The latest in the Charlie Ross mat
ter comes from Portland, Maine. A
boy of about eighteen years claims to
be the indcntical Charlie. He says he
remembers being in large house and
taken away by two men in carriage,
was put on vessel and taken to Win
terfort, Maine, where he was kept three
or four years. He was then taken to
Brazil, where he learned that his cap
tors were Jesse James, the Davidsons
and Pinkham. He finally ran away
from them and worked his way back to
Maine. While on the vessel on his re-
turn he worked as a cook.

A vote cast for the Republican tick
ct is an endorsement of the revolution
ary action of the Republican State
senate in refusing to obey the plain
mandate of the constitution that an
apportionment of the State shall be
made after every decennial census.
This refusal has cost the State $4OO, 900.
A Democrat who fails to vote, en-
dorses this outrageous and useless ex-
penditure just as much as the Repub
lican who votes. Stand by your Gov
ernor and your party representatives,
and help to put the seal of condemna
ton on the ultimatumists.

The ancestors of Joseph Powell
Democratic candidate for State Treas.
urer, came to this country century
ago. Mr.. Powell was. born in Bradford
county and has always lived there.
William Livsey, Republican candi
date for State Treasurer, was born in
England, and has been citizen of this
State for only few years.
Last year the Republican press
urged as reason why Pattison should
not be elected, that he was born in
Maryland. If there was any Justice
in this claim then, the fact that Livsey
was born in England is a good reason
why he should be defeated this year.

This is the year for Democrats to
vote the Democratic ticket. Every
vote now counts for 1884. Encou-
ragement to the Republicans in any
quarter, whether they are running for
municipal or state Offices, means just
so much more hard work and uncer-
tainty next year. Turn them out as
you go along.

THE VICTIM OF THE CRIME.
The victim is young woman of
Saugatuck, pretty and accomplished.
Popular with large circle of acquain-
tanccs, gossip has trAed with her good
name, and there have been not infre
quent minors that her husband had
reasons for jealousy, and that her home
life was not happy. The young wife
was full of life and animation. She
cared more for social pleasures than
for the dull routine of home duty, and
it was not unusual that while the huss
band remained at home at night to care
for the family the thoughtless wife was
deeply engrossed in the fascinations of
some rural ballroom. She had many
admirers--and "people will talk" was
the phrase with which her ungenerous
neighbors threw suspicion upon her
life as they shrugged their shoulders
and affected airs to impress their opin-
IONS
Edward Godfrey is one of the best
known residents of Saugatuck He has
lived in the place all his life. Ten
years the senior of his wife, their tastes
in many ways have been marked with
dissimilarity. His disposition has
prompted him to avoid public parade.
He cared more fer the quiet of his home
than for other pleasures, and as the
years went by, it is alleged by those
who claim personal knowledge of the
NATTER that he has become morose and
bad tempered and addicted to sullen
ness
QUARREL AND SEPARATION
A week ago, it is reported, there was
bitter quarrel in the Godfrey house
hold and the husband is said to have
told his wife that he could no longer
stand her conduct. She must reform
or leave his house elimination and
recrimination made the scene bad
one, and uncorroborated rumors say
that threats were interchanged. Julia
Godfrey, at least, did not spend anoth-
er night under the roof which had
hitherto sheltered her, since the day
when, eight years ago, bride of eigh
teen, she came from Bridgeport to make
all the girls of Saugatuck neighborhood
envious of her pretty face
1t is another mystery and there are
surrounding circumstances which
promise to make the case as famous
as the crimes which ended in the una
venged deaths of Mary StaDnard, Jen-
ME Cramer and Rose Clark.
