Congress meets next week and then Senator Ueveritlge will unlock his oratorical repository. A Brooklyn woman recently secured a divorce on the grounds that her husband hail not taken a hath for nine years.

David Ii. Hill says that he will support Bryan and the Chicago platform next year. David has been a good while coming too. A fashion note says that the custom of shaking hands is going out. The habit of crooking the elbow seems to be as prevalent as ever. Kansas City is determined to ha e the demofratic national convention. It has already raied $47,000 and proposes to swell the amount io,000 more.

cutioners of the plot to destroy the i Maine may he discovered. Two or j

three men were engaged in the destruction of the Maine. A steam launch of Spanish make and now used by the United States government in Havana hat bor, conveyed the two torpedoes, according to the now evidence, to a point within a few feet of the berth of the Maine ant! anchoret! them. The torpedoes

were kept in position by means of

buoys floated eleven feet under

water and ten feet above the anchors used to prevent them from being swept away. The torpedoes were exploded by contact with the keel of the Maine as she swung at a ichor. The rest is historv.

Since the wives of congressmen are trving to prevent the seating of Congressman-elect Roberts, let us hope that the three Mormon betterhalves are not red headed.

Young Winston Churchill, who was captured by the Boers and taken to Pretoria, s ys that their captors courteously offered the British prisoners cigarets. Is this a KrugerJoubert conspiracy to exterminate the British army?

The Indianapolis Journal says Editor S. E. Morss of the Sentinel has been in New York two t r three weeks where, it is understood, he is completing the arrangements necessary to start an evening democratic paper in our state capital. Latest reports from the bedside of

Judge Hayward, of Nebraska, are

to the effect that he cannot recover,

and his death is looked for at almost any moment. Should the gentleman pass away, he would in all probability be succeeded by Ex-

Senator Allen.

During the last congress Mr. Reed, as speaker, practically declined to aid the passage of a bill

legalizing the gold standard and re

forming the currency. Now that he is no longer in congress he urges that body to adopt the gold standard.

The Indianapolis Journal suggests

that his change is probably due to the fact that, with the senate as it

was two years ago, time devoted to

currency legislation by the house

would have been wasted.

Indiana's junior senator, the youth

ful and brilliant Albert J. Beveiidge,

will be heard from early in the approaching session. His knowledge of the Philippines, which in his foresight he obtained by a visit to these islands, places him in a position of prominence at once in the consideration of the Philippine question. He has twice been called into consultation by President McKinley and he will soon break his sphinx-like silence, having announced his intention of speaking in the senate on the Philippine question at the f '-pportunity. The st of the republican and demo ampaign committees of C re filed at Columbus yeste .ternoon, as required by law. " republican committee expended, according to its report, 891,123.97. The largest outlay is stated to have been in the conduct of the literary bureau, which furn ished every daily and weekly republican newspaper in the state with plate service and cartoons during the campaign. The democratic state committee reports receipts of 818,149.55, and expenditures of S17,998,58. The New York World publishes a letter from Havana stating that the United States officials, after months of secret investigation, have discovered that the battleship Maine was blown up by guncotton torpedoes planted in the bay for the purpose. The guncotton, 700 pounds of which was used, was sent from Barcelona to Adrniral Manterola, commanding the port of Havana at the time, and was either stolen from the magazine where the stuff was stored, or taken away with the knowledge of the officials in charge. Admiral Manterola's records will undoubtedly show the names of his subordinates who had direct control of the explosives and in that way the identity of the authors and exe-

NOT A CAM)I1)ATK. Newton W. Gilbert, of Angola, was in Indianapolis Monday. In response to a question as to whether or not he would be a candidate foi the republican gubernatorial nomination Mr. Gilbert said: "I would like to make the race this year when republican prospects are so flattering but I realize there are good men striving for the nomination and I will leave the way open for them. I want to thank my friends for their promised support, but I will not seek the nomination." From this statement, it appears that he expects to be the dark horse.
