He had complained of pain in the cheat since Saturday. He was 01 years old, and leaves a wife and daughter and two sons. CLOTHING . In a history of his life said the American people want to be humbugged. Is this a fact or is it false? We are sorry to say that in a very great degree it is true. There tire some people that no matter how well they are treated in a ligitimate One Price Store, stil! want to go where they are sure to pay a good round profit the on the suit they buy and must likely pay profit on somebody else's clothes. We leave it to you to decide. Is it not better to deal where you know your dollar buys as much as any man's dollar, or is it best to deal where you kuow you will bo humbugged. Where they have no regard for truth and when you pay them all they ask they are mad because they did not ask more.

In keeping with this claim a number of foreigners have been placed under arrest. Among them are three Americans. Iho matter went so far that every person having occasion to visit the Legation win ordered to obtain a permit before lie was allowed to go into tlie place. To enforce thi.-t rule a force of polico was put ou guard outside tho Legation. This lasted until lasi Friday, when Minister Egan entered a most vigorous protest to the whole proceeding.

A party of Jews from tho liovernmenl of I'edolski tells an interesting story of their expulsion. Thoy were farmers and shopkeepers, and immediately upon the receipt of the order for them to go to the Palo of Settlement, they were at oatee turned out of their houses They did not even get an offer for their dwell lugs and the contonts, and whole farms wore in this way takeu possession of by peasantry who never had the slightest title to or claim upon tho property. Tho Vienna papers earnestly advise tho Jews to go back to llussia again, on tho ground that their numbers are too great for wholesale emigration. 'Iho party from Podolsk! are no'w on their way to tfca Unitod Statos. THE ORIGINAL AND POPULAR Clayton North, Mr. Kemble was convicted in tho court of Dauphin County, at Harrleburg, on the charge o£ bribing member* of the Legislature to vote for the bill, which became known as the Riot bill. Strong effort.* hail been mado lo secure his pardon before the case enme up for trial, but they were unsuccessful. Kemble then escaped from the State, but it was an unnecessary step, as immediately after sentence had been passed on him he was pardoned by the Board of Pardons through the instrumentality of • friend.  Kemble worked hard on bahalf of the company. It was aftcwards claimed, however, that of the $3,-OUU,000 one-third whs to be divided between Mr. Kemble and his assistants in recognition of services rendered.Tho Pennsylvania Railroad sought to obtain from the Legislat ure an allowance of $11,000,000 ou account of tho riots of 1377. Following is tho communication, which introduces Mr. Evans in a clearcut, forcible and unmistakable manner: My Dear Titian: Tills will Introduce to you Mr. Uenrge O. Ei ni", who has a claim of some inriifnhtil" aualn-t tho Government. Treat, him as yo'.i would inc. lie understands addition, division an I silenve. The letter was not made public for some years ufter it reached Mr. Coffey. In 1878, Mr. Kemble, with three others, was conviottd of a crime which would have caused his imprisonment, had it not been for the timely intercession of a friend who was then a member of the Board of Pardons. Mr. Evans in his capacity as fiscal agent of Pennsylvania had been commissioned to collect a cluim from the Government. This claim was to reimburse Pennsylvania for certain bounty money that had boon allowed to the State's account. Like the Rev. Mr. Burchard, who died recently, Mr. Kemble partly climbed to fame on an epigram. It consisted of three words, which attracted much public attention at tho time of their utterance. It was early in the seventies that ho had occasion to send a letter to Titian J. Coffey of Washington, introducing George O, Evans. In 1865 ho was elected State Treasurer of Pennsylvania, and held the offico until 1808. Tho house was remarkable in that it was the first institution of the kind in this country. Subsequently tho firm be • enmo Thompson, Potter & Kemble. In 1803 Mr. Kouible withdrew from tho firm and started out once more for himself by acting as manager of the lace and embroidery department of S. Hallowell & Co., Philadelphia. But his passion for change had not abated, and he next went into tho law business. Then, during tho financial panic of 1857, ho quit tho law business entirely and engaged in the manufacture pf brushes, until the civil war broke otit. He was then appointed stamp agent of 'Philadelphia by the President. About this timo Mr. Kemble, after many vicissitudes in business, bogan to accumulate wealth. Ho was ono of tho originators of tho Union Passenger Railway Company of Philadelphia, and from tho timo of his connection with' this company ho has been constantly interested in enterprises of a similar naturo, being at the time of his death president of Uio Philadelphia Traction Company and the Union Passenger Railway Company. Besides this, he was for a long time president of ths People's Bank of Philadelphia, and was an extensive shareholder in soveral other banks and financial institutions. He attended tho Presbyterian Academy of Woodbury until he was 11 years of age. He then went to Philadelphia, where ho was employed in a silk house. Ho soon after entered the laco house of J. It. Jeffrey & Son of Now York. Before he beeame of ago ho started in business for hln)self at Shannonville, Pa. Next year, when he came of age, he enteredinto partnership with ono Thompson, forming the firm Thompson <fc Kemble, jobbers and importers of laces and embroideries. William TI. Kembla was born in Woodbury, N. J., and was thb oldest son of Samuel apd Elizabeth Kembla. His mother is still alive. Jersey's Inter-State Fair Trenton, N.
