Wright stated he, had been a "White Cap" for twenty-one years and had whipped hundreds of men, but protested his inr c-cence ot the present crime. Tbe people of this vicinity are aroused to tbe fact that the brutal and barbaric treatment of ber citizens must cease, and as the Governor has offered a reward for the arrstof some of the "White Cips," tbe above do1 ice should be called to bia attention. Several newspapers have reported that a mob bad control of the town, which, is untrue. Every thing Is quiet at present. The Staser Will Case Decided. Kvaksville. December 12.

Martinsville, December 12. Spscial Ida Miller, an incorrigible girl seventeen years of age, to-day pleaded gulltyjto a charge of stealing a dall, tu i was seat tj the Ktformafory for three years. The charge was only osed to remove the girl from her present vicious surroundings. .Halbing Sick Fernon. flood Housekeeping. A sick perscn should be bathed every day, unlets for some special reason the Cocor foiDidsit. The skin cannot properly I erform its function of carrying" oil the wacte matter from the body unless its pores are kept open. In fever, Epocglnz with ccid water is one of the recognized means of lowering the temperature. It is, therefore, in portant to know how to give a bath to a person in bed as easily, speedily, and eßtciumlly as possible. Before beginning, everytbirg teat will be required should te collecUd at the aide of the bed. Two blatikets are needed, two towels, a basin of water (if the bath is to be a war:a cne a pitcher of hot water to repteaish the' basin), ai.d a -uouse. if the bath is givjn every day, soup is unnecessary; when it ia used a Cloth should be substituted for the sponge, aa eoapSDOl !s the lat er. If the night dress and sheet are to be changed, the fresh ones should be put to air, and warm at the fire. This precaution should never be neglected, aa damp linen might give a fatal chill. Double the blankets end to end, move the patient to one side of the bed, r uth the bed-clothes toward him, keepiog him ciYfreJ, and, on the cleared space, lay the folded blanket, draw tbe bed-COV-erings over it, and nndtr their shelter move the p atient on it Lay the second fjlded blanket over the spread, and draw all the bed-clothes from beneath it. leaving tha patient covered with it alone. Remove the night dress, squeeze the sponge 80 that it will not drip, and bathe the laca, neck and ears, wiping them carefully afterward Pssa the hand holding the spDnge under the blanket, and wash the arms, drying each aa soon as done; then bathe the body, and wipe it dry ; turn the patient on the side, and bathe the back, then the legs to the knees; turn again on the back and finish the legs ana feet. The points to be remembered are not to expose the patient to cold by letting tbe blanket slip aside, not to wet too large a surface at one, acd to wipe thoroughly dry. Replace the night dress and bedclothes, draw out the upper blanket, move tbe patient of! the lower blanket to dry. Tbey will be damp, but not wet, if the bath has heen properly given. ;Defeiiding the Female Clerics. A short time ago Civil Service Commissioner Oberly made a hot attack on the lere ale clerks in the departments here, classifying thm as "lazy, impudent and indiQexent." Commissioners Edgerton and Lyman are indignant, and say that Mr. Oberly does not represent their sentiments. Mr. Edgerton says on the matter: "I know that there are women employed under the Government who would scorn any housebold in tbe land. In intellect, culture and refinement many of them are the peers of those not forced to earn a livelihood. There is a divinity of virtue enveloping a majority of them that should make all honest men hesitate to defame their char acter. There are good and bad in every clasp, bat the maionty should not be made to sufier for tbe faults of a few. The defenselees condition of these poor women, forced to earn their bread when ihey are better adapted to domestic life, ahould se cure them immunity from wanton atHacks." Etki gelUni In Iittburg. PiTTSEtr.o. December 11. The eleventh anniversary of tbe great temperance revival in thia city, when over 25.000 people signed the pledge, was celebrated by Francis Murphy, tbe evangelist, at the Bijoa Tb enter to-night. The meeting was one of the most enthusiastic ever held here. D. L. Moody, tbe evangelist, rlosed a series of three weeks meetings In Fittsburg to-night. From two to four meetings have been beld each day except Saturday, and tbe Central Rink, ssating some 3 500 persots,has been full at every meeting. On aome occasions thousands have been turned away. Mr. Moody, after the holidays, will spend a month in Louisville, where a tabernacle, seating 5,000, is being built for bis use. Arter leaving Louisville Mr. Moody will spend the rest ot the winter and early spring on the Pacific coast. Struck 13 ad by Electricity. Cikcikbati, O., December 11.

HERE IS A PLACE

Indianapolis ti the Paint at Whiob to Holl the Nitienal Democratie Convention. öen Smith-vSam flnmll Ki plains How Turpi Got his Seat Why Tbre was to Protest. i (Special Dispatch to tbe Enquirer 1 Irdian AroLis, Ind., December 11. A strocfi effort is belüg made to have the National Democratic Convention held in this city. This effort is not made bo much by citizens of Indianapolis as it is made by leading Democrats of the State, and it is understood by prominent men of the party In other States. Indiana is looked upon here by lie publicans as being good ground to fight over. The same impression is beld abroad. While it has invariably been a Democratic State when It came down to an issue, yet the vote Riven has at no time been such as to preclude a possibility of Republicans winning, had that party the organization which it has in other States. I l Eil AL AFFOII'TMENTS Have not net with general satisfaction in this State. Whether tbe feeling that the right men have not been chosen to fill Government positions has any justifiable basis is neither here nor there. Suffice it to say that the spoils have caused a decided apatby, and that this will certainly have a disastrous eflect, as far as tbe Democratic party is concerned, unless something is done to oflset it. Other thirj& also enter, such as lactional fights, which, although not fierce, may yet have a tendency to weaken the Democratic party. This is fully realized by leading Democratic poiitic'ans all over the country. As a result, they are willing to do something heroic. Abont the most heroic thing that could be done would be to hold the next National Convention in this city, IT IS HARPLr TEQUABLE That such will be tbe decision of those having the matter in chargo. The shrewdness of such a move, however, will be apparent to all. Should that convention be beld In this city, its eflect could scarcely be fiized np, at least not just at th's time. It would, without donbt, be the very best thing that could happen to the Democratic party, and would most certa'nty assure success to that party ar the next Presidential election. Indiana Democrats, unlike thojs of many other States, need some great movement or it is necessary for a great principle to 1 e involved to brii g them out on election day. There has never been a National Convention beld in this State, although Indiana is looked to all over the country by politician, mora si than any other State in the I'nion. A Natiooal Democratic Convention beld here would be just tbe thiDg to stir np enthusiasm and silidify the Democratic forces. There ia MORE IX THIS UVEMEXT Than appears upon th surface. It Is uncerstoou mai iex.airtg l'emocrars an over tbe country are advocating Indianapolis as trie proper piace inr tne convention, As to the abilitr of this ci'.v in tk ram of such a convention th?re can be no ques tion. Indianapolis has a hall, Tomuson Hull, whtr.h ia sprnnd in nnni in tha country, as far as capacity is conernei vi- !. Tf.ll n- if exretji, ci course, aiu'ic iiau at umcinnaii, wDirn is wuncut i:s fuat. xne note! facilities are unusually good, better then these of mott cities four timej the R?ze dt the Hoonlcr Pntl Thaw are exceedingly large, many in number, ar a as gooa as any in tne country, it is tr-je tbe city is governed somewhat upon I'uritanical principles, bat the authorities 1-or a am alinrdflnllv able to rise to the occssion, and all comers would be perromea to sperm ineir money as tney saw fir snrl to ptmov themselves aa it hpst suited their desires. Indianapolis WOIlld welcome them and would extend a recep tion that can only bo given by a hospitahlo ITnnstar citv backed bv a State tha citl. zens of which, regardless of party, know nothing better than the sentiment em bodied in "our laicn-Biring nangs out." THE QUESTION OF A GOVER50B. Indiana Democrats are. more than backward this yesr. At other periods at this stage a candidate for Governor would have been selected and to an extent convetion goers would have settled down upon a Candidate who they thought would be a sure winner. There is no such condition of al fairs at tbe present time, however. The claims of a dozen candidates are being discussed, and tbe condition is what might be termed chaotic I met Green Smith a few days ago, and during a short conversation be plainly, and in language that could not be misunderstood, stated that he would be a Candidate for the nomination for Governor before the next State convention. Green is a good politician, and it is the opinion that he is not really seeking the Gubernatorial nomination. In stead, it is intimated that he is shrewdly ? laying his cards tor Lieutenant-Governor, his on the theory that the more strength he develops the more likely those opposing him will make overtures, the result of which will be that a nomination for tbe second place will be In the nature of a gift to him. It ia argued that Green Is fully aware that he would have an extraordinarily hard fight to secure a nomination for Governor, and that such a battle would en gender a sentiment that would not be bene ficial to a candidate. Therefore the claim that he is really not seeking to lead the Democratic forces, bot will be content with the nomination for Lieutenant-Governor. TURriE'S WONPERFUL SUCCESS. Tbe ease with which Senator Tarpie gained his seat in tbe United States Senate is a matter of much surprise to Indlanians. It is a source of much gratification, not only to tbe Democrats, but likewise to a class of Republicans who have not taken kindly to Senator Harrison. From accounts which were sent out from Washington it was supposed that Judge Turple would have a fight from the moment he appeared at the bar of the Senate of the United 8tates to be sworn in until the time hia troubles were ended if they ever were. ceverai protests, memorials and papers of contest by the dozen were prepared and forwarded to Washington by Republicans. only to be entirely ignored by their friends In the Senate. Samuel llamlt, Es-j., of Terra Hante, dropped into the city late tonignu ue was on his way home, having been in Washington during the past ten days. Sam throws more light, probably, upon the Tnrpie matter than any other person, speaking in regard to the Benator he said: "Senator Vooihees, John E. Lamb, Senator Turpie and myself called noon Senator Hoar In Washington two days previous to the assembling of Congress. Tbe Senator from Massachusetts, we understood, would question Senator Turpie's right to be swore in when he presented himself at the Senate bar. WE SHOWED SEXATOR HOAK. Tnrpie's credentials and a brief we had prepared bearing upon the matter. Ue examined them carefully and listened to our explanations. When we had got through he said that Judge Turpie's credentials satisfied him. He would not, he said, stultify himself even to please soma of hia socalled party friends. That wm ail we wanted, and Turple went through with flying colors." "How does his case stand now? " "It has been referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections, and will never be heard from again that is, not so it will cause Senator Torpte any trouble. When he had taken the oath, Senator John Sherman, of Ohio, was one of the first gentlemen to step forward and congratulate him. Törpla and Bhe rman med ia the Senate together

THE OUTGROWTH OP A VAST

The treatment of many thousands of eases Of those chronic weaknesses and distressing ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Ituffalo, N. Y., has afforded a va.-t experience in nicely adapting and thoroughly testing remedies for the cure of woman's peculiar muHdies. Dr. IMcrceN Favorite Prescription is the outsrrowth. or result, of this irrcat and valuable experience. Thousands of testimonials, received from patients and from physicians who have tested it in the tnore aggravated and olistiuatc eases which had battled their skill, prove it to Ik? the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of süü'ering women. It is not recommended as a " ciire-ull." but as a most perfect Specific lor woman's peculiar ailments. A a powerful, invluoratiMsr tonic, it imparts strength to the whole system, and to the uterus, or womb and its uppendugos. in particular. For overworked, worn-out," "run-down." debilitated teaehor?, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, " shop-pi r Is." housekeepers, nursinsr mothers, and fecMo women jrenerally.

If tbe opportunity is of ered Senator Tnrpie, I think: that he will prove himself one of the very greatest men in the Senate." Mr. Ilamil also stated that on the night of the day on which Senator Tarpie was sworn in, end upon the following day he was the recipient of thousands of telegra ms. They came not only from all parts cf Indiana, bnt from leading Democrats all oyer the country, mac FISHERIES NEGOTIATIONS. The Long Adjournment Uelleved to Mean Serious Ilitcb. Washington, December 12. It Is believed here that tbe Fishery Commission have given np all hope of formulating a general treaty, and that the most tbey hope to accomplish is an agreement on.a protocol defining anew the meaning of certain clauses of the treaty of 1818, such as those relating to bait, to repairs and Jefresbment8, and to the transhipment in bond acrois Canada of American fish. It is understood that such a protocol, if it is agreed on, will be merely explanatory of the old treaty, and will not have to be sent to the Senate for action, but if acceptable tbe the State Department, will provide a mode of action for tbe fature. The long recess, it is understood, was taken at the instance of Mr. Chamberlain, who found it neccessary to send his communication to tbe Dritish Foreign office by mail, an i to await further suggestions by mill, which requires fully three week. The uncertainty of an agreement involving commercial privileges being recognized by Congress, even If a treaty ahould be ratified by the Senate, has been made clear to Mr. Chamberlain by the status of the reciprocity treaty with Mexico, which the House of Representatives has to date refused to recognize by the necessary act to ca-ry it into effect" Ottawa, Ont., December 12. A telegram has been received by the Government from Mr. Foster, Dominion Minister of Fisheries, stating that he is en route from Washington to Ottawa. The fact that the Commission has adjourned nntil January 4th is understood here to mean a serious hitch baa occurred in the proceedings ot 1he commission, and It is thought the adjournment has been arrived at in order that tbe Canadian government may have time to consider Mr. Dayard's proposals. It is not known whether Sir Charles Tap fer and Mr. Thompson will return, but it s fully expected tnat they well. Distressing Hantln; Tragedy. Kaksas CIty, Mo., December 12 Infor matlon has just been received here of a distressing tragedy resulting in the death of two hunters in the wilds of Ozark county, in the Southern part of thia state on Saturday last The victims were W. II. Orinter, a well-known stock man of Munde, Kan., and W.U. Raqna, a promiment and wealthy citizen of Fort Scott, Kan. The two men were each members of two separate parties of hunters who had met in the county, and who had become quite friendly. On Saturday afternoon the (irinter party set out for wild turkey, W. II. Grinter having the turkey-bone. The IUqua party were alto out, although this was not known to Urluter. Grinter made a call with the bone, which the.Raqua mistook tor a turkey, and oseln a portion of Grinter's head, fired a load of buckshot into hli head. Grinter supposing it had been done purposely, became enraged and returned the fire, killing Kaqua instantly. Grinter lingered for half an hour and then died. The remains of Ilaqua were hipped to his family in Ft Scott, and Grinter's body was brought to Wyandotte. jrizxled Again. Nkw York, December . 12.

PENNSYLVANIA'S NEW LAW, It Threat et; to Drive Many of the Lienor Dealer Out of Business. Pitiladei.i h i a, December 12. The naw high license law passed by the last Legislature promises to drive out of the liquor business not only those who cannot aiiord to pay the $500 license fee, but also many wealthy dealers who will find it impossible to secure the necessary bondsmen to become responsible for their faithful compliance with the law. Up to the close of business Saturday, only 350 applications for licenses for next year had been filed with tbe clerk of the Court of Quarter Sessions. This is considered a small number, in view of tbe fct that there are about G OOo saloons In the city. The dealers are experiencing no end of trouble in obtaining two bondsmen who are willing to take upon themselves the responsibility attached to those who become sureties for tavern keepers. 'Sach bondsmen will each become responsible ia the turn of $2,000 for the payment of all. fines, penalties or damages that may be levied upon the dealer for any violation ol the laws goverlng the sale ot liquor, f n attaching their names to the boDdthe sureties alio give a power ef attorney to the District Attorney to a confess judgment in the sum named for the recovery of all damages, costs, fines and penalties. The proprietors ot saloons in the heart of the citv, those in the Fifth, Sixth, Eighth and Mnth Ward?, will suffer to a greater extent than those in any Other Section of the city for want of bondsmen. As the law has been interpreted at present, the bondsmen must live in the ward where the saloon 1 located. In the Fifth Ward there are 309 saloons, and In the Sixth Ward 2X saloons. II all these places should be relicensed, there would be 1.138 different bondsmen, and It is a well known fact that there are not enough resident property owners in those wards to make np this number, especially among those wno would go upon the boads. Neirly all the property in these wards is of a valuable character, and tbe owners of tbe same reBide outside the ward. In Schuylkill County, Saturday was the last day upon which liquor license applications could be legally bled, and tbe clerk of the court was kept at hit post until a late hour. About C30 applications were made, which is 320 less than last year. Bricht's View of Peace Arbitration FniLADELrniA, December 12. Alexander T.

A MONTH'S EXPENSES

Pajments to Bentvclsst Icitifcti-Bi Ü3--Ujtd by Mr. Gnffiu's Uanecesixry Atjecj. The State onicrrs Finally Get Toxetheg and Make allowances According; to tbej Statements Submitted to Tbrm. The Governor, Secretary and Treasure? Of State, met yesterday afternoon aui ap piopriated funds to meet the monthly ex pen sea of the State Benevolent Institutions.' This should have been clone several days ago. bnt the absence of Secretary of Statt Griffin in Washington, on partisan business, delayed action nntil yesterday. The law provides that when a Legislature shall fail to make proper provision for tho maintenance of the institutions, the otliceis raised shall tet apart fanda for their monthly expenses, ex ept that auch monthly allowance! for each institution shall not exceed onetwelfth of tbe amount appropriated by the last preceding General Assembly. In the case of the Irvine Hospital the last appropriation was $200,000 for maintenance, $15.000 for repairs, and $12,O0C for clojhing. The monthly allowance fo-c maintenence would, therefore, be $21,000, whether the expenses of tbe institution were in excess of that sum or not, as t ha power of the officers named is restricted to one-twelfth of the sum for that particular UBe. The expense for November, as shown by the vouchers presented by the Board of Trustees and countersigned by tbe Superintendent were: Maintenance, m Mi; clothing, $1,000; repairs, $1,013. When the Trustees presented their claim for the December allowance they asked for the full one-twelfth of the $2t;o,00J for maintenance, but Treasurer Lemcka beld that the sum allowed could sot exceed the actual extense, and this view of it was concurred in by the Governor and Secretary ot State yesterday afternoon The fact that the Trustees asked for thia allowance led to a huge cry from the Journal, which assumed that they desired ia create a surplus fund to be used at their pleasure. Such an intimation was not only uriutt but malicious. The fact is that the exrensf-s at this time are exceedingly small. At times they nach In the teighborbood of $30.000,' cd if the appropriations are retricted to tie actual amount of expanse, as in the present case, when the incebtedc ess exceeds the monthly installment it canoot be met. It was for tula reason that the Trustees desired the entire monthly installment, that no trouble should arise in meeting obligations whta thej shall eiceed the sum of $21,603. Governor Porter held this to be the correct view teveral years aeo. and the fall sum wbs drawn monthly from the Treas urer's cflice, and that which remained as a surplus was used as a fund to meet the bills when they run over the amount which the State otlicer were empowered! to pay out. It is Intimated that Treasurer Leroicke's protest was due to a desire to bold the surplus money, that he might place the same out st interest and benefit bis own pocket. The State officers will no doubt find them sei ve in a very embsnacsirg pos'tion when the expenses run up to $25,000 or more and tbey fiod tbey csncot appropriate but one-twe-lfthof the $200,000. The rssponwbilty will rest with them and them only. THE SENATE COMMITTEES, Democratic Members as Arranged by thC Caucus of tbe Party. Washington, December 12.
