A Costly Victory for Democrats.

InuIanapOIls Daily NcW5.
That Virginia election is going to be the
costliest victory the Democrats have won for
years. Like Mahone's own previous victo-
ries, it is not the fact that repels people, but
the methods. The Virginia Bourbons have
sprung an issue, which, though it may not be
as tough as a tanner, and last you nine
years" will last next year, through the pres
idential election.

Indianapolis the capital of the old Hoosier

the Union; its unrivaled railroad facilities;
its hotel accommodations, and the loyalty of
its people to the Republican party, should be
the place selected for the national conven-

SHORTHAND by MACHINE.
A Little Nine-Keyed Instrument That Is
Played with Both Hands.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
A young man sat in an office up owl with
a small nine-keyed instrument on the table
before him. Eight small round keys wi tn a
broad key in the middle were arranged in a
line. They were attached to small metal
shafts which converged beneath a roll of
narrow paper at the back of the machine.
The instrument is called a stenograph, and is
almost noiseless. The nine keys are really
only five, for each small key on the right is
joined to the corresponding key on the left.
Thus four OF the five characters which the
keys print on the roll of paper can be struck
with either haud at will, and the middle key
with either thumb.
The five characters struck are simply five
short dashes all running one way-that is,
crosswise Of the strip of paper. Their value

Liberty Herald.
The indianapolis Daily Journal is one
among the best Republican Journals pub
lished in the United States. AS u newspaper,
its columns reflect the current news OF the
world; as a State paper it gives more Indiana
news than any other paper in the State; as a
party paper it is consistently Republican and
has the courage of it's convictions, and does
not hesitate to approve that which is bene-
fetal to the people or condemn that which is
detrimental to them. without regard to

A Lover OF the Chase,

Once upon time the Duke of Grafton
"A man who loved the chase dearly
had assembled at his country residence
hunting party, snd Of the number was
young curate who had thought of asking
his lordship for certain living then
about to become vacant, but he had not
yet had tho courage to do so. The
morning for the setting forth of the first
hunting party arrived, and in due time
they were on their way to the cover
where the fox was to be found. And it
was soon found and started. The hounds
were set free and sped away, and away
went the sportsmen, and of all in the
purity not ono Of them entered into the
spirit Of the sport with keener zest than
did our young ourate. He had found n
capital mount-a horse that feared moth
ing-and man and beast were well
matched. The duke was riding in nd.
vance OF the curate, urging his horse
furiously, when the animal missed his
footing at a ditch, horse and rider both
pitching in.
"Ho no y shouted the curate, rs the
duke lifted his head. Gle still. your
Grace, and I'll go safely over YOU"
And he did 30. At bound his horse
cleared the ditch, flying over the pros.
trate nobleman and his foundering ami
NAL, and away he went like the wind
after the hounds. The poor curate when
his ardor had cooled and he came to re-
fleet upon what he had DONE made M
his mind that all hope of prefermeut at
the hands Of the duke might be given
up. But not 80. His Grace returned
with a whole skin, and almost his first
exclamation on entering the castle was
where's the curate? want him to
have the very first good living that falls
vacant within my domain. He goes to
his work with ardor. What his hands
have found to do he will do quickly.

stopped aud offered to help me out of

patrouize mel never would have helped

The Oldest Historians.

Herodotus is the Oldest of the Greek
historians. He was born 4S4 b. G..
He is generally recognized as the father
of history. Bcrosus was an educated
priest of Babylon, who lived about 800
b. c., and wrote in Greek three books
of Babylonian-Chaldean history, tho
materials for which he declares he
found in the ancient archives of Baby
lon. Manetho was an Egyptian histo-
rian, OF the priestly order, who lived in
the reign of Ptolemy Softer, in the be-
ginning If the third century b. @. He,
too, obtained the material for his works
from the temple records at his COM
mand, from which he wrote two works,
one on the religion and the other on the
history of Egypt. Only fragments of
of the writing of Berosus and Manetho
remain-preserved in the works of Jo-
sephus, Eusebius and other later
writer's. There are historical records
on the ancient monuments of Egypt,
Babylon and Assyria which date back
to earlier days, but, except the histor-
zeal books of the Old Testament, be-
ginning with those of Moses (who was
born 1913 b. O., and some of the writ
ings OF Confucius (born 551 b. O.,
there is nothing antedating the writings
OF Herodotus that is regarded as his
tory.
