A sketch of the WeII-KnOwn Polie

A Sketch of the WelI-KnOwn Police
Oficer Who Died This Morning.
As announced in our first edition Colonel
Andrew j. McClane, a special police officer
on Mayor Almonds police force, died about
$50 this morning at his residence, No. 1923
Tatnall street. The Colonel had been suffer
ing for a long time, but remained on duty
until last Wednesday, when he was obliged
to give up. On Saturday, however, he
visited the City Hall and afterwards drew
his salary, spending the evening in Christy =
cigar store, Sixth and Market streets. He
had not been out of the house since Sunday,
and his trouble increased rapidly until his
death, but he was perfectly conscious up to
the hour of his decease. The cause of his
death was from dropsy, his body becoming
badly inflated.
The Colonel was one of the best known
men on the force as well as i'm the city. He
was always full of good humor and had
hosts of friends, having a bright bit of re-
partee ready on every occasion.
He was popular with every one and his
genial manner and original philosophy
made him quite a character around the City
Hall. He was cigarmaker by trade, and
for a number of years was in the cigar bust
ness in different parts of the city, and also
was proprietor of the National and the Swan
hotels in turn. For few years he ran a
tobacco factory in Connecticut, and spent
some time in visiting prominent localities in
the United States. He was an out-and-out
Democrat, always voted the straight ticket,
and in 1866 was made an aide-de-camp to
Governor Salisbury. He was Sc years OF
age, and leaves widow and four children,
two daughters and two sons.

NEW YORK. 1882.
TIE sun.

The Sun for 1882 will make Its fifteenth
annual revolution under the present manage
ment, shining az always, for all, big and
little, mean and gracious, contcntcd and
unhappy, Republican and Democratic,
dcpraved and yirtuous, intelligent and
obtuse. The SUMS light is for mankind and
womankind of every sort but its genial
warmth is for the good, while it pours hot
discomfort on the blistering backs of the
persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was a newspaper of a new
kind 1t discarded many of the forms and
multitude of the superfluous words and
phrases ofancient journalism 1t undertook
to report in fresh, succnct, unconventional
way all the news of the world, omitting no
event of human interest," and commenting
upon affairs with the fearlessness of absolute
Independence. The success of this expert
ment was the success of The Sun. 1t effected
permanent change in the style of American
newspapers. Every important journal
established in this country in the dozen
years past has been modelled after The SIM
Every important journal already existing has
been modified and bettered by the force of
TIE SUMS example.
The SIN of 1882 will be the same outspoken,
truth-teling and interesting newspaper.
BY liberal use of the means which an
abundant prosperity affords, we shall make
it better than ever before. We shall print all
the news, putting it into readable shape, and
measuring its Importance, not by the
Traditional yardstick, but by its real interest
to the people. Distance from Printing House
square is not the first consideration with
The SIM Whenever anything happens worth
reporting we get the particulars, whether it
happens in Brooklyn or Bokhara.
In politics we have decided opinions and
we are accustomed to express them in
language that can be understood. We say
what we think about men and events. That
habit is the only secret of The SUMS political
course.
The Weekly Sun gathers into eight paees
the best matter of the seven daily issues. An
Agricultural Department of unequalled
merit, full market reports, and liberal
proportion oiliterary, scientific and domestic
intelligence complete the Weekly Sim, and
make it the best newspaper for the farmers
household that was ever printed.
Who does not know and read and like the
Sunday SIN, each number of which is IL
Golconda Of interesting literature with the
best poetry of the day, prose every line worth
| reading, news, humor-matter enough to fill
a good-sized book, and infinitely more varied
and entertaining than any book, big or littlc3
If our idea of what newspaper should be
pleases you, send for The Sun.
Our terms are as follows:
For the daily Sun, a fOur-page sheet of
twenty-eight columns, the price by mail,
postpaid, is 55 cents a month, or $3.50 a
year; or, including the Sunday paper, an
eight-page sheet of fifty-six columns, the
price is 65 cents month, or S7.7O year,
postage paid.
The Sunday edition of The Sun Is also
furnished separately at 81. 30 year, postage
paid.
The price of the Weekly Sun, eight pages,
ilfty-six columns, is 81 year, postage paid.

In the West. The rival orany in America.

In its columns, the news of the world is
given every day In the year, Its two thous-
and correspondents located in every section
of this country and Europe, are the most
reliable news gatherers TO be had, and the
history of each days events will be faith
fully recorded and presented to the public
through the Enquirer, free from distortion
or prejudice.
The province of a newspaper is to record
facts, to separate truth from falsehood. How
well the Enquirer has succeeded in this
duty,we feel pardonahe pride in referring
to its files and past record for evidence OF
its ability and thoroughness IN presenting
all matters treated upon in their true light.
The people of this age require paper fully
abreast of the times, coequal in enterprise,
and material advancement in all mercantile
and political interests, such will the
Enquirer continue to be. Candor and fair
ness will be accorded to all questions and
parties, but the facts will never be perverted.
The immediate future has in store matters
of grave interest to all, and the general
welfare will largely depend upon the
influences of those who are fully cOnversant
with the facts occurring and to occur. The
policy of the government but partially
developed by the New Administration, was
fast winning the confidence of the people,
when the hand of the assassin placed control
ofaffairs in charge of faction whose leaders
have not at all times received favorable criti-
cisms for their public acts. What the future
policy is TO be, will be foreshadowed during
the first year of President Arthur's admins
tration, and presented to the public without
fear or favor, In the columns ofthe Enquirer.

Two Beer-Inspired Germans.

Last night at late hour two Germans
were found in the vicinity of Maryland
avenue and Chestnut street, acting in dis
orderly manner, and just drunk enough to
know what they We're doing. Two officers
proceeded to arrest them, when one of the
men turned upon Officer Query with a PEN
knife. Query jumped back two steps and
planted blow in the fellows eye, knocking
him down. He then jumped his man, captured
the knife, put the nippers on and started for
the City Hall. On the way he was compelled
to throw his charge to the ground once in
order to bring him to submission. The
other officer had no trouble with his prisoner.
This morning the happy pair were before
the Mayor. They could hardly be under
stood, and gave names that sounded like A
| Atlock and Otto Matthews. The first one
was fined 81 and costs, and the other So and
| costs, he being the obstreperous one.
