THE Cleveland Plain Dealer thinks'the
perpetuity Of the Democratic party" does
not depend upon Mr.. PendletOn. No,
nor does its perpetuity depend on the
Cleveland Plain Dealer, or Cincinnati
Enquirer, or even 1.-The triple alliance"
Nevertheless, the Democratic party, as
such; is true to principle, and stands by
him who never faltered under calamity
nor swerved from Democratic duty. This
is why Senator Pendleton should be and
will be reelected.

'Of Napoleon Bonaparte." Carp does
not say which Napoleon, whether Napo-
leon the great or Napoleon the little.
This Washington writer marries the
Major to "a daughter of Cornelius Ault-
man." To this we protest, for Mrs. Nc
Kinley is worthy lady, and daughter
of James A. SaxtOn. Carp" should be
more particular. He should also re-
member that, as Dogberry says, Com
parisOns are OdOrOus." The Major should
put a stop to this Napoleon business.

Dispatch speaks as follows OF this play:
"The Girl 1 Love, or A Diamond Mys-

ing impression and Is nightly testing
the capacity of the Peoples theatre.
The play has a strong plot, intense dra-
matte situation, interesting story Of he
home circle and its influence for good,
while the star part of Peter GTump,
the lawyer, is the best American charac-
ter creation of the present century. An
other noticeable feature of the play is
the fact that a young Jew is made hero
and a gentleman. It will always be
welcomed in ST. Louis.
