The only instance of the Congressional slate being broken occurred M( nday, when li?v. .Mill burn, the blind preacher and chaplain of the former ConjrresH, wa elected ever the Republican caucus nominee. The won! growers of Texas have sent a delegation to Wahhingtun to look after their interest. It may be safely assumed that they are not rampant advocates of fre trade intwool, nor ardent champions of Mills' tariff bill. A (;..! many so-called Republican st-at'-sirirn in Ohio are crawling from un der cover to deny that they were disU-yal to Foraker in the hist campaign. That's all right, gentlemen, the Republicans of other States have their own opinions. The year 1S'.i w ill be long remembered for its calamities from flood and fire. The losses of the year will f ot np many mil lions in property and thousands of lives. It wil' le remembered lieeause of Johns town, Seattle, Spokane Tal!.", Lynn and Iton.

If it can Ix-at the Hummer of 1RS; Noah's flood w ill be in danger of losing its prominent place in history lis the only one of its kind. Tun IkMiiocnitic press is just now busy trying to show by the votes at the recent elect iot a in Ohio and Iowa that the wool prowers have suddenly become infatu nted with the idea of 'free wool." There is more wool covering democratic ryes than was around at the late elec I ions. RoMVEix P. Fi.owr.it wants to elect the postmasters. Roswell was down South attending the .lackson convention and no doubt Fympathizcs w ith his fellow Iw-mocruts of that section w hocannot en dure the thought that their mail should le handled by Republicans. Roswell is to le pitied. It is unfortunate for him and his kind that the Icmocr.it8 are in the minoritv. The Illinois Supreme Court lias follow ed the New York Courts in deciding pg.iinst the legality of trusts on the ground that their operations are against public jwlicy and grow out of an exercise of power not conferred upon corporations w hose stock is surrendered to trust man agement. The law is slow, but it will eventually grind the life out of these new-fangled monopolies. IIostox lias indulged in a good many large fires. Her first great tire was in Novemlier, ITfi, when f irty-six bouses were destroyed. In the fire of ir7'. eight dwellings and eighty warehouses were destroyed. The Jire of 171 1 burned iOO Wilding, and that of I'M destroyed 3T tmildings. The great fire of November, 172, d est roved over SOO building, and liurned over a district of (15 acres. Tux mil lions of workingmen and work ing omen in this country have reason to le thankful that a Republican adminis tration is in control of affairs at Wash ington, ami that a Republican majority is to sit in both halls of Congress. With the representatives of the party that is ledged to protect American labor in ower, we can all feci sure that there will be no tariff smashing and no lower ing of wage through governmental ec (ion during the next three years and a halt As an illustration rf the nuignitude of the work of taking the eleventh census it is only necessary to mention the fact that it is estimated there will beemploy M in taking the cenMia 42,000 enumera tors, 2,tK0 clerks, from 800 to 000 special ngetits, 17.) supervisors: and 2") exp?rts. The number of published volumes will robably exceed those of the tenth cen sus.

Jr., his most forcnidaOle competitor, bad tb honor of milking li)e choice unanimous. The result of the great contest was receiv ed with demons! rations of delight by those who have from the first tougln to place the Portland boy in the ciiair. The Empire Stat delegation, which voted to a man for the Maine giant, and which, under the ad mirable leadership of James J. Beldin, baa lor months been laboring for Mr. Reed s uccew, wai the recipient of the heartiest congratulations from toe moment the battle was won. CATDtBIKU FOB THE FEAT. Hours before high noon, for which time the caucus had been called, the lobbies of the House were jammed with visitors who hoped to get a peep at what was comiDg. Tli Boor of the Hall of Representati ves was early thronged with Congressmen, he som bre garments of the notional legislators mak ing a strong contrast with the new emerald carpet which was spread out beneath them. Thomas B. Kecd, confident and happy, ! and accompanied by HenrxJ'-abbott Lodge and Thomas M. Payne, reached the Caj.iiol just afier 10 o'clock, and pitched his tent right in the ball itself. Major McKinley, arreneand santruine, with his alert lieuten ants. Major Butterworth, tien. I'.rosvenor. and Judge Thompson, soon after arrived aud established his 'headquarters in the River and Harbor Committee rooms. I'ucle Joe Cannon and General Henderson bunked to gether in the Appropriations Onimittee room, while Julius Oesar Burrows marshal ed his forevs in the council chamber of the Committee on Naval Affairs. CAM'! DATES COCKTIKO 50i-KS. The nex two hours were consumed in counting noses. Then the Representatives trooped into the star chamber, the doors were closed with a bang, and a few moments after noon the caucus began. Cencral T. J. Henderson, of Illinois, was fpecdily chosen chairman, an a-t which tickled much the suprter of Cannon. Messrs. McComas of Man land and Wallace of New York were made secretaries. Then Major Butterworth sprang up from beside the "little Napoleon" and moved that the ballot for Sjieaker proceed, and that the ballot be an open one. The McKinleyiies bad tveeived an intima tion that the R'ed people deired a secret ballot, and concluded that it was just what tliey did not want and would not have. The roll disclosed the surprising fact that no less than ICo of the Republicans were in their seats. Wilber, of New York, had been detained at home by illness, while Coleman of Louisiana, and McOormicfc, of Pennsylva nia, were also absent. All three had pledged themselves to Reed, and had they been present be might have been nominated on the first ballot. AS Ol-rS FALLOT CHOSEN. Hermann, of Oregon, arrived just in time to cast his vote for the Maine statesman on second ballot. The open-ballot system was approved with scarcely a dissenting voice. Then the roll call was repeated, each mem ber ribing in his seat and announcing his preference for Speaker, (ieorge K. Adams, of Illinois, was the first on the list, to shout in deep, ronm! tones, "Joseph 0. Cannon," and as the call proceeded Uncle Joe got scat tering votes from West to South, which brought his total up to twenty-two, or four teen lesi than he had claimed the nijrht be fore. His own Stale stood by him nobly, giving its thirteen all it had to its favor ite. Burrows held his own in Michigan, get ting its nine votes and one (Bowden) from Virginia. Henderson wa faithfully cham pioned by his ten lowana. Honsbrougb, Picklerand Gifford, from the new States, heljieil him to three more, while the South contributed enough to make his total six teen. The ballot, so far as the leading can didates Wire concerned, was a surprise, not to the Reed people, but to the McKinleyites. SHIN..INH tKTO LIKE roS BEtll. The Portland favorite bad been conceded 72, but during the morning six more bad jumped into the Reed oorral, making his to tal 7S, or but live le than a majority. New Kngland gave him SI. As New York swung into line and planked down her solid IS the Reed men could not suppress a cheer. Penn sylvania added 15, while little New Jersey contributed two of her four to his column. Wisconsin sent R!ed stock away up again by seven points, much to the chagrin of the Westerners, while scattering votes from the Nortbwt and Pacilic slope, together with three from the South, placed the Maine boy away beyong the limit conceded him by his opponents. Whereas McKiuley s adhnients bad stoutly asserted that he would have at least .V votes, he fell short of it by no less than Pi. Ohio stood gallantly by him and heled him to her whole ltj. Pennsylvania gave him five aud the other IS making a total of 39 came in ones and twos from the West and South. BEEI AX EASY WIXSKR OX EOOM. The story of the second ballot i9 soon told. Reed needed but five votes to capture the nomination. Calbertson, of Pennsylvania, was the first and only one of MiKinley's Keystone State friends to desert tlie Otiioau. Hambrough Picklerand iiifrd from the new States kissed Henderson good by and enlisted with the K -ed army. LyDn, of Min nesota, also gave his vote to Reed. BiTgen, of New York, who bail voted on the previous ballot for Cannon, also surren dered, and with the vote of Herman, of Or egon, the Maine statesman's total was sent away up to S , or one more than a majority. As soon as il became apparent that Reed had secured a victory Major MeKiniey aiose and in a felicitous speech moved that the nomination lie made nr.auim mi. The prop osition was approved with a who ip. Mr. Reed, in returning gratitude for the honor con lerred, spoke at leng;n in a happy style, bis address being punctured with sp pis use. REED IS CnXOKESS. How Tom Reed awoke one day or, rather read the newsers one morning to find himself famous is pretty generally known Eighteen wnidadid it. Not long after having taken his seat in Congress be waa making a little speech when some member interrupt ed him bv an annoying question. Reed answered him ; then, in bis high, nasal tones, drawled out : "And now, having embalmed that fiy in the liquid amber of my remarks, I will go on again. This shaft of wit hit the newspaporial bnll'a eye, aud from that time Tom Reed's name was a familiar one throughout the country. Mr. Reed in bis domestic relations is sig nally blest. His wife fnee Susan Merrill of Centre Harbor, Me.) is a well-read, cultivat ed, refined lady, of mediam height, dark hair and ey is, possesses fine conversational powers aud ia socially charging. She is popular with the ladies of Washing ton, where for tlie twelve years of her hus band's Congressional life she has passed her minters. Tom Reed has sharp, apt, pungent wit ; and this is not all, for behind his wit are brains, and plenty of them. His high stand ing Is no nnlt of accident or witty trickery, but is the logical sequence of fine Intellectual gifts srp l(mentd by hard study and in dtfatigable work ; and yet be lacks tlie arts and finest cf the trained diplomat or politi cian. He is earnest, blunt, straightforward, and. shall I say it? willful. Once having made op his mind to a certain line of action he clings to it with dcgg.d tenacity. This trait has more tfian on, r.arly lost bim hii Congressional election. lie knoaa it, bnt nevertheless is bound to do his on think- i ii g and hi o n acting, aJI the some. Jt is 1 not ii bis nature to be all things to ad msn. But whelli- r on the tloor of the House, or in Ike Speaker's t hair. Hon. Thomas B. Reed u. inu.iltctusl'y as well as physically, a big man.

The tirsl vote for spiaker stood: Reed, 78; McKinley, 38; Cannon, 2.': Borrows, 10; Henderson, 16. The second ballot resulted: Reed, W McKinley, SG; Caunoo, R; Burrows, 15; Henderson, 0. For clerk the first ballot resulted : Mc Pberson, 116 ; Carson, 39. Messrs. Reeds nd McPberson were declared the duly elected nominees of the party. Pennsylvania gave Reed 15 votes on the first' and 10 on the aecond ballot, Culbertson of Erie, changing to Reed. The McKinley men were Keller, Harmer, Wright, Oborue and Scull. O'Neill was the only one of Carson's Pennsylvania friends who voted for McPherson. He said lie gave Carson the go-by because he allow ed himself to be interviewed so extensively on Senator yuay s duplicity. Adams was elected doorxeeper by one ma jority over Wheat. Adams represents the South. Ex -Representative 11 omesol lows, was easily elected sergeant at arms. as was Ilex. Mr. Ramsdell as chaplain. SOLDIERS' RIGHTS. An Appeal Issued by the Service Pension Association. IsniAKAPOLis, Isn., December 2. As Presi dent of the Service Pension Association of the I'nited Slates, Governor Alvin P. Hovey has ifsued an address entitled: ' Soldiers' Rights An appeal to the Loyal People of the Cnited Slates and Tueir Represei itatives in Congress." The first portion of the address explains that the Service Pension Association doe not mean to interfere with the system of disability pensions now in operation, but aski, independent of it, a pension for every mau who served i) days or more in the I'nkin army. This is not meant to be only for the support of the survivors, but for a mark of honor, something as the Victoria cross and the French cordon of Honor. The address says : "T ie soldiers ot the revolution, of the war of 1H12 15, with Mexi co, with all our Indian wars, were generous ly given lands by millions of acres, aud pen sions bsve been refuse.!, with billions of acres of public domain and a surplus in our treasuiy that tbeingenuity of our statesmen has been unable to exhaust." Again it says : "We are flippantly told that our pension laws are ample and the, imM beneficent in the world, and that no ex-soldier has the right to find the least fault with the gener osity and the paternal care of our Govern ment' The final paragraph of the address is as follows: "Send no representatives to Con gress who will not honestly and earnestly support your just claims and demands. Send no one who is so siupid, blind or prej udiced th.it be cannot sec and understand them, and be sure you send no one who will not contend for your honor and your rights with as much loyalty and zeal as you fought for the preservation of the t'nion ; and von should send neither laggards nor cowards for your representatives, for they do not be long to your rank. The disloyal will howl for every dollar the Government may pay you, and a iare part of a subsidized press will teem with articles of abuse against your advocates and your rights. Stand firm, close your ranks and meet the charge of your enemies sir-iin, and though you may only have a few short hours of your furlough of life, you will once more be victorious and conquer." An Qrder Issued by Ceneral Raum. The following order has been promulgated from the pension ollice : DF.rETMKNT or the I.vTEKioa, Bureau of Pensions, Washington. I). C, Nov. 25, 1S.S!I. Order 118. Great care must be exercised in the rejection of applications for pension. No cise should be rejected until every avail able source of information has been exam ined, unless the objection be clearly UKn legal points. All letters rejecting claims shall be brought to the deck of the commis sioner for signature. No rejected claim will be reopened, except upjn new and material evidence going to the caus of rejection. The deputy commissio'iers will have juris diction to reopen claims in the divisions re spectively assigned to their charge. In all ci"s where evidence is filed for the reopen ing of cases, the heads of adjudicating di visions will, at the proper time, cause to be prejiared a brief statement of the facts on slips for the action of the deputy commis sioner, who shall note his action thereon, whereupon the claimant shall immediately be informed by letter of the action of the ollice Geeks B. Rack, Commissioner. Butler, of South Carolina, Sit Down. From tlie Boston Traveller. Butler, of South Carolina, now in the United Slates Senate, is an example of what has come to be known as Southern impu dence. This phase of Southern character is displayed in the sentiment that the South erner is above criticism. Butler has lately lectured the country for what he is pleased to state as asersion of the Confederate sol dier in calling him a traitor to the flag and a rebel agiinst the Vnited States Govern ment. In just what terms Butler would have us speak of those who fired on the flag and sought for four years to break up the government we are not informed. It would be well for Butler to remember that lectur ing the loyal people is not the forte of a man whose indece nt violation of constitutional obligations since the war outdid bis unholy treason in the war. The less we have of Butler the better for the South. Keep Your Eye on Scott. From the Pittsburgh Commercial tiwette. Tbe record that Wiiiiain L. Scott has, and thc'additioiis be makes toil from time to time, must not be forgotten. Evidence from most every county in the Slate points to bis serious Intention of contesting for the Sena torship now held by Cameron in 1WU. Scott is a desperate fighter, and has unlimited means at bis nommand. and the Republicans should see to it that their nominations for the next Legislature are tlie very best. He could not be elected to any important office if the people voted, but if lie should roil bis big barrel into the mid.it of a corrupt legis lature the prospects Would not be bad for the great labor and protection State of the Union having to represent it in the Senate one of the most dangeruns enemies of labor and protection that the country has pro duced. Terrible Explosion. Oil City, Novemlier 30. Six thousand pounds of nitro glycerine belonging to the Torpedo Company, of Warren, were being unloaded Irons a boat a mile below Oil City to dsy. and taken to a branch magazine, two miles from the river. Twenty-four hundred pounds bad been removed, wheuat 2 o'clock this afternoon a terrific explosion uocurred, shaking tlie whole city and- breaking the window in all parts of the town. Tbe mangled remain of Jjmc Fisher and FJward Huffman, both sous of wid iwi, residing south of Oil City, were found near the scene of the explosion. Two guns were found in the vicinity, belonging to boys who were out bunting, and who were last seen shooting at a mark near tbe location of the glycerine, it is supposed that both were kilK-d. Buildings ia the vicinity were badly wrecked. Wm. Faira' large ice bouses, near the boat, were blown 300 feet inte Iks air. Total damage o.noo to 10,0u0, AWFUL SCENt AT A FIRE. Seven hlsn Killed and Nin Injured tn Minneapolis. Minneapolis, Dec 1. Seven human lives and ifciuf.uuo wonh of property was sacrificed last night by u fire that originated in the rooms of the Union League, on the third fl.or of tho Minneapolis TrOmius building, llie fire was discovered shortly after ten o'clock by a district messenger, and almost before an alarm could be turned in every door and window of the immense seven story building was belching fire and smoke. Thre were upward of 80 men, including tbe editorial steff and a force of compositors, at ' work on the seventh Boor, and these were Intied in like sheep by ths sheets of flsuie that separated thenij.from the elevator and stairway. ...... As soon as possible t he fi rc depart tuent gat a ladder up to the sixth floor, and from there thirty or forty men were taken out of the building. Those who were on ths roof dared not descend, and several jumped to the roofs of adjoining buildings and escaped with a few bruises. OM I BAKBOWIKO SCKN'CS. Dr. Olson, President of the University of Dakota, seeing all means of escape cut off, essayed to jump and slipped and fell to the edge of the window on the sixth story and from there to the ground. He was instantly killed. j J. F. Igoe, night operator for the Associa ted Press, stuck to bis post till it wai too late to escape. He was frightfully burned about tbe head, and in bis agony, jumped from the burning building and was killed. Agent Miles, of the Associated Press, whose home is in Detroit, Michigan, at tempted to follow Ltoe, but fell back into the crater of lianies and was burned to a j crisp. Milton A. Pickett, a reporter for the Pio neer Pre$, whose office was in the Tribune building, was caught, with a companion named Pierce, on the stairway and there they were roasted to death and subsequently crushed to a pulp by falling timbers. While the tire was at its height, J. Mc- Cutcheon appeared in one of the windows of the composing room and jumped into a net held by tbe firemen below. The weight of bis body carried the net to the stone lave ment and he died in a few moments after be ing picked up. A few minutes after be had jumped anoth er of the printers appeared at the window on the opiwsite side of the room. He ap peared crazed by fright, and, instead of waiting for a ladder which was being raised, pulled a revolver and, placing the muzzle to his head, fired. The report was heard in the street and the man was seen to drop to the floor. His name could not be learned. Meanwhile, Charles A. Smith, the elevator mau Kii the night service, did heroic work in the interior of the building. He was a new man, having only been in the place since the first of the week. After the fire started he made five trips (the last when tbe shaft was actually on lire) and saved a num ber of people. Smith is certain that more people were burned than have been reported. He says that about five minutes before the fire was discovered he carried a lady to tbe sixth tloor. She asked for the editorial rooms of tlie Pluttetr Pi ta, which were in the same building. He did not take her back in the elevator, aud he ia sure she could not have gone down the stairway. Smith also says that a tall young man with a black moustache shot himself on tbe seventh floor, near the composing room door. Smith was up on bis hist trip and called to the young man to come into the el evator, but he seemed dazed bv the heat and smoke and deliberately drew a revolver and fired at bis own head, falling dead. Just be fore be fired the shot he exclaimed : "My God! My wife and ;" then the bullet did its work. A FIERCE FIRE IN BOSTON. Buildings Covering two Acrea Burned-Loss, $5,000,000. RuSTO. Nov. 28. Tbe first general alarm sent out in liostin since the big fire of H72 was rung this morning for a tire which started in the building occupied by Brown, Durrell Si Co., oil Bedford street, and which proved to be iu a twinkling more than the first, second and third detachments could readily handle. The loss by flims and by damage from water is estimated to-night at $j,0UO,UU0. Tbe first alarm was soundjd at 3:15, aud tbe building in wbieh tbe fire started, al ways thought to be fireproof, burned like a tinder box, and the H lines rose hundreds ol feel into the air. Second and third alarms were rung iu, aud at there was issued a general alarm, which brought apratus from Cambridge, S imerville and Ciieisea. TWO ACaKS UCSKKU ocr. The fire raed for six hours aud the burn ed district extended over tivoaces of ground which was covered wiih structures of the best class. Tbe fire was first seen bursting from the top of the Brown building, at Bed ford and Kingston streets. It was over the elevator shaft and probably originated in the shaft. The blaze was discovered by a letter carrier, who notified a policeman. The ottioer turned in the alarm at the same box from which the great fire of l.i'J was sound ed. The latter tire started at Kingston and Sumner streets. Fourteeu firemen were knojked down in Kingston street by fragmeuts of a falling wall but all escaped ser ous injury. About a dozen firemen aud policemen' are at the hospitals su Ik-ring from lacerations, bruises aud broken limb. The insurance coiUjiiii ies will lose ai much by to d iy's fire as they bave received ia premiums oil li ton prop erty for the entire year. Toeir losses iu 1889 had been unusually heavy before this final misfortune came. Should Drunkenness be Punished? The Philadelphia Times in answer to tbe above question says : "The free and exhaus tive discussion of tbe evils of drunkenness during the last few years has developed a searching inquiry into the question of treat ing drunkenness as a crime against society. "Most o( the egitation for public sobriety bas been directed ag lints tbe keepers of ho tels and saloons as if they were the sole criminals, while the drunkard who willfully brutalises himself has been treated as the iu noiciit victim ofthe rum seller. "Now, the question of sternly punishing drunkenness as a crime is very generally discussed, and with a strong tendency ot public sentiment to demand the recognition of drunkenness as a crime for which the drunkard is responsible, and punish him with such severity as would be likely to repress this very common vice. "It is simply the sickliest of sentimentali ty to treat tbe drunkard as tbe helpless vic tim of the rumseller. He is tempted, of course, by the gilded saloon and by social customs to cultivate and gratify his appetite for intoxicating drinks; but who that com mits crime is not tempted? "The State of Minnesota has already clear ly defined the crime of drunkenness by statute with severe penalties for every viola tion of sobriety as a violation of law, and the sooner that like laws are enacted in all the 8tates of the Union, tbe sooner will the most practical and the most just methods be adopted to suppress one of our commonest and moat demoralizing crimes." A Cyclcne In the South. Chalott, N. C, November 29. A very destructive cyclone passed over a portion of Bufbrd county yesterday, doing great dam age. Houses were blown down and trees torn up by the roots. The residence of a farmer near Washington, tbe county seat, was blown to atoms and the entire family, consisting of father, mother and four chil dren were killed instantly. Tbe grown daughter was to have been married to day, and all preparations bad been made to cele brate the bappy event A factory near Washington was blown down and two people killed, while a dosco others received bad injuries. Miss Mallie Cheve, the pretty daughter of a farmer, was caught up on the cyclone and carried away upon the bosom of the mad wind. Her body has not yet been found. Reports so far are toy a tstrr, trd it ! itapcuible to obtain names of all killed. Deserted Hia Wife and Child. I.npiasa, Pa., Nov. 2".!. The tongues of the good old U'woiix of this ipiiet village were Set hiisy wagging to-day by the news thai A. L. Johnston, who lives near here, had eloped wiiu the pretty young wife of Sherman Sea nor, of South Mahoning township. The elopement occurred two we-ks ago, but the families of both parties, who are counted among the best families in the county, have kept tbe matter so secret that it did not leak out till to-day. ' The conple were traced to SalUhurg and Johnstown, and are now sup posed to be iu Cincinnati. A. .. Johnston is a brother of J. f.

After being out tbree hours the jury in the trial of James Neff, for the murder of William McCausland this afternoon brought iu a verdict of not guilty. The prisoner was at once discharg ed from custody. He w.is very pale but entirely composed while wailing for the verdict. Tbe actjuittal of Nelf is likely to prolong this now celebrated case a year or two more. Neff was convicted iu Greene county, but secured a new trial, and then, upon the al legation that public sentiment was such that a fair trial was impartial in Greene, the case was removed to Washington. William McCausland, an Allegheny City stock dealer, was murdered for the purpose of robbery along the river in Greene county two years ago last September. Zach Taylor and George Clark are now under sentence of death for the crime and will shortly be hanged. Several others have been tried for complicity iu the murder. The authorities of Greene county bave had Jacob Penning ton employed as an agent to secure testi mony bearing upon the case for almost two years past and nearly every terra of court during that period bas been marked by the trial of one of the accused or argument of the law points involved. The defendants belong to what is known as the Clark and Taylor crowd, a clannish set of backwoods people, who have fought the prosecution with a determination rarely witnessed. The Knot Slipped. Grrtwi, Oxt.. Novemh;r 2T. Wm. H. Harvey, who in March last murdered his wife and two daughters, was hanged at 8 o'clock this morning. The execution was one of the worst pieces of bungling ever witnessed. The weight which lifted the body was not heavy enough, and the scaffold was not high enough to give sufficient rebouud to break the condemned man's neck, and hia strug gles and contortions as he was slowly strang led to death were frightful. To add to the horror of the hanging tbe knot sliped, and the gurgling in the man's throat as his life was being choked out could be beard out side the jail walls. Du ring the night the Rev. Mr. Dixon passed several hours with the doomed man, and again visited bim early this morning. Harvey slept well and this morning ate a heariy breakfast. The death warrant was read to him 7.55 and bis arms were iinion ed anl the procession headed by Rev. Mr. Dixon, marched to the scallold. Harvey looked haggard and raised his eyes only once.

Governor For aker last night granted a pardon to William Carroll, who was serving a lifis sentence in the Ohio Penitentiary. Carroll was convict ed twen'y-two years ago for the murder of Adam Rose, watchman of the Brown Coun- j ty Court Home. The crime was committed iu an attempt to rob the Treasury vaults of that county. The history of Carroll is one ofthe most dramatic and intensely inter esting chapters in the criminal annals of this country. He eped the detective after arrest, went west, married a daughter of Major Armstrong, of the United Slates army, and became a resident of Illinois. In that State he wai captured afier be had served in the war ofthe rebellion. Since his incarceration in the Ohij Peni tentiary he murdered a L-lhiw-prisouer in a burst of passion. There has always been much doubt as to the identity ofthe noted prisoner, as he was convicted entirely on cir cumstantial evidence, and this, together w.th his general good behavior in prison. Caused his pardon. An Editor Shot. Oode.x, Utah, Dec. 1. A sensation was created here yesterday afternoon through the shooting of C. 8. King, editor of lb Z.ii7? lh inn. by ex-Uuited States Deputy Marshal Exum, of this place. The trouble, which has been pending for several days, originated in the publication by the Vuiun of an article reflecting on the chatacter of Exura's wife. King was waited on by Ex um next diy, and published an ap-jlogy for slander, but aggravated the original offense by subjoining an innuendo, which so infuri a ted Exnm that, upon meeting King on the street, about four o'clock yesterday, Exum drew a pistol and shot him twice, one Wound being dangerotn but not necessarily fatal. No Wonder He Was Impatient. Nw York, Nov. 28 Alderman Walker performed an interesting marriage ceremo ny at the city ball yesterday. The groom, Carl Schuleubnrg, a billiard table manufac turer of Detroit, is sixty-one years old, and was taking to himself a third wife. The bride, Helina Helling, of E-ist S.iginaw, Michigan, is fitty-one years old, and waa taking her second husband. The groom im patiently called upon the alderman to make tbe ceremony short, and this, with the ca resses that were exchanged as soon as the words were spoken, gave the look of a love match to the ceremony. The preceding cer emony in a lawyer's office, by which $100, 000 worth of real estate was conveyed by the bride to tbe groom was, on tbe other band, very business-like.
