The excuse Cleveland is offering for his absence from -public occasions that the duties of his office as governor require his presence in Albany. Yet he could neglect those duties for six weeks while he went up in the moun tains. The truth is his managers have learned that he is not a safe man to trust before the people because lie has no idear to express in a public speech and cannot even affect a wisdom he does not possess.

There is considerable difficulty getting the Democratic speakers and newspapers to discuss the issues of the year. Mr. Johnson made an effort for a discussion with Mr. Lamb, and Mr. Gannon tried very hard to get General Black into a joint debate, but both efforts were fruitless. Likewise the Gazette of this city (weekly edition "Ind.," daily edition "Dem,") can not be prevailed upon to let its readers "ree 'M

To keep Cleveland from dropping out of public view altogether, the Associated Press sends word that yesterday I he was called upon by a Louisiana bishop, a Reverend Mr. Battershall, of I Albany, a Mr. Aldrich, of New York and a Mr. Red field, of Chicago. In the course of time people may in this manner become acquainted with the man who to-day has the repu tation of having cut a broader swath with smaller sickle than any man ever before the people of this country.

The Express endeavors to make a point by calling attention to the fact which the publishers of this paper had overlooked, if, in deed, they had ever noticed at all how the paper was quoted, that in Ayer & Bon's newspaper directory, the daily Gazette is put down as Democratic in politics and the weekly as independent. No such information having been published by the publishers of this paper the statement is a palpable orror on the part of the usually accurate compiler of Ayer's directory, and should have been noticed and corrected in this office.

Indeed, we were not trying to make a point. We were simply indulging a bit of fun. Of course it was a palpable error. Everybody knows that both weekly and daily should have been put down as Independent.

'Men who favor a continuance ot I protection will vote for Butler or for Blaine the only hope for electing Mr. Cleveland is in getting for him the votes of those who favor revenue reform" says the Courier-Journal and then explains its idea of revenue reform as being "on the line laid down by Mr. Morrison." Tbis is the doctrine of the Democratic party. It is the doctrine that lies at the bottom of John Lamb's talk about the tariff on sugar. He can deny hiB adlierance to the Morrison bill but his vote for it and the whole tenor of his discussion

'A Nihilist's Terrible Girlhood. Manchester Courier. The girl Maria Kaloojny, who so daringly attempted the ?morder of the chief of the Odessa police the other day seems to havq been closely associated with, if she does not herself belong to, the inner circles of the Nihilist conspiracy. Her brother was accused in 1879, when he was a midshipman in the Black sea fleet, of having supplied dynamite to the men who attempted tn assassinate the late Emperor by explosions at Odessa and on the railway near Alexandroff, -and was convicted and sent to Siberia. He escaped tbence, but Only to be captured again by the late Col. Soudaikin, at a Nihilist dynamite depot. He was then sentenced to death, but his sentence was commuted to the more terrible punisbmentof hard labor for life in the mines. His sister, in 1882, was found living, with aft Is passport, as cook at Odessa, in the house of the notorious Degaieff, who, having oeen captured by Soudaikin, was. spared by the latter to become, as the wily chief of police believed, a useful tool in his hands, but in truth, to be Soudaikin's m»iderer. The girl herself, who is barely nineteen, was shut up for ten months in the Fortress at St. Peter and St. Paul. She has since been at Odessa, making a wretched livelihood by teaching, and under police supervision, from which she has frequently asked to be relieved, so that she might return home. J3he was visiting the chief of the Odessa police, ostensibly in order to renew this request, when she attempted his life. It would be hardly possible to imagine a mor^ terrible story of a girlhood.

A. Champion Dyclone Story. Savannah Morning News. During a recent tornado1'4 ill Kich land, Ky., a farmer's wife was in this summer kitchen preparing supper, and her daughter was in the dining room setting the table. As the wind struck the house the, currents divided. One carried the kitchen two miles to an adjoining county, and the other deposited the main part of the house half :a mile in the opposite direction. By a strange freak of nature both houses were picked up by the returning current and set back directly in their former places, as neatly as if the work had been done by hand. The women were so busy engrossed in their work that they did not notice that anything unusual happened until their attention had been called to a crack in the roof. rt'-'a: •. A Mighty Mean Man,, New York Sun. "Yes," eaid young Hardu^), with an air of disgust, "there are some mighty mean men in the world, but qld Moneybags is a little bit lower down than anybody I know of." "What has Moneybags done that is so very mean "You know I worship his daughter?" "I have heard you say so." "Yes, I love the very ground she walks on. Well, sir, I asked the old fellow for her hand the other day and he waB mean enough to ask me if I had a sufficient income to support her. What do you think of that for a man worth over $2,000,000?"

persuasiveness in vain, liberated the fellow by force. The Paris courts have at last taken up the subject of the sale of reckless books. Many dealers seem to have fancied that because a publication is beautifully printed and the pictures are by artists of talent, the offense of selling would go unpunished. But a verdict rendered against one of these merchants is severe. He was sentenced to several month's imprisonment and a heavy fine.
