A BOY DROWNED.

Hla Hat and a Fishing Pele round en the

r
Charles Evans, nine-year-old son of
Martin Evans, a well known cltlten of
Qaarryvllle, was drewned Heme tinie en
Monday afternoon or evening.
The accident, which caused considerable
excitement, occurred at the " spring houve
quarry," which Is situated hi the village.
Ills a hole of tremendous size, filled with
spring water te the depth of about CO feet,
and is a splendid place for bathing.
The little boy was away from home the
gteater part of Monday, as he had gene te
hunt what he called "money stone." lie
did net come home for supper, and the
family bocatne uneasy. A sea roll was
"taade for lilra, and his hnt and a Ashing
"pole were found en the bank of the pond
where the depth is the greatest. It was
then almost certain that the boy was In the
water. An alarm was given and a search
made for the boy. Grappling hooks
were used and after a time the body of the
little fellow was brought te the surface. surface.
Frem all appearances It is bolievod that he
had been in the water for seme tlme. The
supposition Is that the boy attempted te
raise an outline which his brother had set
in the pond, and tumbled In. He had
been playing about the pond with seme
ether boys and when they left for their
homes he remained at the quarry. He was
last seen allve by Mrs. Martin Rlneer, who
lives near the pond,' about half past four
o'clock. She thought he was trying te lift
a line that his brother had set. It wiw
eight o'clock bofero the body was found
and it was brought te the surfaee by Jehn
Tayler.
After the body bad been found Deputy
Corener Creamer ompanellcd a jury com
posed of Gcerge W. Hensol, jr., Ezra B.
FriU, T. F. Watkins, William Murphy, L.
T. Hansel and Michael Woimer. Tliey
rendered a verdict of accidental drowning.
Mr. Evans has been quite unfertunate,
as it has been but two years since he had a
son killed en the railroad.
THE WILBDK OPERA COMl'ANY.
They Sinn "Ermlnle" Under Anether
Ml Neme te n Large Andlonce.
If the Wilbur Opera company meets with
anything Uke the success, during the re
mainder of the week, that tliey had last
night they will have geed reason te be
proud and the Lancaster Ledge of Elks
will be a winner. There is no doubt that
comic opera has n big held upon I.ancasler
people and It seems that It will always
draw. The audience of last e veiling was
one of the largest that the epera heuse has
ever held. There was net a seat te be had
at 8 o'clock and later a great many people
were turned away, unable te obtain even
stand lue room. The gallery was paoked
and the way that the men and boys strug
gled te get Inte it was something wonder
ful. The epera was " Erminie," but it was
given under tbe name of "The Twe Vaga
bonds." The slat of the company is Miss
Susle Kirwin, who played tbe part of irni irni
cAen. The lady has a geed soprano veice
and sings very well. As an actress
she shows off te great advautage, for
she is full of life and dash. Her rouditien
of the slumber song drew her a number of
encores. J. E. Conley is a fair tenor singer,
but in the character of Leen Clime: he
acted better than he sang. II. W. Tre
denlck, who, by the way, is a Marietta
boy, and W. II. Kehnlo as Rebert Maccairc
and Jacques Strap, the vagabond, was very
funny. The duett of Mr. Kehnleaiid Miss
Kirwin wlien they sang a poredyon "Llsteu
te My Tale of Wee," was very funny, and
the audionce liked it, us the clever pair
were encored tlme and again. The chorus
did net coine up te ex (rotations and the
marching ei the girls was net geed. To
night "Nanen" will be given.
Among these who attended the perform
ance last evening were a number of ladles
and gentlemen from Marietta, who caine
down te soe Mr. Tredenlck.
TIIE LEAF TOBACCO MAHKKT.
A Few Hundred Cane of Geed Sold for
Expert.
Tbe past week was net a busy ene with
dealers in leaf tobacco. The sales aggro aggre
gated about 500 cases, part of which were
fillers for expert, and the remainder was
sold te jobbers.
About half of the IBS'.) crop bus been
purchased by packers. Of the remaining
tobacco thore is considerablo that is of geed
quality, but the doelors think it is held
at tee high a price Buyers are still hi the
country making an effort te purchase the
crop, but they And holders of tobacco less
anxious te dispose of their goods than be
fore the first of April, unless tliey receive
tbe price nsked for their tobacco. I'art of
the crop left is Inferior seed leaf and will
net be bought ut any price.

A Defeat for Itecter llolteu.
The election for vestryiueu of the church
of the Hely Trinity, West Chester, in
which thore has been such a bltter tight
between He v. Jehn llolten, the rector, und
tbe vestry, rcsulted in victory for the ves
try, by a vete of 31 te iS. The defeated
faction say the ntluir is net at mi end how
ever. Three of the four election ellleers
were members of the old vestry, mid they
refused four vetes which Hecter ltolteu
and his friends say they should hae re
ceived. It Is expected that the rector will be
asked te resign, but this he will probably
refuse te de, and a long and bitter struggle
will be the result.

Jacob H. Hestetter, Flerin i Calvin Cooper,
Blnl-ln-Hand; W. ,D. Wearer. D. M.
Swatr, S. P. Eby and Jehn H. Rudy, city.
Mr. Chandler reported the growing crops
In his neighborhood as looking well.
Mr. Hoever reported the pooch crop In
Manbelm township a failure, the trees hav
ing been frozen.
Mr. Landis reported that eats had been
planted In parts of his township.
He also reported that there would be
considerable opposition te the proposed
increased duty en Sumatra tobacco, en the
part of the cigar manufacturers throughout
the country.
Daniel Bineycji submitted two apples for
name. One was pronounced a gelden pip
phi and tiie ether a sheep nese.
The report of the treasurer te January 1,
showed a balance en hand of $40.68, and
Messrs. Eby and Heist, a commtttee ap
pointed te audit the account, reported it te
be correct.
Ephralm Hoever read a paper en " Hew
the farm will pay hotter," which was dis
cussed by a nnniber of the members.
Jehnsen Mlller followed with an essay
en "Disadvantages te the Farmer." He
held that a farm worth (20,000 was taxed
$125, while that amount of meney at Interest
paid a tax of only $00. A farmer will make
about thrce per eent. en tbe amount he has
Invested in the farm and if he has borrowed
meney he pays six per oent. He is con
stantly going backward and the end is an
assignment or sheriff's sale. He favored
an equalisatien of taxation by wbicli the
farmer would pay no mero than ether
classes.
This essay was discussed by Messrs.
Hoever, Chandler, Landis and Eby.
Calvin Cooper was appointed essayist for
the May meeting. His subject will be
"Agriculture In comparison with ethor in
dustries." Liquor Ltconne 'Doiible-lIeadorH."
An intorestlng view ofthe liquor-license
law was discussed In the Philadelphia
court en Monday by the judges before tliey
took up the list of applications for licenses
te soil at wholesale. As te the granting of
retail licenses the court under the law lias
full discretion. The Legislature intended te
glve the court the same discretion respect
ing licenses te soil at whelesale. lint the
supreme court dealded that the layr did
net grant such discretion unless remon remen
strances were llled and oeof offered that
the applicant did net possess the qualifica
tions reqiiired by law. Under this decision
about a hundred wholesale dealers who had
been refused licenses were granted them
und proceeded te keep saloons that were
a great deal worse than retail stores. Tliey
were simply shams, conducting a retail
business uuder cover of a wholesale license.
This year many knecked out saloon kcop kcep kcop
ers sent in two applications. If tliey failed
te get a retail license, tben they wanted a
wholesalo liconse us a matter of right. On
Monday Judge Gorden read a written opin
ion te the ell'uct that the two applications
wero inconsistent, and both should be
thrown out or the applicant required te
elect which he would withdraw. He also
said that by appearing in court and ask
ing for a retail llccnse u "doublo "deublo "double
hcador" had inade his election and his
wholesalo application ought te be con
sidered withdrawn. Judge Fell dlssonted,
saying that the applicants had a right te
ask that one application should be beard,
and if that was net granted the ethor should
lie considered. Judges Wilsen and Hrcgy
supported Judge Fell's view, though net
ugreelng altogether with his statoment of
the law of the case. This leaves the de
cision of the court in favor of hearing and
considering all applications, Judge Gorden
filing a written dissenting opinion. It is
highly prebable, howevor, that all the
doubfe-headors will be refused liceuses if
1 egal oxcuse can be found for doing se.
STJtEET COMMISSIONER SMELTZ.
The Recommendations He Will Muke
te the Street Committee.
Street Commissioner Smeltz has fitted
up the room in the City hall, oppesito that
used by the contrellor, for his elllce. He

box will be placed en the deer, and in ills
absouce complaints and messages for him
can be deposited. A book will plse be
placed hi the mayor's ofllce whero rcquests
for work can be recorded.
As seen us posslble uu examination of
all the stroet crossings will be made, and
whero tliey are tee low tlmy will be raised
and ropaired.
The street commissioner will ask the
couiuiittee te have a book prepared se that
a eompleto record of all sewer connections
can be kept. Thore never was such a
record heretofore and the result is frequent
disputes about amounts contributed toward
tbe building of sowers. Uuder the pro
posed system a perben bofero connecting
with a sower must obtain a permit, a record
of which will be made by the chief and
when u party contributes te the building
of a sower he will be furnished with a
certificate of the amount paid, which will
entitle him te connect with the sower.
The chief also Intends te kcep a record of
the cost el each pi cee of work, and at the
end of his term will make a detailed report
ofthe work dene. Very little work can be
doue en Uie streets until the stoue crusher
Is erected at the new quarry. The streets
will be scraped In the near future and
neccssary repairs will be tiiade at ence.

TIIE OHIO ELECTIONS.
Sweeping
Dcmoeratla Victories
All
Ovnr the State.
The elections held throughout Ohie en
Monday, while of a local character, were
yet as full, of significance as If elate officers
had been voted for, because of their show
ing the tendency of the people te sustain or
rebuke the Deraocr&tie administration,
which came Inte pewtr with the olectlon
of Governer Campbell last fall, and their
inn iaii, nnu iiieir
of the leatslatlen
approval ofthe chai
that has been onael
by the Democratic
eeneral aasemblv. w
Ich elected Calvin
8. Hrlce te the United Slates Senate.
Fer spring election an extraordinary
vote was polled. Reports from the prin
cipal cities and towns of Northwesteru
Ohie up te this hour (midnight) indicate
that the Democrats of Ohie have ceme Inte
position te stay, aa the gains all tend te
show that the party In power has a fine
held upon the voters of the state.
In Findlay, where, notwithstanding the
fact that the Republicans bad a natural
majority of 600, the Democratic mayor Is
elocted, and a gain of four oeunctlmen and
feu r members of the beard of education has
been made. The Democrats have also
carried Lima, Tlffln, Fremont. Marlen.
Upper Sandusky, Bucyrus, Sandusky and
Deuauce, as well as a number of smaller
places.
The Republicans made a tremendous
olfert all ever North wilern Ohie te achleve
a victory In erder that they might claim
that tbe people were net In sympathy with
the recent redlstrictlng of the state for con-
Srosslenal purpose and the olectlon of
rice te the United States Senate. These
were the issues, and the (act that the voters
ofthe state have again indicated their sym
pathy witli the Democrats through the
elections en Monday Is accepted by Demo
crats as ovldence that the Buckeye state is
becoming reliably Democratic.
The day was beautiful, but Uie Repub
lican vete foil elf amazingly In many
quarters of the state. Columbus gees Dem
ocratic by majorities ranging from SOO te
1.000, with big gains In that party for coun
cils. The result is largely owing te gen
eral lndifTorence and dissatisfaction In the
recent presidential aptmlutments.
At Steubonville Republicans elect a
majority of ofllcers. At Circle vllle. Chllli Chllli Chllli
cotlie, Newajrk, Dayton and Springfield
large Democratic 'gains are reported, giving
them control or city governments at Chll Chll Chll
llcothe and Sprlngfleld.
At Mount Vernen the Republicans swept
everything, and at I ronten. Portsmouth,
I.egan, Bucyrus and Wapakeneta honors
are even. Plqua went Domecratlo with
the oxception of clerk of school beard, and
Wooster swung into line for that party,
electing the ontlre ticket.
On the Hoserve the Republican majori
ties wero cut down at Youngstown, Kent,
Ravenna, Warren and ether places, largely
due te the falling off In the Republican
vete.
In the northwest the solid belt of Domo Demo Dome
cratlo counties kept up their record, with
larger majorities, and never wavered In
their allegiance At Cincinnati and Clovo Clevo Clove
land the vete was unusually light, and, as
is generally the case, the Republicans lest
by It. In the first named city thore was an
aKithy almost unprecedented, and the
prebable success of Emie Rease, Hepub
licau clerk of pelice court, is due mero te
his porseucl popularity than te his party
strength.
The result shows that the German vote
thore in u large degioe romalned with its
allies of last Novembor.
Tho,PrehlbltionltH had tickets in seme
of the smaller Ohie cities and Westorvllle
claims the olectlon of a mayor of that faith.
The Demecrats ofCIevcland elected their
entire municipal ticket, comprising com
mitteemen ofthe pelice, Are, cemotery and
water works beard und a Justice of the
peace, by pluralities ranging from 2!S te
1,070. The Republicans, en the ethor hand,
elocted twenty-two ofthe forty cotincllmen.
m
lllg Democratic Gains In Indiana.
Township elections-occurred throughout
Indiana en Monday. They always interest
politicians, bocause the result almost Infal
libly indicates which party will be success
ful in the fall. Twe years age the town
ship trustees wero almost equally dlvkled
between the Democratic and Republican
parties, ami In the presidential olectlon
that followed the elocfien was se very clese
that it required soveral days te determine
who had carried the state.
Returns from many counties Indlcate a
steady gain of trustoes. In Floyd county
the Democrats make a clean sweep. They
also gain trustees in Miami, Clurke, Do De
calur, Madisen and ethor counties, in In
dianapolis township two years age the Re
publican candidate bad a majority of 1,500.
The gains are already se large that this
majority will likely be wiped out, and the
Domecratlo trustees olectcd.
Democrats Win In llrldgepert.
The secret ballet was voted en Monday
for the first tlme In Bridgeport, Conn.
Mayer Rebert De Ferest, Democrat, was
ro-clected by a majority of about GOO evor
Civilian Feres, Republican, und the Demo Dome Deme
crats gain an aidermaii-at-large. Beth par
ties fuver the socret system of voting.
Hartferd Elects n Republican.
Henry C. Dwlght. Republican, was
elected mayor of Hartferd, Conn., en Mon
day. This was the first city olectlon under
the socret ballet law. The jmlls closed at
& o'clock, and the result was known bofero
! o'clock.

of 14 cars blew out from the siding en te
the main track about thrce mlles from here
with the brakes set. Quite a number of

and a number of persens hurt."
CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
They Extend Cordial flreettug te the
Democratic Administration.
Frem the New Era.
Theso who read Mayer Clark's Inaugural
will admit that he begins welt and prom prem
ises talr. The most notable and couimcnd ceuimcnd couimcnd
able expression of sentiment In It Is the
declaration that "the mayor of the city is
the organ of no political party and the sor ser
vaut of no sieclal class or cltlzens," and
that "his duties comprehond the Impartial
enforcement of all laws governing tbe mu
nicipality." On theso two prepositions
hang ail the law and commandments per
taining te healthy municipal life and woll well woll
belng. He don't essu me that he knows it
all," and therefore asks the forbearunce
and sympathy of his fellow cltlzens, re
gardless of party ulllllatiens. In the effort
te faithfully and satisfactorily dlscharge
the trust reposed in him. This he shall
have from the Arci Era and that portion of
his constituency itcuninlluouce.
The next notable suggestion of the Inau
gural Is In regard (e the equalization of the
valuation of preiwrty. The present mede
of assessment Is a burlosque upon equity
between man and man, und needs te be re
formed badly. One or the regrets that the
Intermuniclpal charter was declared uncon
stitutional was that it abolished the beard
of assessers who were charged with the
valuation of preperty In the entire city,
and were net (horeforo speclally Interested
hi any ene ward, whose citizens can olect
or detcut their assessor according as he
pleases or displeases them.
His views in regard te the stroets, the
water supply, ospeclally greater storage
capacity, sowuge and street lighting, the
pelice and what he will ex act from thorn,
will meet with goueral approval. But by
no means the least important topic te
which he calls attention Is the duly of
councils, acting under the authority of the
act of 1889, te enact un ordlnuiice that shall
?lve protection te our home inerchants
rem tiie "birds of passuge" who ceme
hore te soil goods represented as stock of
bankrupts, goods damaged by fire, etc.,
" who have all the advantages and none of
the responsibilities of our established busi
ness men," who contribute te the common
fund and te the general presperity of the
community. Thore is no reason why this
class of adventurers should net be taxed te
the extent or the law, both as an act or
Justice te our home inerchants and of pro
tection te the class of credulous customers
whom they have no scruples in cheatlng.
Frem the Exumlncr.
Te-day we onter upon a new city admin
istration se far as the mayoralty and pelice
force ure concerned. We wish the new
mayor Mr. Rebert Clark a successrul
administration. The intoresls of the city
are paramount te party supremacy and se,
whether Demecrat or Republican sits in
the oxecutlve chair, the ilrst consideration
should be the welfare ofthe municipality.
Hence, all geed men and citizens wish
Mr. Clark success. He must always re re ro
member that it was net his own weight,
influenceand personality that made him
mayor, but mainly treachery en the part
or would-be Republican leaders and their
henchmen. This city Is Republicau In
sentiment, and only a cut-threat policy en
election day can glve the Demecrats vic
tory. Mr. Clark Is the fortunate accident
or clrcumstances. Lightning will net
likely strike him again, und se he can
afford te vlew city affairs from n w Id e plat
form and net In the narrow ene of party
necessity or oxpedloncy. He must be
held rosjKMislble for his ftollce and the ox ex
erclse of veto pewer. If the former turn
out geed and tholatterwlse, all the better
for the city and the reputation of the
mayor.
In jiartlng with Mayer Edgerley It Is
but Just te commend his whole administra
tion. He has proven himself able, honest
and courteous. Oi.ce mero, then,
with pralseln all things for the outgoing
administration, we wolcemo the new with
geed wishes.

THE HOUSE PENSION DEBATE.
An Unsuccessful Eftert te Pass n Senate
Substitute.
Speaker Recti having dotermlned te fol fel
low strictly bis predecessor's example and
rocegnlzo no ene te inove the repeal of the
tobacco taxes, found It convenlont te con
ceal his ptirpose by precipitating a three
hours pension dobate In the Heuso en Mon
day, at the end of which the Heuso ser
vice pensien bill, which figured as Its
subject, was shelved liecause It falietl
te receive the two-thirds vete neccssary te
pass It, The Southern Republicans are
fighting mud evor the refusal of Reed te
recognize the motion te consider the re
peal orthe tobacco tax. Mostef them wero
elocted en pledges te procure this repeal.
They new see no presjicet of It (for the
previsions In the McKlnley bill de net
cever It), and se leek forward te the Indig
nation of their deceived constituents.
When the Heuso began proceedings It
was very ovldent that there would be a
bold attempt made te pass the Sotiate
pensien bill (with a substitute) under a
suspension of the rules. Consequently as
seen aa the Journal had been approved
Mr. Merrill made the motion. He brlefly
ex plained that the substitute provided a
servlce pensien of $8 a month te soldlers
who have reached the age of 02 years or
who are denondent. He thought that the
same prlnclple which had been applied te
the vetcrnimef the warnf 1812 ami the war
with Mexico should be applied te the
veterans ofthe war of 1801.
In answer te a question from Mr. Sayers
(Tex.), he stated that It was estimated that
the Sonate bill would require an annual
expenditure of f30,000,000, nnd the Heuso
substiiute would roqulre f.10,000,000 an
nually. Mr. Boothman (Ohie,) did net rise te
opneso the bill, but protested against
bringing n bill of this proportion and forc
ing its pussage through the Heuso without
any meniber having the right te odor
amotidmenls.
Mr. Springer (111.) said that he would
vete against the motion te suspend the
rules and pass the bill for the reason that
no proer consideration could be uiveu te
the measure hi the limited tlme allowed
for dobate. Thore was no opportunity te
ofter amendments. According te his In
formation, net a slngle Grand Army Pest
hed petitioned for the passage of this bill.
The soldlers had asked for a servlce pen
sion bill. The soldlers had asked for
bread, and the Heuso was giving them a
stone.
Mr. Turstiey (Me.) opposed the passage
of a bill of this magnitude under the gag
law. He would make known tils vlews en
the goueral tubject of pensien legislation
even If he wero cempelled te Interfere with
the tea parties which assembled hore en
Friday nights. He was onjiesed te Indis
criminate pension legislation and te any
inoasure which placed the brave soldier en
an equality with the skulking coward.
Mr. Craig (Pa.), Mr. Martin (Ind.), and
Mr. Lnne (III.), did net llke the manner of
proceeding, but would vete for a suspen
sion of the rules.
Mr. Yeder (O.) said that en Friday he
had sent a request te the spouker asking
for recognition te-day In erder te put en
its passage, after four bourn dobate, the
sorvice pension bill. He had a response te
that request In (his star chamber proceed
ing te-day. The gag law had been placed
en the frlondsef the sorvice pensien bill.
The Hepubl leans might gag the Heuso, but
they could net gag tbe soldiers of the coun
try. They knew who wero thelr frlends.
Mr. Cutcheen (Mich.) rldiculed the ldea
of gentlemen en the ether side of the
chamber posing as thdfrlends of the seldier,
chlded thorn with opposing goueral pensien
laws during the six years they had control
ofthe Heuso, and declared that overy such
law which bad been ouacled had been
euacted by Republican vetes and against
the opposition ofthe Democrats.
