AFTER his defeat at Cincinnati In
1875 Mr., Blaine remarked: "A man
never has had but one chance for the
Presidency, aud I've had nine" Then,
after trying II again with the same re-
suit In 1880, he again said In substance
that II was no use looking for another
chance. But the chance came, never
theless, on the third trial, The preced.

MICHIGAN.
New Political Party.

The leaders of the various divisions
of the Prohibition army of Michigan
met in mass convention in Jackson on
the 9th and 9th inst. The result of the
meeting was the adoption of a platform
and the preparation of plan for work
which, it is believed, will have telling
effect upon the coming campaign.
Committees were appointed for the va
rious branches of the work, preparing
platform of principles etc. In a few
hours the committee to whom had been
entrusted the work of preparing the
declaration of principles, submitted a
lengthy ,report, the most important
section of which reads as follows: Re-
solved, that We hereby form a new po-
litical party with prohibition of the
liquor traffic as its foundation principle.
This party shall be called the Union
party of the State of Michigan, and
shall act in conjunction with the Ma
tional Prohibition Home Protection
party of the United States. The sub
ject of national currency revenue, civil
service. polygamy, Sabbath observance,
etc., were treated.

Here Are the Conditions Upon Which Eng

The secretary of foreign affairs, the chancel-
Tor of the eXchequer, the first lord of admiral
ty and the minister OF commerce have con
suited upon Egyptian affairs, and as result
OF the conference the following dispatches ave
been sent to the British agent In Egypt:
The first assured the khedive that England
would maintain her position in Egypt. The
second guaranteed the khedive that England
would undertake TO resist any attempt at the
invasion Of Lower Egypt by Ell Mahdi, but
stated that this guaranty meant no more than
that England would assume TO confne FL
Mahdi's operations to the Soudan, and must
not be construed as promising any assistance
in resisting those operations so long as they
were not making an actual attack on Egypt's
property. The third instructed the British
consul at Massowah to notify the king of
Abyssinia that England would not approve of
any military operations by Abyssinian troops
In the Soudan, and would resent any attack
upon Egyptian troops which might be operat-
ing In that region to maintain the authority Of
the kbedive as an attack upon England. Sir
Evelyn Barring, the British agent, informed the
khedive and his cabinet II England's inteu.

SAYS the Washington Critic: The
Apache chiefs made sensation at the
Treasury yesterday. When the chiefs
were enjoying the hospitality and the
cigars Of one of the most genial heads
of bureaus, the lady clerks focked into
the room to see the copper colored
braves. and were gazing in curiosity at
the Indians, VIXEN one of the sober
chiefs, after contemplating the bevy
of blushing maldens, turned to the head
of the bureau and confdentially and
seriously, but very audibly, remarked:
Me give twenty-five ponies for one OF
your squaws." The remark carried
CONSERVATION into the ranks of the
Treasury girls. but they are not so mad
about it as if the old fellow had offered
fewer ponies.

was unloading logs from sleigh near
the mill, was struck on the head by
falling timbers, causing conclusion of

fatal. Three others, Alphonse Legault,
William Powers and Michael Moran,
were seriously though not fatally in

33 years of age, and leaves wife

was tubular skis, with 4S tubes. 1t

of the explosion is not definitely known,

the boiler was frozen up, and the water
therefore became low before being
noticed, and when once thawed out the
cold water rushed in, causing the ex-
plosion.

W. MArTIEU WILLIAMS says that he

among 800 pigs, which had been given
barrel of spoiled elderberry wine all
at once with their swill. Their be-

all the usual manifestations of jolly
good-fellowship, including that advance
ed stage where a group were rolling
over each oother and grunting affec-
tionately in tones that were distinctly
expressive of swearing good-fellowship
