From the Philadelphia Bulletin:

was a soldier in the Confederate ar

nothing to do with the Confederate

The daily papers last Friday con

this State. One in Philadelphia, one
in Lock Haven, and one in Pittsburg.
One woman and two men, all past

were not reported that day? How
many suicides within the limits of
the nation ! What's got the matter
with the people that they take so
readily to suicide?

Honesdalk, Pa., May IS. Jame6
P. McCabe, who was to be executed
here on the 2Gth inst., for the mur
der of Michael Riley in Preston town
ship, in December, 1885, escaped
from jail between 3 and 4 o'clock
this morning having passed two
sleepy watchman and through three
doors. At 1:30 this morning the
prisoner complained of feeling ill
and asked one of the watchmen to
go tlie shenff.6 house and get him
some medicine. Some cholera drops
and a drink of whisky containing
cayenne pepper were sent him. He
took tbe draught of liquor and then
went to bed. Between three and four
o clock the watchmen saw McCabe in
his cell. They occupied seats besides
the cell door and both fell into a
sleep in which they remained until
4 o clock. L pon awakening at that
hour they discovered that their pris
oner had fled. They claim that they
were drugged. The general theory
is mai me escape is tne result of
wen laid plan; in which a number of
confederates figured. Upon the ex
nmmauuu 01 me locK this morning
it was discovered that bolts had been
removed by some one in the corridor
outside the cell and the iron case
placed back over the lock. When the
time for escape came it was possible
lor the prisoner to reach through
an aperture in the door through
which his meals were passed and take
on tne iock. line done he went to
the coat of one of the BleeDin.T wnf eh
men Gilpin which hung near the
cell door. From the pocket of the
coat he procured the key to the out-

free. In bis cell was found a big
club four feet long, and in his bed lay
a file, one end of which had been
formed into a screw-driver. The re

A Lost Opportunity.
Mr. Geonre Washington Cole, of
Chicago, did'nt come home one even
ing at the usual time, nor the next
day, and Mrs. Cole, becoming alarm
ed, began a search for him. She
was not successful and after several
days, as a last resort, visited the
morjue. The keeper listened to her
description, and then said he thought
he had a subject that answered to it
The wife desired to look at the body,
and she was shown into the dead
house. After viewing the subject
pointed out to her very intently for
several minutes, Mrs. Cole burst in
to tears and declared that the body
was that of her late huBband. But
in order to assure herself that she
had made no mistake, she requested
the keeper of the morgue to turn the
body over, and see if there was a
larce scar on the back of the neck.
As he nroceeded to do so. a set of
fulsfl teeth fell out of the mouth of
the corpse upon the marble 6lab
"Stop I" exclaimed Mrs. Cole, wiping
away her tears ; "ueorge never
wore false teeth." "You blamed
fool ! growled the keeper of the
morsrue, addressing the corpse as he
roughly threw it back in place and
picked up the false teeth ; "if you
had kept your month shut you might
have had a decent burial. r rom

Lauding Under Difficulties.
The Philadelphia Bulletin of last
Saturday relates the following : The
two emigrants who arrived at this
port a few days ago and were not
permitted to land sailed back to their
port of embarkation this morning on
the Steamship Lord Gough, of the
International bteamstup line. J. he
reason for this action was that the
couple, a man and woman, had been
contracted for by an agency in Chica
go. The man was to be employed as
manager cf a farm, and the woman
was to have charge of the dairy. The
facts being communicated to Wash
ington the Department instructed the
customs authorities to hold the two
and not permit them to land.
It was al.egeJ that the man and
woman did not come under the pro
visions of the law prohibiting the im
portation of foreign labor under con
tract, but that they were merely ser
vants and were exempted by the law
itself. Affidavits were procured in
support of the allegation, and the
Department at ashington was ap
pealed to by the parties interested.
Finally the authorities at ashington
directed the Collector of the Port to
exercise his discretion. The latter
finally decided to permit the two de
tained emigrants to land, but the or
der was not received in time. It
came into the hands of the Customs
officials about 9 o'clock, while the ves
sel cut loose and steamed down the
river before that time with the two
emigrants on board. A tug, however,
was despatched, and coming up to
the steamer, the couple were taken
off.
A Costly Jury Blnuder.
Baltimore, May 20. The City
Court was engaged all of Tuesday in
the trial of the case of Johannes Wag
ner against Joseph A Bennett, and
the twelve jurors impaneled in the
case are supposed to have paid close
attention to the evidence. There be
ing no court on Wednesday, the case
went over from Tuesday until yester
day morning for argument, all the
testimony being in. After calling the
list of the whole jury, Mr. William
P. Lowry, the court clerk, bade the
jury in the special panel to take their
seats. Une of the jury, James Doo
ley, was not present at this time and
another juror, not of the special pan
el, a man named George F. L. Flitch
ner, took Dooley's place in the box.
JSo one remarked the substitution.
and the counsel in the case, Thomas
K. Clendmen, for the plaintiff, and
William H. Cowan, for the defend
ant, went on and argued the case. In
the meantime Dooley came in, but
finding twelve men in the box he
said nothing, but took his seat with
the other juiors not in the case.
Counsel having concluded the jury
retired. Another case was called, and
Mr. Lowry, proceeding to call anoth
er jury, called out Fritchner'a name.
There was no answer, and he called
it out again so loud that Fritchner.
in the ante-room to which the Wag
ner Bennett jury had retired, said :
"Ihey are calling me in the court
room. Mr. F. E. Marine, foreman
of the jury then found out that
Fritchner was not on his jury, and
sent word to Judge Stewart, at the
same time saying a juror named
smith was absent. There was then
a call made for Smith, but although
there were two Smiths among the re-
uimum jtiuio, uoiiuer one said a
word, and it was not until Dooley
came partially to his senses that he
arose and informed the court that he
had sat in the case on Tuesday. Sen
ding for the jury, Judffe Stewart told
them that he would not trust himself
M) spent oi the blunder that was
made, but as for Fritchner, he said
he would fine him $1 50 for a remin
der for the future. The Judge then

case went off. This stupid blunder
costs the city about $120, count ing
the expenses of the court about $60
per day, not to say anything of the
cubLs ui iue case about $40.

Bain Creatly Seeded.
Chicago, May 21. A despatch from
St Paul Minn., to the Times stys
Reports come in that rain is greatly
needed in Minnesota and Dakota, for
the ground is very dry, especially in
the Red Paver Valley, but no serious
damage to wheat has yet been re
ported. At Rochester the drouth is
severe enough to make tbe situation
a very grave one. Not only is grain
at a standstill, but the chinch bugs
are very numerous and are creating
havoc in the early sown grain. Many
fields are turning yellow and the
grain is spindling. With iimely rains,
however, late 60wn grain will stand
the best chance. Spring sown grain
has come up poorly, and the stand is
light and sickly lookiDg. The heavy
winds of last week uncovered very
much of the late sown seed, and
many fields will have to be replant
ed. Corn generally is not up nd
can make no growth until rain. P.e
ports from many sections in the vi
cinity of Eau Claire indicate that
winter wheat is almost a total fail
ure, though should copious rains fall
soon a partial crop may be harvested.
Many fields have been plowed under
and planted with other crops. On
bottom lands and heavier soils the
conditions are somewhat better, but
even there the continuance of the
drouth will about ruin all cereals. It
vorable conditions from now on, the
harvest in this section will be from
thirty-three to fifty per cent, below
the average.

Another Tragedy.
FniLLirsBURa, Pa., May 15 An
other mysterious shooting affiir has
occurred in Clearfield county, thi
time about one mile below l'Lilips
burg, near Troy's along the Beach
Creek railroad, in which Jacob Bov-
er a young unmarried man, about 22
years of age, met his death. A few
minutes before 8 o clock hist evening.
he left his boarding house to meet
Miss Maggie McCann, with whom he
bad previously made an engagement.
Between the hours of 8 aud 9, at the
above named place, Jacob Boyer was
either shot by Miss McCann or shot
himself, it is not now positively
known which. The ball entered the
back of the head and came out near
the eye, indicating murder, for it
would be a difficult matter for a man
to put a ball into his head iu that
peculiar way. A jury has been em
paneled but has not yet rendered a
verdict. Miss ilaggie McCann who
stoutly maintains her innocence, de
claring that Boyer shot himself, was
arrested and lodged in the county
jail at Clearfield to await develop
ments. j.i is very dimcuit to get at
the real facts in the case. Rumors
are plenty, as they always are in
cases of this sort, but the Tribune
readers don't want rumors. Miss
McCann .will not be tried before
September. Boyer was a native of
Aew xork, and his home is said to
have been in Auburn previous to his
coming nere. At the time of his
death he was conductor on the beach
creek railroad. Clearfield county
has three murder trials on hand for
the fall term Mehaffey case, Hamler
and now Miss McCann. Altoona
