Fatal Election Row in Virginia. A WHOLESALE shooting took place, at Bickley’s Mills, near Lynchburg, Va., while an election on the liquor-license question was progressing. William Porter was shot three times and expired almost immediately. Joo Sargent and Martin Johnson received mortal wounds, and Swin Howell was shot in the breast, tut will probably recover. Several other persons were slightly wounded. The trouble grew out of an old grudge. < barged with Embezzling SII,OOO. E. L. Whittaker, bookkeeper and confidential clerk for the plumbing firm of Smith & Connors, of Cleveland, Ohio, has been arrested for embezzling the firm’s money. The shortage is said to be SII,OOO. Whittaker had been employed by Smith & Connors for five years. He declares that he is a member of the firm, and that the shortage can be explained. EASTERN OCCURRENCES. Postmaster Pearson, of New York City, is dead. His affliction was tumor of the stomach. He was about fortyseven years of age. The biggest and fiercest fire NewYorkers have witnessed hi this generation swept the east bank of the North River from Fifty-ninth street to what would be Sixty-fifth street if that street ran to the river. It destroyed more than $1,500,000 worth of property belonging to the New York Central Railroad, and at least $500,000 worth of lard, four, and the like, belonging to other persons, notably N. K. Fairbank, the great Chicago lard merchant. The flames destroyed the two big elevators, “A” and “B,” of the Vanderbilt system; a big brick building stretching from Fifty-ninth street to Sixtieth street, and occupied jointly by the Fairbank Lard Refinery and the Rossiter stores, and wiped out the dock property of the New York Central Railroad system from Fif-ty-ninth to past Sixty-fifth street. At least one man was killed in his headlong flight from the fire. A number were injured jumping from the windows of the burning building. The following list includes the killed and injured so far as is known: Henry Benning, John Johnson, Charles Brown, William J- Noble, and

Edward H. Tobin. The financial loss will reach $3,355,000, largely covered by insurance. The proposed prohibition amendment to the Constitution was defeated in Massachusetts by about 44,000 votes. Stanton Blake, a well-known ciCzen of Boston, died, aged 52. WESTERN HAPPENINGS. The returning base-ballists were accorded a great reception in Chicago on the 19th inst. They were received at the depot, and a procession escorted them to the Palmer House, where they were entertained at a royal banquet. Simon Houts, a citizen of Attica, Ind,, shot and killed his wife and then committed silicide by shooting himself through the heart. Mrs. Houts received three wounds—one through the heart, another in the shoulder and the third in the hand. About an hour before the tragedy Houts and his wife were in Attica Hading and talking with their acquaintance'-'. After arriving at home they put their five children in bed and then prepared to retire themselves. Thu bodies presented a ghastly spectacle, the clothes of each and the bedding being saturated with blood. j The application of the Hamilton County Saloonkeepers’ Association for incor- 1 poration has been denied by Secretary of State Ryan, of Ohio, on the ground that the objects for which the society was organized—i. e., the antagonism of the liquor laws of Ohio—is unlawful and not to be encouraged. The Secretary announces that he will incorporate no body proposing to subvert State government, and organized for the sole purpose of raising funds to fight the laws already on The statute books. He says itisagiinst the best interests of the people and public policy. A horrible death from hydrophobia is reported from Jacksonville, a small town | twelve miles west of Crawfordsville, Ind. ! About nine weeks ago Solomon Shoos, a young man of 22 years, was bitten by a dog, but not until recently did he show any symptoms of the disease. He then became so violent that lite bad to be hand cuffed. He died in terrible agony. Another farmer, named John Todd, who was bitten, will not recover. A number of cattle which were attacked and bitten by tho dog have also died of hydrophobia. The stieet-car barns at Rock Island, 111., have been destroyed by fire. The loss is estimated at $15,000. Fifteen cars and forty-two horses were burned. Major Daniel C. O’Driscoll, for many years a lawyer of Cleveland, Ohio, but recently a pension agent at Washington, has been convicted in the United States Circuit Court at Cleveland of violating the pension laws. O’Driscoll was charged with withholding SI,OOO of $l,lOO pension obtained by him for Mrs. Phoebe Rich, Bail was refused and the prisoner was committed to jail. James W, Helm, who mysteriously disappeared from Danville, HL, in March, has returned to that city. He says that when he loft home he was in a trance from which he recovered in. Silver Springs, Ela. He can give no details of thmtrip. At Muscatine, lowa, Drummond Wilson, aged Id, son of the Rev. W. G. Wil- , son, a Methodist minister, was killed by a switch engine.

A bold attempt at bank robbery was made at Ventura,Cal.,by a man named McCarthy. He entered Collins & Sons’ bank while the cashier, Collins, was gone to lunch, leaving Jack Morrison alone. McCarthy entered and complained of his poverty, and the desperation which had drawn him to think of suicide. He laid a package on the counter which he said was dynamite, and drew a six-shooter and demanded $30,000. Morrison dodged behind the counter and ran out of the back door. The robber then seized a tray containing about $4,000 and walked into the street. Morrison gave the alarm and peo- ' pie gathered on the street, but uo one was । armed. The thief had his horse hitched near the bank and was making for that. The Sheriff happened to be near, but was j without firearms. He stepped into a hardware store and seized a shot-gun, when the robber suddenly surrendered. The money was all recovered except S2O which was probably lost on the street. A special from Ozark, Mo., says a guard has been placed over the condemned Bald-Knobbers. Dave Walker intimated very plainly th at the Sheriff would not have an opportunity to tie the halter around his neck if the Governor should fail to interfere, and as soon as the officer heard of this declaration the guard was placed in the jail to prevent the Knobbers’ chief and his associates from making any attempt to cheat the gallowo by suicide. It is not thought that John Matthews has nerve enough to seriously meditate suicide, but the Walkers are made of much sterner stuff, and, when the hope of commutation deserts them, no one would be surprised should they attempt to cheat the gallows by’ self-destruction. A startling trapedv his occurred C V among the colored population of Lincoln, Neb. Robert Woods, an old, good-nat-ured colored man who worked for the city, was shot in the head and neck with a shotgun, causing almost instant death. He was asleep in bed and the assassin shot through a window over the bed where he was asleep. He was discovered when his wife camo home. The gun was loaded with slugs. John Taylor and Charles Curtiss, both colored, were arrested for the crime, and Taylor confessed that he did the shooting with Curtiss’ gun and that the latter was to pay him SSO for committing the deed. The slaughter house and pork-packing establishment of F. A. Laidly & Co., on Spring Grove avenue, immediately north of the stock yards, at Cincinnati, Ohio, has been destroyed by fire. How the fire started is a matter of surmise. The establishment was of brick, very large an I finely appointed. The loss was complete, and will be between $225,000 and $250,000. The establishment was well insured in various companies. SOUTHERN INCIDENTS. Near Glencoe. Ky., a freight train dashed into the rear of the through passenger, wrecking the rear car and bruising, though not fatally injuring, several passengers. The safe in the law office of Hubbard & Conley, at Elkton, Md., was blown by burglars, and $4,800 in money and notes taken. George Jones, a colored man, was arrested, charged with complicity in the case. He confessed, and was bound over to the Criminal Court. THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. The President has appointed the following commission to negotiate with the Sioux Indians of Dakota: Gon. George Crook, U. S. A.; the Hon Charles Foster, of Ohio, and the Hou. William Warner, of Kansas City, Mo. Irving Miller, of Chicago, a son of Justice Miller, is appointed secretary and disbursing officer of the commission. Paul Vandervoort has been appointed superintendent of mails at Omaha, Neb., and Henry A. Thomas superintendent of mails at Boston, Mass. Corporal Tanner, the Commissioner of Pensions at Washington, D. C., has rendered an important decision on the application of John Webb of Indiana for an increase c'’ pension fiom $24 to S3O a saonth. Webb is receiving the former rate

for varicose! veins of the left leg, and asked for the increase on the ground that total disability in the foot now exists. In granting tho increase asked for the Commissioner says in his opinion that it was not the intention of Congress । in using the words “total disability” to debar claimants from pension from the. j benefits of the act unt.l the hand, foot, j arm, or Jog is a worthless incumbrance. I Hereafter, he says, total disability shall be held to exist when the affected mem- • ber, by reason of wound, injury, or disease, is useless in the performance of ordinary manual labor. ACROSS THE OCEAN. There was serious rioting in Vienna, arising out of the strike of tram-car drivers. Workmen in sympathy with the strikers blocked the streets and overcame the police. A force of cavalry had to be called out to quell the disorder. Many i persons were injured and a large number arrested. A Vienna special .states: “The strikes of the tram-car men are nearly over, but the rioting for which tho strike was made the pretext continues. A formidable mob stoned the cavalry and held them at bay । until tho soldiers were re-enforced by a I large detachment of infantry. A charge | was then made upon the crowd, and many j lof them were wounded. A large number | ol arrests were made and the mob finally I diepeised. The workingmen have steadily | refused to join the mob, which is mainly i composed of merely anti-Semitic hirelings and socialist ruffians.” FRESH AND NEWSY. All of the passengers and crew of tho Danmark were saved. Mr. Raben, the । first officer, who is among them, reports | that on April 4 the Danmark’s shaft was , broken. The next day the disabled steamer met the steamship Missouri, | from London, March 28, for Philadelphia and Baltimore. The Missouri towed the Danmark until the 6th, when the latter seemed to be about to sink. At first the Missouri was only I able to take aboard twenty of I the Danmark’s passengers, but after | having thrown over a portion of her I cargo she found accommodations for all the crew and passengers of the Danmark. The Missouri then proceeded to the Azores and left there the first and second officers and 320 passengers. She then continued her journey to Philadelphia, Pa., with 340 passengers and the remain- j der of the crew, where she arrived safely. ; The Captain and three engineers of the I Danmark left the Azores the 14th for I London. The Danmark was about 800 j miles from Newfoundland when the ac- ' cident occurred. IL G. Dun A Co.’s review of trade for . last week is ns follows: Most of tho indications usually considered of value point to a genuine improvement in business, and rather in volume of transactions than in profits. Crop prospects brighten steadily. Lower prices result in largely inercasi d export's. Money is abundant, the Treasury is jxiurtug Out freely, and there are no signs of pressure from abroad. Railroad earnings are increasing, and payments through banks, yet failures in some important branches of trade are numerous. Col. leci ions are generally slower t han usual; the iron and leather interest s are embarrassed bypioduction largely exceeding tho present demand. At Kansas City wet weather affected trade and collections, and at Pittsburg tho slow movement and weakness in prices of iron and steel products, glass and coal affect business generally, but at Cleveland more inquiry for iron ore is reported and it better feeling is manifest. The wool market is waiting, tho old supply is nearly exhausted, and new wool being not, as yet. available in any quantity, prices are mostly nominal, but average for 16-1 grades and qualities nearly > 7 c lower. The overproduction of leather does not appear to be caused

bv any sudden shrinkage in the demand for finished products, since the shipments of boots and shoes are larger than in any previous year. But Ilie depression in price, which lias now continued since 1880, and reached 33 per cent., is unprecedented us todmation. and the excess of production undoubtedly begins to embarrass many makers. The cotton manufacture is progressing fairly, with a consumption a litUo larger than in any previous year. Wheat is but a shade lower uuil corn a little higher than a ! week ago. The rapid approach of another harj vest, with an unsold surplus in excess of nil I probable demands, which seems likely to l>e not ' | far from 40,000;000 bushels July 1. Is a sufficient cause of depression in wheat. The general aver. j age of prices is a shade lower than a week ago. ! Tlte business failures number 246, as uguinst 239 1 the previous week.

Poor People’s Chance i. Some years ago a city missionary was j crossing one of the parks in New York on the Sabbath day and said to a lad, "What are you doing hero,breaking the Lord’s day ? You ought to be at church amt worshiping 3od instead of breaking tho Sabbath in this । way.” The poor lad in his rags looked up i at the city missionary and said: “Oh, sir, ' it's v try easy for you to talk that way, but । God knows that we poor chaps ain't got no ] chance.'' The sentiment seems to bo growing that in the United States the time has arrived when “the poor chaps don’t have no chance.” 'I here ts some truth in it. Tho poor are not shut out from making a livelihood, but the gulf between riches and poverty contin- ' ually grows more difficult to cross.’ As the country becomes densely populated keen business competition decreases the chances for accumulating wealth by ordinary business methods. But iho same conditions vastly improve the chances for great success to those who can strike out in new paths, can furnish something to the world that others cannot. True merit,, in commodity or ability, will win easily and with grand results in this country, if the masses can be induced to recognize it. This recognition can only bo accomplished by what are sometimes sneeringly alluded to as advertising methods. What a marvelous success has attended the thorough introduction to the world of the merits of that wonderful remedy for kidney disease—Warner’s Sale Cure. Hon. 11. H. Warner first came to know of its curative i power by being restored to health from j what flic doctors pronounced a fatal kidney j trouble. Ho concluded the world ought to know of it and in the ten years since he bei gan its manidaoturo he has spent millions । of dollars in advertising tile Safe Cure. His methods have been ingenious—someI times, perhaps, open to criticism, but they had a purpose, which has been accomplished. But mark! ho never would have secured a four-fold return of the vast sums thus expended if the real merit of the remedy had not been fully proven to the millions of people reached by his advertisements. Ten years of increasing success of Warner’s Safe Cure is due, first, to intelligent and pleasing advertising, by which the people were made acquainted with the remedy. Second, to the true worth of the remedy, proved by actual experience, showing it to bo only specific lor kidney disease, and all diseases growing out of kidney derangements, Mr. Warner has something tho people i want, tells them so, then proves it. to their I satisfaction—success follows as a matter of | course. An Old Thiel' at the Hive. The entrances to the hive are very carefully guarded by sentinels, and every bee on arriving at the door is challenged by them with their attenme. If he can give the countersign he j is admitted to the sanctuary, but if he i can not he is in danger, for bees are I very nervous insects, and draw stings 'on the slighte it piovocntion. The ap- ' plicant must be a thief, and old thieves - are defected by ex perienci d sentinels, ; but the form of challenging must be j gone through, first. The old thief bee I is fat and sleek ami shining and very suave. If caught by sentinels lie will at once try to make a deal ami offer flic policemen some sugar, and while they are eating it he either slips in and fills up at the cells or lie retreats and tries another hive. If the sentinels are incorruptible tin* thief humps himself, and draws his horny shields tight around him, so that the stings of the policeman may not penetrate, and runs. A young thief stands up to fight and gets clubbed. He learns by experience.
