Bias Couzins Announces flerself a Candidate for Governor on the Prohibition I'latforiu, St Louis Republican. 'As yon are nominating Governors for til 3 Bta'e of Missouri, yon can just put me down 3 a candidate," said ex -United States Marshal Fhn-be W. Couzins yesterday to m Itepnblican reporter. 'Wtoat'8 tnat?"' eiclaJmed the reporter, doubting whether he understood the rein art. "I tay you may nominate me for Governor htd depend oa my working lo get the position." Still in doobt, the reporter smiled. "Oh! I'm in earnest. You will remember I told von some time ao that I would Ret even with a few gentlemen wbo took part in the moveruent that culminated in my removal, and I intend to da iL" "Oa what platform do you stand in this aspiration? ' asked the reporter. 'I will be a candidate on the Independent Prohibition ticket. You tire, no boubt, aware of the great and growing strength of this party, and the results of the next (lection will be a big surprise to some people, I have no doubt." "What has caused you to take this steo or Bpp;re to the position of Governor?'' "In the last election you will remember that I received a number of votes, though my name was never mentioned in connection with the office. This caused me to think it not impossible for a woman to hold the position, and I now place myself in nomitation on the Independent Prohibition ticket, with great hopes of being elected." In a farther conversation on other subjects Miss Couzins informed the reporter that she had received an invitation from the. farinltir of MTv anctroa f!rt11n n f T.aK. anon. 111., to appear there and deliver the ) as yet accepted the invitation, but would ' do so in a few days. "I have received a letter from my friend. Miss Susan B. Anthony, in which she asked me to take the helm of the womaa'e suffrage movement in this country, and, as she sajs, 'pilot it to a successful issue.' If I accepted her oiler it would take me away from this city, and, as I am in the rialdfor Governor, I am afraid I cannot do it. I have also received several excellent offers to go into the lecture field, but, owing to my rheumatic ailment, it would be impossible for me to travel over the country as I would be obliged to do; and besides, I would not leave my mother, who has no companion now tut myself. The other day I received a letter from an Eistern newspaper syndicate in which they ask me to write for them, giving generous pecuniary inducement if I would do o." "Would you write in the ila Wneeler Wilcox etjie?" "Oh, my, no. She writes about dress, fashion atd fair complexions. My writing would be entirely political. I have written political articles for the locl pipers a number of times, some years ago, and I think I have improvad some sines then." During the conversation Miss Couzins was as cheerfull and chatty as a highschool piil, and gave the reporter to understand that she meant everything she said, aa she certainly does. Since Miss Coazins left tte United States Marshal's offlca and relieved herself of the care and worry incident to it, ehe has impoved in appear acce, and a pretty rose-tint is perceptible on ter cheeks. How Billy Patterson Was Struck. it, Louis Globe-Democrat. About forty years ago, at one of the medical colleges of this country, the students bad a trick of hazing eyery new mm who entered the institution. They would secure bim band and foot, carry him before a mock tribunal and there try him for sorxe high caime with which they charged him. lie would be convlctefl, of coarse, and sentenced to pe led to the block and decapitated. A student named William Patterson came along In time, and was put through the court and sentenced in the usual solemn and impressive manner. He -was blindfolded and led to the block, and his neck placed in position. The executioner swung the axe and buried it in the block, allowing it, to be sure, to go nowhere near Patterson's head. The students laughed when the trick was at an end. bat Patterson was dead. lie had died from what we medical men call shock. All the stc dents were put under arrest, and the ouestion arose "Who fstruck Patterson?" On the trial it was hown that nobody struck him, but the medical students retained the expression, and It has come down through them to the present day. Shot Dead in a Carroom. Wacac, Wis., January 1. Louis Bailer -was shot dead at C o'clock to-night by Louis Schilitz. The former owned the City Hotel, and the latter the Hotel Northern. Butler had been going from saloon to saloon with five companions, and engaged in a quarrel with Schilitz in the barroom of tbe Hotel Northern because tbe latter refused to tell tbe party drinks. They grappled, and Schilitz drew a pistol and shot him. Schilitz hurried to the jail and surrendered himself. Several hundred rten surrounded the jail, determined to lynch him. Sheriff Healey declared that be had a posse of men armed with. Winchesters, and any hostile attempt would be met with a volley. The crowd then dispersed. ,

Ttu Line extension lrom Lincoln to Troy, City and Cannelton was otened vesterda the first train arriving amid booming ot cannon, rinsing of bells and screeching of I earn whittles. Deputations of citizens, beaded by the Mayors of the several cities, n.et the train at arious points en route, and the day was made a holiday by general proclamation. Public buildings and residences were decorated and refreshments provided for the visiting officials. This opens up a new era for this section of the Cbio Valley, which has heretofore had no railroad connection with the outside world. The people of this vicinity are rejoicing as they have never done before, as they believe that their hopes for future prosperity are better than ever before. Their railroad was promised them as a New Y ' s gift, and the promise has been folt lied. A 1 cular Death. KtHviiLE, January 2. Special. Bather a singular and sudden death occuried here a few days ago from the eflecia of over exertion in a colored ball room. William Try (colored) was said to wear a corset tightly laced on such occasions, and while dancing slipped and fell one? or twice, causing internal Injurie wLith caused bis death in bss than fortyeight hours. He was burled yesterday. Fireman Killed. Hlmikgtow, January 2. Patrick Collins, fireman on a freight on the Chicago and Atlantic Railroad, was instantly killed yesterday at Spencerville, O., sixty miles east of this place. He was under the engine cleaning out the fire-box when the engine moved. Collins leaves a family in this city and is well knowE. An inquest is now being held. The Eighth Congressional District. Brazil, Ind., January 2. To the Editor of the tientinel. Sir The time is at band when it is appropriate to introduce the names of political favorites as candidates for Cocgreas in the campaign of 1383, and there are many reasons wny our selections should be wise. There are Itepnblican Congressmen in the Indiana delegation to-day representing (?) Democratic districts, Kepublicans, in fact, misrepresenting their constituencies, a etate of tbings that should not be tolerated in future. Notable among these Is the Eighth District, with a Democratic majority of 800, now the constituency of the Hon. James T. Johnston, a Republican. This is to be changed, and the Democracy of tiie district set right and given ttieir dues. The one thing needful to win In this district is an acceptable candidate for congress. This we must have, or tail as heretofore. Many honorable names have lately been mentioned for the position, any one of whom, doubtless, would make an ab;e representative. Dut the important question is, which one, if any, could be e;ec.ed? It is n Jt our puioso t-j discourage fcectlemen, but we do hold that Clay county has a man pre-eminently equipped to take the field iu the coming contest, a man who could be elected, and his name is .Samuel M. McGregor, of the flounshine little city of Brazil. His location is the best, being in the very heart of the great coal fields whose population holds the balance of power in this district. None stand better with the mining element thaa Mr. McGregor, who stands best wherever best known. lie is a Democrat who nnder. 8 1 and 3 the W9.ntä nf the ne.nle anrl wrhrt would not be afraid to legislate in their In terests. mm2 -As a lawver. Mr. McGrpwnr sbinrliat tho head of the Clay county bar, and has few equals in tbe district. As a politican, he is bright and eaual to emergencies. Not over enthusiastic, his course is the embodiment of sound judgment and steady valor. As a debator, he is able to cope with any opponent whom the Republicans might bring against him. Should Mr. Johnston again be the Republican choice, he would look like the afternoon shadow of another man after facing McGregor's piagent speeches. Mr. McGregor being a scholar, hi3 epeach flows like quicksilver through the dirt and linguistic debris of the Jim Johnston dialect. In a word, the Hon. Samuel M. McGregor, of Clay county, is the coming man of the Eighth Congressional District, and no mistaae. .i A Democrat. The Monroe Democracy. Bloomingtok, Ind., January 2. 3peclaL Monroe is ready and anxious for the next campaign. We will send to that meeting tbe leaders of our party Hon. R. W. Miers, our nest Secretary of State; Hon. C. R. Worrall, one of the seventy-six who voted for Senator Turpie, and for whom his party bas othr honors in store; Captain J. C. Dolan and County Superintendent Craven, two of the best organizers in the county. They are all young men, and under their guidance the campai-a in old Monroe will be well organized and red-hot. Hendricks clubs will spring op in every precinct soan, nealEOhave Hon. J. R. East with us again, and Monroe will be solid for him for Congress. The parly is entirely harmonious, aud township conventions have already been called for early in March to select delegates to all conventions. We are all for Cleveland tor President, Governor Gray for Vice President, iiatson for Governor and East for Congress. Witlthis ticket Monroe Coanty, the Fifth congressional district and Indiana are Democratic beyond all doubt. Governor Gray and Colonel Matson are especially strongin this Fifth district and idolizod by their party for their true Democracy and feealty to party friends and the records they have made; the one for his dignified statesmanship and vigorous, energetic and talented Democracy, and the other recognized as both a Congressman of ability and the special champion of the soldiers, and each would add 500 votes to the ticket in this Fifth district. Lafayette Items. Lafayltte, Ind., January 2. Special. Captain Bogardus, tbe champion wing shot, is to visit Lafayette on the 4th LnsL, and contest with Fred Erby, of this city. in a pigeon shooting match. Many shootlsls are expectod from neighboring cities to witness the contest. M. P. McMannus, foreman of the Lafayette Paper Mills, fell into one of the bleach tubs at the mill, and hia feet were horribly burned up to the knees. Fortunately for the ra an, he alighted on his feet, and did not pitch forward on his hands, as is so often the case with accidents of this kind. This is the third accident of the kind occurring at these mills. Adverse Telephone Decision. Lafayette, January 2. Judge D. V. Vinton, of the Tippecanoe Circuit Court, to-day rendered a decision in favor of the f lainiia in the case of Falley vs. the Cenral Union Telephone Company, holding that tbe tolls system, under which the Telephone Company is operating in this State, is an evasion of the law, and that the company must furnish telephones to patrons at the rate provided by the statute 13 per month. An appeal will be takea by the defendants. This is tho first decinja
in this State, made on the question, on which a large number of suits have been brought at various points. aBBjBjaaasjaawaaaaansaa C Fell on a Picket Fence, Ete. Seymocr. January 2. ISpeciaL Mistf Clara Hunsucker, residing in the western part of this county, accidentally fell on top of a picket fence the other day, face downward, and was so severely injured that ter condition is very critical.

"Oae of the finest poultry shows that has w."ea held in eastern Indiana for many yearv closed to-day.- Over 600 fowls were exhibited and several hundred dollars given away in premiums.

The "Regulators" paid their respects to Marion Dewey, of Ramsey Station, this county, Saturday night. Dewey managed to free himself from the "Regulators" while the flogging was going on, and made bis escape by running into the woods. He says that he was not told why he was whipped, and thinks that there was a mistake made somewhere, as he baa been guilty of nothing that merits the punishment. Shooting at Muneie. JlrrJciE, January 2. Special. An altercation occurred here yesterday between two colored men, McCowen and Parker, which resulted in McCowen receiving a dangerous if not fatal shot in the shoulder. Tbe physicians have not as yet been able to find the ball. Tbe preliminary trial has not yet occurred, and the cause of the difficulty is not known, but it is reported to be a case of jealonsy. Miners' Life Insurance. Era z Ii., January 1. On acconnt of the great perils of their occupation, miners find it difficult to obtain life insurance policies. Many, however, insure in secret orders.

Jafi-ik, January 1. The silver find in this county is proving a veritable bonanza. The Jasper Courier says that the silver mine at Rock Shoals began smelttng the ore on Thursday of last week, and ran three days, when they were compelled to shut down because their pump proved not to be strong enough to supply water. The run for the three days is estimated to have yielded bars worth $3,000, or an average of $1,200 a day. The company telegraphed Saturday for a large steam pump, and will r e ready to go to work again by Monday, lhe surprising yield of the ore is highly gratify ine to the stockholders of tne company, and fully jastifies Mr. Hartsfeld's n diction after his analysis. The ore is in x'tat abundance, and extends for twenty u. ilea through the country, and already ow: c-rs of land in several localities are hsvirg specimens tested, preparatory to piti'r g up eme?ter8. ProDably within twelve months fifty smelters will be at wi.ik. Who paid Dubois County wasn't thv bist in the Union? Let her boom. Funeral of Don. IV. A. Uoiihsm. llARTFoau City, January 1. Special. The funeral services of the Hon. V. A. Bon ham were conducted at the Grace M. E. Church to-day, in the presence of a large assemblage.

N. II. Phillips was very impressive, and was well received. The I. O. O. F. took charge of th remains, and the obsequies were conducted by that order, of which Mr. Bonham was a member. An Indianapolis Coal Road. Brazil, January 1. The Evansville and Indianapolis Railroad Company has filed articles of incorporation, with a capital of $1,000,000. Beginning at Indianapolis It is proposed to build a road through Marion. Hendricks, Putnam, Clay and Green to Sullivan County. It is reported to be backed by Eastern capitalists. Its directors are D. J. Mackey, G. J. Grammer, W. J. Lewis, E. B. Morgan and Edwin Taylor. If built it will insure Indianapolis against a coal famine.

A heavy wind was raging at the time, aud It was with the greatest diliiculty that several Other buildings were saved. The fire is supposed to have been the work ot an incendiary. The loss is estimated at $1,800 with sn irsursncc of $1,310 in the Hartford. Glenwood I'oitoflice Trouble. Gleswood, December 30 Special. . Murphy, recently under arrest, aud his clique have knowingly mlsrepresentad affairs concerning the Glenwood poatofilce from beginning to end. The Indianapolis Journal stated tnat Murphy Ivoluntairly went before Judge Woods, and was fined $10 for interfering with the United States mails. Anyone who is acquainted with the fact knows that Murphy did not voluntarily go before Judge Woods, but he was arrested by a United States mail detective, and placed under bond. Murphy states that he told Cook, after be got the office, that it had to be removed from his bouse, and he refused to do iL This is a wilful misrepresentation and not a word of truth in it, for it was the intention of the people to have the office moved up in town ana Cook never said word to
Murphy about refusing to take it out of his building. Cook never told Murphy to Iocs: the door as was etated. He asked Murphy for the key and was refused, then Murphy locked up the office in the evening and refused to unlock it the next morning until he went to Rusaville and conEulted legal advice, and then telegraphed back to a young man by the name of lies to unlock the office. Tbe article in the Journal stated that the people would not trust the postmaster with their mail, but carried it half a mile to the train. The people who are acquainted with the facts know that the previous statement is a base falsehood, concocted by Murphy to deceive the people. It also states that Cook put in a deputy of unsavory reputatioa. This is an untruth, and spun by one whose reputation for truth would be worth nothingl before a court. Tbe deputy was a man respected by all wbo know bim, and no one has ever Lesrd of him being charged with untruth Or dishontBty.

James Whitcomb Rilew An Old-Time Maine Politician. Richmond (Me.) Bee. John Holmes, one of Maine's first Senators in Congress, was more of a wit than a lawyer, more of a politician than a Btate3man, and waa ready in debate rather than strorgin argument. In a debate in Congress on nullification Berne oae sneerin?ly aaked: "What has become of the old firm of James Madison, Flix Grua-iy, John Holmi s, and the devil?" "Mr. Speaker," said he "I will tell the gentleman. The first member is dead, the second has goneto retirement, and tbe last one has gone over to the nnlliCers, and is at work among the gentleman's constituents, and I pronounce the firm legally disoslved." In a family quarrel aboat a piece of land some one said, pointing to a field: "Pnisii the devil's hopyard." "If bo," replied Mr. Holmes, "the aevil must be dpai, for his sons are qi vreling over tLe inheritance." "Then you expect to prevail," 'said his apponent, "for your client 13 the eldest." it is not certain," said he. "My client is the eldest, but yours is tbe most deserving." Having listended.'to a sermon against slavery from the text, "Kemember those in bonds as bound with them," he remarked: "This text has noa llusion to slavery." "But," replied his friend, "you mail admit the arguraeatls just as good, though the text does not refer to the subject.'' "It reminds me," said Holmes, "of tbe clergyman who preached from the text, 'And David took from the brook three smooth stones.' 'Now, my hearers, I intend to prove and explain by these three stones the doctrine of the Trinity.' 'It was five smooth stones,' said the deacon very respectfully. 'Well, my hearers, I made a small mistake L? the fact, but it makes no diflerenee in the argument.' " Although he had been during hia political life a convivial companion, fond of the social glass, in later years he was an efficient advocate of total abstinence. Jay Gould's Friendship. N. Y. World. George Dickinson, of the Consolidated Exchange, sat in the Windoor Hotel corridor the other night and told a few friends with whom he was chatting comething about Jay Gould. "They can say what they like about the little man," said Mr. Dickinson, "but he has his good qualities. I always take men as I find them, and I found that Mr. Gould, in a certain emergency some years ago, was made of the right Etu3. I was about broke at the time, and didn't know exactly where the money was coming from to pull ma through. I knew Mr. Gould pretty well, and called at his house one morning, determined to ask him to help me out. I waited in his library while the servant tooi him my card. When he came down we shook hands, and he asked what was up. 'Mr. Gould,' I began, 'I'm broke, and ' Bat be cut rxe short. 'George,' said he, 'how much?' 'Seven thousand,' I replied. 'Well, just call at Charley O&born's oiSce in the morning and get tbe money.' A day or two later a man gave me a point on wbich I made big money, and I Boon paid off the loan. Who was the man? Jay Gould." Deep Tbeolorical Disc nssion. Ban Francisco Cnron'cle. Their grandma had just given them a nice dinner, and the children, feeling grateful, were discussing the question of thanks. "How nice it was of grandma to buy all tbose nice things for Thanksgiving dinner. We ought to thank God for the dinner." - "No," said another little tot, "we must tbank grandma for th dinner, and thank God for grandma." "Let ns do all the thanking at once, and tbank God for grandma and the dinner." "No," said the first, "we must thank grandma for the dinner and God for grandma, 'cos there's plenty of dinaers, but we've only one grandma," Novel Way or Feeing a Waiter. The Hotel Gazette. An old traveler has discovered a unique method of feeing the hotel waiter so as to secure the best results. He says: "At the beginning ot the first week at the hotel, should the attention of the waiter prove satisfactory, I quietly take a fi re dollar bill irom my pocket, crease it across the center, and, with a pen-knife, cut it in two pieces. At the end of the meal I present the waiter with ore half, placlng;the other in my pocket-book, with the remark that if hlä attentions continue satis'actory I will, at the end of the week, present him with the other hall. This scheme works like a charm." He Didn't Look at It. Nebraska State Journal. "Johnnie, when wfll your sister be down? I'm getting awfully tired of waiti it "She'll be down In ten minutes, I guess."

PEOPLES ON THE GOLD CO
Their Savagery Equals that of Any Kuown Community. London Field, Although a ereat portion of ths Tabiepeaking peoples have for two centuries been under our rule, we know comparatively little about them a faet which is, co doubt, attributable to the deadly climate and impenetrable forests in which they live. Major Ellis tells us much coneerning these peoples which will be found interesting; but he has gone so completely into the grosser customs of netive life that his book is more suited to the anthropologist than the general reader. The low condition which they oicupy In the intellectual scale is, we are told, probably owing to the enervating influences of the climate, which renders any great amount ot mental labor out of the question, and to the readiness with which tne necessities of life can be produced. That the climate is unhealthy even to tbem there can be no doubt, as it is the cause of diseases unknown elsewhere. Their religion Is not allied with any moral ideas, sin beleg limited to insults oSered to or neglect of the gods; murder, theft, etc., are merely offenses against the person, and in which the gods take no interest. The deities may be divided into four classes, viz. : 1. General, those worshiped by a whole tribe or several tribes. 2. Local, those worshiped by the inhabitants of certain towns or districts. 3. Family. 4 The tutelary detaies of individuals. The priesthood forms a large and powarlui class, without whose aid nobody can hold any lntercouree with deities of the first second, or third clara, large saau baing frequently paid for their services; the have to take care, however, to maie th-nr communications ambiguous, as, in cass of teir rredictioEB being falsified, they are not infrequently put to death. In Chapter 11 it is stated that the practice of sacrificing human beings at funerals does not arise from the blood thintiness of the peopld, but ra'her from allection of the dead. This may be true ; but the fruhtful cruelly shown in their executions eeems to contradict this theory. We quote the following as an example: "On Jnce 5 a murderer, with his hands bound behind him, a knife through his cheeks, ana two forks piercing his back, was dragged past our rooms. Commencing at midday, the punishment increased in intensity till 8 o'clock, when the poor wretch vas gashed all over, his arms cut off, and L mself compelled to dancs for the amusem tnt of the King before being taken to th 9 place of execution. If he could not or wo.ld not dance, light el torches were applies to his wounds. To escape this exceesi ve torture he made the greatest etfjrts to mcTe, until the drum was baaten and the he d cut off." Btrat'ße to Bay, in spite ef the frightful pcnishiiiJnt, murder is mere frequent in Asbanti than in the British protectorate. The cete monies at birth. marria;s and death are, we think, rather tco fully gone into. The cnmfaal laws appexr tobaex trftnely sev-9, und ttie following ridiculously trivial offenses are punishable by aeatn: v rustling in comassie; satianag an egg to be broken in the town-, looking at th King's wivf a. or not biding when the King's eunnchs call to announce their approach, and picklo? cp gold hat bss been dropped in the raarkt-p!ce. Frora this it will be seen that everyday life in Coomassie muet have its drawbacks. The three concluding ch inters are on th lacguage, music and traditions, eath of which is treated at length. This wert is evidently written by one whose knowlsdge of his eubject is not ce-ely suoTfic'al, tad wbo muät havo devottd considerable time and atlention to the matters of whicL he treats, thcugh, as we heve before hinted, it is not tbe port of book to be pUcei iu t23 hacds of ladies or your.g peop'e. The Imiip New York 8tav. The keynote of the President's recommendation is tbe concise but pregnant statement that the problem that confronts us is a condition, not a theory. The great and growing Barplus is a financial peril and a menace to trade and manufactures. It cannot be allowed to continue to accumulate, as it does, under existing laws, without financial panic and industtial collapse. The expedients to which the executive can resort under the statutes now in foce are well nj;h exhausted, legislation is Imperative. What shall that legislation be? There are two theories about it. The Democratic theory is to cut oil taxes and leave the money in the pockets of the people, while cheapening the things they must eat, wear and use in their employment. The Republican theory is to continue tbe taxes, chiefly for the benefit of seme manufacturers whom protective tanfl favors, and to spend the money lavishly in various ways throughcut the different portions of the country. These are the two policies between which the country must decide. The President a message is a clear enun ciation of the Democratic nlan, and the ppeecbes and interviews of John Sherman, Foraker end others expose the Republican method. The Democratic way is not de signed to inteifere with, any body 'a employment or wages. The President says: "ine reduction oi taxation should be so measured as not to necessitate or justify either the loss of employment by the worklngman or the lessening of his wages, And again: "Profits Btill remaining to the manufacturer, after a necessary readjustment, shonld furnish no excuse for the sacrifice of the Interests of his employes, either in their opportunity to work or m the dim icutlon of their compecsat'.on." Tbere is co doubt that the reductions can acd will be bo managed that tbe laboring masses of the country will gain much more than they can loose by the change. Neither the President nor tbe Secretary of the Treasury has presented a detailed revenue bill. That will be attended to by the proper committee of the honte of representatives. The executive oncers have laid down the general principles upon which a revenue bill should be drawn, and indicated their preference fyt one kind of reduction over another. It may be that an alteration or abolition of internal tax on tobacco will be eifected. Tobacco is a luxury, it is true, but one widely nsed by a great portion of the people, and it is a great American product. If the internal tax on tobacco wer abolished ft ia probable that, under any readjustment of tbe customs, importation of that article would be so reduced as to effect a great decrease in revenues from that source. Bat, as a general rule and aa a matter of princi ple, SecretartFalrchild properly maintains that taxes on necessities should be preferred in making ' reductions to taxes .oa luxuries. Mr. Blaine's hasty and sketchy Paris in tervlew contains no new proposition re garding Inland revenues, but only one to abolish the spirit tax, which has been long and earnestly advocated by many Democrats as well as by some Republicans. He opposes the abolition of tbe whisky tax as we. in common with most usmocrats, op pose it. But when it comes to the question of the surplus, then it Is that the Republican residential candidate takes his stand on tha ground of his party in opposition to the attitude of the Democracy, uis leading thought is how to spaed the surplus, not how to prevent a surplus. Blaine's interview only tends to mike clearer the issue between Democracy and economy on the one side, and.the Republican scheme of excessive collections aud lavuh expenditure on the other. It is just such an issue as the Democracy is ready to go before tbe country on after a congressional session of careful legislation, in which tbe interests of the toiling masses of the country, farmers as well as factory hacds. merchants as well aa manufacturers. and consumers as well aa producers, will be all duly considered with A TTT t9 pro

There are frequent scenes with office seekers and claimants of various kinds at the White House afternoon receptions, and the prefqrmances are often as ludicrous as the performers are persistant. Oae of the best known characters of this kind is a woman who has a pension claim, and she is on hand at every reception, and haunts the President with a peraeverence that must be agonizing. Yesterday she was present, as usual, and missing her chance as the other visitors passed, she rushed wildly e.fter the President as he walked down the corridor. She headed him off, and grasping him by the hand remarked: "How do you do, Mr. Cleveland? A happy New Year." Then gathering him by the coat collar, before be could make any response ehe leaned over and whispered confidentially in his ear, at the same time forcing in his hand a formidable looking document. 'They bave ordered the payment of the claim, Mr. Tresldent," she finally exclaimed aloud. "They have ordered piyment; or, at least the v will if I can only get your signature. Oh! do sign it, Mr. Cleveland, and I will be so grateful to von," and In her enthusiasm she foil upon lhe President's broad expanse of sMrt front andi8tniled effusively. 1 The President tried to return the smile, I but it was a sickly effort, and as he glanced gloomily at the document now in his pos session, be only said; "I will do what I can." The few lingering visitors who witnefsf d the scene were visibly amused, and the President, with a weary air, departed. A DIood-Thirsty Document. New York, December 30. Copies of the following blood-thirsty document were circulated on the streets this morning, where workiDgmen could get them: Tcrch and bomb nust Le applied. Fellow workmen: The hour ;haa come. The agencies of science must play a part in the struggle of the future. Yesterday it was the slaughter of our comrades at Chicago. To-day it i3 the assassination of 00.000 of our brothers oa the Philadelphia A Reading Railroad system. True, the sword is the weapon ofjeircumstances, but their victims perish all the eame. Do not waste your force on the scabs: they ere only the effect of our present damnable commercial and competitive system. Destroy, by all the agencies at your command, the direct representatives of the system, the Corbins, the Maxwells and the Goulds. Let the torch, thr bomb or the bullet strike tbem dot. Let all they possess be elven to the 11 am es;' hound them day and eight. The strike must" be made the war of the classes. Brothers, remember Chicago and your oath. j CongrcMmso ISyiium.
