HARRISBURG.
On Thursday of last week Judge Orris
for the defense argued the question of
jurisdiction of the Senate for nearly three
hours, pursuing nearly tbe same line that
Mr. Shapley did and of course, arriving at
the same conclusions; and then the
Senate dropped the Boyer case and heard
arguments in the oasee of the Philadelphia
Magistrates in which no evidence had
been taken, to which Senator Hall object
ed saying that the whole matter bad be
come a "political farce comedy."
On Friday the Senate beard Mayer
Sulzberger Esq., of Philadelphia on tbe
question of tbe Governor's jurisdiction in
the Magistrates' cases. He spoke at length
and argued against tbe Governor's action;
and then the Senate adjourned until 8 p.
m. of the following Wednesday.
The Senate met Wednesday evening,
with less than a quorum and immediately
adjourned till naxt day.
It was expected that Gilbert would talk
all day Thursday for the defence, and
Hensel all day Friday for tbe prosecution.
Thb Mavsriok National Bank of Boston,
the largest financial institution in Xew
England, bas been closed by order of the
National Bank Examiner.
Quay Brings Suits.
On Thursday of last week Senator Quay
retained Thos. M. Marshall, E. A. Mon
tooth and John A. Robb Esqs., of Pitts
burg, and brought suit Jfor criminal libel
against the Pittsburg Pott, for publishing
the artiole "A Bardsley—Quay Divide."
On Friday he brought suits against the
Daily Star of Beaver, one for criminal
libel, and the other a civil action for libel
with damages laid at SIO,OOO. He also
wired Comptroller Laoey, as follows:
Hon. E. S. Lacey, Comptroller, Wash
ington, D. C.:
I beg to be informed, at your earlies
convenience, by whom and by whose
authority or permission a certificate of
deposit for $8,877, dated November 26,
1889, indorsed by John Bardsley and by
me, which is among the papers of the
Keystone National Bank, an institution in
the custody of the United States, was de
livered to the Democratic State Committee
to be photographed, lithographed and pub
lished throughout the State by the Demo
cratic press as Is now being done.
M. S. QUAY.
The case against Messrs Barr and Mills
of the Pott was heard by Alderman Mc-
Masters, Saturday, and the defendants
Were held for Court.
At Philadelphia, Monday, Quay's attor
ney entered suit for libel and conspiracy
against Chairman Kerr of the Democratic
State Committee, fixing damages at SIOO-,
000. Suits hare also been entered against
the Mercer Press and Meadville Messen
ger.
35,000 Killed In Japan.
The terrible earthquake in Japan swal
lowed up 25,000 people. Dispatches from
Hiogo put tbe number of dead at that, and
whon communication with the interior of
the ccuntxy is re-established this appalling
figure of death may be Increased.
The shock that occurred on Wednesday
destroyed the towns of Nagoya, Gifu and
OgakL All the public buildings and most
of tbe smaller structures in these places
were thrown down. A fire whioh started
among the wrecked building in Nagoya
completed tbe work of destruction in the
most crowded quarter to the plaoe.
THEN Towns WIPED OUT.
Tbe towns of Okahu, Kano and Kasa
mutsu have been literally wiped out but
very few of tbe unfortunate inhabitants
escaping. At Gifti 5000 bouses were de
stroyed and 0000 persons were killod.
This fearful visitation was repeated
yesterday at Osago, where 18,000 nouses
were wrecked ana 2000 persons perished.
The earthquake wrenched and twisted
fifty miles of railroad in that district so
that it cannot be used. A number of
European residents were engulfed, but
Cook s tourist parties now in the oountry
are safe.
The earthquake shook passed from east
to west. The waters were cast up see
thing, as if drawn from a caldron, and burst
ing upon the lowlands, flooded whole dis
tricts.
The fearful agitation of the water in
creased the horror by flooding the ruins
and drowning hundreds of victims. Tbe
estimate made of the number of killed is
placed at 15,000.
IT is now thought that Cashier Livsey,
who is very much needed at Harrisburg to
explain several matters in connection with
the Bardsley embexslement and tbe inves
tigation of the State treasury, has gone to
England. He is an Englishman and fought
iii the Crimean war, his relatives live in
that country and It is altogether likely he
is among them. Were he iu this country
and not in the most abject fear of discov
ery, from fear that he would be called on
to divulge what he knows, he would
doubtless have been located before this.
The investigation will not be complete un
til Livsey has been placed on the stand
and told what he knows.— Ex
Large Tree.
The Arlington Times says that the largest
tree in Snohomish County, Cal., probably
is a cedar wbich stands a little way from
tbe Kent's prairie and Stanwood road,
about six miles from Arlington. A party
of nine went down from tbat place lately
to satisfy themselves of the truth of what
by them were regarded as exaggerated
reports of its size. The measurement
taken shows it to be 68 feet, being nearly
* 23 feet in diameter. If measured around
tbe roots and knotty protuberanoes the
tree would likely measure 99 feet. The
measurement was as close to tbe body of
the tree as line could be drawn. About 75
feet from tho ground the tree forks into
four immense branches. Just below tbe
forks is a big knothole, and five of tbe
party—Jack Howard, J. F. Shannon, A.
Engberg, Balpb Morris, and Harry Patter-
Son —climbed np and made an exploration
of the inside of tbe tree, which is a mere
shell, though still green. They went down
some 45 feet in the tree, and claim that
there is standing room for at least 40 men
there. A peculiar feature which! they
notioed was that the tree is barked on the
inside tbe same as on the outside.
Wo»i)Bfc> never cease—Boston, tbe
home of culture, beans and John L.
Sullivan, gave 13000 Democratic Majority
Tuesday.
'The Election.
I
.
Ohio Republican.
MeKinley Elected Governor-
NEWS FROM OTHER STATES.
The only state election held in this coun
try last Tuesday which turned distinctly
on National issues, and which therefore
has a National significance was that in
Ohio, and MeKinley, the Republican can
didate for Governor, was elected by
20,000 majority, and the Legislature is also
Republican.
Tt was a hard fought campaign, and its
result places MoKinley in the ironi rank
of Republican leadership.
Governor Campbell congratulated Major
MeKinley, as follows:
William MeKinley, Jr.:
I heartily congratulate you upon your
election. I have no doubt tbat yon will
serve the people ol Ohio with fidelity and
r honesty.
JAMES E. CAMPBELL.
: Msjor McKinley's answer to Governor
I Campbell's telegram was as follows:
Permit me to thank you, most heartily,
for your cordial congratulation*. I rejoice
r that the heated contest through which we
have passed has been free from bitterness
and personalities, and leaves with us feel
ings of mutual regard.

Smith's Philosophy.
Books are better companions than pedan- j ,

when you get tired. I
A man who dislikes the companionship
of the wicked should keep himself pure,
for he cannot shake his own society. ,
What a contemptible disposition it is j
that causes a man to regard another as his ,
superior simple because he does not have
to strugglo so hard for a living.
The best men are those who aro educat- 1

who has suffered is not only a good sympa- 1

therefore most likely to be goodnatured.

first-class Hat and Furnishing
Store can tit. for j ou.
The succc::- s of the past
makes us conlid nt of the present

the depii -sion in business all over
the country we have largely in
creased our lines throughout and
110,'. show a full and comprehen
sive st' ck as can be found in the
cities.
We , have gone right along
fro in the iime we started owing to
the fact that we adhere strictly to
fir t qualit) goods at the very low
est pri' , and wo would rather
miss a sale than misrepresent any
thing.
