The Mugwump newspapers, since their
retreat back to the Republican party fold,
seem to find themselves in very uneom-
Portable company. They are tainted and
ridiculed-and in return they give back
as good as they receive" They are
scolding at their loving Republican con
temporaries. They dlstrust the honesty
Of the Republican party press, and to
aggregate the unhappiness of the situa-
ton. the president has quietly refuted
their vehement but absurd declarations,
that he would be pleased to see the Dem
ocratic ticket in New York defeated. In
this situation some of them cannot pre-
serve their temper, but blurt out the most
annoying declarations. Thus the New
York Times comes down upon a num-
Der of its esteemed contemporaries of the
Republican fold-the leading lights, in
fact, of the New York and Boston Repub-
lican party press-and talks right out in
meeting. The Times says;
VIZ have always admired the calm par
tisan ~mendacity of the Troy Times. tits,
IN our opinion, a model party organ. 1t
Is everything that a newspaper should be
which has only one conviction, that all
good necessarily emanates from its W
party, all evil from the other, and one
purpose, to support the regular ticket.
The partisanship of the Troy Times is not
n bowling lunacy like that of the Cincin-
natl (ODlOie7cgdi Gozefhe IL IL mt silly
like that of the New York Tribune, and
1t has not the studied and ostentatious
meanness of the Boston Journal. II is
a partisanship that compels admiration by
its steadfastness and its contempt for all
moral and logical obstacles, for the de-
mands of pusillanimous consistency, and
for other ethical considerations such as
might tend to weaken what our Troy con-
temporary would call its party fealty.
Animated by this spirit of devotion to
party, the Troy Times may be likened to
the Scotchwomans husband, whom she
defended against slanderous insinuations
by declaring that he was Just n lynn
drunken, thievin' vagabond, with nae a
fault about him"
Perhaps this may be, to a certain class
of yacillating Republicans, a more inauen-
tial and authoritative exposition of the
character of their party press than my
thing cmanating from a Democratic
source. And so We leave them to the
enjoyment OF their repast, and wish them
a good time. May good digestion wait
On appetite, and health on both"

How Prince Loul. Napoleon Wa. Lost.

Mr.. Forbes, describing the death Of
Prince Louis Napoleon, mentions a fact
not hitherto known, which shows upon
what slight causes momentous events
sometimes hang:
The prince never got mounted at all.
His horse was FESTIVE and would not
stand. He ran by the side of the beast,
one hand holding the reins, and clutch
ing the pommel, the other in the cantle
of the saddle. Presently he was seen
by a trooper, who looked back, to let go
his grip of the saddle and fall back
ward, the horse escaping at a headlong
gallop. The trooper thought the prince
was shot, but this was not so. The
broad band of leather linking the hoist
ers and crossing the pommel of the sad
die was what his right hand had been
olutching as he stroye to spring into the
saddle. This had torn under the strain;
and so the prince had lost his grip and
fallen backward. inspected the rents
next day, and / found that the band
which had given away, was made, not
Of a sound, stout leather, but of a
wretched substance that seemed brown
paper. And so, in a sense, it was not
the Zulus that killed Louis, but the
shoddy r~ascality Of a firm Of Woolwich
saddlers.h

We're in her drawing room, alike glory in

pride alone that makes the dude adom his
buttonhole with a flower; to grow flowers

love of nature which is charming and re-

dor some time there was no sound to
BE- heard in the room but the rapid
working of the pen. Then, suddenly,
Mr.. Dickens jumped up, went to the
looking glass, rushed back to his writ
ing-table and iotted down a few words
back to the glass again, this time talk
ing TO his own reflection, or, rather,
the simulated expression he saw there
and was trying to catch before drawing
il in words; then back again to his
writing. After a little he got up again
and stood with his back to the glass,
talking softly and rapidly for a long
time, after looking at his daughter, but
certainly never seeing her; then n ce
more went. back to his table and to
steady writing until luncheon time. 1t

full thing TO see him throwing timself
so entirely out Of himself and into the

News c,uders Found on the Track

Fast freight train No. II, composed OF
fifteen cars, running on the Racine &
Southwestern division of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & ST. Paul road, was wreck
ed at Shirland, Wis. A pin loose caused
the rails to spread, sent the train of the
track and smashed several cars.
The trains from the east last evening
were all late They made short stops and
used up lots of coal and steam, but the
strong wind which blew all day retarded
their progress. Long trains find it very
difficult TO run against such blizzard
Tie cannon ball was fifteen minutes late
from Chicago, and the other two trains
over half an hour behind time.
The railroads are now carrying more
grain than for months. 1t now forms thu
greater part of the freightage being trans
ported over the different roads centering
in Chicago, and the railroads have about
as much as they can do to furnish cars
The farmers last fall made up their minds
to hold their wheat on account of the low
prices, in the hope that an advance would
be made this spring, and now they art
beginning to unload and rush the wheat
into Chicago. The late strike on the Wa
bash caused hundreds of car loads to be
side tracked all along the line. The Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific is carrying
long trains of wheat loaded cari
through, and the Chicago, Burlng
ton & Quincy main line is doing thu
same. This being branch with nc
western connection, there is but little
done in grain here by the 90, but thu
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul handles
it in considerable quantities, coming prin-
cipally from the Iowa division.

post, to hold similar one. The only
difference will be that an admission fee OF
ten cents will be charged. This is merely
a nominal sum, charged not for the pur'
pose of making money, but to keep on

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
3. I. Watkins Injured by a Runaway.
Smashup on Fort Armstrong
Avenue.

AT about "A quarter past o'clock last
evening Mr.. s. T. Watkins was coming
from Davenport in kindling wood wagon
with William Thomas, one of his team
sters, when the horses took fright at this
end of the railroad bridge and tore down
Fort Armstrong avenue, towards this city
at terrible rate, jolting and rafting the
wagon so that il seemed wonderful that
it was not shaken to pieces. Mr.. Thomas
fortunately was jerked out over the end,
and received only good shaking up, but
il was but one chance in hundred that
he was not killed, for the road is frozen
as hard as rock and is rough and IN
even, so that had he fallen on his head it
must have fractured his skull.
Mr. Watkins staid in the wagon, and
held to the lines in an unavailing effort TO
stop the team They ran madly along
until they reached the wagon bridge.
Then the wheel of the wagon struck one
of the iron supports, and the wagon
stopped with a sudden crash, which threw
Mr.. Watkins distance of several feet.
He struck the ground as though shot from
a catapalt, and was stunned by the cons
cussion Mr. John Roach, a mail car
rier, came up just as ME- Watkins was
beginning to regain his senses, and
helped the dazed and injured man into
his buggy. He drove TO the Harper house

Watkins were dressed by Dr. Cowden
Almost the whole of the skin of the right
side of his face was scraped off with mum.

quite badly. The wounds may prove very
painful for short time, but will not me-
cessarily keep him confined to the house
1t was bad fall, and Mr.. Watkins may
feel thankful that the result is no worse

track and were caught by Mr.. Burton, the

not even receive a scratch.
