SENATOR BAYARD HAS THE
PEOPLE WITH HIM.
Chronicle-H crald.

CnronlCle-H crAlu.
1t has been discovered that there is q
real and hive Bayard boom in Pennsylva'
MIA. If by this is meant that there are
thousands of people in this State who
respect the honesty and ability of the
Delaware statesman, the discovery hits
upon bedrock of hard fact. There Is
no Democrat who can command in
Pennsyl lvania more hearty ana numor-
Gus support than Senator Bayard. This
Is becoming more apparent every day.
The small faction which Is for Tilden is
making the noise, but Senator Bayard
has the people with him.

AUGUSTA, Me-, Dec. 29-It Is learned
on good asthority that the Governor b ~
decided not to submit to the Supreme
Court the questions propounded hy Mr..
morrill,.
The discovery of a new phenomenon
in electricity Is announced as the result
of series Of careful and delicate ex-
perimeDts, conducted under the direc-
liou vi Ioi. toWi iahu. III ihc iaupihsoI y
Of the Johns Hopkins University. 1t was
suggested that the experiments be made
Cor the purpose OF ascertaining whether
or not any such phenomenon could BE-
observed and finally ii was discovered by
Mr.. 4. II. Hall, assistant in the 'abora-
| tory, tha', supposing the direction of a
galvanic current is from the negative to
the positive pole, n magnet tends TO de-
fleet the current within the col ductor IN
the same direction in which it tends to
turn the conductor its IT, In referring
TO this discovery the Nation says that
mo discovery equally fundamental has
been made within the last fifty years.
The new force is very fe, BILE and 1t is moi
probable, therefore, that any practical
| application of it eau be made.

The MINSTREL PERFoRMANCE.-The
entertainment given by the Cadet
Ministries last Saturday evening was
largely attended and much enjoyed
by the audience. The sallies of wit
and numerous "hits" made by the
boys, called forth much merriment
and favorable comment. The enter
prise was a success both as an enter
tainment and a financial venture, the
receipts at the door being about $67
The various members of the company
acquitted themselves well. "Buzz"
Pearre and Cam" Sommers were the
principal spokesman, their remarks
being called forth by Hyland or some
other of the young gentlemen. The
exhibition of minstrel troupe be-
ing some thing rare in Morgantown
helped to interest the young folks,
number of whom say they would like
to attend another. The proceeds are
to help pay for Kramer's Band at
Commencement.
