A distinguished militia officer told a TRmUNE reporter the other day that during the recent Jabor riots he had his horse shot under him. “You mean,” said the reporter, gently but firmly, * that your horse shot from ander you.” The hero smiled a smile serene and high, and said, “0f course, this is not for publication.” A gentleman who has just returned from New York suys that he saw Richard Grant White, when playing billiards, miss_one shot badly through putting on too much side. *“Too much English on that,” said the spectator. **Yes, too much ¢ Eversday English,” replied the great grammaticaster, With 2 sad, sweet smile. ‘The County Board of Education was to have held a meeti \zicstcn]:ly afternoon, but there were not enoush memuers preseat. to constitute aquorum.

The Chicago Coal Exchange was to haye held a regular monthly wmceting at 3 o'clock yester- day afternoon in its rooms in the Merchants' Block, northwest corner ot LaSalle and Wash- ington streets. Somehow or other the attend- ance was very light, and by 3:30 o'clock there Wwas not even a quorum present. The trouble seems to be that the members take but little interest in the Exchange, and yesterday showed only $35in the treasury. Mewmbers fail to pay their dues, and tlis lack of attention is likely to lead to dire results, as bills are accumulaiing and must be paid, and, unless they are, the cle- gant and comfortable furuishing of the rooms 15 likely to be pounced upon and sold President A. D, Waldron occupied the chair, and Joseph Kirkland was in his place as Secre- tary. A pumber of bills were audited, but as there are po funds with whivh to meet them, unless the members “ pony ” u not ordered paid.

The sccker after news at the three defunct savings-banks yesterday went unrewarded for Ins pains. At the State Savings Institution Judge Otis had nothing to say, except that he was retting along slowly, but didn’t know when he should make a report to the Court. Dr. Turpin, Recciver of the Fidelity. had no special information to give up. The clerks were still workiug away at the books, getting matters in proper shape for a balance, and, as for Dr. Tur- pln himself, he was answering questions for everybody who had a burden on his mind, and wanted to know wbat the pros- pects were for dividends and the removing of that burden. Besides this labor, most trying to a man’s patience, in that it was ncees- sary to repeat things something less than a thotisand times, Dr. Turpin bad to take care of the bunk’s correspoudence and clear the decks in that particular. The result was that he did not go intg court during the day and ask for the appointmentof cxperts to appraise the property on which the bank has mortgazes. This will be attended to, most probably, to-morrow morn- ing. The scheme to reorganizethe bank sort of rested yesterduy. A few more depositors put down their names, but it is beginning to be ap- parent that 7,000 depositors form a body of very unwieldy proportions. It has been proposed to et them togethier in a public meeting, but no definite steps have been taken to that end. Receiver Ward had nothing to report yester- day, either. He is quietiv pegeing away at his work, and nothing definite can be kaown until he gets ready to make u report to the Court, which hie_Lupes 1o do by the end ot this weel, or, if possible, o little souner. A number of de- positors desire him 10 usk the Court to allow the real cstate belonging to the bank to be sold to a stock company of depositors who should pay for it with their credits at the fate of 100 cents on the dollar. It is claimed that such a comvany would gradual- Iy dispose of the property at good rates, and in the end the creditors would make more out of thereal estate than the Receiver, who, if he sold it now, would have to do 60 at ruinous sacri- fices. The trouble about any such move- ment i8 that it i3 bard to get a majority of dcpositors to agree to it, and this scheme may fall to the ground_very inuch as the one to reorganize the Fidelity bids fair to do, unless it is pushed with more vigor, INVESTMEST CERTIPICATES.

Williams vesterday worning at 10 o'clock. At the appointed hour, Mr. Bonngy, counsel for the defe arose and stated to the Court that injunceion suits had been brougat in forty or fifty cases, and the par- ties desired to arrange matlers 50 as to save as mueh expense as possible, aud as it had been arranged that the injunction cases should be beard by Judgre Farwell, be reaucsted, on oehalf of Judge Otis, that the case might be Iaid over unuil 4 o'clock in the afternoon. at which time Judge Farwell would doubtless be at liberty to bear the proceedings. The latter was oceupy- inz the benelh at the Crimiual Court, and it con, Utica, X. ¥ would 1ot be possible for him to wive the sub- Jeet s audicnce any sooner. e esired that a motion for ction should be entered, so that Judge | could hear it at the stipu- fated time, uud then the latter would probably set the time for discussion for next Saturday. _Mr. D.J. Schuyler, on behalt of the depositors, objected to the delay it had been anuounced that the trial shonld come before Judge Williams; the Court was preseat, and everstiing appeared Lo b6 in readi- vess. Therefore, he desired that the trial shuuld proceed at once. dge Williams replied that, although lie was nterested party in this particular case, be was interested in” another having similar Dbearings, and under no circumstances would he consent to hear the trial. Mr. Bonney said he had had a conference with Judgge Farwell, and the Tatter could not possi by give the matter a hearing before 4 o'clo Tiiey had amended the original bill, or rather had filed 3 supplemental bil), setting up the stock liabilities, and also a petition on’ benalf of the Receiver, that the suits brought by the de- pusitors azainst, the stockhoiders be enjoined. The Court granted the request of Mr. Bon- ney, ana £ave permission to have the matter Inid over until Judge Farwell would be able to hear %Jn: cast, which will probably be to-morrow morning.

THE WORK OF ODTAINING A JURY in the casc of the indicted Commissioners and contractors occupicd the time of the Criminal Court again yesterday, and again very little headway was made. The indicted were in their scats as usual, and were surrounded by the same crowd of sympathizers who have managed to subsist the last few years on what little they could pick up from the leavings of the *Ring theiveries. Never did huwmau eyes rest upon a more dejected or guilty-looking sct of men, and never did these same men more sensibly feel the danger of their sins overtaking them. Periolat was the centre of the group, as he has been all- through the impaneling of the jury and was watchful and full of suggestions to the sttorneys, and manifested an interess only cqualed in the past by his interest in the robberies of the gang. Ilc was by no means cheerful, however, and the broadest joke or the wildest or most ludicrous question or answer was insufficient to provoke a sipile. When the Court opened there remained only three jurors to select from a venire issued the day before for twenty-fire men. They were cailed up one by one, and all manner of ques- tions were put to them to test theirquahfication as jurors. One of the leading questions, and ong¢ which seemed to be of the greatest import tothe defendunts, was, * Have you cver read anythine about the, case fn the papers¢” Thc answers in most cases were in the aflirmative, and in every instance Tug TRIBUNE was the pa- per that had been read. Out of the entire batch the defease accepted but two, which cannot be taken us an indication of the innocence and fearlessness of the indicted, for they were an excentionally good class of citizens, and would have made better than a erage jurors. Those uccepted were M. [ Kauffmann, dealer in millinery, of No. 255 West Madison, and E. F. Cole, laundryman, of No. 301 West Madison street. As soon as the venire had been exhausted, another was issued, returnable to-morrow, and the Court was about to adjourn. The adjourn- ment was interrupted by Mr. Reed making the sugzestion to let the jurors selected disperse to their homes until Monday, which created con- siderable merriment in the room from its ridie- ulousness. The Court saw the objcet souzht Ly the defense in an instant. which was to create a sympathy with the jury, and before the prosecution coull ve heard from put his foot down on the proposition and ordered the jury to remain ju the custody of the olicers of the Court, as they had been since the commence- ment of the case. . Some discussion then arose as to what read- ing matter should be allowed the jurors to-day as they bask in the pariors of the Sherman Honse.. The prosceution was in favor of all the daily papers being excluded, while the defense was willing that the papers should be read after all matters relating to the case had been clipped. The proposition of the defeuse was acceoted by the Court, and on their motion Periolat was appointed to prunc the papers for the defense, and the State’s Attorney will look after the interests of the prosecution in the matter. As far as the trial has gone—if it may be said to have commenced—there is the deepest car- nestness on both sides, which is quite in con- trast with the trial of the other metabers of the 807 @ year ago. MINOK CRIMINAL-COURT ITEMS. There was nothing new from the indicted fn connection with the Protection Life-Tusurance Company. Reid was not heard trom, and the belict is that be does not intend to be. Ihlliard was over i consultation with some attorneys, uud he was the only oue of the indicted who put in an appearauce. The Grand Jury yesterday reported a large batch of indictments of a petty order, and was discharged. The jury has found over 100 true bills, aud asmany “nobifls.” . Noindictments were re- turned in the Brudgeport stink-factory com- laint, but this, with scveral other matters of investigation, was left for che next jury. A rule was entered by Judge Farwell yester- day, ou the motion and affidavit of one Dennis Collins. calling on police ofticers Licut. William Curberry and Patrick Sullivan to_show cause why they should not be attached for contempt of Court. The atlidavit charces that the oflicers mentioned have been indulyine in the pastime of intimiGating witnesses before the Grand Jury. A hearing will be had specdily. The following were sentenced io the Criminal Court yesterday: Frank fooley, mayhem, nine mouths House of Currection Charles 1. M. sler, larc tinry: Frank Wlliams, House of Correction ix mouths Houseof Correction: James Ke nun, driving away a borse, three nunths House of Correction. Otlier sentences of those con- icted during the term are ver to be pro- nounced, and several motions for new trials are also to be disposed of- THE EXPOSITION. COL. RETNOLDS’ SHOW IN FULL BLAST. The attendance at the Exposition yesterday was fully up to the average of this year, and considerably in cxcess of that for thg corre- sponding day in IS76. So far the visitors from the country have overwhelmed the Chicugo folks, and it seems likely that this will be the case throughout. Kor some uukuown reson g member of the Bourd of Education, who might have been supposed to kuow better, has declared his opposition to the school children having a holiday in order 1o at- tend the show on a special day. When it is considercd that the schools ave closed every time that a mew st of thieves is to be chosen for the County Board, or. a different lay-oup of incorpeteuts for other public offices, this poticy seems tnsane. The mabagement of the Expositiou are unable to make a speei rate for the cuildren on Saturday (which is a boli- day), for the reason that the building is always crowded on that day. The addition of such a vast number of chil- dren ow that day_ would simply result in a general blockade, while if the children are assigned some dav carlier in the week they can enjoy themselves without inter- Tering with the comfort of other: Up to the present time the daily attendance has considerably excceeded that of last year, aud @ very successful season is anticipatea. The ‘“‘show? js much fulier than in 1876, and a new feature, that of a nat- ural history exhibition, has been added. Tothis the Acadeiny of Sciences has coutributed liber- ally, and the collection bas been still further enriched by private cotributions. Visitors to the Exposition should pay some attention to this department. p Gallery D of the Exposition art Hall is maiu- 1y occupicd by the . bric-a-brac collection, and the water-colors there contained have already becn reviewed. The oil paintiags include two pictures of a pronounced type, belonging to the school originated by thee rratic Goya and re- vived by Mariano Fortuny.. Eroli and Egus- guiza are typieal of the present Spanish school, c one reprosenting an Oriental beauty cnjoy- ing asiesta upon her couch, spread under the luxuriant palms in a courtyard, with a brilliancy of color aud a reckless disrezard of uccuracy in drawing, and the other showing « ladyin her boudoir proudly cxaminjug 3 handsome bou- et, presumably sent by o lover. Tne face has BiRes beanty, and. the texture of flesh clearness in quality not often attained by Egus- quiza, who has given all of his usual attention 10 the nicetics of the drapery. "Another nainting which may be considercd su- perlor to theartist’s usual work is 5. F. Cropsey’s view of the church and graveyard of Stoke Pogis, the_scenc of Grey's clezy. Thereisa softness of atmosphere, o harmony of color, and a quiet sobriety inafcative of work from true pleasure, and not with futent of creating 8 sen- sation. A little painting of considerable merit is E. L. Heury's ** Mamma can’t answer such ucstions,” beautifally drawn and painted with numerous accessorics of home ornamect. Shartleil’s * Wolf at the Door " Is a huwmorous icture ofagaunt animal walting huagrilyat the owly door of a needy artist; Wwhose oot alone can bescen resting on_the ensel. Miss Laura Wooduward has twb upright pictures of scenes in Northern New York, and P. P. Ryder gives a representation of the interior of an old-fash- foued home. The central paloting of this group is_Key's cenfeunial picture” of “ The Golden Gate of California,” whicl is a good illustration of the Enelish criticism that bigness is mot always greatness. In increasing the size of his cauvas he has intepsified the hardness of his drawing, and lost the mellow feeling which properiy belongs to quict views of the occan, Maynard has a capi- tal study of still life, claboritted with all the painstaking care of a Germun; Perry’s “Moru- ine Glory has not the beautiful sentiment of his “ Milkmaid,” but Bristol excels his usual represcutation of Awnerican.stenviy in_the view of Lake George, near Sabbathi-Day Point. The array of brouzes aud furnisure before these pict- ures diverts the actention, though they are worthy of careful examination. ANOUNCEMENTS. W. 0.

CRIMINAL. Detective Steele yesierday returned from Rockford, bringing with him Cammaun and Waldron, the commission mer who swindled Bell & Cilley, of New York, out of $600ona consignment of stuffed butter firkins. Superintendent Mickey yesterduy received a telegram from Detroit announcing the capture in that city of Fred Lyon, who {5 wanted for cmbezzling some $80 from A. Truesdell, doing business on the Board of Trade. Lyon ran short on a personal speculation, and to make it up be gave his employer’s check, snd identitied the payee at the bank. At about 7 o’clock last evening Mary White- craft and Jomes Dunlea. inmates of tenement- Touse at No. 46 Desplaines street, engaed in o drunken row, in which Dunlea stabved the Woman ip the breast with a pocket-knife, in- flicting a deco bat not serious wound. Dunlea was arrested by Officer Ebinver, and was locked up in the Madison Street Station. Friday atternoon Detectives Heinzman, Scott, and Steele arrested a suspivious-looking *fellow whom they saw hanging about the Exposition Building. Yesterday morning Detective Sim- mous received a ‘pointer,” and, upon examining the seal ~ attached to the watch<hain in possession of the prisoner, found it to be one which was taken from D. B. Hughes, on Jackson street, near ‘Wubash avenue, last Friday evening by high- waymen. The fellow gave lhis pame as Charles Boyd or Bowens, but maintaincd a stolid indifference us to the charge made against bim. In the evening he was cou- holding up Bradford Burdick on Thursday even- ing. They evidently belonged to the oue gang, and the police hope to bag the other mémbers of it within a very fow hours. Minor arrests: James Wilkins, who ran into Engine-House No. 10 just as the Company was 2oing to the fire, and attempted to steal several coats; William ~ Parker, larceny of clothing and ’ jewelry _ from Gus Anderson; Frederick Wheeler, larcenv of goods from H. W. Wetherell, No. 141 Wabash avenue, in whose employ he was, ana for being acvessory to the burglary of that store some two weeks ago; J. 8. Mason and William Shaw, two New York thieves who arrived in this city vesterday, and were about 1o begin operations. 1t is exceedingly fanny, and it is slso true, although Capt. Séavey has denicd it. Tuesday n'l:lghl Iast&when the Madison street police raid- ed Laura Jonnson’s house of jill-fame on Union street, they found among their prisoners two police officials in hizh standing. Both will appear before the police tribunal - Sonday, and guring those hours it may be expected that the West Chicazo Avenue Station will contain noofficers.
