The pickpocket is taking advantage of the many opportunities for operation preseuted by tho confusion attending political demonstrations.

Tho drills at the gas well have again beon at a standstill during the last week, operations being Impeded by the flow of water, which It has been impossible to shut off. Tho hole is now 2515 feOt deep. Tho indications for gas are not very promising. But there is consolation in the fact that all the outlay of time and moa«y

Block coal is now selling at $L50 per ton, a rather cheap rate compared with the extortionate prices made by the pool last winter. An advance is probable on the first of the month, but it is generally accepted that prices will not reach the figures of last reason. There was a reaction against the use of block coal and in favor of a cheaper grade of the bituminous coal, last winter, which was qutte disastrous to the block coal interests, and as a result the pool will possi bly endeavor this year to regain the ground lout then, by allowing more liberal rate*. The local coal exchange was not so successful last season as during the year previous, quite a number of the retail dealers operating independently, bat there is nevertheless some talk of a reorganisation for the coming winter. The hope of finding lite gaa belt In this vicinity Is test fading away, and so long as this luxury is beyond reach, efforts shoald be directed toward holding the coal, which la to be found on every aid* within the possibilities of a frugal purse.

The one square, extending from Sev enth to Eighth streets on Ohio was probably the scene of more excitement and noise on Saturday evening last than has been any one square !n the city for a long time. A political duel, as it might be termed, was the cause. At the Democratic wigwam on Eighth, Congressman Mills held the boards, while at the Republican wigwam, but one tare away, Frederick Douglass, the bllvery beaded colored orator, was the center of attraction. The excitement was intense. Escorts were continually marching back and forth, tin horns by the hundred were blasted each successive mini: and above all, increasing the confusi to pandemonium, were the outbursts of enthusiasm which alternately greeted each speaker as he made point after point. To say that the crowd at one meeting surpassed that at the other would be untrue, for there were very few people in either audience who did not at some time during the evening leave one meeting to spend short time at tho other. Fred Douglass has not been here since the Blaine visit in 1884, and his reception was very flattering Mr. Mills, who is the author of the now famous tariff reduction bill, can equally boast of a hearty reception.
Among the political events of this week, was the Republican meeting on Monday evening, at which Miss Anna Dickinson, quite well known as a politi cal speaker, addressed an immense aud ience. She spoke at great length on the issues and held the audience in the closest attention until tho close. The meeting was purely a local demonstra tion, as was that of Fred Douglass.
Mr. Webb Casto, the well known far mer of .Sugar Creek, was shot twice Monday afternoon on the draw of tho river bridge by a man named David Frost. The wounds, one iu the flesh of the leg and the other in the abdomen, while quite serious in naturo, arc not necessarily fatal and there are hopes of an early re covery. The shooting was the result of a dispute, in which it seems Frost was the aggressor. Mr. Casto was on his way homo, having been in the city on business. As be was going through tho bridge, according to the story of witnesses, Frost, who was accompanied by his wife, and walking in tho bridgo applied an insulting epithet to him. As Mr. Casto..did not resent it the remark was repeated, whoreupon, Mr. Casto got out of Ills wagon and gave Frost a sound whipping. As he let Frost up, Mrs. Frost attacked him, while engaged with her, the husband ran to the end of the bridge and returned with a revolver. He flred four shots at Mr. Casto, two taking effect. Frost then endeavored to escapo, but was caught at Maxville by tho police. Both husband and wife are ow in jail, awaiting investigation by the grand jury. The affair *yas very unfortunate in every respect. Mr. Casto is strong man constitutionally and this will materially increase the -chances of his recovery.
Prof. Kilbournc, the music teacher, was shot last night at about half past ton, as he was returning to his home, 001 south Seventh street. As he was passing the residence of Capt. A. C. Ford on south Sixth street at the point whore Crawford street intersects with the form er street he,was met by two men who, he thought, were about to pass him. In stead, one of them stepped in front of bim and said, "Stand! for your life. Prof. Kilboume mado an attempt to strike the speaker with his cane. Im mediately one of tho two men shot ai him, the bullet missing him. A second shot was immediately tired, tho bullet striking the profesor in the right arm above tho elbow. Tho otber man stood atone side during the short attack and then both ran west on Crawford street Mr. Froob, who wsis not far away, cam up and took the professor to his home. A telephone message was sent to police headquarters from the residence of Mr. J. R. Duncan, near where the as sault WHS mado. Doctors Link and Stunkard attended the wounded man who was suffering from nervous excite ment. Tho hall had passed through the arm, ranging upward, and it is thought struck the bone. One of the men wa* about medium *i*e, Prof. Kilbournc says. One wore a black hat aud the oth er a white hat. One wore clothing of a light color and the other dark. Two such men were seen by several persons last evening and the evening previous.

Talking about wholesale shoe houses. It is well lo note the fact that T. J. Griffith has for a long time been doing a large wholesale business in addition to his retail trade. Next August he will have been in business twenty years. There is only one other dealer here who was then ee! ling shoes in this city. Year after year his trade has grown until now 'has three floors filled with goods. The ground fl'" of No. 22 south Fourth street is b.-voted to the retail trade, while the basement and upper floor are now being filled wi^i goods for the wkolc-*aIt- trade, and Mr. Griffith claims to be able to enmpptn with any wholesale house which, xuuy be established in this city. He hasn't a dollar's worth of goods not bought with ready cash thus securing liuiye discounts, giving bim great advantage over those buying tin the usual time.
