Burleson from whipping a young
man named Hill. The next morn
Ing the Gazleys met BurlesOn in

young Galley fired on Burleson,
who then drew his pistol and shot
Galley dead. The father coming
to the assistance of his son was
also shot dead by Burleson, the
shot killing him instantly. The
whole thing occurred and the two

thirty seconds. Burleson gave

On Friday night at about IL
O'Clock, the lava began to over
flow, and q long snake-like rivulet
took the direction of Pompeij.
The eruption was hardly expected,
for the smoke and vapor emitted
by the crater for some months
past In great abundance had some
what abated. On Saturday o tre-
mendous column OF white vapor
lowered over the abyss and the
reflection Of the burning furnace
from underneath on the feathery
cloud gave 1t . spendid crimson
tint, dying out into the most del
icate pink. Large quantities OF
cinders and lapill@ have been
thrown up. There is reason to be-
lieve that the eruption will be q

From an Old Journal.
w. III. Ladd, . Quaker, residing
In Brooklyn, sends the following
to the editor Of the New YORK
Tribune: In the Journal Of Ste
phen Glellett, . noted and moo(
worthy minister Of the Society oil
Friends, I find the following re-
cord, made in the fall OF 1908:
may not omit recording here
the death of Thomas Paine. A
few days previous to my leaving
home on my last religious visit,
on hearing he was i'll, and In q
very destitute condition, / went
to she him, and found him In q
wretched state; for he had been
so neglected and forsaken by his
pretended friends that the COM
mon attentions to a sick man had
bsen withheld from him. The
skin of his body was, in some
places, worn off, which greatly
increased his sufferings. A purse
was provided for him, and some
needful comforts were supplied.
He was mostly in state of stupor,
but something that had passed
between us had made such an inn
preston upon him that sometime
after my departure he sent for me
and on being told l was gone from
home he sent for another Friend.
This induced a valuable young
Friend, Mary Roscoe, who had
resided in my family and contin-
ued at Greenwich during a part Of
my absence, frequently to GO and
take him some little refreshment
suitable for an invalid. Cnce
when she was there, three of his
deistical associates came to the
door, and in loud unfeeling man
ner said: "Tom Paine, it Is said
you are turning Christian, but we
hope you will die as you have
lived" and then went away. On
which, turning to Mary Roscoe,
he said: "You see what miserable
comforters they are." Once he
asked her If she had ever read any
Of his writings, and on being told
she had read but very little Of
them, he inquired what she tho't
of them, adding, "FrOm such a
one as you / expect a correct
answer" She told him that when
young, his "Age of Reason" was
put into her hands, but that the
more she read it the more dark
and djstrnsspd che fnlt and aha
threw the book in the fire. II
wish all had done as you,' he re-
piled, "fOr if the devil had any
agency in any work, he has had
it In my writing that book"
When going to carry him some
refreshment, she repeatedly heard
him utter the language, ooh,
Lord" Lord God" or "Lord Je-
sus have mercy upon me-"

The great Bourbon OF the day is john
KELLY, dictator OF TammaDy Hall and
nominator Of bad candidates for offioe.
He forgets nothing and he learns nothing.
Last year he attempted to impose bad
candidates upon the people of this city
and to prevent the election OF good ones.
The independent press and the great body
OF independent citizens Joined in defeating
him, and his overthrow was signal.
This memorable event should have
taught a lesson to JOHN KELLY. but like a
thorough Bourbon, he seems unwilling to
learn anything; and now, in this Presiden-
tial year, he insists on loading up the Dem
ocratic ticket with candidate for most
important judicial office whom no sensible
man will trust and we dare say Others Of
his nominations are equally unworthy and
foolish.
Whether he does this out Of desire TO
defeat the reform candidate for President,
or from innate perversity of his own, mat
tiers little. Whatever be his object, the
people should resent and punish his &C
tons. Let his bad can didates be defeated
now, aud he will not again be able to out
rage common sense and insult the people
Of New York by repeating such nomina-

That DELANo c. CALVIN is not a proper
per son TO administer the delicate and in
trcate trusts coming before the Sur'ogate
OF the county OF New York has been clear
ly shown by his short but not honorable
career in this city.
Prior to his appointment by the Board
Of Supervisors to All the office OF Surrogate
for the time being, he was known as q poll
tcian, not as lawyer. Although he was
advanced in wears, his practice was meagre.
His political connections. not his profess
sional standing, procured him the appoint
ment His judicial incapacity is well IL
Illustrated by the now notorious reference
in the STARIN suit against the city, where
he considered that clerk in q lawyers

technical services In suits In all OF which
he had either abandoned the prosecution
or been beaten, the sum Of $4,000 year
from the city, sum greater in amount

than the salaries of any three Of our
Superior Court or Common Pleas Judges.
The claim upon which this astonishing
adjudication was made was entirely an
after-thought, the original party, 10 whom
the alleged debt 10 supposed to have been
due, having been content with the large
amount OF costs recovered In the ric-
cessful suite. Fifteen years elapsed from
the time In which the fret part Of the
claim had been incurred before THE enter
prising assignee, STARIN, commenced suit.
In all other cases q limitation Of six years
under the statute 10 sufficient TO bar re-
oovery and why this speculative assignee
should he privileged TO proceed. after the
lapse OF eight years from the date OF the
last item in his BILL has not yet been ex-
planned.
The facts show that the claim was got up
in bad faith; that II was acquired by
the assignee in bad faith that IL was
entirely of a speculative character; that
attempts we're made to have IL audited,
all of which failed, and that the Legisla-
ture refused to sanction IL; and yet here is
this Surrogate, acting as q referee. who
gravely adjudicates on the validity OF the
demand, and the reasonableness Of $4,000
year to an attorneys clerk for n period
Of seven years for merely clerical duties.
Now, supposing all this 10 be honest
and no man OF sense can admit a SUPPOSE
ton so charitable-if 1t is taken merely as
o test Of the capacity OF the referee. could
facts be conceived of that would prove
more conclusively his defective percep-
ton, to say the least, and his utter want Of
proper judicial discrimination In dealing
with cases in which large sums Of money
are involvedf

IL John Kelly Not False to His Party :

We have received letter arguing that
touN KELLY IL not treacherous toward Mr..
TuDEN, and did not make up the Tam
many ticket with view TO drive of the
great body OF honest citizens, not members
Of tho Democratic party, who have mado
ND their minds to vote for the reform can-
ditiate for President
We should be very glad to believe that
Mr. KELLY IL innocent Of such treacher-
Gus purpose, and guilty only of folly,
mulishncss, and inability to perceive the
extreme ndecency OF nominating for q
judicial Office the author of the infamous
RTARIH award. Why, II he had put up
WILLIAM M. TWEED, or THOMAS G. FIELDS
for Surrogate. would not people have said
he meant mischief toward the State and
National tickets when he put such noto-
rious rascal in nomination for such an
oficei And CAJvIN's SrARIN decision was
ns bad NJ any act ever committed by
FIELDS or TWEED.
But IL is not necessary TO inquire about
Mr.. RELLy's motives while his actions
speak for themselves so loudly. He may
be honest, and we hope he Is, but he will
have to prove ID. Let him take care that
every one of his followers votes for
TrLDEN and ROBINSON, and the genuine
reformers will see to II on their side that
no vote rghtfully belonging TO the reform
candidates for Governor and President is
host through disgust with the idiotic IL not
wicked conduct of Tammany.

Aud all tho people girded their loins ana prepared

Now the Republican, sought TO elevate to the dignity
OF Ruler OF their tribe named Haye', but tho Demo
cracia opposed TO him Samuel the Rcformer man Of
prodigious strength and merit.
Now Il came to pass that the Republican, saw with
dismAy the losions that nocked to the standard Of
Samuel the Reformer and they consulted one with the
other what they should do 70 make him odious In
the sight OF all the people.
Then arose Decoy Bliss and the Eiitor surnsmed

Let besmirch the person Of Samuel the Reformer,
and IL shall be that when the people MIN that

And forthwith they dAubed him with the untempered

added the extracts OF seniiy yacuiy and the lees Of

But the elements were nharmonious and incon-
gruous and would not scx. and served only 10 maze

And the people retaliated not but bded their time.
And the seventh day OF the eleventh month all the

And cswe to pass on the evening OF that day thai
