JOHN MCCULLOUGH.
The Once Great Actor Almost Frustrated,
Both Physically and Mentally.

CHICAGO Sept 20. John McCullough's ap-
pearance in aThe Gladiator" at McVickers to-
night created most painful impression. He
was manifestly unable to cope with the require
ments of the part, and was vigorously Kissed in
the early scenes, but later reaction set in
when the cause was seen to be physical weak
ness, and he was called before the curtain at the
close of the play. The Inter Ocean tomorrow
will say:
Quickly detecting in the initial scenes how evasive
of his mental grasp the lines of his part Mr. Nc
Cullough permitted the audience to intensity the
nervous strain under which he suffered and from for
getfuness he soon passed to bewilderment; his
ner became purposeless his capabilities for action
were entirely suspended and he moved waver-
ingly lstlessly helplessly through the successive
scenes, his vain endeavor to keep his lines
in mind becoming more and more painful, and his
fitness for the work more and more apparent He
wandered about the stage without purpose or anima

BROTHER FRANK EXILED.
Pardoned Out Of Prison, He Is Punished by
His Superior.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept 29-The trial Of
Brother Frank, president of St Joseph's College,
for assaulting little girls, his conviction and
sentence for a long term in the State prison. will
be remembered. Brother Franks case was in
vestigated by Governor Cleveland, and a pardon
followed This cleared the priest before the
law but not before the Christian brotherhood.
News was received here for the first time to-day
that he had been exiled to the island Of
Mauritius, that he is there now, engaged as a
school-teacher and that he is now called Brother
Francis Joseph. He was forced to sail from
New York on June %, going to London and
Alexandria. He received notice of his exile while
stopping on the Boland farm near Peekskill, and
had only few hours in which to reach the ship
Brother Severian Of the De La Sale Institute,
New York, was the bearer of the sentence from
Brother Patrick the head Of the orderin France
They were at breakfast at s o'clock, when
Brother Frank was handed his passage ticket
and letter from Brother Patrick, saying that he
must sail at 2 o'clock. The news was so sudden
that Brother Frank could hardly speak Clap
ping his hands together, he said; Oh my
God, must go without even seeing my poor
brotherP He cried bitterly and asked the reason
why he was not given days notice, at least
Brother Seyerian told him the news came the
night before, and they did not wish to wake him.
Brother Frank finally said: II must learn to
live humble, and if this be my Masters wish /
am ready to gon He was granted permission to
send kilograms to his brother and to friend in
Paterson, N. j., requesting both to meet him at
the wharf Neither Of them responded.

MIR. BLAINE is the guest of Mrs. Garfield
in Cleveland, to-day. The visitation to the
tomb of the martyred President will be made
in the company of the widow, and nothing
will be left undone to insure pathetic and
melodramatic performance. There is but one
man in the United States who would resort to
such methods as this to fire the party heart
and draw out few extra votes His name is
James g. Blaine.
This is from the New York World Of Sun
day. No one but an unmanly brute could pen
or print such an insult to the widow of man
murdered because he was Republican Presi-
dent If Mr.. Blaine's visit to the tomb of
General Garfield, in company with Mrs. Gar
field, was to have been t'melodramatic per-
formance,' then the widow was party to the
scheme, and dishonored her womanhood and
her husbands memory at the same time. This
is the foul insult heaped upon Mrs. Garfield,
in her widowhood and great sorrow, by the
Democratic press in the interest Of notorious

outrage of ladies who are or may be
compelled to use the cars. On the Pennsyl-

when told they were too old to run the risk Of

least they take no steps to reform the abuses

A DIAGNOSIS AS "a.

"a very prominent physician" of Boston
name not given as a guarantee of good faith
says that Blaine is a sufferer from Bright's
disease, sif am any judge Passing over
the point as to the very prominent physicians
qualifications as a judge Of such matters the
reader is informed that Boston special to the
Chicago Times says there can be no doubt Of
the trustworthiness Of the diagnosis. THIS
physician-this very prominent physician
solemnly asserts that he saw Blaine, while
riding on the cars, lay his head on the
seat in front, or rest it on his
hand" We have noticed this popularity
in people afflicted with Brights disease. Just
as soon as you see man lay his head on a
car-seat in front of him, you can bet that he
has Brights disease; while if he rest his head
on his hand he is goner for fact, for if he
has not Brights disease at the time, that will
induce it. No man can afford to lay his head
In the positions named he may, with inn
punity, put his feet on the mantel and his
head in the coal-hod, or he may even curl up
on car-seat and let his head hang
over in the aisle; but the instant
he lays it on the seat in front
or on his hand he is dead man. There is no
hope for him. The insidious approach Of
Bright's disease is very deceptive. A man, as
in Mr. Blaine's case, may travel all over the
country, stay up all night, make score or
more Of speeches, and shake hands with two
or three thousand people day, and appar-
emily get fat on it, and tire out those who try
to keep up with him; but, under it all, tho
disease is getting in its fell work. Mr.. Blaine
will doubtless oblige many Democratic admir-
ers by not leaning his head upon his hand.

Col. ISAAC P. GRAY cannot escape his
Know-nothing record. An open letter from
G. B. Northrop, Of New Madison, O., pub
lished elsewhere, should arrest the attention
of the Democratic candidate for Governor.
Colonel Gray says that in 1856 he was in In
diana making speeches for Fremont. Very
probable; but that does not interfere with him
having been Knownothing notwithstand-
ing this, prior to that time. BY his effort to
mislead and avoid, Col Gray has confessed
the truth Of the charge and shown himself to
be INSCRIPTIONS Itwould have been much
better for him to have told the truth frankly.

FATAL RAILWAY COLLISION.
Two Men Instantly Killed and Several 9th
ers MOrtaIly Injured.


WHEELING, w. Va, Sept 49, This afternoon
passenger and express train No. 4, from Balti-
more for Chicago, and local freight going east
collided one mile west Of Pennington, sixty five
miles east Of this city. Both trains were going
at full speed Six freight cars and the mail car
of the passenger train were demolished and two
men killed and several badly injured. The
killed are.
Thomas Turley, of Piedmont W. Va, con-
ductor Of the freight who was riding on the en-
CINE, and Thomas O'Donnell, Of Martinsburg
fireman on the passenger train.
Geo. Leonard, engineer, of Wheeling was fa-
tally hurt
John Smith, engineer, of Wheeling was badly
hurt, and his eyes filled with cement from the
wrecked cars, which was thrown in cloud for
many feet in all directions by the shock of the
collision. He will probably lose his eyesight.
James Adams, mail agent, was badly bruised
and cut about the head and shoulders.
James Sapp, chief clerk of the mail car, was
severely injured in various parts Of his body.
d. w, Boyd, fireman, of Wheeling, was possi-
bly, fatally hurt.
The scene at the wreck is heart-rending. The
suffering train hands were buried beneath the
debris and their shrieks we're pitiful The pas
sengers all escaped uninjured, and did all they
could to rescue the endangered train hands The
accident was caused by a misund erstanding of
orders by the engineer of the freight. Turkeys
body was taken to Piedmont and ODonnellS
mangled remains to Martinsburg.

THE sensitive Democratic press is shocked
because Mr.. Dudley is enjoying his vacation
in his own way, which happens to be that Of
taking hand in political work in Ohio The
conclusion which the logical New York Post
draws from the scandalous circumstance is that
"His [Dudley,s] discreditable conduct is
only a fresh illustration Of the absurdity Of
looking upon Mr.. Blaine as in any sense a
friend of ciyil-service reform. He has al
ways been its enemy and always will be. !"
The Post anticipates. Mr.. Blaine is not
Mr.. Dudley's superior officer at the present
time. He could order the Commissioner
home, perhaps, but it would be speaking like
one without authority, after the manner Of

might see fit not to obey.

THE BLAINE LIBEL SUIT.

1t VIII Be Vigorously Pushed for the Honor
of Mr. Blaine's Family.
Leander Richardson, in Detroit Times.
Mr.. Blaine does not seem to be conspicuously
worried by the varions assaults that are being
directed against him from different quarters.
took breakfast with him the other morning at
the Fifthavenue Hotel, and, although the con-
versation, as a general thing sought other than
political channels, it was brisk and unconcerned,
and showed that the wonderfully active mind Of
the Republican candidate was by no means COM
pletely absorbed by the campaign. | asked Mr..
Blaine what he thought would be the result of
the new batch of Mulligan letters, and he smil-
ingly replied that they gave added elements of
repose to the campaign. The only effect they
had produced so far as he could see was to con
vey the very general conviction that he told the
exact truth about the one letter which he had
been for years charged with suppressing.
1.-THE fresh weapon said Mr.. Blaine con-
tentedly, seems to have acted as sort
Of boomerang. Which reminds me Of
the old story of the Irishman who fred heavily.
charged musket at hawk that was sailing about
over head. He missed the hawk, but the recoil
of the gun threw him to the ground. Shaking
his fist at the bird he shouted, Faith, If yez had
been on my end Of the gun, ye'd have had youi
'sWhat about the Indianapolis libel suitr
asked ssThere seems to be some belief that you
mean to let it go by the board"
docs therep asked Mr.. Blaine. well such
belief is quite as unfounded as the libel ITSELF
shall push the case just as vigorously as
should if were private citizen who had been
similarly outraged. 1t seems to me that when
the honor of ones family is thus assaulted, 1t is
quite as necessary to resent the blow as though
one were not political candidate. At all events
propose to seek such redress as the law allows,
and that is little enough If the people who
have begun this warfare are not prepared to
make serious business of il, SO much the worse
for them. believe l have the sympathy 81
every honest man and woman in the community
to establish precedent which may in the future
curtail the personal defamation of political cam
paigns.

FREE-TRADE journals cite the fact that
there is fearful depression in wooden manu-
facture to prove that there is an overproduc-
ton, and the business is overdone under the
stimulus Of protection This may be believed
where it is not known that during the year
1883 no less than 80, 200, 600 yards of wooden
goods were imported into this country, to say
nothing Of immense quantities Of raw wool.
The 'overproduction" could be immeasurably
increased by lowering the tariff, SO that 1884,
OOO, O00. yards Of wooden stuff could be annu-
ally imported. That is the Democratic idea.

THERE is little sensitiveness in certain
quarters about preaching politics when a
minister Of the gospel hits hard at current
sin, OF tells the truth about public man now
living. A preacher may draw all manner Of
lessons from David and the eve lamb, but if
healludes to eve lamb slaughtered by a public
man now in the flesh, ills highly improper A
similar experience came to Rev. Francis Eden,
in Never Too Late to Mend Yet what the
world needs is pulpit and a press not afraid
to cry out against wickedness in high places
to-day, as well as against that which prevailed
when David reignsd over Israel.

The statement Of the brother-in-law of
Maria Halpin, published in this issue Of the
Journal, will attract wide attention. It affrms
the fact that Grover Cleveland seduced that
unhappy woman under solemn promise Of
marriage then threw her off upon the world,
paying her $500, and put their son into an
orphans home, to be out Of his way. All
this at the age Of forty-two. This is the rec
ord of the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent. This is the kind of man for whom
fathers, and husbands, and brothers, and sons
are asked to vote. This is the sort of man
for whose election to the presidency of the
United States the mouths Of Christian min
listers must be dumb. Shame!
