business perplexities, fell in mid-career

Not long since the city Of Cleveland, Ohio

hausted life's vital functions, by the too de-
voted, but successful strife for accumulation
became crazed, and went to suicides graves.
This is emphatically fast-age, and many

Of the world, plunge into the

have, and who are violating life's laws Of the
hazards of fast life whether devoted to de-
bauchery, luxurious living, or the deadly car

VIII 1RTRUR WITRpRAWe

An effort is on foot to cause Arthur to
withdraw his name from the list of Presiden-
tial candidates. The safety and salvation of
the Republican party, is the alleged basis Of
the effort to cause him to Withdraw. Elk
Gov. Fosters allegation in late interview,
that Arthur cannot by any possibility carry
Ohio is used to induce Arthur to withdraw,
and the doubt ofhis being able to carry New
York, is used as another factor in the at
tempt to cause him to step aside. a failure
to carry Ohio and New York, of course in
sures defeat, and causes not only the present
but the final overthrow, disruption and de-
struction of the Republican party.
Arthur's attempt to secure the New York
delegation, or majority of it, to Chicago, re-
inkindles the stalwart and half-breed fires,
the spirit of faction is again growing bitter
and relentless, and experienced Republican
politicians not only fear, but predict the loss
of the state, if Arthur persists III keeping in
the field. 1t is not likely that Arthur can be
coaxed or driven off. His persistence will
not meet success, but will serve to drive an
other nail in the coffin of Republicanism.
To such an extent has this bitter spirit OF
faction been aroused by Arthur's efforts for
nomination, that the New York Mail and En-
press iii the fervor of its half breed zeal pours
out its walls upon stalwarts, in bitter burning
words, of which the following is a mild speci-
men:
''The Stalwart newspapers of the country,
whose bosses had not got the Offices they wanted
under Garfield, joined the star-routers in de
nouncing the President as the destroyer of the
Republican party 1t was this denunciation-
this cry in which the whole pack of thieves and
office hunting hounds joined-that turned
Guiteau's head and made him an assassin. il
was this state of things that led him to say: 8
am Stalwart of the Stalwarts, and to add, 8
have killed Garfield; Arthur is President, ano
the Republican party is safe.' "
When sentiments like the foregoing are
expressed from within the party, the spirit OF
faction is at its heighth, and can only
be allayed by the disappearance OF the pro-
voking cause. So long as that cause re-
mains the breach widens and the sore be-
comes very angry and incurable. 1t is not
to be expected that under this CALLING fire
Arthur will withdraw, though if not ap-
parent to him, it must be to his retainers,
as it is to all others, that his retiracy can
only quench the fires of faction and save the
party from disruption. Where the two ele-
ment have come squarely together they have
proven so implacable as to come t.
blows in New York district conventions. Ar
thur has not yet needed the warning. He is
a leech that will not voluntarily retire, ani
perhaps it is better for the country that he
takes this attitude, which only adds to tht
deeply rooted and strongly growing public
opinion that the Republican party and it;
agents and representatives must be put ou

The police court was quite dull yesterday.
There were number Of DRINKS that were
accorded the usual favor Of contributing
time or money to the treasury of the city.
The case Of Thomas Moore, colored man,
for attempted burglary, was continued and
that of Max Richlitzky for an attack on Law
renee Miller, was set for the 23d inst. The
victim of this affray is at the city hospital
and is reported as comfortable with a pros
pect of being up in a fewd avs. John Schmidt
paid S25 for the pleasure of carrying a gun
and the fellow that gave him away put up
within IS of that amount. Heathcote and
Brammer appear to be identified by John Cur

about $50, had their case continued until to-
day. Considering thatall the drinking resorts

The Choral Society.

Last night was a great one for Signor
Jannota, who had the satisfaction of direct
ing chorus of about two hundred voices, all
the four parts being well balanced. The re-
hearsal, which begun at s O'Clock, was carried
through with vigor and increasing energy
till ten O'Clock. The work upon which the
chorus labored was the great Messiah. Very
decided progress has been made with it, and
such as indicates that when it is given it will
be presented in a manner that will be quite
satisfactory. 1t is very gratifying and must
be very inspiring to Signor Jannota to see so
many in the chorus, and still more so for him
to see them take hold of the great work with
so much facility and energy. The chorus
will be still larger at the next general re-
hearsal. On Wednesday afternoon
the ladies will rehearse commencing at
4 o'clock, at which hour it is to be hoped
every lady member of the chorus will be
present. On Thursday evening next the
gentlemen will rehearse, and it is desirable
that each gentleman should be present pune
tually at the hour named. 1t must be borne
in mind that it is very important matter
now that each singer should be prompt and
do his and her duty, as the chorus is to go to
Minneapolis in June, where it will participate
in the musical festival. The Minneapolis
chorus will join with the one from st. Paul in
the great 'EHallelujah Chorus" and the St.
Paul chorus will join with Minneapolis chorus
in the Heavens are Telling" Those who
propose to join the chorus must do so i'm
mediately, as no ladies will be accepted after
Wednesday afternoon, and no gentlemen
after Thursday evening next.

ARTRUR,s SOUTHERN CAMPATGN.


Mr.. Arthur become the acting President Of
the United States through the
blood that was shed by the Republican
Office seeker who murdered Presi-
dent Garfield. AS he entered the Execu-
tive Office by means of an assassination
which his own conduct helped to bring
about, it is not unnatural that his effort to
retain the Office should be the means of she'd
ding blood. A special telegram from Macon,
Georgia, relates the bloody contest proceeding
there in the effort to secure delegates for
Arthur for the Republican National conven-
ton. Under date of April Is. the following
story is told:
''The feeling between the Arthur and anti
Arthur negroes grows in bitterness. The Gus
tom house party in Atlanta, headed by e. A.
Buckamaine, white man, and W. A. Pledger, a
negro Custom house surveyor have carried all
the district conventions for Arthur. In this city
there is large faction of negroes, headed by
jeff. Long, who are fighting the Arthur combina-
ton bitterly. Several encounters have taken
place in which razors played potent part
'Pledger made his appearance here several
days ago, hoping to unite the colored element,
but he was met by bitter opposition. Late last
night the notables of the party were in consulta-
ton When discussion arose. Pledger struck
one of the Blaine negroes, Al
len Ellentons Adams, whereupon the
latter whipped out his razor and chased
the Atlanta Custom House Surveyor all around
the room. Pledger finally made his escape by
jumping through window. When he reached
the ground he out to the woods and hid
himself
''Some time ago one of Blaine's colored apos-
ties from Richmond was seized by the Arthur
negroes with a notice to leave the town. The
notice was decorated with rudely drawn skull
and crossbones.''
Thus, in the south, as well as at the north,
the candidacy of Chester A. Arthur is pro-
ducing bad blood, and leading to stormy con-
tests. Will the people of the United States
tolerate such a man in the highest office with
in their gift, longer than the term which he
is filing out as an accidental, acting Execu-
tive

Business Falling Off.

PHILADELPHIA, April 21.-One hundred
men were discharged from the Baldwin loco
motive works on Saturday. A member of
the firm to-day said, unless other work came
in the reduction will continue until the pres
ent working force of 5000 will be reduced to
1900. The. works have been running to
their full cssgulcity for several years, and aver
aged $50 locomotives a year. The cause of
the falling off in orders, the gentleman said,
was that railroads had been carrying freight
and passengers at such low rates they are
compelled to reduce their expenses, and one
of the first places on which to retrench is the
motive power" The trunk lines, he said,
had now stopped cutting each others Threats,
and he thought that when the fall carrying
trade begins there viii be plenty of work.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator sabin,
the chairman of the National Republican
committee, has written letter to j. f. Des-
sendorf, of Virginia, explaining a certain
Photographic circular addressed to the state
committee, which was sent Dessendorf a few
days ago. 1t was so sent by mistake of a
clerk, and was not intended as a recognition
of the Dessendorf convention as the regular
Republican organization Of Virginia. In
conclusion Senator Sabin says, While

committee, will say, in my judgment, the
National Republican committee can only
recognize one convention as responsive to
its call, namely, the convention to be held in
Richmond on the 23d inst"

how to play upon them so as to secure their

stronger every day, and to make nomi-

unless Straits opponents all unite on
Clement at Faribault. If this is not done,
the nomination of Republican candidate

to be called for some time in June or July.
Such action will do more to weaken the

they fear it.

Fist LYING.

Fast living eXerts a deadly influence on
the human system. The sudden and start
ting deaths which occur, attributed to the
mysterious ''heart disease" may be due,
solely, to wrong living, "fast living" as it is
technically called, involving reckless viola
ton of the laws of health. These victims of
fast living are not always addicted to low
vices and debauchery. There are other
methods of fast living than those involved
in dissolute habits. Mental tention in any
given direction, often produces insanity and
death. Undue attention to study, to intellec-
tual pursuits, to business interests, may not
inaptly be described as fast living, for such
causes, such habits and practices tax the
vital energies hurtfully, and pave the way to
life's sudden extinction.
There are melancholy examples thus
constantly occurring. Recently inone weeks
time, three prominent men fell victims to a
line of fast living, devoted to excessive ap-
plication to business pursuits and the accu-
mutation of wealth. A New York million
aire was found dead in a hotel. He had
taken his own life. He left memorandum
to his family, stating he could not sleep, and
hence took his own life. He was driven to
insanity by the pressure of a business career.
A Massachusetts, millionaire was stricken
with apoplexy on the public street. A Mil
waukee railroad superintendent was stricken
with paralysis, away from his home and
among strangers died. The facts disclose,
that every one of thdee had fatally violated
So ILL
and suddenly died, one by his own
insane hand, the others by the
inevitable shocks produced upon
the system, as the result of overworked
brains.

inc and planning to accumulate additional
