TIE death Of Rev. Howard Malcolm, a
prominent man in the Baptist denomina-
lion, Is announced as occurring at his resi-
tlence In Philadelphia very recently: Pre-
vious to Tie war, he was located at Wheel
ing, and was somewhat noted for his
hostility to slavery, and he had also
many friends about Pittsburgh.-lH el'buFg
Herald.
Many people in Wheeling kindly re-
member Mr.. Malcolm. lie was man Of
gentle life and winning manners. His Of
Tense here in Wheeling was that he took
an interest in the colored people, gotthem
into his Sunday School and taught them
10 read the Bible. For this crime the pro-
slavery element in our midst made 1t so
hot for him that he had to leave.

not afford TO ignore the evil influences that

CiScIxSATl, March 2s.-some little ex.
element was occasloned at a meeting Of
the Catholic priests Of this diocese last
night for the purpose Of periecting plans
for the relief OF Archbishop Purcell, by
the nnouncement that Frank Greer, Chas.
Stewart and Thomas Seaman had been
appointed by the Archbishop committee
to receive all charitable contributions To
pay the diocesan debt. This appointment
was understood 10 mean that the commit
tee appointed by the priests waste be ig'
nored, and caused a bitter discussion, In
which Father Callaghan, OF tile Cathedral,
who was supposed 10 be at the bottom Of
this appointment, was denounced BY the
German priests especially. The meeting
adjourned without taking any united ac'
ton upon the matter in hand.

TnE State institutions of Ohio are devel-
oping scandals under Democratic super.
vision. Three membersof the Ohio House
have been looking into the management OF
I.ongview insane asylum Mt Cincinnati,
and find a shocking state Of affairs. The
rooms OF the patients were found TO be
swarming with loathsome vermin. Worse
than that, unruly female inmates have
been tripped up, gagged and held down
until purple in the face. They have also
been treated to spread.eagle punishment,
which consists in stripping them naked
and whipping them with wet towels,
which leave no mark, but are very painful.
The patients have also been lifted, their
heads held under water until they gave in,
and such treatment accorded them gener'
ally as would be inhuman in dealing with
cattle. There are also stories atloat about
the Xcnia soldiers home, where Superin'
tendent Keller and his son Asa, seem to
have set an example Of kissing and hug
ging the teachers and pupils more than
tlecency and morality would allow.

several points in Ohio indicate the possibility
that Senator Thurman and Secretary She's.
maR may after all consent to be the candi-
dates Of their respective parties for Governor
of Ohio, having in view the presidential sue.
sion. General Rice, who has himself been a
prominent candidate for the democratic rom
ination, is quoted as having stated that the
belief has now become fixed among the dem.
ocrats in Washington that Secretary sherman
will enter the race this fall, and that under
these circumstances it is believed that il will
become n, cessary for the other democratic
candidates to withdraw and call upon Senator
Thurman to fill the breach.
Senator Groome says the americans SEN
satiOnal report Of his recent speech on the
army bill was an nnmitigated and malicious
SANDER, prompted by his opposition TO Mr..
Matthews for the vacant judgeship ir the
United States District Court for Maryland.
The correspondent referred to Senator
Groome as making himself ridiculous, aud
charged hun with acting in avery ungenilemaa.
ly manner toward Senator COnkling in which
there was not a word Of truth.
DEMOCRATIC VETERANS. Hon. Joshua Van
zant, Of Baltimore, and Col. George Gale, Of
Kent county, are probably the only two now
living who sat in the jackson democratic
State convention Of Maryland in 1927, 50
years ago.
Hon Montgomery Blair has written n

majority.
