Ten Years for Kobbery. Seranton, Pa., April 18. This after uoou in the Luzerne county Court, at Wilkesbarre; Judge Harding sen tenced John Mahori to ten years soli tary confinement in the eastern peni tentiary t.r having broken into the dwelling of an old invalid named Daniel Gardner at a place called Ran som and beaten aud robbed him. It is only a few days ago that Mahon, while awaiting trial in the county prison, made one of the most daring escapes ou record. The judge, in passing sentence, dwelt iu evident as tonishment on this fact. Mahou broke from bis cell f6 tho flue and crawled throuh that a height of 100 teet, having at one place to pass through a space nine inches iu diame ter. He said to-day that while drug ging himself through the fine he was frequently overcome by foul air uud feared he would have to give up the attempt, but rallied afterward and came out Miecessfully. He escaped from the prison walls by lowering hims'Mf -S-ith a rope tk'a't kty close1 at lintid, having been provided to hang Campbell, who has since been re spited. Mahon was recaptured at Pittston. Tho scene at his trial to day was very affecting. The mau into whose house he broke had to be carried into court On a chair to give his testimony. Ho is eighty-two years of age and has lived all his life in this neighborhood. Tho prisoner is only twenty-four years old. The first litigant in America has at last gained her case, and the final de cision of Judge Billings makes Mrs. Myra Clnrk Uaiues the richest woman in America. It Is a rich prize, but it has cost the labor of a life. Foity three years ago Mrs. Gaines began her attempt to recover the property left her by her father, the will made in lfcl3 having been destroyed after his death by interested parlies. This s6on became tlie aim of her life, and she carried the case through every court in the State and seven times before the United States Supremo Court, ex pending all her own fortune and that of her two husbands, and when unable longer to fee a lawyer pleading her own case in court. This decision is the last step in the longroad to justice, but Mrs. Gaines will be even older than she is now before she is put in possession of all that the court now declares to be ev- Philadelphia 2'itncn The will of the Baron de II. R., who died last month iu Paris, says: "I leave all my fortune, consisting of 800,000 francs, to the bold man who will, in presence of a notary and another witness, administer to my wife fifty blows with a stick. In case no one should fulfill these conditions, I devise my property to the state for charitable uses. In order to avoid trickery on tlie part of my eventual heir, I declare the legacy void in case he should expouso my wife." This will be contested by the Baroness as the work of a lunatic, although Jier husband was of apparently sound niiud on making it. Representatives from different work ingmen's associations, in the western portion of the state have gone into a movement to establish a People's party. It is the avowed intention of those interested in the formation of a new political organization to serve their connection with the old parties and to put an entire ticket in the field next fall. Aitpiwed Pur Witii THIS EASTERN DITFICULTT NOT LIKELY TO MAKE A MARKET FOR OL'K CONDEMNED ARMS. Wosblrigton, April 17. At the be ginning of the present, difficulties be tween Russia and Turkey, it Was the general opinion ambng many of our army officers that the trouble wou:d create a market for ordnance supplies, arms, aud ether Implements of war fare, ahd that the United 6tatea would be enabled to dispose of the vast amount of unserviceable goods of. that character now stored in ourai" senals arid fof tiflcatlons ; but a careful examination 6'f the subject by promi nent officers of the Ordnance Depart ment, leads to the belief that there will be no demand upon out country for thesfe gobds, for the reason that England, Germnhy and France have vast ouurit'lies oT condemned arms for sale. It has ftisb been ascertained that Turkey is much better supplied with arms thau was at first supposed, she having received over three hundred thousand stand of arms from the Providence Tool Company, of Provi dence, R. I., Within the past two years, under a contract ttfarte with that company to furnish half a million Peabody guns' a breech-loading rifle similar to the Martin-Henry rifle used in England. These rifles are still be ing manufactured for and delivered to the Turkish Government, several offi cers Of Which have been in this country for sumo months past, in specting the arms and superintending their manufacture. The Turks also have contracts with varibus firms in this country for 200,000,000 rounds of metallic cartridges, and for a large number of cartridge cases, which are now being made at Bridgeport and New Haven, Connecticut, aud other places. That Government is also well supplied with breech-loading steel guns for field service; atid it is not probable that there will be any great demand for arms of obsolete patterns upon th'fs or any other country. Rus. sia has also received a good supply of arms from this country, having had contracts With Smith & Wesson, Colt, and other manufacturers. These con tracts were for revolvers and breech loading rifles, a large number of which have been delivered. We have for sale about 400,000 of the new Springfield muzzle-loading rifle, and a large number of repaired breech loaders, besides ordnance asd ord nance supplies 6f every description,' left from the late civil war. Indian Surrender. DULL KNIFE'S VILLAGE AT LAST STARVED OUT. Camp Robinson, Neb;, April 21. Eighty lodges of Cheyennes under Dull KSife and Standing Elk surren-f dered to General Crook at eleven a. m.' to-day. The village comprises about 550 persons, 83 of whonl are fighting men. They turned in 680 ponies," sixty guns about thirty pistols. They are completely destitute of all tho necessaries of life, having lost every thing when their village was de stroyed in November last. They have no lodges, but simple shelters of old canvas and skins, very few blankets' and robes aud no cooking utensils Many are still Buffering front frozen limbs. It is surprising that they' have been able to hold out bo long un der these circumstances, and their do ing so proves the fortitude of the American . Indian under privation and hardship. Th!s makes about 780 Cheyennes who have surrendered hero since the 1st of January. Latest ad vices represents Crazy Horse still on the way to this agency. Famine in Japan. Yokohama, March 30.
