A lady in St. Joseph, Mo-, whose hus-
band had deserted her, heard that he
was paying attentions to another woman
and called at the house where she was
staying. He was there. She walked in
nd the first words she spoke were
"John, come, let's go home" He re-
piled very emphatically that he would
not She insisted that he would. He still
said he would not go, as she abused him.
She put her hand under her shawl, drew
forth bright, new revolver, and raising
the implement of death to an angle of
about forty-fve degrees, asked him once
more if he'd 90 home with her. He
looked her square in the eye, which WAS
firm and calm, and replied: "Oh, yes, if
that's all YOU want, Pll gladly acconmo-
da'e- you." She stepped aside and told
him to 60 out, which he did. He did
not speak word during the march, and

ture as that little woman did give that

THE Bystander.l


An exodus to the United States is 20.
ing on from all of the provinces. As
many as three hundred went from ST..
John in one week, and four hundred
from Montreal. An inquiry made by
the London Advertiser shows that num-
bers are leaving Ontario, and most of
them for the States. From Quebec we
hear that merchants still complain Of
the lack of business; that masses of
money are lying idle in the banks for
want Of investments; that the poorer
classes are on the verge of destitution; +;
that families have subsisted through the
winter on potatoes; that three thousand
French Canadians have been in recent
of organized relief; that every one seems
compelled to retrench; that the value of
real property has frightfully shrunk; and
that the number.of houses and stores to
let is alarming.

ALASKA ARGUMENTS.
What 10 Advanced in Favor of q Permanent


What 10 Advanced in Favor Of q Permanent
Government There.
A letter dated March has just been re-
ceived from wellinformed gentleman
in Sitka, Alaska. in which he advances
a number of arguments in favor of estab-
fishing a permanent government in Alaska
and in it he says 1.-THE opponents of leg
islation for Alaska have lately relied upon
a report of Captain G. w. Bailey of the rev.
enue service, who made cruise through
the waters of the territory last sum-
mer, to show that there is no population
there entitled to demand q civil govern
ment. Captain Bailey took census of the
settlements at which he touched, and he
puts the entire population of the coast,
without including that of the interior,
at 1907, which include only 219 Ameri-
cans. The Creoles are put at l, 416, and
the Aleuts at 3, $40. 1t must be remembered
that these two classes, numbering 1886 by
this showing, are the Russian-born sub
jects who were guaranteed protective
government by the treaty and are most of
them nearly white. But the report shows
that Captain Bailey made his last touch at
southeastern port in Alaska on the Goth
of May, 1879, and that he did not touch
at several ports of Importance in that part
of the the territory, notably at those of
Klawak, where there is salmon and clam
cannery and number of whites
Chilean, where there are several
white families, supported by a
considerable lumber trade, and Port
Hunter, cannery and trading settlement.
Besides this, there has grown up large
settlement of miners at Silver Bay and
town is springing up there, and there has
been, further, considerable addition to
the population of Sitka and Wrangel since
Captain Bailey touched at those ports. It
is very fair estimate to put the present
American white population of Alaska,
which will become permanent, at 1,5OO."

Easter-Monday ut tho White House.

A1ootOHeuAOhu"y - sA0 "hlt0 nOuDOs
The children took absolute possession of
the grounds south of the White House on
Monday. Children were there of all ages
and sizes, regardless of sex, color, or pre-
vious condition. There was a young lady
here and there to look after a party of
youngsters intrusted to her care, and
three policemen walked around to see that
no damage was done to the shrubbery, and
to stop the fights which now and then oc-
CURED among the boys. Nearly every
child had basket of Easter eggs, colored
by brilliant dyes. They rolled themselves
and the eggs down the sharp declivities
that mark the contour of the grounds they
laughed, yelled and played. In rolling
down with their eggs, the girls-some Of
them of pretty good size, toO-were totally
regardless of the extent of striped stock
ings displayed. The pump near the White
House was a never-failing source ofamuse-
ment and dampness. There must have
been at least between 500 and 600 chill
dren celebrating Easter Monday on the
grounds. About 10 o'clock ragged and
dirty boy Of fourteen mixed himself
with . crowd of small ones who were
having a good time with their eggs and
rolling them around without any thought
as to their safety. The boy eyed them en-
viously. Suddenly he darted out and

A AGisrepressntati.n Corr,ct.,I.

According to the order of w. w, Hen
sci, chairman Of the Democratic Lancaster
county committee, press representatives
were excluded from being present at the
meeting Of the committee in Lancaster eitv
yesterday.
Is Mr.. Hensel afraid to let the Democrats
of Lancaster county know what was said

Time out of mind it has been the custom
OF the Democratic county committee to
hold its sessions in private, never failing
nor refusing to admit recognized members
OF the party, whose counsel and presence
1t IS always glad to have. Its discussions
are free and informal and generally consist
OF matters affecting only the position of
the party toward its opponents, and in
order to give its members the necessary
freedom of restraint, they do not desire on

misrepresent it. ''What is said" is 4 mi.

is always made public to the Demoo-
racy of the county through the In
TELLIaENCER, and the chairman of the
county committee has never failed to give
his contemporaries all the information ON
this subject which he himself used, or
which was legitimate for publication For
tunately neither he nor the committee
ever engage in dirty work. and hence
have 10 reason to be "afraid of the peo-
ple;' but their own private affairs they

PERSONAL.

Colonel ROBERT INGERsOLL, OF Illinois,
seems to have an exact appreciation of the
effect his peculiar views upon religion have
had upon his political aspirations. Not
long since gentleman who saw upon his
table copy of Voltaire, inquired, "How
much did this book cost you ?' The COL
onel answered, "The governorship of H.
linois."
General GRANT was handsomely receiv-
ed and entertained in Houston, Texas, on
Monday, and left there yesterday for New
Orleans. A reward of $500 has been offered
for the arrest of some scamps who spiked
the guns used for firing salute on the
generals arrival, turned off the gas from
the street, and otherwise attempted to in
terrupt the festivities in Houston.

and he feels no concern as the general re-
suit, and the great point now with hihl is
to secure united action, and carry as many
legislative districts as possible in the fall
election" All of which shows a level
head on his part. AS we have suggested
to Congressman Morgan r. Wise and
other congressman, Senator Wallace con-
cedes that the Pennsylvania Democrats
are quite able to manage their own affairs
in their several districts. It is manifestly
to bis interest to promote and encourage
harmony and avoid dictation and interfer-
ence everywhere. The only possible hope
of re-electing Democratic United States
senator in Pennsylvania next year is to
keep all the close legislative districts solid
for the Democracy. Lancaster is one of
them.

SENATOR CARPENTER INDUCED in an
apparently just criticism of the action OF
Democratic senators in favoring the pas
sage of bill incorporating the proposed
International exhibition company at New
York. He denied that there was any
authority in the constitution for such
legislation and thought that Democratic
senators, who profess to be strict con-
structionists of the constitution, should
be the last to exercise doubtful power. 1t
was fair hit; Senator Wallace could
allege nothing in behalf of the authority
of Congress, but that it came under the
grant to it of power to regulate COM
merce, and that moreover the power had
already been exercised in chartering
the Centennial international exhibition
company; but if a wrong has once been
done it does not justify its repetition,
and if the power of Congress to regulate
commerce can be construed to give it
authority to grant acts of incorporation
to carry on business in the states, it will
permit it to do anything that may be
construed to remotely affect the coun-
try's commerce, and that is pretty much
everything.
If the power exists it is certainly only
by implication and no strict construc'
zionist can approve its exercise. The
Democratic senators who showed a dis
position to pass this measure are fairly
gibed 10y Senator Carpenter, and we hope
it will do them good. Senator Eaton, who
always stands fast on solid Democratic
ground, was not among those who
needed the lesson and took occasion to
coincide with his Republican critic. Sen
ator Herman, of New Y York, was demoral-
lied by the fact that the proposed cor
poratiOn is New York institution and
other senators seemed to think that no.
body would object and nobody would be
hurt by it. But there is nothing like ad-
herring consistently and firmly to princi-
pie in great things and in small.

was not submitted to nor approved by
the judgment of the great and good Mr..
Hayes. Had that eminently wise and
conservative citizen of the republic been

of dealing with such a case his mind
would at once have referred to a prece-
