Hon. Simon Cameron, OF Pennsylvania,
received number OF his friends ut the Gil

| To those who offered their condolences he
affected great indifference rs to the victory
of the Independents, and remarked that he
was not troubling himself about politics at
all. He held oStcntatiouSly in his hand a
copy Of the Vicar Of Wakefield, which he
said he had been reading, but from his de-
pressed manner Lis visitors were inclined
! to believe he had been peruSing the election
returns. Ii is reported that in answer to
some good natured badinage he denounced
the independents a rebels ard traitors, and
said the mistake the regular Republicans
had made was in recognizing or treating
with them at all. He declared "thcy should
have been ignored and treated Is the COM

advancement, and 1t was themselves and

THE DEMOCRATIC TRIUMPH.
THE TOPIC OF THE DAY DISCUSSED
BY JOURNALS AND STATESMEN.
Tho Democratic Opportunity.

New Haven (Conn.l Register, Dcmocraic.l
The tidal wave which has swept so
cleanly over the country has furnished the
Democrats not only with complete vic
tory. but has also given them an oppor-
tunity such rs they have never had before
in the history OF the two great political
partles. The victory is to be received
with such manifestations OF ioy and salts
faction as may seem proper. but the OPP
portunity Is TO be studied carefully and
viewed in all its various phases. IL Is eyl-
dent that the people OF the country are
through with the corrupt Republican or
panization, and are Disguised with its polt-
zeal depravity and deceit. They look to
the Democratic party, the party OF and for
the people, in the future. In ether words.
the opportunity is gwen the Democratic
party 10 respect that confidence placed IN
il by the great mass OF voters, and increase
II bv wise legislation and honest admins
tration. For the next two years the victo-
rious party will be on probation. Its course
in Congress, where its majority is over
whelming, will be closely watched and
criticised, in view OF the presidential cleo
ton i'm 1884. The young men raised to po-
sitions OF gravity and honor in their several
States will also be closely watched in view
of material for the national convention to
| be held two years hence. In fact The
Democratic party, as it stands to-day,
has every opportunity to so conduct
itself, in the interests Of good gov
eminent and the people that in 1894
the voters OF this country viii say: "Well
done. good and faithful servants" The
Republican party, iussy rs it has been OF
recent years in plotting and Matching
schemes OF extreme danger to the insiitu-
tions Of free government, has received a
death-bow which only worse legislation on
the part Of the Democrats can condone.
This blow cannot purify the party in two
years, and it remains only for the Demo-
cratic party to prove to the country its
ability to guide the course Of public affairs
i'm the interests OF the many and not in the
interests Of the few. This is the Opportu-
nitv the people have given the party, and
il it does not improve it and win the next
presidential fight it will be no ones fault
but its own.

THE SAME OLD STORY.

Last year there was a grand eques tri-
enne race at Rockford, which was won by
Miss Pinneo. The Dubuque Herald con-
tains the following concerning her: A
year or so ago Miss Pinneo, of Greeley,
Colorado, came into prominence by going
about the country and riding horses IN
twenty mile running races. She appeared
at Omaha, Des Moines, Minneapolis and
other points, and her name became famil-
lar one among lovers of turf sports. She
was good girl when she entered upon her
career, but of late it seems that she has
been living fast life in more than one
respect Now comes the news that she IS
dead, and by her own hand. she having
taken poison on the train between Law
renee and Topeka, and died on the cars.
She arrived at Lawrence with saloon man
from Topeka named Baxter. They took
rooms at hotel as man and wife, and the
next day the man disappeared. Miss Pin
neo bought some strychnine, had her pho
tograph taken, wrote several letters, board
ed the train for Topeka. swallowed the
fatal dose and soon was a corpse.

MIDNIGHT ADVENTURE.

The ARGUS will not give his name be-
cause he is a well-known young society
man, of Rock Island, but the facts associ-
ated with recent midnight rambie re-
mind one quite forcibly of the axiom that
truth is stranger than fiction.
His name is-well. he shall be known as
Jones. Last Wednesday evening, he went
over to Davenport on the boat and had
the usual blissful tete-a-tete with his adored
one whom he hopes, at not distant day,
to call Mrs. Jones. Not far from 10 o'clock
he started for home, on this side of the
river, via the bridge. Had it not been for
the very black clouds with which the heav-
ems were draped the night would not have
been very dark one, as it was, however,
he was compelled to feel his way pretty
cautiously. While still on the bridge and
approaching the draw, he saw something
black and white fluttering along across the
bridge roadway, now still for a moment
and then running along few inches like
q feather moved by the gentle evening
breeze. Jones stopped, watched it for few
moments and concluded that il was lady s
hat and that it was his duty to secure it
and find its owner, if she hadn't committed
suicide. He advanced to pick it up
and when almost touching the haiti it
would apparently blow a little farther
away from him. In this connection the
one thing which puzzled Jones was the
fact that it would move as often against
the wind as from it, but not being well up

IN WASHINGTON.

A delegation of seven Sac and Fox In
dams, of Iowa, accompanied by Agent
Davenport, had conference with Indian
Commissioner Price yesterday. They re-
presented about twenty-five members of
their tribe. who are opposed to signing
receipts for annuities as they believe that
if they put their names to paper they will
die. Three hundred and twenty five mem
bers of the tribe have already signed. Com
missioner Price informed them that the
money, some $11. 900. would be withheld
until every one belonging to the tribe had
signed the roll of the department. The
delegation consists of three fisrt-class chiefs,
Pasitonoke, Ano Want and Chuky Mukko,
Counsellors KHnnepaw, Kah, Ashoton and
Cahwanch and Showon, an interpreter.
They appeared at the department in war
paint and wore an abundance of feathers,
Two or three of them carried tomahawks.

again to catch hats and things.
