'fIn all the political campaigns we have ever

| One of the most remarkable instances Of
the transmission of power by electricity is
| that presented by the electric railroad IN one
of the main crosscuts of the Opel colliery,
| Saxony. The crosscut is z, ,362 feet long, and
| is the outlet for the coal mined In the vein,
| the quantity delivered to it being six hun
dred cars per day of sixteen hours, each car
weighing, when loaded, 1854 pounds. A
| train of fifteen cars is moved at a speed of
from seven to ten feet a second, the steam
engine at the mouth of the shaft making
from 225 to $50 revolutions during the run,
| lasting from three and oneEhalf to four and
| one-half minutes through the crosscut
When doing this amount of work, the steam
| engine delivered 11.2 horse power; or, as
| suming the friction of the engines gearing
| to have oecasioned a loss of twenty-five per
cent, the power actually transmitted by the
electric current to the locomotive was 5.22
horse power, or 1876 per cent. An estimate
| of the cost shows that there are probably
| many cases in which the transmission of
power by electricity would pay well.
There are two or three Congressional dis
tricts in the eastern part of Massachusetts, in
which the situation of affairs is interesting.
The Boston correspondent of the Hartford
Courant thus sets it forth: The Democrats
are certain of carrying only one district at tne
coming election. The others were supposed
to be all Republican when the apportionment
was made Two of the latter, however, (the
9th and 7th), gave Butler majority last fall,
and both may be hard to carry this year.
The 18th is pretty strongly Democratic dis
trict on a Butler basis, though its present
representative is a Republican. Mr.. E.
Moody Boynton, the Greenbacker, was the
means of dividing the opposition vote, and
letting in Republican two years ago. Mr..
Boynton was then Butler man. He thinks
Butler has been false to the Greenback party,
and therefore he left Butler last year. Now
Mr. Boynton is for Blaine. His abandonment
of Butler lost him Boynton) nearly all his
votes and influence, and he will probably
have little support if he runs again; but the
opposition majority in this district is largely
made up of Butler Republicans, and if they
go back to the party ticket generally, as well
as to Mr. Blaine, the Republicans may save
their Congressman there. It does not seem
to be improbable.

OPPOSED TO CLEVELAND.

Governor Cleveland and his friends find it
hard work to persuade that important being
the Workingman that his (the Workingman's)
interests have been carefully looked after by
the Democratic nominee for the Presidency.
The Workingman thinks he knows better,
and the indications are that he will prove
very troublesome to the managers of Cleve-
lands campaign. Hisopposition has already
taken shape in several places.
In Washington meeting of representative
men of the different labor organizations of
the capital has been held and resolutions
adopted setting forth the fact that as gov
ernor of New York Cleveland has "vetoed
all bills passed in the interest of the common
people of the State" and calling upon the
workingmen and their friends to boycott
him at the polls The Cleveland (Ohio)
Penny Press, an independent Democratic
Workingmen's paper, which has great infu-
ence with the labor vote of northern Ohio,
refers to Cleve1and's nomination as placing
Ohio's electoral vote Gin Blaine's pocket"
Interviews with thirty of the leading Irish
men of Cleveland indicate that the Irish vote
of the city will be largely given to Blaine.
John F. Henry, great wholesale druggist
in New York city, and president of the
National Anti-Monopoly league, has given
the opinion that '' the laboring men and anti
monopolists will under no circumstances
support Grover Cleveland" Mr.. Henry
brings the following charges against him:
He accepted the Democratic nomination for
governor two years ago on one OF the strong
est anti-monopoly platforms ever adopted by
a State convention; he promised the anti
monopolists that he would stand on that
platform, if elected, in good faith, and would
stand by the canals and in all ways carry out
the principles enunciated by the convention;
but he has failed to keep his word. He ap-
pointed a railroad man superintendent of
canals and named two men who are in sym
pathy with railroad corporations for the
board of railroad commissioners. He vetoed
the Elevated railroad fve-cent fare bill, and
the bill to reduce the hours of labor of con-
ductors and drivers. In other ways he has
violated his pledges. He has not been true
to the Democrats, to the antimonopolists or
to the laboring men, and he violated long-es-
tablished Democratic principles by favoring
the one-man power in New York and
Brooklyn.
Mr.. O'Connell, one of the best known
members of the Knights of Labor, says that
he thinks there will be united action on the
part of all workingmen against Cleveland.
Cleveland, he says, is a monopolist. Butler
cannot support him because he promised
when he accepted the Greenback nomination
he would not uphold the Chicago nominee if |
a monopolist was selected. The workingmen
cannot vote for Cleveland because he was !
nominated by representation of capital.
And so forth and SO on. How Cleveland
can be elected if the labor organizations are
against him is a problem which will stagger |

when No. stepped behind convention
freight car. He was as ragged and dirty as
the average of his class. His hat had proba-
bly, done duty on the top of stick in some
cornfeld. Pulling from beneath his coat a
piece of cardboard that had railway adver-
tisement on one side, and that was white on
the other he slashed its corners off with an
old pocket knife and cut scallop in one end.
A piece of white paper came from one of his
pockets The cardboard, white side out, was
slipped under his dirty vest, the scallop just
fitting his neck. The piece of paper was
deftly folded, and the corners clipped and
placed around his greasy neck. Two pins
fastened the paper to the cardboard. Two
more fixed the cardboard firmly under the
vest. Just then the through train came in.
He was bareheaded. His shirt front was
glossy white His collar was the cleanest
behind. He looked nearly as respectable as
any of the passengers with whom he rushed
for the lunch room. At the counter his
ragged pantaloons and clay covered shoes
could not be seen by the walters. EHere,

Poker is being played so largely in
society thai a man must be mighty
careful how he sits into n game. Not
long ago gentleman who had played
some years ago was at II card party at
the home of friend, and he was in
ylted to sit with a couple Of dudes and
couple of dudesses, and, being an
old bachelor, he thought lie would
show them that, though he was no
dude, he could play poker. The first
hand he got three ten-srots, and cir.
drew ono card and bet 81. He raised
her 50, thinking she might have two
pairs, when she came back at him
with $40, and he laid down his three
teu.spots, thinking she had filed. As
she raked in the money, she laid down
her hand, and il was bob tail flush,
as though she had fours, and there
was not movement of n muscle of
her face, though she breathed hard,
and there was sealskin cloak CLEAN
in heF eye that paralyzed him. On
the other hand she looked as though.
she had lost every friend she had, and
seemed to be sick with ennui, and her
whole face, ms she simply put up a
chip, seemed TO be pleading with him
to please not bet too high, rs she was
only poor orphan; but he bet $40,
just to show her that he knew his bust
ness, and to get his money. Instead
of laying down her hand she languidly
threw down $50 and said she would
raise him 500, just to keep up the
interest, and thinking of her bob.tall
flush that she had bluffed with before,
he put up the money, and she threw
down four jacks as innocently as a
baby, and he had only nine-spot full,
and she, as she raked in the money,
laughed so sweetly that the bachelor
said he didn't care for the money. The
game of draw poker is fashionable,
and it is dangerous, unless man
knows enough to cut the cards.-Bur-
ltngton Ha,cheys.

have a decided leaning for paper of

yellow, chrome, straw, olive green,
perfectly plain and smooth. This
covers the body of the room, while
borders OF various widths run around
it, few feet from the floor, with

The discovery of beautiful stone
capable of taking high polish aud in
large quantities proves to be valuable
find. The stone found by Don Jose
Moraga near San Borxas, is not true
onyx, but the first shipment of it made
to the East went under the name of
Mexican onyx. 1t is not, however, a
form of silica, but hasa lime basis and
allied to gypsum, but more valuable.
1t comedies in all particulars to
aragonite and is superior stone TO
alabaster, being more beautiful and
harder. As it is not flint or quartz,
il can be worked much easier and is
serviceable for table tops, mantles and
ornamental work generally This
classification of the rock, while it does
away, with the agate theory and the

had. places it in a legitimate CONNER

For the sad old earth must borrow Its mirib,
But has trouble enough OF it's own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;

The echors bound to joyful sound
But are slow to voice your care
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grleye, and they turn and 90;
They want full measure Of all your pleasure
But they do not heed your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad. and you lose them ALL
