Mr. Powell at Home.

The Bradford Argus, published at the
home Of Joseph Powell, the Democratic
candidate for state treasurer, thus speaks
of his nomination
1t would be difficult, if not impossible,
to find man who combines greater quail
ificatious or more complete requisites of
trustecship as custodian, treasurer or dis
burser of tho extensive revenues of the
commonwealth, than are contained in
the person of our candidate, Joseph Pow.
ell. His successful management of
every business trust, whether corpor.
ate or individual, hitherto undertaken
and conducted under his supervision, is
sufficient guarantee of what may be antici.
pated in case of his election by the people
to this responsible Office. Springing from
the ranks of the working class and in
sympathy with every branch of productive
industry, he recognizes the importance of
public fidelity and an honest discharge of
official duty as the only true source tf
popular acclaim. So highly is Mr.. Powell
estimated by his fellow citizens without
distinction of party-in case Of his not i'm.
probable election-there are number Of
Republicans in this county who, after
aiding by their votes to his election, stand
ready to act as surety for the honest dis.
charge of his official duty, two Of whom

Aristocratic Puppies.

1t has recently been ascertaincd in Eng
land that the food of pet dogs is a serious
drain upon the edible necessities and lux
uries of man. The absurd fashion of feed
ing pugs on toast aud tea and eggs and
ordering lamb chops for cookers and
poodles has raised a mild protest from
Labouchere, whe acknowledges that for 2
long time his coachman ordered a beef
steak and two glasses Of wine every day
for the use of a favorite dog. There is no
limit to the morbid appetite of these
modern pets. They acquire a taste Of
brandy and soda even, when left to the
caro- of the hcusekeeper aud will eat Rogue
fort cheese and picked oysters like an
alderman. One case was reported of q
Yorkshire terrier whose stomach ,e
belled against everything but roast pleas
ant in and out of season, and another had
acquired decided preference for whit
bait and truftles. It is some comfort t.
know that these pampered animals all die
with gastritis. Your true dog who is o
any service wants his feed flung to him il
the dit, and it must not be of all extra
quality either.

A Band OF Black Sea Pirates.

A dispatch from St. Petersburg, Russia,
says: "a formidable system of fraud has
just been brought to light in connection
with the shipping trade. In less than two
years fifty vessels have been stranded in
the straits of Kertch, or Yenikale, one Of
the most dangerous passages of the Black
Sea, and the English insurance companies
have paid indemnities amounting to many
millions of roubles.
Attention was drawn to the fact that a
great many Of these disasters occurred in
calm weather and information was sent 10
London that an individual named Fran
cesco, former pilot, of italian origin, was
the head of band of pirates wh) made
their living by the disasters on tho coast.
It was alleged that they were in collusiOn
with the pilots and charged huge sums for
assisting the vessels which the pilots
suffered to 60 ashore.
An English marine insurance company
oa learning these facts, sent one of its
agents to Odessa to lay the matter before
the authorities. A preliminary inquiry
has fully confirmed the suspicious of the
insurance oompany's officers and it is said
that some government officials arc COM
promised in the matter.

Finding OF tho Ancient Vessel In q Glsdlez
ON Mount Ararat.
A Constantinople contemporary an
appears that some Turkish commissioners
avalanches on MountArarat suddenly came
upon q gigantic structure of very dark
wood protruding from a glacier. They
made inquiries of the inhabitants 60.
I, ,725 in their report.) These had seen
it for six years, but had been afraid to
approach it because q spirit of fierce
aspect had been seen looking out of the
upper window. Turkish commissioners,
however, are bold men, not deferred by
such trifes, and they determined to reach
it. Situated as it was among the fast
nesses of one OF the glens of Mount Ararat
it was . work of enormous difficulty,
and it was only after incredible
hardships that they succeeded. The
ark, one will be glad to hear,
was in . good state of preservation; al.
though tho angles-observe, not the bow
or stern-had been a good deal broken in
its descent. They recognized it at once.
There was an Englishman among them
who had presumably read his Bible, and
he saw it was made Of the ancient gopher
wood of scripture, which as every one
knows, only grows on the plains of the
Euphrates. Effecting an entrance into the
structure, which was painted brown, they
found that the admiralty requirements for
the conveyance of horses had been carried
out, aud the interior was divided into par
titions fifteen feet high. Into three Of
these only could they get, the others
being full of ice, and how far the
ark extended into the glacier, they
could not tell. If, however, on
being uncovered. it turns out to be 300
oubits long it will go hard with dis
believers in the book of Genesis. '.Needless
to say" says the Pail Hall Gazette, AN
American was soon on the spot, and
negotiations have been entered into with
the local pacha for its speedy transfer to
the United States

What the House Should Now DO.
.h; alalnhin Xnc0rl

=
People cannot bo governed by constitu
tional rules any longer than constitutional
rules are obeyed. When they arc dis
obeyed by the peoples own representatives.
there only remains an appeal to the ballot
for the rectification of the evil.
The Democrats in the Legislature have
now arrived at that point where
the virtue of patience has done its utmost
work. They should pass to final reading
in the House apportionmentb bills represent
ing the utmost concession they are willing
to make to the outrageously unfair de-
mands of their opponents, and, fail
ing tho consideration and approval
of such bills in the Senate, they should i'm
mediately adjourn. They can then go to
the people on the simple question Of tho
enforcement of constitutional authority
and the right of electors to equal represen
tation. The whole onus of the expense Of
the extra cession and of tho deliberate dis
regard of duty in the failure to agree to
proper apportionment bills will devolve
upon the Republican Senate. We have
no idea that the action of the Senate meets
with the approval of fair minded Republi
cans, and do not doubt on a record so
made up the next election will result in q
Democratic victory.

Tho Elevator Danger.

Cincinnati Gazette.
An elevator accident occurred to Tom
Mansell on August 4. which was nearly
being very serious.
On the night in question he started 10
20 to his room at the Grand hotel about
80. His key vas in the elevator
basket. Tom noticed that the door lead
ing to the elevator was open, though no
light appeared. He thought the gas had
been turned off and walked through the
door, To his horror he stepped upon
space and fell ten feet to the floor of the
basement. He was lifted out with very
painful injured right knee. Fortunately no
bone is broken. but he is laid up for prob.
ably fortnight. The elevator boy had
culpably left his post with the door open
and the elevator-which runs by hydraulic
pressure-descended to the bottom. Hence
the accident.
