The sunshine of yesterday, inspirited citizens decidedly, although underfoot wm cold, snowy and frozen. Seasonable weather has been locked tor so long, and yet so long deterred, that wheu the least «estate ot it arrived the boon was very gratafully received. 1 he Intelligencer wants a uiu/./.le until it learns to be more circumspect in speaking .uxiut the ci. iz ens ot Wheeling. From all reports the lobby in t îe C ry Bui ding on Tuesday night, was a representative body of the people. I>emocrats and Republicans alike were present and were called there by the interest they felt in the situation. Thk army dudes loafing around Wash ington are very uneasy. Secretary of War Exduott proposes to find something for them to do with their regiments on the Iron tier or wh«ever stationed. A-my offi cer« have been strutting around Washing ton so long that they have become essential to the beauty and ornamentatioa of Wash ington society. It is possible to say tco much in the praise of a man's excellence, but that quali ty has been so rare in public men of late that the people are ready to pour forth their adulations of the man who pleis?3 ihom, without stint This from the Ne» York Herald is not overdrawn : "Compared with the rumpus and excite ment over the nominations of Hayes and Oan»r«l the present aitmttMB <|uite heavenly, and a Republican Senator said to-day: "I wonder why our Presidents managed to kick up such a bobberv and row with their nominations, while this Demo cratic President, although his party has been out of power for twenty-four years, gets along smoothly?" Thk life of a slugger during the training period is not devoid of hard work. Sclli van is preparing to paralyze M* Cakkkrt, another noted slugger, and in order to in sure succ.s he kills time under the supervis ion of an expert trainer in this style: Yes terday morning Sii.uvax waited around the Fairmount reservoir a number of times and in the afternoon trotted out almost to Conahohoeken.

Tin more one hears of the new Minister to Rngland the better one likes him. A gen'Uman sneaking of him, says: *'I have heard and read several of his more formal orations and addre&ses. which were deliv ered without notes, and they are all master pieces. His oration on Chief Justice Mar sham., delivered at Saratoga in 187!», was perhapi« the most admirable and served to spread his reputation throughout the bar of the whole country. As an afterdianer speaker he will fully keep up with the repu tation of James Kiss eu. Lowell in that re sect. Tmk nicessity ot the Minister to EugLnd being well equipped ia legai lore, and espe cially international law. it well known. America's commercial relations with Great Britain are go extensive and so varied that tiiia point is more important than all others combined. Take for example an instance in which the rights of an American citizen upon British toil, who may be arrest ed as a suspect, are in question. The United State« wants a representa tive at the Court of St. James who can determine promptly the moment Mr. Bull goes beyond his tether, and call him to ac count Such a man is Mr. Puki.is. His legal attainments are ot the highest stand ard, while his qualities in every other partic ular maks him pre-eminently fitted for the place. I» Secretary Lamar will begin at once to kick all the cattle king* out of the Indian Territory he will commend himself very highly to all people who believe in respect ing contracts. This territory was reserved to the Indians but through influence, and a lax regard for the rights of others on the part of former State otficers, these eattle king« have squatted on the public lands, fenced them in, and raised their thousands of steck without a dollar's expense, except for herding, and shipped them to Eastern markets to compete with stockmen who pay big for every hoof of stock they raise. Tbe Oklahoma Boomers were justly indigsont at being compelled to forego their trip into the Indian country by the Presi dent's proclamation. The saw these big ranchmen taking possession and doing as they pleased with not one to say nay. Sec retary Lamar has a big job. but be it big or little, .'et the*? public plunderers feel the toe of tte honcct Democratic foot that the coun try believes tbe President and his subordi i ate« bave put on to stay. When it is f*ir- j « It determined by the govern meut whatdis poomon »hall be made of the Indian frontier then all band« can hare a chance at it, pick op heir stake* and incontiaently sqaat wheie they please, bot antil tbea the* cat tle men should be m vie to respect the rights ot others equally with the humbleet boomer in ;be land ONE WAY. The Chief of Police'« attention is called to the fallowing method ot gobbling up the boy* at St. Louis. To be sure it has its d'ffi'uliice, bat when the plan is successful the recompense it big : The detective# raided a poker room at No. 113 North Ki^bth street yesterday uttenwn and arrested Jocob Ackerman, tienry Mfyere, Wm, (Î. Bridgeman, William Rav*s Jceob Be'g John Reed and Jaw-k [ Nolan. While the men were playing th? <Vertiv»»g watched through a keyhole ahich they were impolice enough to leave • prn Ot e of them was about to bet eight ciips on his hand when the officers stepped in and scooped in the entire outfit. When the play»rs arrived at the Four Courts they wifo greatly incensed to learn that they would be p!act-d in the hold over, and that under no consideration could they expect to obtain their release on bail.—Republican. II this feat were performed half a score of tim« s within six months or a year, what • ould result '.herefrom? The gamblers are nrrested in the act, which means, of course their conviction and pnnisnment. Under he law, as it stands, the tools, devices, etc , could be destroyed on si*ht if conviction had preceded the capture ot kit and tools. Again, they are no; let out on bail, but are held ui til tri<d. This prevents a false name being put en the record. Tae I culprit is sure of being known iu a city the size of Wheeling to all the habitues of the cocrt, so his true name £0*?s on tha docket What will next follow depends upon the or dinary vigilatce of the county attorney. IIa goes to the docket, memorandums the name, I and when the grand jury sits he I it he gambler) is promptly indicted ar.d is made amenable to the State law which makes gambling a penitentiary cfl'ense. But that is not all. The laudlord I of the premises is hauled up and notified of the purposes his premises are put to, and if he does not take prompt steps to dislodge bis tenant, the law handles him without glove«. To nK sure it requires a well concieved and well executed plan st' operations to make this methcd 8ucces3f.il, but it has been done before as illustrated above. It can be done again if the will, the courage and ability, are linked together in the city s I chief. HKAYIKST ISA Ii V IM THE WORLD. Wvlghiug 8iî Pound* at 13 Montli^-KijKer Than It* Mother. Ctt'-mnali Tiu"*-S/>ir. N"tw Yukic, March 21.—Samuel Reynolds Tompkins, who, his parents confidently be lieve, is the biggest baby boy in the I nited States, was thirteen months old on the 3d of March, and weighs eighty-three pounds and a few ounccs over. When he was born he didn't weigh five pounds. At the age of three months hi« weight had doubled. Three more, quadrupled, and when the in fant was ten months old he weighed sev enty-two pounds, or almost as much as hi* ! mother. Charlotte Frazer was the mother's name before she married Henry Tompkins" in 1875. She was born in 1S.">6 at Sligo, Ire land, and is a cheery, blue eyed little woman, about live feet high, and weighing seventy sevfn pounds. Sammy's fsither was born aï Armonk, Westchester county, the same I year as his wife. He is over six feet high. 1 tind weighs lt>5 pounds. Sammy Reynolds is their first and ouly child. Sammy is a healthy child, und his fat is ! sohaly laid on in big rolis aud chunks. I The only time he was ever sick in his lite was when he had a littie touch of cholera infantum, at the age of two months. He has an enormous appetite and a strong di gtbtion. lie is not yet weaned, but, never ! thtless, be manages to rat every day at noon a little rare and juicy steak and one potato. He does not like cakes or candies, and hif natural appetite craves just what j the doctors pay everybody should live on Sammy held a reception yesterday. Call ers climbed up the hill to the little house all day, and Mrs. Tompkins was kept busy ex plaining about her son. His eyes are blue and his hair long and liaxen. There are 1 twenty teeth in hi3 mouth, all of them dou ble but the two top front teeth. Notwith standing his fat Sammy is a shapely child and is qnite good looking, as the fat is evi ! dtntly distributed. His hands and feet are Hs small as those of any baby of his age. I I>rs. Hronson. Hickey, Cummings and any I number of others have been investigating ; him, and they say he is a healthy child. I 1 hey advise that no restraint be put upon ; him! but he he allowed to grow naturally, i I : is waist and chest are already a yard aroucd A CJ hat would fit his head. The cir cumference of his leg is 16J inches above the knee and 11 inches below, bigger than his father's. His skin is soft and clear. As he sat on the llocr beside his crib, yesterday, he i atl three tfatirons aud a heavy cane for tc^s to play with. The irons weighed be tw'een five and seven pound?, and musc ilar Sammy tossed them around as aa ordinary baby would p'ay with wooden blocks. He is proud of his sirength and appreciates it «hen an voue mentions it in his hearing I His development has been steady, although j it started all of a sudden when he was three ' I months old. Sammy is pugnacious. Mamie Moore, the little daughter of a neighbor, dropped in on Thursday afternoon to play with Sam | my. They didn't get along very well and j Sammy hit Mamie in her eye and black er ed it. He had had a slight difference with his mother and blackened her eye the other day to. When he goes to hit he I clinches his teeth and compresses his lips. "Yon son is the coming rival of John L. : Sullivan," said • visitor to Mrs. Tompkins Sammy seemed to understand or it may have been a coincidence; he said "yes." ' My husband is a Methodist and I a j Catholic," said Mrs. Thompkins. "I will • never exhibit my son or nse him to make money. He is self willed at times, and ' hauled off and hit me the other day; but 1 on the whole he is a good boy though he is a terror to other children, and they are afraid of him. 1'eople have asked me if I wouldn't let them have my son, bat I won't, not even if Bornum himself was to come for him.
