He wants to do what he cah for the Mayor in making up the Demveratic ticket ‘Tne City Treasurer will begin to-morrow the payment of the July or semi-annual interest on the city bonds. After the 26th the interest will be payable only in New York, and those inter- ested should take notice. ‘Tne Committee on Elections was to have met yesterday afternoon to further hear tho Stauber- McGrdth troubles. Several of the members were on hand, Dut at no time was there & quo~ rum, so an adjournment was had. Another meeting will be held Friday. Tux Committee on Streets and Alleys. South, was in session yesterday afternoon; and ha: various propositions under consideration. ‘Among tho projects was one to widen Went- worth avenue between Twenty-ninth and Thirty-ninth streets, taking two feet from each aide. The question was discusted at great length, and finally it was laid over. The peti- tion for raising the Eighteenth-street bridge wasalso considered, but no action was taken, ‘An order was passed vacating half of the alley running from Sawyer street to Wallace, be- tween McGregor and Twenty-fifth streets. and also one for puving South Park avenue, from ‘Twenty-second to Thirty-fifth street, the under- standing in the last case being that stone gutters should be built. ‘Tre Commissioner of Public Works will_ad- yertise to-morrow for _macadamizing Ellis avenue, from Dougias to Egan avenue; Calumet avenue, from Thirty-first street to Douglas avenue; Calumet avenue, from Eighteenth to Twentieth street; Eighteenth street, from In- diana avenue to Caltimet avenue; Twentieth street, from State to.Calumet avenue: Eldridge court, from State to Michigan avenue; West Jackson street, from Halsted to Hoyne street; Elizabeth street, from Madison to ; North avenue, from W to the River? avenue, froin Northavenne to Racine avenue; Clybeurn avenue, from Racine to Fullerton avenue; * Centre’ avenue, from Taylor to ‘Twelfth street; and Centre avenue, from Blue Island avenue to Twenty-socond street. - A JOBE ON THE MAYOR Amove ison footto take advantage of the Maffor's-absence from the city. The charter provides that in the absence of the Mayor the Council can elect his successor; and, further more, that the person so eleoted shall have all the powers of the Mayor, ctc., and there are some who are inclined to make the best use of the advantages they en- joy. Ald. Lawler would like to possess the Mayoralty honors for twenty-four hours, at Jeast, and there are several others of the same state of mind, so it would astonish few to eec a Mayor pro tem. elected to-morrow evening, provided a quorum of the Council is present. Any one, as Acting Mayon could create great deal of fun in twenty-four hours, even,—he could remove everybody, and put in their placo many who heve been seeking places,—and it would take Mr. Harrison sometime to straighten things out upon his return. THE COUNTY-BUILDING. Tse trial of George Stratton, who severa’ months since shot and killed Lottie Robinson, proprietress of a Kinzie street bugnio, will begin in the Criminal! Court to-morrow. THE Joint Committee yesterday discussed the question of elevators for the new Court-House, r and appointed a sub-committee, composed of, Messrs. Burling, Wood, Coburn, and Spofford, who with Architect Eyan will make some addi- tional examinations and report to the Commit- tee Tuesday. Tre Joint Committee on Buildings and Public Service met yesterday. Tho contract for paint- ing and glazing in the new Court-House was again tuken up. it will be remembered that this contract has already been passed upon, the Committee, at a recent meeting having determined to report to the Board thut the con- tract be let to Thomas Nelson. Several mem- bers, however, were not entirely satisfied, and upon motion of Commissioner Wood the matter was aguin opened. Mr. Wood moved that all the contractors be requested to make statements ‘as to how much they would allow for the fresco- ing and ornamental paintine provided this work was not required. This notion was lost. Some one then moved to reconsider the vote indors- ing Nelson's bid. and this was also yoted down. It is now probable that the painting will go for- ward at an early day. The Attempt to delay the work by propositions apparently introduced for that purpose has been defeated. Tne proceedings in the Arbuckle arson case were continued and concluded Neen On behalf of the defendants, Col. Munn made a musterly argument, be spealciny, about one hour andahalf. He followed by State’s-Attor ney Mills, who reviewed the testimony and made one of his most convincing arguments. At 2 o'clock the case went to the jury, who, after a consultation of about twenty minutes, returned a verdict of guilty, fixing the punishment of Moan, alius Arbuckle, at ten years in the Peni- tentiary. Mary Carr, alas Arbuckle, the spurious wife of the accused, wus given six years in the same institution. The case js somewhat remarkable among the causes celebres of Cook County. Not a particle of direct evidence was introduced, but the un- broken chain of circumstantial evidence was absolutely overpowering. It was evident long before the case came to nn end that the prisoner had given up all hope. The State produced such convincing and uncontested proof of guilt ‘that a denial was useless. SOUTHERN VISITORS. : THE TENNESSRE PRESS, About forty ludies and gentlemen, comprising the Tennessee Press Association excursion, ar- rived in the city yesterday via the Illinois Cen- tral Railroad, and are quartered at the Tremont House.

A num- ber visited Haverly’s and Hoolcy’s matinées yesterday afternoon. All .of the editors, with one or two exceptions, are strong Democrats, and they are also anti-Tilden. They say that the State favors Seymour or Thurman, but that the delegntion to Cincinnati soes_uninstructed, and it will vote fora nominee who will be the choice of the Convention, without regard to personal preferences. To-day a number will attend Divine service at the Episcopal Cathedral und at the Cathedral of the Holy Name. In the afternoon ge le be treated to an excursion on the lake. ey leave to-morrow cvening for Cincinnati. THE NEW ORLEANS FIREMEN. ‘The visiting firemen had a gata or of it yes- terday. In the morning they visited, under the guidance of the Committee intrusted with their care and amusement, as an opening to the day's enjoyment, Engine-House No. 13, where a trial of speed was made by the boys, who hitched up in seven seconds. The Fire-Patrol. was then called at,and here Ben Bullwinkle’s lightning company bitched up ia five seconds, ‘The most intoresting exhibition was made: at Engine- House No.1, where the compuny took out the engine. ran itrotnd the block, rolied out 200 feet of hose, and got the water playing through it in two minutes and fifteen eeconds. These three exhibitions of the speed witb which the Chicago boys can get to work were pronounced umapproachable by the visitors, who acknow!l- edged that they hid uever seen such work be- fore. A visit to the Board of Trade closed the morning's experiences. In tho afternoon the Mechanics were taken to in the evening they visitedthe pie Theatre. The program to-day ‘will con- sist of a tour of Chicago's oe, system. was some talk yesterday of the Visiting firemen going to Milwaukee to-morrow, but the fecling of the majority is decidedly adverse to leaving Chicago before the homeward march makes it necessary for them to do 50. WHEELER & WILSON. THE WOES OF A CORPORATION, ‘The monopoly of rich corporations forms 8 rich theme for Communistic rant, but the tables ap! to be turned yesterday, and one of these “blarsted monopolies” condesgended to invoke judicial aid against one of its custom- ers. The complainant is the Wheeler & Wil- son Sewing-Machine Company, and its’ sets £ out tbat in November Inst its agont, G. W. Wentworth, sold to Annie Korter a sewing-machine for $60. The paper which was drawn up was the usual fiction of a lease whereby Mrs. Korter agreed to pay $58 month until $60 was paid. The Compuny admitted oe receipt of $20, which was paid by the surrender of anata seaving-machine, and Mrs. Korter gave abill of sale of the same. Two days after Mrs. Korter's husband, Lonis Korter, camo to the Oifice, and by representing that he wished tobuv severnl machines got the wholesale prices. He thennsked to have the price of bis wife’s ma- chine reduced, which request was refused. Whoo the first payments on the muchine came dne they were tpt paid, and the Company sued Korter and wife, and obtuined judgment for $15. fathree months another sult was begun ani another judgment recovered for $15 more. On the Tith of March Korter peyan a suit against the Company for trespass in _ bus! the old machine of his wife. On tho Iith inst. the Com- pany received the following ferocious written threat: “Gentlemen, on 2lst_ Juno 1880 we shull commence tondvertise the Wheeler & ‘Wil- son Co for frand acted upon the people through- out the United States.” Accompanying thia was a printed * Notice to the Public,” very good as to paper and type, and very bad as to Eee er tion and punctuation, giving an_account of the Company's dealings with Mrs. Korter, charging that it bad cheatet ber, and winding up with he following rather ambiguous 51 A old machines obtained by the Company in this dishonest way are kept by them the new one’s tuken from those they get the old one’s from.” Korter announced that on the Zist inst. (to-morrow) he would scatter these circulars throughout the city. The Company charges that Korter has several thousand of the circu- Jars at bis factory, No. 281 Randolph street, one of which was kindly given to a newspaper report with the request that he should publish it. It is one of the standing privileges¥ of reporters to grind sothee eople’s axes. ie mpany | assel seer ie will positively be in sparably injured in its good namie, reputation, and business if this store fall of’ circulars is allowed to be spread abroad, and it asks for an immedinto injunction to prevent such a dire calamity, and also to pre- vent Korter and his wife, who are made de- fendants, from writing, prating. or otherwise publishing any other libelous or defamatory words aguinst its corporate dignity. THE JUDGES. PREPARING FOR THE HOLIDAYS. ‘The Judges of the various courts do not mani- fest any remarkable anxiety to announce when they will take their vacation, but as some of the lawyera may want to know this fact the follow- ing information, which is as trustworthy as can ‘be gotten at present, may not come amiss: Judge Drummond will go to Springfield next week for ten days. He will not take any vaca- Co! Te} tion, but will be in chambers as usual all sume | tt will be in court for set cases and general business until about the middie of July, whon he will take a well-carned vacation until September. Judge Gary will hold court with a ju until hbo has heard the thirty-six cases comprising his latest call, which begins to-day. His vacation will begin about the l0th or 15th of July. Judgé Smith will take bis annual rest as soon as ho gots through the present term of the riminal Court, and will not be back till Septem- bor. Judge Jameson: will probably adjourn about the Ist of July. Judge Rogers goes to the Criminal Court the frst Monday in July, where be can be found by those desirous of wishing him the compliments of the summer season. Judge Soran will be in his court-room until about July 10,and thereafter can be interviewed by cable in Europe for the next six weeks. ‘Judge Tuley will also only grant injunctions across the ocean after the Ist of July until autumn. Judge Barnum is gotting through the trial of his calendar with all possible speed, and expects to enjoy the moaquitoes and other delights of the country after the Fourth. f Lastly, all the head clerks will steal a week’s rest, aud all the unfortunate deputies will do the next best thing by sponding their spare time and money on base-bail and the pools.

The Springer Estate—A Gang of Couns terfelters—Shipping Grain in Bulk— Assauiting a Priesi—The St. Jean Baptiste Celebration. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Hammtox, June 19.—The heirs to the Springer estate held a meeting here, at which about forty claimants were present from the Staves and Canada. Mr. Moses Springer, of Waterloo, read a repart showing the position of affairs at present, and what steps had been taken to secure the $80,000,000 worth of property in Wilmington, Del. Mr. Springer was elected manager of the affairs of the heirs, and he will attend a meeting in the United States soon, to endeavor to bring about @ union between the Springer branch of the Republic and the Canadian one. The Canadian Springars trace their genealogy back to 1701, and possess the coat-of-arms of the family. It appears that the'Springer who emigrated to England was a Swedish Baron, and the possessor of con- siderable wealth; that one of his heirs, Christopher Springer, came to the United States, obtaining a grant of land from Will- iam Penn, and that any money he ac- cumulated he forwarded to Stockhoim for deposit,—the amounts thus deposited now amounting, with interest, to the sum of $150,000,000, to which the heirs will! make claim as soon as the Wilmington claim is settled, of which there are now excellent prospects, the occupants of the property hay- ing made overtures for a compromise at the rate of one-quarter of the assessed value of the land. Spectal Dispatch to ‘The Chicago Tribune, Toronto June 19.—The counterfeiter ar- rested here the other day is Robert Johnston, not Harrison, as first stated. George B. Per- kins, of the United States Government De- tecti force, is here to secure the -plate from which the $5 United States legal-tend- er notes are_printed. Perkins says the Johnstons are Kentuckians, the family num- bering nine persons: the father, Robert Johnston; five sons,—Charles, ‘Thomas, Da- vid, John, and Robert: the mother, and two daughters. On the 16th of June last year, Thomas, who is lame, and two others visited Black Rock and Fort_ Erie, where they uttered counterfelt $5 Unite States Treasury-notes, and then went to Dunkirk, where they passed more of the worthless money. The next day it became known that a new bogus $5 Treasury-note was In cirenlation, and the police got upon the trail of the three men who had come from Black Rock. sey were all arrested, and gave false names; but they were identi- fied as the Johnston brothers, well known in Indiana and Ohio as forgers and counter- feiters. Thomas and Charles were found guilty of uttering the counterfeit notes, and the former was sent to the Albany Prison for ten years, and the latter for eight years and “ six months. _ John Johnston | is now in Buffalo Jail - awaiting trial for the same offense. David, who is a printer, is at large; _as is also the other brother, who lives at Montreal. Thomas is an expert engraver, and made the plates from which the United States notes and Ca- nadian notes were printed,—the signatures it is said, being forged by the girls, who are well educated, handsome, and lady-like. Ac- cording to Mr. Perkins’ story, the whole Tamily have been enzaged in counterfeiting, —the mother and two daughters being once taken to Washington on a charge of that de- scription. The old man is now weak and sickly, which may account for his having revealed the hiding-place of the plates to Detective Murray. The Johnstons are all well known in Cincinnati, where they plied their business until they came under the notice of the police, when "they removed to Canada, The arrest of the oid man will no doubt break up the opera- tions of the gaus. The family have been living in good style on Hazelton avenue,here, for more than a year. ‘Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune.

A woman with such marvelous attributes might as well have been married fifty times as twice. it makes no difference toa man who is down whether he slipped on a banana-peel or stubbed his toe nas Tho Fool in “King Lear.” What Shakspeare did not do, as well as what ho did do, ns a playwright has no better proof or illustration than in bis Fools. He did not Invent the personiige; he found it on the stage. Indeed he favented nothing; he added nothing to the drama as he found’ it; he made nothing, not even the story of one of his own plays: he cre- ated nothing, save men and women, and Aricie and Calibans. What he did with the Fool was this: ‘This personage is the resultant compound of the Vice,a rude allegoricn! personage con- stantinthe old Moral Plays,and the Court- jester. He was a veuter of coarse and silly ribaldry, and a player of practical jokes. Only su far back as the time of Shakspeure’s boyhood the Fool's part was in most cusos not written, and, atthe stage direction “Stultus loquitur” (the Fool speaks), he pertormed bia function ex- tempore; and thus he continued to jape and to caper for the diversion of those who Uked horse-play and ribaldry. But Shakspeare saw that the grinning toad had a jewel in bis head, and touching bim with his transforming pea shows him to us as he appears in ‘As You Like it,” in “All's Well that ‘Bhs Wel and last of all, and greatest, in “ King Lear." ‘In this trag- edy the Fool rises to hervic proportions, as ho must have risen.to be in keeping with his sur- roundings, He has wisdom enough to stock a college of philosophers,—wisdom which bas come from long experience of the world with- out responsible relations to it. For plainly he and Lear have grown old together. The King is much the older; but the ‘Pook has the marks of time upon his face as well as upon bis mind. ‘They have been compunions since he was & boy; and Lear still calls ‘him boy and lad, as he did when when he tirst learned to look kindly upon his young, loving, haif-distraught companion. ‘The relations between the: dernes: ich, knowing! but not hidden,-by the grotesque surface of the Foot'’s official function. His whole soul is bound up in his love for Lear and for Corddid. | He would not set his life “at a pin’s fee" to serve his master; and wee a youne ee tress goes to France he pines away for tho sight of her. | When the Ki feels the conseqtences of his headstrong folly, the Fool continues the satirfenl comment which he begins when he offers Kent .his coxcomb. So might Touchstone have done: but in a vein more cynical, colder, -and without that undertone rather of swectness than of sadness which tells ‘us that this jeater hns a broken heart. ‘About the middle of the play the Fool sudden- pears, making in reply to Lear’s remark, “well go to supper in the morning,” the fit- ting rejoinder, “And Cll go to bed at noon.’ Why does he not return? Clearly for this rea- son: He remains with Lear during hisinsanity, to answer in antiphonic commentary the ma King’s lofty ravings with his simplo wit and homespun wisdom; but xfter that time, when Lear sinks from frenzy into forlorn imbecility, the Fool's utterances would have jarred upon oureurs. Tbe situation becomes too grandly pathetic to admit the presence of a jester, who, unless he is professional, is nothing. Even Shakspeare could not make sport with the great primal elements of wo. And sothe poor Foot Sought the little corner where he slept, turned his face to the wall. and went to bed in the noon of his life for the last time—functus officio. ————__— LIGHTNING TRAINS, Bpectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Barone, June 19.—The Baltimore & | Ohio quite evidently does not scare worth a cent.
