Conkling's Late speech.

T ~ i
The speech delivered by ex-senator
Conkling in New York city recently
has furnished the Eastern press with
theme for pnceasing comment. He
lauded General Grant, who was pres-
ent, as soldier and statesman, and
referred to the late Chicago Conyen-
ton, at which an unsuccessful attempt
was made to nominate Grant for Pres
ident. He asserted that four lu inbred
and twenty Of the delegates to that
convention were sent for specific
purpose, not instructed merely, but
bound in honor to God and man to dis.
charge certain obligations, and those
obligations were to vote for the nomi-
nation of Grant for President of the
United States. Many Of those violat.
ed their obligations, and he believed
as firmly as he believed anything that
their work has cost this nation in pro-
gress fully ten years, and now the
Democrats we're about to take the
country.
Conkling sarcastically begged par
don for abiding to the word leader in
his speech, remarking that it is term
Of opprobriunf, all epithet, nowadays.
To be leader now is to be a boss,
and there is no end of men who think
it desirable to deride and pull down
bosses. He said that the so.called
fight against bosses is the particular
| form that certain class of men give
to a raid upon superiority. "Point
out to me boss,' said Mr.. Conkling
haughtily. "and l will show you mar
who, by virtue of his ability, deserves
to be boss"
He charged that the present leaders
of the Republican party, the states
men who run the Government, have nc
greater ambition than to find out what
boy or girl shall have place in the
Government employ, and when they
turn away from that great issue per.
haps they will give some attention te

peared for the plaintiff, and M N.
Stone of this city and Samuel NJ. Will
son of San Francisco for the defend

the defense would file no answer to the

A Word to Bachelors.

A Connecticut paper, Published near
a hat factory, says: Gentlemen
should never fail to investigate be-
meath the sweat bands of their new
hats. These bands are stitched in by
girls, and it has come to be quite a
common thing for them to either write
their name and address on the inside
of the band. or to write it, sometimes
including little note, upon a slip of
paper, which is stitched in. If a girl
is of an aspiring nature she honors
only the most expensive hats with her
name; but ofteEtmes the name of a
don't-care girl may be found in the
plainest kind of felt SLOUGH. 1t is
authoritatively stated that several
good matches have been cemented up.

a Strange Suicide.
Wood River Times.

Yesterday case came to trial be-
fore Probate Judge Parsons, in which
Harry Curtiss sued John Jurgens and
obtained judgment for 500.
The circumstances which led to the
suit were as follows: Jurgens took up
two horses under the estray law and
advertised them, but failed to file a
copy of the advertisement with the
County Recorder. A few months later
he sold the horses to plaintiff, from
whom the original owners obtained
possession by proving property, where
npon suit was instituted by Curtiss to
recover what he had paid Jurgens for
them. Jurgcns took the verdict very
seriously. and without a word return
ed home to his ranch, eight miles be-
low town on Wood River. This morn
ing his wife discovered him hanging
a lifeless corpse at the end of rope
He had no children, was so years old
and despondent-in which mood he
evidently committed suicide. His
ranch was fine one, and last fall he
sold considerable hay in Haley which
he had cut from it.
