It seems that the late quarrel at Eber vale, between Lucius Robinson and Thomas Brown, over a game of craps, resulting in the death of Robinson and the conviction of Brown for murder, has had no effect upon the colored men of that place, and they still continuo their favorite game of craps. On Tuesday evening two of these men named Jhos. Marshall and John Mont gomery sat down to have a friendly game, says the Standard. Things went along smoothly until nearly the close of the game, when the deadly fire water began to get in its work. It seems that Marshall detected Montgomery cheating and told him so. This angered Montgomery so that soon a quarrel ensued, and the game was closed by Montgomery ripping out a razor and catching Marshall in the neck, inflicting an ugly wound. Upon realizing what he had done, Montgomery at once made his escape and has not been heard of since. Dr. Cole was called upon yesterday to attend the injuries of the wounded man, and said last evening that, while the wound is a dangerous one he would nevertheless recover. Tito Successful Applicant*.

The committee on oxcursion of the Citizens' Hose Company held a meeting last night to consider the feasibility of postponing the excursion to Oneida park, as the dato selected, July 29, has been engaged by Owena Council, No. 47, Daughters of Pocahontas, for an excur sion to Glen Onoko. The committee could not arrive at a definite decision. They will submit the matter to the company as a body at the regular meeting, which will be held Wednesday evening next. Dieean trade, and it is even intimated that manilla ropo has been offered abroad at prices which would almost permit its ' being reimported from Great Britain to greater advantago than it could bo bought in New York." As the duty on imported cordage aver aged over 20 per cent in 1892, and the cost of transportation is considerable, this means that the manufacturers aro Belling about 25 per cent lower to for eigners than to stay at home Americans. This is an old trick, practiced by dozens of trusts, and well illustrates the bless- Ings of "protection" to those who do no„ have it. In leaving duties on articles made by trusts we are inviting fraud, depreda tion and ruin. If we sow the wind, wo must expect to reap tho whirlwind.— Byron W.
