THE INiDIAXA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1880.

Entered a second-class matter at the Postoffice at Indianapolis, Indiana. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2. FOR PRESIDENT, THOMAS A. HENDRICKS, or nrniAHA, Subject to the decision of the National Democratic Convention. Democrats care precious little who the Republicans trot oat at Chicago to be defeated in November. Pischback wants to bet f 10,000 to $1,000 that Grant can carry Illinois, an indication that Don Cameron took along his check book to Chicago. Jay GortD controls 11.000 miles of railroad and is named aa a possibility at Chicago. His character has enough dark spots on it to bring him well up with any other Republican named. Gaeaealdi, it is said, has lived too long. Unfortunately, Italy is not the only country where men outlive their usefulness. Here, la the United States, first-class funerals are too long delayed. De55is Keakxky is again on the warpath, and proposes to make it hot for his persecutors. That he was sent to prison wroDgfully is established by the decision of the California Courts, and that fact is likely to help his influence. . General Bsx Harrison has been made Chairman of the Indiana delegation, but General Ben is only a figure-head. Don Cameron has more organization and vim in his little toe thaa General Baa has in his entire corptia sine peclofe. Hayes was elected in Ib.d by barely one maority In the Electoral Colitis without any third-term load on his back. Cincinnati Commercial. Hayes was not elected in 1S7G at all. Hia friends stole the office for him, and he has rewarded them with lucrative otüses. Thc Cincinnati Commercial is advised that the Grant men are perfecting their plans to bulldcza the Chicago Convention and carry their points at all hazards. The probabilities now are that one of the prettiest fights ever seen ia this country will begin with the Convention and continue until somebody gets hurt. The Chicago Tribune speaks of tic Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee of Indiana as one of the few "good" men in Indiana who are for Grant. Does the Tribune mean "good" in the sense that Deacon Richard Smith, of the Cincinnati Gazette, is "good?" "Truly good" is the manner in which the latter is alluded to by these who know him best. OCR fight Is over. We have done all we could for oar belief and tor oar man. The people must do the rest. We hops and we think they are with us. Bat, II they are not, we shail make no wry faces; but, picking ourselves up and rubbles that particular place which may have received the bo rent bump, and reflecting that everybsdy gets licked now and then, we shall hope for better lack next time. Courier Journal. This is not giving It up exactly, but it is very much like it. Manifestly the CourierJournal no longer anticipates the nomination of Mr. Tilden. The most available man sow before the party is Mr. Hendricks, and it is well to note the fact that such is the conclusion very generally entertained throughout the conn try. GBaST. All of a sudden the an ti Grant organs are seeking to make their peace with the Man of Destiny, the Man on Horseback, the coming Km per or, and in this nauseating lickspitalism the New York Tribune makes Itself contemptibly conspicuous. It says: It has been the constant plan of the third termers to construe all opposition to a third term Into opposition to General Grant. They fcya JUca tmselves into foam over the 'Insult" that would be offered General Grant, 1 If his own State should fail to give a solid vote for him. They have gotten up elaborate hysterics at the "personal abuse" which antithird termers have poured on General Grant. The hysterlci and the foam were all shammanufactured to order. The third termers know what the anti-third termers know that there has been no personal aba.se of General Grant. General Grant has been treated, all things considered, with extraordinary tenderness. He has not only not been abused, he has not only not been assailed, but he has everyw here been accorded a fall and high measure of respect no dal miration. Themost decided opponents of his re-election have vouchsafed to the mistakes of bis administration, and to his subsequent and extraordinary marches and countermarches, the mercy of their silence. There may have been no magnanimity In this. It may have been policy. It may hare teen selfishness. Cat It is a fact. The truth is, the anti-Grant organs have heaped upon Grant every denunciation that partisan hostility could master. Blaine's bureau, atWaahington, and the anti-Grant organs have not hesitated to aocuse him of treason. They have rone so far as to intimate that while the gusst of Kings, Emperors, and the rotton aristocracy of the Old "World, he bargained to destroy the Rspublio and erect an Empire on its ruins, and they have charged that in third termism, of which Grant is the living embodiment and exponent, they saw the direst calamities to the institutions of the country. Notwithstanding all this, a vast majority of the Republican party indorse Grant and third termism, and by the showing of Republican organs are guilty of treason. The Republican party has demanded a strong Government Government of military, rather than civil supremacy. It has demanded troops at the polls, and military dictation in all things, and its opposition to Grant, in no wise evinces any hostility to a continuation of such a policy in the future. It means rather that some other man shall enjoy supreme power, and the perquisites of office. Blaine desires the Presidential office that he may grow rich by favors to rings and jobs, by inaugurating in the White House debaucheries which he has practiced in Congress. Sherman, should he obtain con trol of the executive, office, would introduce swindle!, compared with which his syndicate Jobs ,' would sink to insignificance indeed, it matters little who of the men named In opposition to Grant succeeds at Chicago, not one of them

would, If eii:ted, enter upon the duties of President, with a character less tarnished thaa that cf Grant's, or with a policy less In direct conflict with the welfare of the country. This fact the Grantites knew, and as

Grant is undoubtedly the coming man at Chicaga, the anti-Grant organs are b.anicg to get down on their marrowbones to male emends for dnunc:at!e23: SENATOR VOOäHSS AltD THE EXODUS COäl KITTLE At last accounts the missing stenographer of Senator Voorhees' txoaus inwuirwn)j Committee was stlil undtscoverea. ins uis iinMTuncB with the records of the Commit tee is a fitting conclusion to the greatest legis lative farce of me bps son. in iucuuimuiu pubiia career Mr. Voorhees ha made many mistake and done many foolish things, but for stupid conception and blundering execu tion his exoaas invesvguou ui paws ui. From first to last this has been a stupendous fraud. It was a fraud on the part of Mr. v oor heesto pretend that be waa at-Uaated by motives of good will toward the colored people: It was a fraud to assume that they bad not the same riant as other American eitlaens to move from State to Htate; It was a fraud to Charge that the Republican party was in any way responsible for the movement; and it was a fraud on the rai t of Mr. Voorhees to summon his persoual friends and boon companions to Washington to testily as witnesses; it waa a fraud to spend i:),000 of the people's money in anv snch business: and. finally, this pyramid of fraud is ntly crowned by the disappearance of the oilicial reporter or the uommmee witn the notes of the investigation, making it impossible for the testimony to be wiittea out. Journal. The John C. fsew organ has out loose again on ijjnatar Voorhet s and the exodus investigation. The New organ is not particular as to Its methods of attacking Democrats, when its equirt gun is charged to the nuzzle with the filth of its brain sewers. That Mr. Voorhees is infallible is not asserted by his warmest friends and most enthusiastic admirers, but that he is as free from error as Oliver P. Morton, whose place In the United States Senate he more than fills, is conceded by all men who are capable; of appreciating the difference between honesty and duplicity. The exodus investigation was demanded by a large majority of the Republican Senators, who voted with Mr. Voorhees to raise the Committee. If it was a fraud, as the New Journal ssys, then Republicans were jointly responsible for it. But the exodus investigation was not a fraud; it was not a deception. The proposition was made In open Senate; the purpose was fully explained, and Republican Senators, almost to a man, voted for it. Hence there was no aiiatagem, deceit or trick. The Exodus Committee wes demanded by ec's of Republican scoundrelism; by the political knavery of the leaders or the Republican party in Indiana and elsewhere. Thesa political scamps knew that Indiana was a Democratic State, and by all fair means irrevocably a Democratic State, and In looking about for means to retcue it from Democratlc control, these Republican miscreants hit npon the plan of Importing pauper ne. groes to Indiana to vote the Republican ticket. That was the contemplated fraud, the bold villainy, the partisan ecoundrelism, that Senator Voorhees proposed to expose, and has exposed. In this connection, it la only necessary to reproduce a portion of the testimony of Mr. Thomas P. Mills, of Indianapolis, a leading Republican, who dared to tell the truth. Mr. Mills testimony gives the lie direct to every charge made by the New Journal. Here is what he eaid, and we challenge the New Journal to contradict Mr. Mills' testimony: Q. You have ben In favor of emigration? A.-Yes,sir. I WAS VERY MUCH IN FAVOR OK IT. I TOLD THE ROY WHEN THEY FIRHT CAME THERE THAT WE WAN TED U.Utlf) BUCKS," BUCKNIUUEBS, IN INDIANA THIS YEAR. Q You mean to say that you wanted 20,000 men? A. Yes, sir. You HAD HO USE FOR WOMEN? A. No, sir; we had no special use for them. Q. You had no idea of LABOR connected wiih this matter? A. No, sir. I had no Idea of labor. I was LOO KINO FOB VOTES. l. You wanted these 20.UX) "bucks" to vote? A.-I wanted them to vote, of course. Q.-ARE YOU A REPUBLICAN? A.-YE3, 81 it; I am. o And yon thought if you could get 20,000 "bucks" vou would slsy tis? A.-I THOUGHT WE WOULD GET AWAY WITH YOU EVERLASTINGLY. Q. Have yon mixed with them much since they came here? A. The colored folks? tj, Yes. A No, sir ; except at the depot. We have one office near the depot, and wnen a gang was coining In I would go down there I and 6ee them. o,. Have they come in as fast as jou, desired ? Av-They have no rorad in &s I wanted theinlO. Q. There have been rather more women anu children than you wanted? A,--cs, sir; they have rather overdone the thing In tue women and children. Q.-I want to ask you whether the Republlcau prty,or lead In 15 Republicans, have anything to do with the movement? I will put it lu a different way WHETHER THEiK VIEWS OF YOURS WHICH YOU HAVE OIVEN TO THE COMMITTEE VERY FRANKLY. ARK SHAKKl) IN BY THE INTELLIGENT REPUBLIC ANS IN YOUR STATE? A.-I think they are as individuals. Mr. Mills B3ta forth clearly and distinctly t'ae scheme 0! the leaders of the republican party to Import pauper negroes to vote the Ri)Ublican ticket. The nefarious scheme, according to Mr. Mills, had no other significance. The Republican leaders did not went women J3d children, only "bucks," and 20,000 of them were demanded by the "intelligent Republicans of the State." The fraud to be perpetrated was, out and out, a Republican fraui, a Republican villainy, a Republican rascality to defeat the Democratic party, and to accomplish their purpose Republican reprobates were willing to see pauper negroes kidnaped in North Carolina and shipped to Indiana, like swine, in midwinter, without proper clothing, without food or money, to endure cold, hunger, sickness and death, if thereby a few votes could be secured for the Republican party. To put an end to this detestable business; to stop this Republican cruelty, and to expose the atrocious schemes of the lenders of the Republican party in Indiana, was not only to exhibit good will toward the poor negroes, the victims of Republican wickedness, but it was due to Indiana, where such immigrants were not wanted. Mr. Mills' testimony and the testimony of others demonstrates, beyond all question, that the Republican party of Indiana was engaged in the damnable business, and now we ask John C. New, Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, and therefore, a fit representative of the party, if it he was not directly or indirectly mixed up with the scandalous business? Didn't yon, Mr. New, contribute money to help on the pauper exodus? Didn't you, too, want "20,000 buck niggers" to vote the Republican ticket, and to "everlastingly get away with the Democratic party?" Are not yon, Mr. John e. New, Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, one of the "intelligent Republicans" to whom Mr. Mills refers? Aa for "summoning personal friends," Mr. New'a Journal should be profoumdly quiet. We ask yon,

Mr. John CL New. II you did not go to Washington, draw your pay, mileage lad. per diem, without giving a word of testimony? Come, out, with it! Your Journal talks'! "fraud." Y01 ue quite willing to repeat the chr;g8 0 fraud against Senator Voorhees. Now, sir, stand up and answer if you did not get pay for doing nothing? Whose per sonal friend was you, air, that such favors could be lavished upon you? You can answer, and until you do "answer, your paper had better be more circumspect. Under the circumstances, your paper, Mr. New, is not the one to talk fraud so flippantly. The Journal talks of a "pyramid of fraud." If there ba one, Republican rascality forms its bsse, with Indiana leaders of the R3publican pirty for itaepax. Mr. Voorhees has done the country a service of great value in exposing the pauper negro exodus schema of the Republican leaders, and the fact that te has exposed them is what is the matter with the leaders and their organs? If the expenditures to expose Republican rascality amounted to $40,000, we should like to know bow much of It Hon. John C. New succeeded in obtaining, and we would like to know if he was equitably entitled to the money. If he will answer the questions we have put to him, we will proceed with the discussion.

WHEAT. The Chicago Times, in discuceicg the break in wheat in that market, remarks that "at the eve of what promises to be the largest harvest which America or the world has ever seen, we Had ourselves with7,oG3,000 bushels of wheat in store here in Chicago, against 721,000 bushels at this time last year. In Milwaukee there are in store between 3,000, 000 and 4,000,000 bushels. In this country and In Canada there are now 'in sight' that is, in store at the principal ports 20,000,000 bushels of wheat. Fiom January 1 to May 15, in the face of the high prices and heavy European demand, we Lava exported in wheat and in flour reduced to wheat 2G,027,000 bushels against 27,321,000 bushels exported during the same period of last year. The vast and excessive supply of wheat now in store; the certainty that larger proportion of the old crop is now held back by the farmers than is usual; the almost positive certainty that the heaviest crop ever grown in this country is about to ba har. vested; and the prospect that the Engli&h and Continental yield cf wheat will be large at the coming harvest, are certainly sufficient to impart a bearish fcelirjg to the market. This Elate of affairs is primarily due to the clique speculation, which has interHi pted the ordinary course of the grain traffic, and prevented the crop of 1S79 frcra going into consumption end getting out of the way of its euccessor." It would bo well for all parties concerned if some plan could be devised to put an end to clique and ring control of the wheat market cf this country, which, aa the Times says, has been a "detriment and a bane to the whole West." With an abundant harvest, wheat should rule low. Snch is the law, but by the combinations of speculators, the lavr is virtually abrogated, prices rule high and the country suffers. Capital is employed in vast sums to tie up wheat, hold it oat of market and out of consumption, except at such prices as greed may dictate, and the men who engage in the business levy a direct tax npon consumers, which hunger, mora exacting than tax-gatherers, compels them to pay. We are hearing much nowadays about the immorality of lotteries, but lottery schemes, however nefarious they may be, are cot as infamous as the plans devked by speculators, cliques and rings, to place a fictitious value upon the essentials of life, end compel con sumers to pay or go without fcod. lion. TV. It. Myers, We present this morning a letter from Hon. W. R. Myers in relation to the actioa of the recant Convention at Tipton of the Greenback Labor party of the Ninth Con gressional DisUiüw The letter is as fellows: WASiItKriTo:, D. C, May 2f, 1880. Hon.

Logan, has outdone Tammany in its palmiest days, In resorting to outrageous means to gain a political advantage. It was governed solely by the principle that "might makes rieht." Taking advantage of their having a majority in that Convention, the Grant men deliberately Ignored the election of twenty antl Grant delegates to Chicago, made by regular District Conventions, and appointed twenty Grant men to take their places, and thus disfranchising ths Republicans of the Districts which had chosen these men to represent them. They did this in violation of all precedents governing the selection of delegates In that State, as well as in all other States. They simply resorted to the South' Carolina and Mississippi mode in order to gain the State delegation. Nearly the entire Republican press of the country has denounced this political maneuver of the friends of General Grant, and they have no ground to stand upon to justify their doings. It is certain to react upon them. A Crash. At Kernevel, ia Germany, the other day, juit as religious procession was entering the church, the bell bung in the tower, weighing half a ton, rame down with tremendous force, crashing through three floors on its way, and fell at the feet of the man who beaded the procession bearing the banner.

JOHN LOGAN.

HI Disloyal Speech at Murphysbero in iChicaso Trlb one, May 2S. J The positive statement of Mr. R. G. Mason at the Music Hall on Wednesday evening as to the disloyal utterances of John A. Login at the breaking out cf the wa: created somewhat of a sensartcn," not oaly among tb vast crowd there assembled, but throughout the city. The same charge had been maie before, but not by ft person familiar with the factF,nd Logan and his friends denying it, he wes given the benefit of th doubt, owing to the lack of proof. Bat now there can be no question of his sympathy with the rebellion. Mr. Mason, the gentleman who makes thece statement?, ia the eon of Colonel R. - B. Mason, formerly Mayor of this city, and one of its eldest and best known cifinns. He is a lawyer Of high standing at tho Chicigo Bar, has been prominently identified with the reform of politics in tbts city, and was ona of the gentlemen who were instrumental in rescuing the South Town from the hands of the gang cf thieves and shoulder-hitters who at one time controlled it To all who know Mr. Mason, either personally cr by reputation, his affirmation of the truth of any statement will carry conviction with it A Tribune reporter called on him yesterday, and asked him . . CSPER WHAT CIRCCMSTAXCSS HE HEAED LOGAX make the remarks he referred to in his ipeech. "In the spring of 1SG1," said he, "I was a law etudent in the effica of Hoyne, Miller it Ls wis, of this city, and, at the request of the firm, went to Southern Illinois to obtain orders in certain cases in the Circuit Courts of Jackson aDd Perry Counties. It was jest after the call of President Lincoln for nicetyday troop?, and on my way down there, there passed me at Centralis the first train loaded with Illinois soldiers on tbeir way to Cairo to take possession of that plac3. I left lh3 Illinois Central at the nearest point to Mnrphysboro, the County scat ot Jackson County, and attended Court in the morning. At noon the announcement as made that Court would not be held in the afternoon because John A. Logan would address his constituents in the Court House yard. The return conveyance to the railroad was not to leave until toward evening, and I therefore remained and heard the speech. John A. Logan stood in the midst of his constituents, who surrounded him in rows, seated ou the grans. He was in the center, like the chief of a clan. The men were in the mam roughly dress d, had come in on horseback, and some of them had rifles. When all was ready they said, 'Go ahead, John. Talk us a btrirg, John.' And he did talk them a strlrg, substantially as follows: He told them that there wus going to be a war between the North and the South; that it had alreedy commenced, and that IT WAS A BLACK KEPCULICAN VTARJ that 'Old Abe Lincoln,' as he called him, wished to have Illinois troops take pOE&eseion of Cairo, because it wan an important point, and hold it for the North, and that the Illinois men ougtt to take possession of Cairo, and hold it for the South. And he recommended them to ßght on tha side cf the south to go Ifi to its armies, and have notbirg to do with the Union troops. Those expressions, in substance, I clearly remember; and the residue of the speech was of a piece with them. I was naturally very much impressed by it, as the people of Chicago at least had no idea at that lime of any sacn feeling in Southern Illinois. I returned to the railroad and took; the tram lor Cairo; and at one of the bridges on my way down, where the cars stopped, I found that soldiers had been left from the train which preceded us, to guard the bridge, because rumors of rebel disturbances In Southern Illinois had reached tbeu. On my arrival iq Cairo, I met some gentlemen from Chicago, and told them of theepecch Logan had made. I have been in Southern Illinois twice of late years, and have taken pains to inquire as to the recollection of people there concerning JOHX A. LOGA.V8 POSITION AT THE OUTBREAK CF TUE WAU, acdhave been as3ured repeatedly by respectable citizens of that part of the State that it was perfectly well understood there that he did make rebel speeches at that time, and that there were men now livicg in Southern Illinois who had gone into the rebel army at his instigation. My own recollection as to the speech I heard is perfectly clear. There ein be no question about it." "Why have you not spoken of it before?" ' I have repeatedly epoken of it to friends in the city, and narrated the incident to them. I never made a political speech before, and never had occasion to refer to it in public The matter never came up in any way where I was called on to speak about it as at the Music Hall. I bave never made a eecret o! it among my friends." lEditorial Comment. Senator Logan's friends have frequently and positively denied that he ever counseled the people of Southern Illinois to cast their lot with the Rebels in 18G1. Mr. M G. Mason, son of ex-Mayor Mason, of this city, in an interview with a Tribune reporter yes terday, said that he was present at a meeting in Mnrphysboro in the spring 6f 1861, having Rone there from Chicago cn legal business, and he distinctly recollects that Logan described th war, which had theft commenced, aa a Black K-publican war, referred in slighting terms to President Lincoln, and recommended his hearers to light on the Eide' of the South, and to have nothing to do wl'.h, the Union army. This is the testimony ct one of the most resjx Cable citizens ot this State, a gentleman whose Republicanism is undoubted, whose honor can not be questioned, and whose statements can cct be pooh poobed by the hangers on and underlings ot the Illinois "Boss," A Defense of Mr. Landers. To the Editor of the Courier Journal: Indianapolis, May 27. The letters of your correspondent from this city upon, the Governorship have been so one-sided and unfair that I have concluded to write you this note and ask ita insertion in your paper. I assume you have nothing personal againet Mr. Landers, and will be willing to give a friend of his the necessary space to present his side of the gubernatorial question. Mr. Landers ia a distinguished Indiana Democrat, and is a prominent candidate for the highest oSce in the State. It would seem, therefore, that it la no unreasonable request I make when I ask you to give me, a friend of his, a hearing in your columns. The New Albany Ledger-Standard is making a bitter personal fight on Mr. Landers, and I am aorry to see that some of its false and mendacious charges against him have been copied into your columas. No paper published in this State has waged a personal warfare on Colonel Gray, Mr. Landers' competitor for the nomination. The Indianapolis Sentinel, a paper friendly to Mr. Landers, has never, editorially, advocated his nomination ; nor has it copied into ita columns a single article derogatory to Colonel Gray or hia candidacy. I submit that the treatment of Colonel Gray by the friends of Mr. Landers has been in marked contrast with that received by Mr. Landers from those of Colonel Gray. The Democracy of Indiana owa it to the country to nominate for Governor the candidate who can give assurance of polling the most votes. This should be paramount to all other considerations, for in the contest which is approaching we will have no votes to spare. Now, which will be the stronger candidate, Landers or Gray? The best way to determine what a candidate can do is to consider what he has done. Let us apply this test to the gentlemen now seeking the Democratic nomination for Governor, and see what will be the result In 1874 Hon. John E. Neff headed the Democratic . ticket in Indiana, and polled 182,154 rotes in the If täte. The same year Mx. Landers waa elected to Congress In the

Seventh District his vote being 1G.977, and Mr. NeflTa vote in the District being 16,516. It is therefore apparent that Mr. Landers led Ma ticket 41ß yjtis, and in tie eame ratio would have led it 5.04 votes had he teen a candidate for a State office. In 1870 Governor Williams received 213.219 votes in the State for Governor. His vote in the Seventh Congressional District was 17,932, and Mr. Lmders' in the same District was 18,236, or 304 more than Governor Williams received. In the eame ratio of increase he would have led his ticket ha he ben a candidate for a State office 3,622 This vote for Mr. Landers can not be layed at the door of the Greenbsck patty, for that party ran for Corgress that year in Mr. Lenders District, James Buchanan, E?q., its leader in the State. Having given Mr. Lenders' record, let us consider that of Colonel Gray. Colonel Gray has not run for office bnt onceBince he has been a Democrat In 1876 he was elected Lieutenant Governor of the State on the ticket with Governor Williams. Governor Williams' vote in the Stete was 213.219, and Colonel Gray's vote was 212 070 It is, therefore, apparent that in 1876 1,143 men voted for Governor Williams who refused to support Colonel Gray. Mr. Landers always ran ahead of his ticket and Colonel Gray ran 1,143 votes behind his. This is the lecord of these gentlemen. There is no" gainsaying or denying the figures I have given; they are taken from the records and must stand. By them it will be seen which is the stronger man before the people, Landers or Gray. Ax Isdiasa Democrat.

A Tratnp Who Wanted a Change. I Detroit Free Tress. Soon after the dinner hour a specimen tramp appeared at the door of a house on John R f treet, and before he could te ordered off the steps he began: "Sir, I am a tramp." "Yes, I see you are." "Bat I am not here to ask for either food, money or clothing. I have just had a bite, my clothes are good enough, and if I had money I should get drunk and be cent up." "Well, what ao you want?" "There are four tramps down the street, and I know they'll call here. It is now five years since I began traveling around. I suppose I have been called a loafer and a thief and a dead beat 10,000 times, and I have been 6hot at, clubbed, brocmsticked and scalded times without record. Now I want a change." "How?" " "Well, all I ask is that you will let me represent your house when those tramps come up." This was agreed to. He eat down upon the steps, removed his hat lighted the stub of a cigar, and wes reading a circular when the four fellows douched fiap and entered the yard. "What in Arkansas do you fellows want in my yaro?" exclaimed the tramp, as he roee up. ' Suthln to eat," was the humble reply. "Something to eat! Why, you miserable, thick-ribbed cadavars, go and earn it, then! Do you suppose I bave nothing to do but to keep a free hotel for loaftrs?" Can't get work," mumbled the biggest of tne 10t. "Oh! you can't? Been looking all arennd, I suppose' Everybody got all the help he wants, eh? Wan to be cashiers and conn" dential advisers, don't yon?" "Nobody gives us a ehow," growled the third man. "That's it! That's your cue! Nobody will take you in with your old rags and dirt and sore heels and weep over you, and 8Ek you to please be good, and put yon in the parlor bed room and feed you on chicken brotb ! How awful it is that you can't be put on ice and laid away where you won't melt!" "Will you give us something?" impudently demanded the fourth. "Will 1? You are just right I will! I'll give vou five seconds to get outside the gste, and I'll tell you in addition that if I ever see you In this neighborhood sgiin I'll tie you into hard knots and hire a soie-eyed dog to bite you to death! Git up and git! Move on hurry out with you!' They snaffled out as fast as they could, and when they had turned the corner the tramp put on his hat, put out his inch of cigar for another smoke, and said to the gentleman: "You bave done me a great favor, and I am grateful. I already feel better for the change, and I solemnly believe that if I could only have got an excuse to throw 'em over the fence I should have been resdy to reform and start out as a lecturer. Goodbye. I shall never forget your kindness'' Grit. Yiollet le Dac, the great architect and writer on art, who lately died at l'aris. was also a good landscape painter. While climbing Mont Blanc once, on a sketching tour, he slipped and fell, remaining suspended over the brink of a precipice by a rope that attached him to the waitt of hia guide. The latter's efforts to draw bim up were fruitless. Yiollet le Dac, perceiving that, instead ot being rescaed by the guide, he world only cause the destruction of both, drew a knife from hia pocket and cut the rope, preferring to meet a certain death rather j than involve his companion in his fail.
