WHAT THE SUN THOUGHT OF BEN
BUTLER THEN.
F,.op. N. 7. Sun, juno 26, 1883.


Hated by some, contemned by many
and distrusted by all, this bad man
with his crooked ways, foul methods,
distorted mind and wicked heart glo-
ries in these moral deformities, faunts
them constantly before the public eye
and traffics in them as political mer-
chandise. The notoriety which de-
cency shrinks from as degradation
he seeks at any sacrifice. He treats
the reproach which follows such exhi-
bitons as so much capital added to
the stock of ill-fame that had already
made his name odiously conspicuous
in and out of Congress. Rejoicing in
his own shame and coming money
from open venality, discarding any
pretense of principle, bound by no ties
of honor, scoffing at religion, making
politics trade, despotic when clothed
with authority, cowardly by nature,
mercenary from habit, and destitute
of one ennobling quality for many at
tributes to lift him up above these
wretched characteristics, he is to-day
the leading candidate for the highest
honor in enlightened and moral Mas
sachus etts.

A Contrast That Tells.

On Sunday the Boston Hsrlad
printed an alleged libelous attack on
Rev. Mr.. Ball, the Buffalo clergyman
who figures so largely in the Clevs-
land scandal, and the other day Mr..
Ball brought suit against the paper.
Up to date Mr.. Cleveland has not in
stituted a libel against anybody.

The fact. that Gen. Logan has rent
ed house in Washington is evidence
that he expects to be elected Vice
President. He may come out like
George Francis Train, who sent his
wife from Bermuda to Boston that the
child to be born might thus be made
eligible to the Presidency of the Unit
ed States. But it was a girl.

two tramps, who had woman with
them, and wanted child to beg.
Mr.. Lachmuller offered large rewards
and employed every available means
to recover his child, travelling all over
Europe, and several times in this
country, advertising his loss but in
vain"
"Well, one day I received letter
from Chester, Ill, describing the
tramps who had been brutal in their
treatment of a child supposed to be
Charley, and to disguise him had
thrown acids into his face, badly dis
figuring him, dyed his hair, and scar
red his poor little body. My brother
James went on at once, and saw that
it was not our lost lamb, but the pub
licity given the case by the papers
reached Mr.. Lachmuller, and on the
bare supposition of its being his son,
he came on and found indeed that it
was his child.
strangely enough, through the vii
famous treatment he had been sub
jected to he had made the boy forget
even his name and the place where he
came from, he recognized his father
with scream ofjoy. There has also
been another class of cases in which,
though the proper parents could not
be found, the children have been taken
away from the wretches who had them
in charge and been properly taken
care of by the authorities"
GLOW do you account for this large
number of stray children Y
"a great many of them never can
be accounted for. Some have left
their homes Of their own accord, many
are illegitimate, and quite a number
belong to families in which domestic
unhappiness has prompted either the
father or mother to take them away
and keep them in concealment. There
are also instances where the children
have been purposely put on trains and
deserted, of where they have run away
from guardians glad to get rid of them
Children are not unfrequently found
among Italian or gypsy bands who
cannot be accounted for.
yes" continued Mr.. Ross, in reply
to question, "dozens of children have
looked me in the face and said then
name was Charley Ross. In fact, the
name has becoms the synonym OF q
lost child, and is frequently given tc
childred in poorhouses and asylums
Hardly a week passes without lettel
or a clue of some sort being sent to m,
now, and of course the claimants are
frequent. Why, fortnight ago I
little tramp calling himself Charley
Ross looked me right in tn e eye and
said ho remsHbered my singing him

life"
"Do you believe your son is living
now?"

more than you do; but until | kno,
that he is dead his mother and shall
watch for his coming" continued Mr.
Ross with emotion.

A Con firmed Fire Bug.

EAST NASHVILLE, Tenn, August To-
A dozen fires, some of them serious, have
occurred in East Nashville, Tenn, in the
last few weeks. The last was the burn
ing of the Nashville Cooperage Company's
works on Thursday night, entailing loss
of 100000 j. McBrooks, arrested yes
terday on another charge, has confessed
to being the author of all the fires, claim
ing that he was irresistibly impelled by
the love of witnessing large cOnfagra-
tons. Notebooks burned house in
Knoxville thirteen years ago, for which he
served ten years in the Penitentiary. He
confesses that the night he was released
he started two fires in Nashville, and it is
almost certain that he originated two
fires which occurred in the Penitentiary
shops during his confinement, the loss at
the least being between 100000 and
100000. He started another fire here
last night beside the one mentioned
above

Ten Acres of Flame.

VlNcENNEs, md, August l6,--Late
last night fire broke out in the River
side Lumber Mills of Wiley Tlndolph,
and at last accounts ten acres of lumber
were ablaze. The fire is no doubt of in
cendiary origin, Is blazes were discoy-
cred simultaneously in the mill, stable,
and lumber piles. Some boys put out the
blazes in the mill, but the Stable was de-
stroyed, burning up ten horses and mules,
about million feet of lumber have been
burned, and as the fire is beyond control,
another million is doomed. Mr.. Tindolph
says he is fully covered by insurance.
The lumber is worth 100000 Fire was
discovered at this same place one even
ing last week, but by informstlon was sup
pressed. Though it is out of the city
limits, the department is on hand, and
will probably save the mill. This is the
third time the Riverside Mills have been
destroyed within five years by incenda'
rieS.

Through q Treatle.

WILLIAMspoRr Pa, August IA
freight train of the Philadelphia & Read
ing Railroad was crossing trestle five
hundred feet IN length, when car con-
tanning coal jumped the track, broke the
trestle and fell TO the bottom, dragging
down thirteen other cars. On the train
were John Reichelderfer, aged forty
years, conductor, and James McCarty,
aged twenty years, brakeman. Both were
carried down. The conductor was struck
by piece of 'timber, knocked insensible
and thrown into the creek. His injuries
consist of three ribs and one leg broken
with other injuries, which makes his re-
covery doubtful. McCarty attempted to
Jump, but was caught and horribly
crushed.

sumed, including the immense Wash

a million dollars.
Twenty-Five buildings were consumed,

A Resort to Internal Machines to WI
the Fight for Whisky.
BURLINGTON, IA, August lev. Z.
Blake has been prominent in the prosecu-
ton Of saloon-keepers since the prohibit
tory law went into effect At two O'Clock
yesterday morning his family were awak-
ened by loud explosion and bright
flash as of lightning. The explosion was
that of an Internal machine. To the fact
that it was too ignorantly or too hastily
prepared is due Mr.. Blake's safety. 1t
was Of a lap-welded iron-boiler tube,
about two and half feet long and two
and half inches in diameter, hammered
over and closed at one end. This was
partly filled with giant powder and then
an oil cloth cartridge about one inch in
diameter and ten inches long was insert
ed, filled with nitro-gl ycerne or dyna-
mite. By the side of this was an ordi-
nary blasting fuse, most of which was
burned. Whether the bomb was improp-
erly packed or whether the explosion
was premature, only burning the powder
at the top Is uncertain. But the deadly
materials remaining leave no doubts as
| to the object Of the person who
manufactured the machine. The COM
position of the explosion consisted of
sawdust and cotton saturated with crys-
ta's OF inter, which is accepted as evil
dence that nitro-glycerlne formed the
base OF the compound, Mr.. Blake says
so far as he knows he has not personal
enemy in the world, and that in these
late prosecutions IN which he has been
engaged every saioon-keeper has treated
him personally with uniform kindness
and respect and he did not believe any
one had any design upon his life or
| property.
