original New Orleans Minstrels performed
in the Opera House last evening to a de-

by the continual laughter The overture
was good, the songs and jokes new Mr..
Walter Wentworth gave the most wonder.

Dennis S. Doyle writes us to correct
statement made last week concerning the
manner of Richard Colhan's death in the
Continental colicry at Centrala He says
the supports did not give out, but that
''the collar was raised up three feet at one
end with block of timber to hold it there,
shove the car in again, expecting to have
the collar standing for good lift with one
end three feet off the bottom, but instead
they found the poor fellows head fast un-
der the collar, as the deceased persisted in
creeping under the raised end when he
might have stepped over or gone round it,
We know nothing of the facts and give
this statement as we got it.

PoIitica VS.. Rusine esr. .

Tho business mon OF Washington do not ap-
pear 10 have great reason to desire tho election
Of Mr.. Cleveland, II their position In politics
can bo at all judged by an order which was
given in the city yesterday. A furniture
dealer, whose business Is one OF the largest In
Washington, was asked by the agent OF o man
buy II ho should need the goods, aud he pre-
pared for oil contingencies by giving tho agent
alarge order for future delivery, with the pro-
viso that II should bo Cancelled II Cleveland
was elected. Said he: "You can deliver II
Blaine is elected, but II Cleveland Is elected
this town Will bo flooded with secondhand
goods, and we sha'n't need anything new for
two years."-NdhloHdl Republican.
A local builder has just erected nine
houses in this city. To plaster them would
cost 81 600. He offered plasterer one OF
the houses in payment for the entire job.
The plasterer accepted in the belief that
Blaine would be elected and property rise
in value. He has since gone wrong, and
yielding to a fear of Cleveland's election,
declined to accept the terms.
The builder has good sense knows Blaine
is tho coming man and gladly released tho
plasterer from the bargain and will retain
all his houses Tho builder must get his
houses plastered, however, and seeing q
chance for nice little profit from the plas-
terer's Democratic hopes, has asked him to
plaster the houses, and to DO paid 20 cents per
yard If Blaine is elected and 80 cents per
yard If Cleveland is elected. The plasterer,
however, has been reading some OF Blaine's
speeches since and has discovered the indi-
cations of the coming Republican cyclone
and declines this offer also.

The result of the school investigation
was what was to have been expected anl
what was predicted In these columns.
Wholesale charges of corruption, inc,m-
Ietency or favoritism, aimed iudi;crimi-
rately at leading citizens in official aud
commercial life, find too easy access to the
Iublic press and are too readily accepted
and believed.
The findings of the Commissioners, Of
course, banishes all that was scandalous and
derogatory TO the good name of the many
involved.
They reveal an irregalarity in tho school
management which the Commissioners say
will not be likely to be repeated. Tho in
vestigation has not suggested any means for
preventing such Irregularities. 1t is diff
cult to perceive that it has accomplished
anything except to quiet the reports to
which it itself gave rise.
How seriously the Commissioners have
considered the subject of abolishing the
School Board is not clearly defined by the
statements Of the members.
The advantage of such a step is not clear
to unpTejudiced observers.

Secretary hIcCuIIoch,

In selecting the Hon. Hugh McCulloch
for the head Of the Treasury Department,
the President recognized an ability pecu-
liarly fitted for the administration of the
National finances.
Secretary McCulloch was born in Kenne.
bee, Maine, and is about "a years old. He
studied for two years at Bowdoin College,
but had to leave that institution on account
of i'll health. He then went to Fort Wayne,
Ind, where he commenced The practice Of
law in 1888. He was, for number Of
years, connected with the State Bank o.
Indiana as cashier, director aud then Pres
dent. He was appointed Comptroller OF
the Currency in 1868. He also filled the
office of United States Treasurer.
He was appointed Secretary of the Treas.
ury in 1865 by President Lincoln, with
whom he was very intimate. He was sue
ceeded March IL, 1869, by Secretary Bout.

A wall as walls Horrid.

Tho editor of the true-blue Democratic
and Cleveland organ, the st. Louis POST
Dispatch, sees the hand-writi ng on the
wall and in his despair walls out the follow
ing
They had q miserable little tarlr bill, which
they knew could not be passed, which they
declared did not satisfy them, which they were
assured did not satisfy anybody else, which
could DO the country no more good than a
proclamation against tho potato bug, which
was disect challenge u q respectable and
conscientious minority OF their own party,
which was calculated to awaken needless dis.
trust and alarm among vast and valuable
business Interests, and on this hopeless fail
ure these would-b be leaders staked the fortunes
OF Democracy and the hopes OF the country.
The result was that, starting out with pre-
ponderating majority, the net result OF the
session was humiliating defeat In their own
house.
Thus the wall of despair comes up from
every side, and such passing in of pollt-
on-was never before seen in this or any
other country. But how in the world the
P.D. could ever make up its alleged mind
that there was any hope for Free Trade
success in this country is what puzzles The
CRITIC. The experience of 1880 should
have satisfied it that the American people
are for American labor all the time, and
that there was no chance whatever of their
changing, Above all, our st, Louis cotom-
porary should have remembered that the
Democratic party is a fool party, and that
II 1t could do anything to defeat itself II
would surely be done, 1t always comes
down stairs that way

WHEN the Democratic press of New York
city talks about tho Business Mems Cleve-

that the said Business Mon" are generally
importers, and their employees agents of
foreign houses, and their help Southern
traders, &C., who all have direct interest
in establishing free-trade regime in this
country. In other words, every one of them
has direct interest in breaking down the
industries of this country and building up
those of foreign lands.
