six Indies of stone laid en
solid hard pun bottom, and this he thought
would lie the read of the future en our
hills. Rev. Dr. Jeffries followed and ad
vocated improvement by this or some
ethor means, his subject being "Uralns vs.
Muscle In Read Mending." After a pleas
and profitable talk for half an hour he gave
way te David H. Bransen, of Fallowfield,
who read a paper, which Cel. Jas. Yeung
had read befere the read commission at
Harrisbarg, advocating state aid. Hen.
Jno. W. Hickman followed In Berne geed
remarks and gave figures showing hew the
state could and should macadamize all our
principal reads. Mr. Jeffrios, of New
Garden, and D. F. Magee, of White Reck,
pitched iute the theories of the ether
gontlemoii unmercifully and proved by
figures taken from the three townships
or Llttle Britain, Fulton and Sadsbury
that te macadumize the half of our reads
would take mero money than the assessed
value of all the property In these town
ships evor their judgment debts; aud
that anyhow tills was a phenomeual year
In rain and the warm winter, and in most
years our reads are in reasonably geed con
ditien for travel ferten months In the year,
far better than a six-inch macadamized
read at the end of ten years. The discus
sion elicited a great deal or Intcrest, and
sbewed that the fanners are wide awake en
the subject.
The next called was Mr. Neal Hamble Hamble
ten, of Fulton township, who read In a
pleasaut and forclble manner an exccllent
paper en " City vs. Country Lire," show
ing that with all Its hard work and telling
tlie life or the rarmer and his family Is
preferable te llfe In tlie city with all Its un
certainties, temptations aud foverlsh ox ex ox
cltement and pleasures.
Hen. Jehn W. Hickman, of Russell
ville, came next In a talk upon the "cul
ture or pears, peaches aud small fruit iu
Lancaster and Chester counties, and in a
pleasant and forclble talk or an hour he
proceeded te set forth the advantages te be
derived by our farmers who would engage
in this branch or agriculture. He iu-
stanced the success of it In ethor soctlens,
and referred particularly te Juniata county.
Pa.
D. F. Mngee, of White Reck,' took issue
squarely with the speaker, claimed that
peaches would net be grown In this section
witli success; ene oral the most two crops
being all that would be gathered from the
trees. He moreovor claimed that the best
of peach lands wero new offered for sale at
from $15 te J20 per acre, and hew could we
hope te liuprove the price or our lands by
growing peaches, even IT it were possible
te de de ?
At the evening icasleti Dr. Henry Left-
man gave a met instructive and niguiy
interesting loclure en "The Chemistry
or Oilier Worlds." The ball was crewded
by an appreciative audience, and all de
parted for home well pleased with the re
sult oftlie first day's work.
FRIDAY'S SESSION.
The second day's session or the lustitute
was called toerder promptly by President
Reynelds, at 0:30 a. in. After the answer
ing of a few referred questions the first
paper of (lie morning was read by the lien,
W. II. Hresius, of Druinore; subject, "In
dustrial education."
Mr. Hresius handled his subject in his
usual spirited style, aud succeeded in olio
itlngtlie close attention and interest of his
audience, while be set forth the many ad
vantages or this new departure iu public
Bchoel education. It was fully discussed
by Isaac Richards, Jehn Haldersten, James
Lynch and ethers, who generally agreed
that though this branch of education
might be of general advantage In towns
and cities, Its need was net se pressing in
the county, where the opportunities ter
practice In the evcry-uay routlr.e or a
rarmer boy's life were a geed substitute
for this training. Some laughter at the
oxpense of our city cousins was caused by
cases being cited or city boys who could
net make a peg te fit an augur hole, and or
a minister, who te save his neck could net
tie a hitching strap te a pest.
The next and best paper or the day's ses
sion was read by W. F. McSparran, or
Fairfield, en the topic or "The fanner."
It was full te overflowing In matter for
deep thought and 'Contemplation, dressed
in the language of elegance, grace and
beauty that this poet or tlie southern end
writes with such a facile pen. It was much
admired, and Mr. Me. was gfven u vete of
thanks by the audience
The answering of a referred question bo be
gan te lead into a political discussion which
threw the audlcnce intoexcitemont at once,
but after some sharp firing rrem both
sides was stepped by the president. A
resolution te ask the Legislature for an ap
propriation te have a yearly trial of farm
machinery under the auspices of the State
Beard of Agriculture was warmly discussed
by David H. Bransen, who Introduced tt,
and W. II. Breslus, Neal Hambleton and
Jehn Baldersten, but D. F. Magee, esq.,
and Granville Coates opposed It se strenu
ously that they succeeded In defeating it,
A motion by Isaae Richards te condemn
the action of the county commissioners of
Chester county for building lau annex te
the court house at West Chester was offered
but B. O. Patterson, of White Reck, and
D. F. Magee objected that this was an Inter
county Institute, and the Lancaster county
contingent objected te put In the position
of expressing an opinion en Chester county
matters ; the objection sustained by the
president, and motion ruled out of erder;
After dinner meeting reassembled at 1:30
p. m. Geerge Walten, of East Nottingham,
a practical potato grower, read a geed,
practical paper en that subject. A long dis
cussion followed, taken part In by Isaae
Rlehards, Neal Hambleton, Robt. H. Hod Hed Hod
gesen, Mahlen Breslus and Jeshua Jeftrles;
the latter,aneld and successful grower,gave
some valuable Information. He guaranteed
a crop of from 200 te 350 bushels per acre
every year te the man that would plant as
follews: Say yen want te plant five acres
per year, then take a plat of ten acres light
loamy soil, prepare thoroughly with ma
nure the first yeas, plant one-half In pota
toes and sew the ether half early in the
spring with clevor, allow this clevor te lay
aud In the rail sew with land plaster and
plow down, then the following spring your
plewed down clevor hair was ready for
planting in potatoes, and your ether half
te sew In clever for your next year's crep:
all without manure. This ceurse the
speaker said might be kept up indefinitely,
and a crop assured every year. If any fer
tilizers at all was noedod, he recemmended
applying 80 pounds of nltrate of Beda per
acre, by sewing along the row otter the
potatoes were up, and working In as you
worked your potatoes. This plan, the
speaker said, he had long tried, and as he
Is an agriculturist or long oxperienco and
lntolligence, and well known, no doubt
many will try his plan. The white star
potato was recommended by all speakers
as the host. Prof. Jno. B. Randall, of Lin
coln, read a geed paper, and in a humorous
vein ssvorely criticised the management or
our county fairs. B. O. Patterson, W. H.
Breslus and ethers defended the fairs. A
strong paper en farming, by Mahlen G.
Breslus, was well received and Ailly dls dls
cuseod. Heward Preston, a Republican,
proceedod te thew that it was the high
tariff that was ruining our farming Indus
try, but en being called te order by the
president he exclaimed that farmers could
never knew the truth If they wcre never te
be allowed te discuss It In a farmers' insti
tute. After seme mero skirmishing the
questien was ruled out, and rosulted In D.
F. Mngee, esq., challenging Hen. W. II.
Breslus te discuss the tariff question In a
public meeting In the samehall in the near
future. Mr. Breslus did net then accept,
but we understand a match Is te be ar
ranged seen.
At the evening session Prof. Cochran, of
West Chester, Prof. Uoiges, of state beard,
gave each lectures en highly Interesting
subjects, and their efforts were well re
ceived. MissSue E. Lynd, of Nottingham
read ene of the best papers of the aosslen,
en " Weman and Her Sphere," and she
handled her subject in her usually mas mas
teriy fashion. The peeple then departed,
alter voting the Institute a grand success.

In December last jlsaae B. Sawtolle was

Isaac had deceived bis mether, and In
duced her te transfer the property te him.
but Hiram put an Injunction upon It, The
property Is said te be worth $15,000 te t'JO.OOO.
About two weeks age Isaac proposed going
te New Hampshire en n buslness trip, and
asked If he might take his llttle nloce
Marlen with him and his mether.
On tlie 4th Instant Harrison received a
telegram rrem Isaac, dated Rochester, N.
Y., saying that Marlen waR very 111 and
urging him te conie en. Hiram reach ed
there at 0:45 o'clock en Wodnesday morn

and was seen te start away and no vor again

On Thursday Isaae returned te Bosten
with his mother and lilece. He told his
sister-in-law that he had net scen his

te nieet him. lie shewed no interest iu
his brether's movemonts, and she accused

On Thursday a hatchet which has been
Idontlfled as ene purchased by Isaae II.
Sawtolle last woek, was round in the river.
On tlie hatchet traces or bleed can be seen,
and en the handle tliore Is n small frag frag
ment or what appears te be human fiesh.
A piece or wrapping paper was also round
similar (e that which covered the hatchet
which the hardware dealer sold.
The grave belng oiencd tliore was ro re
vealed a sickening sight. The body was
naked save for tlie socks en the root. The
head aud both arms had been chopped elf.
The feet wero uppermest and within a row
Inches of the surface Tliey prossed against
the thighs, and the shoulders wero at the
bottom of the grave. The body thus bant
had been rammed Inte the narrow hole,
and only tlie disfiguring or the ground by
tlie spade and the disturbance or tlie brush
showed where tlie cerpse was cencealed.
In the hole was also round the shell or tlie
cartridge wIiohe loaden mossengor sent
Hiram Sawtolle te eternity. A geld collar cellar
button was also round in the hole.
The grave was made iu a growth or thiek
Rhrubbery at a point about soventy-llve
root Trem the read leading te East Lebanon,
Herwick county. The place is known as
Blalsdell's Cerners, and is lour mlles rrem
Rechester, N. II., and 2 miles Inslde
the Malno boundary. Within a, red or this
identical spot O Hi cer Shleld yesterday
found the plece of brown wrapping paper
in which Isaae Sawtelle carried his newly
bought hatchet from Tradesman Wallace s
store In East Lebanon. The Bosten dotoc detoc dotec
tlvo then said that the cerpse was burled
net far away.
It is new belleved that Isaae
purposely crossed evor into the Pine
Troe state te commit the murder there,
knowing that the capital ininlshtnent law
had long slnce been abolished, and that
imprisonment ler me weuiu no ms sen
teneo In the ovent of his being caught.
He took the long, circuitous read from
East Rocliestor te Lebanon, through a dis
trict sparsely settled and abounding lu
forests. The bleed-stains Inside the buggy
show that he shot his brether during the
ride, holding his revelver clese te the
body, and thoreby deadening tlie report.
Hitching his horse te a troe tlie murdorer
carried the lifeless form of his brether into
the weeds; then he get out his plck-ax,
and with his spade dug a hele about 4 fcet
doep aud 2 J feet wide. The night was
dark, aim inere was no liouse nearer man
one-hair a mlle. Then began the work of
butchery by the Inhuman assassin.
The bleed coverod cerpse was deubled
up at the waist and crammed neck down
Inte the ground, the earth was shoveled In
aud the surface smoothed evor, and all
that was mortal of Hiram Sawtolle was re
moved from the sight of man. Meautlme
an old lady and her pretty granddaughter
were waiting Impatiently lu William
Smith's boarding-heuso. In Rochester.
The old lady was Hiram's and Isaac's
mether, aud the llttle girl was Hiram's
daughter Marien, betli having been used
bv Isaae as docevs te lure Hiram Sawtdlle
rrem Ills Bosten home te his 'grave in the
weeds, all oblivious or the foul consult acy

Isaac Sawtelle returned that nluht at bed-

the atrocious crime he had committed dur
ing his absonce.
The search, which ended iu the sensa
tional discovery of Friday afternoon, began
at daylight. Tlie country for miles around

accuses the detectives with having brought
her rrem comfortable circumstances te
virtual poverty, and of working upon her
reelings by misrepresentation until she
was willing te de whatever they asked her,
even te the signing ever te them or her
ntlre bank account.
They had her under onllre control from
the fall of 1880 until January 18S9. Se
great was their pewer evor her 'that It took
Mrs. Heeper six months te make up her
mind te prosecute them. She pitifully
told her counsel that she reared they would
kill her irshe did, and beggod him te take
her testimony befere she was murdered or
kidnapped.
The persecuted woman Is new iu Phlla

Mrs. Heeper employed the detocllves
Novumber 1, 1880, te find her daughter,
who mysteriously disappeared from a
bearding school in West Philadelphia.
Her husband, Qoergo II. Heeper, who
deserted her provleus te Novemuer, 1880,
was, at the tlme of her daughter's disnp disnp disnp
poarance, living at Boivldere, N. J. No
vember 13 Aloxander and Hall, acting
upon Information furnished by her, found
tlie missing daughter with her futher, at
Bel vldore. That for n period of about four
months the dotectlvos did net Inform her
or thelr discovery, and during ail that
peried oharged her about $3,000 Ter servlces
never rendered.
The doreudants represented that her hus
band had fermed u plot te solze and incar incar incar
ctirote her In an Insane asylum. ,Fer ser
vices in this direction never rendered they
charged her evor $1,000. She was luduced
te occupy rooms solected by the accused in
dlfforent parts of the city and wus cut off
Trem communication with her friends and
family. The defendants secured n key te
her lotter box In the postefllco and epened
and read her letters, delivering tliose they
saw fit.
They discharged her regular physician
and solectod ene for her. Horatternoys in
dlvorce proceodings against her husband
wero notified by the dotectlvos that all
buslness must be transacted through them.
They ropresoutod tliomselvos te be large
real estate ewners with four bank accounts,
and told her that her wisest ceurse wan te
withdraw her meneys dopesitod witli the
Pennsylvania Company Ter Insurances en
Llves and Granting Annuities and dopeslt

She withdrew her entire bank account,
$18,412.08, and dopesitod it with the do de
fondants us her bankers. Instead or writ
ing in the deposit book In thelr own hand
writing the dotectlvos caused her te make
tlie entry In erder te destrey tlie evidence
of thelr Indebtedness te her. In erder te
make ovldenco favorable te thomselvns
they drew a check te her erder en their

however, she rofused te de. The deposit
and cheek books and ethor papers belong

Iu conclusion the affidavit says the do de

conducted systematically. Swamps were
pushed through and the soil in damp
places turned many a time iu the hope of
fiudlngnomethlng te correspond with the
foamy substance found en the spade which
Isaac'Sawtelle had purchased at the stere of
Jeseph Wentworth.
Finally ene man found n low-cut shoe
bolemrlnir te the mlsslnt; man. Its mate
was found only a few moments later.
liloed was seen en the hiiew at several
points searched evor, and a white hand
kerchief was picked up by Officer Whit
man with me letter "" en it in lnueiiime
Ink. A shred or dark cloth, with the edges
tern, was the next Important find. It was
stuck (ast te the end or a sapling. Theso
articles wero all round near ene uuether in
tlie neighborhood or lllalsdell's Cerners,
leaving no doubt that the cerpse of the
victim was net far away. Se it proved
when a triumphant shout trem tlie thicket
told the searchers that ut Ust the mystery
was solved. Tlie body was frozeu rust in
the ground, and it required hard work te
dig it up.
One or the first questions the prisener
asked Inspector Ulldden Friday night was
If Dr. Bleed had been arrested yet. Dr.
liloed is the name of a mysterious person
whose acquaintance Isaae Sawtolle made
w lieu both were doing time in Charlestewn
prison. The doctor is known te tlie pollce
ua a. hard character. He has been con
cerned In several crimes. He Is suspected
as belng Isaac's confederate, although tlie
part played by him In the murder is net
ex plained. It is said be was boeh in Saw
telle' company iu RoUiestor 0110 day last
week.
In his diary the prisener refers te "Ed"
a number of times. " Ed" slept In tlie
Sawtelle liouse In Renten, ene night lust

some ether creek remains te be discovered
but thn arrest of a hocend man concerned
