Accidental Shooting Near Newcastle.


Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
New CASTLE, May 13.-This afternoon two
young men, Albert Compton and William Hutch
ison, were out hunting and, finding game scarce,
decided to throw up hats and fire at them.
Comptons statement is that Hutchison threw up
his hat twice and he compton, paid no attention
to it, but on the third toss of the hat
Compton fired. and lodged about
sixteen No. shot in the forehead
Of Hutchinson, who fell, as is supposed, mortally
wounded. BY Compton's own confession he is
guilty of the most lnexcusahle criminal careless
ness, he having his gun cooked and under his
right arm and standing about fifteen feet in
front of Hutchinson 1t is alleged that he
raised the barrel of the gun while holding it in
this position, without holding the raised hammer
with his hand.
Lateral this hour it is reported that
Hutehison's brain is oozing from the gaping
wound and that he is dying.

The Cabinet Story.

We hardly credit the story. however

recently-he has reached such sublim-
ity of stupidity that there is hardly any
thing in this line that might not be cred
tied to him. But we should suppose
that the very habit of his life, to say
nothing of his exp arience and natural
suspiciousness, would deend him
against the subtle bargains that Blaine
is accustomed to make in advance Of
favors only to repudiate them after their
benefits have been enjoyed. Senator
Conklng and others learned to their
lasting disgust, four years ago that it
was risky TO place any confidence in the
promises OF Presidential candidates in a
corner, but if Garfield was not to be
trusted, how much less can the slippery
man who carries the Republican stan
dard this year be entitled to have his
word accepted az its face value. But
if, on general principles, this ele-
ment OF doubt were not enough, it
must be remembered that the per-
petual candidate has had some expert
cnre already with the good faith of the
pIumed knight, He was promised the
chairmanship of the Committee on APP
preparations by Speaker Blaine, and lay
in wait for the latter at his very door.

The End Of MahoneiSm.

Mahone. who has been trying in va
rious WAYS du ing the past several
years to saddle the Old Dominion with
Republican corruption. is sad to be in
deep trouble. He was Arthur's chief
reliance at Chicago, but, as A thur was
not nominated. he has little or. no use
for Malone, consequently the tidgety
little politician has about come 10 the
end of his row as person of influence.
Lately, he has almost dropped out of
public notice, but he is still engaged,
by every trick and device known to
the politician, to regain his hold on the
white voters of Virginia.
That he will fail goes without saying,
for while there are many honest men
in that State who can be deceived by
Malone as to the prUpriety OF paying a
debt, there is no honest Virginian who
can be deceived as to the difference be-
tween Democrat and a Republican.

When Malone went into the ReDub-

When Malone went into the Repub-
hcan camp with the expectation of
carrying with him any important part
of the white vote that had acted with
in the Readiuster campaigns. he made
a mistake that is often made by the
over confident corruptionist. The
white voters of Virginia, no matter
how furiously they opposed the Demo-
cratic party on questions OF State
finance have never had the remotest
idea nor intention of turning their
State Government over to the Repub-
lican party. The difficulty with Vir-
ginia is that it has never had to pass
through the throeS of reconstruction.
Its little experience with Malone, how
ever, has been a tolerably dear lesson,
and there is no danger that Republican,
ism will ever obtain foothold there
again, even by proxy.
Malone, however, as might be sup
posed, is not happy. He is frisking
around like stray flee, smelling of
every mans breeches-legs, and running
hither and yon like one distracted. He
has just issued circular letter marked
''private and confidential to num-
Der of those who acted with him in the
Readjuster campaigns. The circular,
which is quoted in the Norfolk Virgsn-
I'm, states that Malone has been de-
serted by Cameron, Riddleberger,
Sims, Mayo and Paul, and hence the
necessity of a closer alliance between
old members of the Readjuster party,
as otherwise, says Malone, 'we shall
lose the patronage which we have en-
joyed during the past several years, all
OF which would slip through our hands
into those of the Republicans.
Certainly this is sad. The "patron-
age" is the thing. 1t was for the pat
ronage that Malone appeared as a
Readiuster: it was for the patronage"
that he sold out to the Republicans in
the Senate; and it was for the patron
age" that he attempted to sell Virginia
out to the Republican S. Always the
patronage. This may be regarded
as the conclusion and end of Malone
ism in Virginia. Constitution.

DeIiberating Teachers.

CENTRALIA, ILL, August 29.-The Con-
ventiOn of the Southern Illinois Teachers
Association opened here this evening, under
favorable auspices. About fifty teachers,
together with many educational lights from
other sections of the State, were present.
The address of the evening was delivered by
Prof. Z. Z. Edwards. President of the or
ganizatiOn. A prominent remark made by
the gentleman was that if an army of ex-
teachers would be called together it would
depIete pupits, make vacant editorial chairs
and take the followers of the highest call
ings, including the President of the Nation,
from their nOsitiOns.

Syria.

Syria, by which | mean all the coun.
try bordering on the east of the Medi-
terranean, NAV not have the poSsibili-
ties of many other countries, but it has
by no means paid its debt to the world.
Its history has been one of retrogreS.
sion for several centuries, which is con-
trary to the universal law of progress.
Without believing in literal ''restitu-
tion," without expecting to see the
Jordan Valley flooded by means of a

when peace and prosperity will reign

terraneal Sea to the Persian Gulf.

Europe TO India and the Far East must
be shortened by railroad from Con-

POLITICAL ITEMS.

Tile Tribune, the leading Blaine
organ of the country, refuses outright
to pay its printers the prices which other
papers pay. How these Blaine leaders
do love the workingmeni
Tile slush that General Logan is
ladling out to the public is enough to
make angels weep. 1t will be mercy if
there is not another earthquake as re-
suit of it that will take us all out of an
outraged world together.-N. y Graphic
The Boston Herald has it on the
best authority that fifty of the leading
men of Portsmouth, n. H., who are
Republicans will vote for Cleveland. 1t
will not be strange if New Hampshlre's
ele ctoral vote goes to the Democratic
candidates.
One of the most remarkable Of
the many phenomena of this campaign
Is that every Republican sheet which
prints a half column of scandal about
one of the candidates prints in another
column paragraph deprecating per-
sonaI abuse.
The New York Star intimates
that the report that Tammany will
covertly aid Blaine or Butler, while os-
tensibly supporting Cleveland, is an
absurd, malicious falsehood. 1t looks
as though John Kelly's braves will fall
into line, after all. They have made up
their minds that they can not afford to
commit political Chicago

Again, it is pretty well under
stood that the Republicans will pay
Buffers campaign expenses, leaving so
much the less soap" for States like
Indiana. If there is anything Uncle
sam hates to do it is to ''put out" his
money. We are inclined to believe
that the bargain made through Bill
Chandler was to have Buffers expenses
paid with Republican money rather
than any promise of patronage from
Blaine to Butler. Butler has said he
would not trust Blaine, but he knows
the value of cash. Boston Herald.
The Republican party has for the
purposes of this campaign one hundred
thousand office holders to act the parts
of organizers and field officers in the
coming fight; also, a good supply OF
ammunition in the shape of political
