PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS.
The great State of Pennsylvania is Just
now attracting an unusual share of material
attention and have, since my arrival here,
been examining the probabilities of Rcpub-
lean triumph and possibilities of a Demo
cratic defeat. If the election could have been
held last month there is not doubt in the
mind of those having intimate knowledge Of
the situation, but that democratic governor
the first in twenty years-would have been
elected. But-and there is a world of pos
sibilitics in that word in this connection
every day and every hour since has denim
ished the chance Of Democratic success.
Every day and every honr is so much gain
ed for the Republican ticket. For there has
never been any real grievance demanding
what is called an independent movement
outside of the party. 1t is undeniablc that
the leader of the so-called Independent re-
formers are, and have been all the time
either pseudo Democrats or grasping Re
publicans seeking only individual gain. The
State vote in Pennsylvania is 100000.
whereof the Republicans poll 365,00O, and
the Democrats 2e5,G9O, while those who
call themselves Independent foot up 1000;
and it is these last who demand the naming
ofthe ticket for the 365 900. Briefly, how
ever, it may he stated that the Republicans
have not surrendered to their independent
Democratic dcIsand, and ms we are getting
nearer and nearer election day The 1bg is
rolling off, the atmosphere v clearing, and
voters are begiping to sec the cloxen spirit
that actuatcs the movement. For Instance,
tho expenses of the city government u Rhil-
ildelph:it sla,e just been estimated ut SlO.-

The most disgusting case of cruelty that
has been brought before the public lately
occurred in the wicked city Of Denver last
week. A mother, while the husband was
absent in the morntains, deliberately for
sook home and heridiotic helpless boy Of l !
years, and adopted life of prostitution.
The child was found wallowing in the
streets starving and in n revolving condi-
tion of filth. He was taken to hospital
fed and clothed. 1t is feared that the in
human mother has succeeded in per,uad-
ing her sixteen year old daughter to follow
her example. When the father returned
and learned the state of afiitirs, his distress
was pitiful.

the hot springs of Arkansas COM
bined. In a broken mirror upon
the wall he appeared like a foun-
tain of molten brass. Streams Of
perspiration playfully poured down
the crease of his garments and per-
colated through the cane seat Of his
chair TO the floor, where they formed
puddles in which cockroaches in
search of a sea breeze navigated On
RATS built of paper paragraphs which
had not been otherwise utilized be-
cause of the petrefaction Of his pot
of paste by the heat. In vain he
endeavored to write. AS fast as he
put a point on his pencil and brought
it to an angle approximating the per-

out of its wooden overcoat, and
forming itself into minute globules,

May his best friend run off with his

1t has been 4 wonder to many
why Guiteau did not keep his word
and "trip his wife OPEN" The toll
lowing explains the reason and shows
that he is not crazy: Sin CONVEX
sation to-day with Mr.. Dunmire, the
husband of Guiteau's divorced wife,
it was ascertaineG that he had fully
made up his mind to shoot the pris-
oner in the courtroom, had he in
terposed any reflections con her
character during the giving of her
testimony. He said, further, he had
associates who would have stood by
him to the last extremity. This IN
formation was given TO Mr.. Scoville
in advance and herein probably lies
the secret of Guiteau's extremely
quiet and complacent demeanor on
the occasion. He was sane enough
in that respect, and ane enough to
know that a Colorado miner was the
man to carry out his threats.
