An Ohio journal on Two Great Crimes
Cambridge Jeffersonian1

lOduDrlOBe JeuerSOQlan.l
The crime of putting Hayes into the Ex-
ecutiye seat to which he was not called by
the voice of the electoral colleges was an as
sassination of Republicanism. The criminal
participants were rewarded by money, place,
and power. The yenal administration of
public affairs which followed had for its
object only the placation of thieves, and
perjurers and bride takers, and bride givers.
The damning partnership against patriotism
will forever make danger of evil influences
in all the affairs of the Nation. The success
Of the crime made the weak and the vicious
believe that like wrongs might again be per-
petrated. and that the criminal might not
only escape, bat be rewarded for his crimes.
Hayes crime was the parent of Guiteaus
crime. The assassination of the republic
was the precedent for the assassination of
the President. Guiteau's expectations were
built upon the rewards given by Hayes to
political assassins. Thus do the crimes OF
one political era become the horrors of the
next The two eras and the chief actors in
them will 60 DOVE in history into eternal
infamy together.

A Story of Cairo,

All the ear Round.
A great scandal occurs TO my mind as
happening at Cairo in 1880. Scheikh Ha-
muda Berda lived in quarter of the town
less fashionable than is generally affected
by wealthy saints who have gained public
recognition. With modest assurance he de
clared that Allah had personally granted
him authority to cure all diseases.
BY the hand of Mahomet him
self, the Merciful One copfded to MIN
drugs and lotions which restored the sight,
replaced the amputated limb, and so on. As
for mere pains and aches he removed them
at word. During many years residence at
Cairo, vast number of persons prOfted by
his supernatural skill, but he specially laid
himself out for female patients. In later
times, the good man found his practice so
large that he could no longer attend poor
people. From every part of Egypt, Arabia
and Syria, wealthy ladies came to consult
the Scheikh. and of course they brought a
handsome present.
One day, toward the middle of last wear,
the young wife of Izzet Bey, a Colonel in
the Egyptian service, proposed to visit him
for an affection of the eyes. The Colonel
sent her proper retinue of attendants, who
returned, know not why, after depositing
their mistress at the door of Hamunda
Berda. She entered with a favorite slave.
but never came out again. For some days
her husband was not alarmed since surgical
operations demand certain time. Anxious
at length, he called upon the Schelkh,
whose manner was noS reassuring. He
protested that the young woman had
left on the evening of her ar
rival. cured. The Colonel was not
satisfied He appealed to the police and
they searched the dwelling infinitely; pre-
sumo that lzEet Beg is man of influence
Nothing was found in the sanity house, but
very foul and malodorous we'll in the gar
den drew their notice. Removing the cover
they found the corpses of the young woman
and her slave, among such a mass of putrid
bones as showed that Wholesale murder had
been going on for years. Brought before
the Cadi, the saint confessed his habit of
strangling every woman who came TO consult
him, il her jeweiry seemed worth the trouble.

In one of the New York restaurants the
her day reporter of the World sat at a
table with . man who may be called Smith.
In few minutes young fellow, say Jones,
abont seventeen, sat down by Smith and the
two fell into conversation. The conversation
was in nowise remarkable save for the
excessive reverence. admiration and belief
In the city of Boston expressed freely by
the younger of the two According
to Jones, Boston has done everything little
sooner, little better or little more thor
oughly than any other place on the foot
stool. Smith seemed anxious to touch upon
some subject which would not suggest the
Hub to Jones, but has efforts were unavail-
