honor by voting against the presi-

in the shape of pure oxygen. Accord

IT may be sufficient for the Express
that because "the most talented men

That is argument for truth. 1t is
toy politics. Mere boyishness, but on
a par with the ridiculous weakness
generally of the Express. This "fol-

fairs in life. The people will always act
with discrimination, judgment and
justice if they are Informed, or if they
pause long enough to inform them
selves. To test matters on this head
let any one ask the first five hundred
men supporting Ireland, that he may
meet, and the chances are that not one
in ten can give five intelligent reasons
why he does so. There IS not one in
thousand who can defend him from,
or answer the charges which the
STATESMAN has already mSde. In fact
there is not one. These are. un-
answerable, and were they spread be-
fore the people broadly between now
and the sitting of the Houston con
vention, would result in his defeat, no
matter had every delegate to that body
been instructed to support him to the
last.

Mr.. j. F, Dezendort. Of Virginia, ex.
planning that a certain photographic
circular addressed to State committees
which was sent to Mr.. DezeDdorf few
days ago, was so sent by mistake of a
clerk, and was not intended as a recog-
milton of the Dezendorf convention as
the regular republican organization in
Virginia. In conclusion Senator Sabin
SAYS:
"While l will not assume TO speak

say, in my judgment, the national re-

one convention ia Virginia as respon-
sive to It's call, namely, the convention

Ouappolle, the nearest mounted POI
lice barracks to BattlefOtd, are very
alarming. They say that 2 900 blood
thirsty redskins marched into town
and threatened to burn 1t up and
massacre the inhabitants. They are
all nearly starved, not having receiv
ed sufficient food from the Dominion
Government to keep body and soul
together. During the day the tele-
graphic circuit stopped, and the sup
position is that the Indians have muir
dered the operator and burned the

shortly after Yellow Calf had trouble
with Colonel Hercbm err a delegation
from his band started westward to
visit the different Indian camps. They
pretended they were going to look
for fresh hunting grounds, but it was
subseq uently learned that their OBJ
ject was to arrange for a big Indian
outbreak. On March Oath they bad
reached Blackfoot Crossing, and were
going on to have an interview with the
Blackfeet. The general opinion here
is that these emissarles have stirred
up general commotion among the
Indians, who have been balfSstaryed
all winter, and that they have moved
up in strength to Battleford in order,
if possible, to awe the Indian Depart
ment into treating them more liberal
" in the matter of rations. Further
news from Battleford is looked for
with great anxiety. Great indigna-
ton is expressed at the Governments

A Gypsy Queens Funeral.

DAYTON, O., April l5.-Jannie
Jeffers, Queen of the Gipsies in the
United States, died at Greenfield
Tenn, on March 10, and was buried
here to-day. Gipsies are eDcamped
about to the number OF about 1900,
travelling by wagon from all point,
Of the country. The Queen was EN-,
b lined and laid out in Nashville
Tenn, Immediately upon her death
and was brought to this city for intel
ment 10 Woodland Cemetery, where
are buried the former Queen and King
Of the Gipsies. The dead Queen re-
p sed in handsome casket made OIL
the finest wood, lined with the fines
silks and satins and mounted with
gold and Jewels. The plot belonging
to the gipsies is marked by fine
monument Of granite, shipped here
from q reece. The funeral procession
which was composed entirely Of gip-
sizes, formed in the northern section
of the city and marched to the south
ern extremity. where the cemetery is
situated. AT the grave ropes were
stretched around it, leaving an en-
closure large enough for the mourners
to stand in. The crowd was very
large and urged up against this rope.
Roys aud men sat on tombstones and
filled trees and every place that would
afford an opportunity of seeing what
was going on. The funeral services
were conducted by one Of the leading
pastors of the city. The grave Was
sunk about ten feet. At the bottom
was box made of stone slabs, and in
this box the coffin WI as laid by the
side of a daughter OF the deceased
woman.
There were slihed sobs as the
mourners marched about the grave,
and several broke out 10 loud cries as
the coffin was lowered.
At the conclusion of the clergys
mans remarks the choir belonging to
the officiating clcrgyman's church
sang the "Sweet Bye and Bye" and
the services closed. The most effect
ing scene was when the great stone
was about to be lifted, by means OF a
derrick close at hand, and the stone
box containing the coffiOs closed. The
sons aud daughters Of the Queen
down TO the coffin to take
their last farewell. Their sobs and
cries filed the air, aud were echoed
by the mourners that stood on the
brink Of the grave. The sons and
daughters threw themselves PROSTATE
on the coffius, kissing the hard wood,
aud it was only with great difficulty
tina. they were prevailed on to come
out of the grave. The stone lid W as
then put upon into position, and the
dirt thrown upon it. A monument
will be erected over the grave.

Western Lunatic Asylum.
OVER THE DAY OF RESTORATION,
RETRENCHMEET, AND REFORM.
STAUNToN, April l6, 1884.

STAUNToN, April 16, 1884.
Yesterday was a day of intense ex-
element here. About 4 O'Clock the
telegraph announced that DR.. A. M.
Fauntleroy had been restored TO bis
old position at the Western LunaliC
Asylum as IFS superintendent. An
hour and half elapsed before anything
more was heard; then came the gratifyO
ing news that Drs. William Hamilton
and Edward T.. Fisher had been elected
tc resume their duties with DR.. Faun-
teroy; and later the announcement was
made that DR.. J. H. Wer, Of Rock
bridge, had been elected 10 the third
assistants place. and Mr.. Timberlake,
Of frederick, made steward. Of course
there were many disappointed sppll
cants for the two last-named positions.
they beirg the only two positions Of
much importance in the corps OF officers
of the asylum that the old Democratic
eff Gals were not applicants for re-elec.
ton. But when the news circulated
that the day OF restoration bad come,
and that two such excellent new men
had been selected, there was great joy
with our people, and even the unluckv
candidates seemed to share 10 the
general feeling Of satisfaction.
The Board went TO work on the SAL
airy business. and put The salary of the
Superinte ndent 10 where it was when
The Readjusters turned him out-viz.,
to 3,OO0-thus saving $500 on that. The
salary OF the steward was made 81, 900
"a cut off of $500 from the Coalition
administration; and the salary of the
clerk Of the asylum was cut down from
81, 900 TO $500, making another savin .
OF $500. There were other changes
made in the pay of subordinates, which
added to those already mentioned, will
make an aggregate OF nearly 90 900
saved 10 the asylum per annum by the
action of the new Board. All the old
officers who were in subordinate posi-
tons formerly held by them, and 10
few days everything will be in statu
quo ante bellum.
