WASHINGTON NOTES.
Two anti-trnst bills prepared by At
torney General Knox were introduced
in the House, last Thursday, by Mr.
Jenkins, chairman of the Judiciary
committee. One ameads the Sherman
ami-trust law, the chief feature being
a provision that it shall be unlawful for
any person to offer, grant or give, or
solicit, accept or receiye a rebate, con
cession or service for transportation of
any property in interstate or foreign
commerce whereby such property is
transported at a less rate than that
named in the published tariff of tbe car
rier, a fine of $5,000 bein<r provided, and
that the Circuit courts of the United
States are invested with jurisdiction to
preyent such rebates.
Miss Mattie Boyd, the legless post
mistress of Centreville, Ky., lost her of
fice by marrying. She lost her legs in
a railroad accident 20 years afeo, and
has been P. M. almost ever since.
There was a clash in the Senate Tues
day between the representatives of op
posite ideas in the Repulican party,
those who favor the "lowa idea" and
want a modification of the tariff rates
through reciprocity treaties, and those
who stard firmly on the protective
principle and have been denominated
the "stand patters."
It was during the discussion of a joint
resolution to place anthracite coal on
the free list that Senator Dolliver of
lown made a speech that aroused the
senate and created more excitement
than has been witnessed in that body
during the session. He strongly advo
cated the passage of reciprocity treaties
and claimed that the principle of a re
ciprocity treaty had become as much a
part of the protective system of the
United States as any part of the tariff
act. Mr. Dolliver said that he resented
the manner in which the senator from
Maine, Mr. Hale, had denied the charge
made on the Democratic side to the ef
fect that Mr. Dingley had placed the
tariff rates high in order that they
might be lowered by reciprocity treat
ies. He said that Mr. Hale had left the
impression on those who heard him that
a hideous charge had been made against
Representative Dingley.
"Mr Dingley did put duties up for
ths express purpose of having them
bronght down by means of reciprocity
treaties," said Dolliver defiantly.
POLITICAL.
Our two U. S. Senators, Commission
er Durham, President Scott of the Sen
ate, Speaker Walton of the House, State
Senators Grady, Snyder and Keyser,
and others held a conference at Atlan
tic City, last Friday, over the 120 legis
lative appointments and the make up of
the standing committees of the two
Houses. The conference was held at
the McNichol College, and those pres
ent were not registered at any of the
hotels.
According to the Pittsburg papers
the P. R. R. will line up with the Oli
vers and the old organization men for
Haymaker; and Quay will help the Big
lows and Hays in the fight for the Re
cordership.
Politics in Allegheny are becoming as
warm as in Pittsburg.
"It is now up to the people of Alle
gheny to choose between a reputable
and' honorable citizen and a rascally
rogue for'. Recorder of the city," de
clared Judge Elliott Rodgers, of Com
mon Pleas court No. 2, at an enthusias
tic meeting held by the Republicans of
the Eleventh ward, Allegheny, Tuesday
night. Judge Rodgers delivered an ad
dress to the large crowd which assembl
ed in Schwerd's hall, on McClure ave.
An effort made by members of the
Citizens-Democrat party, headed by
George W. Bottles, who has been pioin
ised the captaincy of police under
James G, Wyman in the event that the
latter is elected city recorder, to secure
an indorsement of Mr. Wyman, inspired
the speech of Judge Rodgers, which
was animated throughout.
Local Politics.
The contest for the borough offices is
warming up notwithstanding the cold

The Varner Case.
The trial of Mrs. Letitia Eagle, charg
ed with murdering lier ward, Edna
Varner. at the family home in Avalon
last spring, began in Pittsburg Tuesday,
and will likely develop the most inter
esting array of witnesses and testimony,
with reference to the ability of the hu
man body to move and act after a mor
tal wound has been inflicted, which has
ever been collected in the history of
the criminal courts.
Mrs. Eagle is charged, under the in
dictment which has been found against
her, with firing at the girl a bullet of
32 caliber wh'ch entered her left breast,
penetrated her heart and caused instant
death. The revolver with which the
fatal work was said to have been done
was found on the mantel in the room
where the body lay. At the time that
she was found the girl was facing in
the opposite direction from the mantel
where the revolver lay. The Common
wealth argued from this that tbe girl
could not have committed suicide, a &
was at first reported to the coroner.
The contention was made that the girl
could not have come to her death by
her own hand, but that she had been
killed by another. Acting on this infor
mation County Detective Robert G.
Robinson went before Alderman John
Groetzinger and made an information
against Mrs. Eagle charging her with
murder. She was arrested and gave
bail for a hearing and finally for trial.
The bond has been renewed several
times and the trial of the case delayed
from time to time until the present
term of court, when District Attorney
John C. Haymaker notified his assistant,
John S. Robb, Jr., to get the case dis
posed of.
The Commonwealth will attempt to
prove by expert testimony that it would
be impossible for a human being: to turn
as the body was found and walk a dis;
tance of 10 feet away from the revolver
after such a wound had been inflicted.
It will also be shown that the girl had
been the victim of a criminal operation.
It will also be shown in behalf of the
State that the Varner girl had on sev
eral occasions previous to her death
complained that she was unhappy in the
Eagle home and that she wrote to the
society in Pittsburg which took her to
the house and bound her out there, say
ing that she desired to leave.
The defense, which will be conducted
by Attorney J. Scott Ferguson, will be
confined to a rebuttal of these facts,
bringing in several side lights on the
girl's behavior during the time she was
in Avalon and before she came there.
Witnesses from her home, in Petrolia,
will also be called in rebutting the
State's evidence. The desense itself,
however, will be confined, after rebut
tal, to a scientific exposition of the abil
ity of persons to move after thev have
suffered from a mortal wound.
Yesterday the case'was continued till

IteininlHccnces of the Ol«l Stage
Coacli l>ays.
I was born in Allegheny county, in
what was called the old Hays mansion
It was a hotel and it stood on the old
Pittsburg and Erie turnpike, 11 miles
north of Pittsburg. My earliest recol
lection is of a stage coach and four
horses. The hotel had a large swing
ing sign with a stage coach and four
horses painted on it and the inscription
below was
PEACE AND POVKRTY.
But tbe sign certainly belied its name,
for there was plenty to eat there.
Gilmore Campbell said to me not long
belore be died, "Alexander, when I got
out of the old stage at your father's, at
daylight in the morning, I conld eat a
yard of sausage."
I can remember the names of a great
many persons that rode in the old stage
on the old pike, when I was old enough
to drive on the plank road. They were
John Negley, Sr., John Negley, Jr.,
Felix Negley, Wm. and Gilmore Camp
bell, Dnulap McLaughlin, Engene Fer
rero David Walker, David Dcngal, Jacob
Zeigler. Wm. Bozel, L. Z. Mitchel, Mr.
Muntz, Jacob Faller, Samuel Purvis,
Curt and John Smith, Jerry Mcßride,
Henry Heineman, Lewis, Barny and
Simp Walker, and, as they say on the
vendue bills, others "too numerous to
mention."
Of the drivers, that drove on the old
pike, as far as I know, there are but
two living—Nicholas Hlupe of Jefferson
twp. ami Michael KnaufT of Glade
Mills. The old drivers that have pass
ed away are John and Mike Teets,
Charles Hays, Joe and John Grtjbbs,
Creighton Ramsey, Colby Dick Crozier,
Crist Stoner, Jake, Eli and Isaac Hart
zell, Gordon and Win. Brown, John and
Abe Kiskaddon, Abe Austin, Billy
Gray, Archie L«'e. Israel Colt, John
Burkhard. Dutch Mike and French Joe
—there never was known an Irish stane
driver.
John Seth—there was a great joke on
.Seth —it was this. He had an impede
ment in his speech, there was a man in
Butler who kept a hat store, he too had
an impediment in his speech, they were
strangers, there was a style of hat
then called Castor hats, Seth wanted to
bny one and he said. "Mr. G-G-Gil
c-c-crist I w-w-wa a C-C-C-tor h-hat.'
"D-d-damn yon, 1-I*ll k-k-kickyou into
the street."
So innch for the old drivers. "Peace
to their ashes."
I met Mr. James Addis of New Castle
in the CITIZEN office recently. We had
never met, but we compared notes. He
was keeping a toll gate in Stewartstown,
now Etna, when I was born.
The drivers who drove on the plank
road were Billy Mitchell of Butler,
Howe Lyon of Butler, Dan Bnlford.
Billy Powell, Lot Jewell. Arthur and
Tom Hay 8, Isaac, Andy and Sam Mill
iron. Alex and John Williamson. Jake
Cricks, John Reed, Sim Yeagle, J. Mc-
Gowau, Tom Cunningham. Sile Dar
rah, Jas. Harbison and your humble
servent.
The old wagoners that hauled from
Butler to Ujttsburg were Dave Bean.
Rhody Waltermyer, Col. Dickson, Jon
athan Plummer. Martin Ramsey, Alex
Troutman and Wm. Richey.
When my father and Arthur McGill
first contracted to carry the mail from
Pittsburg to Erie they rode on horse
back to Washington, D. C. to bid for
the mail. They would be gone a month,
that is eighty years ago; people wonld
not like to travel from Butler to Pitts
burg in that style now and get out and
get rails and pry the old stage out of the
mud holes. People were just as happy
then as now.
In the string of one year when the
mud was pretty well dried up with only
a hole here and there the stage had
stalled in one of them, Dan Rice's cir
cus came along and the keeper motion
ed to the elephant to push the stage out
of the hole and he put his head against
the stage and heaved it out
Father had a pet bear, a very large
black fellow and when the weather was
fine he was tied to a large tree close by:
the dinner table was set in the long
dining room for the stage pass?ngers,
the bear got loose, a table was not com
plete those times unless it had large
plates of honey, here and there all over
the table, he jumped on the table, drew
the long chain after him, he hauled the
dishes off on the floor, the table looked
like the besom of destruction, and there
were some words said then that are not
down on the Sunday School catalogue.
I need hardly pay tha*; there was no
honey left, bears love honey.
I often wonder what has become of
the fine horses of those days; there was
a breed of horses then called the Con
nestoga breed, they were fit for both
stage and wagon, they would weigh
from 15 to 10-hundred pounds, had
both weight and action. A great curse
fell upon this country when Wash
Bales of Freeport brought old Tom
from England, with his dinner-plate
feet, and legs as thick and round as a
churn and ruined our fine horses. He
exhibted him at the Butler County Fair
the fall of '59. There was a drunken
fellow there, he said to the keeper of
the horse, "you have brought an old
ran down dray horse to palm off on us
hoosiers, but yon can't come it, Judge,
without a horse."
It was a fine sight to see the coaches
leave Pittsburg every morning on the
different routes. Twenty left every
day for Philadelphia on the old Greens
burg pike; there was an opposition line
and the drivers had a fine time. lacing
One line had spears driven in the ends
of the lead bars to prevent the other
line from passing.
Simp Walker ran the last stage coach
into Butler. I think in the year '73, it
was buried, a procession following it
An old stage coach stood in the rear
of where Troutiran's store now is,under
a shed. Gilmore Campbell often told
me to go and look at it. He said it
would remind me of old stage times
"It stands in a stable yard under the
eaves, "*
Leaning to one side and covered with
leaves,
It was once the pride of the gay and the
fair,
But it has now gone to ruin—that old
stage there."

years who by reason of overwork ra*i

nervous and did not sleep well at night.
He needed lifting up and I got some of
Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills for him at

a short time will put him right again.

which proved fatal H<-r death was
made harder to those who loved her
best by her continued promise of recov

had requested all to retire, and later
her mother, on going to her bed-side,
fonud her asleep in death—her sweet
sonl having taken flight from the tur
moils of this life, to the home beyond
the skies—and though she has gone

KX GOVERNOR D. H. HASTINGS.
Former Governor Daniel Hartman
Hastings died at his home in Bellefonte,
last Friday morning. He had been ill
but a few days. A severe cold, which
developed into pleurisy and pneumonia,
was the cause of death. Be went home
from Philadelphia Sunday and refused
the entreaties of his family that a
physician be summoned. The ex-Gov
ernor, however, believed that his illness
was of no consequenoe and that he
would soon be well again. He seemed
better on Thursday, but a sadden
change came over him that might, and
be died next morning. The popularity
he gained by his work at Johnstown,
immediately after the great Hood made
him Governor, aud bis record as Gov
ernor was good, but his administration
did not suit Quay, and he retired from
office out of favor with the state
machine.
