GEN. ECHOLs' POSITION.

Gen. Echols has very frankly stated his
position with regard to the candidacy of
Gen. Wickham for the U. S. Senate last
winter before the legislature. The i'm
pudence of the Readjuster leaders having
made him an object of attack may be
shown by statement of the relative posi-
lions occupied by the leading electors on
the Democratic ticket, and the Indepen-
dent ticket.
On the Democratic ticket is John Echols.
who was willing to vote for a Republican
for the u. S. Senate in order to hold the
State under the control Of the Democratic
party. a. ~
On the Independent ticket is H. Fl.
Riddleberger, who was willing to vote and
did vote for a gentleman for the q. s..
Senate, ,ohose friends refused to sag, schen
interrOgated on the floor, auhether he eooatld
cooperate aoith the Republicans or Demo-
Gratis in the Senate If elected. And Mr..
Riddieberger's vote was cast to hold the
State under the control of the ReadjuSter
party, q party achsch acknowledges no a.
legiaace to the Democratic party of the Uas-
ted States, and is running in opposition
to the Democratic organization In the
State.
On the Democratic ticket is John Echols,
who was willing to vote for one Republi-
can, to save his State for the Democracy
On the Independent is II. Fl. RiddlebeS-
ger, who voted for .fue Republicans-a
Republican Auditor of the State over a
Democrat, four Republican judges over
Democrats, and for other Republican Of
ficiaIs over Democrats, in order to take the
State from the Democratic party.
This is the record, and it is matter of
public record. One elector was willing to
make a sacrifice to strengthen the Demo-
cratic party of the State, and the other
made sacrifice" in order to destroy it..
Funderism and Readjusterism are we'll
enough in their way, but when you come
to talking about any Democracy in the In
dependent electoral ticket, be careful not
to quote this record as sample of loyalty
to the Democracy.
We never agreed with Gen. Echols'
views on the political strategy proposed,
bat the idea of any of the Independent
leaders taking ground against his Demo-
cracy is absurd to the last degree.

Old HOrSeshOeS.

81 saw funny sight in the street
just now" said Mr.. Patterson to his
friend Mr.. Johnson, in the Fifth Ave-
nue. hotel barber shop, last Monday at
,ernoon. " met an elegantly dressed
lady carrying in her hands an old
horse shoe covered with mud. I sup
pose she had just found it, and was
carrying it home for good luck"
Good luck p replied Mr.. johnson;
"don't talk to me about old horse
shoes and good luck. About month
ago my wife and 1 were returning from
church, one Sunday, when, just iu
front of the new Roman Catholic cathe-
dral in Fifteenth street, horse which
was being driven at lively gait threw
shce, and it went ringing along the
pavement. Go get that shoe, said my
wife, 'and we will keep it for good
luck l picked it up, utterly running
one of my gloves in doing so, as it was
covered with mud. This l was going
to wipe off on the curb, but my wife
cried out: 'Oh, don't do that, for If
you do, you will wipe off all the good
luck So l lugged the old thing all
the way home, and over the door We
hung it, mud and all. The next morn
ing | went down to the store wondering
what my first streak of good luck
would be. Before night l had mis-
understanding with my employer
with whom I have been for several
years-we both got hot, and the result
vas that he gave me notice that after
the first of January he would dispense
with my services. A few days after
ward my wife went to do some shop
ping, and lost her pocket book, con-
tanning all the money We had been saw.
ing for a long time to spend for holiday
presents and amusements. In fact, for
about two weeks everything went
against me, and was in hot water all
tho time. Finally, 1 said to my wife
one day that believed it was that con.
founded old horseshoe that was to
blame for it all; and that l was bound
to take it down and put it back in the
street just where l found 1t, so did.
The very next morning my employer
sent for me to come and see him in his
private office. He said he had been
mistaken in the matter about which we
had differed, apologized for what he
had said, hoped there would be no
more hard feelings about it, and wound
up by engaging nae for another year at
an increased salary. I went homo that
night feeling better natured than had
for weeks. l told my wife of my good
luck, and then she took from her
pocket letter which she had that day
received from her father, notifying her
that he was going to send her q check
for $500 for Christmas present. In
fact, 1 have had only good lack since 1
threw away that old horseshoe. They
may bring luck to some folks, but my
wife and l don't want any more horse
shoes in ours, you bet. IN. Y. Star.

A Minister Kissing the Cook.

Another New Jersey minister is in
trouble, and this time it is the pastor Of
one of the largest and wealthiest con-
gregations in Hoboken. The Rev. Gus
tav Hafermann was appointed to the
pastorate of the German Lutheran
Church in that placefour years ago at
a salary of $4,000 a year. The church
stands on Hudson and Eighth streets,
and adjoining is the parsonage. a hand
some red brick and brown stone house.
A few months ago young woman
named Ida Stigmann, a good looking
brunette, aged eighteen, who was then
living with her parents in Cottage Row,
Hoboken, was engaged as cook in the
family. The Rev. Mr.. Hafermana, it
is said, seemed much pleased with the
new servant. A few weeks ago, how
ever, the cook told her mother that the
pastor often kissed her. She told her
that if anything of the kind happened
again to go to the pastors wife and tell
her of it. The cook did as directed.
and the next day she says the pastor
kissed her again. So she ran into Mrs.
Hafermann's sitting-room and told her
what had taken place. The pastors
wife was furious, and, going into her
husbands study, was heard to express
her mind freely. The cook then went
home to her parents, with whom she
remained until few days ago, when
she left the town.
The matter coming to the ears of the
church trustees, they called meet
ing, which was held in the basement
of the church on Monday night. No
outsiders were admitted. Mr.. Hafer-
mann had been cited to appear, but he
only sent long letter acknowledging
that he had kissed the cook upon several
occasions. He declared that he did it
out of pure Christian motives. He re-
garded her as daughter.
The trustees decided that as the pas
tor had two daughters already, and as
the cook had father living also, the
excuse was hardly sufficient. They APP
pointed committee of three to ask the
pastor to resign. Mr.. Hafermann re.
ceived the committee at his house, and
said that if the congregation wished
him to 60 away he would do so.
Shortly after these disclosures were
made the father of the young woman
went to the pastors house and de.
manded an explanation. He received
one similar to that furnished to the
trustees, and he was not at all satisfied
with it. G. Muller, a wealthy sugar
refiner of this city, who is chairman of
the Board Of Trustees, was one of the
committee who waited upon the pastor,
and requested him to resign. The
secretary of the Board said next even
ing that the trustees were satisfied with
the explanation the pastor had made,
but they believed him to be very eccen-
trio, and thought it would be best for
him to 60 away.-Neao York Tribune,

True Stories About Animals.

There was trouble in the menagerie
last Saturday. 1t seems that the large
black monkey had got out some way or
! other, and climbed up in front of the
big tank in the aquarium and called
the seal "a blarsted furriner, and when
the seal retorted by calling him O "Sen-
egambian nut cracker" the monkey
reached in over the glass and pulled a
bald spot i'll her seal skin sacque, and
then there was row.
Put up your fippers and lead at
him." shouted the leopard, encour-
agingly to the seal.
Here, you mustn't bite, scratch nor
pull hair, said the bear to the monkey.
Fight fair"
And when that rule was applauded
and approved 10y the crowd, the mon
key quit fighting and sat down and
cried, and said that Just barred him
clear out.
Clear in, you mean," interrupted
the zebra; land besides you're not
barred out half so much as am"
And everybody was down on him,
anyhow" the monkey sobbed on, "and
"There's more down on me than
there is on you" said the swan, "and L
don't SWIVEL about it, you Italian relu-
geo."
I" 1 can lick the biggest seal in this
menagerie," walled the friendless mon
Key, to which the seal scorniully replied
that he couldn't lick a postage stamp,
and at this taunt the monkey broke out
afresh, and the menagerle reviled and
encouraged him by turns.
why don't you bristle up?' the
wild boar asked him.
YES" shouted the giraffe. "hold
your head up"
And throw out your chest and have
some style about you," yelled the pea
cock.
And hump yourself and have little
backbone" said the camel.
"And stand up for your rights" said
the kangaroo.
"And what will he do for his lefts,

tent, and everybody could see that he
was in a bad humor. lie turned on the
weeping monkey. Get into your cage
this minute, you son of cocoanut, or
I'll hit you such swipe with this Sar-
atoga that you'll think :. whole baggage
car has run over YOU"
The animals were all perfectly quiet,
wondering what had happened ana what
was coming next. The elephant glared
around at the cages and then shook his
head savagely.
Id give bale of hay" he said after
while, If knew which one of you
living curiosities and geological won
ders sent me that bottle of anti fat"
And then, children, one wild whoop
of laughter went up from all the cages
which eliminated in shrieks of delight
when the enraged elephant sucked all
the water out of the seals tank and
spirited it all over the monkeys. 1t was
the worst rain they ever had in the
menagerie, and it was a lucky thing
somebody didn't get killed. As it was,
the little brown monkey with the gray
face had spasms all night. and all three
of the owls had to sit up with him, and
they were SO sleepy the next day they
didn't have to show.
