The Burglars Clever Love.MakIng.

fSQn FRANCISCO fOsrI
II has often been said that nothing
ave business success and money
constitutes claim to social recognition
on this coast; but, as even with such
Illustrations Of that fact as the sharon
trial before them, our Eastern irienus
can hardly understand how absolute
said rule is here, we can hardly expect
the following perfectly true incident
to be believed cut of our own state:
One night not long ago the daughter
of one of our best citizens was awak-
ened by noise in her room, and, upon
sitting up discovered man disguised
| in a black mask standing beside her
bed and calmly contemplating her
features by the aid of bull's-eye Ian
tern.
"Dont be alarmed, miss he said;
81 haven't taken anything yet"
Bless mel! said the girl; II do be-
lieve it's u burglar"
"Of course IL Is" said the house
breaker, with an ungratifying smile,
as he lit cigarette. "And am proud
of It,"
"What do you want?" demanded
the young lady.
.,"Well, / did want to sample your
jewelry case,n said the robber, "but
you looked so ALTERED pretty lying
there with your auburn hair-just my
style-that 1 couldn't help waking
you to see if you also had dark eyes:
I'm terribly fond of light hair and
dark eyes, myself"
"Well, I have" said the young lady
glancing at the mirror. "But | must
look like fright in this-this dress"
"On the contrary, white is very be-
coming to YOU" said the disciple of
Jimmy Hope, tenderly. by the way
are you engaged?''
"lhat's teilin'," said the girl.

well, yes, / am-to n young law

much.n
He's poor, isn't he?"
"Oh, awfully."
Exactly; / thought as much. Now
my dear girl, don't you know there is
nothing in this love-in.a-cottage busi-
ness? You don't want to peg along
nursing babies in some stuily back

Maine.

The returns up to the hour of writing
from Maine indicate Republican ma
iority OF some $4,000 to 10000. The
returns have been sent, compared with
those of September, 1SS0-a silly mode
of comparison which only requires
little more analysis to get at the proba-
BILE result. The Blaine managers will
claim great victory. They ought to
be allowed all the encouragement they
can gather from the effect of their
great and practically rtnopposed efforts
in the State from which they have taken
their candidate. They need it for their
personal consolation, but tia. is all the
good it will do them. AS compared
with the September vote of 1876, the
last one held under normal conditions,
they ought to have had more than TO-
900 majority. The average majority
from 1860 to 1876, in September of
Presidential years, was 1880. So it
will be seen that with all their strain
ing, with the advantage of Mr.. Blaine's
appeals to State pride, with the field
substantially abandoned to them, the
Republicans have managed to hold their
own, but have not succeeded in getting
their fair share of the increased vote.
If that satisfies the managers we have
no disposition to complain.
It is plain that the election will have
but little influence on other States. 1t
gives no evidence of any such popular
ity on MIR. Biaines part in the State of
his residence as should have been eX-
pected; none such as MIR. Edmunds
would have shown in Vermont. or Mr..
Lincoln in Illinois, or Mr.. Gresham in
Indiana 1t discloses the fact that
where he should have been overwhelm-
ingly strong he is no stronger relative
ly than even Mr.. Hayes eight years ago.
The real struggle is yet to be made.
1t will not be materially affected by the
..political promenade" which the man
ayers had arranged in Maine. 1t will
be determined by forces far more po-
tent than those enlisted there, and these
forces are working steadily and strong
ly az ainst Blaine.-N. Y. Times.

An Electric Eel.

A very interesting addition has re-
Gently been made to the Geological
Gardens, in the shape of an electric eel
gynan0tus etectricXs. 1t is said to be
nearly six feet in length, and must
therefore be one of the largest speci-
mems of its kind. Those who remem Der
the palmy days of the old Polytechnic
may recollect diminutive electrical
eel which used to deal out very decided
shocks to visitors who had the temerity
to touch it, and which used to kill, or at
any rate to stun, the live fish which
were put into its tank for food. The
newcomer is altogether more
formidable fellow, and when he has had
time to recruit after the long voyage
from South America, during which he
was rather cruelty coiled in a vessel in
which he could not move without chat
ing himself raw in several places, it will
be anything but wise to venture on any
liberties with him. Humboldt, when
in the native home of this fish, in and
about the Rio Colorado, measured some
that were five feet five inches in length,
but, though the Indians said there were
larger, he himself saw none. The
captive in Regents Park is, no doubt,
therefore, very big specimen, and
there can be little doubt of it's power.
Humbol thought the Indians of the
locality referred to had exaggerated
ideas on this subject, but they no doubt
had had practical experience, while
the illustrious traveller seems to
have prudently refrained from testing
the matter except in the case of an eel
in a somewhat exhausted condition. He
admits that it would be temerity to ex-
pose ones self to the first shocks of a
large and strongly-irritated gymnotus,
and, though he does not mention any
case within his knowledge of any
human life being lost by shock from
the fish, the mode of catching them
adopted by the Indians seems to render
it by no means Incredible, that, as some
have asserted, tfis fish is capable of
killing man The Indians, it seems,
are accustomed, when they want to
catch gymnoti, to scour the country
round for wild horses and mules, which
they drive into the ponds where the fish
are known to be, and so violent are the
discharges of the pent-up ligkt1ings to
which these animals are exposed that,
though they are not actually killed by
electricity. they are SO stunned and dis
abled that usually several of them are
drowned. Humboldt once imprudent-
ly put both his feet on an electric eel
just taken out of the water; and though
he does not speak of it as a large one,
he says he never experienced from
large Leyden jar more dreadful dis
charge than he felt on that occasion.
He was affected all day with a violent
pain in every joint of his body. 1t
seems to be generally agreed that the
electric force of this fish is closely de-
pendent on its general vitality, and as
the new arrival is as yet only in COM
paratively poor condition, perhaps no
great harm would result from bodily
contact with it.-LOndon NeaDS.

POLITICAL ITEMS. /,

The way the Irish are going for
Blaine is altogether satisfactory to
Cleveland.
There will be fair yield in the
apple crop this year, but not enough to
justify hard cider campaign.
james G. Blaine recently lost his
voice, but he will never be entirely out
of danger until he loses his power of
letter-writing.
Dana is now trying to defend
Blaine from the charge OF Know-Noth-
ingism. A fellow feeling makes us
wondrous kind.
The Progress keeps reiterating
that Cleveland is in a very bad way"
Yes, he is in the Republicans way, and
anything Republican is bad.
Hon. Thaddeus C. Pound, of
Wisconsin, happily describes Blaine as
distinguished by ''sort of declamatory
and pugilistic state-craft." That is it.
He. is the great slugger of American
politics.
Logan went to Wisconsin to
check the revolt from the Republican
ticket Mrs. Partington's failure to
keep back the ocean with her mop was
nothing to the failure that awaits Lo-
gan.
The latest opinion Senator Ed
munds has expressed concerning Mr..
Blaine was a practical condemnation of
his methods as public man. He has
had an excellent opportunity to revise
that opinion, but has not chosen to do
so.
No matter who may be response
