Emperor William assures his subjects that calling out an army of 70,000 thor ougbly disciplined men does not mean war, and is done only for the purpose of letting them become accustomed to the new arras with which they have been provided. In short, it is something like one of our own Fourth of July parades. France, however, takes another view of the matter.
It is not generally knewn that the Hoosier capital has been enjoying a boom for the past year. Its clearances exceeded those of Toledo, Cleveland, Minneapolis and other large cities—by several millions. It has recovered from the effects of the disastrous real estate speculations, and the bank failures that paralyzed trade for several years, and under sound ^Republican rule may yet rival Terre Haute in enterprise and solid, substantial prosperity.
Secretary Bayard very naturally op1 poses the fishery retaliation bill and wants to kill it if he can. Nothing else couid be expected Mr. Bayard is wholly in sympathy with the administration, and its course has been characterized by cowardice and lack of deter carnation th^t will be its everlasting d.isgrace. Anything like disapproval from the secretary of state would be too elating a contrast to the knock-kneed poller advcc^vied by Mr. Cleveland and might be construed as effeusive partiaanship. _______________
Last fall the United States captured several British schooners in Alaskan waters, for seal fishing. That old fossi} known as the secretary of state, who has always been afflicted with love for everything that is English, will order the vessels returned to their owners, cn the ground that they were unlawfully seized, and that their owners be indemnified. What will retaliatory measures amount to with such a man as Bayard as secretary of state? Perhaps it would not be out of place to have only men who?e loyalty has never been questioned on guard at each times as these.

Why Dakota Is Kept Oui.
St. Louis G1 )ba-Democrat. The people of Dakota paid out 8691 ,• 000 last year for the services of teachers in their public schools, and the present value ol their echool property is nearly $20,000,003. This proves that Dakota places a proper estimate upon the value of popular intelligence and it shows at the satne time why the Democratic party is so obstinately opposed to the admission of that enterprising and prosperous territory as a state.

THE LEGISL ATURE.
Senator Elected.—Fen Pictaros of Several Ueiubers.
:Sv-j
Special Dispatch the Express. INDIAKAPOUS, January 31.—The joint
convention assembled at noon to-day
and took another ballot for senator. The result was, Turpe 14, Harrison 10
and Allen 4. Many of the member? who went home toepend Sunday had not
yet returned and together with the
numerous pairs in both houses, the scn&li
vote is accounted for. There is nolhir new in tLv! situation, and the iudicntif
are that the deadlock will continue
through the week. GOSSIP ABOUT OUH LAW MAKERS. The personel of this legislature is above the average. There are no men in it very especially marked for ability, but they average well. In the senate there are some excellent lawyers, and a few in the house. Nearly all the professions and, trades are represented in each house, and by the drift of their wants as manifested in their speeches one can tell what each does at home in the way of business.
The most distinguished looking man in the house is the Hon. John Caven, one of the fine members from Marion. In personal appearavce he very much resembles Colonel Robert N. Hudson, though a little taller than the latter. He is a bachelor, and an ardent Scotchman. Mr. Caven has been mayor of Indianapolis several times, and served the city with honor to himself and credit to the city. The salary of a legislator is no object to him. for he is "well ofi." He is chairman of the committee on ways and means, and is, therelore, the right man in the right place.
Senator Winter, of Marion, is not a big man physically, but his mentality makes up for any deficiency in size, except that he wears his hair short, he looks like Mr. Freeman, whom I remember as the Opera house jeweler. Mr. Winter is a lawyer by profession, and a good one. He is serving his second session as senator, and his experience is very valuable to him and the senate.
President Smith, of the senate, reminds you, at first glance of Dan Faeig,
but acquaintance soon shows thht there the resemblance ceases, for Dan is a much more coui teous and graceful mannered man than the president of the senate, Smith's roughness and coarseness and ignorance of grammar has become so familiar to all in the senate that more leniency is extended him now than at first.
Eugene Debs has bis double here in the person of Mr. Foster, representative from Madison county. Mr. Foster is youisg, smooth-faced, &nd develops moie strength in debate than would be expected oi. bim He i3 a lawyer by profession, and has only been a citizen of Madison county seven yean.
The youngest member of the house it Mr. Shambaugh, of Allen county. Two peas never looked more alike than he and Billy Clark. He is rendy-spoken and an affable gentleman. B=ins in the society period of life, he is popular with the young people here, and after the cares of state are laid aside it is his wont to put himself in full dress and attend the numerous social gatherings to which he 13 invited.
Another of the young members is Mr. Brown, of Henry county. If Jim Hunter should come into the house some day and drop into Mr. Brown's seat he could vote without fear of molestation, as no one could tell them apart, by 6impiy looking at them. So far Mr. Brown has not assayed oratory, but tiss contented himself with the ntore arduous work of the committee of which he is a member.
Nick Filbeck's counterpart is here in the person of Senator Sellers, of White couaty. The senator is not a German, bat in personal appearance he resembles your ex-postmaater very much, and he has all of that gentleman's tenacity and persistence when he makes up his mind to accomplish purpose. It is no won der then that he is successful in almost evything he undertakes
The Apollo Belvider of the senate, in stature and gracefulness, is Senator Trippett. Jake Early needn't get huffy when I say that the two look very much alike, neither should the senator. His bearing is that of a cultured gentleman and he is a special favorite with his fel low senators.
Charley Jewett, the gentleman from Floyd, and speaker of the last bouse, may want to know who wrote this letter, when he reads that I say that he looks like Ben Havens, and threaten aonihila tioo, but I can't help it, for the two look alike. Stick to the old newspaper rule and withhold my name. Mr. Jewe. is the Democratic leader of the house, and is appropriately so, He is a born leader —at all events he was born, and the caucus made him a leader.
The gentleman from Kipley is Mr. Summan, who is about the size of S. Baker, but who has a voice like a steam boat whistle, and when he responds "David Turpie" at the joint convention you can hear the annunciator out in the elevator ring. Mr. Summan is the largest land owner in Ripley county, and don't cata a continental about his per diem. He is having a good time this winter, and is not very particular whether school keeps or not.
Speaker Sayer has proven that the Republicans did not make a mistake in promoting him from the floor to the rostrum, for he has acquitted himself admirably. Perhaps the only mistake he has uiade was in joining in the late lamented "compromise," but surely he has given no cause for complaint from his party friends in presiding over the house or in performing the functions devolved upon him in the joint conven tion. I am at a loss to point out auy citizen of Terre Haute who resembles the speaker in personal appearance, for as I remember there is not as homelv a man in all the state of Terre Haute.
Mr. Johnson, of Wayne, is the most frequent and valuable speaker in th senate. On this account he has not the in fiuence his ability warrants.
Brannermau, the man to whom was given Senator McDonald's seat, is pitiable object. The Democrats have little respect for him and the Bepubli cans don recognize him.
Senator Bailey is in the nature of a prompter for Green Smith. 8enator Fowler on the Democratic side and Senator Campbell on the Republican side seem to be the most "honesttst" in their legislative intentions.
The millionaire of the senate is Huston, of Fayette. Senator Thompson, of Marion, has been a senator twice, first as a Reppblican and now as a Democrat.
Senator McDonald used to be known as the "Wild Man of Whitley," but he is fast acquiring town ways.
Everybody knows that the best remedy known for coughs, colds etc., is Dr. Ball's Cough Syrnp.
The Progress of "Reform."
Cleveland Leader. At first President Cleveland removed officials with great ceremony and with
an =flects!i^n of reform. Gradually the manner of dispatching officials has lost its gravity, and it is now no trouble for the pretender to turn out the trusted and turn in the hungry. At the present rate of increase in number of removals it will not take the entire four years to have every Republican out of office, as was at first estimated. If any remain when three years have elapsed it will be a matter of surprise.
BRIGHAM YOUNG ALIVE.
The Head of the Mocraon Church in Hiding. LINCOLN,
Neb., January 31.—Two
miles ?outh of this cit? 6tr.nds a palatial residence owned by an English gentleman long since identified with the Mormon Church. The residence has been unlenated for the last two years, save by an old Fervant man named White, who at one time was connected with the Jezrels of London, a sect similar to the Mormons. White claims he was defrauded by them out. of his property, and latterly bscaKie converted to the Mormon faith. He was considered a trustworthy man, and was, therefore, partially through necessity, taken into the confidence of the leaders of the Mormon Church of Xion, which, according to his statements, is about to perpetrate a fraud to which he is unwilling to become a party. He says: "Two months ago there arrived at the mansion an old gentleman bearing letters fiom my master in London, the purport of which v, as to obey his every wish and to keep his presence a secret to all except those to whom he saw fit to reveal himself. Within a week persons began to arrive at the house in twos and threes They were from Salt Lake City, and held long, whispeed consultations with my mysterious guest. At first I did not care who or what he was, until little by little I gathered from stray remarks that he was a person of note, and toon after the truth burst upon me that be is none other than Brigham Young, the great prophet of our church, who is to apparently be resurected from the dead and preach to Hie people of Zion as one having returned from the grf-ve to tell what lies beyond. That hh death and burial were a deception will soon be seen by the whole world.
HE WAS THERE,
A Had Old Man Who Improved His Opportunity, tt Was not ".Bear Pa." It was dark in the depot one day in December when the evening train came in. An elderly farmer was backed yp against the partition, w&tohing in open mouihed wonder the big puffing engine and the yeliow cars »s they discharged their passengers, when a handsome young girl in a selskin cloak dashed for nard, iand, throwing herself upon the honest granger's manly breast, imprinted a kiss on his sunburned cheek and ex claimed: "You dear old pa, I knew you would be waiting for me! And how's mother and how's John? and, oh I I'm so glad to get back—and where's my trunk and, oh! pa, you take the trunk and let's hurry."
Tue granger was old and dried up. and he had never known what it was to have a wife, much less a daughter. He mistrusted the young lady iu the sealskin cloak had made a mistake, but instead of stammering and humming and hawing, he came gallantly up to the scratch, and, throwing both arms around the fair creature, he made up his mind to be a father to her or die in the attempt. Impressing a kiss, liko the re port of a piSio', on ner cheek, he enthusiislically ejaculated "Oh, yer another's well, an' John, an' Henry, an' (smack) an' Jane, an' Susan isuiack, smack), an' Horace, an'Bslindy, an' Calvin (smack) oh, they're all mart and hearty, an'—
By the time the young lady's friend's ould get to her she had slid into a btone faint and they had to lug her home in a hack, while the aged granger as he finished the third round with her outraged ycung man and sauntered out of the depot, leaving him with a black eye and a ruptured coat, chucklcd to himself:
The old man's petting old an' stiff an' carelc-ES like, but when any young females want to piav any games o' Copenhagen, they'll find bim right to time—and I shouldn't be s'priseu If it rained 'fore 9 o'clock. G'lang, Kate!"

uuii will ouuu uc Been uy iiie wuuie wuriu. 1^1 lwhile thousands of his ignorant believersf^
bow at his feet, and he dictates to them their ways of lile. My guest's visitors are men oi high standing, as their ap pearance indicates, and it was in conversation with one of them who sup posed from the way I talked that I knew all that my suspicions were veri fied, only my informant said Brigham Young had risen from his grave in Salt Lake City and was instructing his disciples here in order to prepare the people for the great event of his coming, My only reason for telling these facts is that 1 am an old man with but little to gain in this world, and do net want to see a people deluded as I have beeu. The Jezre's absorbed ray compc-tence, and now the Mormons have broken my faith."
The old man told the story with a sincerity that warranted further investigation, and a merchant who formerly did business in Suit Lake City drove out to the mansion this afternoon snrt rapped at the door. Receiving no response he started around the house to apply at the rear, when through a bay-window he saw the form and features of an old man who sat eiijovisig a sun-bath. As he was unaware of his piesencs the merchant approached to within a few feet of the window, scanning thi old man's face closely, and stepping back immediately pronoucced the man to be Brigham Young, whose marked features he had often studied in Salt Lake City, which onco seen, be says, can never be forgotten. For a few moments the figure sat silently, then raised his hand in a wearied way to his brow, revealing a scar about the wrist that still further establishes his identity,
It is a well-known fact that the elders of the Mormon Church throughout Utah and Arizona have of la.e been preaching the return of the Prophet. Thi?, together with thfi fucts that it was claimed by a St. Louis man some months ago that Young was seen and recognized in London, that a numbsr of prominent Mormons from Salt Lake City have lately been seen upon the streets of Lincoln, that important legislation is about to be enacted to the detriment of the Mormou Church, and the veil of mystery with which the prophet's death has always been shrouded, makes it almost certain that the Mormon banners throughout Utah will soon be unfurled, announcing that "He is risen."
January
31—Word
reached police headquarters at 3 o'clock this morning tbat Raymond Belmont, Bon of August Belmont, a well known banker, had shot himself. The police immediately sent for the coroner to go to the house. Young Belmont, with his father lived at No. 109
Fifth avenue,
and was associated with the Belmont banking house. Last evening Raymond Belmont went out to dinner. He returned shortly before 1 o'clock this morning. With him was Leonard Behr, a night watchman, with whom young Raymond was well acquainted and who frequently accompanied him home. Together they wont down to the basement where there wss a shooting gallery in which young Belmont, who was a very expert shot* frequently practiced. Here he also had a etock of revolvers and guns. As they entered "the room, young Bzlmont picked up a double-acting, Smith & Wesson, pearl-handled revolver of 32 calibre, and turning to Behr, said: "Now, I want you to go and hold up a gold collar-button in your hand, and I will shoot it out."
Behr 'who had frequently seen the young man shoot and had great confidence in him, agreed to do this. Before taking up his position, however, young Belmont turned to him and said: "First close all the doors so tht^ the report may not alarm father who is up stairs."
Thereupon Behr walked over to the door and had just put his hand upon it when he heard the report of the pistol. Turning he saw young Belmont falling to,the floor, the blood gushing from a wound in the right side of his head. "My God, Raymond," he cried, "what have you done." He leaned over the young man who
tQ c- not^ As Beh
looked at him be closed his eyes and became unconscious.
Behr then aroused Angnst Belmont, the young man's father, who was alone in the house. The watchman, was sent for Dr. Polk, the family physician, and in a few moments he was at the young man's bedside with two other physicians. They tried to resuscitate young Belmont, but failed. He died soon after the bullet entered his brain.
Coroner Erdman and his depnlv arrived before the doctors left. They found that the bullet had passed clear through the skull, entering the right side oi the head and coming ont at the left. The watchman eaid the Lhooting was accidental, but the coroner said alt the indications pointed to suicide. It was evident that young Belmont had taken considerable wine with his dinner. Sergeant Scbmittberger, of the Nineteenth precinct, went to the house with a policeman. At first they intended to put the fiighlened watchman under arrest, tout finally concluded to let him alone.
Mrs. Belmont is in Washington with Congressman Perry Belmont. She was notified by telegraph this morning.
A TIMELY DISCOVERY.
An Alleged Auaichist Pint t» Save Spies and Others From Death on tho Gallows.
CHICAGO,
January
31.—Police
Captain
Schaack, in an interview, admitted that he had been for over a fortnight investigating what appeared to be an Anarchist plot to save Spies and his fellow-conspira-tors from death on the gallows. Within a month there h?.s been a marked revival of interest in the anarchist meetings in thi? citv, and the efici ts of the police to keep track of their proceedings bave redoubled. As a result, Captain Schaack came into possession of a drawing which was recognissd as the basement plan of the jail and criminal court building. It was accurate in every particular. Even the sewers and waste-pipes were located. Basement plans of the buildings on Clark street, fxtending to the jail JJ alley, were »1SQ shown. From certain oi these buildings lines were drawn which met in the center of the jail yard.
Investigation showed that the basements indicated were those for rent, or of which the leases could be purchased. Captain Schaack's inquiries led to the theory that the lines centering in the jail yard repreeented possible or projected tunnels. Negotiations had been entered into for the lease of one basement by p-ospeciive shoe dealers, who stipulated for the di vision of the basement by a close parti tion separating the front from the back. Boxes were to be delivered and taken from the rear entrance. A close watch has been kept, but without result, and hopes of capturing the conspirators have been abandoned. Captain Schaack believes that the design w?a to cheat the gallows by blowing up the condemned anarchists, and with them the officers delegated to conduct the execution. If tunnels were designed to enable the anarchists to escape, the lines would not reach the jail yard, but rather to the jail itself.
SUTHERLAND WEALTH.
The Honses and Lands That Belong to an EnelUh Duke. Philadelphia Press.
The people of the United Stfetes ought to be particularly interested in the Duke of Sutherland for other reasons than the mere fact of his being a noble duke. Not only is he a large landholder in England, but he is one of the largest alien landowners in the United States, his possessions aggregating", according to the Roman almanac, 425,000 acres in this country. The landed possessions of the Duke of Sutherland in England and Scotland cover 1,358,545 acres, yielding him an income of $708,325 besides he has $1,500,000 invested in the Northern Scotch railroad. He is the owner of Dunrobin castle, Lcch Invei house, House of Tongue, Tarbet hous?. Castle Leed, oil in Scotland and Stafford house. St. James Bsrk, Trer.tham ball, in Staffordshire Littleshnll hail in Shropshire, and Cliefden iu Bucks. The duke himself is 59 years of age, and hia wife, who is not with him, is 58. She is peeress in her own right, and, I am told, a very handsome woman. The Dutches of Southerland is a Cromartie, and was mistress of the robes, whatever that may be.
Sensible Suggestion,
Qaiacy Whig. If the medicine adminis'ratered to the eight condemned men iu the Cook county jail was accorded to a few others of the same stripe it might have a wholesome effect in increasing their respect for the rights of others.
Wntterson Talks.
later Ocean. Henry Watterson says he has seen Washington under ten administrations, and never dreamed that such arrogance «nd insolence as now prevails there were
possible. He would not, as a salf-re-specting man, venture to enter anydtpartment where he was not personally known. This must be the JeSersonian simplicity Mr. Watterson boasted of having sent to Washinton two vears ago.
STATE PRESS.
South Bend Tribune: The attention of the various state legislatures which! are now considering the bist method of dealing with the liquor queetion is in-1 vited to the merits of high license and: local option.
Anderson Herald: If the editors of Indiana Democratic newspapers truly reflect the sentiments of their party upon the subject of civil service reform, then it is cteir that the party in this state is not in harmony with the administration upon the subject.
Indianapolis Herald: When the day of reckoning comes the Democrats of Indiana will regret most sincerely that their representatives in the legislature resorted to such revolutionaiy methods to obtain a majority in the joint body. That day will surely come, and the close of 18SS will furnish the people of the state a glorious spectacle of retributive justice.
Brazil Miner: If Mr. Cleveland forces himself on the Democratic party in 18S8, in our opinion, he will wake up ntxt msrning after the election in November and find defeat staring him in the face. He will find that he had better recognized those workers whose time and money were important factors, and without their efforts the boys could not and would net have been got in line, and without them in line there would have been no victory.
Columbus Republican: Now while the legislature and state officers are divided, when neither psrty has full control,would be a good time to enact a number of laws that have long been needed and the general sense of the public demands. First in importance of these is a measure to make the management of the Btate benevolent and penal institutions non-partisan, to take them entirely out of politics. The necessity for this is painfully maniifest and such a measure would be endorsed by three-fourths of the people.

CRUCIBLE.
S.S.S
About twenty years ago I diaoorered a little sore on my cheek, and the doctors prononnoed It cancer. I have tried a camber of pbysiaians, bat without receiving acv permanent bene&t. Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine they applied was like Are to the sore, causing Intense pain. I saw a statement In the papers telling what s. a. a. had done for others similarly afflicted. I procured some at onoe. Before I had used the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. My general health bad heen bad for two or three years—I had a hacking cough and spit blood continually. I had a terer* pain in nv breast. After taklag six bottles of S. S. S. my ODOfh left me and I grew stonter than I had been for several yoars. Xy'earner has healed over all but a little spot about the slse of a half dime, and His rapidly disappearing. I would advise erery one with cancer to give S. a. •. a lair trial.
