His horse was eaten up, and not bone

found in the tree next morning by some
passing Indians and rescued "

EARLY KNOCKDO WNS.

Democratic candidates for the next
Presidency are being killed early in the
fray. Senator George Fl. Pendleton, of
Ohio. belonging to the esthetic democrat
ic school, rather priding himself on the
cognomen Gentleman George placed
himself in training, but in an evil mo-
ment he committed himself fairly and
souarely in favor of Civil Service Reform
in stirring speech in the Senate. This
above all things is an abomination to
the average democrat, for what but the
love, and want, for that matter, of Office
has governed his political actions for the
past 20 years! ''To the victors belong
the spoils'' has been the cornerstone of
the democratic faith since the principle
was inaugurated by democratic admin
istration many years ago. Mr.Pendleton
was not long in discovering that the
ground he took upon the distribution of
Offices regardless of political afinities, had
few if any followers in the democratic
party and Gentleman George has retir-
ed i'll good order. Ex-senator Joseph E.
Mcdonald, of Indiana, has had the presi
dental lee buzzing in his bonnet for q
long time and his status looked quite
promising until along came the New
York Sun and tells tale out of schoo
which places Mac in very awkward Pc
sition before his brethren of the fold
eve believe" says the Sun, ''that at tn
close of MI. McDonald's career in thu
Senate he voted in favor of the star-rout
Postofdce swindles; and, pursuing tn
same injudicious and unpatriotic course
he subsequently lent his influence in be
half of jay Gould to the confirmation Q
Stanley Matthews as Judge of the Su
creme Court! Neither of these transao
tions can recommend Mr.. Mcdonald t

ROBBERY NOT LUCRATIVE.

At the time that the Missouri bandit,
Jesse James, was killed in the city OF
S.. Joseph, he was living obscurely in a
very small way with his family, and after
his death his wife was found 70 have but
three hundred dollars 70 maintain her
sci: and her children, Notwithstanding
that the plumber OF the express car alone
had yielded to the thieves 4 quarter O: a
million dollars. The money had all been
~squandered. or divided among the con-
spirators, and by paying people TO aid
the leader in escaping justice. So this
zor. Of robbery appears after all 70 be a
poor business.

ALI. DEAD.

An official dispatch, brief. but wofully
expressive, has been received at Wash
incton. stating that the De Long party
have been CONDITIONED, all dead. This
would seem like a terrible lesson to those
adventurous spirits who IN the future
NAV be disposed to take their lives
in their own hands for flames or
sciences sake, and venture into the fatal
regions Of the Pole. Bat the %sufeEings
and awful death Of those brave souls will
not be needed as a warning. Already
new expeditions to the Arctic regions
are in contemplation. There viii be no
4 feultv TO find commanders and sea-
msn .5r them. Should it be announced
that 4 ship will leave New York or San
Francisco within / month, on a cruise 10
explore the Arctic Zone, before the time
Of depar.are has arrived there would be
more applications from Jealous and COM
petent persons for such a voyage than
would be necessary to man a dozen ships
Tor the purpose. There IS a possible
compensation for this seemingly i~nevita-
Die selt-destruction Of excellent men,
in the prospect that through their en-
deavofs some scientific discovery will be
made by which the world at large will
he benefited. This speculation against
odds, however, seems hardly more than .
delusive fancy INDUCED in by scientists
for the want Of more substantial reason
ing. Such argument, at best, can bring
no consolation to Mrs. De Long and
Others who feel. in the loss Of those
whom they hold dearest and best, the
extreme folly 0; hunting for possibly
useless knowledge in the face OF almost
certain death.
