RIDICULOUS CONTEST.

The present age is particularly
rich in champions. We not only
have champion prize fighters, cham '
pion wrestlers and champion rifle
shooters, but recently champions of
the peaceful art of walking have
arisen in their might of action and
of endurance and have taken society
by storm. Now there arises a now
breed of champions, more obnoxious
than the last. One fellow, who
must be cousin to on ostrich, offers
to eat hnrd-boiled eggs in competi-
ton with any other man in the
world. He will eat one hundred of
these indigestible things in one
hundred hours, or, if not dead by
that time, will keep on until in five
hundred hours he shall have finished
five hundred eggs.
But he whose ambition is most
lately chronicled is the man who
aspires to be the champion pie
eater. This glutton advertises that
he will eat pies against any man in
America. He proposes to eat apple
pies, thirty-six inches in diameter,
and to swallow more of these than
can be swallowed by any other glut-
ton. Hardly is the ink dry on the an
nouncement of this pie-e eater before
another offers to eat pies which are
seventy two inches in diameter md
of proportionate thickness. 1t is
we'll. There is hope for these
champions hope that they will
presently stuff themselves to death
with pie, and thus blot their names
from the earth. Oae Improvement
can be suggested. Bring them
from the boarding houses und the
railroad restaurants, and let the
eaters eat their fill. A few writh-
ings, a few gentle Nightmares, and
all will be over.

GREENR1CK ACTIVITY.
Democratic Recognition in New York
How the Situation is Complicated
by Mr.. Hendricks.

Democratic Recognition in New York
by Mr.. Hendricks.
The greenbackers are moro active~
ly ut work for the ensuing political
campaign than most people believe.
Not only has compact organization
been perfected of the distinct greens
back representatives in the Forty
sixth Congress, but plan has been
arranged for a demonstration in
New York State which will compel
Democratic recognition of the
greenback issue in tho fall election
there for State officers. This plan,
as far as rgreed upon, is to hold o
q State Convention at Albany or
Syracuse early in the summer, or at
least not later than the first of
August, and to nominate Sunset Cox
for Governor, that gentleman having
within the CAST few years changed
his position on tho money question
and being now pronounced green
backer. The expectation is that
with Mr. Cox already III the field the
regular Democrats will, at their
State Convention, be forced to On
dorse him or run the risk of defeat
for both wings of the party should
they put somebody else on the reg~
ular ticket for Governor.
TO make the complication still
moro perplexing, it is asserted
by intimate personal friends of Mr..
Hendricks that he will not consent
n second time to take the secondtrlace
on the Presidential ticket. These
friends say that this decision on the
part of Mr.. Hendricks was, reached
by him ut the conclusion of the
ba in. IS o. the ST. Louis Convention
but was only recently declared by
him in view of the movement to re-
nominate in 1880 the ticket Of 1876.
The sentiments Of Mr.. Hendricks
on the financial question are in
harmony with those Of the majority
Of the Western and Southern De-
mocracy, and it is claimed that, if
there is to be any vindication next
year of the result of the last Presi-
dental election, it can be more
surely attained with Mr.. Hendricks
at the head of the ticket.
