H.J. Cook, formerly of Allegheny City, Pa., nas been arrested in London, Ont, for robbing the Porterville Savings Bank,4n Mercer county, Pa,, of $2,0C0, two weeks ago. Cook wag formerly em ployed in the building in which was located the bank. He was an inveterate smoker, and had a habit of chewing the end of his cigar. The morning after the robbery a stump of a cigar was found on the floor of the bank, audit gave evidence of having been in Cook's mouth from the peculiarity mentioned. He was arrested, Thursday, and, the telegram states, made a confession implicating a number of others. The resolution passed by the board of directors of the Chicago Board ot Trade, that the public quotation service be withdrawn at the jeloss of this month, is the subject of much comment, and there is a marked divergence of opinion as to whether ihe result will be bene fieial to the board. The so-called "bucket shop" firms claims to have the
right to receive the quotations which have been sustained by a permanent injunction granted by the Supreme Court to one of their number. They threaten legal proceedings against the Board of Trade if deprived of its quotations, and the prospects seem good for a tremendous legal fight. ... There died at Weston, W. Va., a man whose case has been a puzzle to the local medical authorities. His name wa John By an, and about six years ago his pbyriciaBB told him that he was suffering from locomotor ataxia. He staggered in his walk at first, and finally his fingers and toes began to mortify. Joint by joint they fell off until only the bare stumps of bis limbs were left. The disease did not stop here, but his whole body seemed to hi subject to the decay ing process. Large pieces of his flesh loosened and fell from him without pain. His nerves were dead and. his body was practically senseless. His six yearns living death is ended. Mr. Ryan was a well known man, and universally esteemed. A diepatch from Yankton Indian agency says that the Sioux Indians at that place are preparing to negotiate with the Government for the sale of about seven townships of the north part of their reservation. Engineers are now at work surveying the agency, and the Indians are selecting their land in severalty. The reason assigned for selling this land is that their treaty with the-United States only allowed $1 5,000 per annum, and the present treaty will soon expire. The tract embraces some of the finest land in South Dakota, and a rush of settlers is expected to follow its opening homesteaders, which will probably be within thirty days. These lands will furnish homes for 1,000 families, allowing each 160 acres. SATURDAY. Fresh stories of Ireland's destitution are sent out. Captain General 'Salamanca, of Cuba,

two years ago. More than a xaontn ago the water became bo impregnated with turpentine that it could not be used for drinking purposes. A few days ago a bucket of colored turpentine was hauled
out. An investigation was made, anaei
fourteen barrels were drawn off. In a few hours the spirits had risen to some height. A barrel of it reached Savannah Friday morning, and experts pronounce it the pure article. It is not believed that the well has been Baited, and the mystery is so far inexplicable. General Boulanger is credited with preparing a new surprise for the woild. According to good authority, lie now intends, since the Senate is likely to abandon his prosecution, to return to Pans. The report says that his followers have been communicated with, and the most elaborate' preparations are making for his triumphant return to the French capital. The General is disgusted at his treatment in London, and has declared to a friend that he would rather trust to the' tender mercies of his own nation, and the defense of his friends, than to longer tresspass on the cool courtesy of the English, with whom he has gained neither fame nor
position. Tne tienerai complains especially of his treatment by the news papers, many of which have derided him. It is owing, no doubt, for the most part to the papers that Boulanger has been practically boycotted in England. He commenced his London career more like a showman than a statesman, and has selected as his companions a certain class of public men who are not usually accepted its the aides- de- camp of society. MONDAY. Monday 3,761 emigrants were landed at Castle Garden. Seventeen-year locusts have made their appearance in Highland county, Ohio.

Steve Brodie, the bridge jumper,

Texas, she dropped a lighted lamp
and was immediately enveloped in
flames She ran from the kitchen
through a bed room in which her two
little boys, aged three and four years,
were sleeping, out into the yard where her husband was. The latter attempted
to extinguish the flames, but did not
succeed until his wife was fatally
burned. He then discovered that the
house was on fire, and it and the two
children were consumed. Mr. Palmer
was also very badly burned.

Hopkins was of 1,470 tons burdea, and
243 feet in length. The vessel, which
is insured in its own company, & valued
at $250,000. The loss -on the cargo of
turpentine, rosin, lumber and cotton is
$30,000 or more. The fire originated by
the explosion of a barrel of turpentine
in ine noia.
The Bev. Peter S. Van Etten was
arrested at Toledo, on the charge of
swindling Mrs Julia. Holmes, a widow
residinst at Younestown, O., out of
$4,000. Van Etten came there last July, representing that he was a Methodist minister, and, by his pleasing address,
secured board with Mrs. Holmes. The latter was having trouble with a tenant,
and, at the suggestion of Van Etten,
deeded him tne property, valued at
$5,000, he claiming he would oust the
parties and give back her property. Van Etten no sooner secured the deed than he mortgaged the property for
$4,000 and skipped.
THE N ATIONAL CAPITAL,
Mrs. Harrison's mail contains, every day, appealu from office seekers to use her influence with her husband in favor of the writers. Some of the correspondents request. Mrs. Harrison to remind the President that their applications remain unanswered; they have heard nothing aboufc them and fear the President h:js inadvertently neglected to act upon them. They beg Mrs. Harrison to look around the office for the letters find petitions, and put tkem where General Harrison will be sure to see them. Some of the letters are from women. One of them recently wrote that she was a widow with three 4gir! children." fler husband was killed in the war fighting on the Southern side; and there was an unconscious pathos in the details of a poor widow's strugple to maintain and bring up in the "fear of the Lord" those three girl children. Sue wanted a "post ouice paying only $300 a year," and yet "it would be a God-send tome." One man wrote recently eight big letter pages to Mrs. Harrison, because he feared that three epistles of the same length addressed to "your respected husband had iailed to meet his eye." The letter breathed the most devoted piety, truest Republicanism, ana the most pronounced prohibition sentiments, and ended up with a request for an office of some kind that would make life a little easier for a man with only one leg. A new schedule for appointment has just been arranged, which will undoubtedly be more satisfactory to the officeseeking masse, as it gives one more day in the week to them. Appointments for the departments will be agreed upon or made as follows: Mondays, Interior Departments: Tuesdays, Postoffice; Wednesdays, Treasury. There are to be few appointments made foi the other fiive departments, and they have not been put on the schedule, and for the filling of emergencies this schedule will not, of course, be deviated from. In sorae of the departments complaints are heard that the failure to make changes in the principle positions is having the effect of clogging business, as the officers who daily expect to be relieved take no interest in the business, and in many instances refuse to take acticn. Applications for pensions are beginning; to come at the Pension Office from the widows and dependent relatives o officers and men who lost their lives in the recent naval disaster at Samoa. The widow of Captain Schoonmaker, of the Vandalia, filed her claim a few days ago, and it has been submitted to the proper division for allowance. Her pension will amount to $30 per month. Thursday, a colored woman, whose son was employed on one of the lost vessels, appeared at the Pension Office and filed bsr claim for a pension. She will be a 11 owed $ 1 2 per month. Henry W. Ilogers, a middle aged man, came here on the 4th of March for a consulate. He was locked up Saturday in the station house as a vagrant. He had nearly $20 in coppers and five-cent pieces in his cloth 63, the result ef niB solicitations on the street. He wfs taken before Judge Miller in the police court, one day last week; and gave his nersonal bonds to eet out of town. But
he was sure of setting his position in a
few day more, and so he stayed.
The President, Thursday, made the
following nominations: Solomon Hirsch, of Oregon. Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary to Turkey. Clark E. Carr, of Illinois, Minister Resi
dent and Consul General to Denmark.
H. M. Sevarance, of California, Consul
General at Honolulu. Thomas H. Sher
man, of Dietrict of Columbia, to be Con
sul at Liverpool.
It is rumored that Attorney General Miller will be appointed to the supreme court bench Ho fill the yaoancy caused
bv the death of Justice Matthews that
Secretary of the Navy Tracy will succeed Miller in the Department of Justice and that First Assistant Postmaster General Clarkeon will, be made Secretary of the Navy., The land office has made a ruling to the effect that if a homesteader has made improvements on his claim, and has lived on the land himself the prescribed length of time, he has a right to a patent from the government, even if his family did not live with him during the necessaiy five years of occupation. Senator Gorman says that he considers it only proper that the chairmanship of the Democratic National Committee should go to Mr. Calvin S. Brice, and he will on no account allow his name to be suggested in connection with the office. Charles D. Preston, once a delegate in
Congress from Oregon, was arrested in
Washington in the act of using the franks of Senator Stewart, of Nevada,
and Delegate Smith, of Arizona, on his
own private mail.
Gen. Felix Agnus, proprietor of the
Baltimore American, is talked of in con nection with the Russian mission.
John Jarrett, of Pennsylvania, has been appointed Consul of the United
States at Birmingham.

journed, Thursday, after several days1
work. The text book law was not

connected with it can be done further
prerae Court and settled as soon as possible. Assessor Thomas Quill and Deputy Assessor Tyler, of this township, were indicted by the Grand Jury, Thursday, for obtaining money under false pretenses. It is charged that they kepi several ''dummies" on the pay roll, the salaries of whom they divided amony themselves. The State Treasurer is preparing to advertise for bids for the school fund loan authorized by the Fify-sixtb General Assembly. There is no question of the constitutionality of this act. The loan is so big that it throws the troublesome one which the German Savings Bank, of New York, has been dallying with into the shade. The advertisement will call for bids for a loan, all to be taken at once, of $3,905,000. Bids will be opened July 1. The Supreme Court, Saturday, decided the case of Alvin P. Hovey, Governor vs. the State ex rel John W. Riley. The case is the one in which Eiley, elected a trustee of the Blind Institute bv the Legislature, brought suit in the Marion county Court to compel the Governor to issue him a commission. Judge Howland of the Circuit Court decided in favor of the plaintiff and the Governor appealed to the Supreme Court. The tribunal affirmed the de
cision of the lower court. The ppinioa was written by Chief Justice Elliott, and is concurred in by J udges Mitchell and Olds but not by Judges Coffey and Berkshire. Postmaster Tom Ochiltree, of Rushville, attorney for two Sbelby county farmers charged with counterfeiting, made application Monday to be admitted to practice in the Federal court. Ochiltree was foreman of the Federal Grand Jury in 1S87 that refused to indict the tally-sheet forgers in the United States Courts and spoke disparagingly of Judge Woods. He said to the deputy that if his clients were Democrats they could not get justice before the Judge, as he considered him unfair. The remarks in some way reached the ear of Judge Woods, and when Ochiltree asked to be allowed to appear in the case, the Judge reminded him of his remarks to the deputy marshal. The officer was present to testify that the disparaging statement was made, but Mr. Ochiltree did not deny it. Judge .Woods then informed Mr. Ochiltree that if ne wanted to practice in that court, he must pass examination in the regular way. He refused to do this, and consequently was not admitted. Auditor of State Carr. left the city early Sunday morning for New York where he arrived Monday morning. He had been intrusted with the care of the bonds by State Treasurer Lemcke, and these were purchased during the day by the German savings bank according to its bid and credit given Capt. Lemcke. The notice that the business had been satisfactorily settled was received late in the afternoon by telegram to the State treasurer. However, a letter of credit is required before the money can be drawn, and the anxious seekers of the pap will have to await Auditor Carr's return be fore any moneys will be paid out. The amount whicb the State will receive is $706,(X'0 which the bonds call forrwitir U,340 prem-
mm ana accrued interest on me
above moneys since April 1. When asked as to the disposal of the money
Treasurer Lemcke said it would soon be gone, as there are two oir three hiindreti
claims to be satisfied. Among the most urgent of the claimente are the State
House contractors, the contractors of
the Washington street pavement, the
State university trustees, the trustees of the soldiers' and Eailors' orphans' home at Fort Wayne and Knightstown and the reform school trustees at Plain-field.

The great central purpose of the law is cheapness of books. A secondary one is unifoimity of books, but this was
not much considered by the JeciBlature.
Since the passage of tbc law it is hcing widely discussed, and a great varietv of
opinions are expressed. . The law will not go into eflect until all the laws are
printed and tho Governor ipfus his
proclamation, which will be about June
1. After the law takes effect the State
Board of Education has to meet within
thirty days and advertise for bids, and then these advertisements have to run 21 days. Alter the bids are in, the
ijreat work for the State Board begins. To examine and compare and make a
wise selection involves a vast deal of
tabor and imposes a great responsibility
ana 01 course cannot be done in haste. Besides, the members of the State Board
are all persons holding other responsible
poEiuons mat cannot be neglected, and their State Board duties muet be done
piece-meal as time can be secured.
Alter the contract is awarded the publisher must have time to make readv
and deliver his books. If all parties
concerned consume all the time that the law allows it will take about ten
months to make the books reach the
children; and if all parties shall make all the baste possible, or probable, it seems absolutely impossible for the books to be ready by the opening of
next school year. The probable time at which the books can be. ready for use is not far from the middle of next school
year, inasmucn as it would be a great
wrong to the children to allow them to purchase books at the beflrinnine of
the school vear and then throw
them aside and buy others without
completing them, the strong probabil
ity is that the btate Board will recom-, mend that the new books bo into use at
the opening of the school year, beeinnine
September. 1890, or one year from next
September.
The advantages of the law are the two named above, cheapness and uniformity. The disadvantages are: 1. The value of the school, books
now m the lianas 01 toe cniidren ib estimated to be nearly $1,030,000.
rbese become comparatively worthless,
except in so far as they mav be le
adopted.
2. The very low prices fixed render
it probable that the best bookB will not
be offered, and thus Quality will be
sacrificed to price.
3. The law requires a bond of $50,000 that the bidder will enter into contract n accordancewith his bid, but it . doea rmt r quire any bond that he will faithfully ( orry out his contract when entered into. 4. As the contract is made by the State Board and the books are shipped direct , to ninety-two county superintendents, there ia ample room and great tem pt at ion for the t contractor to 1 t the quantity of material used degenerate far below the standard agreed upon. 5.. The law 'makes the trustee the custodian, of the books. Hence, if a
child wants a book even a 5 ct copy book- he must make atrip to the trustee's booK stoie, which may be in an extreme part of the township. The trustee may arrapge to have books at the school houstra and make the teachers his clerks at the opening of school, but can hardly afford to leave them there, as he is persona ly responsible for their safe Keeping. ... 6. The adoption of new text books will involve new courses of study, new manuals, new instructions to teachers, e!cf all of which means time and expense. .... 7. While uniformity is secured, there U ot the privilege of selecting nooks adaptea to different local ties-the city and the country mutit ue the same. 8. The cost of distributing these books and setting them into the hands of the cbiFdien is likely to be much greater than the authors of the law anticipated. As the county superintendent.is made pei tonally responsible for all books, he wiU'bave to ie eive a l books and verify all bills, and this means that he mut have a fctorage room. His correspondence will be greatly increased with publieher?, trustees and teachers, and his book keeping duties will be quite heavy. (And all this in the face of the fact that in many counties the superintendent has to furnish his own office, f he has any, and pay all his own posta :e and stationary bills; and in the face of the other fact that the late legislature killed a bill which proposed to provide an office far the superintendent.) In addition to the largely increased duties of the county superintendent, the trustees must add many days' service to what is now required of them, in order to discharge well all the' increased duties imposed by thiB law. : When the loss of old books is taken into consideration, and the largely increased pay of ninetytwo superintendents and over a thousand township trustees is added, there is serious doubt aa to whether there is really much saving to the people in the actual cost of books, even at the prices named. , . 9. In the larger cities and towns, trustees, in order to accommodate the children with books, will have to open regular book stores, unless each school house is made . a store, house, and each teacher s bookseller; and each township trustee must keep a Etock of books and
provide for their sale. 10. There is a difference of opinion as to whether the law is compulsory as to the use of , the books selected. One view is that the law is mandatory, and that the contractor can compel " the school offi cera to use the adopted books. The other is that, the purpose of the law is to aupply cheap books for the benefit of the people, and not for the benefit of the publishers,and that if other books more desirable can be had, the school authorities are at liberty to take them. It is argued that there is no penalty affixed for not using the books, and that if the trustees of a count v should retuse carry out this law, they could not be compelled to do .. 11. Section ten, of the law. is simply nonsense as it stauds. It requires the county superintendent to bring suit on his own bond in case he fails to do his dutv in accordance with the law. Whether the law will prove satisfactory or not must, be left to the future. The great fear is that the best books will not be offV red at the low prices fixed. If satisfactory books can be secured, doubtless, after the firat year or two, there will be some savina on the
! cost of books, but tne question arises, ' has the State a right to interfere in any kind of trade for t he sake of saving the people a little money? Xf so, why not
