BRIEF TELEGRAM MS.

Dayton: The republicans elect every.
thing. A big gain since the presi-
Dental election.
Columbus: By much scratching the
democrats elected mayor and possi-
bly, their entire ticket.
st. Petersburg: A guard is to be
formed as during the Turkish war for
protecting the emperor wherever he
sides.

thropical society has resolved to provide
for the families of those killed or in
jured in the struggle against the nihi-
lists.
Cleveland: Ex-President Hayes is in
the city tonight. He will leave in the
morning for Cincinnati, where he is to
attend reunion of the army of Ten
nessee.
Detroit: Mrs. Upright, young wo-
man, was shot at Stanton, this state,
by her husband on March 10th, and
lived until yesterday. She was shot
through the brain.
st. Lous: A Moberly, Mo-, special
says: Nearly all the coal mines in the
northern and western districts of the
state closed to-day. The miners de-
mand four and a half cents as against
four now. Both are stubborn, and the
result will be disastrous.
San Francisco: John NJ. Ross, under

ager.
Milwaukee President Charles l..
Colby and General Manager f N. Fin
ney, of the Wisconsin Central railroad,
and their families, leave for San Fran
cisco tomorrow morning. They allege
a pleasure trip, but in. railroad circles
it is rumored that the visit has to do
with the Northern Pacific and the
Oregon steamship and navigation COM
pany. Colby and Finney have just
organized new railroad to penetrate
northeastern Wisconsin,, and it will be
in some way connected with the effort
of the Northern Pacific to secure an
eastern outlet via Sault Ste. Marie and
Canada.

A New Trial Granted.

Washington, April A decision
was rendered by the supreme court of
the United States to-day in the mormon
case of John Miles VS.. the United
States, brought here by appeal from the
supreme court of Utah. Miles was
indicted by the third district court at
Salt Lake City. A trial was had and
the jury rendered verdict of guilty.
Miles thereupon appealed to the su-
preme court of the territory, where the
judgment of the district court was
affirmed. He thereupon appealed to
this court, which reversed the decision
of the supreme court of Utah, and
granted new trial. Justice Woods
delivered the opinion.

Chicago, April 4.-The Iribane's
Washington correspondent telegraphs
as follows: Conkling men annouce with
some flourish of trumphets that they in
tend to make an issue with the admin
istration. 1t can be stated, that while
the administration does not seek con-
test, and has not sought one, the coun-
try will probably soon know that Gar
field is president and that Conkling is
not the dictator of this country. The
president is the last man to seek quar-
rel. He is fond of peace; he will go
further to avoid trouble than most men,
but if once aroused, he is good
fighter. Rosco Conkling has never had
such contest as that which he now in
vites with the president. He wisely
recognized both factions with great Of
fees, and he is now threatened with
open aggressive hostility by Conkling.
Those who are able to speak with au-
thority say that Garfield will accept the
gage of battle if it shall be rendered. him,
and that Conkling will find foeman
worthy his steel.
The administration will claim the full
responsibility for the nomination of
Robertson; will not withdraw it, and is
confident that he will be confirmed.
The president does not intend to be ex-
ecutive clerk of any member of his cab
met, as has been charged, neither does
he intend to be the clerk to register the
DEGREES of Conkling.

preference is shown for the latter class

preference is shown for the latter class
of American goods, that the European
merchants are bringing counterfeit ar
tieles of English and German manufac-
ture bearing the American trade
marks. The chief want felt heretofore
is fuel to work iron, but it is about to
be obyiated by the discovery of exten-
siye coal deposits on the San Juan and
Del Rio rivers, on the projected line of
the Mexican Central railroad, not 100
miles from the capital. which promises
to supply abundance of hard coal. The
matter is being brought to the atten-
tion of New York capitalists, and it is
expected that a company will be formed
for this development.

The Big MUDDY on u rear.

Omaha, April 4.-The Missouri river
began rising slowly again Sunday MORN
ing, at this point, and to-day it has
been rising much more rapidly, and
this evening it has overfiowed its banks,
and is fast covering the border lands on
both sides. 1t is now at high water
mark, 18 feet above low water mark,
and is still rising. The smelling works
have been flooded, and compelled to
shut down. One side track, on the
levee, has washed away. Every pre-
caution is being taken to protect the
smelling works, the Union Pacific
shops, lumber yards, etc. There Is
considerable fear that the flood which
is coming from above Sioux City, will
do great damage, and some predict that
the river will cut a new channel close
to Council Bluffs, or close up to the
bluffs on the Omaha side.
A dispatch received here from Sioux
City this afternoon states that every
thing has broke loose there, and that
the river was rushing down with a
rise Of about five feet. The great gorge
between Sioux City and Yankton is said
to have been over fifty miles long,
which has at last given way, and the
vast accumulation of water which had
been blocked up so long is now having
free flow.
The following dispatch received here
from Missouri Valley, Iowa, to-day,
says: The agent of the Milwaukee &
st. Paul railroad, at Vermillion, re.
ports that all but two or three buildings
at Vermillion have been swept away.
The water is up to the roof of the cars

KILLED by His SON

Cannelton, April News has been
received of the killing of Richard
Welch by his son Montgomery Welch,
at the little village Of Derby, Perry
county, last evening. The father had
previously fired several shots at one OF
his sons, and at the time of the killing,
met this son and his mother, who were
returning from visit to lawyer for
the purpose of prosecuting Welch. He
drew a revolver and said that one must
die. The son fired and the father fell
dead. The deceased was a farmer in
good circumstances.

Two Fatal shooting scrnpes.

Cincinnati, April 4.-Timothy l..
Connor, saloon keeper, 239 West Sixth
street, was deliberately shot and fatally
wounded at 8 O'Clock tonight in the
street, by w. 7. johnson, also saloon
keeper and partner Of Alderman Kelly,
noted for his connection with election
frauds. A saloon quarrel was the
cause.

throwing dice with Chas. Coffee, also
a mulatto, and being refused the loan
Of ten cents. went out and got pistol,
and fired at Coffee. The latter fired
six shots, all taking effect-fcur in the

What Democratic senators Propose
TO DO.


Chicago, April A special to the
Inter Ocean says that strong Grant
Conkling paper Ssays: There is an ex-
pectation that the presidents nomina-
tions will be rejected. 1t is under
stood that the democrats will vote SOL
idly for the confirmation. This union
Of sentiment is new born, as week ago
they were divided on the question. OBJ
serving the precedents of the senate to
reject the nominations of the president
that were distasteful to both senators
of any state, the feeling has been stirred
up among them. However, that here
is chance to create lasting division
and wider permanent breach in the
republican ranks, they hold Senator
Conkling responsible for having car
ried New York, and of going far out Of
his way in Indiana and Ohio to carry
those states against Hancock. They
charge that he has impeached the CEN
sus of the south, belittled her CONNER
clal Importance ana waved tne DlOouy
shirt. When the radicals needed an ex-
ecutive policy, they had been further
urged to the opposition to Conkling by
leading democrats in New York, who
discover in the present complication an
opportunity to cripple and defeat him.
On the other hand, many serious con-
servative republicans look with grave
alarm on the break that is supposed to
be inevitable. True, there are those
who say "This agitation is healthy;
that new administration must have
it; that it will all blow ever, and that
Conkling will find that he is but sem
ator and that Garfield is president. "
The conservative men deprecate a
break with the administration.

Earthquaise at Chic.

Constantinople, April A strong
shock of earthquake at Chic, in the
island of that name, yesterday, de-
stroyed many houses and seriously DAM
aged all that were left standing. Many
of the inhabitants were killed and the
remainder are encamped in the fields.
Many of the neighboring villages were
destroyed. During the panic that en-
sued the Eastern telegraph company's
offices were pillaged. Shocks were
also felt inland in Syria and at Smyrna,
but no damage is reported.

ers to call at once upon the officers of
all the important railroads and steam
ship companies to solicit their sub
scriptions, representing to them the
fact that whoever loses money by the
fair, if money is lost, it will not be the
railroad companies. At the meeting
on the 18th inst. it will probably be
definitely settled whether or not the
fair will be held. A letter has been
received by the japanese government
by our state department, announcing
that Japan wished space set apart for
her exhibits, and saying that many OBJ
jects of great value, never yet exhibited
outside Of Japan, would be sent to
New York.

Gen. james VIII Manage ali Postal
Matters.

Washington. April Postmaster
General James is assuming the respon-
sibility of the postal affairs, including
the ''Star" routes, which heretofore
have been controlled by Brady, second
assistant postmaster general. Now
if a contractor on weekly route
between two towns in the far west, 100
miles apart, wants to receive seven
times as much pay for daily service, he
must obtain authority from Postmaster
General James. The consequent saw
ing on ths ''Star'' routes for the pres
sent year is estimated at s1,000,0OO.
The President will send to the senate
Tomorrow a number Of postoflice NOM
nations, but will withhold important
appointments decided upon.

American Trade with Mexico.

Washington, April 4.-Dr. julius A.
Skilton, for eight years consul general
at City of Mexico, is in the city. He
says the American trade with Mexico
has increased sixty per cent, as the re-
suit Of the excursion Of the Chicago
merchants to Mexico in 10. The goods
sold most are machinery and manufac-
tured hareware of all kinds. So much

Hiram Price for Indian Commits

Washington, April 4.-The position
of commissioner of Indian affairs has
been rendered to ex-Congressman
Price, of Iowa, and his nomination will
be sent to the senate at an early date.

Washington, April At is given out
that the republican caucus resolved to
continue the dead lock and fight it out,
but nevertheless, it is reported that the
dead lock will be broken. The presi-
dent yesterday srged Senator Sherman
to SO arrange matters as to confirm the
nominations. The caucus also deter
mined to appoint committee TO take
the remains of the late Senator Carpen-
ter to Wisconsin. The report is that
this movement is to weaken the senate
and prepare the way for breaking the
dead lock. The report is credited by
many.
The caucus was quite decided that to
abandon the position taken now would
only be for the majority to surrender
its rights to the minority. and if done
once it might lead to its frequent repe-
tition. The New York nominations
were not discussed. This determine
tion was reached after an exhaustive
discussion and by vote which is said
to have been substantially unanimous.
The caucus discussed the expediency of
allowing the dead lock to be broken
from time to time for the confirmation
of uninterested nominations, but it was
decided that at least for the present this
course would not be advisable.

ARRESTING THE PROGRESS OF CONsUMP-
TIoN.-The action Of Compound Oxygen
in arresting the progress of pulmonary
consumption has been so marked and con-
slant in our administration of this new
treatment, that we are warranted in say
ing that, if taken in the early stages,
eight out of every ten persons affected
with this disease might be cured. In this
disease, as every one is aware, the only
hope of the patient lies in the establish
ment of a higher vital condition. Now
Compound Oxygen is an agent that gives
directly this new and higher vitality. But
we can not too earnestly urge the necessi-
ty of using this treatment in the very
commencement of pulmonary trouble, and
before the disease has made any serious
inroads upon the system and reduced its
power to contend with so dangerous an
enemy Too many of the cases which
come to us are of long standing, and
the chances for radical and perma-
nent cure just so far remote. That Com
pound Oxygen benefits, or cures, SO large
| a proportion of these, is often as much a
surprise to ourselves as to our patients

A drinking man was told by his physi-
ician to hold his breath while he counted
his pulse, but he couldn't do it, His
breath was too strong for him.
An inquisitive old gentleman OF bo-
tanical turn of mind inquired of the gar
dener in one of the public places of prom
enade, ''Pray, my good man, can you in
form me if this particular plant belongs
to the 'arbutus family?'" when he receiv-
ed for reply: "No, sir, it don't; it belongs
to the corporation.
"Ah, dearest" sighed the young man,
kneeling at the feet of his ownest own,
''dost thou know what of all outward
things is nearest my hearth" Greatly I
can't say" she replied, ''but if you have
any regard for your health in this change
able weather, should think it was a
flannel shirt" She was too practical, and
it broke the engagement.
"Father," asked Johnny, s'what is a
log?" GA log, my son." replied Brown,
stealing hasty glance at Mrs. B. to see
if she was listening for his answer, sta
log, my son, is a big piece of wood or
| timber. Why do you ask, johnny" ssIt
tells in this story about heaving the log,
and it says the ship went IA knots an
hour. What does it mean by knots, faith
err" Knots, Johnny?-knots? Why,
you have seen log-almost always COW
cred with knots-hayen't you? Well,
that's what it means-14 of them-the
ship got by IA of them in an hour. That's
all, Johnny" said Brown, with a sigh Of
relief that he had got out of it so easily.

A ROMANCE ENDED.

And this is the end of it all! 1t rounds the years

Only the sunset light, purple and red on the river
And lingering low "good night" that means goodbye

So be it and God be with you If had been perhaps
more kind
Had you sooner pardon the word been sure of know
ing your mind
Who can bear so much in youth-who cares for a
swift sharp pain?
And the twoedged sword of truth cuts deep, but it
leaves stain!

That never make any show. By time perhaps in my
prayers
may think of you for the rest, on this way we We
trodden together
My foot shall fall lightly as though my heart was
And not womans heart strong to have and to keep
Patient when children cry soft to lull them to sleep;
Hiding its secret close, glad when another's hand
Finds for itself gem where hers found only sand
Goodbye! the year has been bright as oft as the
blossoms come,
The peach with Its waxen pink, the waving snow Of
the plum.
1 shall think how I used to watch, so happy to see
y9n pass
could almost kiss the print of your foot on the dewy
grass.

yours now,
Though you laid it down at my feet could not soor
SO low.
love is but half love that contents itself with less
Than loves utmost faith and truth and unwaverins
tenderness.
Only this walk to the stile; this parting word by the
river,
That flows so quiet and cold, going and flowing
forever.
'Good-bye" Let me wait to hear the last last sounC

SOME VULGARITIES OF ssGOOD
SOCIETY.

Asking questions, private and person
al, is one vulgar habit. and telling your
own business, which no one wants to
hear. is another. Asking the cost of a
present that has been made to you;
pumping" servant to hear what has
been given by way of parting vail loud
talking in public; hard staring at table;
insolent disrespect to husband. wife. sis
ter or brother; showing temper in triAes
and making sceLes in public; showing
an embarrassing amount of fondness
and making love in public; covert
sneers. of which people can see the ami
mus if they do not always understand
the drift; persistent egotism, which
talks forever of itself, itself, itself, only
itself, and cannot even feign the most
passing interest in another; detraction
of friends and it may be of relations-a
husband telling of his wife's unpleasant
ness, wife complaining of her husbands
faults the bold assumption of superior
ity, and the serVile confession of infinite
unworthiness all these are signs and
evidences of vulgarity-vulgarity of
far worse type than that which eats its
fish with steel knife. and says "you
was" and "each of the men were."
In fact. true vulgarity resolves itself
into that central point of evil-sel6sh-
ness. The unselfsh can never be really
vulgar. They may be uncouth, but
they cannot be more; while the best
top-dressing of manner to be found in
the whole world cannot make the sub
stance refined, where that one foul can
ker of egotism and indifference to others
lies at the heart of things.
