A few nights since, John O'Rrine,

posed. At 12.:!') in the morning a ter
rific explosion took place in thesaloon,
blowing out one whole sine of the
building. The night watchman in the
depot ran over, and found the interior
of the saloon on lire. Hu culled up
some citizens and with their assistance
HUceeeded in extinguishing the flumes.
The theory of the explosion is that
Mr. O'Brien left a vent open from
which the gas escaped and tilled the
room. There was a fire in the stove
from which it Ignited. The damage
to the building will amount to about

Rob Hunter was abig burly regrn,

the only store and asked for credit. F.
M. Wright, the merchant, consented
to trust them for.a pair of shoes and a

was not a necessity. The bride elect
cried and Bob pleaded, but Wright was

Tlie Star Route Ring.
WHY THE GOVERNMENT FAILED TO
CONVICT IN THE TRIAL AT LINCOLN.
Special Denpntch to The Press.
Washington, Feb. 19. It has al
ready been announced that the Gov
ernment has not succeeded in the con
spiracy case recently on trial at Lin
coln, Neb-, but the circumstances have
not been fully explained. There were
several costly ring routes extending
from Deadwood to the l ail road North
South and East. The route from Bis
marck to Deadwood, where the pay
has been enormously Increased, was
entirely discontinued by Mr. James.
The route from Cheyenne to Dead
wood was iu the hands fft tlie Salis
bury's in the town terms from 1874 to
1882, and the pay was extravagantly
raised. It was believed that the ex
pedited time on the route from Sidney
to Deadwood was not made and that
the Balisburys were receiving heavy
pay for services not preformed. In
order to succeed in their attempts to
defraud the Government the contrac
tors must have been aided by the post
masters at Deadwood nndSidncy, who
were required to forward to Wash
ington a record of departureaud arrival.
Evidence was not secured on which the
Qovernmeutcould proceed until Sol
omon Star, the Postmaster at Dead
wood, made a full confession loan of
ficer of tho department. After mak
ing this confession Staralmconded.and
it is said that the Government has
been unable to find him. The Gov
ernment also relied upon the Postmas
ter or Deputy Postmaster at Sidney,
one Ciarey, who was indicated as one
of the contractors, and who had des
cribe the methods that had been used
by him aud the stagemen before the
Grand Jury at Omaha in December.
With Ciarey were Indicted Edward
Corbin and T. C. hidings, the mana
gers of the route, employees of the
Salisbury. These three were charged
with conspiracy, and in the absence of
Solomon Star the Government relied
upon Ciarey until the beginning of
tlie trial. When Ciarey was placed on
the stand and a-d;ed to ident.'y tlie
false reports from the Sidney Post'
Ollice which he had made for the be
nefit of the Salisburys, he faltered, and
when told he need not make any an
swer that would criminate himself, he
refused to testify. The Government
counsel endeavored, by exhaustive ar
gument, to lead tlie Court to compel
the witness to answer, but the judge
ruled in favor of Ciarey. Tlie counsel
for the Government thereupon decided
that they would proceed no further in
tlie case of conspiracy, but would pros
ecute Ciarey, hidings aud Corbin on
the indictments, so far as they relate
to the making of false rejsirt. These
cases were continued to the May term
of the court. It U reported that Ciarey
had agreed to testify for the Govern
ment, and hail given no notice that he
would break his word until he look
his place ns a witness. At tlie moment
the counsel for the other defendants
announced they appeared to defend
him also it appeared that he had fallen
iu the hands of the ring. The des
patches sent East in regard to the trial
seem to have been written by the ring's
counsel. The truth is that by the con
fession of Star and Ciarey the whole
fraudulent conspiracy is disclosed, and
although the guilt of the accused was
made clear the Government failed be
cause one of the postmasters hail run
away, and the other, nt the hist mo
ment, fell into tlie hands of the ring
and refused to repeat the confessions
of his guilt which he had already
made to a Commissioner and tlie
Grand Jury which indicated him.

Every woman who has been
obliged to spend half a day several
times during the winter, cleaning the
micas in her coal stoves, usually by
taking them out and washing them in
soapsuds, will rejoice to know that
there is no need to take them ont or
let the fire burn very low, in order to
do it successfully. Take a little vine
gar and water and wash the mica
carefully with a soft cloth. Tbe acid
removes all stains, and If a little pains
is taken to throughly clean the corn
ers and wipe them dry, the mica will
look as good as hew. If the stove is
very hot, tie the cloth to a stick and so
escape the danger of burning yourself.

The Rlohburg Tragedies.
M'CARTHY DOOMED TO DEATH .
WIPrLH SENTENCED TO NINETEEN
YEARS AND SIX MONTHS IMPRIS-,
ONMENT. ..
From the McKenn Miner.
Tlie second chapter 1 the tragedy
which ended In the death of Patrick
Markey at Rlchburg on the 19th of
November last, came to an end oh
Friday last, when Judge Daniels pro
nounced the dread sentence of death
upon the murderer, John McCarthy.
The trial lasted four days, and the
evidence given proved it to be A de
liberate and cold-blooded ; "murder.
The defence did not adopt the Insanity
plea, but made an effort to lessen the
gravity of the crime by the introduc
tion of two witiie'ses named Ham
mond and Hogun, of Tarport, who
swore they saw a knife in Markey's
hand nt the time McCarthy kllied
him and that the murdered man en
deavored to stab McCarthy. Ham
mond produced a knife iu court wltR'
Markey's Initials on it, l?ut the testi
mony of these two witnesses had no
weight, as this version of the nffuir
was not heard of before the appear
ance of these two men iu the court
room at Angelica, and they were not
seen or heard of at cither the Coron
er's inquest or the preliminary exam
ination. For tlie prosecution, Mr.
Rude dwelt strongly upon the im
probability of their evidence, nnd the
jury were evidently of the same opin
ion, notwithstanding the earnest and
eloquent appeal of Mr Bemls for the
defense, as after forty minutes deliber
ation they returned a verdict of "Mur
der in tire first degree."
On Friday morning at 0 o'clock
Judge Daniels pronounced sentence
upon the prisoner, fixing the date of
his execution for Friday, 24th of
March next. When receiving his
sentence, McCarthy showed very little
nervousness, his face betraying no
emotion. At the concluding sentence,
"May God have mercy on your soul,"
he said '! have been showed very
little here " Since his sentence he is
said to have ate and slept well and
seems to feel indifferent as to his fate.
On Thursday night, after the con
clusion of the McCarthy trial, Edwin
M. Whipple was arranged for the
shooting of George itr Rfchbnrg on
tlie 1st of December last. At-the ad
vice of his counsel he plead guilty to
manslaughter in the first degree, the
District Attorney 'having signified a
willingness to accept such a plea. In
order to enable the court to arrive at a
correct conclusion as to the proper sen
tence to pronounce,' the evidence of
the murdered man's brother was read
with others who were, witnesses of the
affair. Whipple was also put upon
the stand aud he gave his version of
the art'air. It wus brought out that
he had been a gallunt soldier aud
received four wounds in different
battles during tlie rebellion. One ball
In the shoulder deprived him of the
use of his right arm for which ho re
ceived a pension. He received a
Brevet Lieutenant's commission in
the regular army for his gallant and
meritorious conduct while in battle.
He was brought into court for sentence
Friday morning and sentenced to
nineteen years and six niontns con
finement at hard labor in the peniten
tiary at Auburn, N. Y. In sentencing
the prisoner Judge Daniels called at
tention to the danger, there was in a
man addicted to liquor carrying fire
arms, and in alluding to the bad habits
the prisoner had formed since leaving
the army, said that the court was of
the impression that if he should de
velop a character which showed an
intention of breaking oil from his
previous habits the Slate might in
lime be disposed to shorten his term
of imprisonment.
Williamsport G. & .Counter
feiters never try to imitate the bills of
a broken bank. So with bad men who
enter the church nnd become officious;
they do so becuse the better class recog
nize virtue and religious principles.
If tho church was not an element
wherein good influences thrived, bad
characters would not seek its power
and protection while they stealthily
worked dishonest practices. The papers
say much about "pious frauds," now
and then reflecting upon Christianity,
because certain defaulters and seducers
occupied high positions in the church.
If such men after their hypocrisy and
sinful nets, were encouraged and pro
tected by Christian people, there would
be some ground to cast reflections. As
It is, however, they arc disconnected
from the organization and not recog
nized. It is, therefore, a false reflection
from the public to insinuate that the
church isguilty of individual acts before
such acts are brought to light. There
are "pious frauds" as well as counter
feit dollars, and there will be as long
as a true church or bank exists. Sucli
newspaper critics may influence the
superficial and inconsiderate, but can
not impress the thoughtful and consid
erate. The best religious organizations
have persons opeu to criticism, and
will have so long as imperfect men
exist, which will be until the ushering
iu of a new era.
