Can Cleveland Win where Greeley

For the second time since the war, con-

tormlDed to rebukc tho managers OF their

demanding Democratic votes for n man who

CLEvELAND's election, which would give
immense encouragement to the preachers OF

longer shut their eyes to tho bearing Of this
contest on their own hopes and homes; be-
cause they are too shrewd to further policy

The indianapolis Journal of Friday,
August go, says: George Lewis, whose
home is at Germantown, Pa, where he is
engaged in business, was found wandering
about the streets yesterday in wretchod
condition from excessive drinking, and was
sent to the city hospital by Turnkey Tafe.
Lewis recently lost several thousand dollars
specializing in Chicago, and he has since
been drinking heavily. Two weeks ago he
was arrested and locked up in the station
house for drunkenness. After paying his
fine he was released, and, as nothing was
afterward seen of him for several days, It
was supposed by the police that he had
left the city, until yesterday afternoon,
when Turnkey Taffe found him in the
vicinity Of the police station in condition
bordering on delirium tremens. In his
possession was found 81 800 in bonds, which
the police have taken charge of until his re-
covery. 1t is thought that his friends know
nothing of his whereabouts"
