An Undertaker T\"lio Owns a Cemetery
Rons It f« Gash.
radford, Pa., Feb. 15.—The Oak Ceme
tery association was formed in this city a
few years ago, and several acres of ground
for a cemetery suitable to the needs of the
city were purchased and laid out as a bury
ground. The cemetery is the Greenwood of
this city and vicinity. Philip Webster, a
prosperous undertaker of Bradford, was a
large subscriber to the stock of the associa
tion, and has gradually purchased the stoek
of the others until he is now virtually the
owner of all the unpurchased cemetery lots.
A few days ago Mrs. Lewis Dunning, of
Tarpor. died. Her husband came to Brad
ford to make arrangements for her burial'
He purchased a coffin at Morris & Lane's
establishment. He then went to the office of
the Oak Hill cemetery to purchase a burial
lot. The clerk in charge asked him if he
had bought his coffin. Dunging replied that
he had.
"Where r" astel the clerk.
"At Morris & Lane's,'" said Dunning.
"Then, I can't sell you a lot in the
cemetery,'' replied the clerk. "No person
can obtain a lot at Oak Hill unless he pur
chases the coffin at Webster's shop anl
engages his services at the funeral. The:5e
are Mr. Webster's orders.''
Dunning inquired at Webster's and found
the clerk's statement to be correct He
countermanded his order at Morris & Lane's
and got his coffin at Webster's.

Of the postmaster general to the resolution
calling for information as to whether the
eight-hour Igw is applicable to
lettor-enrrievs, was lalfl "before the
house Saturday and referred. In his
answer the postmaster general says
that there is no department regulation pre
scribing the number of hours of labor of let
tor-carriers, and that the eight-hour law has
not been deemed applicable to letter-carriers,
because they are not regarded as laborers,
workmen or mechanics." The opinion that
the law was noL applicable was, the post
master general Is informed, promulgated
from the department before his incumbency,
and no change has been directed since.

Out Her Own Throat.
St. "Levis, Mo., Feb. 15.—Four months
ago J. Rhey Boyd, son of Congressman
Linn Boyd, eloped from Paducah with Lucy
Matson Grimes, his cousin, and the couple
were tnvrried at 1106 Chouteau avenue.
Boyd was a young lawyer without practice.
Poverty drove him to drink. Last Monday
he disappeared an 1 later wrote to his wife
advising her to go home. The young ilHfe
took morphine and laudanum without effect
and wrote the story of her distress to a
local paper. Then she ended her miserable
life by cutting her throat with a razor.
The husband's whereabouts are unknown.
the propriety of Increasing the present fore*

"While it was generally conceded that the
additional force was necesnary the resolu
tion, on motion of Cox of North Carolina,
was recommitted, with instructions to the
committee on accountsjto ascertain and re
port what reduction may be made in num
ber and compensation of officers and em
ployes of the house without diminishing the
efficiency of the force.
Bragg, from military affairs, report ed the
bill providing the location of a branch sol
diers' home west of the Rocky mountains.
The house then took final action on the bill
authorizing national banks to increase their
capital stock and change their location and
names by tabbing the motion to reconsider
the vote by which the bill was passed on
Thursday.
The house then went into committee of
the whole on Fitz John Porter. Swinburne
of New York was entitled to tho floor, but
being in ill-health his speech was read by
the clerk. He held that it was but justice
to restore Fitz John Porter to his full posi
tion and honor that army jealousy had
blackened the record of Gen. Porter as it had
tarnished that of Gen. McClellan whom his
tory, however, would place alongsideihe other
departed military chieftain, Gen. Grant
In conclusion Swinburne said: '-The coun
try owes Gen. Porter gratitude rather than
punishmentr
Houck of Tennessee said that he would
vote against the pending bill because he be
lieved it absolutely destructive of the very
fabric of the government itself.
A SENSATIONTN COURT.
Phillips Calls a Lawyer a Liar and Is
Fined for Contompt.
Toledo, Ohio Feb. 15.—There was a lively
time at the police court Friday night during
the Rifle-Phillips' trial. The room was
packeito overflowing and the arguments of
both sides were attentively listened to.
Hueston, counsel for defense, arralgyd Mr.
Phillips in a fearful way. He pictured the
woman as one abused beyond description,
and that, too, by an old wretch who was
guilty of solitary vice.
You're a liar!" shouted Phillips
to the attorney.
"Mr. Phillips is fined $10 for contempt,"
said the court
"I'll be if I pay it," said Phillips.
"Place Mr. Phillips under arrest," re
sponded the court.
At this Mr. Phillips, cooled off considera
bly and paid his fine.
When the arguments were concluded.
Judge Kennedy reviewed the case carefully
He said in substance that there was no evi
deuce to show adultery that while the wit
nesses had Bworn that Rich and Mrs. Phil
lips were in one room, with only one bed,
there was no evidence that the bed had been
disturbed, and that the court dismissed the
case. When this decision was announced
the court room broke out in violent ap
plause, which was quite difficult to quiet
Mrs. Phillips broke down when the decision
was rendered, and seemed to feel the embar
rassing situation in which she was placed.
Phillips feels crestfallen. He looks like a
mau who only had one friend, and that
friend had just died.
A DASTARDLY OUTRAQC.
A Young Lady Hung to Tree and
Weights Tied to Her Feet.
Mattooic,
111%, Feb. 15.—At 10 o'clock
Friday night, at Windsor, Ills., Miss
Georgia Aldridge, the daughter of a promi
nent physician, being alone at home, stepped
to the door of her residence to look for the
return of her parent-, when she was seized
from behind, choked insensible, dragged to
a tree in the yard and strung up with a rops
round her neck, her hands and feet being
tied and weights tied to her feet. A moment
later Miss Aldridge's brother, returning
home, found her thus and cut her down.
Life not yet being extinct, she recovered
consciousness, but is so prostrated that she
can give no better account of the affair than
hero presented. A note was afterwards
found near the spot where the young lady
was hanging, saying that the act was done
to "get even" with the lady's father. Thfero
ls"tio clew to the j»erpetrators of the deed.
The Ohio Investigating Committee*
Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 15.—The legttfek*
tive committee investigating the charges of
bribery in tho election of Senator Payne
two years ago, has been examining wit
nesses every day for weeks, and ha3 a
mountain of circumstantial evidence, in all
of which the direct connection was missing.
Friday ex-Representative Ignatius H.
Kahle, who was also a member of the last
legislature^ testified that Orlando B. Ramey,
of Ottawa, Putnam county, who was state
senator in the last legislature, offered him a
large consideration in case he would vote for
Payne. The Payne men here claim that
Ramey had no authority to do anything for
them. The event of tho day was in calling
Col. H. K. Donavin to the stand. He has
been here over a week as the adviser of the
committee, and it was thought best not to
call him for a weak yet but it was found
that witnesses were going back on their for
mer utterancos and that he should appear
now. Donavin's testimony contained Mth

Dinners in the Murray Drawings
ltoom.
Murray was famous for his dinner
parties, at which, moreover, however
distinguished the gu«sts, the conver
sation of the host contriUuted not in
considerably to the feast of reason and
the flow of soul. After an afternoon
inspection of "two or three lions of the
Quarterly itcviciv in Murray's den"—
George Ticknor iu rather commercial
language generally spoke of the draw
ing-room in A!bemarlu street as "Mur
ray's literary exchange"—Washington
Irving proceeds to give a report in his
diary of "a very pleasant dinner at
Murray's" when lie had "a long tete
a-tete with old Disraeli," an unfailing
guest of the son of his lirst publisher.
"Murray, very merry and loquacious,"
showed Irving tho. MS. of the fourth
canto of "Childe Harold." tho arrival
of which no doubt contributed to his
elevation of spirits. "Dined with
Murray," Ticknor records in his jour
nal, "and had a genuine bookseller's
dinner, such as Lintot used to give
Hope and Gay and Swift, Dilly to
Johnson and Goldsmith." Gilford,
Campbell, and tho inevitable Isaac Dis
raeli were the other guests, and the
conversation was so entertaining that
the American visitor was full of re
gret when the stroke of midnight broke
up the party, "in accordance with En
glish habits." To the testimonies of
these two American gentlemen may bo
added those of a country-woman and
countrymau of Murray's, both of them
distinguished people. ".No house in
London,'' writes Mrs. Somerville,
"was more hospitable and agreeable
than that of the late John Murray in
Albemarle street," and she had seen
what was best in the intellectual society
of tho London of her time. "His din
ner parties were brilliant with all the
poets aud literary characters of the
day, aud Mr. Murray himseif was gen
tleman-iike, lull of information, and
kept up the conversation with spirit."
Mrs. Somerville adds, respecting the
great work which made her famous,
"He generously published the Mecnau
ism of the Heavens at his own risk,
which, from its analytical character,
could only bo read by mathemati
cians." Then, again, the following
still more striking verdict on the im
pression made by Murray's conversa
tional powers is furnished by Lady
Bell as that pronounced by her hus
band, Sir Charles, the distinguished
surgeon^ author of the Bridgewater
Treatise on The Hand, "On Friday we
dined at John Murray's, Albemarle
street. A large party was assembled
there, among others Tom Moore. I
felt as if I had been gazing all night at
sky-rockets. There were present Mr.
and Mrs. Lockhart, Dr. and Mrs. Som
erville, Sir Martin Shea, who led on
Moore, Washington Irving, Mr. and
Mrs. Murray, and ourselves. The talk
was of wit, and Moore gave specimens.
Charles thought that our host Murray
said the best things that brilliant
night." F. Espinasse, in Harper's
Magazine for September.

A New Use for Electricity.
"What is this?" asked a broker, as
lie sauntered into a Wall street bank
ing house on Saturday and fixed his
inquiring gaze on a curious little ma
chine from which there came a sub
dued *birr and a strong current of air.
Then he put out his hand to investi-
fe
ate. There was a sudden snap, and
drew it back with three fingers cut
half-way off. While tho clerks were
binding up his wonnds previous to
starting him off for the family doctor,
they explained that the thing which ho
saw was an electric motor, while the
part that ho felt, but hadn't seen was
an cighteen-inch fan, making 2,200
revolutions a minute. The broker
Went homo with his curiosity satisfied,
and the clerks decorated tho machine
with a huge placard, "Hands off!"
There are now over fifty of these fans
in use in tho down-town district alone,
tho stock exchange and most of tho
leading banking houses having them.
Tho rent for a ruachiuo is $15 a sum
mer, and they are run by the current
which supplies the lamps at nignt, a
fan and a lamp requiring auout the
same amount ot power, tho cost 01
either being 1 1-5 cents per. hour. The
fans can also be bought outright. A
large one will croato a curreut of air
that can be felt at a distance of fifty
feet. They are m.tdo of two kinds 01
material, metal and fiber. Tho latter
is not as durable, but it isn't so hard
on tho lingers of the inquisitive spec
tators.—.\cuo lor/c Tr.bune.

A TEIP TO COLFAX BP&ING8.
Colfax Springs, on the Chicago, Ilock
Island and Pacific Railroad, is a popular
health resort to which many Western
people go to try the waters, which are
noted for their healing properties. They
are claimed to be beneficial for rheuma
tism and kindred troubles. Mr. Charles
P. Griffin, a butcher of Stuart, la., re
cently made a trial of them and, while
they appear to have done lam some good,
he afterwards discovered a cure which
proved infinitely more efficacious. He
gives this account:
My attack was a very severe one, and
for three months I was compelled to close
my store, as I was not able to attend to
business at all. Mv joints were swollen
and there did not seem to be any part of
my body that did not ache. After suffer
ing in this way until the pain was almost
beyond endurance I went to Colfax
Springs to try the effects of the waters.
The day 1 left home 1 had to be carried
down slairs. After remaining at the
Springs a month I came back home feel
ing somewhat better. A few weeks later,
however, 1 had a relapse which pro rated
nie tho Same as lefore. It was at ih..l time
that I learned of Athlophorns. 1 sent for
a bottle of it, and in lilt, en minutes after
I had taken the first dose 1 felt the ellccts
of it, and when I had finished niv third
bottle I was well. 1 have not lia.l any
rheumatism since and have attended to my
business every day, which is a thorough
test, as I am obliged to be out all kinds of
weather and at all seasons of the year. If
I had known of Athlophoros in the first
place it would have saved me hundreds of
dollars and the detriment to my business
in closing my store. I take great pleasure
in recommending it to others."
Dr. L. I). Hounds, a dentist, for six
teen years a resident ot'Oskaloosa, but for
the past three years of Albia, la., relates
an equally pleasant experience with Ath
lophoros
Rheumatism," he says, lias been my
most serious trouble until about ayear ago,
when I used a bottle of Athlophoros.
Since that time I have not had a twinge of
it. Previously I had been subject to sciatic
rheumatism for several years, many times
so badly that 1 could scarcely drag myself
around. When I commenced with Athlo
phoros my legs were so stiff that I could
Bcareelv get up the slpps to my office. But
I am not troubled that way now, and the
joints of my legs are as free as they ever
were. I had tried so many remedies be
fore that 1 had no faith in Athlophoros
when 1 began with it, but I changed mv
mind after I had taken a few doses and
found ie!ief. All I used was one bottle.
It is the gtandest medicine ever heard of
for rheumatism. My wile has also used
Athlophoros with success equal to mine."
During the years I have been in busi
ness," savs (). E. Civins, a druggist at
Stuart. Mr. Griffin's home. "I have sold
many different kinds of proprietary medi
cines but none that has given such uni
versal satisfaction as Athlophoros has for
rheumatism. I always feci when 1 hand
oat a bottle of that medicine to a custo
mer that I am giving him tlis foil value
of his money. Sinno I have its won
derful effects a:o r,r customers 1 gladly
rsco iiaier.d it i' i tance for rheu
matism."'

WHITE SEAL
BURNING OIL.
The New York Board of Health estimates
that .10,000 lives have been destroyed by the
explosive qualities of petroleum. If every
household would adopt the White Seal oil
for family use, none of these unfortunate
accidents would occur.
WHITE SEAL BURNING OIL
haa none of the defccts usually found in
common oils. Jtxannot be exploded, does
not char the wick, will not smoke, emits no
offensive odor, and prevents the breaking Of
chimneys.
WHITE SEAL BURNING OIL

as light in color as pure spring water. It
elves a strong, steady light, and burns much
Ioiikci than common oils.
