THE PROGRESS MADE IN BUILDIXG SUBURBAN STREET RAILROADS—A PROPOSED EXTENSIVE HOTEL BUILDING NEAR THE CITY—THE BRICK INDUSTRY—FINE RFSMDENCES GOING UP, Two electric arteries will soon parallel each other from the city bounds to the District line. One of these, tho Tenleytown electric railroad, is already completed nearly to the District line, while the other road, which will be built along Connecticut avenue extended, has only been begun. The latter road, us is well known, will pass beyond the District lino and will extend through Montgomery county in a northeast direction, The parallelism of the two roads, however, will not cease at the District line, Arrangements have already been made for the organization of an electric street railroad com- pany for the purpose of constructing an elec- trie road from ‘Tenleytown to Rockville. This new road will practically be an extension of the Tenleytown electric road, although the management of the two roads will be entirely distinct. The incorporators of the county road, of which Mr. John E. Beall of this city is one, expect to have the portion of the road as far as Bethesda built and in operation by the first of November next, The new road will be operated either by horses or by power furnished by the ‘'en- leytown company, The object of the construc- tion of the Rockville road and the county ex- tension of the Connecticut avenue road is to develop the property through which the pro- posed roads are to run. Large tracts have een purchased by the gentlemen who are active in promoting these enterprises, Wh the two lines are completed with their exte: sions. a3 they might be turned into Mont- gomery county, there will then be two parallel lines of street railwaysa mile or more apart running out from the city a distance of about four miles to the District line and then about a mile beyond into Montgomery county. The terminus of the Tenleytown electric road at the District line will be quite a railroad center, The proposed electric road to Rock- ville wilt have its starting point at this term nus and also the Glen Echo electric road. 'th jatter road will extend in a northwest direc- tion across the country for a distance of about three miles and will end at the Conduit road in the center of the subdivision known as Glen Echo Heights. The grading of this road is about completed and the rails and ties are on hand ready to be put down. The cars have been ordered and it is expected that the road will be completed by the fall, THE CONNECTING LINK. The Tenleytown electric road, which is to be the connecting link with the city for both of these roads, is not yet built to the District line. The cars are now run toa point on the Tenleytown road a short distance beyond Oak View and the construction of the remaining portion of the road to the District line is being pushed forward rapidly. In other directions facilities of the sub- urban street railroads are being improved. A new system of traction known as the Judson, which will do away with horses, is being put down on the road which runs out the 7th street road to Brightwood, and preparations are being made to extend the Eckington electric road from New York avenue, along Sth and G streets to 15th street, opposite the ‘Ireasury Department. The completion of this section of the road will connect the country about the Catholic University and Glenwood Cemetery with the heart of the city. The new extension ofthe Anacostia road to the Center Market, which is now under construction, will also con- nect the central re of the city with the flourishing suburb of Anacostia and the sur- rounding country. AN ELABORATE SUBURBAN HOTEL. Plans for the building of a suburban hotel onarather extensive scale have been made and the preliminary stops to the formation of a stock company have already been taken, Col. Geo, Truesdell is at the head of this en- terprise. It is proposed to build a large hotel building on the site of the old Gales mansion in the suburb of Eckington. While the hotel is intended especially for the accommodation of those who are obliged to spend most of the summer in the city, yet it will be kept open the r around. It will be built ona model sug- d by the style of building in warm coun- and its main feature will be a large court The structure itself will have @ frontage of two or three hundred feet, with a corresponding depth, and the in- terior court, with its overhanging balconies, will be considerably larger in size than an or- dinary garden plot. The style of architecture will be in keeping with this tropical plan, and it is proposed to spend about €300,000 in the construction of the building, laying ont the grounds, &c. Washington is likely to have quite a notable addition to its present hotel tacilities. The Eckington electric road will run past the new hotel building and this rapid connection with the center of the city is one of the advantages which the projectors of the enterprise consider will make the place a fayor- ite resort. MR. WARDER'S BUSINESS IMPROVEMENTS. Messrs, Emmons & King havo begun the work of remodeling the building 421 1ith street for the owner, Mr. B. H. Warder. The principal feature of the changes in the present structure will be the addition of a large four- story back building. The front part will be changed so as to fit it for business purposes and when completed it will be occupied by Easton & Rupp. Mr. Warder will also have the building 425 10th street remodeled for business purposes. ‘The new building which he is having built at the southwest corner of llth and G_ streets is nearly completed. ‘The original plan was to carry the building up to a height of six stories. A change, however, has been made and an additional! story will be added, which will give the new building an imposing eleva- tion of seven stories, The construction of this building is what is known as slow burning, the laths being wire and the joists and other wood work being covered with fire proof paint, FINE RESIDENCES BEING BUILT. Three rather notable residences are about to be erected in this city. One will be built by Col. Henry Strong on the south side of K street between 16th and 17th streets, It will oveupy the entire frontage of the lot, which was tormerly a portion of the garden surround- ing the residence of the late Geo. W. Riggs. This ground has a frontage of 70 feet, and the house which Col. Strong proposes to crect will be aspecimen of the colonial style of archi- tecture, which is now gradually being intro- duced here. The material used in the con- struction will be buf brick and a light colored stone, and the plain lines and simple details, which aro the features of this style of archi- tecture, will be very effective treatment of such an imposing pile as this residence will be. Mr. W. Bruce Gray, tke architect, will have charge of the work. ‘The other two houses referred to are those that have been designed by Messrs, Hornblower & Marshall. — One will be located at the north- east corner of 20th and R streets, and will be built mainly of red brick. It will be » spa- cious house and will have lawns about it. The owner, Mr. George Fraser, who is at present in Europe, will occupy the house when com- an apartment house at the northwest corner of 1éth and K streets, It is proposed by the owner of this property, Mr. Geo. W. Cochran, to re- move the three residences which now occupy this site, including his own and the one recently occupied by Senator Gorman. In this way a building site will be —— which will ha ® fron’ of 72 feet on K street d a depth of about 135 feet. It is proposed that the new building shall occupy the entire lot and with its six stories it will be one of the largest buildings in this city designed for such s purpose. The material used in the construction will be brick and stone and the estimated cost of the build- ing alone will be €150,000. A K STREET IMPROVEMENT. Senator Sherman has under consideration plans for the erection of « handsome double residence adjoining his home on K street be- tween 18th and 14th streets. He is one of the large owners of property on that block and has done a great deal in maintaining « high class of improvements. His own residence, which he built, is a plain but very convenient and comfortable house. He became the owner of the house formerly the home of ex-Secretary Stanton and, having refitted it handsomely, he sold it to a wealthy gentleman, who now oc- cupies it, AN EXTENSIVE BUILDING ENTERPRISE has been decided upon which will add very much to the appearance of the vicinity of Gar- field Park, known as Reservation 17, in South- east Washington. The square where was lo- cated, until a few years ago, “Duddington,” the manor house of the old Carroll estate, has been sold, and it is the intention to build up the entire property with dwelling houses, This square, which is numbered 736, and is located between ist, 2d, E and F streets southeast, has been sold through F, H. Smith & Son, realestate brokers, to Mr. Archimedes Heckman, s wealthy resident of Philadelphia, After consultation with his agents here, and looking over the plans of houses which they had prepared for his inspection, Mr. Heckman decided to begin at once a comprehensive plan of improvements which will result in building op the entire square. He has approved the ans for 146 houses which were Peeperet BY ur GeorgegB. Phelps, architect, of this city, and the work of construction will begin at once, On two of its sides this square fronts on Garfield Park, which is now transformed into one of the handsome reservations with which this city nbounds, The now branch of the Anacostia railroad to the Center Market, which isnow being built, will extend along the E stroet front of the square. UNIQUE PHILADELPHIA IDEAS IX THE PLANS, The houses will be built by F. Douglass Heck- man and R. C. Ballinger, general contractors of Philadelphia, and will be unique in this city, as it is purposed to carry out various Philadelphia ideas which have never before been shown to a Washington public. There will be in all eight or ten groups of houses, each having a distinct architectural effect of its own, but making one harmonious whole. The interior arrangements will be good and the houses will bo finished in hard natural woods. One of the new ideas will be seen in the second-story chambers, where a Stationary wardrobe and washstand will cover newrly the whole side of aroom. This peculiar piece of stationary furniture is in reality two large wardrobes, each with its separate door, the one handsomely carved and the other a full length, bevel edge mirror ex- tending to the floor, between which isa marble wash-stand, with another large mirror in the pleted ‘as his permanent home. The other house will be located on the spacious building site adjoining the Dupont circle residence of Mr. Biaine. The owner, Miss Litchfield, who has spent one or two seasons in this city, in- tends this to be her home in the future, THE MAKING OF BRICKS. ‘The consumption of brick for building pur- poses im this city is increasing each year and this fact is corroborative of the figures fur- nished by the building inspector, which shows that the amount of building done is annually larger. The increased demand for bricks has been met by the various manufacturers by an increased output, but in spite of this fact the market is by no means over supplied. This con- dition of affairs recently induced a new brick making concern to engage in the manufacture here and their works across the river have been in operation since last sprit Now another brick company has recently been or- ganized by anumber of well-known business men of this city, with Mr. Albert Gleason as president, ‘The property known as the Ivy City race track has been purchased and the com- Pany, with a capital of €300.000, will be en- abled to put into operation an extensive plant The extension of the city streets through Eck- ington to the Brentwood road makes loca- tion especially a desirable one, as ‘the haul” will be close to the city. Inthe immediate ywinity are the extensive brick works of the Washington Brick Company and of Mr. Childs. The large amount of capital invested in the brick business ranks it as one of the most im- portant industries of the District and the su- perior grade of brick manufactured and the ability to fully supply the home market is gratifying to those who take a pride in local enterprises, A SEW APARTMENT moUsE. Plans have been prepared for the erection of rear. The top of the whole is handsomely carved, the cornice blending in with the gen- eral finishing of the room. Another new feat- ure will be in the heating, portable heaters ing largely used instead of latrobes. The houses will be 17 feet front and will have from six to ten rooms each; some will be two stories in height and some two stories and basement. ‘The selling price will be from $3,000 to 5,000 or a larger amount for the cor- ners, A new street will be opened up through the square from east to west and will be known as Heckman street. A HISTORIC SITE. ‘The site where these houses will be located is a historic one in the annals of this city, as Mr. Daniel Carroll, one of the original pro- prietors of the land, built the house which was one of the earliest, as well as one of the notable houses in the city. The old house remained in the possession of the Carrol family until about five yearsago, when it was sold to a syndicate for $55,000. The house was then taken down and the grounds about it, which were above grade, wore partially graded. ‘The property changed hands for a second time and the latter owners made the sale to Mr. Heckman, Since it has been decided to make these im- provements Mr. John F. Waggaman, the owner of square 735, adjoining the Carroll square on the north, has plans under consideration for “BEST WAY TO PROMOTE TRADE.” Another Letter From Secretary Blaine to Senator Frye on Reciprocity. Mr. Blaine has written another letter to Senator Frye on the subject of reciprocity. Following is the full text: Ban Hanson, Mr, July 22, Dram Ma, Fare: I have your reply to my letter and am glad that the essential part of it has been given to the press, You ask me what assurance I have to Spain's willingness to enter into reciprocal arrange- ments of trade with the United States, Your question surprises me, for you cannot have forgotten that only six years ago the prime minister of Spain, in his anxiety to secure free admission to our markets for the sugar of Cuba and Porto Rico, agreed to a very extensive treaty of reciprocity with Mr. John W. Foster, then our minister to Madrid. A year before—in 1883—a very admirablo ity was negotiated by Gen. treaty of reciproc: Grant and Mr. m. H. Trescott, as United States commissioners, with the at ee of Mexico—a treaty well considered in all its parts and all its details—whose results would, I be- lieve, have proved highly advantageous to both countries, In view of the pending discussion it isa somowhat singuisr circumstance that both these treaties of reciprocity failed to secure the approval of Congress, and failed for the ex- pross reason that both provided for the free admission of sugar. Congress would not then allow a single pound of sugar to come in free of duty under any circumstances whateve And now the proposition 1s to open our ports free to everybody's sugar, and to do it with such rapidity that we are not to have ® mo- ment’ we cannot make a better trade—a trade by which we may pay for at least a part of the sugar in the products of American farms and shop: Our change of opinion has certainly been remarkable in so brief @ period. Indeed, the only danger of our not securing advantageous treaties of reciprocity now is the possible be- lief on the part of those countries that we are 80 anxious for free sugar that by patient wait- ing they can securo all they desire without money and without price. Fearing that result I sought an interview with the cight republican members of the com- mittee on wi and means more than five months ago—to be exact, on the 10th day of last February, I endeavored to convince them that it would be expedient and wise to leave to the President, as the treaty-making power, an opportunity to see what advantageous ar- rangements for reciprocal trade could be effected, Iwas unable to persuade the com- mittee totake my view. I mention this cir- cumstance now because it has been charged in many quarters that the suggestion for reciproc- ity came too late, Iu fact my effort was made before the tariff bill was reported to the House or even framed in committee. It is, Ithink, a very grave mistake to oppose this reciprocal proposition touching sugar from the fear that it may conflict in some way with the pol of protection. The danger is, I think, in the opposite direction, Let us see what is peopoeed Our government has hereto- fore collected a heavy duty from sugar— amotnting one year, in the aggregate, to $58,000,090, and averaging $50,000,000 per an- num for a considerable period. We wish now to cheapen sugar by removing this duty, The value of the sugar we annually consume is enormous. Shall we pay for it all in cash or ail we seek a reciprocal arrangement by which a large part of it may be paid for in pork and beef aud flour, in lumber aud salt and iron, in shoes and calico and furniture and a thou- sand other things? In short, shall we pay for it allin cash, or try peenaly barter in part? I think the latter mode is the highest form of protection, and the best way to promote trade, T address this note to you, as 1 did my first, because you have taken‘an activeand most telligent interest in the increase of our trade with Soutin America, When shall we enlarge our commercial intercourse with that great continent if we do not now make @ beginning? If we now give away the duty on sugar, as we lave already given away the duties on coffee and hides and rubber, and get nothing in ex- change which shall be profitable to the farm or the factory in the United States what shall be our justification for the policy? You have recently received congratulations, in which I cordially join, on carrying the ship- Ping bill through the Senate. Do you think that a line of ships, generously aided by the government, will have a better prospect for profit and for permanence if we can give to them outward cargoes from the United States, and notconfine them to inward cargoes from Latin-America? 1am sincerely yours, the erection of houses which will cover the en- tire square, —_—.____ THE JUDGE TO LEAVE US. A Well-Known Personage to Resume a Brilliant Diplomatic Career. Judge W. G. Riley of Virginia, who was appointed consul at Puerta Cabelo, Venezuela, yesterday, is theoriginal “Judge,” who is the pride of all the “judges” and the “majors” and the “‘coionels” about Washington. He isa “gentleman, by gad, sir,” of good education and a remarkable gift of language and fertility of imagination. He is the clevereststory teller of all the “judges,” “majors” and “colonels,” Few frequent visitors to Washington, if they stop at first-class hotels, have failed to make the acquaintance of the loquacious judge from Accomack, He is a most ingenious story teller, and most of the “judge and major” stories that have gone out from Washington have related in part to him, DIPLOMATIC EXPERIENCE IN AFRICA, This is not his first appointment to the con- sular service, He held a commission under President Grant, who sent him to some little consulate on the east coast of Africa, When the judge left for this post of duty it was thought that he would not again return. The “majors” and the “colonels” bade him a teur- ful farewell. But neither the fever that lurks in the swamps nor the savages down by the sea were a match for the judge. In the due course of time he returned to his native land, and one day he appeared suddenly in the hotel lobby to the great joy of the “majors” and “colonels.” He had added many stories to his fine assortment and the suavity of a diplomat to his manners. Since then he has been re- garded asa lawyer, ascholar and a diplomat. Everybody knows the judge, and there will not be « word said against his appointment by any appreciative citizen, NFARLY PROVOKED A WAR. It is said that he caine near causing war be- tween this country and the savages of Africa where he was formerly stationed, but any one will agree that he was justifiable in what he did. Asthe story goes, and it is believed to be a matter of official record at the State Depart- ment, the consulate was situated on the beach, with a broad stretch of sand in front of the house extending to the waters. Here the judge lived with his wife, and while he did not tiud the nation to whom he was accredited to ussess those social q' ies so pleasing to the ears he found it possible to tolerate his posi- tiou as long as the savage citizens let him alone. But every morning the whole village came down on the beach in front of his house to make their toilet, It was disagreeable for the judge and his wife to have these naked citizens squatting about in front of his door, and he made many protests against it. he protests were made formally in writing to the prime minister and the queen, but there was no at- tention paid to ‘them. Finally the judge could stand it no longer. He got a gun and loaded it with the finest ‘mustard seed” shot and lay in wait, One morning was heard the report of a gun and a number of naked negroes scattered in many directions with frightened cries. Later in the day a delegation of digni- taries, headed by the prime minister, waited a to make a formal declaration of the United States and to give the judge notice *‘to git.” The judge protested, most eloquently argu- ing his case, but it was of no avail, “I shall appeal to the queen,” he declared. ‘The prime minister shook his head and looked solemn. ‘It was the queen (pe shot,” he said. The shot were small and settled in fleshy parts, so that the queen rapidly Tecovered and the judgo’s diplomacy soon placed him in fayor again. ‘There is no doubt about the judge's confirma- tion and he will very creditably represent his country at this new post. He hasserveda term as consul near where he is now assigned. He gots his title of judge through being judge of common pleas in his county. He is a good campaigner and has held several elective offices at the hands of his people. Gov. Beaver has appointed George R. Snow- den to be mann, general st the Pennsylvania national guard, Gen. John F. Hartranft, deceased, and Robert P. Dechert to be briga- dier general of the first brifade. Both are prominent democrats, A mass of pure, compact rock salt, said to contain 90,000,000 tons of the mineral, is located on an island 185 feet high which rises from a sea on the route from Brashear to New Iberia, up the river Teche in Louisiana, Piao 8 good deal in a bizarre name some- es, A Boston man is selling great — ties of “cool Bal lemonade,” though why “‘Babylonish” lemonade is especially eg sirable is past finding out , James G.

The medium is » woman forty Years of age who has lost her reason, and it is therefore believed she is acting unconsciously upon her victim, a young lady of about twenty summers, The two are neighbors, living on opposite sides of the same street, and it ap- pears that some two months ago, when the medium was taken ill, the young woman waited upon her, until at last she could not stay away, aud was constantly running across the road to the house, The young woman became so infatuated in this particular that one night t known to the people of the house, she stayed all night, and when an attempt was made to arouse her in the morning it was found impos- sible. Her body was pinched and even a needle had no effect. Walking her on the floor was also tried without success. She was in a state of lethargy from which all the efforts of the neighbors could not awaken her, and a doctor was summoned. His skill was at last success- ful, after she had slept about twenty-four hours. At is said that if the medium was not a crazy person she could have aroused the laay from the stupor or else have foliowed up the work with suggestions to her victim’s mind; but she was unconscious of anything wrong apparently. ‘The girl says she knows nothing of what goes on when under this wonderful influence. She experienced nopain of any description when bemg pinched. She had been several times put to sleep, but not for such long periods as the one mentioned. ‘The subject of this power is in fair health otherwise and also very intelli- ent, : At present she is under tho care of friends constantly and is kept perfectly quiet. It is expected that she will be able to throw off the medium this time, but severe shock te her nervous system is almost sure to cause a relapse she will always in future be kept away from mesmeric influence: 01 si tee PRINCE GEORGE NOT COMING. The Scion of Royalty Will Not be On Exhibition at Newport. Mr. Ward McAllister’s great breakfast at Newport, in honor of royalty, will be like play- ing “Hamlet” without the Prince of Denmark, for Prince George, second son of the Prince of Wales, will not be there. It is now learned definitely that the prince is not coming, for his ship, the Thrush, will not accompany Admiral Watson and the Bellerophon to Newport This information is otis. A very large number of entertainments had been arranged for the young man, but they were entirely unauthor- ized, for no report has ever been officially re- ceived that the prince was coming at all. When the facts becomo known among the cottagers there will be intense disappointment and the coming of jolly old Admiral Watson will not be an offset to it, Neverthel some yery elaborate entertainments will be given in his honor. o0-—______ A “Shamming” Patient.

De Barros, a citizen of Brazil, who has re- cently been traveling through the northern part of that country, said yesterday in New York that he was much impressed with the ebange of feeling of the people of Brazil. One result was the great interest of Brazilians in the people of the United States. Formerly the trend of Brazilians was all in the direction of England and the continent. Republican feel- ing and the Pan-American congress, coupled with Portugal's trouble with England, made Brazilians anxious to buy American goods. The merchants there @desired reciprocity. The problem to be solved was the question of the price, the terms of which included the bank- ing facilities and credit, and the time, which included transportation. In the element of Price there were many elements besides the actual cost. By reciprocity Bruzil’s capacity to buy would be increased, and the United States was the only country which could give this increased power of purchaso to Brazil. The United States consumes two-thirds of her rubber and coffee. Free trade with the United States would not be possible, because Brazil depends on her custom house for her revenue. But she could give reductions in duti sugar given by the United States. Enormous ‘The st are most important, At Europe enters into our trade and operates Sgainst American goods. Better transportation facilities should be had, but most important of l is reciprocity, Manufacturers of cotton, leather, wood, iron and steel, and farmers, by the sale of herd stuffs, would be benefited. Then the present temper of the Braziliaus, be- cause of feeliug against England, affords a wonderful opportunity to this country. Throw- ing this great market away will be bitterly repented. ————-9e—_______ FLIGHT FROM A BURNING HOUSE, A Family Escape Down a Tree Clad Only in Their Night Clothes. At 4 o'clock yesterday morning tho residence and grocery store of W. A. Carpenter and the cigar store adjoining, belonging to Thomas Finegan, at Pennsville, Pa. were totally de- stroyed by fire, Mr. Carpenter's store and idence are in the same building. Mrs, Car- penter hoard a noise overhead and awakened her husband, who noticed flames in the entry. He immediately Jumped up and pulled his wife through the flames to a window overlooking a shed and carried his children to the same place, from whence they reached the ground by climbing down a willow tree.

New York lawyers assert that Mr. John FE. Parsons received a fee of $250,000 from the sugar trust people, which is the largest single fee ever paid in that city. Mr. Parsons for this fee was to create the trust, and it was thought he would bo able so to create it that the courts could not break it. The fee was big, but so was the undertaking. He got the fee, but the sugar people only got their trust long enough for the court to pass upon it, and then they lost it. ————+e+ _______ Ex-Gov. Waller’s Declination. Ex-Gov. Tom Waller of Connecticut bas just returned to New York from a visit to his home in New London. While there he was asked if he would accept the democratic nomination for governor. He has bluntly refused to do so, but in Connecticut they think he spoke with a mental reservation. There is no mental reser- vation in the governor's mind, however, He has just opened law offices on Wall street and has a rather important English clientage which is worth » good deal more to him than the gov- ernorship. The governor, however, did not say whether he would accept the Senatorship of Connecticut in case the democrats carry the legislature. Tried to Burn Her Husban4.

Although the Party is Small There is Enough of it to Squabblo. Geo. 0.

Vice Chancellor Pitney granted a decree of divorce yesterday at Franklin, N. J., to Mary Hughes, the New Brunswick girl who was kid- napped last fall by John Fouratte, and who was compelled, according to her story, to marry his son James. Mary was only sixteen years old at the time, and is the daughter of Richard W. Hughes. On October 29 iast she started to go to New York, not asking per- mission of her parents. When she reached the railroad station at Steelton, finding she had not enough money to go to New York, she thought she would walk to a friend’s house not far away and stay till morning. She rurned the wrong way and became lost in the woods, After wandering about for a long time she finally reached « little hut in which lived John Fouratte and wife. She remained there all night, but they would not let her depart the following morning, so she said. but kept her a close prisoner for two On the night of November 12 the old man compelled her to go with him to the Rari- tan river and to embark ina row boat. They drifted and rowed down the stream until morn- ing, when they landed near Kaeisherville, Staten Island, where James Fouratte, a son of the old man, lived alone inasmall hut. There the girl was taken in spite of her protestation, Afterseveral days had passed James took her for a walk one evening. He told her, after they had been walking some distance, that they were going to a minister’ married, and when she protested he threatened her with a revolver and her promise that she would say she was nineteen years of age. They were married in the presence of two women whom she didnot know. Fouratte was thirty-five years of age. Mary was then taken back to the cabin and was forced to live with Fouratte until December 2, when she was rescued by her father and a detective. These facts mre set forth in the billof complaint and were given by the girl in her testimony. She prayed for a divorce and the decree has been accordingly issued. —_——ee____ Another Chapter of the Cronin Case. Judge Collins in Chicago yesterday set aside the forfeiture of the $10,000 bond given by John Graham, who was charged with being im- plicated in an attempt to bribe members of the jury before whom the five men were tried for the murder of Dr. P.H. Cronin. The judge held that Dr. Graham had been taken from the custody of his bondsmen when after a few days he was rearrested on a second indictment upon the same charge. Judge Collins post- poned decision on the question of forfeiting the bond of $5,000 given by Mr. Graham after the second arrest. It was contended by Mr. Graham's attorneys that the law permits a per- son charged with conspiracy to be represented in court by his lawyer, the defendant in person not being essential. soe A Heroic Woman. From the Minneapolis Tribune. While ail others at Kohlman’s Lake last Sun- day evening were distracted with grief and shock by the disaster wrought by the tornado Mrs. Eachus, wife of Dr. Eachus, preserved her presence of mind with extraordinary for! tude. Her mother and her brother dead, she did not allow her grief to interrupt her tutir- ing efforts to assuage the sufferings of the others. The hotel, which had been turned into a hospital, was the scene of her heroic work. She labored all night ministering to the wants of the wounded, wresicg, | those who had lost friends and relatives, despite hers was the deepest grief of any. Her devotion was wonderful. The surgeons found her skilled and of the greatest benefit and the afflicted are earnest in sounding praises of her noble work, her care for the suffering people an her tact in ministering to the wants of the wounded and cheering up the despondent, All this while her heart was breaking, for more than any one else was she bereft. Nor had she escaped injury. She had been ruthlessly tossed by the , cut and bruised until she suffered untold pain, Her name should be recorded with the of the world, ———-- 200 The school board of Shippensburg, Pu., has ay ree gael —. for cee prredien Sed free text stationery and o' For this purpose one mili has been added to the school tax.
