He attributes the efforts of the bears to
disparage the mines to their fear of be-

SOMEBODY who wants silly to disparage
Uncle William Aliens running powers in the
eyes of the ST. Louis Convention has been tel
ing story about the way he was outdone by
"a little pennyroyal bull" Uncle William on
his morning walk found the calf in his early
corn, and he started in after the intruder. He
''shewed" at it, but the calf was as unmoved
as specie resumptionist would have been.
Then he said something sky-blue, but the calf
was as calm as Uncle William Allen was the
morning after the last election. Then, saws
the story, she made dash for the brute who,
seeing that this attack really meant business,
started off on a run, with a snort of defiance.
Close upon his heels came Uncle William.
now thoroughly walked up. For time it was
lively race, but in the end the calf won,
and, exhausted and disguised, the human
gave up to the brute, and, painting for breath,
leaned up against friendly fence-rail for sup
port. AS soon as breath returned, UuncIe
William thus addressed himself to small col
ored servant who had been quietly enioying
the sport from his outlook in the shade: 81

the peer of some of the greatest men the CEN
tury ever produced, and none of them in de-
bate ever worried me so much as that double

THE New York Tribune's estimate of the
Republican Presidential canvass, to which we
referred to last week, was followed the next
day by sort of supplementary statement, in
which showing was made by Blaine man
even more favorable to Mr. Blaine than the
original one by the Tribune This is now sue
ceeded by statement from the Bristow stand
point, in which fifty-six votes are claimed for
Mr. Bristow on the first ballot, and, on the
second ballot, he estimates that what he pleas
antly calls ''the favorite son" business will be
dropped, and that the vote will stand: Conk-
ling, 134; Blaine, "a; Morton, SO; Bristow,
so. Then he says 81 guess" in regard to the
delegates yet to be elected.
The Tribune replies thus to the statements.
leaving the ''guesses" to be taken care of by
the future:
The Tribune's recapitulatiOn was inaccurate
only IN not giving enough votes to MIR. Blaine
and several other candidates Maine's IA del
egates were omitted from it, and there were
several other States where he had scattering
votes which were not counted. The vote of
Ohio on the second ballot was divided between
Didine anu brlStOw, as the friends OF each
claim large part of if. Mr.. Blainc's total
vote should have been 143, and Mr. Bristow's
"a. The report about the Nevada delegation
came just too late for insertion. 1t is merely
report, however, and the entire delegation
is still claimed for Blaine. 1t is not included,
however, in the 143 votes. The Vermont del
egatlon, according to best authorities, is equal
ly divided between Blaine and Bristow. The
former claims the whole of it, the friends of
the latter eight-tenths of it. The Tribune gave
half to each. The Wisconsin delegation was
elected by convention unanimously in favor
OF Blaine. Any indication that the delegation
is not unit for him has not been made public
The proof that Mr. Curtis and three other dele
gates from New York are for Bristow is mere
hearsay. Both Blaine and Bristow men clam
the Rhode Island delegation. There has been
no indication that either faction has any
grounds for so doing. The Hon. Morton Nc
Michael, who is delegate from Pennsylva-
MIA, says Conkling has no support in the dele
cation from that State, since his course in re-
gard to the Centennial has made him very un-
popular. The second choice of the Connect
icut delegation is not known. To say that it
is for Bristow or any one else is mere guess
work.
This is, of course, from the Blaine stand
point.

BristOw and His Organs.


There is little ring of Republicans and
mongrels, chief among them the managers of
the Cincinnati Commercial and the Spring
field Republican, which have no federation for
any candidate-not even for honest, able and
patriotic Hayes-save Bristow. Morton is
sneered at, Blaine is roundly abused, and
Conkling is treated like dog by all the men,
bers of the Bristow ring. We are not for
Bristow as first choice, yet we have not at
tempted to injure him, much less abused him,
as Bristow's friends have attempted to abuse
men who have never swerved in their devotion
to the Republican party. We have raised Ger
tain objections to Bristow. Not one of them
involves his private character; not one of them
detracts from his well earned reputation as
fearless manager Of an important department
of the Government. Chief among these OBJ
jections is the fact that he has not been long
enough in prominent public life to justify the
people in accepting him at this time. His rep
utation was purely local until a few msnths
since, when Grant, with the same character
istic indifference to what we call popular opin-
ion, selected an unknown man to be Secretary
of the Treasury. Apparently he has been
success; and had he proved failure, and his
appointment was an experiment, the very pa
pers which now see no virtue outside of him
would have been swift to condemn the Presi-
dent for selecting man who had held no
higher office than that of District Attorney in
Kentucky. We believe he will prove an ex-
cellent piece of leather when he has been in
the tan long enough to harden. Another OBJ
tility to the Civil Rights bill and his SYM

pathy with and for the conservative negro
hating nabobs south of the Ohio River, and
the very fact that he is Kentuckian gives
force to this objection. 1t may be the oppo-
site of an objection to the White Leaguers of
the South and the old Ku-Klux of Kentucky.
1t is serious objection on the Western Re
serve, and will stand in the way of Bristow's
nomination at Cincinnati. Still another OBJ
lection TO Bristow with the genuine Republi-
cans of the more northern portion of the
country, is the fact that his chief supporter is
the editor of the Cincinnati Commercial. The
State of Ohio is Republican, because the
Western Reserve is Republican. On the Re
serve the Commercials prominent support of
a candidate is regarded good evidence of the
candidates unfitness for the Office Repub-
licans do not care to accept the dictation of a
journal which is ''here tomorrow and gone
to-day, a journal having no possible sympa-
thy with anybody but itself, and known to
favor only those it can make useful to itself.

east of St. Clairsyille. He was familiar with
many of the men whose names appear in the
early history of Ohio. The Zanes, Wetzels,
Mills, and johnson boys, who were captured
by the Indians on Short Creek, and was even
beau of Patty Russel whom Henry johnson
afterwards married.
For number of years his sight failed so that
he could no longer distinguish the faces of his
friends, but his memory OF events that oc-
CURED in early life was very distinct, and like
most old people he took great pleasure in talk
ing over the scenes of his younger days, and
was very pleasant and entertaining COM
panion.
Such men will soon be no more, and their
names and memories ought to be preserved as
a part of the history of the country.

Anna DickinsOn's Debut in
Boston.

| BosToN, May 8.-The anticipation that a
numerous and brilliantly representative as
semblage would witness the first appearance
of Miss Anna Dickinson upon the stage was
fulfilled here tonight at the Globe Theaer
About 2. 800 persons were present The night
was stormy, but friendship and public interest
prevailed against tempest; and Miss Dickin-
son was greeted with much applause, six calls
before the curtain, and a stack of flowers
marked "Welcom., A. D."
If the social welcome be alone considered,
her stage event was successful If other
things be considered, it was not Her play,
"a Crown of Thorns," lasted two hours and
forty-five minutes. 1t is a thin tissue of level
prose dialogue on the story of Anne Boleyn,
involving seventeen persons. 1t is not re-
lieved by strong dramatic incident. Scenes in
Henry VIII" and SAKE and Crown" en-
body its substance, and are better. 1t is a
tedious place, done on the Giecommeti model,
made known here by Ristori. Its scenes come
over like the paddle-wheels of steamboat,
and are cut off at the caprice of the man at
the wheel. Half depicts Anne Boleyn cheated
of her lover, and goaded into resentment by
Wolsey. The other depicts her ruin at the
hands of Cromwell. The language lacks ele-
walton. Most of the characters ask political
conundrums. The impression left is that
Henry the Eighths reign was populous with
bores, and his fondness for decapitation had
good grounds. The last scene is taken from
Tom Taylors play introduced by Mrs.
Rousby.
dnne B0leyn is the whole piece and the
other parts are feeders. Miss Dickinson went
through it with masculine force. At points
where she could lecture she wa. effective
She showed dramatic instinct-some idea of
execution and much will. In art she was cal
low. Her presence as Queen was puny.
He voice was often nasal and thin. Her walk
was one sided. Her attitudes were mostly
crouched. Her emotion was that of the mind
and not the head. She does not burn, but she
glints. The face was often set in a stare to
emphasize tigerish disposition. Great stress
was laid on an apostrophe to Jane Seymour
and an expostulation with Lord Percy. They
sounded like walls from Martha's Vineyard
with the brethren in full possession. Had
Miss Dickinson adopted the stage in youth
she might have become q fair actress. 1t is
not easy to see how she could ever have be-
come an agreeable one. Her performance was
a potent exhibition of personal character, but
it lacked the attributes that charm.
Her h.arers were friendly and patient, and
wore their crown of thorns like good Bostoni-
an stoics. Should Miss Dickinson keep on in
this new pathway which she has chosen, in
despite of her lack of essential qualifications
and against her too evidently didactic grain,
she will very likely have to wear it herself.
Mistakes are not the less mistakes because
they are made with talent and vigor; and we
see no reason to encourage the idea that Miss
Dickinson is an actress because she dresses
herself in four gorgeous robes and goes into an
ecstacy of elocution.-[N. Y. Tribune.
