The men who pro- posed to commit the deed were going to kill the watehman ; they had been after him (Beli) to go with them, and had told him tha: the job was to be done Friday night. Witness asked him who the parties were, and he stated he only knew two, the Schenig brothers, Johnand Charles.

Seehniz was about 40 years ef ege, and has always been regarded as a tough character. Some time before the war he was convicted of arson in setting a colored woman's house on fire and was sentenced to siv years inthe pen- itentiary. Then he went into the army, and after his return he got into another difficulty— a charge of rape being preferred, which he d and sentenced to'2) years im- soument, bat a new trial was obtalued, and owing to a defective indictment he escaped. “SUKEY” BELL is better known as a petty thief. Heisa native of Virginia, where he has a father and mother living, and is martied, but lived with his wile but a-short time. This moruizg he was taken to the Police Court, and a Mr. Engelbrecht en- tered bail for him in $1.00 to appear when called. He Says He Wasy'T DgoOwsNgD.—Mr. Danie! Carroll, residing on the 7th street road }syond Boundary st called at the office this morning to say that he was uot drowned iu the Eastern Branch last Thursday as the papers led his family aud friends to suppose. ie states that he started out in the country to look for work, in.company with a stranger he fell in with, after a tiresome walk laid down in the shade to rest near Miller’s farm, adjoin- ing the branch. anc when he awoke his com- panion had gone and faking bis clothes which were tied up in a cundle, and as appears, threw them away on the bridge where they were found for the malicious purposeef con- veying the impression that he (Carrell) had committed suicide.

THE SEWERAGE QUESTION. A large delegation of citizens, embracing Inerchants on the line of Pennsylvania ave- nue, clerks from the Post Office, Patent Oftice and’ Treasury oflices, and housekeepers on Mis.ouri avenue, waited on the District Com- missioners to-day to urge the necessity of an intercepting sewer or some device by which to preyeut a recurrence of the overilow of filthy water from the sewers into the streets into and surrounding their premises. The Commissioners heara their complaints and assured the delegation that they were perfect ly well aware of the evils which surrounded them, and would be glad if they possessed the power to effectualiy remedy them. The imited amount of funds they had to expend the present year would not justify them iu making any radical change ‘in the present sewerage system, but they would do all in th power in tle way of temporary expedicnts ¢: prevent damage to health and property. Mr A. Watson, who has a plau for an interc sewer north of the avenue, was present. | | THE CONTRACTS for finishing up the two wings of the new workhouse, to fit them for occupancy, has been given out, and the work commenced to- day. tr.

New indusiries will be introduced, and ail will be made to earn their bread or arve. The recent publisued statement that Intendant Faehtz had been forced to cajl upon Major Morgan for the aid of the police force the mob of workhou.e conviets, is represent- | ed by the officiais there as untrue in every | paiticular. No such attempts at escape or | insubordinavion have been made, and Col. \ htz is amply vrepared to meet anything of the sort, no mater how well planned. THE POLICEMEN'S PUND. District Treasurer Dodge, who now has charge of the police.nen’s fund, has written to Major Morgan suggesting that the balance in his hands, of $1,751.18, be invesied like the rest, in 365 bonds. In reply Major Morgan has stated that it is necessary to keep a sum in hand, 28 one of the principal uses to which the fund ts putis the advancing of money to the men to get their uLiforms with. He states that the aggregate approximate amount spent for winter uniforms is $4,1/5, and for the sum- mer ones $5,200. .LED ON TO PROVE HIS ASSERTION. 8. J. Brown, of Mouut Pieasant, ina ‘ion to the Commissioners, states that Benjamin P. Davis, a trustee of the public schools, isa voting citizen of Massachusetts. The Commissioners have invited Mr. Brown to furnish them with proofs to establ'sh this statement.

After Death—What? WHY BISHOP FOSTER BELIEVES IN THE IM- MORTALITY OF THE SOUL. The Rey. Randolph S. Foster, of Boston, de- livered at Fairport, N. Y., last Friday his sec- ond lecture, entitl d “ Beyond the Graye,” to an tmmen:e aud greatly interested audience He procced to speak of the effect upon th soul of the destruction of the body at deat and said: “Suddenly the human machin stands still. What becomes of the man? have no personal testimony. We have no man who has gone beyond the gra It | we take the Bible away, our belief ina future life rests upon an insecure foundation. J find myselfa man. I think, I feel, [have emotions and feelings. Iwill. lam. 1 kuow a'ltnis. I ihink and feel that 1 am to live forever. God has put this idea into me, and [will hold to t until he takes it from me. He made me, and cannot remake myself or put myself out of e. The proof is that what has been bides, remains forever. There is no any created thing has ever been abolished or aestroyed. No creature can de- elf, Itis true that forms perish, but re not things; they change, but the ubstance remains. It is said that as animals perish so may men perish; but I deny t. The substance of the body is not destroyed, only the form. The soul of a man is a pure and simple substance; hence it can- not perish. An anatomist can disscet the body, but no anatomist can dissect the soul. Evidence that man was ever annihilated is challenged from all men. A human soul is a spiritual essence ihat can think or will. It is a wing something; it unfolds its power, and in this there is no limit.” He then sketched the growth of the human soul from babyhood to the prime of manhood, and said there was no limit to development, which would go on forever. He said: “ Would God CITY ITEMS.
