IT is fact that the majority of the more
intelligent Greenback leaders have been
great real estate spectators in times past,
and are now "land-poor.' 1t is also fact
that their opponents are of the class who
have spcculated in stock securities during
and since the war and are now bond
" rich" This classification of the leaders for
and against the ideas broached by the
Grconbackers or Nationals, or whatever
they may be called, does not extend to
their followers, among whom may he found
people Of every class in life and Of all kinds
of business and political antecedents 1t
will be interesting to note the changes that
will occur in the pcrsonnd of this motley
crew as business improves in the country
and commercial prosperity is asserted with

IsNT ii about time that our English
cousins should abandon all hope Of success
in contests OF any kind with American
sporting men? Captain BoGARDUs seems
to have carried of laurels enough to COM
pCnsate in pant for our losses in the fishery
award, which will probably remain the one
single disaster OF American diplomacy OF
this generation. 1t is perhaps among the
eternal fitness of things that this disaster
should have occurred. When John Bull
feels sore over a defeat of any kind by
America he has the opportunity to slap his
pocket and say, truthlully: Well, we beat
EN- lin the fishery harvard, hanyway."

is significant in high degree of the Drift
Of popular sentiment. Mr.. FOSTER added
with some emphasis that the President by
his courso had alienated most of the leaders
and the great mass of the Republicans.
This may he regarded rs n c1gnorh on the
part of the President himself, for no man IN
the country stands nearer in the relations
OF personal friendship and political con-
fidence with President HAYES than Mr..
FOSTER, and hence his utterances hear
significant weight at this time and upon
this occasion.
We again rcitente the opinion and hope
that Mr.. FOSTER will be returned from this
fraudulentiy gorrymandered district as an
act of poetic justice. He is q stalwart Re-
publican, though, perhaps, heretofore he
has been slightly handicapped by his init
mate relations with the President; but he
is sound, nevertheless. He has proved him
self an efficient useful, and honest legisla-
tor in behalf of the general and best inter-
ests Of the country. His sympathics and
laborers were in q marked degree in behalf

A Bahy's Adventure.

On Sunday morning week Mrs.
Charles Rau, a young married woman
living at No. III Bushwick avenue,
Brooklyn, gave birth to a fine healthy
infant. Mrs. Rau's mother, Mrs. Ma
lonce, went to help take care of her
daughter and grandchild. OF the latter
she was very proud, and Sunday evening
she wrapped it up and called on several
neighbors to exhibit it, The health of
the baby was drunk several times, Mrs.
Malone doing her part with vigor, and
finally when Mrs. Malone got through
making calls and started for home she
found that the baby's health had been
a little too much for her, sat down on
doorstep and soon she was asleep.
When she awoke she left the baby lying
on the stoop and went home alone. Just
as she was entering the house she missed
the child and went back and called at
all the places she had previously visited,
but could get no clue to its whereabouts
at that time. Afraid to return home
without the precious property she kept
up the search till Tuesday morning when
completely tired out, she went and con-
fessed to her daughter and son-in-law.
The search for the child was resumed,
but without success, and finally Mr..
Rau appealed to the police for help. He
then found that his baby had been pick
ed up by the police and handed over to
the Charity Commissioners and they in

turn had given the child up to Mrs.
Catherine Heidsman, of 118 Hopkins
street, for adoption. Thither Mr.. Rau
went, but he was not permitted to take
possession. Yesterday morning he call
ed on Mrs. Heidsman again, accom-
panied by three friends carrying letter
from.a lawyer, in which formal de-
mand for the REIMBURSEMENT of the
child was made. Mrs. Heidsman only
snapped her finger at the written de-
mand, and said she would not give up
the baby unless compelled to do so by
an order from the judge of some court.
Mr. Rau, not wishing to go to court,
left the whole matter in the hands of
one of the Charity Commissioners, who
will get the child back and restore 1t to
the afIi iicted parents.-N Y. World

Suspension of a Bank.

WAsHrNGToN, October 91.-The Ger
man American National Bank, an in
stitution which grew out of the German
American Savings Bank, and occupied
the same building with that institution,
at the corner of Seventh and + streets,
n. W., suspended this morning.
The German American Savings Bank
has also closed its doors and put up the
following notice: "Owing TO the sus-
pension of the,German American Ma
tional Bank, this bank is forced to
close,n
The officials of the savings bank, how
ever, declare that the institution is
sound. Both of these banks were owned
and patronized principally by Germans,
and the suspension caused much sur
prise, as they were regarded as sound.
An excited crowd surrounds the build
ing.
Comptroller Knox this morning de-
tailed National Bank Examiner b. U.
Keyser to examine the affairs of the
bank, and he is now in possession of the
establishment. After hasty eXamina-
ton he stated it was probable the de-
positors will be paid in full.

A Twelve Year Old Boy Hanging Himself.

On Saturday afternoon the body of
Eddie Bery, about II years of age, was
found hanging by the neck in his fa-
ther's barn at Wennersville, Lehigh
county. When discovered the body was
still warm, but life was extinct. 1t
seems that on that day his father and
mother went to visit some neighbors,
leaving their two sons, Marcus, aged 10,
and Eddie, at home. A neighbor visited
the place soon afterward, and found the
boys at work. He then went away, but
returning short time afterward he
missed Eddie and inquiring where he
was. After search by himself and
Marcus they found the little fellow hang
ing by the neck in the granary, he
having fastened the rope to the pulleys
used for hosting grain to the floors above.
His feet were resting on the floor when
found. On Tuesday evening, Oct. /,
Mrs. Biery was preparing some milk
pudding for the family's supper, and
during her temporary absence from the
stove some one put arsenic into the pud-
ding, and the family had narrow es-
cape from being poisoned. Who placed
the poison there is still unknown, but
the suicide of the lad may prove Sc
quer to the attempted poisoning.
