ONE has to 60 away from home to get
the news. The New Orleans Times tells OF
an old Greenbacker from Maine who was in
Cambridge. Mass, when he heard the result
of the election, and was SO overcome by the
news of Smiths defeat that he had to get
drunk. He staggered along until he reached
a provision store, and asked the proprietor
thickly: ''S'price thess tematers?' As he
said this he reached over and took a large
red pepper pod, bit it in two, and COM
menced eating it with rapid haste. The
proprietor stood quaking and waiting for the
old man to drop down dead; but he didn't
do anything of the kind. HE ate the whole
of that pepper, smacked his mouth and
pleasantly said: "Fust termater I've ct this
(hic) year t'hed any flavor worth-worth er

The Suspicious Music of the We'd
ding.


Mr.. Blair, secretary of the Union insurance
company, was married last night at st. Paul's
Episcopal church to Miss Nellie Barringer,
charming young lady, one of the bellies OF Cincin-
natl society. The Rev DR.. Benedict officiated.
The wedding was quiet, but enlivened some
what by q little incident that rather upset
the solemnity usually observed when two
young people are joined for life. Professor
Perring of the college of music presided at the
organ and, as is customary on such OCCASIONS
entertained the assembled guests with volun-
taries on the instrument previous to the arri-
val of the happy couple. He finally struck IN
to that familiar melody with the very familiar
refrain: "Trust Her Not, She Is Fooling Thee"
with elaborate extemporaneous variations.
While he was hard at it the bridal party en-
tered the church, but the professor, totally OBJ
livious of the fact kept ON banging away, and
as the expectant groom walked up the aisle
with happy smile on his face and his lovely
bride on his arm, he was astonished to hear
himself greeted with:
"Trust her not she's foo-ooling thee-She's foo-oo-
ling thee
The professor never realized the situation
tumbled to it, so to speak-until the bridal
party was we'll ON its way to the altar, when
he Jumped Into the wedding march with an
emphatic suddenness that nearly took the wlnd
out of the man at the bellows The next time
Mr.. Blair gets married he'll employ another
rganist.-Cncnnati Times.

No More Democratic Presidents
Forever.

Southern Democratic leaders are beginning
to realize the fruits of their Jolly IN Weluihg
''Solid South" for the Democratic party. For
four wears the crack of the Mississippi shotgun
in defence of Democratic principles, has been
heard without protest. No protest to this bar
barous mode of enforcing apolitical dogma has
ever been breathed by any prominent Missis-
sippi Democrat. No compunctions OF consci-
ence ever visited the Lamars, the Singletons,
the Hookers and Barksdales, until they discov:
cred that South made solid by violence and
fraud, had made solid North for the Republi-
can party A solid North bids the Southern
Democratic leaders pause. But it is too late.
The solid North has been made, and james
Buchanan will still remain the last Democrat
ic President for all time.-Memphis Ava
lanche Qnd. Dem.)
The above wall was uttered by Demo
cratic editor, with death staring him in the
face. There is some good to be got from
yellow fever. 1t made one Democratic eu-
tell the truth.

THE New York Sun is greatly pleased
tional amendments, and says, "Joe Hawley
never hit the nail more squarely on the
head than when he told the Connecticut vot-
ers that the success of popular institutions
was conditioned upon the willingness of the
people to discharge their political du'ies,
even at the sacrifice of convenience or incii-
nation, and that all this latter-day grumb-
ling about the frequency of elections was
un-Democratic and un-American. Do the
men who complain so loudly of the fuss and
bother of going to the polls every year to
vote for members of the Legislature realize
that they are advertising their unworthiness
to enjoy tho advantages of solf-Sovernment?''

THE so-called spelling reform" is really
making progress. The New York Indepen-
dent, Chicago Tribune and Utica Herald
have adopted the new spelling as set forth
in the following list prepared for the guild
apce of the Tribune compositors: Omit uein
demagog, catalog, pedagog, synagog, dealog,
and other words ending in "logue" and
''gogue." Omit the superiuous me in pro-
gram, gram Omit the second M in dilem-
ma (dilema) Omit the superfluous te in
cigaret, etiquet, parquet, coquet, and
all similar words except Gazette when it
is used as the name of newspaper Spell
"defnit' in all its forms without the final e
thus: definit-ly-ness-ind indefnit-ly-ncss
Spell "infinit'' without the final e.; also in
fnit-ly-ness. Omit final in hypocrlt,
favorit. In words ending in "lessn ess'
drop one from s'less"; viz: carelesness,
thanklesness, etc. Omit the fourth in as
sassin (assasin), and other forms OF the
word. Spell somerset, not somersault.
Spell canon with Spanish n, or spell it
canyon. Change ph to f in fantom, fan

Even the Boston Transcript gives Senator
Chandler welcome, and says: Hon. Zach.
Chandler's arrival to participate in the Re-
publican canvass will do all that can be
done to infuse into the State campaign some
of the old fervor and JUNCTION of the days
when the Republican party had all its great
fight yet to make, and the ardent, moral
purpose of Massachusetts and New England
led them to flock to its standard almost as
one man. Massachusetts will never fail to
sympathize with the heroes of that strug-
gle, in which she was SO largely a part, while
the patriotic sentiment of the days that tried
mems souls still animates them above all
sordid politics. Mr.. Chandler's steadfast-
ness and simplicity of aim are rebuke to
that class of Republican politicians who
have made traffic of the enthusiasm he hon
estly feels, and who only work in Republi-
can guise to serve the arch-enemy to present
Republican purposes and principles in this
State.

A Washington special to the Tribune says;
Maj. Carson, who has just returned from
the West, says that while he is not an eX-
pert in Indian matters, the origin of the war
presents no mystery to him. He says the
excitement in all parts of Colorado over the
mineral development is almost inconceiva-
BILE. Every one has the mining fever, and
stories of suddenly acquired wealth are on
every tongue, The daily arrivals at Denver
number from 500 to 1000 individuals. Peo-
pie scarcely stop to talk of profits amounting
to anything less than millions, and more sig
nificant than all else is the fact mysterious
rumors are circulating of mines in the Ute
country richer than have yet been found in
the Leadville region. The Indians know as
well as others that all this means expatria-
ton or determination for them unless the
Federal government holds its word as sacred
as when it pledges it to the white man. Maj.
Carson fears that an army of ten times the
strength of that of the Federal government
could not long protect the Indians under
the circumstances.
