There a n God In Israel indeed. The
most nome utous and sfupcndous struggle
in the annals OF American politics ends IN
the cIecron Of Grover Cleveland ana
Thsmas A. Hendricks as President aad
ce.Presideut Of the United States. Attsr
twenty.sour years Of wandering In the
Wilderness and bowling down 10 strange
gods tue American people have returned
20 the democracy Of their fathers and
again in,rusted to that great party
the control OF their destinies. We
need not now recount the tremendous
odds against which this magnificent victo-
ry has heen won. This /. the hour Tor re.
joicing, not for criticism Of the methods OF
q fallen foe. The crime Of 1907 IL
avenged. The party which was It's author
Is driven IN disgrace out OF power, aud the
"old ticket" by legitimate succession, II az
last TO have It's own. BY our count Cleye-
land and Hendricks will have 2l9 votes in
the Electoral College, 20 lS2 for Blaine and
Logan. At the hour OF writing we are not
without hope that even Massachusetts, and
Wisconsin viii also fall into line. But We
do not need them. The game of 1857
will not be again played. Its perpetrators
dare not try II. Cleveland and Hendricks
are elected, and they will be duly inaugu-
rated.
MORE A DELIvgRANCE THAN A VICTORY.
Newark Press, Democratic.I
II IL not so much victory as deliver
ance. The tight for the election Of Grover
Cleveland to the presidency OF this great
nation was not fight for conquest or for
spoils. IL was fight for honest govern
ment. The election OF Grover Clsvehnd is
the triumph Of patriotism over yenality and
corruption. II is not triumph OF party.
The progress OF the campaign and the re-
sult at the polls showed clearly thai Grover
Cleveland, supported by his party alone,
could not have achieved success. II was
because his character and his record in-
spired the confidence OF the independent
sentiment Of the country that his election
was possible. IL was because thousands OF
patriotic and independent voters every
where rallied TO his standard that bis elee-
ton has become an assured fact.

The Power ut Rome.

The Vatican, taking for granted
that Scripture Gncluding the Cos
pels) will not be read, is admirably
condescending in other ways. There
is no religious literary trash which
it will not recommend and even
enrich with indulgences.
But among all this heap you will
hardly be able to pick out one that
speaks of Jesus Christ. : + Hence
it follows that the Protestants, espe-
cially in England, despite the &C.
centricities Of private judgment, pre-
serving, as they do, both among
clergy and people the study of
Scripture, especially the New Testa-
ment, are less ignorant of the sover-
eign object of our faith than the
Catholics. Hence also arises that
deplorable severance between relig-
ion and morals which we have to
bewail to-day. + No reform is
really possible in the Church of
Rome till the Vatican itself ch9nges.
"Pel centralismo gnasta tutto col
centro." A pedantic and monoton-
Gus Journalism reigns at the head of
affairs, and so jealous is the Vatican
of a higher standard that it positive
ly discourages those who attempt to
live up to one. A young clergyman
who succeeds an infncient priest is
actually advised not to trouble him
self too much with preaching, sick
visiting, and the like; = 1T
would be a tacit reproach to his
predecessor.

The Doing or a Maniac.

A Shartlesville PA dispatch to
the New York Tribune of June ID
Gays: Joel Brensinger, aged 40, lu-
natic who escaped from the home of
his father in Schuylkill county, pas
sed through this place this afternoon
He went TO the residence of Mahlon
Spangler at IL o'clock last night and
attempted to enter the house by
force. When he found that he could
not enter he became frantic with rage
destroying fences and trees, and
killed a large number of chickens.
He was driven away by the firing of
a pistol. This morning he entered
the house of Emanuel Long. Mrs.
Long being the only person at home
became frightened ard gave the
alarm to the neighbors. They col
lected and tried to capture the wild
man, but without avail. He fought
savagely. He was coyered with
blood from an injury received while
passing through the wood. He en-
tered several of the houses this af-
terpoon, and tried to break any
thing that came in his way.
Last evening he broke into the
wagon shed of Charles kaufman, and
with hatchet that was found de-
stroyed two valuable wagons, be-
sides chopping up lot Of walnut
timber. At the house of John
Lestz he entered the kitchen and
broke all the dishes. Great efforts
were made to capture him by the
farmers through whose land he went
to no purpose.
Brensinger is of muscular build,
possesses the strength of four men
and weighs 200 pounds. His ia
ther had him confined in an out
for some wears. Tonight
a report from Centreport states that
the lunatic is surrounded in the
woods near that place, and that an
effort will be made to capture him.

War in the SOudan.
BY MISS EVA HOLT.

Tread before the EglestOn Lyceum, Egleston
Square. Boston Mass, Mar. 10
The SOudan is vast region of unde
fined limits in Central Africa, peOpled
by wild and warlike tribes. The three
causes of the war are, first, the out
rageous expressions and exactions Of
the Khedives second, the uprising of
the slave traders third, the fanaticism
of Islamism.
FL Mahdi's revolt dates back as far
as July, 1881, when he commenced his
operations against the Egyptians. He
! claims he is the long looked-for Mes
| siah of the Mohammedans, and from
| this he has been nicknamed the 'False
Prophet"
But this is not the cause of the war
it is more of political than a religious
war, and the direct cause is the sup
preston of the slave trade by Egypt
The time when FL Mahdi commenced
his revolt was when Arab and hi
soldiers began to be riotous, and th'
Khedive's power was SO weak that h'
could not attend to foreign war.
, In June 1882, riot occurred at Alex
andria in Egypt, and during the sam
month FL Mahdi massacred force Il
six Thousand Egyptians but in An
gust he was defeated at Bara, while i
September he was three times repulse

Old errors are hard to kill, but a
brighter day is swiftly coming when
Italy shall give up the rusty keys of
Peter for the sword of the spirit of
God, and exchange her musty, mutter-
ing saints for new and living men in
Christ Jesus our Lord. Not all pro-
gress is found in the new world. Let

They tell Il pretty good story ut the
expense of Edward A. SOwles, who
has just now attained nOtOriety that
must be painful to Il modest young
man. When he was Il director in the
Vermont and Canada railroad company
some legal question came up and he
remarked to Il brother director that he
had some ideas on the subject which
he would like to write ont, and read
ut the next meeting of the directors
to which the brother directors scnten-
tioUs reply was 'Fire away -
The meeting came off and Mr.. SOwlcs
ambled in, followed by colored man
dragging along an enormous gripsack

seldom seen except on the negro min

agined that Mr.. Sowles was going,
with his accustomed liberality, to set
'em up on peck of Vermont apples

adjourned to dinner and on reassem-

read and read But as all things earth
" must have an end, so did Mr.. Sowles'
reading-but the directors are said to
have been the most demOralized lot of
railroad magnates that ever sat around
green table. Hon. +. X. Hard Of
Burlington was one of the guests at

"By way of White River Junction.
replied Mr.. Sowlcs.
E'Yes, of course" said Mr.. Hard
"you couldn't go by way of Fitch

''Ies are you ?"

'-"Ges; brought up hundred head

''I brought hogs"
And so the conversation ran on until
just before the train reached MENDOZA,
and the two old farmers were right
well acquainted. Presently another
man who looked like Il merchant. came
in, and was surprised to see one of the
farmers.
''Well, WE'LL. we'll" said the new
man. ''Fm glad to see you: maybe
you can help me out of little embar-
rassing trouble. want to pay a man

"Certainly, Pm glad to do it," and
-0nt came the farmers pocket book.
But, alas, he had only forty dollars IN
small bills, and beautiful crisp $500
you're perfectly welcome to the
forty dollars if that'll help you out,
or to the $500 bill if you can get it
broken
perhaps your friend can help us
out; the forty dollars would hardly
answer" said the merchant, and then
lie apologized for making SO much
trouble.
"WeIl,' softly said the other farmer,
who, until now had been silently look
ing on, IL can't change $500 bill, but
| can give you another one for it, and
| think it came out of the same batch
and was printed on the same press"
And then turning to the other old far
mer, he added: ''If your partner hadn't
come just as he did, mine would have
been here in minute. Eve been get
ting ready to work you on the same
game ever since we left Chicago"
