Chicago Times Guh.)


A year sgD General Hancock, then 4
candidate for the Presidency OF the Uni
ted States, was represented by his oppo-
nents to be an uncommOnly hSri Clti.
zsE. lie was vain and reasonable, lat
and villainouS, wore corSetS and s@Orc
oaths, and plotted the resurrection OF
the Confederate States. Moreover, he
was so feeble of health that he wasn't
going to live more than month or two.
But now General Hancock ia regarded
by these same whiloR opponents as
quite a gentleman. Advices from
Yorktown to a leading Republican
journal say: General Hancock issued
yesterday his first general orders as a
COMMANDMENT Chief of the regulation
military forces, in camp and 10 arrive.
His office is delicate one, considering
the Loneliness and self importance sure
to be exhibited in some quarters Bat
TALON drills are held by the regular
troops and the naval forces are arrang-
ing for their part in the coming display.
The selection Of General Hancock as
COMMANDMENT Chief is curious for
more reasons than one. 1t is only
twelve miles from here that he first
distinguished himself in ba' le in
1862. He is greatly beloved by the
army and volunteers for his services in
the late war, and as Democratic candi-
date for the Presidency he became more
or less identified with the ruling party
in the South. Should the disorlerly
element show itself at Yorktown or the
camp, it is probable that no one could
put things to rights with a better
chance for the sympathy of all persons
here" During the past year the Gen
eral has done nothing whatever to re-
store confidence in his patriotism and
his character generally. He simply con-
tinues to be what he Was before ri6ald
organs maliciously attacked him.

THE Republicans OF the United States
Senate are in an unfortunate position
regarding the Secretaryhip OF that body.
Very few il fanny of them care 10 support
GEORGE c. GoRHAM for that position;
some have even gone so far SIS to an.
nounce that they will not again vote for
him, and yet it seems as if they will be
compelled to. MALONE is the boss on
that side OF the Senate nov, and Ma
HONS insists not only that GoRHAN shall
again be put up for Clerk, but that RID
DLrBERGER shall ;.aye another chance
for the position OF Seryeant-at-Arms.
Some recent events in Virginia have
made RIDDLtBsRGER as obnoxi1us as
GoRHAN, and the vote for either of them
will be secured only under great press.

who have been Gickering with MALONE
may find that they nave made bad

THE KANSAS MAN.

One sweltering day In hot July
A beer saloon ne wandered BY.
And seeing that he was not seen,
He entered at the swinging screen.
And TO rebuke the drinking men
Whom he observed around him then,
He ordered, as he knew he'd ought ter,
A glass of pure, clear, crystal water.
He set 1t down ''Ah. ha," said he.
"Cold water is the drink for me-"
And so to make 1t cold and nice,
He pounded In little Ice.
Healthful and good, sliced very thin,
He dropped little lemon in.
And then he said, 'sweets to the sweet
And stirred some sugar In the treat.
To kind of brace the mixture up,
He dashed some bitters in the cup.
Then just a lee. tie whisky-well,
Say twenty lines of nonp rel.
And while he stirred 1t with spoon
de sang, in gleefultones. this tune:
water, cold water, pure and free.
Water Is the drink for me.''
He raised his head. loud loud he laughed
And to the dregs the goblet quaffed.
This is the new amendment plau,"
Remarked the temperate Kansas man.
Then set his course, and held that day,
Due west, his calm, imperial way.

he fixed the date at she 25th of

at the ghost that no one ventures
out after nightfall alone. On one
occasion q well known young man
met the woman in black. who
gave him a square Old-fashioned

has introduced a bill TO repeal the
law now authorizing the appoint
ment of sixteen trustees at Berkeley
Springs, legislating them out of
office, and authorizing the incoming
Governor TO make the appointment
of seven. The attention of your
Senators and Delegates was called
to it, but they were all in bliSstuL
ignorance of what was meant.
A hard figgt seems to be pending
over the reapportionment OF the
Senatorial and Delegate Districts.
AT one time everything seemed to
be moving along smoothly. Messrs.
Maxwell, Faulkner and Dennis, of
the Senate, and Hubbard, Ferguson
and Grantham of the House, were
at work upon the basis Of thirty
Senators and seventy-seven Dele
gates, but for some inexplicable
reason they have come to a halt.
This would be upon the basis of
about Al 900 to Senator and S,025
to a Delegate.
1t may be five or. six days before
the Circuit Court bill will become a
law; it is being pressed in the Sen
ate.
Senator Faulkner's bill authoriz-
ing judges to enter Judgment over
decree in valuation, passed the Sen
ate on Tuesday.
Look out for big fight when Stol-
lings 20 cent tax bill comes up. Your
district, we understand, would pay
into the school fund some nine thous-
and dollars more than it would get
back.
The subcommittee on reappor-
tionment OF Senatorial and Delegate
districts, are Messrs. Maxwell,
Faulkner and Dennis, of the Senate,
and Messrs. Hubbard, Grantham and
Ferguson, of the House.
The resolution looking to a reap
portionment of the Congressional
dirtricts, has been laid on the table
in the Senate for the present.
Senator Faulkner reported from
the Judiciary Committee the follow
ing joint resolution, proposing an
amendment to the Constitution of
the State:
Resolred, That the following
amendment to article of the Con-
stitution of the State be and the
same is hereby proposed, to-wit: That
section 46 of article of the Consti-
tuition as it now is, be stricken out
and the following inserted in lieu
thereof 1.-The manufacture ana sale
of intoxicating liquors shall be for
ever prohibited in this State, except
for medicinal, scientific and mechan-
ical purposes; and the legislature
shall enforce the same by appropri-
ate legislation.
We presume there will be some
noise in that body before vote is
taken upon the resolution, although
numerous petitions containing over
sixteen thousand names have been
presented to the legislature urging it.
The militia bill has been reported
back from the committee, with a
recommendation that it pass.
lii the Senate on Wednesday very
little of special Importance was
transacted.
In the House Messrs. Speaker
Wilson, Morrow and Moffett had
quite lively little tilt on Wilson's
railroad bill. 1t was finally decided
TO take the bill up on Monday.
Mr., Ferguson offered the follow
ing:
heSOlUed, That the Speaker of the
House issue a writ Of election as
provided by law to fill the vacancy
in Berkeley county, caused by the
death of Hon. George Terrell.
A number of other unimportant
bills and resolutions were offered.
