that when they arrive at the hour Of their

call themselves leaders are, ia fact, only
followers, after all. They are powerless
except as interpreters. When it comes
to the ballot they represent only them
selves, and possibly their wives and wives

thinking, and need not be furnished with
facts or opinions. They have expressed
themselves Enthusiastically for Grant. They
desire to see the era Of prosperity and
peace under his administration continued.
They will avoid the scene OF confusion

THE GANG.
The burglars were well trained in their
calling, Every man had his part to do,
and did it perfectly. Some Of them wore
white masks, made like skull caps, with
{ openings for the ears, eyes and mouth.
One OF the men who were with the women
occupied part of his time in making gags,
which he did in the most skllful manner.
and hung them in regular order over the
towel rack. The other watcher reckless
ly passed to and fro in the room and kept
watch from the window. The leader
seems to have been recognized by all the
members of the family. After he had
robbed the safe, he returned up stairs and
gave his personal attention to securing
and gagging the family. lie is described
by Que OF the girls as a large, ugly man.
When she was asked why She Judged he
was ugly, she sad that his manner was
dlsagreeable and his voice was harsh. No
names were spoken, and each was refer.

called, and from this it was inferred that
there were about that number of men Gu.

men of considerable education and OF
gentlemanly manners. When they we're
about to tie Mr.. Van Hovenberg to the
bed, one of them said Hero that isn't
the way you want to lie," and immediate.
y took hold of him and placed him in a
better position. The man that was set
to watch the ladies, after making his gags,
reclined IN a lazy, scIf-possessed Lord
Dundreary style and conversed with them
Ia the most engaging mauner possible.
Finding that they were lying in uneasy
positions he fixed their pillows. He GOV.
cred the two girls who had been placed
on top OF the bed quilts, with quilts taken
from another bed. Seeing a pear in the
room, he politely offered it to one of them.

gentlemany manners of their unwelcome
