anxious for the transfer. Tbe enlisted rnen- are Unanimous on the point. Most of these soldiers tire college-bred, and have been indnced to enlist in the army for instruction in meteorelogy as a false pretense that they were tab given a etart In life which would be invaluable to them. Congressional action en this subject may be delayed for some little time, because of the difficulty experienced in inducing the- House to take any steps that might involve th expenditure of an, extra dollar. If the Weather Bureau is transfered to the civil service: of the eovern-

This will doubtless double the expense- attendant upon tbe service, and for that reason there- will be-considerable delay, without doubt, in making the chano. . Air. Manning Health. Washington, Feb. 6. Mr. Manton Marble, has been a guest of Secretary Manning for several days, returned to New York last evening.. Just before leaving he said, with reference to. certain published reports concerning Mr. Manning's condition: I pereeive absolutely no impairment of his mental faculties? and as to his physical condition, while, of course, he cannot now work as many hours a day as he did last year, to my personal knowledge his progress toward sound health has been continuous and uninterrupted since last summer, and has been more rapid since his return to the Treasury Department, last October, although his office is by tar the most exacting and laborious in the federal government. The stories that he is unable to sign his own name are entirely unfounded. He signs his name to warrants, checks, appointment papers and letters score of times daily, and as a matter of fact his. daily work now would overwhelm many younger men." General and Personal.

The Daily Chronicle of Happenings, of AU Kinds in the Two. States, Finding: of the Body of an Unidentified Woman Revival at Elkharfc-Tbe Montgomery Judicial Circuit Gleanings. I.N DIANAFinding of an Uoidentllled Body Which Is Thought To Be Miss Mabbitt's Remains. Special to the Indiatiaoolis Journal. Lapatette, Feb. 6. This evening1 the undressed, partially decomposed body of a unknown woman waa found in- a pile of drift-wood in the Wabash river, nine miles below Lafayette. The body teas brought to this city tonight, and now lies at an undertaker's. The police have a descripcion of the missing girl, Lou Mabbitt of Carroll county, wh disappeared Aug. 6, in company with . her rejected lover, Amor Green. " There is nothing about the body by which it can be indentifxed except the fact that Miss Mabbitt had an upper front tooth that had been broken off, and such is the case with the remains of the unknown. In addition, there is one front tooth missing from the lower jaw. There was no clothing on the body when it was discovered by boys playing near tbe river bank. The police believe the body is that of Miss Mabbitt The Montgomery Judicial Circuit. Specikl to th lo.diansaslls Journal. Crawfordsville, Feb. 5. Muob. feeling is being manifested here in opposition to Senator Bailey's bill to attach, Hendricks county to Montgomery county for judicial purposes. The bar held a meeting this morning at the court-bouse, lion. P. S. Kennedy presiding, and passed energetic resolutions denouncing such a change. Forty weeks' court in a year is now barely sufficient to dispose of the business of the Montgomery court, and with all tbe well-known energy and business qualities of Judge E. C. Snyder, the docket is yet four months behind. Now, as the bar of Hendricks county is equally opposed to the bill, there is no valid reason why such a measure should be further pushed. Everybody seems to b opposing and no person fororing the bill. Senator Mitchell, of Fountain and Wan-en counties-, was present at the meeting. The following are the resolutions adopted, having been prepared by Judge T. N. Davidson, W. W. Thornton; and 3. M. Seller; in politics two Democrats and one Republican: Whereas,. In 1873 the counties of Montgomery and Parke were constituted the Twenty-second judicial circuit,, and Montgomery county was given twenty weeks of court in each year, and said 60unties so constituted said circuit until 1S85. at which time the business- on the do&et of tbe Montgomery Circuit Court was over fifteen months behind to ssch aa extent that the Legislature, in 1885, found it necessary to constitute Montgomery county a separate circuit, the Twenty-second, giving said circuit forty weeks of court, all of which time for two years has been fully occupied, and at the present time a case cannot be tried in said court until the second term after it is commenced; and Whereas, There is now a bill pending in the present Legiblatmre to attach Hendricks county to said Twenty-second circuit, sid thereby reduce the number of weeks in which court can be held in Montgomery county to at least twenty-four weeks, to the great detriment and injury of Utijrants in said county; and Whereas. There is no direct railroad communica tion between the county-seats of Hendricks and Mont gomery counties, they being by rail sixty-five miles apart; and, Whereas, xne people or botb counties are opposed to said bill and said proposed change; therefore, be it Ktsolved, I hat we are opposed to said bill and to any change being made in said Twenty-second circuit, and w earnestly recommend and request our Senators and Kepresentatires to oppose its passage and use au honorable means to defeat it, and we earnestly appeal to all Senators and Representatives of this present General Assembly to not pass said bill nor change tho present status of said Twenty-second judicial circuit.

A TtVTTL OS TTIlff ROAD.

Tw9 North Carolina Politicians Settle Cam paign Disputes Where They Meet. EaleiRfc N. CL. special. . Dr. J. OWilcox is the Renublican leader of Asbe county, and Mr. John Baker is one of tbe leading Democrat of the same county. During last falFs campaign a bitter feud sprang up between the men in discussine nolitical rmastions. As tho campaign around Ashe county progressed it was with the greatest difficulty that a duel be tween tbem was at that time nrevented. Th election came off. and the Republicans earried the eounty by nearly three hundred majority. Wilcox gloried and exulted in the victory, and the defeat of his enemies, and again denounced Baker. Matters passed off at this until yesterday. Dr. Wileox had been visiting a patient, and on his return home met Baker in the road. No one was present except the two principal Baker invited Wilcox to halt, which he did. Baker then said that he could not longer submit to the denunciations of Wilcox, and had only done so this length of time in deference to the pleadings of his wife. He then declared that he could not live any longer without a settlement of the difficulty according to the code. ' "I am ready and anxious said Dr. Wilcox, to accommodate you at any time and iu any manner you desire." "Are you arniedF asked Baker. 4 'Yes," replied the Doctor. Each pulled his pistol and it was examined by be other and handed back to the owner. It was a nice, level piece cf road where they met, and it was agreed that they would mark off fifteen paces and take their stations and commence and continue to fire until one or both were hurt or their weapons exhausted. This agreement was so well executed that five rounds were fired, and on the last round Baker was shot through ine neaa ana is said to be mortally wounded Wilcox then gave Baker the benefit of his skill aa a physician and saw him safely home. Baker immediately sent for his friends and made a statement, embodying these facts, and said that he pressed the duel on Wilcox and that Wilcox only acted in self-defense. Wilcox is a man of high character and is known as a desperate man when aroused. He has several times been elected to the Legislature from his county; and has never been defeated. On examination Wilcox found two bullet holes through his hat and one in his clothes. Wilcox married a Miss Henry, of this city, and has several children. ROMANCE OF A CONVENT. flow a Beautiful Bostnntan Married th i Man of Her Choice. Montreal Special.. Last September Miss Flora Lee, a beautiful young Bostonian, was placed in school here in one of the most fashionable convents of tbe Dominion. The young lady had, unknown to her parents, formed a deep, attachment to Frank Howard, scion of another Boston family; and rebelled against the confinement here. The couple managed to keep up s secret correspondence, which resulted in Howard soming to Montreal. ! -11 Jl . , kuiuM ubb was anoweu u pay occasional visits to uatnoiic inenas ra tne city; ana.wnue on one or these visits she eluded their vigilance, met her lover, went with hint to St. Henri, a neighboring municipality, where the- pair were- married. The lady returned to the convent, it being decided that the marriage should be kept a secret until her return to Boston. She continued to visit, her young husband, and on one of these trips was detected, questioned and confessed the truth. Her mother was summoned and came to this city in great haste. Tbe Lady Superior threatened to expel the girl at once, hut was restrained.. Mrs. Lee used every means to persuade her daughter to return to Boston, hut the latter refused, not wishing to give her young friends at the Hub an opportunity to scandalize her. Tbe youne couple finally took a cottage on the outskirts of the city, where they will remain until the proper time for returnine to Boston arrives. Howard has obtained a position ic acity bank. The eonvent authorities have made great efforts to keep the affair private, for the sake of the reputation of the institution. . Democracy and. Knights of Labor. Huntington Herald. The Knights of Labor have received another snub from Democracy. Last fall, when the Knights presented a candidate a eood Democrat to tbe Democratic convention of Allen county as a senator in the General Assembly. they were ingioriously snubbed. The same was true when a candidate was presented by them to the Democratic Representative convention of Alien and Huntington counties. The Republicans however, supported that man, and in a district Democratic by nearly four thousand, the Democrat nominated secured the election by a bare few hundred votes. Now, when the laboringmen presented a candidate for the United States Senate a workincraan and a soldier the Democracy voted solidly against him, casting their support to one of whom a leading Democrat said he sympathized with the unhappy South in the dark days of her distress. Laboring men and soldiers, this is Democratic record. J$ . ' The Revival In the Senate. Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. Ten United States Senators were present, yesterday, when the opening prayer began, and seven more entered during its. progress, making seventeen, four less than half a quorum.

The little girls, none of whom were over ten years- of age, with their dolts, created a good deal of merri ment, and the turning ef the small boys was another applauded feature. The plastic tableaux, America "Kruzer Abschied" and 'Hercules and Lichias," were excellent in every particular. Other features of the programme were equally interesting, and the success of the exhibition in point of attendance was great. Bills Indorsed by the Knights. The legislative committee from the Knights of Labor of this district held a meeting in the When Block, yesterday afternoon, and indorsed House bill No. 25, which provides for thfr repeal of the law taxing funda in a. building and loan association The law, they claim, ia. unjust,, for the reason that where a man builds a house with building association finds be is compelled to pay taxes on double the amount of his money. They also agreed to recommend the passage of a bill shortening tbe hours, of labor in all factories where children are employed, in order that they may have more time to attend school.
