If there is nothing etso to come out of the objection to Turpie taking the seat in tho senato, there will be the fun cf Boeing tho Democrats rage and tear their hair.

Mr. Lamar lias given to the country a very long puff for himself for reclaiming public lands. If we remember tho facts in tho case a man named Sparks did most of the reclaiming.

liverything points to a large audionco at the Dickens reading this evening. Wo are glad this is so because Terre llauto hasn't a very high reputation as to attending intellectual feasts.

The abla editor cvorywhero is writing long editorials on "Tho French Situation," when it can bo described by the use of one word, which by reason of the revised version can be spoiled out in print. It is bheol.

There is clanger, judging by the reports from Washington, that Senator Voorhoes will tear up all the desks in the senate chamber and throw them out of the windows if Mr. Turpie is not received with open arms by that body.

St. John is making a desperate effort to alarm tho Democrats by announcing I hat ho will not bo a candidate next year. In 1SS1 he did not havo so much troublo shirting negotiations with tho national Democratic committee.

Tho strango quietness of Gladstone and Parnell is puzzling the opponents of homo rule, and causing a feeling of anxiety among its supporters. Neither has made any public statement for some time, and apparently tho Unionists are gaining grouud. Perhaps tho grand old man is trying the American still hunt.

Tho Cjurior-Journal sava that Mr. Shornian could not count on any votes from Mugwumps for president. For that matter no Republican candidate who believes in tho party's principles regarding the tariff can get votes from the Mugwumps. Tho Mugwump is a freo trader more than he is a civil sorvico reformer.

Tho postollice department at Washington has written to Postmaster Regan asking when tho now postoffiee building will bo ready for occupancy. Mr.Regan should inquire of Superintendent Havens and hoof tho supervising architect at Washington, whoso otlico is only six squares from the postollice department. This is an instance of fool rod tape that should go on record.

Indianapolis is in doubt as to whether she is to havo Tlinos, the base ball player, next year. She hopes to get natural gas, and has received word that Momora, a son of Dowanna, king of tho upper Peron country, and Sandymanda, queen of Jarbacca, is on his way from Capo Mount, West Africa, to enter a medical college at the capital, but all this is as nothing if Hines doesn't play ball with the Indianapolis club next year.

There is and has been a vast amount of wise intimations by tho Democratic newspapers as to what David Turpie would do when ho took his place in tho senate. It is said that in sarcasm ho would wither Ip.galls and in discussion of law ho would drive Edmuudsinto tho corner. This kind of talk has made Turpie all that ho is because beyond being a studious man ho has done nothing in public contests to excite admiration except such as is aroused among the liquor dealers when he makes a speech through his nose against sumptuary laws. We admit that he is "some punkius" on old sumptuary. But in tho main he is a much overestimated man and it will be a sorry day for his reputatiou when he enters the senate.

Thero is not, perhaps, a man in tha United States who is acquainted with the facts in both these cases who doubts the guilt of any of the convicted tuon.

sipislISS

WSzSSggB

The judges on the bonch whose decisions cause these delays unquestionably believe these men to be guilty, and merit punishment. The law points made in their behalf may be, and probably are, strong ones but the point we would make is that justice is not blind and impartial, If Jacob Sharp and the Chicago boodlera had been impoverished they conld not have employed lawyers to raise these technical questions and secure the interposition of higher courts. The poor man would have been serving out his sentence by this time. The injus tice of the operation o* the law is the mor© apparent whea it is remembered that the money with which these rascals obtain the special privilege is money which they were convicted of stealing.

We have received a marked copy of the Kenton, Ohio Democrat which, in double leads says tho "Hon. Daniel W. Voorhees is the man for second place on the ticket with Cleveland." With such a ticket the Democrat believes all doubt will be removed from tho canvass. If the Democrat were an Indiana newspaper it would know that there is such a man as Isaac P. Gray in the state who says who's who aDd what's what to the Indiana Democracy these days, and that he has a particular aversion to the Hon. Daniel W. Yoorhcos.

The Cincinnati Enquirer solicited opinions from members of tho national committee as to the best place for holding the Democratic convention. Of those replying sis had no choice, three were for Chicago, two for St. Louis, two for San Francisco and one each for Cincinnati, Washington and Omaha. This is not very decisive, but then it doesn't make any difference how the committee may bo inclined on the subject. Bess Cleveland is running tho party and in duo time ho will tell the committee which city to fix upon.

Jacob Sharp, sentenced to the penitentiary for bribing officials that he might rob the people of New York City, is to have a now trial, tho highest court in tho :tate saying that he was improperly convicted. It is not said that he is innocent., but that the trial should have been conducted in a different manner. Tho Chicago boodlers wl wero tried, convicted and sentenced got a stay of proceedings, and avoid going to Joliet on the day fixed for their imprisonment in the penitentiary to begin.

A GREAT TRUTH ADVANCED.

"Somebody gavo mo a 'shot' in tho News yesterday about loaning money at high rates of interest," said W. I. Ripley this morning. "I suppose the fellow who wrote that loans money out for nothing, and is a philanthropist, ain't he':" "Don't know that he has any money to loan," answered tho reporter. "That's always tho way," replied Mr. Ripley, "when you strike one of these philanthropists, who wants to do all these pretty things, he has not any money to loan, and when you strike a man who has tho money he isn't a philanthropist."—[Indianapolis News.

LEAD FOUND IN CASS COUNTY. Logansport Pharos: A gentleman named Bess, who lives at Royal Center, brought a small quantity of metal to this city to-day to havo it examined by experts. It was discovered in the gas well at that place nt a distanco of 165 feet. After inspection the metal was pronounced a good quality of lead, which also contained a small amount of silver. Tho drill in the well has been bringing up lead sines yesterday, a seven-foot vein of the article having been struck. The well is now dywn 2(X) feet, with no indications of gas or oil.

WOMEN LESS SELFISH THAN MEN, Recorder McCord. of tho Probate court in Cincinnati, says that, as a rule, women are less selfish than men. Ho comes to this conclusion after reading 100 old wills, in which he found many cases where tho husband made provision to cut off the widow's supplies in case she remarried and in his whole experience he has read but one will of a married woman wherein any such stipulation was made respecting her husband.

REMARKABLE SURGICAL OPERATIONS. Surgeons will be interested in two remarkable cases, reported from Cleveland, Ohio. The skull of a child, suffering from water on the brain, was tapped, draining tubes inserted, and the patient that had been totally blind and deaf, recovered its faculties and health. Iu the second case, anew hip-joint was created and an almost hopeless cripple "restored to symmetry, comeliness and usefulness." Of course, all the other surgeons will deny these statements, because they have never done anything of the kind.

judge and executioner. The three were found guilty and sentenced to be hung. Ropes were procured and attached to the ceiling. A long board was placed on chairs, the beys stepped onto it, the ropes were adjusted around their necks, and, at a signal from the judge, the sheriff jerked away the chair and down the little fellows came in a manner which dispelled their mirth and produced immediate insensibility. The judge and sheriff were so frightened by the distorted appearance of the boys' faccs that they cut them down as quickly as possible. Two of them recovered at once, but the youngest and smallest had his neck so badly lacerated by the rope that it was some time before ho regained consciousness.

DELICATE WORK IX SURGERY.

Curious Little Instruments Used in Operations on Eur*, Eyes, "ose uml Mouth.

"Delicate sugical operations have been made vastly easier tban ever before of late years," said a physician and surgeon to a New York Mail and Express reporter. "Operations upon tho eyeball have always been regarded as dangerous and difficult because of the instinctive twitching of the lid. This has been obviated by a little instrument which draws tho eyelid back and holds it firmly in position. It consists of twiu wires which fit the lids, and are expanded by means of a screw. The latest invention for examining the ear is made upon the same principle. Two small half cylinders are placed opposite each other. These, when thrust into the ear and forced gradually apart by a screw attachment. The concave sides of the cylinderaro highly polished, and act as rcflectors to throw light into the opening made. "The instrument in use for exploring the nose is tho sumo as that used iu examining the ear, excepting that the cylinders aro made to tit each nostril, and the screw lias a wider range of expansion. For examining the interior of the mouth and throat a more complicated apparatus i.s used. To stretch the mouth at the sides two polished plates are fixed in each oJfner. They aro connected by a rubber baud, which is passed around the back of the head. Tho rubber, in contracting, draws tho corners of the mouth far apart. A plate is then thrust into the mouth and tho chin drawn down. By means of this apparatus every recess of the mouth can bo examined and throat successfully explored. Many of these inventions are made by practicing physicians. Tho makers of surgical instruments improve upon them and patent them. A physician rarely reaps the benefit of an invent ion."

flood Wiorj in AVhicli Senator Frye Figured as ViHim.

"The proposed visit ©f Senator Frye to Newark reminds 1119 of a good story," said a gentleman well-known about the court house the oilier day to a reporter of tho Journal of that-city. "I was living at Poland, Me., a number of years ago and became acquainted with two boys who were editing a little sheet at Auburn, known as tho Clipper, and printing it themselves on an old brokendown Franklin press. The boys were sharp as needles, and havo since made names and positions for themselves. Tho boy editors were bright and fearless, and tackled popular subjects without gloves. "Win. I'. Frye was thou running for congress for the iirst time, his horns being on the opposite side of tho river from Auburn. For somo reason, t!i• editors of the Clippov mail* up their minds to go for Billy, SB he was callod, and they raked up all his failings and weaknesses and displayed them to the readers of their papor in tho most startling manner. "An old and highly respectable citizen of Lewiston and a relative of Mr. Frye, wrote to tho young editors, and berated them in strong terms for criticising tho actions of so great a man as Mr. Frye. The irate citizen concluded his epistlo by the trite expression: 'I could never boar a ..fool.' 'In the next issue of the Clipper tho communication was published in full, with only the following added: [The writer's mother evidently could and did—Eds.]"

SMASHING BAGGAGE ASR0AD.

The system of handling baggage on the continent, writes T. C. Crawford, is even moro antiquated and bungling than the English system. You can uot seud your baggago on ahead of you without risk of losing it. If you wish to stop off at any particular place, you must have your baggage registered for that place. This registering of baggago would not bo tolerated for ono moment by the American public. You are obliged to follow tho porters, who pick out your baggago for you and carry it into a registration room. Thero you stand in line while it is weighed, and an inspector leisurely fills out four elaborate blanks. Two of these blanks are kept in tho office, ono is pasted upon the trunk, and tho fourth is given to you. I timed the registering of two little pieces of baggage the other day at Iiosendaal and found that it took me exactly fifteen minutes from the time I left the train uutil I had obtained the little slip of paper which would entitle mo to my baggage at my next stopping place. The railway companies in no case pay for the handling of your baggago. You havo to attend to this yourself, and pay the porters for carrying it to the stations, to tho trains iu (he first place, and to and from tho registration ofliee when necessary. In addition to these delays you have on every frontier the custom house inspection. But you are never hurried, plenty of time is always given, and so you do not feel very much annoyed, in spite of the bother you have.

THE SENATE C0MMITTTE CHAIRMANSHIPS, Nine Republican chairmen have retired from the Senate, and one, Senator Logan, has died. A general reorganization of tho committees is therefore necessary. Each Republican, thirty-eight in all, will get a chairmanship, and nine Democrats will secure similiar privileges, and a Senate chairmanship is a privilege, and more, for the chairman's power is almost absolute. Allison will keep the Appropriations and Sherman Foreign Affairs. Sawyer, chairman of Railroads, will take Postoffices, railroad legislation having been absorbed by the Interstate Commerce Committee, the chairmanship of which Cullum will naturally keep, and continue to show cause why his law should stand. Spooner is likely to keep Claims. The vacated chairmanships, about which there is naturally much interest, are those of Commerce. Military Affairs, Postoffices, Territories, Pensions, Public Buildings and Grounds, and Railroads.
