ELECTRICITY will kill. The New York
Supreme Court says so.
BTATI STICS compiled from the reports of
the treasurers of State and Territory, show
the wealth of the United States to be six
ty-one billion, four hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars outside of the public property.
TBI people of Baltimore county, Mary
land. are considering a plan for obtaining
better roads which may have a suggestion
for other communities. It is estimated
that the county spends $7?. 000 a year
without obtaining good roads. It is pro
posed therefore that $1,000,000 shall be
borrowed for forty years at 4 per cent, in
terest, and the principal spent in macada
mizing the roads; «0,000 yearly to pay
the interest and SIO,OOO yearly for a sink
ing fund to pay the principal.
THB American Cultivator suggests that
managers of County Agricultural fairs
should offer premiums to the road districts
that keep the best roads or mako the great
est improvements at the smallest expense.
And the Philadelphia Record adds: Tho
suggestion is an excellent one. Good roads
are a common blessing, and more than
any other single agency increase the gen
eral comfort and wealth. If self-intereet
fails to teach this lesson, it might be
brought home to our agricultural brethren
by such an effort to incite friendly rivalry.
THB car stove is not "going" with that
celerity that was expected or that people
who do much traveling could wish. The
Pennsylvania Company has spent $75,000
in experimenting in systems of heating by
steam, but none so far have given the sat
' isfaction of the much abused car stove.
Their objeations to steam heating, how
ever, are not unanswerable. They admit
that it works all right on short trains, but
when ten or twelve coaches are in a train
the heat cannot be so well diffused and
with so heavy a train the locomotive needs
all the steam it can produce to haul its
load np the grades, when the cars rapidly
cool. It would seem that these difficulties
could be met by using short trains all the
time, or having the large trains drawn by
locomotives with greater steam producing
capacity. Whenever the Pennsylvania
Company really wants to solve the ques
tion of steam heating its cars it will find a
way to do it.
Lessons In Street Paving.
Our attention has been drawn to some
recent investigations of the editor of the
Indianapolis Clay Worker on this subject,
and we quote from his writings some points
ot interest. He was recently on a visit to
Decatur and Bloomington, Illinois. In tho
latter place he found brick paving laid in
1876 still in excellent condition. This
pavement was on the west side of the
court-house square, one of t. •: busiest
thoroughfares of the city. All the repairs
made in the 13 years have been those
necessitated by the laying of water and gas
connections, which always leaves an un
aren surface after the work is done and the
fillings settle. "Otherwise" sayß the writer
quoted, "the work is good for as many
more years wear. The brick nsod in the
laying of this pavement were selected from
ordinary building brick, the hardest brick
bdsg used for this purpose, and were not I
equal in hardness to those required at
present. The city of Bloomington, after
testing the use of brick, has abandoned the
use of other kinds of material foi paving.
The street leading directly from the rail
road station building to the central portion
of the city wtfs paved probably 15 years ago
with limestone, but has worn into holes
and is now being paved with brick."
Altogether, Bloomington has six miles of
hfr streets now paved with brick, and it is
the general verdict of business men "with
out an exception," that "it is tbe best
pavement that has so far been introduced
for their use, and they have tried wooden
blocks, stone Macadam and asphaltum."
Decatur, Illinois, "began to use brick for
street paving six years ago and tho result
haa been so satisfactory that it now has
over eight miles of streets paved with
brick. The method of laying the pave
ment at this place is as follows: The
street is brought to the grade required.
The street is then rolled with a six-ton
cast roller. Then a layer of sand is spread
four inches thick, on which a layer of good
common hard brick is laid flat, but
lengthwise with the street, and tamped
down solidly with a heavy tamp, leaving
an even surface. A two-inch layer of sand
is then spread, care being taken to fill the
interstioes of the flat layer of brick, after
which a course of what are called in this
market 'black hards' are set on edge cross
wise of tbe street, breaking the joints,
aam<J as is building. These are tamped
down solidly, leaving the surface as even
as possible. Over the surface a layer of
sand is spread of sufficient thickness to
fill all the spaces left in laying by the oom
mon travel of the street and the surface is
again rolled several times with the cast
roller. Both layers of brick are set as close
as possible by hand, so as to leave the
smallest spaces only. The brick used for
the top course are very hard indeed. "
The people of Decatur are represented as
delighted with the brick paving, and they
have good reason to be, as "the street
paved six years ago is used more than any
other in the city, and yet it has not cost a
penny for repairs." The editor of the Clay
Worker, speaking of this form of paving,
•ays that "after twenty years of wear, if it
is necessary to repair, the expense will bo
■mall compared with other pavements.
The grade of the streets and the foundation
layer of brick will be intact, and many of
the top brick will be good, so that a re- ]
newal of the pavement after 20 or 25 years
of wear will not be expensive."
AB to cost, Bloomington paid $1.50 por
square yard, which included gradiug and
curbing, while the cost at Decatur was
$1.32, $1.37 and $1.40 per square yard, the
differences in cost being duo to the grad
ing. Decatur used bricks made in tho city,
which are burned until tlicv are vitrified.
"As an evidence of their ch»' cter," says
the authority quoted, "it is sufficient to
say that in delivering ou the streets the
bricks are pitched from tbe wagon by hand
into the piles, the same as boulders are
handled, and there is seldom a broL i
brick. The brick have a bright black glt.*e.
tbe result of vitrification and not from any
other cause."
Another point made in the same con
nection is this; "Tbe advantage of using
the common sizes of brick is apparent. If
some of the brick are not suitable for par
ing they may be used for other purposes,
occasioning no particular loss, the differ
ent in pace being « small matter.''
The Pan-American Congress.
The common estimate of the South
American delegates has undoubtedly bee n
considerably revised during the past
month, and is destined to be changed st ill
more in the direction of a fuller recogni
tion of their special fitness for the work
intrusted to thsm. It would be a mistake
to suppose that they were chosen with
the slight care that seems to hare been
ghown in the selection of the American
delegation. The South American coun
tries attended to the choice of their repre
sentatives with great pains. Tliey have sent
a brilliant and able body of men. Some
of them are profound scholars and skilled
linguists; others are trained and experienc
ed diplomats, learned jurists, experts in
finance, masters of commercial law, prac
tised administrators, specialists in ques
tions of international trade, or parliamen
tarians of reputation and skill. All of
these special advantages for the work of
the Congress have been already displayed
more than once by the foreign delegates
in the preliminary debates of the Confer
ence, and are destined to be brought into
greater prominence in future sessions.
There has been a general impression
that the work of the Congress np to date
has been very unimportant, and that, in
fact, the time has been pretty much wast
ed in aimless and wordy debates. Some
Justification certainly exists for such an
idea; yet the difficulties in the way of
prompt and decisive action have been
great from the nature of the case. The
lack of a common language has been awk
ward and time-consuming, every speech
and motion having to be translated back
and forth from English to Spanish. Then
there are some Bharp differences between
American and Spanish parliamentary prac
tice, which inevitably occasions some mis
understandings and delays at first. Xor
is it so slight a matter to fix upon the best
rales of procedure for a body of Buch unus
ual composition and gathered for such un
precedented purposes. So that it is really
quite an achievement for the Congress to
have cleared away all its preliminary work
in a month, and now to be ready for seri
ous consideration of the main questions to
be presented.
It has been decided to have most of the
work done in committee. The different
subjects have been assigned to men spec
ially qualified to handle them. Careful
sudy of the various projects proposed is
already underway, and when the reports
of the committees come to be presented,
and such measures as can be agreed upon
submitted to the debate, the public may
look for able and illuminating discussions.
The secrecy in which the proceedings of
the Congress are shrouded is intended to
guard details more than results, and there
will be ample opportunity for the coun
tries interested to know exactly what
propositions are being debated, and what
reasons are offered in their favor or against
them.
Killing Negroes In South Caro
lina.
Just before dawn last Saturday a mob of
300 masked men took possession of the
Barnwell, S. C., jail. Eight negro prison
ers accused of murder were taken out and
shot Prominent citizens have made an
explanation and defense of the deed. Not
withstanding this the lynching is strongly
denounced by Southern people.
Three hundred armed men, with faces
masked, surrounded tho jail just at the
darkest hour before the dawn while the in
mates were sleeping heavily. They moved
with caution and as an organized body.
The jailor was quietly seized and quickly
overpowered, his keys taken from him, the
heavy doors unlocked, and before the eight
negroes sleeping within were awakened
from their cells were filled with strange
figures.
They were seized and carried out into
tho night Their cries for mercy and curses..
were alike unheeded by their silent execu
tioners. Tho body of men was put in mo
tion and proceeded a quarter of a mile, and
halted in the outskirts of the town, the
eight unfortunate wretches were secured,
several hundred shots were fired, and eight
lay on the earth with blood running from
a hundred wounds—literally torn to pieces.
Such was the scene of the terrible tragedy
enacted in tho town of Barnwell on Satur
day morning.
The most terrible retribution was far a
not extraordinary offense, as the crimes
records will prove. Four years ago five
men were lynched in Yorkville for the
brutal murder of a littls boy who caught
them stealing, but they belonged to an
organized gang whose members were sworn
to kill whoever caught them stealing, and
they were believed to have committed
several murders previously. Their con
viction was uncertain and the people took
tho law in their owu hands.
But tho wholesale lynching of Saturday
morning is without parallel in the records
of crimes in that State, and there was less
ground for the act than probably any
lynching before. It is doubtful if the
country can show a like record.
To Die by Electricity.
ROCHESTER, N. Y. —Judge D wight has
dismissed the writ of habeas corpus applied
for in the case of Kemmler, the murderer,
and remanded tho prisoner to the Warden
of the State Prison. After a long dis
quisition upon the constitutionality of the
proposed taking ot Kemmler's life by elec
tricity, Judge Dwight says:
"The light of the scientific evidence in
this case is sufficient as we think,to remove
everv reasonable doubt, that the passage of
a current of electricity of a certain well de
termined intensity through the vital parts
of the body, under chosen conditions of
contract and resistance, must result in in
stant death. If the question were of tho
advisability in the change of the mode of
inflicting death by capital punishment the
discussion might be prolonged. As we are
confined to the question of constitutional
ity wo deem further discussion unneces
sary. Tho order dismissing the writ of
habeas corpus and remanding the prisoner
must be affirmed."
THE Philadelphia l'rest suggestively re
marks: One banker in Bostou drew 4240
drafts representing $53,800 which working
people were sending their relatives in
Europe as Christmas gifts. We don't hear
of the workingmen in the Free Trade na
tions of Europe sending any such little
tokens of prosperity to their kinsmen in
this tariff-ridden country.
HABITUAL criminals will fare hard in Il
linois from this time forth. Under a now
law, two men found guilty of robbery, it
being their third conviction for the same
offense, have been sentenced to "imprison
ment in the penitentiary for the term of
natural lives." The Habitual Criminal Act
cannot fail to have a wholesome effect It
is based on the principle that the incorrigi
ble criminal who has refused to reform
when two chances have given him should
be punished most severely.
THE news from Madras that tho natives
are starving to death rather than eat with
others of another caste and that they flee
to tho hills from the food brought by
the English for fear of being forced to
cat in the presence of people not of their
own walk in lifa is tho most striking in
stance furnished by modern times of a
people yielding their lives rather than give
up the faith that is m them. Such ex
amples were abundant on the continent of
Europo during the Reformation, and pos
sibly, under similar pressure, Christian
races would show the same fortitude for
righteousness' sake again.
A Funeral Without a Corpse.
SYRACUSE, Dec. 2S. —Some days ago the
story came from Canandaigua that George
T. Reddington. a former resident of that
place. had been discovered in an insane
asylum in the West. The idea conveyed
was that he was the victim of some con
spiracy. Information has reached here
from Syracuse, Kan., that Reddington did
go West and took up a claim near Lakin.
Kearney county. He passed as a single
man. Some time in June. 1887, he. with
August Shurman. Wm. F. Ringle and
Samuel Morehart. who occupied adjoining
claims, arranged to have his life insured in
different companies for about $14,000. The
four men were to contribute equally to the
payment of the expense, then Reddington
was to feign death, the policies were to be
collected by his co-conspirators, and the
proceeds were to be equally divided among
the four. The policies were payable to
Nettie Reddington. the man's wife.
Reddington, to guard against all con
tingencies, wrote to his mother in Canan
daigua, X. Y., explaining the scheme, so
that when she received notice of his death,
which was to be telegraphed to her, she
need not be alarmed or take any steps in
regard to the disposal of the body. Un
fortunately for him, the letter was delayed,
and the telegram reached its destination
first. It was answered by a telegram to
have the body placed in a metallic casket
and sent East. As the burial had already
taken place, the Coroner was asked to ex
hume the body. He found the coffin
empty. Reddington, hiding in the cellar,
had been an interested participant in his
own obsequies. His disappearance led to
an investigation and the arrest of Shurman
and Ringle. The case, howevej, failed,be
cause Mrs. Reddington, the beneficiary,
could not be connected with the conspir
acy. The facts as given in the foregoing
are from a statement made by Samuel
Morehart.
A Cliinese Story.
It was just about 1" moons ago that
Yong Fong Doy, a laundryman of Second
avenue, New York, hit a Mott street "poh
ka peah,'' or policy shop, for 1.500 cold
Melican dollars, on an investment of $1
capital, and concluded to visit his relatives
in Canton. Yong and a companion put up
at a first-class Chinese public house in
Hong Kong, under assumed names.
The younger of the two became the eld
ers valet, and made the proprietor under
stand that his companion was a mandarin
recently commissioned to the United
States to inspect railroads, and that he was
on his way to Pekin to report. The effect
of this was to bring the employes of the
house upon their knees. In a day or two
nearly 2uo men were hired as bodyguard,
secretary and other necessary attaches
to the person of a "Kwanyin" or high offi
a journey.
yong had a wash basin made to order
in solid beaten gold. It took more than
half of his fortune; but it inspired confi
dence. To each of his 200 followers he
advanced a half month's wages, which
means $2 apiece.
In a week Yong set out in a gorgeous
sedan chair, carried upon the shoulders of
eight able-bodied Chinamen, for Pekin, in
tho character of Khi Chong Wong began
on the city of Soon Chn, in the province
of Kan Si.
The Prefect was notified by couriers
that his excellency Khi Chong Wong the
uncle of the Emperor, would probably
need some ready cash for necessary ex
penses, as is customary for all members
of the imperial household, who never carry
money while travelling.
The frightened "Chefoo" with a force of
gayly-clad officials, went out of the city
to meet Khi Chong Wong, and the next
morning the '"Chefoo - ' upon his knees,
handed to the bogus prince $50,000 in gold
bricks, as the only available cash in the
public treasury.
The next city was Lin Kiang, where the
Prefect gave up $25,000. Other towns
were laid under contribution in a similar
way, until one day Yong and his compan
ions disappeared.
The discovery of tho fraud was not made
until tho "Chefoo" of Ly Chu called upon
the Viceroy of his Province, and the latter
telegraphed to the capital to Khi Chong
Wong himself. Of course the latter had
"not left tho capital for years. A big reward
is offered for the impostor's apprehension
and if caught he will receive tho 'Ling Chi'
punishment; that is, he will be cut up alive
into 18 pieces,
Deadly Grippe.
PARIS, Dec. 27.—The large number of
deaths resulting from the influenza in this

Prostrated by La Grippe.
TOLEDO, 0., Dec. 30. Fully 5000 per

THERE is hopo that the hiatus to Canada
of forgors, embezzlers and thieves general
ly from this side of tho line is nearly at an
end; at least that there will be no more
safety from arrest if they do flee there than
there is here. Secretary Blaine and Min

by which the number of extraditable of

tle doubt that it will speedily be confirmed
by tho Senate and go into immediate ef

THE decision of the Ohio Supreme Court
that the amendments voted for at tho fall

only two years to harmonize their differ
