Sunday, June 27tb, was discovered
In the privy vault ofhis fathers res
idcncc, No. G3, Claiborne street.
Az soon as this information was
obtained u representative Of tho I'lMEt
visited The house, discovering before
lit IN immense crowd of woh,rn md
girls congrcgated on the banQllotle iD
11'ifionGor tic house, and three policemen,
ut tho door, who denied admission to
all excepting friends Of tho family.
Tho three rooms, however, were
crowded with women. Passed through,
q side gate, tho writer passed through
q narrow alley into u small back yard
where, completely enveloped In II
sheet sprinkled with carbolic acid,
lay tho diminutive'body Of tho lnplcss
little victim.
| When discovered he was lying upon
his faco ut the end Of u plank about
six feet long, to where he llad evidently
strangglcd. Tho privy Is elevated,
being approached by u flight Of three
steps and I'as u high seat with one
large gcopening. Had tho child mounted
the scat 10 could readily have fallen

IN which he experienced his sud fate.
1t will bo remembered tllat when
tho writer interviewed Mrs. Cain u
few days after johnny disappeared,
slo stated That tho child came in
about noon while she was bathing
ono Of tho other children md attempted
to play in the water. She asked him
to stop, giving him picture. lie

JUDGE JOHN ID. HOGE FOR
CONlsR ESS.

The Wheeling Register says the
choice of the Congressional Convention
of tic Second district, held at Fairmont
on Monday, is one which cannot fail to
commend itself to the great body OF lts
citizens. Judge Hoge is not politician
in any sense of the word; he has made
no canvass of his district for the purpose
of securing influence or votes; he has
spent no money in a questionable man
ner, and yet no man went into the con-
ven,ion with SD many friends, or as
faithful ones. His high intellectual
qualities, genial manners, and warm
heartedness have secured for him many
devoted friends, and they are assured
that in his election the interests OF the
district will he abundantly taken care
of, and the State secure representative
of which it can justly be proud. There
were four competitors lortheprize, nine
" one votes being the number requisite
IN secure a nomination. Hon. b. +.
Martin led OH the first ballot, scoring
6l votes, against 4s for Judge Hege,
as for Hon. ID. Is. Lucas, and 20 for
Captain Bradford. This ratio was main
tanned until the fourth ballot, when the
friends of the latter Withdrew that gen
,lemans maine, and the bulk OF his
strength going to Messrs. Hoge and Lu-
cas-. At the conclusion of the seventh
ballot, which stood: Martin, "A; Hoge,
81, and Lucas 4S, recess was taken
until 9 +. VI. On reassembling, and be-
fore the eighth ballot was taken, Mr.
Lucas withdrew his name, and after
much excitement and changingo OF votes,
the result was announced as GO for
Judge Hoge and 81 for Hon, b. +.
Martin. Mr.. Martin immediately came
forward and pledged his hearty support
TO the nominee, and the Convention ad-
iourned amid great enthusiasm.

COMMUNICATES.

To The Editor Of The Spirit ofJeGerson:
Mn. EDIroR.-Ihave repeatedly heard
the name of Mr.. William B. Daniels, OF
Shepherd district, suggested as a sulta-
bic person for the House of Delegates
of West Virginia. Probably no more
suitable person could be found in the
county Of Jefferson. His excellent IN
Outstanding, sound judgment, the ex-
tent aud variety of bis useful knowl-
edge. united with his unimpeachable in
tegrity and high principle, emineutly
qualify him for such position. Jeffer-
son would do herself credit by sending
him to the Legislative halls OF West
Virginia. We therefore respectfully,
but firmly, urge his name upon the coli
sideratiou of the Democratic nomina-
ting convention. 1t is the almost unan-
imons voice of Shepherd district, and
as that district has seldom or never
urged the names of any of her citizens
tor any county position, she is there
fore the more justly entitled to re-
spectful consideration of the name she
now presents.

afternoon. Rev. DR.. Brooke, Rev. j.

than sufficient TO lift the debt incurred
