Inc, Cabell, your stupidity Is SIMPLY
exaSperating;-you have 10 right TO
be so great a goose. What Is all your
classical learning worth, if You do
not know that the princes OF ancient
Greece considered the care Of their
iocLs as worthy Of their personal at
tention;-and no people have ever
lived who cultivated physical beauty
and refinement more assiducuSly.
The beauty OF the human form and

The PicKENs- ENRIGHT election contest
Gaze in which WALTER PIcKENs, National,
entered proceedings to contest the election
of NJ. j. ENRIGHT, Republican, for the po-
sition Of Clerk OF Common Pleas, Lucas
county, came to sudden termination in
she Court of Common Pleas, Toledo, on
Monday. The counsel for the plaintiff. nf-
ter having a week to look up the case, de-
cided that from the ruling Of the Court
the witnesses could not be made TO testify,
therefore they submitted the case, which
left the contestant with the costs TO pay.
From the changing of the voting precints
prior to the election; the muddlsd eondi-
tion OF things fiom the advocacy of the
Sat doctrine; the trading, buying and sell
ling OF voters; the poor article Of whiskey
used, it is not difficult to tell that they had
an election down at Toledo, but we should
think it extremely difficult to tell who
were honestly elected, and why.

A'Bohemian picnic on Sunday ut Shades
saloon, on Fort street, was productive of a
free fight and general row in which Frank
Werka, Frank Skok and Jacob
Chaska were arrested and brought
before Judge Flint yesterday morning. 1t ap-
peared from the statement of officer Water
house that the proprietor of the saloon called
Waterhouse, stating that he thought a row was
about to commence. When the officer got in
side the row had commenced in earnest,
the mob appearing to be all set upon
one man-an Irishman. The officer
arrested Chaska whom he saw striking man,
when the whole body of Sabbath picknickers
rushed upon him--men, women and children
and tried to drag his prisoner from him. and
he was obliged to draw his revolver TO keep
them back. When the prisoners were
asked by the judge if they had
any witnesses, Skok said yes. fifty
OF them, and he proceeded to call them,
occupying the court nearly an hour. Men and
women testified that the policeman arrested the
wrong man, and they only wantec to rescue the
innocent man. Judge Flint continued the case

Ane Hero OF tho Muiiigan Letters Arrives
in st. Paul.
Hon. 1apaes G. Blaine, of Maine, passed
through this city yesterday afternoon en-
route for Minneapolis, where he will crate at
the Northwestern Exposition, now in pro-
gfess there. lie came on the regular train
OF lhe Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul rail
road, due here at 1:54, but owing to the fre-
quent stoppages required for the purpose of
taxing on passengers coming to visit the
state fair, the arrival was DELAYED an hour
ana MALT When the train finally steamed
into the depot, the hands on the clock point
cd to $3.50 O'Clock. Mr.. Blaine was met
down the road by senotor Mcmillan and
Mr. Frederick Drscoll, who pointed out the
beauties of Minnesota scenery as the train
approached the city. The train discharged
its cargo Of living freight, when ex-Gov.
famsey ana Bill Shelly proceeded to form
ally welcome the distinguished Senator to
Nlnnee ota soil and extend the hospitalities
OF the commonwealth to him. After some
persuasion he was induced to leave his car
and promenade up and down the platform
with Gov. Ramsey. Our noble fellow-citi-
zen conducted him to the forward part of
tho train, whore he proceeded to point out
the way progress is made on railways; dis
playing in his remarks a wonderful knowl-
edge of the mechanical arts. The Governor
concluded by quoting his fayorite extract
from holy writ:
God moves in mysterious way
His wonders to perform
Mr.. Blaine was edited, and for the nonce
forgot his apptehensions that some fend in
human form was lurking near to present him
with certified copy of the Mulligan letters,
and, inquire the price of Memphis and Lit
tie Rock railroad stock.
After looking about for a few moments
the senator received the hearty greetings of
few friends and acquaintance, the band
played a couple of lively airs and then he
embarked upon the train and was whisked
away. He vanished from sight like a beau
Eful dream, but carried with him cordial
invitation to visit st. Paul on Wednesday to
be present at the Republican State conyen-
ton. He promised to look in upon his
brethren and to aid their deliberations by
his counsel.
Mr.. Blaine is looking uncommonly we'll.
He shows no traces of suffering from the
Bunstroke with which he was prostrated some
time ago. He was modestly attired in suit
of black ribbed cloth, vest cut decollette, ex-
hibiting shirt laundried la heathen Chi
nee, ornamented with plain gold studs. He
wore straw hat, and a large mole graced
The northwest corner of his nose, greatly en-
hancing his natural beauty.
On the way up Mr.. Blaine was the sub
iect of honors by gatherings at the stations.
At Winona and Red Wing the citizens
turned out with bands of music, and brief
speech vas made to them. Mr.. Blaine also
responded to The popular demand at Hast
mgs.
