It is probable that the Republican Slate Convention will beheld ia Harris burg on August COth. The Republican primary election of this county, to nomi nate candidates for county offices and ielpgates to the Slate Convention, will be held on Saturday. June 24. Thc rush of office seekers at Washing ton is so large and so persistent that the President and his Cabinet Officers have been compelled to give public notice that on two days of the week (Tuesdays ' and Fridays) the doors of their respect ive offices will be closed to applicants. IsnAM i. Hakkim, who has just been elected President pro tempore of the I'uited Slates Senate, was Governor of Ten when that Stale seceded from the Union. Now he roosts on the top rail in the highest branch of tbe law making power of the government he at tempted to overthrow. It is vu'.arly supposed that it is the right and duty of the . Congress of the United Slates to frame all laws pertain ing to the government of this country ; but it is announced through the Iemo cratic pre that Secretary Carlisle has kindly assumed the task of framing a new tariff law, thus saving the next Con gress much worry and labor. It is said that eleven sons of United States Senators Lave been appointed to clerkships of Senatorial committees of which their fathers have just been made chairmen. Senator Pefler, of Kansas, having no son handy, has appointed his daughter clerk to his committee. What a commentary on Cleveland's late pro- nnnciamento against nepotism '. As soon as the weather settles we will probably have a new postmaster at Mey- ersdale. The coming event is looked for ly the general public with curiosity and by the interested parties with anxiety. It is of much moment from a double point of view. First, because it will allay the intense agitation prevailing among the citizen"- of tbe "Metropolis," and sec ondly, it will determine w hich of the warring Democratic factions in this coun ty is on top. The New York tiui publishes a racy article which pretends to map out the program of the Democracy to capture this State. The plan, according to the writ er, is to elect Governor I'attison Mayor ol the City of Philadelphia, to succeed Stu art, the present Mayor, make Attorney General Hensel the candidate for Gov ernor, to make Philadelphia a Iemo cratic city, and to boom Pattison for the Presidency in !S06. All of which is very interesting as well as amusing. ' Tu Democrats in the United States Senate have determined to ignore all precedents and to make an effort to re organize that body at once instead of waiting until the regular meeting of Con gress in December, as has always been the custom. TLe Republican Senators will resist this attempt to take "snap judgment," and as there is no such thing as the "previous question" in the Senate, the Republicans, by adopting Democrat ic tactics, can talk the reorganization pro ject to death. Mr. Secretary Hoke Smith's Atlanta JuiimtU opposes the nomination of post masters at a primary election because if the Republicans would come into power "Then we would see the postoffices given "to the man who : could poll the moat "votes at a Republican primary. That "rule applied to Georgia would give as a "negro postmaster in Atlanta and in "nearly every postoffice in the State." What terrible outrage it would be if Hoke and his lily-fingered friends would have to receive the mail at the hands of an intelligent negro ! The Chicago l,trr-0van has long claimed to be the leading Republican paper 't of the Allegheny mountains, but the LiitT-Omtn is too modest ; it has long been the leading Republican jour nal of tbe Unite.! States. There is nev er any uner rtain sound about the Intrr- utterances ; it is always for Amer . ica for Americans. But it is in regard to the l,.irr-itrr,tH4 twenty-first birthday of which we want to speak.

Country readers wishing to subscribe for a city journal daring this Columbian ytcr will make no mistake in selecting the I iJT-ficoni. bood. The result will be watched with eagerness by the public, and especially by our Democratic friends who are candi dates for positions. It will certainly be a singular and humiliating state of a&airs if Democratic members of Congress find their recommendations of their friends have to be first submitted to and approv ed by a Boss, or liable to be turned down at his dictation. T.me war for the spoils wh ieh is being waged between Chairman Harrity and the Democratic Congressional delegation goes merrily on. The announcement that Harrity is to boss the appointments from this State and that none except thote having Lis endorsement will go, ha stirred the gall of the more independent members o f tbe delegat ion. Representa tive Mutchler, it js reported from Wash ington, has t-rown domn his gauntlet, and in an interview with the Postmaster General, served notice that if an appoint ment which he requested was no made Lea ill make no further recommenda tions. This is not our funeral, bat for the credit of the Old Keystone Slate, we are gratified to know that one at least of itpreeeotative has averted his tnao- Rulesfor Reappointment. WashimuTos, March 23. It is generally understood here lhat President Clereland's no-reappointment order does not apply in tbe following cases: First To tfioee who have do opposition for reippointment. Second T those candidates for poatmaa terehips who have opposilioa, but are in dorsed almost nnantmoasly by citizens of their city or town. Third To those who were removed by the Harrison administration without aerv ing out their terms. Fourth To those who wers nominated for office by Mr. Cleveland just prior lo Gen eral Harrison's inauguration, but who fail ed of con firm alien by the Senate. A Mountain of Silver Metal. Tbe boi silver now stored in tbe Uuited States Mint at Philadelphia amounts to 110,' 00,000 ounces, the largest quantity ever deposited in one place in this country. This quantity is equal to 2jO,0uO pounds avoir dupois, or 3.125 tons. Loaded npon wagons carrying oue ton each, and allowing forty feet for each team and vehicle, this mass of metal would make a procession over twenty miles long. The quantity is so great that a new steel lined vault, 35 feet long, 8 feet wide and 10 feet wide, has been built to ao commodate a portion of it. Piled full from floor to ceiling, however, this new addition holds ooly Sj,.O,0U0 ounces. As silver bull ion is being poured into tbe Philadelphia Mint at the rate of 3,?kw,0w ounce a month, it will be only five or six months when an other Dew vault must be bnilt when the purchase of ine white metal is stopped. Women Registering to Vote. ToPEKvKan., March 2V There ws a rush of women last nibt to the polls to reg ister for election, it being tbe last day. Col ored women and servant girls crowded soci ety women in the rush and several swell so ciety women became disgusted and left without registering. One young woman ans wered "twenty" when asked her age. When told she could not vote, she quickly replied : "Yes, I can, too; I'm married." It took a great deal of talking to convince her that marriage did not confer the right to vote. She then gave her ae as 21 and said she voted three years ago in Wichita. The wife of one of the Slate officers refus ed to tell her age. Then the commissioner had to guess, and because be made it a few years more than she really was, she went off in a terrible passion and vowed that she would not mix up in such a scramble with the trash of the city anyway. Important Changes. Tbe two elecii.ms held under tbe new bal lot law prove that some amendments to it are necessary. The matter has been under discussion in both the senate and tbe house, and both branches of the legislature have referred the subject to the elections commit tees. John II. Fow is on tbe sub-committee of the bouse, which has charge of the ques tion, and he says that eleven important chang-s have been agreed uion by that com mittee. "Tbe first amendment," said he, "is to strike out of '.he ballots the residence of the candidates. This is considered wholly un necessary. It is in tbe nomination papers and only increases the size of the ballot by priming it on them. Second, to reduce tbe Dumber of ballots. Third, fix one day to de liver the ballots to the judge of elections in stead of two. tbe ballots to be delivered on the Monday before the election. Fourth, to extend the time for the sheriff to issue his proclamation. As tbe law reads now it is impossible for him to comply with it. Fifth, to require the common pleas court of tbe district when nominations are made, except those made in state conventions, which shall be tried in Dauphin county courts, to decide upon the validity of all certificates of nomi nation. Sixth, that in marking th ballot each candidate s name be marked with an X and the group marking be done away with. Seventh, ail groups to Lave a party appellation when that party for ten years has been making nominations in a slate con vention. Eighth, to repeal that portion of the law which requires the sheriffto issue a proclamation for city elections. Ninth, that no candidate shall be allow! to act as a watcher or be permitted in a booth after be has voted Tenth, that election offijers shall not be permitted to prepare a ballot for a person who claims to be disabled ; and elev enth, to require all persons who claim to be disabled to make at'idavit to the same. Smallpox Among Paupers. Jsrset City. X. J., March 25. Smallpox has broken out in tbe old men's pavillion at Snake Hill, aud it is feared that the disease will become epidemic in the alms house and other county institutions. There are over 1"0 cases in the pest hospital, in consequence of which tents have been erected for convales cents, and the old men were allowed to mingle with them at will. There are three suspicious cas-a in the alms houie.wbich it is feared may develop into smallpox. Thepeni teitiary and lunatic asylumare under special guard. Cloth that will turn Bullets.

Lospo. March 25. The loviliest and most precious freight ever sent to America went out on tbe Paris from Southampton to-day. It is a dazzling galaxy of 51 young women, who are supposed to represeut the best types of beauty of the old world, and were shipped by the big liner as a living ethnological exhibition for tbe Chicago Fair. It is not known whether this bewildering company buy realizes the poet s dream of fair women, for no one was allowed to look upon tbe aggregation of loveliness, who are said to be of the ne plus ultra of Kurope's fairest maidens, having been selected from several thousand ambitious creatures.

The four masked robbers who have been operating in and around Findlayvilte, on the Baltimore fc Ohio Railroad, in Washington coutity, for the past two years, turned op in that neigh borhood again yesterday and added another atrocious outrage to their already long list of crimes. They went to the residence of J. C. MoClelland.a wealthy farmer, residing one mile from Findlayville Station, during the absence of all members of the household except Mrs. William Kerr, McCelland's mar ried daughter, and IS months-old baby. McCleliaud bad gone to Washington. Pa., to deposit $2,000 in the bank. The robbers were after this, and after terrorizing Mia. Kerr and tbe cbiid began ransacking the house. Tbe baby cried, and one of tbe men grabbed it by the threat, choking it. Tbe mother flew at the fellow, who bit ber a blow with his fist, knocking bertj the floor. She was then bound and a gag forced into her mouth and thrown upon a bed, while one of the gang stood watch over ber with drawn revolver. beb haib err from beb bead. Finally after an boar's search, foiled in their attempt to find the money, they return ed to where the helpless woman lay and de manded that Mrs. Kerr tell where the mon ey was secreted. This she was enable to do. Roughly loosening ber hair, tbey cut it from her head. Then one of the men took tbe baby from the room. Soon the mother beard tbe baby's screams and was toid that ber child was being killed by inches and the only way to save its life was to disclose tbe hiding place of tbe mon ey. The frantic mother tugged at ber hands until tbe cruel strands cut into tbe flesh and blood gushed from nnder her finger nails. This continued for some time, when tbe men ran from the house. M rs. Kerr's struggles loosened ber hands Grasping ber child in her arms she ran to a neighbor's bouse and fell iu a faint at the door. When consciousness was restored she told her story, and a poae of friends or ganized to bunt for the robbers. So far no trace of the men has been discovered. An examination of the baby shows where its tender flesh had been pinched and jagged to make it "cream. Congressional Influence. WiH!3i.T0! March 22 Five members of the Missouri delegation in Congress, beaded by Representative Bland, called at tbe Post utlioe Department to dv and asked Post master General Bissell what weight would be givantothe recommendations of members of Congress in the appointment of postmast ers. It had been repeatedly stated in the newspapers, it was said, that Congressional influence was to go for nothing. Mr. Bissell said be did not think be could be held responsible for what had been pub lished in the newspapers. Thus far not a single postmaster had been appointed who bad not the indorsement of tbe members of Congress. That ought to be taken as con clusive evidence that :t was by no means his intention to ignore members of Congress. He thought, however, that tbe question of candidates should, in a measure at least, be decided by tbe people of the locality. They were more interested than any one else, and undoubtedly their wishes should be consulted and given very great weight. No one would, in any sense, be ignored, and it was folly to suppose that tbe assistance, advice and lecommendations of men of such high character as were the Representatives of the people in Congress, were not earnest ly desired. Harrity Will Appoint. The Waumgion correspondent of the" Philadelphia Times, speaking of the long con ference bad by Messrs. Harrity and Hensel with President Cleveland, give some inside news that will bj interesting to those who are bunting office in Pennsylvania. "In the first place it was absolutely deter mined, and without solicitation, that the political patronage of Pennsylvania shall be disposed of upon the recommendations of Mr. Harrity and his friends in the adminis tration. No man will be appointed to ollice in the Keystone Commonwealth who is ob jectionable to these gentlemen. To such an extent will this be carried that Pos master General Bissell is credited with having pre sented Messrs. Harrity and Hensel to Assist ant Postmaster General Max well, "the heads man," as be is humorously known in Washington, with the remark : 'These are the friends whose counsel we will follow in Pennsylvania.' That decision determines the selection of over 4.000 postmasters. "This settlement of tbe attitude of the Na tional administration towards the State ad ministration forces in Pennsylvania has completely disrupted tbe Congressional com bine which c A leer, of Philadelphia, and Mutchler, of Northampton, attempted lo form. Tbey circulated rumors that Mr. Harrity and his friends were in bad oder with the President and his advisers and with these as a basis they endeavored to bring about a coalition of all tbe anti-Slate administration Demacratic Congressmen, the hope being held out that all who had joined the combine would control the disvis ion of the loaves and fishes. The reception given Harrity and Hensd has dissolved this roseate-tinged mist." Will Get Your Bank Roll. Ckicauo, III., March 25. If anyone thinks be can see tbe World's Fair for 50 cents he will find that be has made a serious mistake. Some one will preseutly obtain a concession to all the air at Jackson Park and sell it to visitors at so much per breath. The water privilege, the toilet room privilege, the priv ilege to usurp tbe benches in tbe park and charge money for sitting on them all these and a hundred others have been granted. In many cases it cannot be learned that tbe Fair directors have received anything for the grants. In the matter of tbe toilet room privilege the practical "cinch" on hundreds of thous ands of dollars Las been given away. A sanitary company has placed in the various buildings on tbe grounds 3mX water-closets and lavatories.' A fixed fee of fire and ten cents will be charged for the use of these. It is said by interested parties that Director General Davis is interested in the sanitary snup. He Slept Every Night in a Coffin. From the York Gazette. Jacob Mumma, the recluse, died recently at his residence, on the York road, one mile from Hanover. Since 1813 "be was away from his dreary place but once, and on uhat occasion, in ISSi, he risted England. While there he obtained a patent on a watch and was offered $30,000 for the righl, but be wanted 100,0jO, and got nothing. This, in connection with disappointment in a love affair, preyed on hi mind to such an extent that be decided to retire from society and live by himself. In winter he lived entire ly in the cellar of his bouse. Her be would eat and sleep, and in the summer time would occupy a room on tbe second floor and one above that on tbe third. H went from one room to tbe other by tbe aid of a Udder, having holes cut through the ceilings, never going in any other part of the bouse. Often at night be would come forth from bis haunt and stroll over tbe farm in order to see lhat all was well and at the same time get a little fresh air and exercise. Some years ago be had a casket made, in whicl- be slept until be died. 8ome time ago be imagined that rats aad mice might get at him while asleep and bad high stilts put to tbe casket, getting in and out with a ladder. He bad a tin box made and left in care of the undertaker, in which be wanted to be buried. He bad no nse for a doctor, preacher, or barber. Jenner Normal.

A bill baa bees prepared sod will be pre sented to the Legislature for a pension for the widow of the family of Sergeant Wm. Knnkle, of Cbambersburg. Sergeant Kun kb was OLe of the victims of the Homestead war. A bill was introduced in tbe Legislature the other day, increasing the pay of tbe county eonimismoner, coroners sod county detectives and decreasing the compensation of county auditors and county surveyors. Tbe pay of auditors snd surveyors is low enough now in all conscience, and it is not likely the bill will pais. Governor Pattison has issued a proclama tion designating Sat unlay, April 15th, and Saturday, April 2!ih, to be observed as Ar bor days ia Pennsylvania. The selection of either of the designated day is left to tbe discretion of tbe people in the various sec tions of the Commonwealth, each locality observing that day which is deemed most lavorable on account of climatic conditions. It is said a resolution has been prepared, and w ill be offered in the House next week, directing tbe appointment of a special com mittee of five members of the House and three members of the Senate to make all the arrangements to take tbe Legislature to Chi cago to attend tbe dedication of tbe Penn sylvania State building. The expenses of the trip will be provided for in the general appropriation bill. Assemblyman Murphy, of Westmoreland county, on Tuesday introduced a bill amend ing tbe penal laws of tbe State so as to change the punisbmeut for murder in the first degree from banging to either hanging or solitary confinement for life, and making it tbe duty of the jury when they tender their verdict to designate the punishment and requiring the sentence in accordance therewith. Ope of tbe surprises of the week was the large vote cast for tbe local option bill intro duced by Representative Mansfield, of Bea ver, authorizing counties and cities to vote at the next February election and every three years thereafter on the propriety of granting licenses to sell intoxicating liquors. Another surprise was the fact that this im portant bill excited no discussion. It com manded 85 votes, while its opponents could muster only 56. A bill was introduced by Mr. Metzger, of Potter, a member of the bouse elections com mitlee, to pay the expenses of William P. Higby. the unsuccessful contestant in tbe Crawford county election case. Mr. Higby's expenses are itemized, as follows : Witness es and transportation, $51.00; livery and incidentals. $0M ; stenographer, $245 ; rail road fare and personal expenses, $;G f ; hotel bill, Harrisburg, $225 ; attorneys' fees, $1,20; total, $!,oSH5. Senator Hackenburg, of Northumberland, has prepared an important substitute for bis License Commission Bill. H provides for a License Court, composed of ten persons learned in the law, to be appointed by the Governor, five from each of the two parties polling tbe largest aggregate vote in the State. These Judges serve for ten years at a salary of $o,0"0 and traveling expense, and one from each party retires every two yearj. No person who has served a full term of ten years is eligible to reappointment. For li censt purposes the State is divided into twenty-four districts, the 20th district being composed of tbe counties of Itlair, Bedford, Cambria aud Somerset. In these districts applications for licenses shail be filed by Oc tober 1st of each year, and, when granted, take effect on January 1st following. Tbe court shall meet at Harrisburg on the first Mondays of October, January and April of each year, when tbe Presideut shall assign one Judge to each district where licenses sre to be granted during the three months next following. He shall summon to his assist ance a judge of different political faith, but no Judge shall sit in the d is; net wherein he resides, nor be assigned two years success ively to the same district, nor shall Judges of the same political party succeed each ot ti er in the aame district, Tbe hearing before tbe License Court shall be by petition re monstranot, and the testimony of witnesses, tbe same as now had before the Courts of Quarter Sessions. It shall be lbs duty of a Judge assigned to a district, be lore proceed ing to bear the applications for licenses, to go npon the several premises for which li censes are asked, ascertain tb:ir fitness for the accommodation of the public, investi gate tbe necessity for the license, and make inquiry as to the character of the several ap p icacts. No change is made in the license fee, further than to require the payment of $5 to the clerk of courts for tbe use of the State. It is stated lhat this bill has been sub mitted to the Governor, and ill be signed by him if passed. A KEW BOAD LAW. Mr. Losch's bill, enabling taxpayers of townshis and road districts to contract for making at their own expense the roads and paying salaries of townships or road dis trict officers, and thereby preventing the levy and collection of road tax thereon, came up on second reading and met with great opposition. Mr. Loscb said it was the only solution of tbe road quelioi', and tar plead for its passage. Messrs. Niles, Wherry and Reese insisted that it was a per nicious measure intricate and not capable of bring pat to practical use. Seeing that his bill was doomed, Mr. Ljsch plead that .t be passed to third reading, and tbe House as sented to bis request, at the same time serv ing notice that the bill will be kill?d on fi nal paesage. The Nesbit road bill, which provides for the location, opening, vacation, construction and maintenance of the public highways, roads and bridges of the State, was consider ed on second reading and excited a great deal of debate. An amendment was ottered ap propriating $.1,0U0.0U0 annually for the roads of the Stale, to be divided in proportion to the number of miles of public highwsy in each county. Mr. Marshall, the chairman ofjhe Appro priation Committee, protested against this appropriation on the ground that in two years it will take $0,000,000 from the Treas ury, which along with the $10,000,000 for tbe public schools, will dispose of $l(j,ouo,0.)0 of the estimated $13.5.iO,oi0 of revenue. Al ready the House has passed appropriation bills for capitol repairs and maiitia expenses aggregating $1,000,000, and if the proposed appropriation for roads were passed it would reduce the money to be devoted lo State in stitutions and all government expenses to less than $1,500,000. Tbe House did not heed Mr. Marshall's wanting and passed the amendment making the appropriation by a vote of 71 yeas to 57 nays. Another amendment was offered provid ing that roads in cities shall share in the mooey appropriated by the Stale, and after the debate it was ruled out of order as not germane to the stction nnder discussion. In tbe course of this debate Mr. A'alton stated that there are a thousand miles of country roads in Philadelphia. Tbe bill was postponed for the present, with the understanding that when it again comes up there will be amendments inserted that will remove all objections lo it.

These s'ructures are of wood, brick or stone, and will contain a total of 33.M5 rooms. Tbey will cost nearly $4,J0.OOO. With this abundance of accommodations, it is believed that hotel rates will not be excessive. The flour mill and elevators in Litchfield, in Illinois, owned by Kehler Bros., were de stroyed oa Tuesday. A fire started in the mill and was followed by an explosion of flour dust. The mill was blown to pices and many business bouses and dwellings in the illiage were wrecked. Oue person as killed and nianp injured, but none, it is thought, fatally. The loss is placed at $4O0,UO0. Col. Elliott F. Shepard, editor of the New York Mail and Eiprest, died suddenly Friday altemoon.

Sam Jones, the Evangelist, has been knocking Satan right and left, in bis char acteristic style, at Cartersville, Ga. He has denounced Pastor Dobbs, of tbe Baptist Church, as a slanderer.

Both men are said to be armed. and a hostile meeting is possible. A funny bill with funny penalties is that proposed by Representative Sikorsky in the Minnesota legislature against tbe unfastidi ous Chinese.

So hereafter six-minute sermons will be the rule. An attempt to kill King Humbert was made Saturday evening by one Berardi as the King was returning from tbe Villa Borghese, where he had been spending the day. Tbe missile thrown by the would be assassin missed its mark, and, before a sec ond attempt upon the King's life could be made, several persons rushed npon the as sailant and held him fast. There were I great msny people on the street at the time, and as soon as tbe facts of tbe case became known there was the wildest excitement. The assa.lant was promptly taken in hand by tbe police and conveyed to prison : other wise he would in all probability have ben ki.led by tbe angry multitude. He is said to be a religious fanatic. Tbe greatest eater in England is dead, and incidentallythere disappears from the ranks of tbe nobility a strange and grotesque figure Tbe late Duke cf Bedford, who leaves be hind him an estate of $50,000,000, was prac tically, a recluse, and though so enormous ly r:cb, a great miser. His one absorbing thought was to pile up further hoards, and find new possibilities of retrenchment. Dur ing the last few years he had become physi cally almost a monstrosity, through indul gence in a most gluttonous appetite This made him very corpulent , and this in ttun compelled sedentary habits, which tended to increase his size. He ate, one acquaint ance says, like a wolf. He was reputed to be the largest aud heaviest feeder in Eng land, and those who bad seen him eating say it was a sight never to be forgotten Heart disease was tbe immediate cause of deaih, but be really died of gluttony. A Tale of Unrequited Love. Watsessibo, Pa., March 23. About 11 o'clock to-day the body of Lindsey Sapping ton, a respected and well-to-do young farm er, was found banging to a tree near bis borne, four niiles south of Wsynesburg. He bad been married but little over a week, and the atory of his taking bis life is traced to that event. A week ago Saturday he was married to Maggie Johnson, aged 17, at the borne of her mother, Mrs. Wide, in Wayne township. A few days after their marriage he over heard bis wife telling ber mother that she would not have married him if she could have got a certain other yonng man. This was a heavy blow, and be was completely crushed. Last Monday became lo Way nea burg. Before leaving home be gave ail the money he bad to bis wife and also some notes be heid. He then bade ber good-bye. Monday evening about dark his horse was founl ia the road not far from bis borne, stripped of tbe saddle and bridle. Tbe young man's father and a party of neighbors final ly instituted a search with the result atated. The young man bad removed the strap from the brid e and, climbing ap the tree, tied one end to a limb and with tbe other end formed a noose which he placed over h i head and swung off. WHISKIES !
