Of 1t, upon the pages of numberless novels,
so that one who has never seen hawthorn
hedge, an UNCOVERED chapel or an old man
or house with its fine people and its match
less home-comforts, still knows them famil-
iarly through long line of brilliant stories
and essays, we have had no writers who
have essayed so general and so elaborate
work. Very striking and very bright and
spirited touches of American life and man
ners one may read anywhere in our current
literature, and very choice "studies" in char
actsr have been constantly offered us; but
they mostly have only local coloring and q
passing interest. Cooper gave us the Amer
can scenery and the wild life of our frontier,
but who since has even attempted to picture
a people and country in series of elabor-
ate stories or even sketches9 Joaquin Mil
Ter and Bret Harte have illumined mining
camps and mountain peaks with the flashes
of their peculiar genius, but spring torrents

national life.

The stealing of the remains of A. T.
Stewart few years ago opened up TO the
imaginative reporter new field of enter
prise. and now once or twice year the pub
lie is treated TO q sensational story of an at
tempted, or intended, theft of the body of
some distinguished man. The latest one
which relates to an alleged plot to steal the
remains of Abraham Lincoln, is peculiarly
tedious in its details, and the reporter who
worked it up, has undoubtedly distanced all
competitors in this kind of enterprise.
There is no truth in the story, but that does
not injare it for the purpose for which 1t
was designed, viz: to crafty the morbid
taste of a certain class of newspaper readers
which exists everywhere, but in greater
numbers in Chicago than anywhere else,
judging by the number of startling things
which are not so, that are reported in Chi
cago journals.

Mr.. Abraham S. Hewitt has been in this
country but few days, having recently re-
turned from abroad; but he has been here
long enough to get into trouble. The World
reported him as abiding to the New York
Suns pet candidate for President as a cheese
parer whose sole aim is money. Subsequent
~ the Herald reported him as saying that
he never could have spoken Of Mr. Holman
as cheese parer because he considers him
one of the purest and most upright men in
Congress. The Sun sententiously remarks
that this is a curious contradiction, but pro-
fesses to believe the Herald, adding, "Other-
wise we should hasten to withdraw the
name Of Mr.. Hewitt as man we could ap-
prove as a candidate for Vice President"

P1TTsBURG. Pa, Jan. 22.-The conven-
ton of railroad coal miners will be held
tomorrow 10 discuss the wages question.
The men are now working for three and a
half cents per bushel, but in view of the
fact that the river miners have decided to
strike for four cents, the convention has
been called to consider the advlsability of
also demanding an additional one-half
cent. 1t was thought, however, that no strike
would be inaugurated, as a movement is
on foot between mine officials and some of
the operators to have proposition pre-
scented to the convention to settle the wages
question hereafter by arbitration ana thus
avoid strikes, which have become SO fre
quent of late.

MEN, much learned, often so astray in
pronouncing judgments upon public
topics. Acting under the inspiration of
ex- Senator Thurman, the Democrats of
the Ohio legislature pronounced against
Senator Pendleton's civil service bill,
which they now deeply regret, and holly
charge their faur pas to the venerable
senator. Mr.. Thurman has made mis-
takes before. He stultifed himself on
the money question just at the right
time to prevent his reelection to the
United States Senate, and now when re-
form of the civil service is a matter re-
garding which the people are very much
in earnest, he commits hari- and his
chances to appear again are diminish
ed if not absolutely obliterated. The diff
ficulty with men of Thurman's habit of
mind is, they do not understand human
nature, and their really great talents are,
therefore, of little or no value to their gen

THE RaR,L 4RRITES.

The Senator with bar'l has left his
duty at Washington, and is now among US.
He comes upon the announcement of his
organ, the Pioneer Press, that there zone or
two dozen ineffably dirty creatures in the
legislature waiting to be bought" AS he
lacks Just about that number of votes to
secure an election, he shouldered his bar'l
and came on.
We very much mistake if the contemptu-
Gus insult to the members of the legisla-
ture by WINDOWS organ is not hurled
back at him by the refusal
of members to change their votes.
One thing is certain, no man who has
left the Mr.Windom's standard can now re-
turn, without, not only swallowing the in
suit, but also becoming open to the sus-
picion of purchase. As there is an investigat-
ing committee already raised in each house
and as, aside from the disgrace, the pen
atty IS Imprisonment in the penitentiarY,
the bar'l is not likely to be potential. The
public record of the votes fixes the status
of every member of the Legislature,
and the man who goes back to
Window under the magic influence
of his presence, simply accepts the posi-
ton given him by the Pioneer Press of a
'feeble minded fool and knave," or an
''inefably dirty creature who has been
waiting to be bought
It will be interesting to see who desire
to place themselves in this category.

Between 4 and O'Clock yesterday after
noon, a belated Eastern train, on the Mil
waukee 81 st. Paul road, drew into the
union depot. A very solitary individual
alighted therefrom-a much more solitary
individual than G. P. r. James celebrated
solitary horseman. The solitary person
was Senator Window, and the only poodle
accompaniment was Mail Agent Sim Child,
who, after being kicked out of town
by the friends of Windom,"
had abjectly gone to Chicago
to meet his master. Window evidently
did not intend to unnecessarily waste the
bar'l and he and Sim walked up to the
Merchants hotel. The bar'l Senator turned
neither to the right or the left
but brushed pass friend and
foe alike until he reached
the hotel Office, where he duly registered
his name. Josef, of the Pioneer Press,
was within ten feet of him, but he had no
eyes for any one. Elk United States Mar

special charge of the great man. They
consulted with him and with each otner
during the day at the Merchants and an
occasional member of the legislature call

the Merchants was monotonous and un-
eventful.
About 8 p. m. he shook the dust off from

The officers of the steamer Sultan, which
collided with and sunk the Cimbria on the
German ocean, seem to have acted with
the utmost heartlessness. They did not
stop to ascertain the extent of the damage
their boat had inflicted, nor how far their
own craft wasIdisabled, but incontinently
put for the nearest port, leaving hundreds
of human beings to perish IN the frigid
waters. In striking contrast was the con-
duct of the officers Of the Kirby Hall,
which ran down the City of Brussels two
weeks previously. Regardless'o of their own
safety they put about and assisted in saw
ing the passengers and crew of the ill
fated steamer, succeeding in preventing
the great loss of life that would have in
evitably ensued otherwise. A rigid inquiry
into the Cimbria disaster is impefatively
demanded. The captains statement that
he lay around for FIVE hours is manifestly
an afterthought, as if he had done SO he
could not have arrived in port as promptly
as he did.

ChntHfth Riadoa,a.


A GLOBE envoy obtained an interview
with Senator Window shortly after his ar
rival at the Metropolitan hotel, finding him
in the company. of friend who cham
pioned his cause, and sandwiched in re-
marks as the conversation progressed.
After the interchange of the usual civilities
the talk ran about as follows:
"Well, senator, what kind of trip did
you nave from Washington"
"Oh, had rather tedious trip; we had
to lay over seven hours at Chicago"
81 see that you are reported in morn
ing paper as having been interviewed by a
Chicago Tribune man"

nal, but had little to say to him."

cit is"
"It was said in that interview that sew

ture voted for you."
eyes; that is about So"
Right here Mr.. WINDOWS friend remark
ed that the number was eighty.
"Well, Senator, how do you find
things?" queried the scribe.
81 really have not had time to look over
the field; I have but just arrived"
'Can you say something regarding tn Q
present situation?"
@Not at this time; 1 may do so later. I
really have nothing to tell"
'EThere are rumors of your withdrawal.
How about them?"
Here again the senator's confidential
frieRd-for such he seemed to be-chimed
in and said there was not the shadow OF
truth in them; the senator was still in the
field and was likely to be.
And the senator himself remarked that
he was still being voted for; he had not
fallen off any in yesterdays vote, and
could count on fifty three.
The political commissioner then queried:
"Why were not the eighty votes con-
eentrated in one ballot?"
Again, the confidential friend came to
his rescue, and said:
"Well, you see, they kept picking off one
or two of our men from day to day, and 80
reduced our vote.''
"But was not that due to lack of organ
ization on the part of Mr.. WINDOWS
friends ?' said the interlocutor.
'No," said Mr. Window, II think my

Addressing the senator direct, the scribe
questioned slow about the movement in
behalf of Mr.. Sabin? Is there anything

point, but have every reason to rely On

The c. f. broke in again with a similar
emark to that of the senator.

lueried the scribe.
