DEMOCRATS WORRIED

They Wish They Knew Where to Place "The Peerless Leader." Indianapolis. Jan. 28. -The great question in the -minds of Democrats as to what course William Jennings Bryan, "the peerless leader" of four years ago is preparing to do in the present campaign and the anxiety which they do not fan to express over their inability to solve this mystery has caused much amusement to Republicans i here. The position of the Republicans was clearly outlined at the recent love feast here when the speakers on that occasion declared in a way that made an Impression that the Republican party knows where it , stands, knows what policies it will advocate in the coming convention which will draft the plaform, knows who its candidates will be and is able to meet any issue the opposition may bring against either candidate or policies. But the Democrats are in a lamentable condition. Bryan is ths questionable quantity. Will he stay with the party if the nominees and platform do not suit him j or will he bolt? This is the question j Democrats are having such hard work to answer. The stand the Nebraska j leader has been taking for high morality in politics gives him a chance to bolt consistently with recent utterances if he wrants to when the time comes. It will not be in conformity with his previous declarations for regularity, but that he must be reckoned with in this doubtful position is a fact that the leaders here admit to themselves. To the Republicans who are so well fortified the hopelessness of the Democratic position is amusing. Indianapolis people have had their eyes opened in the last few days. The exhibit of drawings and paintings by the newspaper artists of the city has been the means of giving them tho awakening. Most people here have become familiar with the work of these artists whose drawings appear daily in the papers, but they had no idea how much good work really was done by the pencil wielders. The exhibit has disriorseii this fact to them in a way they can not dispute and with the evidences of the mer.t of the work of the newspaper artists they have accorded a hearty if tardy recognition of the ability of the men whose drawings make the papers attractive. That the visitors to the exhibit appreciate the worth of the pictures has best been demonstrated by the manner in which they have hastened to buy the pictures. Several of the artists have sold over $200 worth of their work and the net proceeds of the sale of pictures will run away over the $1,000 mark. Indianapolis business men are preparing to wrestle with the problem before them of raising the $5,G00 needed to pay John Roberts for his land which is included in the army post site. Unless this money is raised at once so that the government can settle with all the land owners there is a bare chance that the post may yet be taken away from Indianapolis. There is little doubt that the sum needed can be raised in short order if tho public once comes to understand that the post is in danger. Business men generally, however, have held aloof because they felt that Roberts was making an unjust demand and they did not like the idea of assisting him to get more money than they thought he deserved. INTERESTING TO SOLDIERS A General Increase Is Proposed in Invalid Pensions. Washington, Jan. 2S. Representative Sulloway of New Hampshire, chairman of the committee on invalid pensions, has introduced a' distinctly service and age pension bill which will give to each soldier who has served ninety days and who reaches the age of sixty-two $8 per month; sixtysix years, $10 per month, and seventy years, $12 per month. In addition to r the above rates his bill give3 to tho men who served two years or more an additional increase of $2 per month in each of the above classes. The bill increases the minimum of pensions allowed to 88 per month, instead of $(?, which viil increase the pensions of 125,394 soldiers who are now on the rolls at $0 per month. The bill further provides that tho pensions of widows who married the soldiers prior to Jan. 1, 1870, and who are now on the rolls drawing $8 shall be increased to $12. Heretofore the law has been that they could not get $12 unless their husbands died of disease contracted in the service. This bill will give an increase to the men who served ninety days, and increases for the men who fought through the entire war, and also increases the pensions of the widows Who married soldiers during or immediately following the war. A Fast Six-Round Go. Philadelphia, Jan. 28. Jack O'Brien and Tommy Ryan , fought one of tho fastest six-round bouts ever seen in this city, last night, and the Philadelphian had a slight advantage. When the gong sounded for the finish both men were in very bad shape. Editor Will Meet in May. St. Louis. Jan.. 28.

Original. "Who's that slender, bine eyed, tenderfoot looking fellow over there?" inquired u passenger of the stage, driver during & change of horses, pointing to a man standing in the door of the express office. "That? That's Joe Eggleston. He ain't so meek as he looks. Jist ye get up alongside of me on the box for the next relay, and I'll tell you somethin' about him." In a few minutes the driver got the reins in between his fingers, the man holding the leaders let go and they flung away down the road. "Waal, as to Joe Eggleston." said the driver when the pace had settled down. I always thought Joe a quiet, inoffensive chap with no great. spunk till his affair with Jennie Uobbins. Jennie's people were poor enough to eat gopher ; meat, and as Jennie was as i.urty as a pietur' and had all the men in the neighborhood in love with her they wanted her to make a good match. Jennie was only fourteen at the time they set their hearts on her marryiu' Phil Steele, a big cattleman, but she had all the monkey shines of a woman of twenty. She wasn't bavin' much of a time when Steere asked for her, so she didn't object, thinkin' that with his money, she might make things hum. He was forty, crossgrained and mean as sawdust. "She hadn't much more'n said 'yes' when along comes Joe Lggleston. nineteen years old and as fair lookin' for a man as Jennie was for a gal. The men didn't think much of him. He seemed a timid sort of a feller anJ most of the time didn't even carry a gun. He was a clerk in the express olHce, and a man that dabbles in ink isn't ginerally much good for blood. But the wimnien all seemed to cotton to him. He had a way of lookin' at 'em out of thein blue eyes of his'n. At any rate him and Jennie jist went together like two magnets. Joe knowed that she was laid out for Steere, but that didn't keep him from bein' about with her a hull lot. "One day Joe sez to ber, sez he, 'Jennie, there's goin' to be a weddin' down at the City hotel in Park City.' Fark City was a relay station for the stage line. and. as to parks, they was on the maps of the town that was to be. 'What d'ye say,' sez Joe, 'to us goin'? After the pair git hitched there's to be a dance. " 'I'll go with ye, Joe,' she sez. 'but If Mr. Steere finds it out he'll put holes enough in yer body to make a culender of ye. Have ye got a gun?' " 'There's plenty of guns in the office,' sez Joe. 'I'll take a couple along in case Mr. Steere gits on to us.' "They lit out after dark, but, as bad luck would have it, one of Steere's cowboys saw 'em and went oft" to tell the big cattleman that his little bird had flown. Steere was kind of paralyzed at fust, but the more he thought about a measly clerk takin' his gal away from him the madder he got. He mounted the fastest horse be could find and dug out in the direction Joe and Jennie had started. He followed 'em all right enough till he came to where the road forked; then he took the wrong fork. This is why they got to Park City long before him. If they was goin' to git married, they'd 'a' had time enough for a dozen hitehin's before he come up, but Joe hadn't no money to support a wife. They was jist follerin the instincts cf two children of nature. It beats anything the way sich will run their heads into a noose jist for a little fun! "Waal, the weddin was over, and the guests was all a-slingin' a lively leg in the dinin' room, the tables bein' piled up agin tho wall. A fiddler stood on a bar'l scrapin' away a"nd callin 'Ladies changel' 'Alaman left! and all that. Joe was a-slingin' Jennie in 'turn corners' when all of a suddent Steere rode up to the open door and begun to pump lead into the room. The change that come over that dance was remarkable. There was a screamin' of wimnien and a swearin' of men, though none of the men raised a gun. for they never supposed Steere would be shootin' that a-way onless he was backed by a dozen or more of his cowboys back in the dark bold in' the drop on the crowd. "Then was when Joe showed up. Catchin sight of Steere outside and knowin' well what was up. he drawed with bis left band, for Steere had winged his right, and begun shootin'. movin' for'ard at the same time. Jennie she got out his other weapon, and as soon as he had emptied the first handed it to him, and he kept on pumpin'. "One of Joe's shots knocked the big cattleman off'n bis horse. Then one of the men said to Joe, 'Ye little fool, git out of this while ye have a chance.' Some on 'em hurtled Joe and Jennie out a back door, and they made tracks for home, leavin Steere to be carried upstairs to a room, where he lay for a month not knowin' whether he was a-goin to turn up his toes permanent or not. "Meanwhile som of the people told him If he ever shot into a dance agin they'd give him a chance to dance himself where the grass was too ohort The express company, hearin' abo( the incident, put Joe in charge of thelt treasure in transportation, givin' him a big salary, and he married Jennie six months after they went to the weddin" at I'ark'City. Since then Joe has twice saved a train from robbery and been loaded down with rewards. "No. sir. ye can't always tell about a man's pluck from bis appearance. Joe Eggleston is one of them niild eyed fellers that ye want to steer cle.tr of. But nobody knowed it till he turned on Phil Steere." - VICTOR S. BERNARD.
