Mr, Adolph Home, who recently
died In Philadelphia, leaves among other
legacies $10,000, to Oen. Grant.
Thk GovERNon of Connecticut gives
the young men of that Btate Borne good
advice In regard to moving away. He
advises those who have land In their
own right to remain at home and in
crease Its value, rather than go West
and risk the development of a new
country. This advice Is also applicable
to Pennsylvania young men.
An over loaded grain elevator at
Chicago broke down on Thursday last,
entailing a loss of $50,000. There are few
people who will have any sympathy for
the louvre. A speculation in wheat
has kept the market irregular and fever
ish all winter, causing loss to many
small dealers, while it has been no gain
to the farmers.
A hill has passed the New York leg
islature empowering women in that
State to act as school trustees, or to take
part in the election of tboae officials.
The cause of woman suffrage is getting
along. Only the other day the ladles
were made eligible to sit as members in
the legislature of Iowa, and New York,
in the action just taken, has but follow
ed the example set by Massachusetts.
Manufactures of Cotton goods
cay that Prints and Standard Muslins
will have to advance till the retail price
is the same as before the war, which was
12i cts per yard. The recent rapid rise
in price would seem to Indicate that the
time was not far off when their predic
tions will prove true. Already the ad
vance on this class of goods is about
thirty three per cent., and manufactures
will accept orders only at value at time
of delivery.
The cjreat advance In paper has
compelled many of the low priced jour
nals to advance their price, though some
have endeavored to meet the trouble by
using an Inferior quality of paper. The
paper makers, claim the great advance is
due to the high price of chemicals used
in the manufacturing. We think much
of the trouble is due to the desire of the
paper makers to get rich at the expense
of the public. Whatever may be the
cause of the high price in paper, it en
tails a serious loss upon newspaper pub
lishers, and has had the effect to bring
up the question of removing the tariff
duty from foreign paper. A better way
would be to admit chemicals and bleach
ing powders free of duty,
The' friends of Mr. Geo. H. Stuart, of
Philadelphia, have completed their trio
ute to his worth and integrity by found
ing " The Merchants' National Bank,"
and electing him as its President. . This
was also intended as a protest against
his recent exclusion from the Presidency
of the Mechanics' National Bank. It
was originally intended that the capital
stock subscriptions of the new bank
should not exceed $300,000, but it was
found at the meeting that over $150,000
of subscriptions in excess of the original
amount were offered, when it was re
solved to increase the capital stock to
$000,000. Several large subscriptions
were also tendered from New York, in
cluding Wm. E. Dodge, Rev. Potter (of
Grace Church) and others, but they had
to be refused, as the subscriptions were
largely in excess of the amount desired.
Some had to be cut down and others had
to be ruled out altogether.
Bold Robbery.
The vault of Westport (Conn.) na
tional bank was broken into at 3 o'clock
Wednesday morning, and between $3,
000 and $4,000 were stolen. The watch
man of the village was acoosted at about
2 o'clock by two men, who knocked him
down and gagged him before he had time
to give an alarm. Three other men then
appeared, and the five carried the watch
man across the bridge to the bank,
where, after forcing open the outer doors,
the prisoner was locked up in a closet.
The burglars then blew open the door of
the bank vault, which is on the first
floor.
The explosion was so violent that the
plate glass froDt of the bauk office was
blown Into the street, the neighbors were
aroused, and an alarm of fire was raised.
By the time the cause of the noise was
discovered the five men had disappeared,
taking with them the money used for
the daily business of the institution
about $3,500, Inside the vault was a
steel safe containing valuable bonds and
a large sum of money. This safe had not
been touched.
The Rabcr Murders to be Hung.
The supreme court, sitting In Philadel
phia, ot) Monday rendered a decision af
firming the degree of the criminal court
of Lebanon county in the case of Israel
Brandt and Joslah Hummel who were
convicted in August last of the murder
of Joseph Baber. Charles Drews and
Frank Stechler have already been hung
for the crime, and George Zechman, af
ter having been once convicted, was
granted a new trial and acquitted. Henry
F. Wise, who turned state's evidence,
has been sentenced to be hanged and will
probable be executed with Brandt and
Hummel. The present ruling of the
supreme court disposes of the matter and
nothing can now save the necks of the
doomed men but a pardon.
Terrible Nltro-glyoerlne Accident.
Bradford, Ta., February 0. This
morning at 9 o'clock Howard Hackett
and JameB Feeney started from this
city for Coleville in a sleigh, carrying
one hundred pounds of nltro-glycerlne.
Four miles from Bradford the sleigh up
set, which caused an explosion of,fhe
compound. Feeney Jumped from the
sleigh just as it was going over. Hack
ett was thrown CO feet from the scene
and instantly killed, his body being hor
ribly mangled. Ills right leg was shat
tered luto a mass of shapeless flesh, and
his side and shoulders were shockingly
torn. A hole was torn in the frozen
road 20 feet In length, and 15 in width.
In this excavation Feeney was found
covered with debris, but still alive. His
narrow escape from Instant death is re
garded as almost a miracle. At present
the exact nature of his injuries cannot
be ascertained. The sleigh was blown
to atoms, and both horses were killed.
The house of Charles Seeley, a one
and a half-story frame building, fifty
feet distant, was shaken to pieces by the
concussion. Mrs. Seely was sitting in
the house at the time but escaped serious
injury. A large frame dwelling house
occupied by Henry Dolloff, eighteen
rods away, was also completely wrecked
hut did not fall. Mrs. DollofT, and her
six children, were in ths building at the
time but they suffered no further Injury
than a terrible shock. Windows, mir
rors and wall ornaments were smashed
to atoms. A bam was also wrecked by
the concussion.
Miscellaneous News Items.
t3P A workman la a. Pittsburg mill,
while working at a swiftly revolving
grind stone on Monday, had his hand
caught in tbo frame work and pressed
tightly against the stone, and before ho
was released three fingers of the Imprison
ed band were ground almost entirely off.
A singular homicide is reported
from Rutherford County N. C, A negro
man, while sitting iu front of an illicit still
house, was approachod by a white man
and asked for the loan of his knife. The
knife was given the latter, when be coolly
proceeded to cut the negro's throat aud
made his escape.
t3T The following message, intended to
break bad news gently, was sent to the
widow of a man who had just been killed
by a railroad accident : " Dear madam
Your husband la unavoidably detained for
the present. To-morrow an undertaker
will call upon you with the full particu
lars." 1
t$T The cane of two girls, 8 and 13
years of age, now to the Van Buren Coun
ty, Mich., poor-house, is peculiar. The
mother lost , her palate through scarlet' fe
ver. Her speech thus affected, and the
family living in the woods, has become
literally the mother tongue of her chil
dren. While those girls understood each
other, their talk is unintelligible to 'those
about them.
Aaron Barnes of indopendeuce,Io
wa, was advised to go to the poor-house,
as he was old, infirm and destitute ; but be
sa id : "I'd die first," and hobbled away
from the village-store toward his lonely
shanty. He was not seen after that for a
week, and was then found dead, from hun
ger and cold, by a messenger who brought
the news that his claim for 1,G00 pension
money had been allowed.
tW A. dispatch from Princess Anue,
Md., to a New York paper says there is
"indignation and excitement over the dis
covery made to-day that Sidney Shores' a
wealthy farmer, aged, 45 years, residing
near Dames Quarter, had secretly married
his step-daughter, a ohiid of 13 years, who
is also his first cousin. ' Shores is reputed
to be worth $100,000, and has lived in
good style ou a farm of several hundred
acres near Dames for nearly fifteen years."
tW About twelve o'clock Tuesday night
a party of men with blackened and mask
ed faces entered the dwelling of the some
what notorious Donnelly family, at Lucan,
Ontario, and murdored the father, mother,
son and a neioe. A small boy named Con.
nor took refuge under a bed and escaped
unhurt. The party then set fire to the
limine, which, together with the bodies of
the murdered Inmate, wore totally con
sumed. Another son, residing about three
miles from the homestead, was called to
his door about tbo same hour and war shot
dead. The township Is wild with exolte
meut. tW Tramps dou't ofton go to church,
but one did so at Corona, Long Island, the
other eveulng. It was a Ca'thollo
church, aud tratnpy lay down behind a
pew and went to sleep. During the night
burglars broke In, and their operations
awoke the tramp. Thinking they were
ghoRts, he gave a yell, which brought the
priest, who was asloep in the parochial
mansion. The burglars also mistook the
tramp for a ghost, aud hurried o(T swear
ing they would never rob a church again.
The priest gave the tramp, some old clothes
as a reward.
tW A Justice In Charlotte, 8. C, was
dumfounded reoently to see a pretty lit
tle woman, dragging a man after her, en
ter his office and walk boldly up to the
magisterial desk. She led the unwilling
prisoner by means of a scarf about his
neck, and ever and anon gave both scarf
and neck an cnefgetlo jerk. Justice Da
vidson was informed by tho fair one, who
spoke in melliflously sweet tonop, that the
man had failed to put In an appearanoe on
the day fixed for tbolr wedding. " I wont
him to be fined for disappointing me," she
added, " and I'v a great notion to sue
him for breach of promise." The sheepish
looking swain sorewod bis oourage to the
sticking polut just then and inquired
whether it wouldn't be better to have a
wedding right there. The damsel consent
ed aud Justice Davidson smilingly married
them.
