EDITORIAL NOTES.
SERIOUS trouble Is anticipated in the
Hocking Valley region over the intro-duction
of coal-cutting machines.
1)isi'.vrclies from Washington state that
our Congressmen are out of sorts. Many
of their constituents wish they were out
of seats, too.
Kuoui.o our Sam ltandall make a light
against Wallace, the Clearfield Senator
would hardly be given a chance to de-cline
the Gubernatorial nomination.

a rather unworthy conns belli. She says

drunkard and good for nothing generally.
A MEMBER ofCouncil said t lie reason lire
plugs were not put in along the pipe line
on Church and Main streets, was that it
would not be fair to lay a general tax for
the privilege enjoyed by but few. An ex-cellent
reason, but why not make the
privilege conform with the tax by ex-tending
the pipes?
A CENTURY ago, when the forests of
Western Pennsylvania rang with the
echoes of the pioneer’s axe and the han-dle
of the plow gave place to the trigger
of the rifle when the redskins became
too numerous, the Pittsburg Commercial
Gazette first saw the light of day. From
the days of Washington to the days of
Cleveland it has consistently upheld the
doctrines which built up the nation and
wove about its brow the never dying
emblem of freedom to all men—except-ing
the Chinese. The steady old sheet
has witnessed the rise, progress and fall
of scores of would-be rivals, yet it stands
to-day a fit representative of the pro-gressive
journalism which leads the ad-vance
of civilization. Ever ready to
battle for the right, as the journal seeB
the right, the Commercial Gazette, having
passed the portals of one century and
having crossed the threshhold of a sec-ond,
is entitled to the universal congrat-ulations
which its younger brethren,
both of town and country, have united
in heartily extending. Among others
more worthy allow a youngster of four-teen
years to hand up its card.
DREADED TYPHOID.
CHAUTAUQUA 1MVEKSITY
Or. Sntvely Make* a Post Mortem Exam-tnntion
of a Wont Bliznbetli Victim.
Thursday Dr. Sniyely, of the State
’Hoard of Health, went to West Eliza-beth
and held an autopsy on the body
of Robert Graham. He was assisted by
Drs. Pierce and McGrew, of Elizabeth.
The examination proved conclusively
that the man’s death resulted from ty-phoid
fever of a malignant type. Wil-liam
McCarkey, another of Wednesday’s
victims, was found to have died from the
same disease, although no post mortem
was held. Dr. Naively also made an ex-amination
of the water from several of
the wells in the town, and as a result
ordered two of them to be closed lip.
He found considerable organic matter
in the water, but did not carry the anal-ysis
far enough to determine whether or
not they contained fever germs.
No far seven deaths have occurred
from this treacherous disease.
An Old Book.
Mr. David T,ash, of West Newton, had
a very old commentary on the liible
which ho said would be given to any one
who could road it. The book was prin-ted
iu London in 1(170 by Jacob (’testier,
with two columns to the page, one in
Latin,the other in Greek. In old Eng-lish
typo, tho task of reading was by no
moans an easy one oven for the lino
scholars of to-day. President DoDong,
of Lebanon Valley Colloge, who was
hore last week, however, carried off
the prize by reading to tho astonished
owner numerous extracts from the an-cient
volume. Tho hook which is won-derously

EDITOR JOURNAL:—It is the purpose of
(his letter to fulfill my promise to say
more about Chautauqua University.
There is of course no other such a uni-versity
in this country, nor in any other
—a sort of university in camp. It is
well known that perhaps a dozen col-leges
in our country, and some in Can-ada
and in England, grant A. M., (Mas-ter
of Arts) and Pli. D. (Doctor of Phil-osophy)
ike., to college graduates after
they have pursued a two or three years’
course of study (post graduates;) while
others make those degrees practically
honorary. The colleges which prescribe
A. M. and l’h. D. courses of study ditl'er
on one point, viz : Nome require one or
two years’ residence and attendance up-on
recitations and lectures, while others
grant these degrees to non-residents, re
quiring written examinations by corre-spondence.
THE AIM OK CHAUTAUQUA UNIVERSITY
seems to be au imitation on a very large
scale of those colleges which grant di-plomas
to non-residents. Chautauqua
I'niversity proposes to open its doors,
not to college graduates especially, but
to everybody ; not to pursue post gradu-ate
branches, but all ordinary branches;
not simply the usual academic branches,
but any branch demanded, even to cook
ery. Ileing unlike all other institutions
it has no traditions to follow, and hence
teaches eight or ten languages, and no
mathematics. The sciences are mixed;
hut every year or two adds a new depart-ment,
and whereunto it will grow no
one can guess. I feel pretty sure that it
will never outgrow I)r. Vincent's imag-ination.
THE C. 1.. S. f.
now numbers 300,000, and will soon
reach half a million. Hut this is only
one department of this university. The
Teachers’ Reading Fnion isan imitation
of the (’. I.. N. ('., but the subjects have
reference to teaching. There is hope
that it will rival the C. I,. N. C. as a
Chautauqua Normal. This is the young-est
child of Chautauqua. Of the oilier
lepartments we may mention music, art,
day modeling, cooking, calisthenics, elo-cution,
book-keeping, stenography, type-writing,
and so on endlessly,
Nome one will want to know how much
of this mixture will procure a degree,
say A. I!., or I’ll. D.V Well, this will be
determined in time, but so lar the num-ber
desiring degrees is largely in excess
if those w ho are earning t hem. Hut we
must caution young people against the
supposition that a course in this institu-tion
is, in any important sense, a sub-stitute
for a training in a sdiool with
daily class recitations.
Chautauqua is not a substitute for a
college, or an academy, but it is an at-tempt
to get persons to pursue as fully
as they may be able iu their own homes
and at Chautauqua any one of a dozen
or more prescribed courses of study, and
upon its completion and a moderate ex-amination
to receive a diploma. Then,
to increase the inducement to subse-quent
study, seals arc granted of various
colors, blue, white, gold, &v., each being
a grade higher than tlie one next below
it in rank. A Doctor Eaton, of Frank-lin,
is said to have earned so many that
there is no more room on his diploma
for seals. These are, we presume, partly
for success in courses in the C. L. N. C.
In short, the attempt is to get persons
who cannot or will not go to an institu-tion
of high grade to pursue
moil (TRADE STUDIES AT HOME.
To this end text books are prepared
such as this class of students can use.
In Ibis way it is hoped to secure for tens
of thousands a lair education, a relish
for study, and the beginning of a good
library. As an example witness the
studies of tho C. L. N. C.
Nome will doubt the wisdom of such
a university, but tho demand for it is
proved by the more than a quarter of a
million C. I.. S. C.’s now enrolled, it is
proper toask whether the C. 1.. S. C. is
not, after all, the chief feature of this
now famous university. Personally we
believe it is, but Dr. Vincent would
hardly agree to this. Hut, even though
it be admitted that the C. L, N. C. is its
leading department, Dr. Vincent would
claim that this is only for the time being,
since the other departments are equally
in demand and will soon rival it. So
far as actual teaching is done on the
ground, the most thorough work is done
in the School of Languages. Here the
best of talent is sought for teachers, and
the most modern methods are adopted.
The Latin class begins witli Cicafr, tiie
German teacher uses German only, and
expects his classes to do likewise.’ One
result is enthvsiasm, which is a most
valuable contribution to success in any-thing.
German and French sociables
are held, and the chatting dope in Ger-man
and french.
THREE ( (.ASSES oy I'EOPU:
are noticeable at ('hautauqua—the C. L.
S. C.’s, school teachers and boarding-house
keepers. The first class are re-puted
for their Socratic wisdom; the
second are usually unmarried women,
about whose ages it is safest not to in-quire,
and the last class, the b. b. k.’s,
are usually women who impress you
with tiie conviction that they are very
anxious to get their harvest in. We
cheerfully own to a good deal of admi-ration
for each class. We met a woman
who hud come alone from Dakota to
graduate in the C. L. S. C. We over-heard
another woman asking tiie Greek
Professor important questions about
Homer. She was intensely interested
in this great Greek, was reading the best
translations she could get—she is about
sixty years old. Then tliose lady teach-ers
in tiie school of languages, pedagog-ics,
calisthenics, and so on—they are
about as substantial a body of women as
could be found on the continent. They
evidently mean business; they qeYVI
wrdk with a loitering gait; if they walk,
it is because they aye gojpg somewhere
and mean to get there pretty soon ; they
need no escorts ; and how they do study !
One of them tohl a professor that stie
was afraid to go to sleep at night for fear
she would miss something—a lecture,
concert or lesson—she was anxious to get.
They dress tor comfort and for work.
The various professors in Hie school of
languages lecture on subjects and persons
pertaining to their respective languages,
usually at 4 p. in. At 5 p. nV. there are
tourists’ conferences andG. L. S. C. meet-ings
in smaller places of meeting. In
tiie Amphitheatre, where three thousand
may gather, are held about four services
a day. lectures, concerts, conferences and
so on. Talmage discoursed “Evolution”

MANGLED BY THE CARS.
Sail Fate of Prc.hlriil Hart, of (lie Ifflnrr.'
Association, at Cniuiollsville
John Hart,of Wheeler,president of the
Miners’ and Laborers’ Amalgamated As
sociation, mot death in a terrible man
ner Wednesday night, in the upper yard
of tiie Baltimore ami Ohio road at Con-nellsville.
He had started to walk from
Connellsviile to his home and sat down
on tiie track near some gondola cars
loaded with iron ore to rest and await
some friends who were behind him. An
engine backed against the cars, causing
them to run over him. His right leg
was broken in several places and liis left
leg was nearly cut oil'. When found
neur midnight lie was still living. Tin
string of cars was so long that tiie shift
ing engine was not able to move Hie car
from its position. Men were sent to tiie
shops for jacks and by this means the
car was finally hoisted ami tiie mangled
man removed. All this time Hart suf-fered
untold misery and begged of those
present not to nllcrw his wife to see him
until lie was dead. The unfortunate
man was taken to tiie D office and med
leal aid summoned. Dr. T. 11. White
who attended him, saw at a glance that
to save his life was impossible, and tiie
priest was SBnt for. The injured man
asked to have ids limbs amputated, but
tiie doctor assured him that it would
only be death to administer chloroform
for the purpose at that time. A small
amount of chloroform was used to dead
en tiie tdrrible pain, but nothing else
could be done for him. lie lingered
until after six o'clock Thursday morn
ing, remaining conscious until within a
few minutes before deatli ended liis suf-ferings.
liis friends were notified and
liis remains were taken to l’orter’s un-dertaking
rooms, where tiie body was
dressed and placed in an elegant casket.
Air. Hart was about 33 years old and
leaves a wife and four children. He
was born in England of Irish parents,
and came to this country and settled in
tiie coke regions about live years ago
lie lias always been a strong trades un-ionist
and before the strike last winter
wasseveral times discharged by liis em-ployers
for liis advocacy of labor orga-nizations.
The great strike brought him
into prominence and at tiie frequent
conferences with tiie operators tvhic
have been held since lie won their re-spect
by his coolness and moderation.
His father is the Secretary of tiie Coke
Drawers’ Association, of England. Sec-retary
Aiullen will likely now be elected
president of the Association while Jer-ry
Trnmtny, of Jimtown, is favorably
spoken of as Mullen’s successor.
The funeral took place from tiie late
residence of tiie deceased at Wheeler on
Saturday. Tiie procession which left
tiie house at IU,30 a. m., numbered
almost 5,000 people nearly alt on foot.
Tiie pall-bearers were selected two each
from tiie Ancient Order of liebernians,
Knights of Labor and tiie Amalgamated
Association. Tiie remains were taken
to the Catholic church in Connellsviile
where the impressive services for tiie
dead were held. At tiie close, tiie pro-cession
formed again and marched to tiie
ceineterd where the maimed body of tiie
unfortunate man was laid to rest shortly
after three o,clock.
The coroner’s inquest, which was held
at Connellsviile Saturday morning, re-sulted
in tiie finding of a verdict of acci-dental
death. There is a mysterious
cloud hanging over affair the which will
he thoroughly investigated by acommit-tee
of miners.

morning to procure the necessary license

A Oi.OIUOUS OLD TIME.
In tiie evening the happy Him and
liis pretty bride returned to Morewood
whereat No. 58lives witli his family a
brother-in-law of the new Mrs. Gaeil-aek,
William King, and where a sump-tions
repast had been prepared. After
the viands had been discussed an in-formal
but well attended reception was
given Mr. and Mrs. Gaeileak. At tiie
close of tiie reception the wet goods
which consisted of numerous quarters
and eights were brought forth from tiie
ice and placed on tap and many were
(lie toasts drank to the young bride’s
health, One, AVilliam Meredith, is said
to iiavo wished her well over tiie foam-ing
bowl more than a score of times.
Dancing began at a fashionable hour
an agreement having been made before-hand
that, as the festi/ities were of an
international order, the American guests
should lie given the first dance and the
Hungarians the second, and so alternate
during tiie evening. This arrangement
proved a very satisfactory one in more
ways than one us it gave hotli parties
an equal chance at the dance and tiie
liquid refreshments which were kept in
an apartment inmediately hack of the
bail room. Tiie square dance seemed to
be the favorite with tiie American por-tion
of the revelers while the Hun-garians
stuck to tiie waltz as a rule.
There was one movement executed by
the males alone of the latter which
must lie seen and heard to lie appreciated
and can be compared to nothing short of
an Indian war dance. At its close a
collection was taken up among tiie par-ticipants
which amounted to some twen-ty
odd dollars and this was given to the
bride. The merry making continued
duringthe entire night anil tiie following
day with but short intervals for rest and
laying in of a fresh siqiply of beer, and,
indeed, it might be said that Sunday
closed the festal occasion connected with
tiie first wedding, it is believed, of tho
kind in this country.
Marrying foreigners may become tiie
rage in this section for already it is re-ported
that two more American girls at
Alice intend following Mrs. Gaeilaek’s
example.

It is belioved by many that there is
excellent oil territory iu Greene county
and that spine good wells will be secured
in thatsoction before many months. Tiie
Gulleys’ are of this opinion.
The natural gas product of the Mur-raysville
Held is roughly estimated at
300,000,(100 cubic feet ofgas per day,which
is probably within the truth. The con-sumption
at Pittsburg alone is placed at
two-thirds that amount; but much of
this must be charged to wastage.
Collector John Dowlin has in contem-plation
tho sinking ofan oil well on liis
farm on Muddy Creek, iu Greene coun-ty.
Tho farm lies in the very center
or'what is supposed to be the Greene
jounty belt, and Mr. Dowlin thinks if
there ia any oil in tho county ho has it.
The well will go down early iu the fall*
The Greonsburg Fuel Company is en-gaged
in negotiations with It. H. Smith,
oi Pittsburg, for the use of his patent

Ifan agreement should be reach-ed
tho company propose to supply illu-minating
natural gas for lighting not
only the streets of Greensburg but also
private houses. It is Mr. Smith’s patent
that is used in making gas hore.

treatment and support. She was suffer-ing
from cancer ofthe stomach and while

GAS IN BLAST FURNACES.
How H Pinnhiirgor Propi.Hi H to Sim lt Iron
With IJCNN Coke.
John Francis Bennett, of Pittsburg,
l.as patented a process for the purpose
of usinn iintimil gru in blast
fiirmteus. liis chief difficulty is to elim-inate
the moisture from tiie gas, blit lie
lias found a means to overcome it. He
conveys tiie gas from tiie well into a re-ceiver
where the expansion causes all
water over six per cent, to ho deposited.
Tiie gas is then carried in pipes to a gas
holder in the neighborhood of tho fur-nace
capable of holding 30 minutes’ sup-ply.
On entering this holder the pres-sure
of gas is reduced to three pounds.
In this holder foraminous or perforated
floors, preferably of copper sheets, are
placed six to eight feet apart and are
heated by steam from tiie boilers. This
floor may also lip composed of coils of
steam pipes. Jts use is to arrest tho gas
in tiie course of its ascension into tho
holder and to prevent the freezing of the
moisture, which iR rim off through a one-inch
pipe. The flow of tiie gas into the
holder is governed by a regulator.
On passing from tiie holder, tiie gas,
which is now free from moisture, is
passed through an iron pipe stove, heat-ed
by tiie waste gasses from the furnaco.
Thence it passes into the furnace through
four tuyeres, each planted equi-distant
from one of four other tuyeres, which
convey the atmospheric air blast.
Air. Bennett now claims that by this
process one ton of pig iron, which now
requires 2,500 pounds of solid carbon to
produce, can he produced witli 053
pounds of solid carbon. He estimates
that liis process saves 7.3 per cent, of the
solid carbon fuel.

Florida Captain.
Special (’orrcMpomlence to the Journal.
KEY WKST, Fla., July 20, 1880.
A very pleasant occasion took place,
July 15, at N o’clock p. m., at the resi-dence
of Airs. Virginia Low, where Mr.
Jesse Fox and family and ('apt. Hiseock,
from Indian River, are now tenting
rooms. It was the consummation ofa
two years’ engagement in the happy
marrage of Captain frwin D. Hiseock to
Miss Jessie L. Fox. The ceremony was
performed by R. II. liarnett, pastor of
the First Al. E. Church South. They had
no idea of coining to Key West to mar-ry
or ever to spend any length of time.
Capt. Hiseock came to sell a schooner,
and Air. Fox and family on a pleasure
trip, but after getting here they found
it pleasant, and pleanty to do, so they
took rooms for some months. That they
made friends very quickly and are de-servedly
popular was evidenced by tiie
large number that attended their wed-ding,
and tho handsome and valuable
presents they received. Tiie bride was
beautifully yet simplyaml sensibly attired
in a cream colored dress, and looked so
modest, retiring and womanly that it
was not surprising to tiie Captain’s
friends that lie was tiie happiest man in
the party that evening. Tiie wedding
slipper was beautiful, bountiful and de-licious.
Alay long life, health and happiness
crown their union with every earthly
and spiritual good. R. II. BARNETT.
SCOTT'S “IRONCLAD.”
The Contract. Against Which the Scott
IlHvun Miner* Struck.
Tiie “iron-clad” contract against which
tiie miners of W. L. Scott or tiie Yough-iogheny
River Coal Company are on a
strike, provides that the company will
pay tiie miners the same rate per ton as
is paid by the coal companies of the
Youghiogheny river. It also provides
that in case of a suspension of work at
other mines on tiie Youghiogheny river,
Scott’s miners shall continue at work at
the rnte which was being paid at tiie
other mines before this suspension. If
after such a suspension the miners at the
other mines resume work at a higher
rate than they were receiving before,
Scott’s miners are to be paid this advan-ced
rate far all coal mined during and
after this suspension. This contract
holds good until the expiration of thirty
days’ notice is given by either party.
The most obnoxious partsot theeontract
to the miners are the last clause in th e
regulations attacked. The] clause pro-vides
that tiie miner “furtheragrees that
he will not stop work, join any ‘strike
or combination for the purpose of ob-taining
or causing the company to pay
their miners an advanceof wages, or pay
beyond what is specified in thiscontract,
nor will he in any way aid, abet or
countenance any such ‘strike,’ combina-tion
or scheme for any purpose whatever
duringthe time specified in the first
clause of said contract. And if the sec-ond
party shall violate any of the pro-visions
of this contract in this regard, at
any time, lie shall thereby forfeit all
claims for coal previously mined and not
paid for, and the first party be released
from liability therefor.”

Friday's Sturm.
The strong wind which accompanied
Friday evening's heavy rain did consid-erable
damage to oats and corn fields iu j
this vicinity. Several trees were blown
down in different parts of town. During
tho night a P. It. freight train ran into a
tree which had blown over tha track on
the Texas branch near its junction with
the Juno Bug. The road was blockaded
until Saturday afternoon.

TU ESDAY, AUGUST I).
THE breaking up of the famous Blcn-lielm
gallery of paintings began on Sat-urday
in London, but tile prices obtained
were not extraordinary. Eighteen Ru-benses
were in the first day’s sale, blit
only two of them brought prices equal
to those sometimes paid for model works
—“Venus ami Cupid Restraining Adonis
from tile Chase” a famous example of
this master, which fetched $30,000, and
the fine portrait of Anne of Austria,
bought by the same dealer who purchas-ed
tlie previous picture, which brought
$18,300. The same painter’s “Holy
Family” sold for $3,000, while a “Bac-chanalian
Revel” fetched less than $300.
American buyers apparently were not
among the bidders or competition would
have been livelier.
RAILROAD men are making ready to do
a very important as well as a very sensi-ble
tiling, namely, to prepare a series of
railroad signals which will lie understood
on any road in the country. The mag-nitude
of this reform can be appreciated
when it is known that an employee of
the Pennsylvania Railroad wlto should
get a job on a Baltimore and Ohio train
would have to learn a new set of signals,
ami that on some roads to swing a lan-tern
backward and forward means“go
ahead,” while on others it means“back.”
A trainman who goes from the service
of one road to that of another needs an
unusually cool head to give the right
signal in every ease without confusing
the new and the old, and the adoption of
a perfectly uniform system would doubt-less
promote the general safety of the
traveling public, however well it is al-ready
cared for by the more progressive
corporations.
its iuliueiiue, but rather to the “terrors
of the law” which it lias invoked, it is
willing to assume whatever of credit or
discredit attaches to its course.
Tlie Anarchists have solemnly resolv-ed
Unit the press, in clamoring for the
condemnation and execution of tlie ac-cused
dynamiters, lias acted contrary to
tlie spirit of tlie law and the dictates of
justice in prejudging their disc and de-claring
them guilty before tliey have
been heard in their defense. It is sug-gested
that tlie press should remain dis-creetly
silent on tills question ol guilt or
innocence until the fact lias been judi-cially
determined.
Willie it must be confessed that tlie
press lias gone far towards condemning
the accused in advance of a trial, yet it
would have been derelict in duly lmd il
remained silent through fear ofdoing in-justice
to the Anarchists, either as in-dividuals
or as a class. if it he true, as
set forth in the action of the meeting,
tlmt “the press Is tlie chief Instrument
for tlie formation and expression of pub-lic
sentiment,” what would the Amer-ican
people have inferred from its silence
after tlie fearful revelations which fol-lowed
the bloody massacre at the Ilay-mardet?
There are some crimes so heinous in
their nature, sodibollcal in their concep-tion
and so horrible in tlicir perpetra-tion
that they carry with them all tlie
marks of guilt and all tlie qualities
which merit punishment. It is to the
lasting credit of the press that it lias,
“with almost entire unanimity,” never
ceased to condemn the dynamiters as
murderers and to demand their convic-tion
and punishment. Their crime was not
murder alone, to be weighed as ordinary
homicides under the rules and technical-ities
of law,hut a startling blow aimed at
tlie very vitals of civil government. The
maimed and dying policemen represen
ted the animus of the Anarchists towards
organized law and order in tlie United
States. They took tlie Nation by the
throat when they made war upon its
constituted authorities, and now tlmt
they are in the keeping of tlmt law whose
majesty they have ottended and defied
tlie press but echoes tlie. public sentiment
when it demands the crimes of sucli ap
palling magnitude shall not go unpun-ished.—

THEGRANGERS' ANNUAL PICNIC-The
Grangers’ Picnic, or Inter-State
Exhibition, hold at Williams’ Grove,
Merhauiesburg, Cumberland county, in
Uiis State, lias become one of the great
institutions of Pennsylvania. The thir-teenth
annual meeting will open ott Mon-day,
August 30th, and closcon Saturday,
Septomocr Ith, and it should at once
command the attention of manufacturers
and dealers ltero and elsewhere, who
have articles adapted to the great indu-trial
interests represented there.
When it is considered that over three
hundred car-loads of implements and
machinery were exhibited at the annual
picnic ol 1885; that the attendance num-bered
130,000 and that orders for Imple-ments
and machinery were recived by
exhibitors amounting to $350,000 on the
grounds, tlie importance of tlie occasion
to manufacturers can be justly estimated.
There is no charge for.the admission of
visitors, and tlie frugal expenses are paid
by a small fee from eacli exhibitor and
the sale of restaurant privileges. Teams
will be ready at Mcchnnlcsburg to COM
vey machinery and implements to the
grounds at reasonable rates, and a twen-ty
acre field in good condition for culti-vation,
has been engaged tor tlie trial of
plows, harrows, rollers, drills, etc.
One of tlie enjoyable features of the
Grangers’ Picnic is the utmost freedom
given to public discussion. The rule
prohibits political speeches, but tlie dai-ly
addresses take such a wide latitude
that tlie political lino is often crossed
without serious oil'ensc. Tlie Grangers
believe in every man having his say, and
if any one gets wrong, lie, must take tlie
racket as it comes from some corrective
oratory. Tlie speeches are several in
number eacli day and every phase of in-dustrial
interest and public administra-tion
is presented. Upon tlie whole the
Grangers’ Picnic of Williams’ Grove U
one of tlie most entertaining as well as
instrvetive institutions of the State, and
all who would see the world as it is and
note its wonderful progress, should spend
si day or two with tlie Grangers at tiiclr
annual gathering.
THE DISEASE OF DISHONESTY.
The esteemed cashier of tlie Baptist
Publication Society is from thirty to
sixty thousand dollars short in liis ac-counts.
Having had the misfortune to
break his legjust at tlie time lie should
have skipped, lie is now under arrest. A
highly esteemed mercantile lawyer of
New York is short for about tlie same
amount, but he retained Hie use of Ids
legs and is safe to Montreal. An esteem-ed
official of tlie Chicago Post Office,
though under no physical disability, was
ganglit before lie got away, his shortage
being variously estimated up to two
hundred thousand dollars. These arc
tlie principal embezzlements recorded
yesterday, and it was considered rather
a dull day. With the exception of the
New York lawyer, who is said to have
lived rather fast, these embezzlers had
given no indication of any departure
from rectitude in their conduct and
mode of life. The ('liicago man was so
highly esteemed Hunt be was not num-bered
among the rascals whom the new
Democratic Postmaster thought ft well
to turn out, and tlie trustees of the Bap-tise
Socrcty had no reason to withhold
their entire confidence from their ex-perienced
cashier. And yet these men
are to have been robbed the funds
entrusted to tfyt.ni for a very long time
hack.
.Sutdi frequent crimes U .dishonesty—
lor yesterday’s list is but a r<qi*>t4tR'?u of
a daily story—indicate a social disease.|
There iiave been dishonest men and em-liezzlers
since tlie world began, but we
have not hitherto expected to find them
among our near neighbors and associates
in business or society. And yet this
deadly competition tag wealth, or the ap-pearance
of wealth, for •wertdiy position,
reference to the fisheries dispute; and
while he lias suffered no compromise of
our national honor and prestige, lie lias
candidly avoided any exhibition of ill-temper
and unfriendliness that, besides
being undignified, would have been fool-ish,
if not stupid.
No one, however, who lias intelligent-ly
observed Secretary {Bayard’s course
lias imagined for one moment tlmt lie
lacks any proper national sentiment. We
are able to believe that such persons as
Senator Frye and Congressman Bontelle
nre quite capable of believing half they
say about Secretary Bayard,hut are very
sure that, tlie average Republican of me-dium
ability lias, iu denouncing the ad-ministration’s
foreign policy, been inllii-enced
by Ids hopes rather than Ids con-victions.
Tlie truth is that our dignity
and honor were never in safer hands
than now, and this is a truth which is
steadily being borne in upon tlie people.
A ease in point is furnished by the po-sition
taken in tlie ease of Cutting, the
American editor imprisoned at El Paso
by (lie Mexican authorities. Investiga-tion
lias shown that the arrest and incar-ceration
are unwarrantable outrages,anil
now the administration comes forward
with a prompt and conclusive assertion
of itself that will lie Ion ml lo answer all
the requirements of the situation. .In-deed,
the deliberation, tlie gravity, the
wholesome and imperturbable temper
with which Mr. Bayard interprets the
idea and purpose of the United States,
will infuse into that assertion a certain
invigorating emphasis difficult to de-scribe
in words, hut singularly fruitful
in results.
The truth is that this country Is alto-gether
too big and strong, and its securi-ty
and dignity are on much too safe a
footing to need a constant and jealous
self-assertion. Mr. Bayard very faith-fully
represents the courtesy and good
and good humor and kindly feeling that
are the inevitable concomitants ofpower.

A NATIONAL MARRIAGE LAW-The
House Judiciary Committee lias
taken up tlie subject of marriage and di-vorce,
but lias got holdjOf it, so] to speak,
at tlie wrong end, A constitutional
amendment lias been reported by that
committee prohibiting polygamy in tlie
I'hited -States and authorizing Congress
to give effect to tlie prohibition by ap-propriate
legislation. 'Fills is well. As
tlie National Government lias taken up
the work of stamping out polygamy, it
might as well deal with it in Nevada and
Colorado as in Utah, hut the proposed
amendment lias tills provision: “Noth-in
tills Constitution or this clause shall
he construed to deny to any state the ex-clusive
power, subject to the provisions
of this article, to make and enforce all
laws concerning marriage and divorce
within ita jurisdiction.”
Instead of prohibiting the National
Government from legislating on tlie sub-ject
of marriage and divorce it should be
given exclusive .jurisdiction of the sub-ject.
it is a defect in tlie original Con-stitution
that these two subjects of leg-islation
were not taken from the states
and given to Congress. There Is quite
as much need of unity and harmony on
these two important subjects as there is

Ur. Howard Crosby’s position on the
wine question elicits tlie tallowing re-marks
from tlie Christian. Statesman,
which after acknowledging ids great
services against the corruptions of the
saloons, says, “From tiiese positions
(total abstinence and prohibition) I)r.
Crosby utterly dissents. Iu his judg-ment
alcohol iu moderate quantities is
beneficial. The attempt to prohibit tlie
traffic altogether is therefore wrong.
And Ids own practice accords with his
opinions. In an interview with a re-porter
of tlie Chicago Inter-Ocean, as re-ported
in that paper, lie declared “that
wine and beer in moderate quantities aro
wholesome;” and in answer to the
question," I lo you drink wine and beer?”
he replied “Yes sir 1 do, and have done
soall my life.”
This frank declaration of Ur. Crosby
should he widely published. The whole
country should know where he stands
and what is his practice. Meanwhile
let tlie discussion of tlie scientific or
physiological question go vigorously on.
Are wine and beer wholesome? What
question is fundamental. Science can
answer it. If she sustains Ur. Crosby,
we shall all come over to his ground; we
we shall Iiave to, there is no alternative.
If she condpiqqg his position, he will he

THE PRESS AND THE ANARCHISTS
The Chicago Anarchists, in expres-sing
sympathy for thosa of their number
now in the custody of the law, are un-sparing
in their denunciation of tlie
newspaper press for tlie course it has
pursued in dealing with'the offenders
and their aiders and abettors. As tills
meeting was the first of a public charac-ter
which had been held under the “red
flag” since tlie night of May 4, it is grati-fying
to observe that tlie tone of tlie
speakers has been very materially modi-fied.
There was no clamoring for tlie
blood of policemen, no incendiary tirades
against capitalists, and no riotous sugges-tions
as a means for remedying the
wrongs of labor. That is so much
gained, and while tlie press is not so stu-pid
as to attribute this charge solely to
6>tlR FOREIGN POLICY.
Of course, sf tip1 State Department
were to act prcelpiteuteV on eyery com-plaint
made by American -o^ens who
choose to imagine that they have
outraged by foreign powers, the country
would lie in perpetual hot water. We
would present the absurd spectacle of tin
Ill-tempered, fussy, quarrelsome scold,
and, in parting with our dignity, should
lose tlie world’s respect. Happily for ii.
tlie State Department is presided oyer liy
a wise and well-poised statesman, whose
equilibrium is not to he disturbed by
mere clamor, and whose acts cannot bo
influenced by silly mischievous importu-nity.

()u ilie nioniinjiof April 28 Inst an enst-liouml
freight train nn tlm Missouri I’n-cillc
road was ?|imlln£ along In I lie
ilnrkiH'Ss. Il was running wild, in rail-way
parlance, and was, In fact, on tlie
lime of a didavocl pns-«ngiT train. At a
slight enrvo in the road, about halt a mile
south of Wyandotte, on the Kansas side
of ihe Stale line, the track suddenly
spread and the engine and several of the
Ireiglit ears were precipitated into the
Haw river. The sound of the escaping
steam was drowned by the cries of Fire-man
Morton and lirakeman Carlisle, who
w ere caught under the wreck and w ere
being scalded to death. They were dead
before help could reach them and tlie'r
bodies were not removed until late in
the day. It required only a cursory ex-amination
to show that the wreck had
been deliberately and maliciously plan
lied. The spikes had all been drawn
from two rails on the river side of the
track and the fishplates and bolts had
been removed for a distance covered bv
llfty-one cross-ties. The murder of two
men lay at the door of the perpetrators
of the foul deed, and what, made the act
the more dastardly was the fact that.lt
was the delayed passenger train, with
its hundreds of helpless and sleeping
passengers, for w hom the plot had evi-dently
been laid.
W HO WKItK SISI'KCTKI).
At this time the great Southwestern
railway strike was in full blast amt sus-picion
very naturally fell upon the stri-kers.
It was easier to suspect than to
prove anything, however. The Knights
of Labor indignantly denied that the
wreck was the work of strikers ami hint-ed
that it had been planned by the rail-way
company to inllume public senti-ment
against the order. The Sherllf of
the comity way himself a Knight, as w as
also Mayor liannen, ol Kansas City, and
il was impossible to convict anybody
under the circumstances without the
clearest and most convincing proof. The
company ottered a reward of $2,500 for
the arrest and conviction of the perpetra-tors,
without so much as getting a re-sponse
from anybody who thought they
knew the guilty parties. The only clew
the detectives got for some time was tlie
fniding^it a wig near the wreck, which
was traced to a Kansas Gity hair dealer,
who had sold it to a prominent Knight
Ihe day before tlio train was wrecked,
and who said lie wanted it because lie
WHS going lo slug scabs. The local po-lice
w orked on the case in hope of secur-ing
the reward, hut finally gave it up as
hopeless, and all thought of the matter
died out of tile public mind.
KUHI.OXII COMKK TO THE FRONT.
Detective Thomas Furlong, of the
Gould system, after a careful study of
tin* ease w hen everybody else had given
it up, concluded that it was the work of
a lot of local Knights and that lie could
get positive proof of the fact, lie learn-ed
that live or six men had crossed t lie
Kaw river pn the night of the W'veck.piq
anil they wove traced to the piaeo where
(he wveek WtUTlfil, liere the cine
toiled, as iteoiilil not he proved that they
tore up tlie track, in Hie meantime one
of the suspected men had been arrested
for switch-throwing at ltumapo, Kansas.
l(is name was Oliver J. Lloyd, and he
w as noted as an advocate of violence
tewnyd the railway company. The once
against, him for switch-throwing was so
good tied lip and Ids friends were aware
(hat lie was in serious danger of convic-
\ lction if brought to trial, ills counsel
fought for delay, and Furlong conceived
the idea of aiding him to secure the post-ponement
of hh ease and otherw ise l>e-fvif.
ndiug him ill order to throw him oft'
ilia h'liavd ami get him to talking.
HOW HE WORKED Ills CLAN.
The detective lmd come into possession
of the grips, passwords and other secret
signs of the Knights. After deciding on
this line of action lie proceeded to St.
Louis and spent a week in Initiating a
half dozen of his subordinates into the
mysteries of Knighthood. This was done
so successfully that the detective Knights
found no diliienlty in passing themselves
pff on the St, Louis fraternity ns full -
jh'dged Knights, ^laving prepared Ills
tt'sspeiates for their part pi the play, Fur-long
nf>w took the aggressive. On July
I! he sept, two (if liis initiated subordinates
to lupisss (jiy, They were instructed
Hi hunt up tim loading Knights, and,
itftpr giving »U the grips, signs and pass-
'iVafilSi tft represent that they were there
nil a secret mission from Powdorly, who
wanted the Knights relieved from any
blame lor the recent outrages. They
were introduced to the Sheriffand Mayor.
The Sheriff said lie was very glad to see
the new Knights, hut lie was afraid
Brother-Lloyd was in a tight place.
Brothers Alfred and Martel—for these
were ihe names assumed by Furlong’s
Knights—were afraid so too, and it was
by working on this fear in the heart of
Lloyd thatrthey expected to get the tes-timony
they were looking fT>r. Alfred
was admitted to the jail and had an in-terview
with Lloyd. After initiating
jjoyd in Hie work pf the order estahlish-ptj
sjnee lip wag ippafcppitptl lip tpld Hie
pittpr Hint tjlf V-'iijway emnpany had a
ppad casp against jiirp for gwipilirthrow-jng
tpid intended prosecuting him for the
lliurdcr of tho two inon killed by the
wrecking of the train. Lloyd was very
naturally alarmed, and asked Alfred
wjiat he should do. This was what Al-fred
wanted and lie proceeded to advise
him to get a postponement, give bail if

ball on the strength of a $1,500
deposit in tlie Wynndotte Bank, and
Lloyd was released. Alfred and Martel
now induced Lloyd to return with them
to St. Louis, where they furnished him
a good room, plenty of oigars and oilier
evidences of their kindly regard for him,

out of Lloyd, lie was not disappointed.
After Alfred left tlie room Lloyd grew
confidential and related to Martel (lie
story of tlm wrecking, lie said Hint
there were sixteen others engaged in the
plot, Imt only live beside himself were
concerned in Its execution, (hi the night
in question they lmd secured a boat anil
rowed across tlie river to where tlie sec-tion
boss’ box of tools was standing.
They found a claw-bar outside of the
box. This they used to draw the aplkes,
and in a few minutes were ready to row
hack. They returned to the house in
which they lmd been lodging and heard
of tlm wreck the next morning. Lloyd
said In connection with this part of liis
confession: “I was tickled to dentil
when I heal'd of the wreck, hut 1 didn’t
like the Killing of tlie two men, I said
Il would hurt the order, Imt if my own
brother was under that wreck,I’m if
I'll go a step to get him out if lie was a
a seah.” He then proceeded to give the
names of Ids companions, to which piece
of information Martel’s ears were very
wide open, of course. That evening
Furlong was introduced to Lloyd under
the name of Mr. Thomas, lie was ac-companied
by an alleged Colonel 1 lay is,
who was represented to lie the lawyer
under whose advice .Alfred had acted in
securing Lloyd’s release on bail. Colo-nel
Davis, after hearing Lloyd’s plan of
defense in the sivitch-tlirowhignnd train
wrecking eases, said it was not worth
anything, and advised him to return to
Kansas City and warn ids confederates
to give leg bail and then getout of harm's
way himself. Thomas, Alfred, .Martel,
and Davis agreed to return with Lloyd
and help carry out tlie scheme. At their
suggestion lie wrote a letter each to liis
wife, tlie Mayor of Kansas City and the
men lie desired to warn, his companions
agreeing to deliver tlie letters. They
then took a special train to Kansas City
ami Lloyd grew confidential once more
and related the story of the wrecking to
another of tlie party.
1 TRI.ONli AS Ft.'KLOHti.
As they neared Independence the alle-ged
Mr. Thomas entered the dressing
room where Alfred was talking to Lloyd.
‘‘Brother Lloyd,” said Alfred, rising,
“let me introduce you to Brother
Thomas— Furlong.”
"What’s that?” said Lloyd, rising.
“Tills is Mr. Furlong,” said Alfred.
Furlong, of the Missouri I’aellle.”
When tlie trapped Knight realized Ills
situation the expression of Ills counte-nance
was pitiful indeed. He rose to his
teet, but soon sank into a chair and bur-led
liis face in liis hands. Hardened as
the detectives were by constant associa-tion
with criminality in its worst forms
they could not but pity him. They tried
to cheer him, but ns their kindly words
were accompanied by the production of
a pair ol hiiudcnlVs Lloyd did not pre-sent
a picture of contentment, lie un-dertook
at llrst to deny and explain
away Ills confession, but lie soon realiz-ed
how hopeless the task was and subsi-ded
into moody silence.
THE CAPTURE OP THE OTHERS.
Furlong’s mission now was to capture
i.loyd’s confederates before they learned
that lie had been trapped, Ho ordered
tlie special train side-tracked at Imlepcu-denee
ami loft Lloyd a prisoner in it,
jJiRU'ded by a snlHeient force, while he,
in company with several de.tcetivcs, pro-ceeded
to Kansas City. They called on
the County Attorney, made known their
business and secured tlie necessary war-rants.
Alfred, with Lloyd's letter of in-troduction,
called on Mayor liannen
without revealing his business and got
b'un to take a carriage and go to tlie
bouses of all the uicn who were wanted,
Lloyd’s letters were delivered and tho
men were notified of a conference on tho
following morning, for tlie purpose of
deciding upon future set loll. Ill (lie
meantime Furlong hunted up the Knight
of Labor Sheriff, revealed liis identity
and told him of Lloyd’s confession. Tho
revelation nearly paralysed tlie Sheriff,
hut after taking a few moments to think
it over lie agreed in good faith to help to
arrest tlie other conspirators. This was
done ns rapidly as possible and in less
than eight hours every one of them was
In custody. Their names are George
Hamilton. Mike I.earv, William Vossen,
Robert Gicrs and Fred. Newport, allot’
whom, like Lloyd, arc or have been
Knights ot Labor.

Completely and offered to make a full
ponfessiou when tlie detectives revealed
to him tile strength of their case. Vos-sen
not only wanted to confess, but in-sisted
on confessing, and, when the olli-oials
declined to hear his confession,
made a clean breast of tho matter to tlie
reporter of the St. l.ottis Glohc-Denioernt,
Newport proffered a confession, and, be-fore
tlie excitement quieted down, Leary
was the only one of tlie party who hail
not confessed or signified a willingness
to confess. When it became known in
Kansas City that a detective mine had
been exploded under their very feet tlie
citizens were in a high state of gratifica-tion.
They justly regarded tlie perpe-trators
of thp ijastnrdly outrage as a sig-nal
tlisjt the lap; liaij issjjmpil jtsyi-iufui
sway i'u.a'tjiat no more oqtrages w'oqld

Detective Furlong became i\t once the
hero of the hour, and there was much
more cuviosity to get a glimpse of tho
mqn who hail penetrated the secrete m
tlm conspiracy than there was to see the
handcuffed prisoners Who had been guil-ty
of it. it was tlie neatest piece of de-tective
work that has been executed in
tlie United States since McParlan fath-omed
ami laid bare the secrets of tlie
Mollie Maguire conspiracy in Penn-sylvania.

A Hare Relic,
William Hunt, a Uniopitown je.velor,
has In his possession a gold watch case,
of the “Dull’s eye’’ pattern which was
found some three years ago in Dunbar
j township, Fayette county. The orna-mentation
on the hack of the case is re-pousse
work and that of the edges in fili-gree
very ilnely executed, the work, us
is learned from Ids name, engraved in
line characters at tho bottom of the case,
ot the celebrated George Michael Moser,
who was born in Switzerland in 170f», and
of whom Sir Joshua Reynolds says:
‘‘He lmd a universal knowledge of all
painting and sculpture, and he may tru-ly
ho said in every sense to ho tho father
of tlie present race of artists.” The ar-tist
took for liis subject tlie “Judgment
ot Paris” tlie story of which is familiar
to all and which the artist lias very hap-pily
illustrated. When this old watch
was now it must have been worth a fabu-lous
sum, and the wearer, ifanolllcer of
Rraddock’s army, as is supposed, must
have been of high rank. This is the
only gold watch of the kind known, and
for it Mr. Hunt lias reined many otfeis,
saying that he would rather keep it, as
its history is most interesting, lie de-lights
in showing it to those curious in
such matters.
