Describing the White House, the
Washington correspondent of the
Cleveland Leader says: The Cabinet
room is richly furnished, and the Cabi-
net meetings are, you know. always
secret. just off of it is the library, and
when Webster was Secretary of State
it was noticed that the Cabinet meet
ings were reported in full in certain of
the newspapers. Various means were
undertaken to find out who was the
leaky member of the Cabinet, but each
member up and down denied that he
had told anything TO any one. One day
Webster excused himself and went out
into the library while the others talked
as usual. He found he could hear
every word uttered within. He camo
back and. said he thought the secret
must have gotten out through . coz.
respondent listening IN the Mhraxy.
After this the library was looked d.
ing Cabinet sessions, and the reports

SIS REWARD IS
For the Detection Of NeMspaper Thieves.

For some days many complaints have come
from GLOBE REPuBLIC subscribers. to the eff
feet that they have not received their papers,
regularly. As our carriers are, so far as we
know, faithful aud vigilant, we could not dis
cover the cause of the difficulty. Recently,
however, We have learned that certain news
BOYS are hawking our psper about the streets,
late in the afternoon or evening, for three
cents a copy. We have also just learned that
these little rascals steal the papers from the
premises of subscribers, after they
have been lett by the carriers.
Every person who sells the GLOBE
REPUELIc for three cents il thie:, tor it can
not be purchased, at that rate. at wholesale,
at CUR counting-room; and whoever is ac-
costel by any person who offers oar paper at
less than five cents should have him arrested
at once snd report the tact 10 us.
We will give s. to any one who will de-
tect and arrest the fellows who take copies
of our paper from the premises of purchasers.

Death of David Verify, from Exhaustion,

Death of David Verify, from Exhaustion,
at the Dayton Asylum.
telegram was received over the Western
Union line, from Dayton, about ten O'Clock
this forenoon, addressed to Mrs. Mary J. Ver-
ity. As no such person was known in the
city, the messenger took the despatch TO
Judge Miller, who recognized the party sd-
dressed to be the wife OF David Verify, the
lInatic, who was taken to the asylum Monday
last. The telegram proved to be from the
superintendent OF that institution announcing
that Verify died this morning and requesting
instructions as to the disposal to be made
OF the body. The family, resid
ing near Lswrenceville, was notified
by messenger sent from here and arrange
ments made for bringing the remains home
at once. The officials stated to Deputy Sher-
if A. J. Baker when he turned Verify over
to them, Monday, that the nan would die
inside of two days if he continued so violent,
as he would become utterly exhausted in that
time. beyond ability to rally, aud just that
result seems to have come about. Verify

top OF his voice and was in constant and vio-
lent motion Deceased was about 55 years OF
age and leaves a family of three or four
adult children. He was possessed OF a COM

A Hearty Indorsement.

The well-known success of the Home
Steam Laundry is a tribute to pluck and en-
terprise. MarshallIk Co. came to Springfield
three years ago and undertook to build up a
laundry business on the ruins of the failure of
several predecessors. Almost all the laundry
work of the city was then being sent to ether
towns and the impression prevailed that first
class work could not be done here. The difficult
ty experienced in securing skilful help operated
largely against the new enterprise. By meet
ing obstacles and overcoming them, ny con-
stantly devising methods TO improve the
quality OF work done, and by striving TO
oblige all classes of patrons, Messrs. Marshall
l. Co. have steadily extended their business
and enlarged their facilities to meet increas-
ing demands, until the Home Steam Laundry
is now one OF the best in the country.
Equipped with all the latest improved
machinery and employing skillful and ex-
perienced operators, Marshall 4 Co. deserve
the most generous patronage of our citizens
for their ceaseless efforts to establish a first
class laundry in our city, giving employment
to q number of persons, and for their patience
and perseverance under such discouragements
as had caused others to fail
We, the undesigned, customers of Marshall
l. Co., heartily endorse all of the above
statements.

Mr.. A. Il. Ludlow withdraws from the
Prohibition Ticket.
The intimstion thrown out in last even
ing's GLOBE REPUBLIC that Mr.. A. R. Ludlow
had declined the Prohibition nomination for
Mayor was confirmed upon the meeting Of
the executive committee OF that political party
held the same evening in Wilber Colvin's law
office, MIR. Colvin, chairman of the committee,
in the chair. The secretary, E. o. Stuart,
read the following communication, convey

Prohibition Club-Dear Brother: most re-
spectfully decline the nomination for Mayor
OF the city OF Springfield. rendered me by the
Prohibition convention on the 5th inst.
Respectfully, A. R. LUDLOW.
The situation was discussed at some length
by the committee and several names were
suggested for the vacancy on the ticket, those
principally considered being R. S. Thompson
and DR.. A. A. Bake. Mr.. Thompson was
finally made the nominee by a unanimous
vote. He was seen this morning by members
OF the committee, and accepts the nomina-
ton. The nominee is editor and publisher OF
the Farmers Advance and Farm Economist,
and author of several volumes on farming
topics. 1t is expected he will make strong
run among the Granger element in the sew
eral wards OF the city.
Several appointments on the Central Com
mittee, arranged for at the convention last
week, were agreed upon, but the list was
not completed.

EDITOR HERALD:-That is mere
truism. Why do some assert the con-
trary and say, Prohibition does not pro-
hibit? Because bubble seems easy.
In the first, it is understood that the sale
of intoxicating liquors is forbidden. In
the negative assertion, the word pro-
hib1 is used in the sense of prevent Let
words be used according to their true
meaning. Temperance men need not
say, Prohibition sometimes prohibits.
Say, 1t has lessened the crime of the
liquor traffic, and in doing this it has
lessened the commission of those crimes
of which that business is the source.
Laws against theft and other crimes
do not wholly prevent those crimes.
Shall we have no laws against crime?
Or shall we regulate it by license? Is
the absurdity too evident? Why, then,
license that which is the cause or source
of the unlicensed crimes that must be
punished? Liquor drinking makes the
Sums of great cities, and the horrible
condition of mankind in the slums. :"
Prohibition strikes at the source of
crime, always forbidding, as all laws
against crime forbid crime. If some
times unsuccessful in preventing, it is
for the same reason that there are other
criminals; disregard of good laws.
