Notary Public.

FRIDAY, JULY 5. 1895.

THE last fiscal year the government spent on an average over $100,000 a day in excess of its resources. The surplus which Wilson and Carlisle predicted has turned out to be a big deficit.

"GOLD is the universal standard of the world," said Senator Stewart of Nevada, in a speech in the Senate in 1874, after he had voted for silver demonetization in 1873. and yet the Senator has the audacity to say now the demonetization act passed without his knowledge of what it contained.

AMONG the acts of the last Legislature, which are now in force, is one prohibiting the publication and sale of pernicious literature. The authorities cannot get after some of these publishers any too soon. One of these dirty sheets is published at Indianapolis and it has a circulation in this city. It should be suppressed at once. The penalty for selling or ottering to sell such indecent literature is a fine of not less than $10 nor more than S200. This is a pointer for our policemen.

THE Chicago lutcr-Occuii of Tuesday ia one paragraph said: After all. the howl about its worthlessness the silver dollar still buys as much bread and meat and groceries as its yellow aristocratic brother does, and is far more popular with the common people.

In the same column separated by but one item it said: Gold is not aristocratic. It has for centuries jiugled with silver in the same pocket.

Now is gold aristocratic or is it not"? You can't tell from reading the IntcrOcean.

THE national bank circulation has increased 34.337,791 from $207,353,244 on July 1. 1894, to $211,691,035 July 1, 1895. Prom July 18, 1S94, to May 7, 1895, the nearest dates to the year obtainable, the loans and discounts of national banks have increased from 81,933,589,352 to $1,976,604,445, or near $43,000,000. During the same time individual deposites have increased from $1,677,801,200 to 81,689,901,209, or near $13,000,000. The lawful money reserve held by banks shows a heavy increase, lrom $364,102,757 to $438,931,970, or nearly $75,000,000.

THK bimetallists of England are greatly encouraged by the overthrow of the Rosebery Government. The new Government is markedly more friendly to international action for regulating the free coinage of gold and silver at fixed ratio than the old Government was. The bimetallic league has a very influential membership among the members of the House of Commons, bankers, merchants, manufacturers, land-owners, and labor organizations. English bimetallists

assert emphatically that their mcst dangerous enemies are the American fanatics who are now clamoring for free silver, and who are mononietallists without apparently being aware of it.

ON Saturday, June 15, 2,000 head of sheep were shipped from Washington county, Pennsylvania, to Pittsburg. They averaged 50 cents per head in open market. One lot of ninety-five Merinos was offered at $30. Three years ago such sheep were worth $2 or $2.50 per head. Verily, the Gorman tariff law which placed wool on the free list has brought about an era of cheapness! This is a shrinkage of seven-eighths in the value of the sheep, which is the raw material of wool. Has there been a seven-eighths decrease in the price of clothing?

THE GLOKIOUS.

Although one hundred and nineteen years have passed since the occasion that mafle July 4 distinguished among all other days to Americans, it cannot be said that the celebration of the anniversary is anywhere in all this broad land more honored in the breach than in the observance. To be sure the manner of celebration varies in different sections and changes with the progress of the years, but there is a celebration just the same. Perhaps, however, this change is only a seeming change. The fire-crackers don't seem so numerous and loud, nor the skyrockets so big and brilliant as they did when we were very young, but then when we visit old scenes where childhood's hours were passed we find that the same apparent condensation has been going on in all things. It may that crackers and rockets are even more loud and numerous than formerly and that fingers are burned more frequently and seriously, and that the poet of to-day can exclaim even more feelingly than the bard of a century ago,— The glorious Fourth will soon be here [wit all its usual noise, And many mas will miss the ears from off their darling boys.

But be the outward bombastic demonstration as it may, we can see now more plainly than when as children we saw darkly through the glass, the true spirit of Americanism shining brightly. We are sometimes prone to rail on the times and to deplore the decadence of patriotism. We do not hear martial music, we do not see long lines of men in blue, and so we incline to the opinion that they have gone forever by while in reality only the occasion for them is gone. There is as much or more genuine Americanism existing to-day in the hearts of the people as existed in the days of Washington and Lincoln. And upon the occasion it will appear in evidence. It appeared most strikingly last Summer during that treasonable attempt to inaugurate Debsism and it will appear whenever called for as did the genii which answered the lamp of Aladdin. We walk through our national cemeteries and are asked in the words of old."Why these stones?" but we cannot say that they mark, the graves of the last of American patriots. All around us are men who only lack occasion to be great. We have our Lincolns, our Grants, our "Man with the Musket" to-day, but just now we have need of them only in the sphereof that workaday life where after all may be evidenced as much valor, as much heroism and as much patriotic devotion as on the bloody battlefield.

Death of Jesse Vancleave.

Jesse Vancleave was born in Sheiby county, Kentucky, on March 27th, 1813, and died July 2, 1895, aged 82 years, three months and five days. In 1830 be came to Indiana and settled on a farm in Brown township, Montgomery county, where he resided until a few years ago, when unable to look after the farm himself he removed to New Market. In 1832 he was united in marriage with Ann McMullen, who died in 1831, leaving one child, Marjory Elizabeth. He was joined in marriage in 1835 with Ellen Sullenger, who died about one year later, leaving an infant, child. In February, 1839 he married Charity Brewer, who journeyed with him fifty-one years, and laid down life's burdens nearly five years ago, on illy 7, 1890. Five sons and two daughters were the result of this union. All of them are living and are here to-day except one, Joshua, who died Oct. 7, 1865. With him also sleeps Marjory Elizabeth, the only child by his first wife, who died May 7, 186S, and also the infant child by his second wife. He was adopted into the family of God about fifty years ago under the preaching of John O'Kane. He loved the family of his adoption and tried in his weakness, by the help of the Spirit of God, to honor the great head of that family by reading His word and keeping his commandments. He believed in God. He believed in God's Son. He believed in God's Holy Spirit. He believed in God's Holy Book. He never wavered in his faith or in his service. He delighted to go up to the House of the Lord. His place among us will be vacant now, as far as we can see but it never was so beforp. Death only had power to rob his place of its occupant. Several years ago he met with airaccident which, doubtless, caused a Avere spell of sicicness that soon f(^Bwed and the failing mental and i^ftical

strength of the last few years. Last Friday morning he arose almost as well as usual, ate a hearty breakfast and lay down on the sofa. Soon he vomited freely and became at once wholly helpless and unconscious, in which state he remained until 4:45 Tuesday morning. July 2d. when at the rising of the sun the spirit went out to God, who gave it. May it be an eternal sunrise to the soul.

ROAD SUPERVISORS.

The Attorney-General of Indiana Decides Unit tlie In-Coming Township Trustf'* AliiHt Appoint isupervigons ill August, 181J3.

iThere has been considerable discussion concerning the law governing the appointment of Road Supervisors by the new Township Trustees upon their taking office on August 5, 1895. In the change of the law governing the case, it is stated that they should be appointed for the same length of term as for which they had been heretofore elected—"four years." But from what date was the appointment to begin was the main issue. A letter was sent the Attorney-General Ketcham, and he upholds the opinion of the former Attorney-General Smith, to-wit: That the new Trustees are to appoint Road Supervisons in August, 1895. This opinion is therefore the law governing the matter until otherwise decided by the Supreme Court, and it will be the duty for the in-coming Trustees to appoint. The ruling of Attorney-General Smith can be found on page 5 of the supplement of his report for 1894, and is as follows:

By the act of 1891, road supervisors are elected for four years at the same time that township officers are elected, and they hold until their successors are elected and qualified. Under the provisions of llouse bill No. 16S, the election of road supervisors as well as other township officers, is changed from April to November, but by a still further enactment, Senate bill No. 354, road supervisors instead of being elected are appointed by the township trustees, but their terms of office are the same as now provided by law, so that supervisors heretofore elected will continue until the trustees of their respective townships are succeeded by persons chosen at the next election (Nov. 1894). Therefore, Road Supervisor, instead of being elected at the same time of Township Trustees, will be appointed by them and hold for and during the same period.

This decision was made on March 30, 1S93. and the present Attorney-General, W. A. Ketcham, writes under the date of July 1, 1895, as follpws concerning the matter: "Under the decision of the late At-torney-General, Hon. A. G. Smith, the new Trustees have the right to appoint Road Supervisors on taking office, regardless of any appointment which may have been made by their predecessors. I am satisfied Mr. Smith's opinion is good law. and I have repeatedly so decided."

FIFTY THOUSAND DELEGATES.

Monster Convention of the Christian Endeavor Societies Next Week. BOSTON, July 8.—Next Tuesday there opens in Boston the largest religious gathering that has ever assembled in America. There will be more than 50,000 delegates present during the five days of the Christian Endeavor convention, July 10 to 15, representing every state and province in North America, and no less than seventeen different nations. Over 1,000 addresses will be delivered. The largest auditorium in Boston will not hold one-fifth of the delegates, so, in addition to the immense Mechanics' Fair building, two mammoth tenths have been made for the convention, and these will be pitched on Boston common.

The convention opens with twenty simultaneous meetings in as many of the largest churches of Boston Wednesday evening. Thursday afternoon the convention will split up into a number of lesser meetings, the members of each denomination going by themselves to hold a rally. On Saturday the delegates will repair to Boston common, where a monster open-air good-citizenship demonstration is to be held. The speeches will be made from the hill on which the soldiers' monument sU.nd.s. On its crest will be local ed the chorus of 3,000 voices to lead the singing of patriotic hymns. The instrumental music will be oil a correspondingly large scale. Dr. S. F. Smith, author of "America,'' has written an original hymn, which he will read on this occasion.

LYNCHED.

Angered at His IteHpite a Mob Hairgs the Slayer of a Little Girl. DENTON, Md., July 3.—Marshall E. Price, who was recently convicted of the murder of Sallie E. Dean, the 14-year-old school girl, in February, and sentenced to be hanged on Friday next, was taken from the jail here at 11 o'clock Tuesday night and hanged to a tree in the jail yard.

Price begged piteously of the jail officers that they protect him when the crowd .of strange men battered down the door of the prison, but the jailers, seeing that they were outnumbered probably fifty to one, could do nothing and offered little resistance.

The respite granted to Prire pending the notion of the court of attoeals (which will not meet until October), so enraged the citizens of Caroline county that the action of the mob is hardly a surprise. All day groups of men stood about discussing the murder and Price's efforts to implicate School Teacher Corkran in the crime. It is not known whether any of the lynchers were recognized, but no attempt was made to oonceal their identity.

A TRAIN ROBBED.

Three Men "Hold Up" the Southern Paciflo "Overland." I NO BOOTY SECURED IN EXPRESS CAR.

The Thieves Then Rob the Passengers, Sparing, However, the Ladles and Workingmen—They Escape with About 83,000.

GRANT'S PASS, Ore., July 3. The Southern Pacific "overland," northbound, was stopped Monday night at 10:15 by three highwaymen near Riddles, about 30 miles south of Roseburg, and robbed. Sticks of dynamite were placed on the rails, which disabled the engine by blowing the flanges off the pony trucks and brought the train to a stop.

Rob the Passengers.

Taking the fireman, two of the highwaymen proceeded to go through the train, and every car, from the express-car to the rear Pullman, was searched. Nothing was obtained from the express-car, for there was no treasure on board. In the mail-car better success was met, and Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and Victoria, B. C., registered sacks were rifled. Passengers were also searched pretty thoroughly, but just what success was met with is not known.

One highwayman took a hasty shot at Conductor Kearney, who was in charge of the train, but no damage resulted.

One of the men was 5 feet 11 inches tall, light complexion, light mustache, projecting upper jaw, very heavy pointed chin, two upper front teeth projecting and high cheek bones. He wore about a No. 8 shoe with tacks in the bottoms, lie had on blue overalls. The description of the other is that o.f a man about-5 feet 8 inches in height, but as he kept in the background a definite description could not be liad.

A Posse In Pursuit.

Superintendent Fields, oi trie southern Pacific, in an hour after learning of the hold-up had two parties on the way to the scene of the robbery. A posse of officers was hastily made up in Roseburg and started at once, and another of rough-and-ready mountaineers started from here. Every effort) will b« made to capture the robbers. The men of the party starting from here are thoroughly familiar with every foot of ground in the neighborhood of the robbery, and good hopes are entertained of capturing the robbers.

The train was delayed several hours, being compelled to turn the engine around and back into Roseburg.

A sticir of dynamite was found near the scene of the robbery, also a hat and a flour sack from Myrtle Creek mills. It is thought the robbers got about §3,000.

Reward Offered.

The sheriff is now in hot pursuit and a joint reward of 82,000 for the capture of each robber has been offered by Wells Fargo and the Southern Pacific companies.

AVorklngmen Spared.

The robbers, in going through the train, passed all who had the appearance of being workingmen, but made others hold up their hands while they went through their pockets, the robbers standing over them with pistols. The sheriff of Klamath county was on board with a prisoner. The robbers appropriated the sheriff's pistol. None of the ladies in the car were molested during the time the train was held up, one hour and forty-five minutes being consumed. The robbers outside kept firing sticks of dynamite to intimidate the passengers. After the chief robber had secured his booty he ordered the engineer to proceed north for one hour. He then shot out the headlight and firing five additional shots, which were signal shots to his companions, disappeared in the darkness,

W FUNDS FOR CHINA.

A Loan of 85,000,000 la Negotiated in London. LONDON, July 3.—The Central News learns that a contract has been signed in Loudon for a loan of £1,000,000 to China, and that £10,000 has already been remitted. This is an imperial loan and is intended to enable China to meet certain obligations lor armaments pending the completion of arrangements for the indemnity loan. The loan is issued through the chartered bank of India, Australia and China at 100 and bears 6 per cent, interest.

BLOWN UP BY DYNAMITE.

Crime of a Revengeful Lover of a Drainage Canal Belle. T.EMONT, 111., July 3.—In the village of Romeo, Tuesday morning, a house containing five women was blown to atoms by dynamite placed beneath it by the rejected lover of one of the women. Luke Hoyle and Tim Hoise were aspirants for the hand of Mollie Biers, and when Hoise was chosen Hoyle obtained dynamite from the drainage channel works and revenged himself. All the women were hurt, three perhaps fatally. Hoyle was arrested.

Will Locate at Ottawa.

OTTAWA, 111., July 3.—The trustees of the Norwegian Lutheran college in session here decided to locate the proposed institution in this city. Ottawa gives the college thirteen acres of ground and about 912,000 in cash.

Cyclists on Parade.

CHICAGO, July 3.—The illuminated bicycle parade took place Tuesday night over the park boulevards of the three divisions of the city, converging at Garfield park. From 5,000 to 6,000 joined in the parading.

Ohio University's New President. COLUMBUS, O., July 3.—James H. Canfield has been installed as president of the Ohio state university at Columbus. He came from the University of Nebraska

BY FRANK B. WELCII.

If there was a wilder specimen of reckless, tough-hided humanity in the world than Bud Bradley, the residents of the sandy, sun-dried little western town of Lovelocks didn't know it. Everybody knew Bud like a town pump, and they all declared they didn't know any good of him but this was said more in a good-natured spirit than from any ill will they bore him, for he was known to be, like most of his class, full of fun and generous to a fault.

When Bud was in town the town generally knew it. There was sure to be a cloud of dust sailing around in his wake. He was ever on the move, and when he moved the earth trembled— that is to a limited extent—and it came to be a saying among the people of that region when any disturbance was afoot: "It's either a stampede of cattle or Bud Bradley's broke loose again." Some of the quietly disposed members of the little community hoped the harum-scarum fellow would get a lesson some day that •would tone him down a trifle and give their nerves a rest.

And he got it. It was on the glorious Fourth of July, and Bud was not only jolted nearly to a jelly, but he was mortified beyond measure, and all through his own insane efforts to fittingly celebrate the anniversary of our national independence according to his preconceived notion.

Such a thing as a Fourth of July celebration was never thought of in that part of the country it was too far away from civilization. There were firearms and firewater enough, but fireworks were not to be had without sending abroad for them. The cowboys sometimes had what they termed a little "flareup," a sort of Bacchanalian revel with gun-play trimmings, but this kind of demonstration was too tame for Bud, and he made up his mind to introduce a change in the programme, and some days beforehand he laid his plans and warned the boys to be on the watch, for there was going to be such a display in Lovelocks on the coming Fourth as would cause the American eagle to "flap his wings and crow 'Yankee Doodle."'

The Fourth of July came around and found Lovelocks as quiet, drowsy and dusty as on any other day of the year, and, with the exception of an occasional knot of two or three cattlemen lounging about the doorways of the stores, there was nobody astir. Thus

the almost torrid day" dragged through to its close, and the loungers began to wonder what had become of Bud and his promised exhibition. They lingered on until the lights began to glint here and there in the windows, and just as they had abandoned the hope of seeing "Bud's circus" tlv\y were brought up standing by the rush of something down the main street, that to their startled senses resembled a six-tailed fiery comet with skyrocket attachments on a rampage.

It was only Ihid. Yes, no mistake about that anil such a spectacle they never had witnessed, lie was astride a wildly charging steer to whose long horns were tied a couple oY tall streaming flags and at whose tail hung a huge bunoli of exploding firecrackers, while from end to end the frenzied creature was bedecked with streamers of red, white and blue. Bud himself was a sight to behold. Ilis face was streaked (a la redskin) with red, white and blue, a dozen small flags were stuck round his hatband and in each hand was a monster Roman candle belching forth balls of variegated fire at every jump of the maddened animal he bestrode.

Through the town the blazing apparition streaked it, accompanied by the unearthly yells of its moving spirit and urged on by the fusillade of pistol shots and cries which its appearance had awakened. But, alas, there was chaos lurking in the gloaming. Into the open doorway of a neat little cottage at a turn in the road the jubilant Bud was cast headlong, and away to its native heath bolted his terrified steed. And the worst of all was tha,t the chapfallen fellow was deposited in a tangled mass at the feet of the only girl in the world whose love he cared to win.

Bud made his escape and was not seen in town for several days, and when he did show up he sported a patch on his face and a limp, and when interrogated concerning his great Fourth oi July celebration with great vehemence he ejaculated: "Oh, come off!" But he got the girl all right.
