' The Philadelphia eveuing Star fays,
last week we saw a bright, beautiful boy
standing before a great audience reciting
his exercise with all the promise of fu
ture oratorical eminence. On Wednes
day he was slightly pricked In the knee
with a steel pen, and on Saturday he
died from lock-jaw. The ways of Provi
dence are very mysterious.
Vennoh, the weather prophet, pre
dicts that June will be intensely hot,
July a terrible month for heat, hall
storm, thunder and lightning, with
frosts about the 20th. As he turned out
bo correct a prophet regardlug the cold
snaps in the middle of May and the
first of June, we fear he may be right
again, but hope this time he will miss it.
Republican National Convention.
The action of the Convention which
'convened In Chicago on Wednesday last
was eagerly awaited. As early as Mon
day the number of delegates and other
politicians in Chicago was very large.
The struggle of the different factions for
control of the Convention in the forma
tion of committees was bitter in the ex
treme, but finally resulted in the selec
tion of Hon. Geo. F. Hoar of Massachu
setts for temporary chairman. This
was a victory. for the Anti-Grant men.
The effect of this was to give a better
show to the Blaine men who were opposed
to the enforcement of the unit rule, and
had the Grant men succeeded in getting
the chairman, they would have attempt
ed to enforce that rule, without giving
the convention a chance to vote on it as
individual members.
In the permanent organization the
Anti-Grant men were successful, and
Mr. Hoar was retained as chairman.
The entire week until late on Saturday,
was used in preliminary proceedings
and skirmishing upon reports of com
mittees on rules and credentials. In
this matter too the Grant men lost, and
the chances are that Grant's entire
strength in Convention is less than 300,
and that neither him or Blaine will get
the nomination, though the Sherman
men by throwing their strength to
Blaine could nominate him. It is prob
able however that some other name will
be taken up to harmonize matters, and
Edmunds seems to have the best show.
Balloting is to commence to-day.
The Great Lock-out In Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh, June 2. The iron mills
of Western Pennsylvania are generally
closed to-day. There are about 830 boil
ing furnaces, and the 150 in this imme
diate vicinity went out, and the lock-out
began yesterday. The agreement be
tween masters and men expired June 1,
the failure of the former to concede to
the advance demanded for puddling
caused the shut down. The total num
ber of laborers thus thrown out of em
ployment, including miners, will not
fall far short of 25,000. Only one mill
in this city has signed the scale proposed
by the Amalgamated Iron Association;
Elsewhere in this district there have
signed Brown ,Bonnell & Co., of Youngs-
town, Ohio; Beaver Falls Rolling Mill
Co., Beaver Falls, Pa.; Bradley, Rels &
Co., and the Shenango Iron Company,
of Newcastle, Pa., and the United States
Tin Plate Company, of McKeesport, Ta.
Thus far the indications seem favorable
to the puddlers, but it is by no means
certain that there will be a speedy re
, sumption of business.
Sad Fate cf a Young Girl.
Mary Tlley, a young girl from Allen
town, recently went to live in Philadel
phia as a servant in the family of a
lawyer in that city. One day about a
month ago, she was sent to deliver a
parcel, but never returned to the house.
Diligent search was made for her, but
without avail, no traces of her where
about being obtainable. At first it was
thought that she had returned to her
home at Allentown, but this was a mis
taken supposition. The police sent
notices to different cities and towns, and
word was received from several places
that a girl answering the description
had been seen, but when followed
the clue amounted to nothing, and her
friends became convinced that he had
fallen luto the hands of persons who
would take every precaution to the end
that her whereabouts should not be
discovered. A few days ago, four weeks
since the disappearance, information
was received from the police authorities
of Jersey City to the effect that a young
girl supposed from the description to be
Mary Tlley had been picked up In the
streets and had been taken to the Char
ity Hospital, where she died on Thurs
day night of delirious fever. Every
effort will be made to pleree the mystery
of the girl's disappearance.
A Cruel Stepfather.
Thomas Crowl, of Beaver county, was
discharged with his regiment from the
United States service at the close of the
war, in 1803. He had served three years
In the army, and participated in most
of the great battles, escaping without a
wound. While on the railroad on his
way home, a collision occurred. He
was killed. He left a wife and two
small children. The widow subsequent
ly married Jared Williams. The step
father was abusive to the children.
Three years ago one of them, a girl 10
years old,was turned out of doors by
him, after being beaten. She drowned
herself in a stream near by. The other
child was a son, named Peter. He was
so badly treated by his stepfather that
he quit home and obtained a situation.
Williams carried his persecution of the
boy to his place of employment. Two
weeks ago he succeeded in having Peter
discharged from' his place. The boy re
turned home and bade his mother good
by. On Sunday morning he was fonnd
dead in a barn half a mile away. He
had shot himself through the heart.
Saved by His Watch.
A singular accident happened to Aloiv
zo Tiffany, a workman in the box ftic-
tory, the other day. He was running a
bonrd machine. Bearing on a trifle too
hard, the crank broke, and he fell over
on the auger, which is operated by
steam power, and, of course kept on as
if nothing had happened. His clothing
was caught by the auger, which wound
the cloth around itself until it came in
contact with his watch, boring a hole
into it, tearing out the works and then
breaking oft, which released Tiffany.
But for the breaking of the auger it
would have gone on and bored a hole
right through hi:u, there having been
no one near to assist him. Oswego (2v.
Y.) Palladium.
Almost a Riot.
At Baltimore, Monday afternoon,
some of the negroes who followed the
colored Post G. A. R., went into a beer
saloon near the cemetery and obtained
beer, which they refused to pay for.'
The proprietor made an effort to eject
them, when they raided the place, took
what they pleased, and were stoning the
house when the police arrived. These
were assailed, and in turn drew their
pistols and fired, killing one man and
wounding several others, which quelled
what looked likely to be a riot.
Did Not Pay the Printer.
A paper in New Haven, Conn., sued a
man for forty-three dollars, due for
papers furnished. The defendant set up
the plea that he had several times order
ed the paper discontinued ; but the court
held that, under the laws of the State
and of the United States, a publisher
may continue to send his paper until all
delinquencies were sctttled up, find that
the parties to whom the papers are sent
are liable for all copies so sent, and
judgment was rendered for the amount
and costs.
Contagious Hydrophobia.
Mrs. Mary Karuey, a laundress at No,
31 Prospect, street died last week, and is
supposed to have been a victim of hydro,
phobia. She was never bitten, but con
tracted the disease from her husband,
who died of it seven months ago. The
husband was never bitten, but once
allowed a dog to lick a wound on his
foot. Philadelphia Star.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C, May 20, 1880.
The colossal niiud of the average Congress
man is in an emotional state of disintegration
over, to him, momentous questions t What
shall I do to Justify myself In the opinion of
my constituents for the fully and Imbecility of
my course during the present session of Con
gress, aud how can I vote for an early adjourn
ment without doing something for th coun
try ? The mind of a Congressman Is generally
well regulated, seldom distraught with small
things, and oscillates between his salary and
pabulum for his clamorous constituency In the
shape of Agricultural Reports aud diseases of
swine with the regularity of a pendulum. But
now your M. C. Is torn up, the isothermal lines
have shifted, the weather is as hot as it is
convenient to have it, be has done nothing but
draw bis salary with surprising regularity, and
has actually used up what should have been
an Important session in frivolous debates over
rules. Nearly three months time has been
s pent in a querellous fight over rules I said
your M. C, of course I do not wish to be
understood, as meaning particularly your Con,
gressman, for I have no moral doubt but what
he has worked royally, but mean the one you
opposed, and who, overriding the wishes of a
free people, was elected. He Is tho fellow and
a right scurvy shyster he is.
Ab I have intimated, Congress wants to ad.
journ badly, but at present has not found
sufficient excuse for a concurrent vote, as the
Chicago Convention will undonbtedly noml
nate Bome person who will be distasteful to the
Democrats, they will undoubtedly aftor tho
Convention, desire to prolong the session for
partizao purposes, while the Republicans, if
the Democrats do as I have Indicated, will
allow no adjournment until sometime after the
Cincinnati Convention, as it is just possible,
that the Democrats will nominate some one
who cannot be supported by Republicans. The
early adjournment idea has been fostered by
two highly respectable "dark horses," Garlleld
and Kandali, both of whom have evinced con
siderable solicitude for the liberties of tho
people, in the shape of protective tariff laws,
and have thus far only been defeated by a
combination of Congressmen who are Interest
ed in appropriations for public buildings, and
who wore antagonized by tho Appropriation
Committee, which latter Committee arrogates
to itself the full powers of Congress.
