A Sad Story Of Sake.

The sad statement is made that oh n
Godfrey SAKE has succumbed to melan-
cholia, and that he is an affecting exam
pie of mental suffering. As poet
and lecturer Mr.. SAKE has given so
much pleasure to SO many that the fact
Of his intellectual disorder will excite
much sympathy and regret Mr.. SAKE
first appeared as poet in the old
Knickerbochea' Magazme, in 1913.
His first deep mark was made in poem
called Progress" a satire, and since
then he has become we'll known as
humorous poet, sketch writer and lee.
turer Born in Franklin county. VT.
in 1916, Nj. SAKE was admitted to the
bar in lS43. in his 9th year. Not
long alter he removed to Burlington,
w., and became editor and owner Of
the Sentinel, which he managed with
success and popularity He was the
formal and fun-loviug candidate of a
hopeless minoritu for Governor for
eovoral yoara In succession. About III
teen years ago Mr.. SAKE removed to
this State, practicing law in New York
and residing in First place, Brooklyn.
Reverses have overtaken the gentle
man Of late years, aud painful illnesses
have befalen him and members Of his
family. He denies himself to his dear
est friends. His gloom is absolute and
beyond relief. Among lecturers MIR.
SAKE will hold a not high rank. but
there is no doubt he is poet Of dis
trict though not high order of ability.
and that he has done much, of transient
value in itself, to make lighter the
contemplation by readers of their hard
ships, or to enable them to bear or for
get them. Mr.. SAKE as lover of the
good things Of life has not excluded
from his affections the good things of
the table, including its wit and humor,
and he was much in request in former
years as an after-dinner speaker The
tax which good livers pay on their con
stitution has been paid by Mr. SAKE.
but it was hoped that his health would
come hack under system to which he
subjected himself, That hope appears
to be fallacious, and the broken-down
condition of Mr.. SAKE will excite not
a little sympathy.-Albany Argus.

The WOMAN WHOM PEACE WIDOW
Eo.--Among the passengers by the
White Star steamer Britannia, which
arrived at this port from Liverpool yes
terday, was Mr.. Dyson, the widow of
Arthur Dyson, civil engineer. who
was murdered by Charles Peace, alias
John Ward, the notorious burglar, at
Bannercross, near Sheffield, Eng, in
1876. for which crime Peace was hang
ed on the 25th ultimo. Soon after the
murder of her husband Mrs Dyson
came to this conutry ana took up her
abode with some friends in Cleveland,
o. When Peace was arrested, some
months ago, Mrs, Dyson was needed
as witness in the case. and the Eng
lish authorities sent an officer to Cleve-
land for her. In company with this
officer she returned to England, and it
was mainly on her testimony that Peace
was convicted. She left England soon
after the close of the trial She will
proceed to Cleveland to-day. .-Nen

London Times advises the India Gov

lOhibitiOn in iowa.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Journal, writing from DesMoines,
Iowa, under date of March Sd, has
the following to say on the effect of
the Prohibition policy upon the Re-
publican party Of that State:
The most dangerous element to the
Republican patty in Iowa is that Of
Prohibition. 1t presages the certain
defeat Of the party. Every vote cast
for the Prohibition party is one against
the Republican, party. There is no
Disgusting this fact. 1t is now certain
that the Democrats and Greenbackers
will each be in the field. The latter
will draw mainly from the Republi-
can party, and the whole strength of
the Prohibtionists will come from the
Republicans. With this drain from
the ranks of the Republican party, in
favor Of tvo isms, neither of which
can possibly succeed, the result will
be the inevitable defeat of the Repub-
lican party--the only party in which
is found even the semblance O. those
priuci pies for which either of these
two factions are contending-and the
success of the Democrats. With the
Democrats in power in Iowa, there
would be little or no limit to tie sale
of whisky. And yet such men as
Ward B. Sherman, who claim to be
Republicans, are going about the State,
in the wake Of those blue ribbon re-
formers. Drew, Bontecue and Reed,
proseIyting the people to Prohibition
party, evidently for no purpose what
ever but their own seIf-aggrandize-
ment. The motive is too paIpable to
BE- ignored. The only hope is that
the sober second thought of all good
Republicans n Iowa will repudiate
these agitator, and suicidal bigots and
save the party from defeat. The at
tempt was mhe by these men. headed
by Rev. P. P. ingalls,, who is now
self-confessedy orkiug for the Demo
cratic party, 70 capture the blue ribbon
club of this sity, and divert it to
Prohibition political machine, but it
failed, but not until it had nearly made
wreck of it by the seeds of dis
senslon and strife sown in it by these
men of one i1ea.

End of the Vanderbilt Feud.

The Vanderbilt will case has been
brought to an end through a compro-
mise. The consideration is the pay
ment by William Fl. Vanderbilt of
81 ,OCO,O 900 cash to his brother, Cornell
ins, and his sister, Mrs. LeBau, with
costs of the suit, which is withdrawn,
along with all it's charges, and specially
the charges Of undue influence" held
against the widow of the late Commo-
dore. The New York Tribune, of to-
day. contains an authenticated editor
ial statement of the particulars, as
follows: The Vanderbilt will contest
came to an abrupt conclusion to-day
1t is well-known, though not generally
acknowledged, that the termination
has been brought about by compro-
mise, which involves also the pending
suit Of Cornelius Vanderbilt against
w. II. Vanderbilt. Some of the evi
dence which two of the plaintiffs, Mrs.
Lebau aud her brother, were prepared
to submit, in the event of,sfurther con-
tests eff their claims, was told to Judge
Rapallo, and on others advice uego-
tiations and compromise followed.
Cornelius J Vanderbilt is to receive
81 900 900 and his expenses 10 the
suit in the Supreme Court. and Mrs.
Letau, now Mrs. Barser,a like amount
and costs, and the will of the late
Commodore Vanderbilt is to remain
uncoatested. 1t is rumored that all
other heirs have been satisfied, and
that numerous benefciaries by memo
randa, left by the testator with Will
liam II. Vanderbilt, will receive their
full claims.
