Lebanon, Fa., June 1.—Willaim Showers, a oigarmaker, 89 years old, has been arrested on suspicion of making away with his two little grandsons, the illegitimate offspring of • daughter who is dead. It is alleged that Showers, who Is a widower, had a chance to marry provided he would send the children away from his home. He started in a wagon with them, ostensibly for Tower City, but came back, saying the boys had run away from him on the road. Later he told several conflicting stories about the disposition he had made of the little ones. The community 1b much agitated over the matter. had mado of tho little ones. First he said he had given the boys in charge of a man who would give them a good home In Texas. Then he reported that he had driven the boys to Tower City and given them into the chargo of a farmer. Later he said that while on the way to Tower City he sent the boys back for something he had lost on the road, and they had been kidnapped by tramps in the vicinity of Indian town gap, a dangerous place, where old Joe Raber was murdered for his 930,000 insurance money. Showers declared upon his solemn oath that he did not know the whereabouts of the children, and tears streamed down his cheeks as ho called upon God as his witness. Many of the officials who held conversation with Mm were inclined to believe him. Still the district attorney was not satisfied, and ordered a strict search of Showor's premises. Scottdale, Fa., June L—Coke strikers made an attempt yesterday morning to blow up a coal shaft at Davidson with dynamite while four men wer» at work.- The "dynamite was thrown down the shaft and exploded without injuring the men, although tho sides of the shaft were damaged. The workmen quickly ran from the mine and were then fired upon by four men. More than a dozen shots were fire J, but none of them took effect. The executive board of the Miners' association are now in session at Everson considering the strike. It is thought measures will be taken to secure a conference with the operators, and that the strike will bo settled in a few days. Paris, June 1.—Fifty thousand people shouting at the top of their lungs "Vive Boulangeri Vive Boulangerl" came swarming into the Place de l'Opera at 9 o'clock last night, causing tremendous excitement and oommotion.

TUrkisbchq, June 1 —It has keen discovered by Gov. Beaver that the name of George Handy Bmltb, President of the Senate, is not aflliod to the General Revenue Act, and it therefore fails under the Constitution. Many appropriations baaed on the increased reveaue will suffer In consequence. Governor Beaver spent a whole day in consideration of the measure and took up his pen to sign it, when he discovered the absence of President Smith'* name. The Opera house was magnificently illuminated and covered with flags and trophies bearing the inscriptions, "Patrie" and "Devoir." From the Military olub at the corner of the Rue de la Paix an l the Avenue de l'Opera, directly opposite the Grand Opera house, three batteries of electric lights shone full upon the facade of the latter and Its gilded lyres, crowns and statues, setting forth the magnificent buildings in dazzling splendor. After making a desperate effort to secure the support of the material men at the beginning of the lockout the master masons have suddenly come to the conclusion that they hive no longer any need of their support. When asked if the material men were still standing by the Masons' association President Downey replied: "What do we care whether they stand by us or notl Let them soli as much and as often as they can. Whom arc they going to sell to! We control ninetcuths of the work in the city and we won't buy of them. Let the brick yards start up. The master masons will make no attempts to stop them. Four years ago we had a like trouble, and material was offered to all who wished to buy and none was sold. We but the bricklayers, and will beat them now." Philadelphia, June 1.—The Master Masons' association have decided to lock out their union stonecutters to-day and keep them out until they agree to cease interfering with the non-union employes. Over 800 men will be affected by the lockout. Just how the omission occurred It !• difficult to conjecture, but it might have happened in several ways. The discoyery will necessitate the paring d6wn of a large number of appropriations wfcieh were baaed on the c.timatfd increase of revenue under the new law. It was calculated that $1,000,000 would be brought into the coffers of the State through the operations of this act, and many an item in the general appropriation bill will fall under the veto axe of Gov. Beaver. Nrw York, June L—The track, weather and attendance at Brighton Beaoh, fair. First raoe, five-eighths of a mile; Manselle first, Falsenote second, Maid of the Mist third; time; 1 K)5%.

The following report of the affair was received from the superintendent of the works by the coke syndicate: "About 8:80 o'clock yesterday morning an attempt was made to blow up the shaft building of the Pittsburg and Cleveland Gas, Coal and Coke company at Davidson station, on the Southwest Pennsylvania railroad, about three-quarters of a mile north of Connel&ville. A bomb made of gas pipe fllledjwith dynamite and plufved up with an oak plug was placed under the building and fired. The bomb was not placed far enough under the building to accomplish the object sought, and no serious damage was done. A FIGHT WITH DE8PERADOE8, The occasion was the grand military festival organised by the army officers, over which Gen. Boulauger, had he still been minister of war, was to have praslded—« duty that now devolved upon his successor, Gen. Kerron. During the whole day the people were very much excited. The first disturbance came off in front of the chamber of deputies, at the Quai Dorsay, at # o'clock last evening, when several hundred students and men in blouses collected, reading aloud Gen. Boulanger's farewell address to the army, shouting "Vive Boulangorl" and singing "Marseillaise." The police dispersed the crowd with very little difficulty, the ringleaders merely saying, with significant smiles: "Oh, all right We shall meet later at the Place de l'Opera. Au re voir." In Which Two Men Are Killed and Sev- eral Wounded. Browwbvilijs, Tex., Jane 1.—At dawn the Roto Cut Off, which has been the refuge of thirty desperate bandit*, thieves and smugglen, was raided. Sheriff Breto, of this county, and Deputy Clansner, of Hidalgo, with fifty rancheroe and deputies, drove out the bandits, who met with a warm reception on the other side from a detachment of the Third cavalry, under command of Col. Nieves Hernandez. A sharp fight ensued, in which CoL Hernandez was wounded in the hand, one of his men killed and another wounded. One bandit was killed, several wounded and a number captured, several of whom, well known murderers, were killed on the spot. A large amount of stolen stock was found, most of which was returned to its owners. It is intimated that the bill providing for the improvement of the Capitol buildings, $600,- 000, may suffer with others, bat Got. Beaver is silent as to where the sxe will drop. The reason advancd as to the omission el President Smith's signature is that the message clerk inadvertently conveyed the bill to the Secretary of the Commonwealth, a tor Speaker Boyd had signed it, not presenting it to the President of the Senate. Other likely causes for the ununutl occurrence are rlao Suggested.Niw York, June 1.—The Pittsburg Cricket club defeated the Stnten Island eleven at Livingston, 8. L, by a score of 206 to 183, with four wickets to spare. "The bumper, one fireman and a watchman were in the building at the time. When the explosion occurred they ran out and were fired upon by the dynamiters. There were three and possibly four men in the party, but no one was recognized. After firing about a dozen shots at the men who were in the building they ran toward Connellsville. The dynamiters are supppeed to be strikers, and belong about Connellsville. There can be no reason assigned for the act except pure deviltry, as there was no. work being done and no attempt to work, except pumping water out of the mines." New York, June 1.—The 880 yards handicap run for members of the New YoA Athletic olub at Mott Haven was won by G. J. Bradish, with 70 yards start. Time, 2 mins. 1-5 sec. Bradish fainted as be crossed the Una Lato yesterday afternoon the bodies of the boys wero found buried in the lot occupied by Showers' houw. The bodies were found covered by only two feet of earth. They wero six feet apart and about twenty yards from tho house. They had been strangled with a small cord, and there were deep indentations in their necks where the string had been tightly twisted four or five times. They wero in their nightgowns. After they had been strangled the murderer, to make his work sure, battered in their heads, and then carried the boys out in the night and buried them in the holes that had evidently been prepared in advance. Tho body of one of the boys looked as if he had boen beaten with a (dub after he had been choked, and they had apparently been in the ground two weeks. It was well for Showers that he was safe in Lebanon Jail. Had he been outside the jail whon the bodies were found he would have been lynched on the spot. The greatest excitement prevailed. When confronted with the evidences of his crime the wretched murderer confessed all, saying that his desire to marry Mrs. Sargeant had caused him to put the little boys out of the way, and that he murdered them in their sleep. A CONDEMNED MURDERESS. Under the revenue aot of 1885, the corporations were exempt from considerable tax by a ruling of the 8upreme Court, which refused to construe "persons" to mean "corporations," but the new law cured this defect, and the larger tix would have bran collected in the next couple of yea-a. The new act turned into the county tr \auries one-half of the tax on persoosl propeity, and it was estimated that this would divide np $1,000,000 each year among the oounticx The defeat of this leads to the nimor that the clamor from all over the State for this million a year wi'l r -ult in the calling of an extra session of 'he Legislature. The Governor, however, is not so sure abjut that and said he would not call an extra srisior. Under the old law of 188S with the increased revenue, from high lioense there will be a large sum, as it it, collected every year, but how much can not be eetimated exactly. ;*oor Mrs. Clgnarale Constantly Crying for Her Child. Expecting that an attempt would be made to disturb the president's slumbers, a strong force of soldiers and police were posted at all approaches to the palace of the Elysee, with the strictest orders to challenge all suspicious parsons and prevent rioting. New York, Jnne 1.—Warden Walsh said that Mrs. Cignarale had oaten but two meals 3;lice last Friday, and that she was most miserab le. Ob Monday she ate a little toast at the earnest request of Father Anacletus, of Italy, and yesterday Sister Austen persuaded nor to eat some poached egg-, and toast. Tho unfortunate woman said that she did not refuse to oat to starve herself and so escape the gallows, but becanso she had no appetite for food of any kind. It stuck in her throat and choked her.

There were six entries, and Woodside, the American champion, was nowhere in the race. Oswego, N. Y., June 1.—A lamp explosion last night set fire to a small house near the lumber district occupied by Mrs. O'Brien and her four children. Three of the children were asleep in an upper room, and before they could be rescued two of them were burned to death. Their bodies were recovered. The third child was badly burned. The father of the family, who had onoe been president of the 'Longsnoremen's union, was drowned in a slip near his house three yean ago. Two Children Burned to Death. Late in the evening a gang of several hundred bogus workingmen slouched down the Faubourg Saint Honors yelling and cheering. They got as far as the Rue Bolny d'Anglas unmolested, but then they came in contact with the troops, who quickly sent them about their business. H. C. Frick, one of the owners of the shaft, said that he had not decided upon any action yet, but that arraagements would be made to protect their men and property.

While the latter exists upon the strength of fine speeches, eta., the former manages the real business. "Our uarrativa," says The Times, "shows that Mr. Pamell, Mr. Sexton and other leaders of the Home Rule party are on intimate terms with the Clan-na-Gael miscreants, and their permission or prohibition of diabolical outrages is a matter of prearrangement" St. Petersburg, June 1.—News has reached Merv from Herat that the Ghilaais have defeated 1,000 of the ameer's raguhutroops and captured five guns and considerable baggage.

Lebanon, Fa., June 1.—Willaim Showers, a oigarmaker, 89 years old, has been arrested on suspicion of making away with his two little grandsons, the illegitimate offspring of • daughter who is dead. It is alleged that Showers, who Is a widower, had a chance to marry provided he would send the children away from his home. He started in a wagon with them, ostensibly for Tower City, but came back, saying the boys had run away from him on the road. Later he told several conflicting stories about the disposition he had made of the little ones. The community 1b much agitated over the matter. had mado of tho little ones. First he said he had given the boys in charge of a man who would give them a good home In Texas. Then he reported that he had driven the boys to Tower City and given them into the chargo of a farmer. Later he said that while on the way to Tower City he sent the boys back for something he had lost on the road, and they had been kidnapped by tramps in the vicinity of Indian town gap, a dangerous place, where old Joe Raber was murdered for his 930,000 insurance money. Showers declared upon his solemn oath that he did not know the whereabouts of the children, and tears streamed down his cheeks as ho called upon God as his witness. Many of the officials who held conversation with Mm were inclined to believe him. Still the district attorney was not satisfied, and ordered a strict search of Showor's premises. Scottdale, Fa., June L—Coke strikers made an attempt yesterday morning to blow up a coal shaft at Davidson with dynamite while four men wer» at work.- The "dynamite was thrown down the shaft and exploded without injuring the men, although tho sides of the shaft were damaged. The workmen quickly ran from the mine and were then fired upon by four men. More than a dozen shots were fire J, but none of them took effect. The executive board of the Miners' association are now in session at Everson considering the strike. It is thought measures will be taken to secure a conference with the operators, and that the strike will bo settled in a few days. Paris, June 1.—Fifty thousand people shouting at the top of their lungs "Vive Boulangeri Vive Boulangerl" came swarming into the Place de l'Opera at 9 o'clock last night, causing tremendous excitement and oommotion.

TUrkisbchq, June 1 —It has keen discovered by Gov. Beaver that the name of George Handy Bmltb, President of the Senate, is not aflliod to the General Revenue Act, and it therefore fails under the Constitution. Many appropriations baaed on the increased reveaue will suffer In consequence. Governor Beaver spent a whole day in consideration of the measure and took up his pen to sign it, when he discovered the absence of President Smith'* name. The Opera house was magnificently illuminated and covered with flags and trophies bearing the inscriptions, "Patrie" and "Devoir." From the Military olub at the corner of the Rue de la Paix an l the Avenue de l'Opera, directly opposite the Grand Opera house, three batteries of electric lights shone full upon the facade of the latter and Its gilded lyres, crowns and statues, setting forth the magnificent buildings in dazzling splendor. After making a desperate effort to secure the support of the material men at the beginning of the lockout the master masons have suddenly come to the conclusion that they hive no longer any need of their support. When asked if the material men were still standing by the Masons' association President Downey replied: "What do we care whether they stand by us or notl Let them soli as much and as often as they can. Whom arc they going to sell to! We control ninetcuths of the work in the city and we won't buy of them. Let the brick yards start up. The master masons will make no attempts to stop them. Four years ago we had a like trouble, and material was offered to all who wished to buy and none was sold. We but the bricklayers, and will beat them now." Philadelphia, June 1.—The Master Masons' association have decided to lock out their union stonecutters to-day and keep them out until they agree to cease interfering with the non-union employes. Over 800 men will be affected by the lockout. Just how the omission occurred It !• difficult to conjecture, but it might have happened in several ways. The discoyery will necessitate the paring d6wn of a large number of appropriations wfcieh were baaed on the c.timatfd increase of revenue under the new law. It was calculated that $1,000,000 would be brought into the coffers of the State through the operations of this act, and many an item in the general appropriation bill will fall under the veto axe of Gov. Beaver. Nrw York, June L—The track, weather and attendance at Brighton Beaoh, fair. First raoe, five-eighths of a mile; Manselle first, Falsenote second, Maid of the Mist third; time; 1 K)5%.

The following report of the affair was received from the superintendent of the works by the coke syndicate: "About 8:80 o'clock yesterday morning an attempt was made to blow up the shaft building of the Pittsburg and Cleveland Gas, Coal and Coke company at Davidson station, on the Southwest Pennsylvania railroad, about three-quarters of a mile north of Connel&ville. A bomb made of gas pipe fllledjwith dynamite and plufved up with an oak plug was placed under the building and fired. The bomb was not placed far enough under the building to accomplish the object sought, and no serious damage was done. A FIGHT WITH DE8PERADOE8, The occasion was the grand military festival organised by the army officers, over which Gen. Boulauger, had he still been minister of war, was to have praslded—« duty that now devolved upon his successor, Gen. Kerron. During the whole day the people were very much excited. The first disturbance came off in front of the chamber of deputies, at the Quai Dorsay, at # o'clock last evening, when several hundred students and men in blouses collected, reading aloud Gen. Boulanger's farewell address to the army, shouting "Vive Boulangorl" and singing "Marseillaise." The police dispersed the crowd with very little difficulty, the ringleaders merely saying, with significant smiles: "Oh, all right We shall meet later at the Place de l'Opera. Au re voir." In Which Two Men Are Killed and Sev- eral Wounded. Browwbvilijs, Tex., Jane 1.—At dawn the Roto Cut Off, which has been the refuge of thirty desperate bandit*, thieves and smugglen, was raided. Sheriff Breto, of this county, and Deputy Clansner, of Hidalgo, with fifty rancheroe and deputies, drove out the bandits, who met with a warm reception on the other side from a detachment of the Third cavalry, under command of Col. Nieves Hernandez. A sharp fight ensued, in which CoL Hernandez was wounded in the hand, one of his men killed and another wounded. One bandit was killed, several wounded and a number captured, several of whom, well known murderers, were killed on the spot. A large amount of stolen stock was found, most of which was returned to its owners. It is intimated that the bill providing for the improvement of the Capitol buildings, $600,- 000, may suffer with others, bat Got. Beaver is silent as to where the sxe will drop. The reason advancd as to the omission el President Smith's signature is that the message clerk inadvertently conveyed the bill to the Secretary of the Commonwealth, a tor Speaker Boyd had signed it, not presenting it to the President of the Senate. Other likely causes for the ununutl occurrence are rlao Suggested.Niw York, June 1.—The Pittsburg Cricket club defeated the Stnten Island eleven at Livingston, 8. L, by a score of 206 to 183, with four wickets to spare. "The bumper, one fireman and a watchman were in the building at the time. When the explosion occurred they ran out and were fired upon by the dynamiters. There were three and possibly four men in the party, but no one was recognized. After firing about a dozen shots at the men who were in the building they ran toward Connellsville. The dynamiters are supppeed to be strikers, and belong about Connellsville. There can be no reason assigned for the act except pure deviltry, as there was no. work being done and no attempt to work, except pumping water out of the mines." New York, June 1.—The 880 yards handicap run for members of the New YoA Athletic olub at Mott Haven was won by G. J. Bradish, with 70 yards start. Time, 2 mins. 1-5 sec. Bradish fainted as be crossed the Una Lato yesterday afternoon the bodies of the boys wero found buried in the lot occupied by Showers' houw. The bodies were found covered by only two feet of earth. They wero six feet apart and about twenty yards from tho house. They had been strangled with a small cord, and there were deep indentations in their necks where the string had been tightly twisted four or five times. They wero in their nightgowns. After they had been strangled the murderer, to make his work sure, battered in their heads, and then carried the boys out in the night and buried them in the holes that had evidently been prepared in advance. Tho body of one of the boys looked as if he had boen beaten with a (dub after he had been choked, and they had apparently been in the ground two weeks. It was well for Showers that he was safe in Lebanon Jail. Had he been outside the jail whon the bodies were found he would have been lynched on the spot. The greatest excitement prevailed. When confronted with the evidences of his crime the wretched murderer confessed all, saying that his desire to marry Mrs. Sargeant had caused him to put the little boys out of the way, and that he murdered them in their sleep. A CONDEMNED MURDERESS. Under the revenue aot of 1885, the corporations were exempt from considerable tax by a ruling of the 8upreme Court, which refused to construe "persons" to mean "corporations," but the new law cured this defect, and the larger tix would have bran collected in the next couple of yea-a. The new act turned into the county tr \auries one-half of the tax on persoosl propeity, and it was estimated that this would divide np $1,000,000 each year among the oounticx The defeat of this leads to the nimor that the clamor from all over the State for this million a year wi'l r -ult in the calling of an extra session of 'he Legislature. The Governor, however, is not so sure abjut that and said he would not call an extra srisior.
