—This planet, which we call lhe Earth,
anil the planets that we name Venus anil
Jupiter were very nearly in line last Sat
urday evening about six o'clock, anil bad
you looked towards the southwestern sky
at that time you would have seen Ihe two
brightest stars there so close together as
to alraogt form but one. The orbit of
Venus is inside that of the Earth, but the
orbit of Jupiter is larger than that of the
Earth, and both are now on the other side
of the Sun, Venus is not quite as large as
the Earth; while Jupiter is many times
larger,—the largest of all the planets, the
fastest in circumferential motion, and has
four moons. The surface ot the Earth at
the Equator turns at the rate of 1000 miles
an hour while that of Jupiter turns 27,000
miles an hour. The movements of the
planets in their obits are as regular as
clock work, and though the two referred
to are millions of miles away any good as
tronomer could have told you twenty years
ago when the phenomenon of Saturday
evening would happen.

mental officers present, aud elicited many

McJunkin, had q>iietly purchased a beau
tiful sword for hiui, aud. after tbe inspec
tion exercises were completed, it wa- pre
sented to h m iu a well worded and pleas
ing address by ilaj. Pbipps. Ira, was
taken completely by surprise, but found
words to respond handsomely; there were
some more speeches by the regimental
officers, aud a pleasant and instructive
evening came to au end.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
in the Criminal Court at Pittsburg, Fri
-1 day, ex Market Clerk Hastings of Allegheny
City was found guilty of embezzlement.
In the case of Lucas vs Ba\ shorn, tried
in Pittsburg. last week, the defendant, a
farmer living near Elizabeth amused the
court considerably by exhibiting a novel
method of keeping his accounts. He and
Lucas had considerable business between
them and Lucas claims there is s-ill a bal
lance due him. Bayshorn denied this and
produced his accounts. They consisted of
a number of small sticks on which ho had
made notches for each dollar he owed.
When he paid a bill he broke' off a section
of the stick containing the number of
notches eqnal to the number of dollars
paid. He exhibited the sticks he had kept
with Lucas'occounts on and Gtated that
all the notches to his credit had been
broken off.

The End of "Fitx."
F. C. Fitzsimiuons. confined in a cell iu
the New Orleans jail, cut lii* throat last
Thursday morning and died that night.
The knife n*ed was a small Surgeon's 1 nife
that he kept concealed ia the lining of his
vest.
That morning the Pittsburg detectives
visited the jail. They wanted to see the old
prison as well as the leading attraction in
it and asked to be shown through it before
going to tee Fitz>immons. While they
were in the yard Fitzsiuimons saw them
and his heart sank within him. The
prisoners on the same range say ho seemed
to have lost all hope. He asked a keeper
for some paper and he spent a few minutes
in writing. Then he remarked that he
didn't get much sleep last night and he
would lie down for a short time.
He stretched himself out on one of the
rude cots the ancient prison is supplied
with and covered his head with a blanket.
Before doing this he took the picture of his
little daughter from his pocket and gazed
at it affectionately for a minute or two,
kissing it when he thought he was not
observed. As he lay with his head covered
one prisoner in the same cell remarked to
another that Fiztsimmons was a queer man
Jjing that way when the weather was so
warm. They saw his arm move several
times and heard him groan, but they
thought he was dreaming.
Jnst then the Pittsburg men came up
the stairway and their gaide said: "There's
3 our man lying on that cot." Murphy
walked over to him and asked: "Are you
steepiugt" Fitzsimmons made no reply,
and then Murphy remarked jocosely to his
friends: "He's dead." He raised the
blanket and was horrified to see the blood
streaming trom a dozen wounds in the
murderer's throat.
' My God, he's done it," said Murphy
wu-jii he recove.eu himself.
"Whatf" asked the others in great aston
ishment.
"He has cut his throat."
A telegram was sent to central police
station for the coroner, who is a physician,
and Dr. Kobbina, who was passing in a
cab, was brought up, and he stopped the
flow of blood and sewed up the ugly
wounds, but not before a quart or more ot
blood had been lost by the desperado.
Murphy asked him why he cut his throat,
but all that Fiizsiuimons could say was:
"Let me go, Murphy; let me go."
In one haud ue elutcted the tiny surgical
knife aud in the other the picture of bis

and Fii jsimmons tried to tell a story show

The letter he wrote was as follows.
To 0. 11. Fitzsimuions, Wm. Fitzsimmons,
Esq , Air Gaster, Chief ot Police; Times,
Democrat and Picayune:
To THE CITIZENS OF NEW ORLEANS—
The Sunny South aud the Crescent City
carry none but the most pleasant recol
lection in my memory. Filteen years ago
I made my first visit. I h >ve never found
its citizens other than both charitable aud
humane. True, the last year ol my cx
istenee was tliat of a lamentable character
iu my life. 1 have pursued crime with its
fatal consequences. My liberty is again
jeopardized, aud, as liberty or death is
parauiouut in my mind, 1 prefer the latter,
thus relieving myself of farther mental and
physical pain, disgrace aud slow death,
aud dragging farther in the mire the good
name o] my honorable and respectable
parejts and my relatives My belovtd
wife is the daughter of a New Orleans once
popular au-1 respected citizen. My wife,
Lucy Kebecca Pitzsimons, was improperly
convicted at the Allegheny court-house of
murder of the second degree through the
testimony ol a perjuring detective, a pre
judiced jury and judge and is still in im
prisonment. Knowing that I am about to
hurl myself iuto eternity I do most solemn
ly swear that my wile is as innocent in any
complicity to the crime charged at my
door as a new-born babe. I effected my
escape from the Allegheny county jail be
cause I foresaw my conviction before my
trial began. The bright sunny atmosphere
which surrounded my soul is replaced by
gloom aud a sad heart that only death can
alleviate.
Respectfully,
F. C. FITZSIMMONS.
We Are Bound
To clean out our wraps, blankets and
furs To do so we are offering them
at lower prices than ever known to
the trade. R. & R.
The Readers,
of this paper have learned by experi
ence that we never put in wild ad
vertisements. but merely state facts
in regard to our stock and prices.
RITTEB & RALSTON'S.
What We Have Got.
We don't profess to have the largest
bakery in the world, although we
have the biggest and best equipped
in the state, but we do claim to turn
out the freshest, purest, best crackers
and cakes to be found in the land.
Don't buy crackers made aat dis
tance, shipped here and stored in
musty warehouses; they're not
wholesome. Marvin's are baked
fresh every morning and sent at once
tocustomers. We have no big ware
houses—no use for them. It's all
we can do to bake crackers and cakes
fast enough to fill orders.
Marvin's crackers and cakes are
what you want. You can get them
from jour grocer.
For Sale or Rent.
I will sell my new store-house
property ou Ziegler Ave., South of
the Plate Glass Works, on reasonable
terms; or 1 will rent the residence
part of it, which contains leu rooms
and two halls and is suitable tor a
boarding house
D CUPPS,
312 Ziegler Ave., butler.
Grip Gets the Blame,
But in a great many cases it is not
the grip, but impure, unwholesome
food that is responsible for sickness
Crackers, for insrauce, that have been
transported for a long distance and
stored in damp, mouldy ware houses
are very apt to breed disease. The
way to avoid this is to buy only
fresh, wholesome crackers.made right
here in Pittsburg That's the kind
Marvin's are. Don't be fooled into
buying crackers or cakes that are
said to be "just as good." insist on
having Marvin's and you may be
sure of having the purest, the fresh
est, the best in the market.
Baby McKee's Tears.
A dispatch from Washington says
that Baby McK.ee had a fit of crying
yesterday. The chances are his
nurse had been telling him about
Marviv's royal fruit biscuit, and he
nearly broke his little heart until she
weut to the pautry and got him some
of them. If you want to keep the
babies fat and happy you've got to
feed them Marvin's cakes and crack
ers.
